The Fat Wife of the 1980s Awakens

When Xie Chunyan heard this, she didn't know how to respond for a moment. She and Zhou Dani didn't have a deep friendship, but because of Xu Xiufang, she was willing to believe and support her.

"Then you better be careful."

Although this sentence is simple, it contains all her care and worry.

Zhou Dani and Xu Xiufang smiled at each other. This understanding and support made their hearts more closely connected.

"okay."

Zhou Dani smiled and nodded, her heart full of gratitude.

As the story progresses, the relationship between Xie Chunyan and Zhou Dani becomes deeper because of Xu Xiufang.

Xie Chunyan helped Zhou Dani obtain scraps of cloth many times, and Zhou Dani repaid this friendship with practical actions. Every transaction was full of warmth and gratitude.

These seemingly insignificant actions have inadvertently woven a warm interpersonal network, allowing them to support each other and move forward together in the torrent of this era.

As for the story of Xu Hengwen and Zhou Lijuan, it was the beginning of another emotional entanglement.

In that particular historical context, their meeting was full of drama, and also foreshadowed the twists and turns and tests in their future emotional journey.

Xu Hengwen's inner struggle and Zhou Lijuan's persistent pursuit are silently telling people's profound thoughts about love, ideals and reality in the context of that era.

But on second thought, having the same surname does not necessarily mean a blood relationship. This thought was like a sudden spring breeze that gently blew away the doubts in Zhou Lijuan's heart.

Moreover, whenever Xu Hengwen received those letters, his face was always filled with joy that was hard to conceal. Could it be that... behind this joy, there was some unknown secret?

A subtle sense of crisis crept into Zhou Lijuan's heart. She tried to keep her tone calm and curious, and asked carefully: "That address is not in Beijing, could it be... sent by the person you like?"

Her eyes flickered, trying to capture the slightest change in expression on Xu Hengwen's face.

"No," Xu Hengwen answered quickly, almost reflexively. Then he realized that his reaction might be too hasty, so he cleared his throat and tried to cover up his previous gaffe. "My sister sent it."

There was an unquestionable firmness in his words.

Zhou Lijuan's mood seemed to brighten up as the warm spring sun. She looked at Xu Hengwen with a smile, her eyes flashing with understanding and relief, "Oh, I see."

Her smile was warm and inclusive, as if all suspicions had disappeared at this moment.

However, Xu Hengwen always felt that there was something more to Zhou Lijuan's words. Her bright eyes seemed to be silently telling more meanings, but he was unable to accurately grasp the deep meaning for a moment.

Zhou Lijuan continued to ask casually, "You and your sister have a good relationship, right?"

Her tone was relaxed, but she seemed to be testing something.

"Well," Xu Hengwen mentioned Xu Xiufang, and a gentle smile naturally appeared on the corner of his mouth, "My sister is the only girl of the same generation in our family. She is the apple of the eye of the family. Everyone pampers her like the apple of their eye."

His words were full of love and pride for his sister.

Zhou Lijuan raised her eyebrows. She originally thought that a man like Xu Hengwen, who kept a certain distance from women, would not have any other women occupying an important position in his life except his mother.

Unexpectedly, he actually has a younger sister, and from his description, his love for this sister is almost beyond words.

Zhou Lijuan's curiosity was completely aroused. "What kind of person is she?"

She pressed, her tone full of anticipation.

When Xu Xiufang was mentioned, Xu Hengwen seemed to be less defensive towards Zhou Lijuan, and he appeared gentler and more approachable.

He pondered for a moment, his smile gradually faded, and he said with a bit of helplessness and doting disdain: "He's just a naughty boy."

"What?"

Zhou Lijuan opened her eyes wide in surprise. She never expected that Xu Hengwen would use such words to describe his sister.

Naughty ghost?

This word formed a sharp contrast with the beloved jewel of the family that Xu Hengwen had mentioned before, which made Zhou Lijuan feel both surprised and curious.

"She was very willful," Xu Hengwen explained, with a hint of helplessness in his tone. "She fell in love with a man who had no interest in her, and went to the countryside without telling any of us. In the end, she married an ordinary man in the countryside, gave birth to several children, and couldn't return to the city, but she still told us that she was doing well, which made us very worried."

At this point, Xu Hengwen's tone revealed a barely perceptible hint of anger and heartache.

Xu Hengwen became more and more excited as he spoke. It was not until two years ago that he learned that his sister had gotten married.

At that moment, he couldn't believe his ears. The little girl who always followed him had become someone else's wife!

Moreover, the groom was not Zhou Qifeng as they had always thought, but another man he had never heard of! This was undoubtedly a huge shock to Xu Hengwen.

Xu Hengwen has loved Xu Xiufang since childhood and knows how deep her feelings for Zhou Qifeng are.

In his opinion, if it weren't for Zhou Qifeng, his sister would never choose anyone else easily. Unless there were some unspeakable difficulties, with her personality, she would never give up Zhou Qifeng easily.

What was going on? Zhou Lijuan was a little confused for a moment, unable to tell whether this was a dramatic turn of events in reality or a story deliberately made up by Xu Hengwen to get rid of her questioning, in order to hint to her that for an absent-minded lover, the result of persistence would often only be a broken heart.

She suddenly had an idea and gently patted the lunch box in Xu Hengwen's hand, leaving a sentence "Don't forget to finish it, don't waste it", then hurried away with a hint of complicated emotions, leaving Xu Hengwen with a meaningful back.

Xu Hengwen looked at Zhou Lijuan's leaving back with some surprise. He didn't expect that she would end the conversation so abruptly.

Without hesitation, he picked up the package at his feet and turned back to the dormitory.

As I entered the dormitory, the first thing that caught my eye was my sister's letter.

When he read the news in the letter that a little niece had been born, a gentle smile appeared on his lips.

As the pages of the letter turned, the sister not only shared trivial matters in her life, but also asked about his emotional state with concern, encouraging him to let go of the past and cherish the person in front of him.

Zhou Lijuan's figure involuntarily appeared in Xu Hengwen's mind, and he was silent for a moment.

Finally, he spread out the letter paper, picked up the pen and began to reply to his sister's letter seriously.

After finishing the letter, he slowly opened the package. What was hidden inside?

"Wait a little longer," Xie Yi's breathing was rapid, and every word seemed to be trying his best to calm something. His eyes were full of anxiety, as if he was eager to soothe her inner anxiety. That impatience made it seem as if he himself was waiting for some important moment.
