Rebirth has space, and the new love sends the bad husband to prison

Liang Sumei lazily leaned on the sacks of the oxcart, her feet casually hanging outside the cart, and the worn wheels made a "creaking" sound. As the oxcart slowly moved forward, the body of the cart rose and fell from time to time, and her feet swayed gently with it. At this moment, she felt very comfortable.

Since her rebirth, a series of upsetting things have come one after another, making her extremely tired. At this moment, this rare leisure time finally gave her a chance to breathe. The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the distant mountains, the breeze gently brushed her hair, the cicadas and frogs chirped one after another, everything was so peaceful and beautiful. She gently closed her eyes and reveled in the present.

"Girl! Girl!" The voice of Mr. Li's call rang softly beside Liang Sumei's ears, waking her up from her deep sleep. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, looked at Mr. Li with a smile on his face, smiled back, grabbed the handrail of the ox cart, jumped lightly, thanked him, and set off on the way home.

When Mr. Li disappeared at the end of the fork in the road, Liang Sumei looked around and saw that there was no one around. She quickly climbed up the nearby hillside, picked up a bundle of firewood, and took out two fat rabbits from the space mall and hid them in the firewood pile. All of this was a plan she had discussed with her mother last night. If anyone at home asked, she would say that she had gone up the mountain to collect firewood early in the morning.

Carrying a heavy load of firewood, Liang Sumei walked to the village entrance and ran into Jiang Fu's younger brother Jiang Cai. Jiang Cai was riding a bicycle back and forth at the village entrance, and the little hooligans beside him looked at the bicycle with envy.

"Hey, sister-in-law," Jiang Cai greeted Liang Sumei in a sarcastic tone when he saw her.

Liang Sumei ignored him and walked straight ahead. Jiang Cai, however, was unwilling to give up. He caught up with her on his bicycle and patted the seat with a playful smile, signaling her to sit on it: "Come on, sister-in-law, I'll take you home."

Liang Sumei just smiled faintly and shook her head to express her refusal.

"Brother Cai, I don't appreciate your kindness." Seeing this, the little thug on the side couldn't help but laugh. Jiang Cai was so angry that he cursed at the man, then turned to Liang Sumei with a sinister smile on his face. "Sister-in-law, I heard that Liang Wang ate that thing called... duck egg pancake, which is made with our white flour. I am the deputy head of the defense corps, but I am not as lucky as him. Sister-in-law, why don't you make a few for me today, and I can also test the cooking skills of my brother and his wife." After saying that, he patted the chair impatiently and asked her to sit on it in a tough attitude.

Liang Sumei knew that Jiang Cai was going to force him to go to the Jiang family. She smiled disdainfully: "Jiang Cai, last time you took my sister's mushrooms, your whole family got diarrhea. Have you forgotten so quickly? Do you want to have that taste again?"

Jiang Cai's face changed after being hurt by Liang Sumei's words. He said hatefully: "Liang Sumei, just wait and see! When you marry my brother, you will suffer the consequences!" He was still frightened by the last experience of diarrhea. He had diarrhea more than ten times that day and finally fainted in the toilet, covered in filth. Therefore, he was full of hostility towards the two sisters of the Liang family and was determined to find a reason to take revenge.

Liang Sumei ignored Jiang Cai's threat and said calmly, "Let me marry your brother first."

"From what you said, you still want to escape the marriage?" Liang Wang frowned, obviously dissatisfied with Liang Sumei's answer, "I think you haven't been taught a lesson by Old Lady Liang enough. Brothers, teach her a lesson again!" He called the little thugs around him and prepared to pounce on Liang Sumei.

Liang Sumei saw that the situation was not good, and immediately turned around and ran. However, she was still a step slower, and one of the men grabbed the rope that tied the firewood tightly, making it impossible for her to break free.

At this moment, Liang Sumei caught a glimpse of Jiang Cai's bicycle from the corner of her eye. She suddenly had an idea and seized the opportunity to grab the back seat of Jiang Cai's bicycle and pull it back. Jiang Cai was caught off guard and fell heavily to the ground along with the bicycle.

"Ouch, ouch!" Jiang Cai cried out in pain, holding his butt. Seeing this, his younger brothers no longer cared about Liang Sumei and ran over to help him up.

Liang Sumei took the opportunity to break free from the restraints and ran away quickly.

Liang Sumei didn't dare to stop and ran all the way to the door of her house, panting for breath. When she just entered the house, she found Old Mrs. Liang walking back and forth anxiously in the yard.

When Mrs. Liang saw Liang Sumei coming back, her heart finally settled down. She didn't believe Luo Jinqiu's excuse of going up the mountain to collect firewood, so she called the whole family together. Except for the injured Liang Guangli, everyone was sent out to look for Liang Sumei. She was afraid of complications, so she didn't tell the Jiang family about Liang Sumei's disappearance.

Liang Guangchuan and Luo Jinqiu did not want to delay earning work points because of this matter, so they went straight to the fields to work after leaving the house.

Only Song Yazhi actually went to look for Liang Sumei. However, she couldn't stand the hardship of climbing in the hot summer, so she just strolled around the village and went back home.

Liang Qing stayed at home to teach Liang Wang how to read. Old Lady Liang had high hopes for this grandson. She felt that Liang Wang was smart and clever and would definitely achieve great things in the future. Moreover, a fortune teller once said that Liang Wang had a full forehead and a square chin, and that his future was limitless. He would probably become a great figure in the future. These words made Old Lady Liang more determined that her precious grandson would become a high official in the future. Therefore, she paid special attention to her grandson's cultural education.

Liang Qing was very clear about this, so she often used teaching Liang Wang to read as an excuse to avoid doing farm work. After all, compared to the heavy, tiring and boring farm work, teaching her brother to read and write was much easier.

Old Mrs. Liang glared at Liang Sumei, who had disappeared for a day, and her anger rose: "You little bastard, you are wandering outside without knowing the time!" While cursing, she raised the crutch in her hand and prepared to hit Liang Sumei.

However, Liang Sumei was one step faster than her. She quickly threw away the firewood on her back and turned around to run out. She was afraid that Jiang Cai would tell his parents about her falling down after returning home. If Li Haifeng and Jiang Dachang knew about it, they would definitely go to Liang's house and make a scene. So Liang Sumei decided to hide first and wait until the Revolutionary Committee came to arrest him tomorrow, then she could be truly free.

Sure enough, not long after, Li Haifeng brought her injured son Jiang Cai to the Liang family to angrily ask for an explanation. Jiang Dachang, for the sake of face, still did not show up. Jiang Cai walked with a limp, obviously sprained his ankle, and looked quite painful.

When Mrs. Liang saw Li Haifeng's aggressive look, she hurried over to greet him with a big smile on her face: "Hey, why are you here, in-law? Please come in and sit down! Liang Qing, go and get your aunt a glass of water."

Li Haifeng didn't appreciate it at all. She sat down on the stool, crossed her arms, and said straight to the point: "Old lady, my son was riding his bicycle today, and your granddaughter came up and pushed him. My son was almost crippled! Look, he's still limping now. Tell me, what should we do about this?"

Mrs. Liang's heart skipped a beat. She didn't expect that the little girl would cause such a big disaster. She hurriedly comforted her: "My dear..."

Before she finished speaking, Li Haifeng slammed the table with a loud bang. The sound was heavy and harsh, and she sneered, "Don't call me in-laws! There is no such thing as in-laws as you! You're bullying my son before you even enter my house. If you really marry into our family, you'll tear the roof off!"

Old Mrs. Liang was so frightened that she trembled and quickly changed her words: "His aunt, don't get excited. Su Mei is not at home now. When she comes back, I will make her kneel down and apologize to you."

"Mom, she's lying!" Liang Wang suddenly shouted, "I just saw Liang Sumei running back home!"

Li Haifeng became even more angry after hearing this. She stood up and pointed at Old Lady Liang's nose and threatened: "Old Lady Liang, you know how powerful my Jiang family is. If you don't give me a satisfactory explanation today, I will make sure that your Liang family can't hold their heads up in the village!"

"Aunt Li..." A gentle voice came from Li Haifeng's ear, "I saw Liang Sumei running in that direction." Liang Qing said, pointing in a certain direction.

However, Li Haifeng did not believe her words, she thought that the whole family was deceiving her, so she remained unmoved and sat firmly on the chair.

"His aunt, how about this? You just stay here for a while, and I'll go out and help you find her." Old Mrs. Liang was frightened by Li Haifeng's arrogance. After all, she was the accountant's daughter-in-law, powerful and influential, and she couldn't afford to offend him.

"Hmph! Old lady, are you planning to run away?" Li Haifeng asked in a sarcastic tone.

"Oh... his aunt, if you don't believe it, how about I take you to her room to have a look? I, an old woman, have lived for so long and lived here all my life, where else can I go?" Old Mrs. Liang explained helplessly.

"That's right! Liang Sumei has lived here since she was a child. Where can she escape to? I'm waiting for her here today. I don't believe she won't show up." Li Haifeng said confidently.

"Mom, how about we search every room?" Jiang Cai suggested.

At this time, Song Yazhi, who was watching the fun, was unhappy after hearing Jiang Cai's words. She didn't want this brat to enter her room and rummage around. So she hurriedly said, "Sister Li, calm down first, don't let that damn girl make you get wrinkles. Oh, I have always been surprised that you are older than me, but your skin is much whiter and tenderer than mine! Sure enough, wives of officials know how to take care of themselves better than us mud-legged people working in the fields!" Song Yazhi said, looking at Li Haifeng with envy.

Li Haifeng was very touched to hear these words of praise, but she still pretended to be indifferent and disdainful.

Song Yazhi continued, "This damn girl is very cunning! She knew you would come looking for her, so she ran out and hid in advance. If she hid in some wild man's house, it would be hard to find her!"

Old Lady Liang glared at Song Yazhi fiercely, fearing that she would say that she had lost her 50 kilograms of flour and food coupons. She quickly explained to Li Haifeng sincerely: "Auntie, Sumei is the child you have watched grow up. There are so many eyes watching her in the village. If she really got together with someone else, the news would have reached our ears long ago."

Li Haifeng sneered with contempt: "That's hard to say, old lady, you also know what our family conditions are, right? Although we can't say that we can eat rice and flour every day, at least we have no problem filling our stomachs. Which girl doesn't want to marry into our family? I just can't understand why Liang Sumei is not happy? She even jumped into the river to commit suicide. Does she have other ideas in her mind?"

"No, no!" Old Mrs. Liang waved her hands quickly, an anxious look on her face.

Li Haifeng snorted coldly, her eyes revealing dissatisfaction and suspicion. She put her hands on her hips and said firmly: "Regardless of whether there is a case or not, the recent events have made Accountant Jiang and I lose our patience. I think we should reconsider this marriage. After all, marriage is not a joke."

This sentence really scared Old Lady Liang! She thought to herself: "Oh my, I gave all the flour to my eldest grandson to make pancakes. If the Jiang family suddenly regrets and the gift they return is not enough, they will definitely ask me for compensation, which will be a loss of face and money! Now that things have come to this, Liang Sumei has to be forced into the Jiang family!" Considering this, Old Lady Liang said quickly: "Aunt, everyone in the village knows about our marriage. Jiang Fu is a promising child and is very adventurous. Sumei will enjoy the happiness of marrying into your family, and I, an old woman, can also benefit from it. I have always hoped that the two brothers Jiang Fu and Jiang Cai can become high officials in the town or county in the future, so as to help their younger brother Liang Wang."

Seeing the smug look on Li Haifeng's face, Old Lady Liang continued, "That girl Sumei is indeed a bit rash in doing things, and I often scold her. Fortunately, she has a weak temper. After she gets married, you just need to spend a little time and effort to train her, and she will definitely become like her mother..." As Old Lady Liang said these words, she carefully paid attention to the changes in Li Haifeng's expression, hoping that what she said would satisfy the other party.

"Old lady, you say it so easily, but the key is where are the people now?" Li Haifeng frowned and asked, patting the back of his hands.

"I'll ask someone to look for him right now, and I guarantee that he will be sent to your house tonight!" Old Mrs. Liang promised solemnly.

"How about this, I'll take the food coupons and flour back first, and when you send Liang Sumei to my house, I'll give these things to you." Li Haifeng suggested.

Song Yazhi knew clearly that once the things were in Mrs. Liang's pocket, they belonged to her son, so whether it was flour or food coupons, it was absolutely impossible for Li Haifeng to take them back. So she said to Li Haifeng seriously, "Sister Li, there are some rules here! The man sends the betrothal gifts to the woman's family just to ask for a good start. If the betrothal gifts are taken back, then the good start will be gone, right? Think about it, where can Su Mei go? Didn't Xiaocai see her at that time? She is in our village and can't run away. Even if she hides, our village is so small that she will show up sooner or later. Moreover, she is going to marry into your family as a daughter-in-law. Everyone in the village has to look up to your family. Who dares to take her in?"

After listening to Song Yazhi's words, Li Haifeng couldn't help but waver in her heart. However, when her eyes touched her son's limping foot, the reluctance in her heart surged up like a tide. She silently counted the days. Today is the second day, tomorrow is the third day, and the day after tomorrow is the day when Liang Sumei officially steps into her home. She just felt that time passed so slowly, as if every second seemed to be stretched. At the beginning, I really shouldn't have agreed to the three-day deadline for Liang Sumei! If I could bring this girl into the Jiang family earlier, then she could have trained her as a mother-in-law.

Li Haifeng pondered for a while, then turned to look at Mrs. Liang. "Grandma, it's not a good idea for us to just wait like this. It's not okay if we don't see anyone. In my opinion, we should notify Accountant Jiang and ask him to mobilize the villagers to go out and look for her together. After all, there is strength in numbers. Maybe we will find her soon." Mrs. Liang's eyes lit up when she heard this. She thought this was a great idea. She couldn't wait to find Liang Sumei and quickly put her in the Jiang family. In this way, she could sit back and enjoy the fruits of her labor without worrying about anything. Thinking of this, Mrs. Liang nodded in agreement. Song Yazhi on the side also breathed a sigh of relief, and seemed to feel a little relieved about this decision.
