"Shi Chu, where is your brother? Why didn't I see him today?" As soon as Shi Chu walked out of the house, he was stopped by a young woman with a flattering smile on her face.
"Brother has gone up the mountain, is there anything I can do for you?" Zhao Shichu asked Wen Yishu calmly.
Wen Yishu was not frightened by her cold attitude at all. She still smiled at Zhao Shichu in a good mood. While smiling, she took out a few candies from her pocket and said, "This is the candy my family sent me. It's very sweet. I want your brother... you two siblings to have some sweetness..."
As she said this, she stuffed the candies into Zhao Shichu's hands. Zhao Shichu dodged her hands and refused, saying, "You should keep these precious candies for yourself. My brother and I cannot accept them."
"It's not precious, it's not precious. My family will send you more after you finish them. Don't refuse." Wen Yishu was determined to use candies to please Zhao Shichu and his sister. In the end, Zhao Shichu couldn't refuse her "kindness" and accepted the candies.
After delivering the candies, Wen Yishu chatted with Zhao Shichu for a few more words, and after finding out the approximate time Zhao Shijian would return from the mountain, she left.
Zhao Shichu looked at her excited back as she left and sighed. Wen Yishu has been reborn now, so she took the initiative to come to please him.
In Wen Yishu's life before she was reborn, she was unable to adapt to the hard labor in the countryside and could not support herself after going to the countryside. The hope of returning to the city was slim and out of reach, so she had to find a strong rural man who could earn full work points to be her husband so that she could escape the heavy labor that made her desperate.
And the rural man she found was the original owner Zhao Shichu's elder brother Zhao Shijian.
Zhao Shijian was hardworking and capable, and he had only one younger sister, so he lived a good life in the village. Although he had no parents or brothers to help him, he alone was as strong as two laborers in other families, so many families in the village wanted to marry their daughters to him.
If it weren't for Wen Yishu's plan, Zhao Shijian would probably have found a girl from the same poor peasant family in the village. Although there would be no passion or romance, they would have been able to have children and live a peaceful and smooth life.
But unfortunately, he met Wen Yishu, an intellectual young man from the city. She was fair-skinned and gentle, which was in sharp contrast to the village girls who were born and raised in the countryside and were always covered in dust. Therefore, although she could not do much work, she was very popular among the young men in the village, and those young men would take the initiative to do work for her.
However, the young men's mothers did not like such delicate girls who could not work, so soon, the young men who tried to please Wen Yishu and took the initiative to help her with work were taken away by their mothers by grabbing their ears.
Without the help of her suitors, Wen Yishu had no choice but to take the initiative to find a man she could rely on. After choosing among the educated youth and young men in the village, Zhao Shijian, a man who was a good worker and had no parents, caught her eye.
So she began to actively "run into" Zhao Shichu, and "crying quietly" wherever he passed by, expressing her longing for her family and the sadness of not being able to adapt after going to the countryside...
After a few interactions, Zhao Shijian couldn't help but feel pity for the "poor" girl. He slowly began to pay attention to her. When he saw how frail and tired she looked while working, he gradually developed a desire to protect her.
In this way, the simple and honest Zhao Shijian was no match for Wen Yishu, who was trying to seduce her, and was soon captured by Wen Yishu.
After marrying Zhao Shijian, Wen Yishu really lived a good life without having to work. Zhao Shijian loved her very much and was reluctant to let her work hard, so she lived a very good life after marriage.
A year after her marriage, she gave birth to her son, Zhao Qing. But when the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination came the following year, she was no longer satisfied with her life and wanted to go to university and return to the city.
Zhao Shijian did not stop her, and even helped her find a lot of books so that she could review with peace of mind. But even so, she did not pass the exam.
Originally, this wouldn’t have been a big deal, as she could have taken the exam a second time. But I don’t know what she was thinking, since she failed the first time, she didn’t take the exam a second time.
Zhao Shijian thought that she had given up the opportunity to return to the city and stayed in the village, so he was very happy and treated her better.
But in fact, Wen Yishu never gave up on returning to the city. She just didn't take the exam a second time because she knew it was impossible for her to be admitted to university with her level of knowledge after taking the exam once. But she has been waiting for the opportunity to return to the city.
Finally, hard work pays off. Three years after the resumption of the college entrance examination, the control over the educated youth was not as strict both in the village and in the city. One day, Wen Yishu suddenly left without saying goodbye and ran away with all the family savings.
This was like a bolt from the blue for Zhao Shijian. He didn't understand why his wife ran away when they were living a good life together. If she wanted to return to the city, there were other ways besides taking the college entrance examination.
Zhao Shijian wanted to go to the city to find Wen Yishu, but he discovered at that time that Wen Yishu did not tell him the specific address of her parents' home, so he didn't even know where to go. He realized that Wen Yishu had been on guard against him from the beginning and had never thought of spending her whole life with him. She just wanted to find a temporary support and get rid of the heavy physical labor, so she married him.
Zhao Shijian suffered a great blow after realizing all this, but he had to be strong for his son. His son had already lost his mother, and it would be really pitiful if his father didn't stand up for him.
So he picked himself up and started learning how to do business in order to provide his son with good living conditions. He began by setting up a stall and worked his way up to become one of the top entrepreneurs in the city. By the time his son graduated from college, he had become a well-known tycoon in the neighborhood.
After Wen Yishu abandoned her husband and children and fled back to the city with all the family property, she did not live the good life she had imagined. She had no job and was despised by her parents, brothers and sisters-in-law and was treated like a freeloader. She could not stand this and had to find a man to marry as soon as possible.
But her luck in finding a man this time was not as good as the first time. She found a man who was a bully at home. Outside, he was a good man with a mild temper and a kind heart, but at home, he became a vicious wolf with a bad temper and would beat people when he was drunk.
Not only did Wen Yishu have to find ways to do odd jobs to supplement the family income every day, she also had to do all the housework and get beaten from time to time. Her life was miserable, even worse than when she first lived in the village.
She had regretted it a long time ago, but it was no use regretting because this time she was not getting married in the countryside thousands of miles away, and all her relatives and friends knew about it. She had nowhere to go even if she wanted to escape. It was impossible for her to run away like she did last time and no one would know about her past.
Therefore, she could only live in such agony. If nothing unexpected happened, she could still barely get by. But one day, she saw an introduction of a young and promising entrepreneur on TV. His name was Zhao Qing and his father was Zhao Shijian. When introducing Zhao Shijian, the TV also gave a photo. The man in the photo was the ex-husband who was abandoned by Wen Yishu!
