"Zhou Shun, the forced melon is not sweet. If it really doesn't work, then forget it!" Father Zhou's helpless voice carried a bit of vicissitudes.
Now that his son and daughter-in-law were in such a mess, he, as a eunuch, felt uncomfortable.
"Forget it? Dad, you don't have to worry about it. I won't let it go! Lin Wanyue is born to be a member of our Zhou family. If she dies, she will be a ghost of our family. If she wants to be with the itinerant peddler in this life, there is no way!"
During the conversation, neither of them noticed that Lin Wanyue, who was lying on the brick bed, had her eyes closed and trembled a few times. A line of tears fell into her black hair along her eyes.
Hearing the footsteps gradually leaving, Lin Wanyue opened her eyes. On the yellow roof, there was a heated brick bed in the room, a peach wood table, and two wooden boxes. On the table was a palm-sized bronze mirror. Lin Wanyue lifted the quilt and picked up the bronze mirror to have a closer look. The person in the bronze mirror had a pair of big watery eyes, curved eyebrows, and white skin like white jade. Looking at his face alone, he was no worse than the young lady of a small family.
Lin Wanyue thought to herself that she was really blind in the past. That was why she felt that only the itinerant peddler was sincere to her in this world.
Everything in front of her was clearly something she was familiar with. Could it be that she had an illusion? She clearly remembered that she had slept for a while. How could it be ten years when she woke up again? A bold guess popped up in her mind...
Could it be that God thought that she had done too many wrong things in her last life and gave her a chance to be reborn so that she could make up for the mistakes made in her last life?
Lin Wanyue was so happy that she burst into tears.
She remembered that she eloped with the itinerant peddler. Both of them were very powerful people. Soon, they spent all the money she stole from the Zhou family. Without the money, it was difficult for her to move. Finally, she was bought by the itinerant peddler in a brothel. She didn't want to pick up guests in the brothel, so she deliberately scratched her face with a gold hairpin. As a result, she was beaten and thrown into the woodshed as a fire girl.
In her previous life, she had been possessed by the itinerant peddlers on the street. In order to be with him, she did not hesitate to ruin her reputation and elope with him. In the end, she was sold to a brothel by him. In this new life, she had to restore her relationship with Zhou Shun. She had to be a loving couple for a long time with Zhou Shun, as well as a father and a mother. She would definitely do her duty as a daughter and be filial to them. She would never let them feel ashamed because of her.
"Lin Wanyue, get up to eat!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Bao stepped into the house.
Hearing Zhou Shun's voice, Lin Wanyue hurriedly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeves. When she saw Zhou Shun, she didn't know how to face him.
Lin Wanyue twitched the corner of her mouth. She wanted to smile more beautifully, but she showed a smile that was uglier than crying, which made Zhou Shun feel upset for no reason.
"Who do you think you're doing this for? Do you think I'll let you go just like that? I'm telling you, there's no way! Don't even think about it. If you want to be with a itinerant peddler in this life, you should give up this idea as soon as possible!"
After saying that, Zhou Shun rushed out of the door. For some unknown reason, Lin Wanyue's tall back looked a little embarrassed.
Lin Wanyue was not affected by Zhou Shun's words at all. She knew very well that she had done a lot of wrong things these years. If she suddenly said that she would be better in the future, let alone Zhou Shun, she would not even believe her own mother. Only by giving time could she naturally prove that she really regretted it after a long time.
Lin Wanyue tidied up her floral dress and walked out of the room into the kitchen.
The villager didn't pay much attention to their meals. They usually ate in the kitchen. After eating, they washed the bowls and chopsticks quickly and neatly.
On a low square table, there were six black faces with a bowl of salty vegetables. The three open bowls were filled with half a bowl of porridge. Old Mr. Zhou and Zhou Shun had already sat down at the square table. The two of them each took a nest to eat. Lin Wanyue looked at the black face with a nest and found it hard to swallow.
In her previous life, she had been in the brothel for ten years, so she did not feel that she was picky about food. But now, facing the dry black face and nest, she could not eat anymore.
Zhou Shun's face darkened as he said coldly, "There's only this little black flour nest left in the house. If you like it or not, don't call it hungry at night!"
Lin Wanyue only realized that Zhou Shun was talking to her after drinking half a bowl of porridge. She hurriedly nodded and said, "I know."
Lin Wanyue really wanted to do something for the family. It seemed that Zhou Shun and his father would not cook well.
"Father, in the future, I will cook for you at home. Anyway, I have nothing to do at home. You and Zhou Shun work so hard every day. Go home and have a good rest."
Mr. Zhou's eyes widened and he looked at Lin Wanyue in disbelief. Then he turned to look at Zhou Shun, who was as surprised as him. He nodded and agreed.
"Lin Wanyue, what on earth are you going to do? Let me tell you, I, Zhou Shun, will not let you and the itinerant peddler be together. You should give up this idea as soon as possible and don't try to play tricks."
Zhou Shun's eyes widened and his dark and stern face was covered with frost.
Lin Wanyue looked up and took a deep breath. She tried hard to suppress her anger and said patiently, "What can I do? I just want to share your hard work." After a pause, Lin Wanyue added, "Zhou Shun, I really regret it. I really want to make peace with you so that we can live a good life in the future, okay?"
Zhou Shun didn't say a word. He looked at Lin Wanyue with obvious doubt in his dark eyes.
Mr. Zhou laughed happily. In his heart, he hoped that his son could have a cold and warm person, instead of quarreling every day.
Lin Wanyue pretended not to see Zhou Shun's doubt and secretly cheered herself up. "One day, Zhou Shun will be moved by his sincerity. They will definitely be together."
After dinner, Lin Wanyue went to wash the pots and bowls in the big water tank in the yard.
Through the yellow window paper, Zhou Shun greedily looked at Lin Wanyue. He could see her every move clearly. Although he couldn't see her expression clearly, Zhou Shun also knew that this time, it might be a plan that Lin Wanyue used to be with the itinerant peddler, but he was willing to do so.
Looking at his son's silly look, Father Zhou sighed helplessly.
Lin Wanyue put the washed bowls on the stove, poured the warm water on the stove into the basin, and went to the room to wash.
Although the rules in the countryside were not as strict as those in the city, women's ankles would be criticized in front of outsiders.
Father Zhou put his hands behind his back, went out of the yard, and went to sleep in the east room.
Zhou Shun waited in the kitchen for a long time and did not see Lin Wanyue come out with a basin in her hand. She lifted her foot and entered the room.
