On the road leading to Jade Creek Village, the ox cart clatter forward. It was driven by an old man in a hat, who was fifty years old. He had wrinkles in the corners of his eyes. He hummed a leisurely song that echoed with the sound of the rolling wheels.
The leaves rustled. The ox cart drove through the woods. The leaves fell, and from time to time, they would fall on the people below. Instead the ox cart sat a beautiful young woman dressed in red. Her clean and pale fingers picked up the leaves that had fallen on her body, and she threw them out of the cart.
This young woman was beautiful, but in the hints of her eyebrows and eyes, there was despair. Although her clothes were beautiful, they were covered with a trace of dust. If one looked closely, they could tell the clothes were a bit old.
The ox cart stopped at the entrance of the village. The young woman paid the uncle, lifted her skirt and slowly got off the cart. Although she was a little flustered and depressed, she still carefully arranged her clothes.
She stroked her long hair with her fingers in a charming way. Her eyes widened to carefully identify the situation in Jade Creek Village. She hadn’t returned to this place in over five years.
The young woman followed her memories from five years ago and identified the roads. She looked for her target within the houses of Jade Creek Village. She was wearing a pair of embroidered shoes, and she had to be careful when stepping in the mud. The tips of her shoes were suddenly stained with a touch of mud. She frowned and stomped her feet.
“What a terrible mess.”
She complained a few times, then continued walking forward. The more she walked, the more suspicious the young woman’s heart became. This Jade Creek Village…it had only been five years, so how could it have changed so much?
In the past, those poor villagers all wore shabby clothes with sad expressions. They all barely had enough to eat. But now, looking at the people who passed, their clothes were clean and neat. Their faces weren’t shallow from hunger. Could these be the rich people from the village?
However, she still had an impression of the guy who’d just walked past. He was a widow with an old mother at home. He had no land or property. He was very poor. Now he was clean and standing tall. There were no patches on his clothes. Strange, how did he become rich?
The young woman walked the road and finally saw the courtyard she was looking for, but this… The courtyard was dilapidated. The vegetable patch in front of the door was also barren and weedy. What’s going on? Was there no one living here?
“Lin Lixuan?” “Auntie Zhao?” The young woman looked through the courtyard. AS she looked, she called the owner’s name.
“Oh, it’s you?” At this moment, a Shuang’er passed by and saw her. The young woman’s back was quite familiar, as if she was an acquaintance, but she couldn’t remember from where. Did their village have a woman like her?
When the young woman heard the voice, she looked back. It was a Shuang’er in their twenties. He was already married and was the same age as her. He wore a green coat and had small eyes and a big nose. He had a mole on his nose. “Liu Tiao’Er?”
“Are you…Shen Youyun?” Liu Tiao’Er saw the young woman’s face and couldn’t help but be surprised. The young woman in front of him was the thunderous figure from Jade Creek Village.
The younger generation might not recognize her, but Liu Tiao’Er knew the woman in front of him. She was the one who caused a huge incident five years ago.
This young woman tore up a marriage contract, causing the only Xiucai in the village to try and commit suicide by throwing himself into the river. He later became a fool after being saved.
This Shen Youyun was Lin Lixuan’s ex-fiancee, who betrayed the marriage contract five years ago and married the son of a county magistrate of a neighboring county.
Back then, she caused Lin Lixuan to jump into a river and lose his mind. The people in the village talked about it. Zhao Liniang was a strong mother, who refused to hear any bad talk within the village. She was like a mad dog, biting at anyone she caught saying those things, so gradually, no one dared mention Shen Youyun’s name anymore.
Liu Tiao’Er wondered what she was doing back in Jade Creek Village after marrying into the neighboring county town.
Why are you back in our village?”
Shen Youyun reluctantly smiled and blankly blinked at Liu Tiao’Er. “I…I have to find Lixuan. Why isn’t anyone home?”
Heh. The woman in front of him had the shame to find the Lin family. Liu Tiao’Er pointed in the distance. “That’s the Lin family’s new house. It’s the big courtyard over there. Do you see the white tile wall?”
“They moved?” Shen Youyun’s mouth hung in surprise. She looked at the place Liu Tiao’Er pointed at and the white wall… Was it a newly built house? Looking from a distance, wasn’t it magnificent? Where did the Lin family get the money to live in that house?
“That’s right,” Liu Tiao’Er confirmed what the other party heard was correct, then said in a somewhat envious tone, “Don’t you know? The current Xiucai Lin has become Boss Lin. He’s earned mountains of piles of gold and silver and became the richest man in our village. He also opened a shop in the county town. Also, do you see that mountain? He owns it.”
After Liu Tiao’Er said this, he added in his heart: How about it? Isn’t he better than that son of the county town?
If she hadn’t broken the marriage contract back then, then everything Ger Yan now enjoyed would have been hers.
“Their family… Became the richest?” Shen Youyun repeated in disbelief. At the same time, she also inexplicably felt a trace of joy and expectation in her heart.
Lin Lixuan saw through the other party’s joy and excitement. He was puzzled. The Lin family had developed, so what did Shen Youyun have to be happy about? Could she be feeling bad about causing harm to Lin Lixuan in the past?
“Is he married?” Shen Youyun asked with some trembling.
“Five years have passed. Of course he’s married. He married the most beautiful Shuang’er in our village.” When talking about the most beautiful Shuang’er, Liu Tiao’Er’s emphasized those words with a mix of mockery.
“Who?”
“Ger Yan< Ji Yan.”
“Oh, him. Do they have a child?”
“No.”
Shen Youyun breathed a sigh of relief and muttered, “It’s good they don’t have any. It’s good they don’t have any.” This was god helping her. How could a childless Shuang’er compare to her? The Lin family was now developed. Lin Lixuan would be infatuated with her again. How could she be afraid of not having a good life then?
“What did you say?” Liu Tiao’Er vaguely heard her low mutters. What did it mean it was good they didn’t have? Could it be that like himself, she didn’t expect Ger Yan to give Lin Lixuan a child? “Perhaps you want to?”
Shen Youyun smiled charmingly at Liu Tiao’Er. She raised her hand to fix her hair. Her movements were gentle and affectionate. She showed her charms to Shen Youyun in front of her.
“You and your…” Liu Tiao’Er suddenly remembered at this time that the county magistrate of Shen Youyun had been dismissed. The relatives of the thieving county magistrate did not have good endings either. Shen Youyun disliked the poor and loved the rich. She married the son of a county magistrate, but now…it didn’t end well.
“I am already divorced. I’m single now.” Shen Youyun smiled brightly at Liu Tiao’Er. She was obviously saying things that weren’t very good, but she didn’t look the slightest ashamed.
Shen Youyun was also forced to return to Jade Creek Village. After getting married five years ago, she was used to living the good life. Now, her husband’s family was in a downturn. Their family used to boss people around and look down on them. Now they were down and out very and couldn’t even compare to the ordinary people of the county town. Everyone mocked them and couldn’t wait to drag her down.
Shen Youyun was almost driven mad. She really couldn’t stand it another day. Her wretched husband had no ability. After losing the protection of the county magistrate, he couldn’t achieve anything. He only knew how to have fun, get drunk. He scolded her and accused her. Shen Youyun couldn’t bear to live with this person any longer.
Shen Youyun thought this way. Her husband also thought this way. This woman who hated the poor and loved the rich and only knew how to compare was the star of disaster. After being married for five years, she only gave birth to two daughters for him and couldn’t give birth to a son. She even dared to nag at him all day long. After being married for five years, even if she was beautiful, he was tired of playing with her. It just so happened he met a new girl, so he took a break and changed to a new wife.
Shen Youyun was forced to go back to her parents’ house. Her family disliked her and wanted to marry her off to an old man. Shen Youyun didn’t agree, and in desperation, she remembered Lin Lixuan, who she’d abandoned.
Back then, Lin Lixuan loved her to death. He was even willing to seek death for her. If she told him her current situation, with his feelings for her, would he let her marry a bad old man?
When the marriage contract was made, she and Lin Lixuan were in love. Shen Youyun really liked Lin Lixuan. If it wasn’t for the fact that the Lin family was too poor, and Xiucai Lin was a pedantic scholar, Shen Youyun would not have chosen to marry someone else.
After marrying, Shen Youyun occasionally married the days she got along with Lin Lixuan for the first two years. But she didn’t regret marrying. Before she was abandoned and forced to go home, she had always thought she made the right choice and that Lin Lixuan wouldn’t have been able to give her the life she wanted.
After being abandoned, Shen Youyun recalled Lin Lixuan’s deep affection for her. The feelings she’d buried resurfaced again. She believed that after so many years, Xiucai Lin must still hold affection for her.
Shen Youyun returned to Jade Creek Village in an ox cart with excitement, hoping to get back with him. She…she was willing to live a hard life with Xiucai Lin. Lin Lixuan was highly educated. If she stayed with him, he might become an official in the future. When the time comes, wouldn’t Shen Youyun live the good life again?
Coming to Jade Creek Village, she was very pleased with the news she learned. At first, she only knew that Lin Lixuan had regained his clarity two years ago, but now she knew he was also a rich man… As long as she was with him again, Shen Youyun could spend money as she wished.
So what if Lin Lixuan was married? A Shuang’er who couldn’t even get pregnant, could he compare to her?
This lady is delusional to the max!!!! Begone!
