Reborn in 1974, crying with red eyes while hugging her rough husband

"They are a loving couple, we shouldn't get involved."

They were chatting, but the things in their hands were being knitted very quickly, without being affected at all. When Mrs. Wang hooked the corner, she asked Shen Zhizhu how to place the next stitch in order to complete the desired pattern.

Shen Zhizhu even demonstrated it directly.

"Oh~ So that's how it is. Such a small step can have such a big impact. It's really unexpected."

Mrs. Wang’s problem was solved. She only tried it a few times before she grasped the essence and continued her gossip.

"Hey, have you heard that poor little Shen Ai Qiu got married, but we don't know who she married."

The people who came with Mrs. Wang were not slow in their movements, but their ability to digest gossip was obviously weaker.

But she knew about Shen Ai Qiu.

"I know this. She married an old widower in our village, and her family asked for a dowry of 400 yuan, which is quite high. It happened today."

Hearing this, Shen Zhizhu paused while knitting the scarf. In her previous life, Shen Aiqiu had always wanted to catch a rich husband, so at least she didn't marry anyone before she died.

The widower might be the old man that Shen Jianguo and Li Chunlan found for her in her previous life. In this life, she did not divorce Xu Haonan, nor did she escape back to his Shen family.

Changed the original destiny.

Aunt Li sighed. She didn't expect Shen Ai Qiu to get married just like that.

"I thought Shen Aiqiu was a person who would never admit defeat. If she didn't pass the exam this time, she would try again next time. If for no other reason, she would work hard just to compete with Xiaozhu and get into Beijing University. I didn't expect that she would get married."

To be honest, when Shen Zhizhu and Shen Aiqiu were still young, they did feel pity for Shen Zhizhu when they saw him, and showed some kindness and gave him some food.

But compared to the sweet-talking Shen Ai Qiu, everyone still prefers Shen Ai Qiu more.

It's hard to describe the feeling when I think about how the little girl who was once so cute has grown up to be more and more crooked, and even married a widower.

Shen Zhizhu found it a little strange. Based on her understanding of Shen Ai Qiu in two lifetimes, it was absolutely impossible for her to lower her requirements and give up a rich man from a big city just because she failed an exam.

"She didn't cry?"

When it comes to gossip, even though she is shy and introverted, she relaxes a lot and tells everyone everything she knows.

"How could there not be noise? At the beginning, the bride was very quiet. She was sent back to the house without the wedding ceremony. She said she was shy. But halfway through the banquet, I heard a woman crying in the house. Then, the bride ran out. I could see clearly from where I was. Her hands were tied with ropes."

"what!"

"The old widower's surname was Wang. When he saw the bride running out, he was very angry. He stepped on his right foot and pulled the bride into the house and gave her a good lesson. At first, he beat and scolded her. The bride screamed and cursed at the widower Wang, but later, the noises became strange. They stayed in there for a long time before coming out. When the widower Wang came out, he pulled up his pants and pouted at the door, but the bride did not come out. After he came out, he went to drink with everyone again."

"I don't like that kind of environment, so I came to play with Sister Wang."

Shen Zhizhu and the other two looked at each other, and all of them showed some disbelief on their faces. Mrs. Wang was straightforward and just said "Puh".

"What bad luck, we have the same last name."

Aunt Li is a mother, and she couldn't help feeling uncomfortable after hearing these words.

"I never thought that the old couple in the Shen family were such wicked people. They are so crazy about their own daughter. They are simply desperate for money. Shen Xiaojie is already in jail, but they are so eager to sell their daughter for the money. I don't know who to use it for."

Shen Zhizhu snorted coldly. She knew that Shen Jianjun and Li Chunlan were selfish, but she didn't expect that they would actually sell their daughter, whom they had spoiled for many years.

"I've seen Shen Aiqiu's grades, and they're not low. I guess they're worried that Shen Aiqiu will work hard next year and get into another province, which would be hard to control."

Because Shen Ai Qiu had talked back to them before, and they had this experience as a lesson, they were afraid that if Shen Ai Qiu became successful one day in the future, he would not respect them, let alone give money to Shen Xiaojie to get married.

If this is the case, it would be better not to let Shen Ai Qiu have any future. Instead, they would just sell him like an item for a good price. They would save the money and wait for Shen Xiaojie to come out.

Since they can send their own women away, there must be other families who, for the same reason of money, ignore the fact that Shen Xiaojie had been in jail and send their daughters to their home.

What a good calculation.

Aunt Li took a deep breath and didn’t want to knit the sweater she was knitting anymore.

"Although Shen Aiqiu came up with a lot of bad ideas behind our backs, I still feel that she shouldn't be punished like this. But after all, she's not our daughter, so we can't control that much."

Shen Zhizhu shook his head.

"Aunt Li, you can't say that. Our marriage is based on mutual consent. It's not like a hundred years ago when we had to follow the orders of our parents and the matchmaker."

Then she asked about the friend that Mrs. Wang brought.

"Did you see the dowry that Shen Aiqiu brought with her when she got married?"

The man thought about it carefully and shook his head.

"No, it was the bride's father who carried her over, put her in the house and left. He didn't take anything with him."

Shen Zhizhu curled her lips and smiled. She knew that those two selfish guys said that they loved Shen Aiqiu, but they just wanted to show off their own virtues in the village. There was no real love at all.

Otherwise, Shen Ai Qiu's status would not have declined day by day after she left that home.

Dowry?

In their opinion, Shen Ai Qiu has become an object, and how can an object be worthy of being a dowry?

"That's easy. We'll go to the city and file a report that Shen Jianjun and Li Chunlan are illegally trafficking in human beings. We'll ask the police to intervene. Their betrothal gifts are much higher than those of ordinary families. According to what this friend just said, Shen Aiqiu must have been drugged and taken there. If we act quickly, the drugs may not have been thrown away yet, and the drugs in Shen Aiqiu's body can be detected."

Knowing that there was a deep conflict between Shen Ai Qiu and Shen Zhi Zhu, Aunt Li and Sister Wang looked at her with shining eyes.

This made Shen Zhizhu a little confused.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Xiao Zhu, you are really the kindest girl I have ever seen. The whole family treated you so well, and many of their ideas were suggested by Shen Ai Qiu. Not only did you not mind, you were also willing to help her. You are such a good person."

Mrs. Wang and her friends nodded on the side.

"And you were able to find a way to deal with it so quickly. That's amazing. Is this the brain of a scholar?"

Shen Zhizhu was a little amused.
