The village is quiet at night, with the occasional dog barking.

I endured the pain and struggled to sit up from the kang, and looked back at the drunken Liu Zhijian behind me, who was still holding a broken broom in his hand, which was used to beat me just now.

The ground was in a mess, the dishes and dishes were shattered on the ground, and he was still muttering: "Broken shoes, no one wants to marry me, and you dare to keep your mouth shut, see if I don't kill you!" ”

I combed my hair in front of the mirror, and when I raised my hand slightly, the tears of pain fell down, half of my face was blue, my lips were all broken, and I was haggard, like a woman in her early thirties, almost the same as a woman in her fifties and sixties.

Tomorrow morning, my mother-in-law, Sun Ping, will definitely say when she sees me and is beaten again: "Who made you want to climb the high branches!" After a long walk around the city, don't you still have to come back and marry my son? Your reputation and age, our family wants you to be good! It's good to have a baby! ”

My father-in-law would say, "a fart!" She is in her thirties, and she hasn't been born after being married for so long? Hurry up and let her go! ”

"Their family still owes our family 500 yuan, if we don't earn that money back, we will lose a lot of money, even if we can't live, we have to stay here and work for us to farm!" And the face to say divorce? I think it's just a lack of beating! ”

I wiped my tears and put on the padded jacket that my mother had bought for me before she died. But this is the only thing I wear without patches, and I want to walk beautifully.

I looked at Liu Zhijian's cruel and ugly face, and thought of the life I would live in the next few years and decades, and a sense of despair suddenly arose in my heart.

I got up, pushed the door open, and walked out.

Walking to the lock of the courtyard to open the door of the house, my mother-in-law Sun Ping was carrying a glass of vinegar water to our house to give his son a hangover.

I walked away quickly, or she would soon find out that I had escaped, and someone would have found me to arrest me and beat me up.

Passing by Liao Qiang's house, a two-story small building stands, a large iron gate more than two meters high shows his identity as the richest man in the village, and a room on the second floor is lit, and there is a faint sound of laughter.

Zheng Sisi's son has just reached the full moon, and the two of them live happily. And this happiness is obtained by stepping on my flesh and blood.

With tears in my eyes, I walked forward on the thick snow, and the sound of the wind was whirring in my ears, and my feet were already frozen and unconscious, and my brain was a little numb.

It's here! There was white smoke at the mouth of the well, and the water was faint, reflecting my shadow.

The mother-in-law's shout sounded behind him: "Catch Nizi, this slut has escaped again!" Clean her up! ”

The dogs in the village were awakened and barked.

Everyone in the family turned on the lights one after another, the shouts of the neighbors were getting closer and closer, and the lights of dozens of flashlights were flickering, and I didn't want to be caught and beaten by them, so without any hesitation, I turned over and jumped.

Thump! The icy chill swept through my body, my nose and mouth kept choking a lot of water, the cotton jacket sucked the water, and slowly sank with my body, the scolding in my ears gradually stopped, and I stopped struggling.

I felt so cold and weak that suddenly I couldn't help but sneeze. A hand pressed against my forehead, and I felt a chill.

"Nizi, wake up, don't scare Mom."

I heard my mother's voice, and my heart moved, wasn't she dead? Am I in the underworld?

When I opened my eyes, my mother was looking at me with tears in her eyes, her haggard face, wearing a shabby cotton jacket, but her hair was black, and she seemed to be very young?

Seeing that I woke up, my mother smiled with relief. And there were two people standing next to her. It's Liao Qiang and Zheng Sisi.

He had become much younger, wearing a large sheepskin jacket, his eyes were clear, his face was smooth and flat, there were no ugly scars, and there were no gaps in his mouth.

I opened my mouth wide in surprise, Zheng Sisi was wearing a fashionable black cotton jacket, red cotton leather shoes on his feet, long braids hung on his chest, and bright eyes blinking, worthy of being a village flower, really good-looking.

And everything around me is what it was more than a decade ago, and I'm ...... Reborn?

I sat up and looked around, the old hut, the walls were covered with torn newspapers, the roof was blackened, and a small thirty-watt light bulb was lit above my head, dimly lit.

Mom was anxious to hold me: "Nizi! What's wrong with you? Is it a fever and stupid? ”

"Mom, I'm fine, I'm fine." After I finished speaking, I coughed violently a few times, my lungs ached slightly, and I had no strength at all, so I fell to the ground again.

Mom helped me in a panic: "You girl, don't be stubborn, hurry up and rest!" ”

Liao Qiang smiled and said to Zheng Sisi behind him; "I said it's okay, she will wake up sooner or later, and you're still worried!"

Zheng Sisi bit her lip and said with tears in her eyes: "It's all Nizi who I'm tired of, I'm worried about her." After she finished speaking, she hurriedly came over and grabbed my hand with concern: "Nizi! You're really scaring me to death! You're really going to drown in it, what can you do, auntie! ”

Mom also wiped her tears and said, "Yes, Nizi, you can be honest in the future!" It really scared my mother to death. ”

I finally remembered that this was when I was sixteen years old, and Zheng Sisi said that she wanted to eat a fresh river fish on her birthday, pestering me, and I, as her best friend, of course had to meet her request.

I followed them to the ice to fry fish, but accidentally fell into the ice hole, but fortunately Liao Qiang saved me. I was in a coma for two or three days before I woke up. My mom has been over there thanking Liao Qiang.

Liao Qiang smiled: "It's not a big deal, don't keep saying it, I'm embarrassed." ”

"You're so brave! So many people didn't dare to save people, so you went! Zheng Sisi smiled at him, with admiration in his eyes.

Liao Qiang turned his head and looked at her, although the two had just met, their relationship warmed up quickly.

"Nizi, do you still want ice fishing, I can teach you." Liao Qiang suddenly smiled at me.

"I'm here for Sisi, I don't like fishing, and I won't take risks in the future." I calmly looked out the window.

The moonlight shone on the snow in the courtyard, and it was cold outside, and his smile made my heart colder than the sky outside.

Liao Qiang was my first husband in my previous life. Zheng Sisi knew him because of this incident, and soon the two got married, but soon Liao Qiang chopped wood in the mountains, disfigured, and broke his leg, from a handsome young man full of charm, to a cripple who was disliked.

Zheng Sisi didn't want him anymore, so her father forced me to marry him under the pretext that Liao Qiang hugged me and had a skin-to-skin relationship when he saved me, and a lifetime of loneliness began.

"Nizi, what's wrong with you? Are you still uncomfortable? ”

I came back to my senses and saw my mom looking at me worriedly.

I hurriedly smiled and said, "I'm fine, I just feel a little cold!" ”

"Then lie down quickly. Mom will get you a bowl of ginger soup later. ”

At this time, Liao Qiang said goodbye, he was my savior, but when I thought of the things in my previous life, I was really not enthusiastic about him, so I said a slow word, closed my eyes, and didn't look at him.

Liao Qiang was sent out by my mother enthusiastically, I heard his laughter in the yard, thinking of how indifferent he was before I died, and his whole body was trembling slightly.

"Liao Qiang is leaving, why do you have such an attitude. Beware of people being upset. Zheng Sisi said with a smile.

I smiled and said, "Men and women don't kiss, I'm just worried that if my attitude towards him is too good, he suspects that I have other plans for him, wouldn't it be boring, my mother just talk to him." ”

This is what he has been saying to me since I got married to Liao Qiang: "You just married me because you had other plans for me, right?" ”

Although I served his mother for a few years and helped him get back on his feet, and most of the wealth in his hands was earned by me getting up early and working late to open a snack bar and help him earn it, he still treated me coldly, thinking that I had an insidious purpose before marrying him, and because I was engaged to Liu Zhijian, I said that I was a woman who hated the poor and loved the rich, and her reputation was rotten.

I cried aggrievedly, but Liao Qiang felt annoyed, drove me to sleep outside, and then made a sweet call to Zheng Sisi.
