The hunter's leisurely life begins with marrying a female educated youth.

"Yun'er, wake up quickly, Han Zhiqing is here."

Early in the morning, my mother Chen Wan's voice rang in my ears, her tone a mixture of anxiety and excitement.

Hearing that familiar yet unfamiliar voice, Zhang Yun was suddenly awakened. When he opened his eyes, he saw the figure that haunted his memories, and his expression instantly turned to shock.

The voice was familiar because it was a voice I had heard since childhood, deeply imprinted in my soul.

The voice was unfamiliar because Zhang Yun's mother, Chen Wan, passed away when Zhang Yun was thirty. For the next forty years, Zhang Yun did not hear that familiar voice and could only recall it in his memory.

"Didn't I die of illness myself?"

Zhang Yun was feeling lost at that moment.

Just moments before, Zhang Yun was in his hospital room, on the verge of death, when his wife, Tang Tiantian, brought their son, Zhang Chuntian, to his bedside and told him a secret she had kept hidden her whole life.

It turns out that Zhang Chuntian, the child born to Tang Tiantian, is not Zhang Yun's biological son. She had a secret affair with Zhang Dahai from the village. A month after becoming pregnant, Zhang Dahai fell in love with someone else. Fearing that the fact that she was pregnant out of wedlock would be exposed, she took Zhang Yun to her room on the night of the educated youth returning to the city for a dinner party, while Zhang Yun was drunk.

The next morning, the educated youth who were preparing to return to the city came to Tang Tiantian's room and saw the two of them sleeping in the same bed.

At that time, the social atmosphere was extremely simple and honest, and reputation was of paramount importance. Zhang Yun was forced into a corner and, in a daze, married Tang Tiantian.

Upon hearing this shocking secret in the final moments of his life, Zhang Yun was so enraged that he couldn't catch his breath and died instantly.

The next second, Zhang Yun heard his mother Chen Wan's voice. Now Zhang Yun finally confirmed that he seemed to have been... reborn.

What did you just hear?

Han, the educated youth, came to our house.

In an instant, Zhang Yun's memories of his past life were integrated into his body, and he knew that he had been reborn in June 1977.

That was the year that Han Xuemei, a female educated youth, visited Zhang Yun's home for the first and only time.

Zhang Yun knew Han Xuemei's purpose in coming to his house; she wanted to marry him.

In his previous life, Zhang Yun had feelings for Han Xuemei, but his family was too poor and he didn't want to ruin Han Xuemei's life, so he cruelly rejected her.

Later, in the early spring of 1978, after receiving the notice to return to the city, Han Xuemei met with Zhang Yun the night before her departure. The two chatted happily about their past experiences, and Han Xuemei made Zhang Yun drink a few glasses of wine.

Zhang Yun, who was not good at drinking, quickly got drunk, and Han Xuemei actually gave her virginity to Zhang Yun.

That very night, Han Xuemei became pregnant.

Later, Zhang Yun went into business and, after becoming successful, visited the city where Han Xuemei lived and learned some information about her.

Han Xuemei married a factory workshop director, a widowed middle-aged man. Not long after their marriage, he discovered that Han Xuemei was two months pregnant and began to drink heavily and abuse her every day.

In the end, Han Xuemei lived a painful life of prolonged malnutrition and emotional distress, which eventually led to her death from postpartum hemorrhage.

One corpse, two lives.

At that time, Zhang Yun realized that Han Xuemei probably knew that after returning to the city, she would be forced by her family to marry this middle-aged man. She was unwilling to accept this, so she wanted to stay in Jiuwan Village, and the only way was to marry someone from the village.

Zhang Yun's rejection left Han Xuemei feeling hopeless. As she left Jiuwan Village, she thought of the wonderful times she had spent with Zhang Yun. So, taking advantage of the moment of leaving the village, she got Zhang Yun drunk and gave him her best, thus bringing this beautiful time to a close.

In his previous life, Zhang Yun regretted these things for the rest of his life, but he couldn't show it because of his wife, Tang Tiantian.

Little did anyone know that when Zhang Yun was critically ill, Tang Tiantian would tell him such a shameful secret.

At this moment, Zhang Yun had just been reborn. Upon hearing that Han Xuemei had come to his house, he immediately got out of bed and ran to the main room, carrying the regrets and guilt from his previous life.

A graceful figure stood there, dressed in an old grass-green military uniform, with a grass-green canvas satchel slung across her chest, a red armband on her arm, and a pair of grass-green liberation shoes on her feet.

The standard image of a female educated youth in this era.

The image of Han Xuemei, which was deep in Zhang Yun's memory, was now vividly appearing before Zhang Yun's eyes.

"Han Zhiqing, you've arrived."

Zhang Yun approached Han Xuemei at a distance of about two meters, his expression somewhat excited, his eyes filled with a longing look.

Han Xuemei had mustered up her courage and spent a long time convincing herself before she came to Zhang Yun's house.

Since entering the main room, Han Xuemei had been feeling very complicated. She was clutching the hem of her clothes with both hands, feeling uneasy and anxious.

When Zhang Yun shouted, Han Xuemei met his gaze, and her courage was rekindled.

"Zhang Yun, I want to talk to you."

Han Xuemei said softly, her face already flushed, and tears welling up in her eyes.

At this moment, Han Xuemei was filled with mixed emotions. The thought of the marriage arranged for her by her family made her feel gloomy. She wanted to marry Zhang Yun herself, but she was afraid that he would refuse. If Zhang Yun agreed, she didn't know what her future would be like.

I'm just really confused.

But Han Xuemei remained steadfast in her convictions; she had chosen her own path, and she would face it bravely.

Chen Wan had been listening intently inside the room, and when she heard Han Xuemei's words, she felt that she was a little out of place.

So Chen Wan also came out of the house and came to the main room. She smiled and said, "Han Zhiqing, you two chat first. I'll go outside to pack my things."

As Chen Wan left the main room, she gave Zhang Yun a wink, signaling him to be bold and win over Han Xuemei.

Zhang Yun smiled wryly; his mother was afraid he would let Han Xuemei go.

However, Zhang Yun also realized that his mother was very satisfied with Han Xuemei.

Only the two of them remained in the main room. They looked at each other, both of them appearing somewhat nervous.

"Han Zhiqing, what brings you here?"

Zhang Yun asked the question knowing the answer already.

Han Xuemei rubbed her hands together, pursed her lips, and tried to speak, but it was as if a hand was choking her throat, and she couldn't utter a sound.

It really takes a lot of courage to say those words.

Zhang Yun had already experienced this in his previous life, and he knew that Han Xuemei was nervous, so he didn't urge her and waited quietly.

After a long while, Han Xuemei finally made up her mind and looked seriously into Zhang Yun's eyes again.

"Zhang Yun, I want to marry you. Will you marry me?"

After she finished speaking, Han Xuemei's entire neck turned red, but her eyes were full of anticipation, and her eyes welled up with tears.
