Reborn in the 1970s, remarried to a powerful but childless man, her scumbag husband is furious.

"break off an engagement?"

Wenrou stared blankly at the letter sent from the army for a long time before accepting the fact that she had been reborn.

A few days before her wedding to Zhou Dayong, she was drugged and sent to a strange man's bed.

When she woke up, she couldn't even remember what the man looked like, but the story spread throughout the whole village.

Everyone called her trash, but Zhou Dayong held her hand and said he didn't mind and was willing to marry her.

Although the Zhou family was willing to accept her, she blamed herself for her whole life and endured it all for Zhou Dayong's sake.

It wasn't until the Zhou family had squeezed all her value out of her and tormented her to death that she realized it was all a scheme by the Zhou family.

"Xiaorou, Dayong is doing this for your own good. He was seriously injured in the army and doesn't have much time left. He doesn't want to burden you. Just consider it fulfilling his last wish and agree to annul the engagement," Zhou Dayong's mother, He Cuihua, said, wiping away her tears and holding Wenrou's hand.

Behind her, the rest of the Zhou family members also looked pained and heartbroken.

Wenrou found this scene utterly ironic.

In her past life, she also thought that Zhou Dayong had been seriously injured and died in the army. In order to fulfill his wish, she agreed to break off the engagement.

To fulfill her filial duty to Zhou Dayong, she willingly supported the entire Zhou family and never married.

She did everything men could and couldn't do: farming, coal mining, bricklaying, driving trucks...

In the end, she raised Zhou Dayong's three younger siblings to adulthood, found them jobs, helped them get married, and watched them live a good life.

However, she exhausted her body early on and was diagnosed with cancer.

Fearing she would be a burden, the Zhou family kicked her out.

It was at that time that she learned the letter was forged by the Zhou family. Zhou Dayong was not only alive, but he had also married and had children in the army, been promoted, and had a happy family. Without the burden of his original family, he was living a happy and fulfilling life.

Everyone in the Zhou family knew this, but they had been keeping it from her.

After being kicked out of the Zhou family, she had no money for treatment and eventually froze to death on the street while begging. There was no one to even collect her body.

Perhaps it was God's pity on her that gave her a second chance at life.

The thought that all of this was a conspiracy by the Zhou family made Wenrou look at their disgusting faces with hatred in her eyes. She coldly tore the letter annulment to shreds in front of them.

"He wants to break off our engagement? Dream on!"

"Oh dear, Xiaorou, what are you doing?" He Cuihua's expression changed immediately when she saw Wenrou tear up the letter announcing the annulment.

The rest of the Zhou family also showed incredulous expressions. Why did they feel that Wenrou had suddenly become a little different?

He Cuihua was also worried. What would happen to Dayong if the letter of annulment was torn up?

They told Dayong that Wenrou had been behaving improperly in the village and was seducing men everywhere, which is why Dayong wrote the letter annuling the engagement. However, they came up with this dignified way to annul the engagement for the sake of her reputation.

They originally thought that given Wenrou's feelings for Dayong, she would definitely agree to annul the engagement, but unexpectedly she tore up the letter.

"Xiaorou, I know you can't accept this fact right now, but this is Dayong's last wish. If you don't agree, I, as his mother, won't be able to die in peace."

He Cuihua knew that Wenrou was always soft-hearted, and as long as she cried pitifully in front of her, Wenrou would definitely agree to anything.

Wenrou looked at He Cuihua's heartbroken appearance, as if her son was about to die, with a cold expression.

She used to be kind and gentle, which is why they bullied and exploited her for so many years.

Now that she's been given a second chance at life, she'll never be fooled by them again. She's going to go to the military base herself and ask Zhou Dayong what he really means. She'll let everyone know what kind of people this family is.

"Yes, my brother took you in against everyone's wishes, and because of that, he couldn't hold his head up in the village. He didn't care that you were a slut, that you'd lost your virginity. How can you not even grant him this last wish? Do you have any conscience at all?"

At this moment, Zhou Dayong's younger sister, Zhou Chunmei, also criticized her from the side.

In her past life, Zhou Chunmei used this incident to manipulate her, making her believe that it was all her fault for having her innocence defiled and that she was the one who had wronged Zhou Dayong.

So every time this matter was brought up, she could only lower her head and remain silent, bearing it all in silence.

That's why the Zhou family thought she was easy to bully and exploited her even more.

She sneered inwardly, then walked directly to Zhou Chunmei, raised her hand, and slapped her hard across the face.

With a sharp, resounding slap, the Zhou family members fell silent in disbelief.

"Wenrou, you shameless slut who no man wants, how dare you hit me?" Zhou Chunmei covered her face, unable to believe that she had been hit. She was her brother's most precious sister. What kind of person was Wenrou?

But as soon as she finished speaking and was about to raise her hand to retaliate, Wenrou easily grabbed her arm, raised her hand, and slapped her across the other cheek cleanly.

Wenrou used to go hunting in the mountains with her older brother for many years, so she was naturally stronger than Zhou Chunmei, who was still in school and was spoiled by her family.

"Your brother and I haven't broken off our engagement yet, Zhou Chunmei. You just wait and see, if you dare say another dirty word about me, I'll slap you until your mouth is raw."

At this moment, the rest of the Zhou family finally reacted. Zhou Dayong's two younger brothers rushed over to help their sister when they saw that she was being bullied.

"Wenrou, you slut, you whore, how dare you hit my sister?"

"Let go of my sister, you slut."

Wenrou looked at the two brats rushing towards her and kicked one of them away.

These two brats are still in elementary school and have no idea what they mean by what they're saying. They just hear the Zhou family talking about them and imitate what they hear.

"This is outrageous! This is outrageous! This is truly outrageous!" When Zhou's father saw his son being beaten, his face immediately darkened.

He Cuihua was also startled by Wenrou's sudden change and stood there blankly.

Then they saw Wenrou walk to the door, pick up an axe, and go back into their house. She chopped down on the locked cabinet with the axe.

"My money!" He Cuihua realized quickly; she had locked all the money in the house in the cabinet.

Wenrou knew, of course, that all the money He Cuihua hid in the cabinet came from her parents' home, as well as the money she had earned hunting in the mountains over the past two months. She couldn't let the Zhou family benefit from it.

After receiving the money, Wenrou went back to her room and quickly packed her things.

Seeing that Wenrou was about to leave, He Cuihua hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her arm, "Where are you going? Give me back my money."

"Your money? If I remember correctly, all the money in here was brought by me. Your Zhou family didn't even give me a single penny of betrothal gifts. What right do you have to covet my money?"

With a gentle sneer, she slammed an axe down on the table right in front of her, splitting it in two instantly.

He Cuihua was so frightened that she sat down on the ground, her pants getting wet.

"Your Zhou family had better remember what you did to me. I'm going to the army right now to find Zhou Dayong and get to the bottom of this. If he's really going to die, I'll just collect his body."
