Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space

”Old Yuan, don’t drink like that, it’s bad for your health. You still have two women to take care of and the kids too.”

Yuan Xinyun smiled bitterly, ”They all hate me to death, do they still need me to take care of them? Xiao Wei, you don’t know, I really like Mingzhu, but I was wrong from the start. Now that I’m trying to make amends, she won’t give me a chance.”

”Eat some food, we can talk slowly, it’s convenient to talk here.”

”Xiao Wei, at that time I took a liking to Mingzhu at first sight, she was so young, so beautiful, but back then she only had eyes for you.

I was jealous then, so I thought I had to have her. Women, once you have their bodies, will follow you loyally.

So I forced her, and she always stuck with me for the next few years. I was conflicted then; if I’d really divorced for her back then, I think it wouldn’t have turned out this way.”

Wei Kaiyun was a loyal listener, not saying much. But he indeed knew a bit about their matters.

”Xiao Wei, you don’t know, ever since I had Mingzhu, I’ve never touched my wife. I was disgusted with that woman then. But now that she has ruined my reputation, I no longer hate her. Isn’t it strange? What is this all about?

Back then, I felt liberated, I could rise again. My in-laws indeed helped me, which is why I didn’t file for divorce, causing harm to both of them.”

”Things have passed.”

Yuan Xinyun shook his head, ”It hasn’t passed, you don’t know, I heard about Mingzhu’s suicide attempt, I didn’t even have the will to live, so I came despite the disdain from above to pick her up.

Seeing the beautiful girl with gray hair, I felt very uncomfortable inside.

I want to live well with her, now there’s no one between us, but she strongly opposes it.

At that time, I thought I could make a name for myself here, I, Yuan Xinyun, certainly could.

But everything went wrong, nothing worked.”

Listening to his complaints, Wei Kaiyun also felt quite unfortunate; Yuan Xinyun is talented. If he picks himself up, he’d definitely succeed. Even if he doesn’t reach his previous level, he would definitely be better than now.

”Xiao Wei, you’re over thirty, really not thinking about starting a family?”

”I want to start a family.”

”That’s right, you’re more disciplined than I am, don’t be like me. But you should be careful when choosing a woman; if my wife had a bit of sense, things definitely wouldn’t be like this.”

Wei Kaiyun suddenly put himself in his shoes, if this happened to him, Jiang Xinyu probably wouldn’t make a fuss, she’d just leave decisively. She is probably too disdainful to make a fuss, right?

Through Yuan Xinyun’s words, Wei Kaiyun became clearer in his heart that he absolutely cannot make mistakes. The consequences are not something he can bear.

Spit, spit, spit, spit, this kind of thing won’t happen to me at all. Even when I was unattached, I never indulged; now with the woman I love and my child, it’s even more impossible.

Yuan Xinyun drank a bottle of baijiu, feeling groggy, lying on the bed, while Wei Kaiyun tidied up the room but didn’t leave, deciding to stay.

This person drank so much in a bad mood, just worried he might get into trouble, so I better stay.

At noon, Jiang Xinyu went home by herself, she knew Yuan Xinyun would come over today, and also knew Wei Kaiyun must be eating outside.

”Mom, Dad?”

”Dad has work. Was Shi Jing good today?”

”He was good.”

”Good, such a good baby. Mommy is going to check on little sister.”

Feifei was already awake but was very obedient, playing with her eyes open.

”Xiao Jiang, Feifei is so good, so adorable. I’ve never seen such a child.”

”Come to mommy, why is our baby so good?”

Jiang Xinyu wiped with a warm towel, but the child wouldn’t eat, finally getting anxious and crying.

”What’s wrong with Feifei? She should be hungry, right? I last fed her at nine.”

Jiang Xinyu noticed the child seemed to be using all her strength to resist.

Jiang Xinyu had a sudden thought; could this child not want to eat this way?

”Aunt Bai, please bring the bottle.”

Once Jiang Xinyu expressed half a bottle, she picked up her sleeping daughter and put the nipple in her mouth, she saw her open her eyes, try it, and then start gulping eagerly.

Jiang Xinyu didn’t blink her eyes watching this child, very shocked inside, what’s the matter? Could this child have crossed over too? Otherwise, how would such a small child know this?

Now the child is eating with eyes closed, she really hasn’t noticed anything, will observe slowly in the future.

Because she’s preoccupied, Jiang Xinyu didn’t eat much.

”Xiao Jiang, what’s wrong? Not appetizing? Eating less isn’t good.”

”Aunt Bai, I have no appetite today, it’s okay.”

After the meal, she played with Shi Jing for a while, lay beside her daughter for half an hour, then went to school.

She was tangled in her heart, how could her daughter cross over, hard to accept. The child’s chance of rebirth is small; otherwise, she wouldn’t reject breastfeeding. But the child seems fine, so probably it’s like the novels say, fetus crossing, just pretend not to know, otherwise she can’t move past this hurdle herself.

Wei Kaiyun stayed in the room with Yuan Xinyun, honestly feeling uncomfortable, not seeing his daughter for several hours, yet having to accompany this person?

But since he came all this way, it wouldn’t be right to not host him. Next time, he’d invite him to dinner, definitely no alcohol.

When Yuan Xinyun woke up, seeing Wei Kaiyun still there.

”Did I hold you up?”

”No worries, are you feeling unwell?”

Yuan Xinyun shook his head, ”I’m okay. Venting helped a lot with my mood. Thanks, Xiao Wei.”

”No need to thank, we’ve known each other for over a decade.

And rest assured, I’ll find a way to get your eldest son into a textile factory, if he’s unwilling, I’ll think of something else, there are plenty of factories.”

”Alright, you really think things through, the kid probably won’t want to go to the textile factory, you make the arrangements.”

”Let’s go out for dinner tonight, and no drinking.”

”Sure, let’s go, you go back and rest well.”

The two had dinner, then returned to the room. Yuan Xinyun explained the situation in Xinjiang to him.

”I guess someone else is there.”

Wei Kaiyun laughed, Old Yuan is still like this, unable to let things go. He should now be living his life steadily.

So he just laughed without responding.

”Xiao Wei, go back and rest, it’s getting late.”

Wei Kaiyun stood up with a smile, ”I’ll treat you to breakfast tomorrow.”
