Chapter 7

n her past life this lifetime, but can she really keep up"Snap!" Suddenly, a chopstick struck Ning Yuan's forehead.Ningyuan let out an "ah" and almost burst into tears.Xia A Po rolled her eyes to the...Li Yan saw the girl with large eyes in front of him, and his stern expression softened.

He stepped forward: "Ning Zhiqing, we are all of the same ilk. Don't be afraid, we are here to protect you and severely punish the bad elements!"

Ning Yuan's expression was complex and dazed.

She has been married to Li Yan for decades and there isn't the kind of exaggerated plot you see in most novels, like being killed by her husband and a mistress.

Li Yan was born into a family with an honorable background. He was just and impartial in his dealings, and became the youngest team leader at the commune at a very young age.

They were introduced to each other when she cut in line, and they later fell in love freely.

Li Yan later studied at the Lin Institute and became a promising young cadre in a state-owned enterprise.

By the time he reached thirty, he had already become the youngest provincial-level cadre in the state's enterprises at that time.

And she had always just been a regular worker, and everyone said she got lucky, becoming the director's wife.

As Zhang Ailing once said, life is like a brocade robe, with lice crawling inside.

She worked too hard at the silk factory, working three shifts a day. Even while pregnant, she had to do housework. She was exhausted day and night and miscarried three times. Finally, he wanted a child so he helped her get transferred to an accounting position so she wouldn't keep miscarrying.

He was so busy with work that he hardly went home for a year. He disliked that she couldn't give birth to a son and had a low level of education, and they had nothing in common.

He has a bad temper and yells at people at home if anything goes wrong.

...Later on....

He had a talented female reporter at his communications agency who was his beloved.

Ning Yuan knew that Li Yan must have thought about divorcing her many times.

But due to social influence, the female reporter waited for him for ten years, and in the end, they still didn't get together.

It seems like everyone in the family's compound knows what's going on, but she can only pretend to be oblivious.

She earns a low salary, and divorce is frowned upon for people of her generation.

Everyone said he was just having a fling outside of marriage, that men have homes in their hearts and don't mind if she can't give birth to a son. She burned incense with all her might hoping for the best.

...Possible.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Every night, she stared at the ceiling until dawn, her tears soaking her pillow. During the day, however, she still put on the facade of a dutiful wife and mother, managing the household.

As days went by, Ning Yuan developed severe depression and couldn't sleep at all night after night.

Depression won't attack others like a person with schizophrenia, but it attacks the patient themselves.

She retired early from her workplace, and her health began to deteriorate. She experienced various immune problems, backaches, leg pains, and overall discomfort.

This is a glimpse into the lives of countless virtuous wives and mothers from previous generations.

Ordinary and quiet, yet pain is like a dense and prickly needle pricking at the bottom of my heart.

Every night, she would imagine countless times, if she could go back to the beginning, would she still marry Li Yan

And you, would you marry your husband again in this life

......

Ning Yuan stared blankly at the face before her.

Let Li Yan also somewhat worriedly reach out and pat her shoulder: "Ning Yuan"

Ning Yuan jumped back instinctively, several steps at once: "Don't!"

Li Yan's hand froze in mid-air. Several people around her, wearing red armbands, also looked at each other in bewilderment. What was wrong with this female educated youth

Ning Yuan took a deep breath, calming herself down, and managed to force out a smile. "I'm sorry, I was just a little shocked."

Li Yan looked at the girl with big eyes in front of him, her face pale. He felt pity for her: "It's okay, the team will take care of you and won't let the bad guy get away!"

Saying that, he glared fiercely at Rong Zhaonan who was leaning against the wall.

Rong Zhaonan stared at Ning Yuan with an impassive expression, taking in her strange reaction.

What is the relationship between the little agent and this battalion secretary The way they look at each other, it's not normal.

"You hooligans, what are you looking at Get down on the ground and behave yourselves!" Several red-armbanded comrades saw Li Yan speaking and immediately rebuked Rong Zhaonan.

Ning Yuan subconsciously looked at Rong Zhaonan.

He was very tall, wearing black-rimmed glasses, his head bowed, his bangs covering half his face. He looked pale and submissive, squatting against the wall.

Ning Yuan unconsciously took a few steps forward, blocking Rong Zhao Nan's face: "Don't do this, he didn't bully me, he didn't do anything wrong."

All the Red Sleeve Badges were stunned. Li Yan's face grew serious again: "Ning Yuan, don't cover up the bad elements out of fear!"

Ning Yuan took a deep breath and looked at Li Yan: "No, I'm not afraid, nor am I condoning bad people. I was just talking to Dr. Rong about marriage."

Li Yan's face turned pale, and he looked at Ning Yuan with some disbelief.

Although they haven't officially confirmed their relationship or started dating, it's clear that they have a good connection.

He several times went down to inspect the work of the Xiaocun team and assign tasks to the commune, and when he saw her, they all had a lot to talk about.

Her eyes looked at him with a mixture of shyness and joy. They made an appointment to meet again and officially start dating.

This morning I heard that Ningyuan had an incident last night, he immediately brought people over, he always believed she was innocent, someone must have bullied her last night.

Why......

Before she could pierce the window paper and confirm their relationship, she changed!

Several Red Scarf members looked at Li Yan's face, which was ashen. They were momentarily bewildered, unsure what was happening

They also knew that the young squad leader was a handsome young man renowned for miles around.

Many girls like Li Yan, but he seems to have fallen for a female educated youth. It is said that she was bullied by bad elements and he came over early this morning.

But looking at the current situation, it seems more like Li Yan is acting impulsively without thinking things through, isn't he

Ning Yuan averted her eyes, no longer looking at Li Yan. She clenched her fists and said, "I don't know who spread the rumors, but I and Dr. Rong have already applied for a marriage certificate in the village. We're going to pick it up tomorrow!"

God gave her a second chance at life, and she didn't want anything to do with Li Yan!

She needs to change her way of living this life, she'll never... never walk the old path again. She won't live in depression for the rest of her life.

I wasn't brave enough before, afraid to take a chance. Now, those who have passed on deserve to be bid farewell!

Li Yan stared at her blankly, feeling a kind of pain he couldn't describe in his heart.

It feels like something is being let go of.

He gritted his back teeth and clenched his fists: "Since... I'm glad Ning Zhiqing wasn't bullied, that's good. I have work to do, I'll go first!"

Saying that, he turned and strode away.

The rest of the Red Scarf Brigade looked at each other in surprise, then immediately followed suit.

In no time, the area around the cowshed was quiet.

Ning Yuan couldn't help but redden her eyes, leaning weakly against the wall.

She... was truly about to say goodbye to her past life completely, her heart both aching and filled with anxiety.

Rong Zhaonan patted his pants, stood up, and looked in the direction Li Yan had left. "Is that young clerk your object He seems to look down on me."

Ning Yuan rubbed her temples wearily: "No, Li Yan is very upright in these aspects, he would never take revenge on you because of me."

Although Li Yan wasn't really a good husband, nor a good father.

He was exceptionally upright in his work throughout his life, a rare example of someone who lived a simple and honest life.

Although he held power in his hands, he was never corrupted and never acted for personal gain.

Don't say that you bribed him with money. Even if someone gave him a basket of imported fruit, he would either refuse it or turn it in.

He lived an honest and upright life, his wife and daughters rarely benefited from his position. He was a truly incorruptible official!

Look, people are just so complex.

Rong Zhaonan watched Ning Yuan speak of Li Yan in a familiar tone, he raised an eyebrow —

You know him very well. Why not ask him to help you out of your current predicament There's no need to marry me.this dirty bowl might actually be an antiqueTang Lao nodded.
