After her husband died, her parents came to force her to remarry

After thinking about it for a while, I fell into a deep sleep.

I woke up at night.

After waking up and feeling a little thirsty, Jiang Xiaohe wanted to go to the kitchen to get some water, but she heard some noises in the kitchen. It turned out that Wang Qiuxia and Zhang Fu were still awake and chatting.

"It seems that what we said today has put Xiaohe in an awkward position," said Zhang Fu.

Wang Qiuxia also sighed: "Yes, she didn't go out all afternoon, and didn't come out for dinner. Will she feel that we are forcing her?"

"How could that be? Don't think too much. Xiao He is a sensible person. She definitely wouldn't think that way. I'm afraid we are making it difficult for her to make a decision."

"To be honest, I really can't bear to part with her. It's a pity that we don't have that luck. If Dashan were still alive, it would be great. To be honest, how could I bear to give away such a good wife?" At the end, Wang Qiuxia's voice choked up a little.

Zhang Fu patted her shoulder and said, "Okay, why are you crying so late at night? It's good that we have such a fate with her. Besides, Chuan'er has gone to school. No one in our family has ever been to school."

Wang Qiuxia wiped her tears and said, "Yes, it's all thanks to Xiaohe. But if she was at home and Chuan'er was in school..."

Jiang Xiaohe couldn't listen to the rest of the conversation, so she went to the backyard to fetch a bucket of water, drank two sips, and went back to the house.

I couldn't fall asleep at all until I finally made a decision in my heart, sighed, and fell asleep.

During the next few days of getting along, Jiang Xiaohe could see that the old couple felt a little unnatural.

Jiang Xiaohe wrote a letter and asked Qin Mei to deliver it to Manager Yu in the town, saying that it was for Chang Wei.

The letter was sent out in the morning and Chang Wei came to the door in the evening.

The old couple looked at Jiang Xiaohe, and Jiang Xiaohe walked forward: "Why are you here?"

Chang Wei glanced at the two old people and pulled her aside: "What do you mean by the words in your letter?"

Jiang Xiaohe said coldly: "Just as the letter said."

Seeing her so indifferent, Chang Wei asked her: "Did something happen? No matter what it is, we can bear it together, don't you..."

Jiang Xiaohe distanced herself from him and said, "No, Chang Wei, I thank you for saving me many times, but I have my family and my responsibilities. It is impossible for us to be together after all."

Chang Wei said anxiously: "I know you have your responsibilities, but this does not affect you and me..."

"Master Chang! This is in my house, please be careful with what you say!"

Chang Wei looked at her for a long time without saying anything. Finally, he covered his chest and smiled bitterly: "I thought that after we have been through so much, there is a possibility between us. It turns out that I thought too much. Madam Jiang, I am sorry to bother you."

After saying that, he turned around and walked away trembling.

When Manager Chang saw his master leaving, he immediately came over and said, "Madam Jiang! You..." Turning around and seeing Qin Mei, he swallowed some of his words, "Do you know how badly our master was injured the last time he was with you? He managed to survive, but you hurt him like this!"

After saying that, he turned around and angrily chased after Chang Wei.

Jiang Xiaohe also took two steps forward, then stepped back, that's all...

The two old people stood aside and watched her walk back to her room. Although they were happy that she finally chose to stay home, they felt sad when they saw her lost look.

Qin Mei followed Jiang Xiaohe back into the house and watched her sitting quietly in front of the bronze mirror.

"If you feel bad, just cry."

Cry? Jiang Xiaohe shook her head. How could she cry? If she were in her world, she would be almost forty years old.

Qin Mei retreated quietly.

She looked at her younger self in the bronze mirror and thought it was a little funny: a person who was almost forty years old in her heart was still thinking about love!

But her eyes suddenly turned red, and her nose also turned red, but she still held back her tears.

She thought to herself that she had been corroded by the ideas of this era.

For the next six months, neither Chang Wei nor Manager Chang appeared again. During these six months, her business with Meng Hetang was booming. Meng Hetang even opened a branch in the state capital, and she also made a fortune.

A new village chief was elected. Seeing that her family had become rich, everyone nominated Zhang Fu to be the village chief. Zhang Fu raised his hand to refuse.

Seeing that he was not an option, everyone thought of Zhang Quan again. Zhang Quan took the men in the village to repair houses all year round, which helped many people in the village make money. The title of village chief was well deserved. Zhang Quan could not refuse no matter how he chose, and finally had to accept the job.

When Zeng Hua was treating everyone to a meal, he kept saying that all this was thanks to Jiang Xiaohe. If it weren't for her, their family wouldn't be so prosperous.

Everyone in the family toasted her with a glass of wine. Although Jiang Xiaohe had a smile on her face, her eyes were full of loneliness.

A little drunk, Jiang Xiaohe returned to the house, lay down and fell asleep. In a daze, she felt as if there was someone in front of her and slightly opened her eyes.

Chang Wei looked at her drunken appearance and said with a smile: "You don't know how to drink, but you often drink so much!"

"Chang Wei, is that you?" she asked.

Chang Wei nodded: "It's me."

She didn't know if it was the effect of alcohol or something else, but as soon as she saw him, she felt uncomfortable in her heart. She burst into tears instantly. Chang Wei quickly covered her mouth and made a hushing gesture to her.

Jiang Xiaohe nodded quickly.

"Why are you here?" she asked in a muffled voice.

"I came to see you." Chang Wei said calmly. He felt that she asked this because she must not want to see him.

Jiang Xiaohe bit her lip. Chang Wei looked at her for a long time before saying, "I'm here to say goodbye to you."

"where are you going?"

"I'm going to suppress bandits and avenge my parents and my master. I don't know if I can come back alive, so I wanted to see you one last time." At the end, Chang Wei smiled bitterly.

"You will definitely come back alive."

Chang Wei looked up at her and smiled: "It doesn't matter whether you can come back or not."

"It's important!" Jiang Xiaohe grabbed his hand and said, "I hope you come back alive."

For a moment, Chang Wei felt that she should care about him as well.

Isn’t it said that the truth comes out when drunk?

Chang Wei looked at her and asked tentatively: "Jiang Xiaohe, have you ever liked me?"

Jiang Xiaohe didn't answer him. Perhaps she thought she was dreaming, so she closed her eyes and fell asleep again.

Chang Wei smiled and shook his head. Seeing the hairpin on her head, he took it off and played with it in his hand.

Jiang Xiaohe opened her eyes again. Chang Wei looked a little unnatural. He raised the hairpin in his hand and said, "Leave it as a memory for me." After saying that, he put it in his arms as if he was afraid that she would regret it.

Jiang Xiaohe just looked at him, and when he saw that he was about to leave, he said, "Chang Wei, you must come back alive."

Chang Wei looked back at her and said jokingly, "If I can come back alive, will you marry me? If you marry me, I will come back alive."
