Jiang Wanqing opened her eyes suddenly. Cold rain was leaking down the dilapidated roof and dripping on her pale face.
"Are you awake? Get up as soon as you wake up! The Li family has come to break off the engagement, why are you still lying down and pretending to be dead!"
The sharp voice hurt her eardrums. Jiang Wanqing propped up her weak body and saw clearly the mean face in front of her - her second aunt Wang Xiuhua.
She actually came back.
Back when I was eighteen years old, the Li family broke off their engagement.
Memories of past lives came flooding back: his reputation was ruined after his engagement was broken off, he was forced to marry a violent gambler, his parents were forced to death by his best relatives, and he was finally kicked out of the house in the cold winter and froze to death at the entrance of the village...
"Why are you so stunned! The Li family are all in the main room, get up quickly!"
Wang Xiuhua lifted the thin quilt, and Jiang Wanqing's thin body shivered in the cold wind.
Her family was poor, so she only had two pieces of clothing that were fully patched. The one she was wearing now had been washed white and had holes in the cuffs.
"Second Aunt, where are my parents?" Jiang Wanqing's voice was hoarse.
"Where else can your sick father go? Lying on the bed waiting to die! Your mother is in the main room trying to make smiles to others!" Wang Xiuhua rolled her eyes, "If you ask me, the Li family is right to break off the engagement. How can a poor family like yours be worthy of the son of the director of the supply and marketing cooperative in this town?"
Jiang Wanqing clenched her fists and dug her nails into her palms.
This was the case in the previous life. Not only did the second aunt and her family not help, they actually made things worse. They were eager to see their elder brother's jokes.
