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

The snow fell heavier and heavier. The bright yellow warm light in the house made the people feel warm. They had already eaten and drunk enough.

Xu Haonan also cleaned up the table, washed the pots and pans, and found something to use as a trash can. Shen Zhizhu and Aunt Li were eating melon seeds and chatting.

Xu Haonan and Erdan were playing chess. It would be more accurate to say that they were two students studying how to make moves according to the book rather than playing chess.

Because Shen Zhizhu found this chess set when he was visiting the supply and marketing cooperative, Xu Haonan had never played it before and Shen Zhizhu didn't know much about it, so he bought it and planned to play it together to kill time.

I also bought some books about chess, and when I was leaving, I saw Go and bought that too.

It just so happened that snowflakes were flying outside, and inside the house, the two of them, one big and one small, were studying chess manuals. Nothing could be more heartwarming than the current environment.

"Xiao Zhu, tell me, Shen Aiqiu will be alone from now on. Will she be so depressed that she will commit suicide?"

Shen Ai Qiu, suicide?

"Impossible. Although Shen Ai Qiu has some pride, she doesn't have the courage to commit suicide. Moreover, although I was once in their family and I was the punching bag of the whole family, Shen Ai Qiu was not very popular. She knows it in her heart, but she has been deceiving herself and is unwilling to admit it."

"Although what Li Chunlan and Shen Jianjun did was beyond the expectations of ordinary people, she was not unaware of it. She bet that her parents would not be so cruel, especially after Shen Xiaojie went to prison. She thought that she would be the only child of her parents and would be loved like never before. However, reality gave her several slaps in the face, and it was a little hard to accept."

"She'll recover in a few days. There's no need to worry about her."

After two lifetimes of entanglement, perhaps in the whole family, I should be the one who knows Shen Ai Qiu best. What's more, I am not the only one who hates Shen Xiaojie.

Shen Xiaojie has been arrogant and self-willed since he was a child. He often ignores Shen Aiqiu and bullies her from time to time.

Aunt Li cracked some melon seeds and nodded in agreement.

"Oh, so that's how it is. But she's the only one left at home now. Will she develop some kind of problem from holding it in?"

People have always felt pity for creatures weaker than themselves, and have also sympathized with those who have suffered disasters, such as Shen Ai Qiu.

After this incident, the people in the village felt more distressed for her. After all, what Shen Ai Qiu did had no direct impact on them and was mostly directed at Shen Zhizhu.

"She is always so nosy that she beats her parents up. Her brother, who has been exploiting her since she was a child, is also in jail. She enjoys a big house all by herself, and all the money in the family belongs to her. What problems can she have? She is not that kind of person. Don't worry."

Aunt Li nodded and looked at the two people who were studying hard over there.

"Look at them, they are studying really hard, but I don't know how they are doing with their studies."

"We have finished reading the basics and have memorized most of them. Now let's prepare for the real game. Mom, Xiaozhu, who do you think will win?"

Shen Zhizhu stood behind Xu Haonan and put one hand on Xu Haonan's shoulder. The meaning was obvious.

"Of course I support my husband. He will definitely beat you."

Aunt Li also joined in.

"Then I'll guess my son. Erdan will win."

Xu Haonan felt the warmth coming from his shoulder, and he reached out his hand to cover Shen Zhizhu's hand, stroking it twice.

"Since Ah Zhu said so, I must win this game. Erdan, I will not show mercy."

Erdan touched his nose with his thumb and folded his arms.

"Humph, we learned it together, don't brag, I will definitely beat you in this round, let Sister Xiaozhu see what it means to be pushed forward by the waves behind!"

Both of them made harsh remarks. The red side moved first, and then the two of them played seriously. People who have just learned to play chess always think about what chess pieces of the opponent they have eaten, and move forward all the way, killing ghosts when they meet them.

Soon, there were not many pieces left on the chessboard. The two of them were in a stalemate for a long time, and there would be no result if they continued like this.

They discussed it and tried again.

This time, the two of them learned from the experience of the previous game and were more thoughtful with every step. Shen Zhizhu could understand some of it, but Aunt Li didn't understand anything at all and was just joining in the fun.

"Boom boom boom!"

There was a knock on the door. Aunt Li saw that the three people were focusing on the chessboard. It was already dark outside, but because of the snow, the view was still somewhat clear.

She couldn't see clearly by looking out the window, so she put on a coat and went out. As soon as she went out, she shivered because of the wind.

When I arrived at the door, I found that it was Du Manjun.

"Manjun? Why are you here? It's late at night and it's snowing heavily outside. Do you have something to do with Xiaozhu and the others?"

Du Manjun's family had a grudge against Shen Zhizhu. His father Du Zaide even suggested that Shen Xiaojie set fire and kill people on the eve of the exam. Shen Zhizhu then called the police and sent the man to jail.

There was hatred between the two.

Not knowing what the other party meant, Aunt Li did not open the door directly to let the person in, but just opened a small gap.

Du Manjun lifted up the things he had brought.

"Aunt Li, I didn't know you were here too. I've figured it out these past few days and know that my father was wrong. Although my father has been brought to justice, Shen Zhizhu and Xu Haonan have not been compensated for their losses."

"So I brought some things from home and wanted to apologize, but I think they probably don't want to see me now. Since Aunt Li is here, please help me bring these things in and convey my attitude and apology."

Du Manjun thought it was Aunt Li who opened the door, and that Shen Zhizhu and his wife didn't want to see him, so they stayed in the room and refused to come out.

He put the things on the ground at the door, then walked back and gradually disappeared from Aunt Li's sight.

On the smooth snow, there were only two sets of footprints, one when Du Manjun came and one when he left.

"This kid has put a lot of stuff in there. It's really heavy."

After Aunt Li confirmed that the other party had left, she opened the door and brought the things in. She returned to the house with the things and felt the warmth.

"Aunt Li, why did you go out just now and bring something back?"

Shen Zhizhu and the other three focused all their attention on the chessboard and did not hear the knock on the door outside.

Xu Haonan sat there with little expression on his face, but Erdan lowered his head, looking a little depressed. Seeing this, Aunt Li knew that Erdan had lost.

She rubbed Erdan's head.

"It was Du Manjun. He brought these things and said he wanted to apologize to you. These are some compensation."

With Aunt Li's comfort, Erdan instantly recovered.

"Brother Haonan, let's continue. I don't believe we will lose the next game!"
