After rebirth, my wife just wants to be a widow

Shen Ruoyan pulled Qin'er closer and saw that she was the wife of the shopkeeper of the clothing store.

The sky was getting dark, and she squatted in the alley, leaning against the wall, staring blankly at the ground in front of her. Her whole figure seemed to blend into the surrounding darkness, lifeless.

Hearing the footsteps, she slowly raised her head, revealing a haggard face with obvious bruises on the corners of her mouth.

Seeing that, Shen Ruoyan's heart tightened, she hurriedly knelt down and asked:

"Why are you here? What's with the injury on your face?"

Seeing Shen Ruoyan and Qin'er, the woman's eyes showed a hint of hope, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw in despair.

She murmured and asked:

"Are you really the lady of Shangshu Mansion?"

It turned out that Chun Niang had arrived in the afternoon. Looking at the luxurious door of Shangshu Mansion, she hesitated before summoning the courage to tell the concierge that she was here to see their young lady.

Chun Niang remembered the little girl who came to the store that day. Before leaving, she specifically told her that she was a lady from Shangshu Mansion. If she encountered any difficulties, she could come to Shangshu Mansion to find her.

Chun Niang originally thought this was a kind word and didn't take it to heart. But today, she was really desperate, so she came here with the last hope.

The concierge did not look down on her because of her shabby clothes, but actually brought Chun Niang to their young lady.

But the woman in front of her was not the one who came to the store that day, so Chun Niang had no choice but to withdraw.

After hearing this, Shen Ruoyan nodded and explained:

"You may have met my aunt's daughter. It's my fault that I didn't explain it clearly. What's the reason you came to see me today?"

At the clothing store that day, Shen Ruoyan had a particularly good impression of this gentle woman, and felt that she could see a shadow of her own past in her. If Chun Niang encountered any difficulties, Shen Ruoyan was very willing to help.

"I……"

As soon as Chun Niang said a word, her eyes couldn't help but gleam with water. She choked a few times and lowered her head again.

It was getting late and the alley was not a place to talk. Shen Ruoyan suggested:

"How about we go in and talk."

Chun Niang was still a little hesitant and squatted on the ground in a daze.

Shen Ruoyan stretched out her hand to pull her up from the ground, but as soon as she touched Chun Niang's arm, Chun Niang suddenly shrank back.

Sensing her reaction, Shen Ruoyan quickly lifted up Chun Niang's sleeves and saw that her arms were bruised and bruised, and there was no good spot at all.

Shen Ruoyan immediately guessed something and asked angrily:

"Are these injuries caused by the pig's head?"

When she mentioned sad things, Chun Niang bit her lip, and the tears gathered in her eyes fell one by one. In the end, she didn't say anything, and just asked in a low voice:

"Girl, can you take me in for one night?"

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Shen Ruoyan stopped asking who beat her like this and immediately took Chun Niang into the mansion and arranged a guest room for her to stay in.

Sitting in the clean room, Chun Niang carefully touched the soft quilt on the bed, looking a little at a loss.

Shen Ruoyan looked distressed, helped her apply the medicine, and said in a brisk tone:

"No one usually lives in this room, so you can live here with peace of mind. It doesn't matter if you stay for a few more days, let alone one night. Don't put any psychological pressure on us. We are all easy to get along with in our house. It will never happen." Someone said something gossipy."

Chun Niang pursed her lips and was too grateful to say anything. She could only nod towards Shen Ruoyan.

Shen Ruoyan smiled, lifted up a strand of hair that fell from Chun Niang's forehead, and carefully tucked it behind her ears.

She doesn't know why, but Shen Ruoyan always feels a special closeness to Chun Niang.

Maybe he saw the shadow of his previous life in Chun Niang.

The same timidity and cowardice, the same kindness and meekness.

They lived a well-behaved life and never harmed others, but they were forced into desperation by life.

From the first moment she saw Chun Niang, Shen Ruoyan liked her very much.

Now that Chun Niang is in trouble, Shen Ruoyan naturally wants to help her, just like she helped herself in the previous life.

Good people should live happily.

Seeing that Chun Niang was in a low mood, Shen Ruoyan wanted to give her time to have a good rest, so she stopped asking further questions and said softly:

"Chun Niang, I'll go back first. My yard is next door. If you have anything, you can come to me directly. You can have a good sleep today and let's talk about everything tomorrow."

Shen Ruoyan stood up and was about to leave, but Chun Niang suddenly grabbed the hem of Shen Ruoyan's clothes and asked:

"Miss Shen, can I have a few words with you?"

She is in a very confused mood now and needs a listener urgently to find an outlet for her emotions.

Shen Ruoyan sat back again and listened to Chun Niang slowly telling the story of her past.

It turned out that Chun Niang was an orphan. She was abandoned in the mountains when she was less than a month old. She happened to be picked up by an old woman who went to the mountains to collect medicine, and she was raised in their home.

The old woman was illiterate and thought that Chun Niang was a child she picked up in the spring, so she gave her this name.

Grandma's son died early, and there was only one daughter-in-law and grandson in the family. Chun Niang grew up with that child since she was a child. When Chun Niang was old enough, she naturally married him.

Life was good at first, but unfortunately it didn't last long. There was a flood in their hometown seven years ago.

Chun Niang and the old woman's family escaped.

On the way to escape, the old woman fell seriously ill and died before she could survive.

At that time, in order to rush on the road, they only found a quick space and buried the old lady hastily. Chun Niang cried heartbrokenly, but she had no choice but to follow her husband and his family to the capital.

They settled in the capital and took out all their family savings to open this material shop.

In order to make life better, Chun Niang helped her husband take care of the shop during the day, and at night she had to take care of the housework, cooking, washing, and serving her mother-in-law. She was busy from morning to night, and she didn't even have time to sit down and drink water.

As the days passed, Chun Niang got older.

Chun Niang was very envious when she saw that women of similar age to herself had children.

Whenever she heard other people's babies shouting "A'Niang" and "A'Niang", Chun Niang really wanted to hold her own baby and kiss his soft cheek.

But at that time, the shop's business was just picking up, so how could she have time to have a baby?

In the past, in order to save costs, they dyed many materials by themselves.

One winter, Chun Niang accidentally slipped into the dye pool and fell into a coma for several days. When she finally woke up, she found out the root cause of her illness.

The doctor said that she was suffering from cold and might not be able to get pregnant easily in the future.

I thought that if I didn't have children, I would at least have a family, but as the days got better and better, I didn't expect my husband to suddenly bring home a young woman.
