Wen Jing thought of what Lin Zhen said, that when encountering problems, one must think more and take the initiative into one's own hands in order to solve the problem.

After thinking about it, she realized that if she went back like this, they would definitely not tell her her sister's address and would instead send her back.

She has to change her appearance and let them find ways to take advantage of her.

As long as you want to gain benefits from her, then the initiative will be in her hands, and everything will be easily solved.

After making up her mind, Wen Jing went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative to do some shopping. Fortunately, there were a lot of tickets in Wang Dahai's box, so she was able to buy everything she wanted.

The supply and marketing cooperative in Changyou County is not very big, about 50 to 60 square meters. There are slogans such as "Unite and cooperate to seek common development" and "Mutual assistance and mutual benefit, treat each other sincerely" posted on the door. There are still a lot of people inside. A whole row of cabinets are placed against the wall, and the slogans are still posted on the top. Goods are neatly arranged on the cabinets, and there is a whole row of glass display cabinets right in front of the cabinets, displaying goods such as candies. Many salesmen are busy behind the display cabinets.

Wen Jing went in and took a look around, spending less than five dollars to buy some biscuits, brown sugar, peanuts and dates as gifts. She turned around and saw a folding knife on the shelf, so she bought it without thinking.

Lin Zhen is sleeping, it would be great to have a knife to protect herself.

What happened this morning had already spread, and many people were talking about the Wang family. Most people were laughing at the Wang family for marrying a tigress to protect their home. Some people were standing up for Wang Dahai and sighing, educating their sons not to marry such a tigress in the future.

Women of this era can only swallow their anger. As long as they resist, no matter whether it is your grievance or not, there will always be many people who will defend the man's dignity and blame her for not being gentle and virtuous enough.

Some people recognized Wen Jing and secretly pointed fingers at her behind her back, saying that she was a tigress, not virtuous at all and very difficult to mess with.

The place is so small that you can even hear a muffled fart.

Wen Jing pretended not to hear anything. Perhaps it was because of the three fried eggs and the gossip of these people that her mind seemed to be opened up.

You've been reborn, why do you still want to put yourself in a difficult position?

Anyway, it’s not her own money that she is spending.

I spent more than fifty dollars to buy myself a new dress.

Turning around and seeing a pair of beautiful shoes, only 23 yuan? Buy it!

I looked up and saw a pair of very fashionable bell-bottom pants. I asked the price and it was only 38 yuan. I bought it!

From head to toe, I bought brand new underwear, even socks and hair ties.

When Wen Jing saw the stall selling incense, candles, and paper money, she picked the best of everything without hesitation, including paper clothes, shoes, and gold ingots, and bought a big bag.

I haven't visited my mother for a long time, and I don't know how she is doing over there.

Soon she was holding a lot of bags in her hands. People who didn't know her thought she was going to celebrate the New Year. More people pointed fingers at her, and this time a new word was added: spendthrift daughter-in-law.

Wen Jing still ignored these people, thinking they were just jealous. She happened to hear others talking about letters of introduction and then she remembered that in this era one still needed a letter of introduction to travel.

The first generation of ID cards was issued in 1985, and letters of introduction are still in use in many places.

Her ID card is still at her parents' home and her household registration has not been transferred there yet, so she can only travel with a letter of introduction.

It just so happened that Wang Dahai was the leader of the steel plant and was in charge of human resources. He often issued letters of introduction to those employees. He had a list of letters of introduction and the official seal at home.

Wen Jing immediately returned to Wang's house, found the two things, pondered for a while, wrote a letter of introduction, stamped it, stamped a few more blank sheets, tore them off, folded them and put them away.

She was educated and was admitted to Yongchang No. 1 Middle School, but her father forced her not to go and gave the place to Wenzhu, who is now in her second year of high school.

After Wen Jing finished all these, she went straight into the master bedroom to sleep and locked the iron door.

She was not afraid that Wang Dahai would have someone kill her. She remembered that Wang Dahai had several people under his command who specialized in doing shady things. This was the Wang family. If she died in the Wang family, people would definitely suspect that it was Wang Dahai's doing out of a grudge.

Early the next morning, Wen Jing changed into new clothes and went to the station to buy a ticket back to Wenjia Village, only to find that the first bus would not leave for another hour and a half.

When she looked in the mirror in the morning, she saw that the slap marks on her face were quite obvious, and she was trying to think of a reason to fool the vampires in the Wen family.

Anyway, there is still plenty of time, and the only place in the county where you can do makeup is a photo studio.

Wen Jing simply went to a photo studio to put on some makeup and style her hair in order to cover up the slap marks on her face that had turned purple. She also bought some powder and used it to touch up her makeup herself.

After finishing all this, Wen Jing looked at herself in the mirror.

The girl in the mirror had the most popular curly hair at the time, which made her hair look fluffy and natural. Her eyes were big and watery, with a hint of smile. Her lips were plump and with lipstick on, her face looked rosy and healthy, just like the fashionable girl in the calendar.

She no longer had the haggard and sad face of her previous life.

Wen Jing looked at the strange yet familiar face in the mirror and couldn't help but burst into tears.

“I can be so pretty.”

The photographer next to her saw that she was in a bad mood. He had also heard about the Wang family's incident. Yesterday, when the police took the three members of the Wang family home, they passed by this photo studio and he saw Wen Jing.

He was one of those people who couldn't stand a man beating his wife, so he quickly consoled her, "You are already very pretty, as pretty as a girl in a magazine. Those who think you are not pretty and want to beat you must be blind."

Wen Jing burst into laughter and said, "Well, they are all blind."

Finally, Wen Jing took a photo. She thought she could get the photo right away, but the photographer said that the process of developing the photo was very complicated and she would have to wait a week before she could get it.

Wen Jing was not in a hurry. She paid the money and went to the station.

Many people were secretly looking at her along the way. Some people who didn't know her but were quite friendly came up to her and asked her where she was from and whether she was married. When they got the answer that she was already married, many people had regretful looks on their faces.

Wen Jing gradually got used to it from the embarrassment she felt at the beginning, and gradually accumulated some confidence in her heart, and her slightly bent back straightened.

Only when you have confidence can you have the courage to do things.

Wen Jing took a bus to Wenjia Village where the Wen family lived.

The bus swayed on the winding mountain road for most of the day, and it was almost time for dinner when we arrived at Wenjia Village.

It has been twenty-seven or twenty-eight years since we last met. I haven’t been back to this home for a long time.

She had forgotten where her home was and stood on the side of the road, not knowing which direction to go.

It was the lady next to her who looked at her for a long time before she tried to speak, "Is it Jingjing?"

Wen Jing was a little confused and nodded: "It's me."

The old lady patted her chest to make sure she had not recognized the wrong person. "Hey, you have changed so much that I almost didn't recognize you. I didn't even dare to call you just now."

"By the way, didn't you just get married the day before yesterday? Why are you back today?"

Wen Jing looked at the lady and searched her memory for a moment. This person seemed to be her neighbor, Aunt Chen. She smiled sweetly and said, "Hello, Aunt Chen. I'm visiting my parents today."

Aunt Chen then caught a glimpse of the gift in her hand, and looked behind her. No one else was there. "Oh, you're visiting your relatives. Where's your husband? Why didn't he come with you?"

Wen Jing smiled coquettishly, "Hey, don't mention it. My husband was supposed to accompany me back today, but something happened in the factory today. He is the leader of the factory, so how could he leave? He asked me to bring back gifts."

Aunt Chen saw that she was smiling very sweetly and looked at her carefully. Her hair was permed in a hairstyle she had only seen in calendars, and her face was delicately made up. She recognized the clothes she was wearing. It was the most popular style at the time. She had seen it today at the supply and marketing cooperative in Changyou County. It cost more than fifty yuan, enough to buy more than twenty kilograms of pork. She was so scared that she didn't even dare to touch it.

Now the clothes that she dared not touch were worn by a little girl who had never worn a good piece of clothing. Aunt Chen felt very uncomfortable.

Because a matchmaker had come to her house before to propose a marriage to her daughter, and the person he mentioned was Wang Dahai. At that time, the matchmaker praised Wang Dahai to the skies, saying that his family owned a factory, he earned hundreds of thousands of yuan a year, and he was a very handsome man.

She also knew that the matchmaker would definitely exaggerate what he said, so she went to ask around, but she found nothing and was shocked when she heard what she heard.

Wang Dahai's family was not as rich as the matchmaker said, but they were indeed from the county town and he was the director of a steel plant. He was a wealthy man, but the only bad thing about him was that he loved to beat his wife. I heard that his previous wife was beaten to death.

At that time, she didn't dare to agree to let her daughter marry him.

Now I think the rumor was wrong, and I feel a little regretful that I didn't marry my daughter to that man.

Otherwise, the new clothes would be worn by my own daughter.

Aunt Chen laughed bitterly. "Tsk, tsk, tsk, you are wearing really fashionable clothes. I have never worn such nice clothes."

Wen Jing pretended not to see her sour look. This was exactly the effect she wanted. She acted very happy and took the initiative to help Aunt Chen carry the things.

"Hey, these were all bought for me by my husband Dahai. He said they look good on me."

"Come on, let's go together. My dad and the others are probably home at this time."

Aunt Chen felt even more uncomfortable, but she couldn't resist Wen Jing's enthusiasm, so they both went home with different thoughts.
