Chapter 205 My Husband Stole My Notice
Chapter 205 My Husband Stole My Notice
In front of the hospital bed, Lu Jingshen said to Da Yuanzhong, "It's been 40 years. I've been with you for 40 years. I've finally paid off the debt I owed you for stealing your admission letter."
Then he said to his children, "After I die, my estate will be divided into three parts. You two and Aunt Bai will each get one part." After that, he passed away.
Da Yuanzhong was trembling all over. It turned out that he didn't fail the college entrance examination, but the admission letter was given to him by Lu Jingshen, his white moonlight.
For 40 years, for the sake of this family, he has turned gray early, doing housework, respecting his parents-in-law, taking care of his younger siblings, raising his children, helping them to get married and start their own families, and raising his grandchildren. In the end, he has gained nothing in his life!
When I get angry, I end up getting myself angry.
Her children took good care of Bai Jiaojiao according to their father's will, and buried the two of them together after her death.
There was only one person, lying in some corner of the world. No one cared.
"I can't accept this! I want revenge!"
"As you wish!" After saying that, Sheng Jiang disappeared.
……
This year was the first year of the resumption of the college entrance examination. Da Yuanzhong and Lu Jingshen applied at the same time. Bai Jiaojiao was an educated youth from the city, and her academic performance was not very good.
But Bai Jiaojiao was very pretty and fair-skinned, and her delicate appearance quickly attracted Lu Jingshen. So he planned to steal the admission letter from Dayuan Middle School and give it to Bai Jiaojiao.
Bai Jiaojiao wasn't valued at home, otherwise they wouldn't have sent her to the countryside. They even said they wouldn't let her go back unless she passed college.
After the college entrance examination, Sheng Jiang directly changed the name of the notice that the postman was going to deliver.
This postman is seriously ill. In his previous life, he clearly mentioned Da Yuanzhong's notice. Lu Jingshen intercepted him and said that Da Yuanzhong was his fiancée and could pass it on. The postman believed him.
In fact, the rules were very strict in those days. The postman would not give such an important item to anyone unless he saw the person in person. If any damage was caused, he would be held responsible.
So Sheng Jiang secretly took out the two admission letters. One was her own, and the other was Lu Jingshen's. Sheng Jiang changed his name to that of the village chief's son, Kaohsiung Fei, and told him not to tell anyone else about his admission to university.
Kaohsiung Fei Middle School is also very good, just a little bit worse than Dayuan Middle School. In my previous life, I repeated a year and got into a good school.
The Lu family bullies the weak and fears the strong, and they bully the Da family all day long. Does the village chief dare to provoke him?
Lu Jingshen waited and waited, but no notice came. Worried, he ran to the town post office to ask.
Sheng Jiang thought that school had not started yet, so to avoid him making a fuss, she gave him a psychological hint that she had already received the admission letter.
"Ayuan, have you received the notice?" Lu Jingshen asked.
"No, what's wrong?"
"That's right," Lu Jingshen breathed a sigh of relief. "You're such a bad student, how could you possibly be better than Jiaojiao?"
"Yes, your Jiaojiao is the best. She can do anything. Okay? Get out of the way! I need to go to the fields to earn work points."
"you!"
Lu Jing took a deep breath and said, "Since we grew up together, if you earn work points for Jiaojiao, I can consider marrying you even if I go to college in the future."
Sheng Jiang put down his hoe, picked up a stick from the ground, and started to hit Lu Jingshen. "Fuck you, are you such a hot commodity? Who the hell would want to marry you? Stop flattering yourself!"
She beat Lu Jingshen until he cried out, "You're crazy! You bitch, I curse you to never get married in this life!"
Ginger's eyes lit up: "Is there such a good thing?"
At the same time, he hit her harder and beat her more vigorously. During this period of beating, Lu Jingshen would run around her whenever he saw her.
Lu Jingshen was injured, so there was no one to help Bai Jiaojiao with the work. The Lu family also had an old mother in poor health, a younger sister, and a younger brother, most of whom were only twelve or thirteen years old, and they were not in a position to help Bai Jiaojiao with the work.
Back then, the primary criteria for finding a wife in the countryside was that she was capable, hardworking, and strong. Earning more work points meant getting more food to support the family. Women like Bai Jiaojiao, frail and unable to take care of themselves, were definitely not considered.
Bai Jiaojiao had no other choice but to look for other people to work for her. The educated youth were all from the city and didn't care about people like her.
Bai Jiaojiao feels that she has lost a lot of weight recently. She doesn’t get enough food every day and looks pale and thin all day long.
When Lu Jingshen saw her again, he felt so distressed that he ignored his family and helped her with work every day.
This made the Lu family very unhappy. Mother Lu often yelled at Bai Jiaojiao, and even the Lu brothers and sisters would make faces and spit at her.
Bai Jiaojiao was so angry that she stamped her feet: Humph! When I return to the city, I will teach you a lesson sooner or later!
Mother Lu even ran to Da's house and said to her, "Our two families know each other well. I think A Yuan is not young anymore, why not let her get engaged to our Jing Shen?"
It's just an engagement. When Jing Shen gets rich in the future, he will dump her. It's great to have someone working for you for free.
Dame said, "I can't control my daughter's affairs. She is very careful."
"Since ancient times, marriages have always been decided by parents and matchmakers. If you agree, A Yuan will naturally agree as well. Besides, she grew up with Jing Shen and often played behind him when she was a child. There is no other family more suitable than ours."
Bullshit! My son is going to fly up to the tree and become a phoenix in the future. What can a girl from your family do? But if your Ayuan can serve our family well, it is not impossible for my son to treat her well.
Da's mother was about to politely refuse when she suddenly heard Lu's mother's inner voice. She was shocked at first, then angry.
"It's just right for you, you big-headed ghost! Like mother, like son. What kind of character are you, a scoundrel? Don't I know that?
You want my daughter to marry you and take care of your elderly, sick and disabled family members, so that your son can climb the ladder without worries? Dream on!
Get out of here now! Don’t make me swear! "
"Eh? What are you talking about?" Mother Lu's heart tightened. Could it be that this woman knew about the affair between my son and that female educated youth from the city?
"We're all thinking about the children. Your daughter will get married eventually anyway. Instead of marrying someone she just met, it's better to marry someone like us who knows her well and has a strong emotional foundation, don't you think?"
"You're such a fool! Everyone in the village knows that your son likes Bai Jiaojiao? For Bai Jiaojiao, he even neglected your whole family. Now you come to my daughter, isn't it just to ask her to serve you? Do you think I'm stupid?"
The more Da's mother thought about it, the angrier she got. She picked up the broom and hit Lu's mother with it. "Get out of here! If you don't, I'll beat you to death!"
Mother Lu was so angry that she couldn't move her legs. She was already in poor health and returned home panting heavily. When she got home and saw the cold stove, she hated Bai Jiaojiao even more.
After seeing Damu's mother's performance, Sheng Jiang took out the admission letter that night and said, "Mom, come with me to the city. In a few years, the city will start to open up, and we can settle down in the city and don't have to farm anymore."
"But my mother's household registration is here."
"It's okay. I saved a leader. He promised to help you get a certificate so you can go to the city."
So Sheng Jiang took his mother to the city to go to college.
At this time, the villagers knew that Da Yuanzhong had also been admitted to university. The other one was the son of the village chief.
All of a sudden, this small mountain village was in an uproar. A golden phoenix had appeared in the village. It would have a bright future and might even be able to help. Who wouldn't be happy?
The only two people who were unhappy were Lu Jingshen and Bai Jiaojiao.
"That bitch in Da Yuanzhong! She made it so hard for us by hiding it from us."
"Brother Jingshen, what should we do now? I don't want to stay in the countryside anymore. I want to go back to the city."
"Jiaojiao, how about we repeat a year? We'll definitely be able to pass the exam next year!"
"I won't!" Bai Jiaojiao was furious. She hated studying the most. "You were the one who promised me that you would find a way to get me back. Is this your solution? Lu Jingshen, you're useless!"
No matter who the man was, hearing someone call him useless would make him fly into a rage. Lu Jingshen was no exception. However, he suppressed his anger and comforted her, "I had originally planned to give you the admission letter from Da Yuanzhong. I didn't expect her to be so defensive now. It's impossible to steal it now. We don't even know which university she is studying at."
Jiaojiao, you know my grades. If I repeat a year, I will definitely be admitted to Peking University or Tsinghua University. I will tutor you, and if we study together, you will definitely be able to pass the exam too. Believe me!
Bai Jiaojiao nodded reluctantly. She had no other shortcut now.
"Then Jiaojiao, let's get married?"
"What?"
"I say, let's get married! If you marry me, you won't have to worry about farm work anymore, just take care of the household. I'll earn work points to support you!"
Bai Jiaojiao didn't want to marry Lu Jingshen, who had accomplished nothing, but now the rumors about her and Lu Jingshen were known to everyone in the village. No one was willing to work for her for free anymore. After thinking about it, she nodded in agreement.
As expected, Mother Lu and the Lu brothers and sisters all strongly opposed it. Life was already difficult enough at home, and with another freeloader coming along, how were they going to get by?
Mother Lu cried and made a fuss, but Lu Jingshen remained unmoved. "Mom, whether you agree or not, I'm going to get married! If you try to stop me and Jiaojiao again, I'll break off all ties with you!"
Mother Lu was horrified. She could not believe that her usually obedient son would turn against her for a stranger. She immediately hated Bai Jiaojiao even more.
On the wedding day, during the wedding night, she called her son over on the pretext of feeling sick to her stomach. Bai Jiaojiao was so angry that she almost dropped her teacup.
The next day, Mother Lu said smugly, "You little bitch, even if you pester my son to marry you, what's the use? Didn't I call you away last night on their wedding night? It shows that in my son's eyes, I, his mother, am still the most important."
Bai Jiaojiao was so angry that her nails dug into her flesh.
There's no such thing as wedding leave in the countryside. The bride has to get up the next day to cook for the family and take care of the household chores. At the end of the day, Bai Jiaojiao is so exhausted she just wants to fall into bed and sleep. Whenever she tries to rest for a bit, she's greeted with verbal abuse and ridicule from Lu's mother and the rest of the family.
"City people are city people. They are weak and frail. They start panting before they even do any work."
"I think she just doesn't work enough. She's from the city, sure. But she's been in our village for almost two years. If she could endure hardships, she should have adapted to life in the countryside long ago, right? It's all because of her eldest brother who spoiled her! She helps him with work every day, and that's why she's still so spoiled now."
Bai Jiaojiao was so angry that she couldn't scold the three of them at once. She just wanted to wait for Lu Jingshen to come back and complain.
Hehe, it's quite interesting. In this life, Bai Jiaojiao and her family no longer have the joyful life they had in the previous life.
Lu Jingshen had already gone to work in the fields. He had a good idea: he would earn work points during the day and study with Bai Jiaojiao at night.
But at night, when he wanted to pull Bai Jiaojiao to study, Bai Jiaojiao had already closed her eyes and dozed off.
"Jiaojiao, have you forgotten the agreement between us?"
Bai Jiaojiao was confused, "What agreement?"
Lu Jingshen said angrily, "Let's study together tonight for next year's college entrance exam. Don't you want to go back to the city?"
"Come back, come back." After saying that, Bai Jiaojiao fell on the bed and fell asleep. No matter how Lu Jingshen called her, it was useless.
The next day, the same thing happened. Lu Jingshen was furious, "Bai Jiaojiao! You're going too far!"
It scared Bai Jiaojiao so much that she woke up halfway from her sleep.
"If you don't want to go to college, then I won't care about you anymore. I'll go to college on my own!"
“Depth of field, I’m just too sleepy. You don’t know, I’m never idle all day long. Your mother and the others…”
When have men ever done housework? For them, being able to work in the fields and earn work points is already a great honor for the family. So, Lu Jingshen couldn't understand what Bai Jiaojiao said.
"Bai Jiaojiao! Don't make excuses for your laziness. Isn't it like this in the countryside? A whole family lives together, so someone has to do the housework, right?
You married into our family, so you are one of us. If you don’t do the housework, who will? Besides, my mother has been doing it all her life, and she’s never complained about being as tired as you are. I think you are just being pretentious!
"Lu Jingshen!" Bai Jiaojiao was also angry. "So whatever your family does is right, and whatever I do is wrong, right?"
The newlyweds started quarreling after just two days, their initial vows and sweet words gone, making the villagers laugh.
Regardless, Lu Jingshen still only worked in the fields during the day and studied at night, but he no longer cared about Bai Jiaojiao's studies.
Bai Jiaojiao knew that with Lu Jingshen's grades, it was only a matter of time before he got into university. But once he got into university, he might abandon her if he met another outstanding woman in the future.
So she took advantage of the fact that her family wasn't paying attention and threw all of Lu Jingshen's books into the stove and burned them.
By the time the Lu family reacted, it had already turned to ashes.
"Bai Jiaojiao!" Lu Jingshen angrily slapped her in the face. "You're going too far! This is the fruit of my labor for so many years, and you destroy it just like that! You don't want to make progress yourself, and you still want to drag me along to live in this mountain valley with you?"
"So what if I destroyed it? Lu Jingshen, don't think I don't know what you're planning!
You married me, didn't you want me to take care of your family and your children, so that you don't have to worry about anything and can concentrate on your college entrance exams? A selfish person like you, wouldn't the first thing you did after you got into college be to dump me? You want me to be a stepping stone? Dream on!
Lu Jingshen was so angry that he couldn't hold back any longer and started punching and kicking Bai Jiaojiao, beating her until she was almost dead.
On the second day, the two opened their eyes and recalled their past and present lives. There was no more affection from the previous life, and the look in their eyes when they looked at each other was only disgust and anger!
Lu Jingshen had already made up his mind to divorce and go to the city to find Da Yuanzhong. But at this time, Bai Jiaojiao was pregnant, and the doctor said it was twins.
Lu Jingshen thought of his two children who respected him very much in his previous life and was looking forward to their arrival, so he temporarily gave up the idea of divorce.
That’s right, this pair of children are Lu Baiyan and Lu Baiyan, who were pulled back from the future by Jiang.
The two were on vacation at the beach, and when they opened their eyes again, they were back to when they were just born with nothing at home. Seeing Lu Jingshen and Bai Jiaojiao again, they were overjoyed: Great, Dad and Aunt Bai Jiaojiao are finally together in this life.
But soon, they became unhappy. This was because Lu Jingshen was the only one in the family who could earn full work points. The others only had three or four centimeters, and the daily rations were not enough to eat.
Bai Jiaojiao was from the city, and she was frail and weak, and did not produce enough milk. The two of them soon became malnourished, with pale faces and thin bodies, and looked much smaller than their peers.
Moreover, there were quarrels and fights in the house every day. There was no longer the warm and harmonious scene of the previous life. The two were puzzled.
"Brother, is it because Dad married Aunt Bai?"
"That's possible. If Dad had married Mom from his previous life, she would have been so capable and would have definitely found a way to ensure we all had enough to eat."
Regardless of what they thought, they couldn't even afford to eat in this life, let alone study. In the late 1980s, schooling still required tuition.
It wasn't until they were twelve years old that free education became universal, allowing them to go to school. However, their academic performance was very poor, after all, they had neglected their studies for so long.
A few years later, both of them failed to get into high school and were of marriageable age. Their families had no money to marry, so they decided to have a replacement bride.
Lu Baiyan refused to agree, but no one in her family spoke up for her. She finally understood the pain that Da Yuanzhong had felt back then.
Ginger: Ha, so what if I understand? If you do something wrong, you will be punished.
On the day of the marriage exchange, Lu Baiyan secretly ran back to her parents' home and poisoned the water tank, killing the entire Lu family from top to bottom. She was also sentenced to death.
Sheng Jiang settled down with Damu in the provincial capital. Just as the economy was liberalized, Sheng Jiang helped Damu open a shop. Initially, they sold local specialties. Later, the business grew and expanded, eventually spreading across the country.
