"Zhao Shanhe, I'm on my period and you still want it. Didn't I just give it to you last night? Why don't you have enough?"
"My own mother-in-law, I can eat it whenever I want!"
With a snap, the man's slap fell heavily on the woman's face, causing it to swell instantly.
But suddenly, the man's eyes went dark, and he shivered.
Immediately, a woman's sobbing sound came to my ears.
Pity and grievance are mixed together, which makes people feel distressed.
After a moment's pause, he opened his eyes.
This is an old mud-brick bungalow of less than 30 square meters. The exposed beams above the roof are rotten, and they are held up by a few pillars to prevent it from collapsing. The surrounding mud walls are covered with layers of newspapers on the left. , all turned yellow.
There were a few pairs of rag shoes for working on the dusty concrete floor. There was no decent furniture in the whole house, and the only dining table was made of wooden boards and a few foreign nails.
What a cold cave.
Zhao Shanhe is very familiar with it.
This was his home decades ago.
May 3, 1988.
The eye-catching characters on the Gregorian calendar card made Zhao Shanhe's scalp tingle.
Is this...rebirth?
He couldn't believe it, but when his eyes fell on the sobbing woman beside the bed, he felt astonished as if he had lived in another world.
I saw a woman in her early twenties, with long black hair pulled low, and a few broken hair hanging on her forehead. Her skin was like cream, and her swollen face was pitiful and heart-wrenching. Even the face that was red from crying was Both eyes are as beautiful as red spring flowers.
There was a sleeping girl next to the woman. She looked about three or four years old, with two pigtails. She looked as cute as if she had bubbles in her breasts while sleeping. She looked exactly like the woman. .
The woman's name is Su Wan and she is Zhao Shanhe's wife, while the girl is their only child. Her first name is Zhao Huanyan and her nickname is Yanyan.
Seeing his wife and children close by, Zhao Shanhe's tears came out of his eyes, and he sighed sharply, his heart hurting like a knife.
He was truly reborn, back to the time when he was so poor that even his underpants had to be patched.
Zhao Shanhe was extremely excited and wiped the tears from his face, but Su Wan's eyes were full of sadness and she turned her face away, unwilling to look at him.
Zhao Shanhe understood that all this was caused by himself.
If you want to blame, blame yourself for being a murderer of thousands of swords!
Back then, he was a worker in a furniture factory, earning a salary of thirty-five yuan a month. Although his life was difficult, he had a beautiful wife and gave birth to a lovely daughter. Many men in the factory envied him. blessed.
But just a few days after enjoying this blessing, he started to squander, met a few gangsters, got into gambling, and his family fortune was completely ruined.
If you don't have money, you borrow it. If you can't borrow it, you steal it. You owe a lot of debt. You get drunk all day long. It's like you're crazy. If you win money and go home smiling, you're a good person. If you lose, you're a good person. When money comes home, he becomes a wolf-hearted beast who beats his wife and children to vent his anger.
Later, he even stole accessories from the factory and sold them to raise money for gambling. The factory leader found out and fired him. He was not allowed to live in the employee building of the furniture factory. He had no choice but to hide in Laomin Street for five months a month. Living in a dilapidated house where the money is almost gone.
The originally stable and good life was shattered by him.
In order to support her children, Su Wan found a job washing clothes for twenty-five yuan a month, which was barely enough to live on, but the money was stolen by Zhao Shanhe from time to time for gambling.
She was so angry that she could only say a few words, but what she got in exchange was a severe beating.
After the beating, he dragged her to the bed and did those disgusting things, which made her want to die. One night while Zhao Shanhe was asleep, she took her child and drank rat poison and committed suicide.
The death of his wife and child made Zhao Shanhe wake up, but it was too late.
Even though he later gave up gambling, he turned around and worked hard. After decades, he went from a small vendor selling underwear to a big boss with a net worth of tens of billions.
But money made him numb. He missed his wife and children, and visited all the temples in the country, just praying to God to let him live again and make up for his mistakes.
Unexpectedly, his prayer actually came true.
"Yan Yan is awake, let's eat."
When Su Wan saw that the child had woken up, she held back tears and said coldly to Zhao Shanhe.
"Mom, did dad hit you again?"
Yan Yan's words made Zhao Shanhe's heart skip a beat.
I thought to myself that I was such a beast back then, how could I kill such a good wife?
"Honey, I'm sorry, I'm such an asshole."
Zhao Shanhe stood up quickly, pulled Su Wan, and touched her swollen face distressedly, but received a resentful look from Su Wan.
"You've been beaten, why are you here to admit your mistake?"
Su Wan's grievance was vivid on her face, but she suppressed it and didn't cry in front of the child.
She was in a lot of pain, but for the sake of Yan Yan, she could only break her teeth and swallow it in her stomach. Seeing Yan Yan grow up day by day and become more and more sensible, she was really afraid that her failed marriage would bring consequences to her. Yanyan leaves a shadow.
She sighed and her eyes fell on the shoe box at the door, where there was half a pack of rat poison that she bought for five cents on the street in the morning.
Five cents, no life.
It can be considered a cheap life!
When you die, you are liberated.
Involuntarily, her eyes turned red again, making Zhao Shanhe feel extremely distressed.
"Honey, I really know I was wrong. I swear, from now on, I will change my ways, quit gambling and drinking, work hard to make money, love you and cherish you well, and let you and your children live a good life. You believe me. Once, okay?”
Zhao Shanhe's body trembled slightly with excitement, and he swore sincerely with tears in his eyes, which surprised Su Wan.
Did such warm and sweet words really come from her own man's mouth?
Amelia Su didn't dare to ask for love, she just wanted to live a stable life.
But in the current situation, there is still famine, and it is not that easy to be stable.
"I hope you can keep your word."
Su Wan's cold words made Zhao Shanhe feel even more guilty.
He knew that he owed Amelia Su too much, and it couldn't be made up for in a few words.
"Yanyan."
Zhao Shanhe picked up Yan Yan. The three-year-old child should be as big as a dumpling, but Yan Yan was so light and pitiful.
His family was not rich to begin with, and he had used some money to gamble. Every meal at home was not even meaty, either carrots or potatoes. No wonder the child was so thin.
Zhao Shanhe touched Yan Yan's little face with a distressed expression and said, "Good daughter, dad will work hard from now on to make you and mom live a good life, a good life with good food and good food!"
Yan Yan had never seen such a gentle and loving father. Her eyes widened in confusion, and it took her a long time to utter a sentence: "Mom, did you change my father for me?"
"It hasn't changed. I'm still your biological father, but I've just changed my ways."
After saying that, Zhao Shanhe put down Yan Yan, picked up the apron and tied it around his waist.
Su Wan was stunned for a moment, and her face was full of confusion: "What are you doing?"
"Go make something delicious for you two!"
