Reborn in 1979, with a female educated youth lying next to me.

The woman staggered to her feet, but before she could straighten up, she suddenly stumbled and knelt down in the grass.

My legs felt weak, and my body felt like it was falling apart.

I only feel a sense of security when I sit down firmly.

The woman, panting heavily, lowered her head helplessly, looking at her clothes that were completely soaked, her brows furrowed tightly.

A gust of wind blew by, and the woman shivered before looking up at Liu Jia.

Liu Jia was furious.

"Someone actually turned the tables on me!"

Just as Guo Jianjun was about to explain, the woman fainted due to exhaustion.

Guo Jianjun hurriedly stepped back, his voice filled with wariness.

"Is this woman trying to extort money again? We need to get her to the relevant authorities right away. We can't let her stay here!"

Liu Jia looked exhausted: "Let alone the fact that there are no relevant departments around here, even if there were, what would we say when we got there?"

Guo Jianjun stiffened his neck.

"To be honest, if we hand it over to the relevant departments, it's none of our business."

Liu Jia rubbed his forehead and said weakly, "You mean, we should tell those people that we saved someone who was about to die, and then after the person woke up, they would scratch both of us?"

Guo Jianjun didn't think too much about it and simply nodded.

But then I thought about it again, and that's really the truth. How come it sounds different when I say it out loud?

I doubt many people would believe this, and they might even label the two of them as the murderers...

Seeing that Liu Jia remained silent, Guo Jianjun abandoned the idea of ​​sending him to the law enforcement team.

Turning to look at Liu Jia, Liu Jia seemed to be deep in thought.

After a while, he said calmly, "Take her back to the factory first, let her rest for a bit and wake up before we talk about it."

"We can't just leave the person here and leave. We've already saved them, so what's a little longer?"

Although Guo Jianjun was still unwilling, there was no better solution at the moment.

Actually, Liu Jia was also unwilling.

It's a bit unreasonable to throw someone back here after all the trouble of saving their life.

Liu Jia also felt it was inappropriate to bring it back to the factory.

In contrast, Liu Jia chose the latter.

The two of them reluctantly lifted the person into the car.

The tractor also started to turn around and head back.

Liu Jia did not put the woman in the cockpit.

Firstly, there were no seats available, and secondly, it was simply not suitable.

Fortunately, Zhao Xiaochao and his team did not remove the lining when they unloaded the casserole.

Liu Jia couldn't care less about anything else right now. He hurriedly gathered some weeds together and put the person on top of them.

The tractor had thick tires, but the village roads were all dirt roads, so the ride was bumpy, and the woman woke up after a short while.

Upon seeing that she was in an unfamiliar environment, the woman began to shout again, "Where is this?"

The woman realized she was sitting on a tractor, and the people in the cab looked like the two she had encountered before, so she became even more wary.

Instinctively, the woman pounded on the cockpit window. "What do you want! Where are you taking me?"

The woman's voice was shrill, and she slammed her hand on the cockpit window, making a loud bang.

Liu Jia slammed on the brakes!

The force of the recoil caused the woman to slam her head against the car window!

Liu Jia got out of the car angrily and jumped into the back of the tractor!

The woman was shocked, her eyes widening as she looked at Liu Jia.

Liu Jia asked angrily, "Why are you using so much force? Are you trying to smash my tractor?"

"We kindly rescued you from the river, and this is how you repay your savior?"

As he spoke, Liu Jia pointed to the still-bleeding wound on his hand.

Beside him, Guo Jianjun, who was next in line, also pointed to his own wound!

The woman was stunned. These two people...

What savior?

Could it be that I was saved by these two people?

The woman tried hard to recall something, but her head throbbed with pain and her chest felt tight.

At this moment, Liu Jia's voice rose again.

"You start making a rash fuss without even knowing what's going on? Is that how you behave?!"

Why don't you ask how you survived?

"If I'd known it would turn out like this, I would have just let you float on the river!"

Liu Jia's anger was genuine, and the woman didn't dare to be as arrogant as before.

He looked very angry, and I even felt that what he said made some sense.

So he changed his previous sarcastic tone and even softened his voice.

"What's the matter?"

Liu Jia rolled her eyes and pointed at Guo Jianjun next to her, "You, go explain to her, I can't be bothered with her!"

It was Liu Jia who suggested saving the person, but Liu Jia didn't consider himself someone to be easily manipulated!

Are you suffering in silence and then engaging in internal conflict?

Only a fool would do that!

Guo Jianjun was somewhat bewildered.

Liu Jia was the one who insisted on saving the person just now, but now he doesn't want to pay any attention to this woman!

Who would want to talk to this woman after encountering such a disgusting situation?

Looking at the two bloody marks on his arm, Guo Jianjun wasn't in a good mood either.

However, in order to help the woman understand what was going on, Guo Jianjun explained what had just happened.

The woman was skeptical, but seeing that she was soaked to the bone and had a severe headache, she didn't ask any more questions.

None of the three spoke.

They all sat on the grass in the back of the tractor.

The woman rested for a while, holding her forehead, her complexion growing increasingly pale.

After calming down, I finally remembered what had happened.

The woman kept sniffing, pondering how to handle the current situation.

I absolutely cannot go home!

These two people in front of me are my lifeline, I can't let go of them!

"My two brothers, I'm sorry, I was being irrational just now."

"Thank you for saving me. Look, I even scratched you. I apologize."

"My mind was a little foggy just now, but I'm clear-headed now, so please don't take it to heart."

The woman repeatedly thanked them, apologizing for her impulsive actions.

Liu Jia and Guo Jianjun then looked at it and didn't pursue the matter any further.

It's pointless for two grown men to argue with a woman.

Once the woman fell silent, Liu Jia scratched the back of his head.

"Now that you're awake, and I see you're alright, let's go home!"

"Don't be afraid, we won't do anything to you."

"Where do you live? We'll take you back so your family won't worry."

Upon hearing this, the woman tensed up completely!

"I can't go home..."

Guo Jianjun was an impatient man, and he retorted directly, "If you don't go home, where will you go? We have to take you somewhere, you can't just keep following us like this!"

Liu Jia nodded in agreement; that made sense.

He got up early in the morning, drove his tractor out, and when he came back, he hadn't accomplished anything; instead, he brought back a woman!

Everyone who sees this will gossip!

Right now, I don't want to get involved in these gossips.

Liu Jia patiently spoke.

"Did you have a fight with your family? Even if you did, it's okay, you're all family, blood is thicker than water. Don't be afraid!"

When the woman mentioned going home, her eyes reddened, and Liu Jia saw it clearly.

Therefore, he instinctively assumed that the woman was having a conflict with her family.

Perhaps he chose to jump into the river because he was having a moment of despair.

But when the woman in front of him heard Liu Jia say that, she shrank back in fear and kept shaking her head.

Seeing that the two people in front of her had no intention of taking her in, the woman simply started to sob.

Liu Jia and Guo Jianjun looked at each other, neither of them knowing what to do.

Why are they crying now? They offered to kindly take him home.

Something's not right here!

"Don't cry. Tell us what happened."

Guo Jianjun stared at the woman in front of him, his eyes filled with doubt.

It stands to reason.

Whatever the reason, this woman just narrowly escaped death and was saved. She should cherish her life even more now that she's back.

People say that it's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death.

This woman has died once, so her thoughts are naturally more insightful than those of ordinary people.

But why is she crying?

Knowing she couldn't escape it, the woman simply looked up and wiped away her tears.

"You saved my life, and I don't want to hide anything from you."

"I had a fight with my husband, so I came to the river in a huff, and I didn't expect to fall in by accident."

"There was no one there back then. I never even dared to imagine that I would meet you all and survive."

Liu Jia stared at the woman in disbelief. Could arguing with her husband really lead to falling into the river?

That's such a flimsy excuse!

If I actually believed that, wouldn't I be a fool?

Guo Jianjun quietly turned around and looked at the river with fear in his eyes.

A woman, overcome with emotion, went to the riverbank and suddenly fell in. Could it be... that there's something unclean in this river?

"Gudu!"

Guo Jianjun swallowed hard, then moved closer to the bamboo.

Seeing Liu Jia staring at her, the woman continued with what she had to say next.

"I wish I had really died, but unfortunately I didn't. Thank you anyway, I really don't want to go home."

“My mother-in-law and husband treated me badly. I was only allowed to eat one meal a day, and that was the case when I was in postpartum confinement.”

"Beatings and kicks are commonplace for me. I really don't want to go back. Please have pity on me. I'd rather die than go back!"

Liu Jia believed some of what was said later.

While the woman was speaking, Liu Jia looked her up and down. She did have a sallow complexion, but he didn't see many injuries.

However, Guo Jianjun's suspicions resurfaced.

Is this person a scammer?

Although the person has been rescued, and it's understandable to be happy, we shouldn't believe everything she says.

"Tell us which village you're from first."

Guo Jianjun remained calm, his eyes fixed on the woman in front of him.

The woman's voice suddenly rose in pitch.

"I can't say. What if you send me back if I do?"

Guo Jianjun was speechless.

Liu Jia was in a dilemma.

Why would someone bring a woman home for no reason?

Even if I can figure it out myself, how can I tell my parents?

Seeing Liu Jia's hesitation, the woman continued, "You can go anywhere, even if you don't let me go home. I can still work for you!"

"I don't have any money on me right now, but I can pay with work!"

"I'm very efficient at my work!"

Liu Jia thought about it for a moment, and realized that the factory was indeed short-handed.

But this can't go on forever; sooner or later someone will come looking for us.

Guo Jianjun began to think along the lines of what the woman had said.

"You can work, but how long are you going to work? How are we going to explain this to your family when they come looking for you?"

Guo Jianjun and Liu Jia had the same idea.

Everyone has their own destiny, and it's not appropriate for them to interfere in other people's family affairs, since every family has its own problems.

If a woman's life is truly as miserable as described earlier, then leaving is definitely the best option.

At least, I won't be abused anymore.

They can't really be of much help, but they can find a place for him to rest for a while.

Liu Jia looked at the woman in front of him again.

“You can work as a laborer in our factory temporarily, but we can’t let you stay here long-term; this isn’t a sustainable solution.”

"You have to face your own family issues."

"Besides, you have children."

When Liu Jia mentioned the child, the woman's eyes welled up with tears again.

"I know, thank you for taking me in. I'll leave once I've calmed down. I won't cause you any trouble."

“If I go back now, I will only face death. I thank you for your great kindness!”

As she spoke, the woman actually knelt down in front of Liu Jia and Guo Jianjun!
