When Third Grandma Xu entered the house, she happened to see her second son and her Second Daughter-in-law holding hands. They were both about 40 years old, but they were as warm as a newlywed couple. Third Grandma Xu felt a little embarrassed.
However, when she thought about how her son used to be so unromantic and how he changed for the better under her earnest teaching, Third Grandma Xu felt a little proud.
“Mom, we’ll be there soon.”
Kuang Aijun was just about to talk to his wife when he was interrupted.
“Okay, there is no soy sauce at home. I have to go to the agency to buy some soy sauce back.”
Holding the soy sauce bottle in her hand, Third Grandma Xu told Kuang Aijun to take Ah Wu there quickly.
On the way back, Ah Wu met Jin Qiaoqiao.
“Ye Wu, can I talk to you?”
Jin Qiaoqiao told herself to calm down, but when she saw Ye Wu, she couldn’t help but feel jealous.
Twelve years had passed, but Ye Wu was not much different from what she was.
The woman, who was nearly forty years old, did not have a single fine line on her face. She was still as pretty and gentle, less immature, and more charming with the accumulation of time.
She was wearing a short-sleeved, square-necked, knee-length dress that was slightly tightened at the waist, which was not exaggerated but highlighted her perfect figure. The length of the dress was just at the calf level.
She was wearing a pair of brown high-heeled leather shoes, revealing her slender ankles and a section of slender calves.
Jin Qiaoqiao didn’t see a piece of expensive jewelry on her, but everything about this woman showed that she lived a rich and beautiful life.
Unlike her, wrinkles had appeared at the corners of her eyes, her fingers had become rough from years of housework, and the large areas of freckles on her cheeks caused by pregnancy could not be removed by any amount of ointment.
When she came to see Ye Wu today, Jin Qiaoqiao had already put on her best clothes and her most expensive gold earrings, which were bought for her by Zhang Youdong last year.
That time, he caught a group of second-rate people who went to the food factory to steal and was slightly injured for this. The factory rewarded him with 200 yuan.
When Jin Qiaoqiao didn’t know, Zhang Youdong spent more than 100 yuan to buy her a pair of gold earrings. Jin Qiaoqiao thought that he also knew that she had suffered a lot of grievances in the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law issue, so this was the compensation he gave her.
Before leaving, Jin Qiaoqiao was full of confidence, but when facing Ah Wu’s broad and deep eyes, she felt as ridiculous as a clown.
“Aijun, you go back first. I’ll be there soon.”
Ah Wu nodded and pushed her husband beside her.
“Okay, then hurry up.”
Kuang Aijun had long forgotten Jin Qiaoqiao. He squeezed Ah Wu’s hand and walked toward his parents and Eldest Brother’s house.
Jin Qiaoqiao’s eyes followed Kuang Aijun’s back.
More than ten years had passed, and this man had become more calm and resolute. He used to be a sword out of its sheath, showing his sharp edge, but now he could control his momentum freely and became more charming.
This man was her husband in her previous life. If she hadn’t been so smart after her rebirth, would he still be her husband?
It was hard for Jin Qiaoqiao not to think this way, but as these thoughts came to mind, her current husband Zhang Youdong and her smart and sensible daughter Zhang Shengnan appeared, and Jin Qiaoqiao felt extremely guilty again.
“I envy you very much.”
Jin Qiaoqiao retracted her gaze, looked at Ye Wu, and said, “You know, I had a dream. In that dream, Zhang Youdong was your husband, and you and he had four sons. Kuang Aijun was my husband, but in that dream, he died fifteen years ago.”
Unlike Kuang Aiguo in this world, he came back in the third year after he should have been ‘sacrificed’ twelve years ago.
Jin Qiaoqiao didn’t know why she came to find Ye Wu and said these words. Perhaps she was still a little upset.
She was obviously the lucky one who was reborn, but her life was not as smooth as the protagonist’s.
“What a coincidence. I also had a similar dream.”
Ah Wu and Jin Qiaoqiao walked to the stream. Standing in that quiet and deserted place, Ah Wu chuckled.
“In that dream, you didn’t live a good life in the second half of your life. Then you were reborn and returned to the turning point of your life. You chose to marry Ye Wu’s husband.”
Jin Qiaoqiao’s pupils suddenly dilated. She looked at Ah Wu in shock, her lips trembling, and she couldn’t speak at all.
“You, you…”
Jin Qiaoqiao’s throat was dry, and her heart was beating so fast that she felt it was about to explode.
Ye Wu knew. She knew that she was reborn and knew that she had taken her husband away?
At this time, Jin Qiaoqiao’s thoughts were already in a mess. She couldn’t tell the difference between reality and fantasy. She didn’t know how to explain her behavior of snatching someone else’s husband.
Perhaps she was too surprised, so Jin Qiaoqiao ignored the strangeness in Ah Wu’s words.
She said that she snatched Ye Wu’s husband, but Ye Wu was her, why didn’t she just use ‘my’ instead?
“I didn’t mean it.”
Jin Qiaoqiao felt as if all the air around her was being sucked away. She was almost suffocated by embarrassment. After a long while, she finally said these words with difficulty.
