The Fat Wife of the 1980s Awakens

Through the introduction of her neighbors, she married her first husband, a widower in his forties with a child.

At the age of 25, although she was considered old for being unmarried, she seemed to be at a disadvantage in terms of marriage experience.

However, years of hardship made her, who was only in her twenties, look as old as a middle-aged woman. Her face was haggard, and if she said she was the mother of his younger brother and sister-in-law, outsiders would have no doubt.

In fact, there was no obvious age difference between her and the widower in appearance. However, the man not only did not look down on her, but instead gave her endless care and protection.

He never let her do any heavy work, and when he noticed that she was malnourished, he did his best to buy meat for her to supplement her nutrition. He left all the delicious dishes on her plate, while he himself happily swallowed the simple meals.

Therefore, when Xiaojun entered the joy of childhood at the age of four or five, she also quietly stepped into the threshold of thirty.

Although she cannot return to her youth, the traces of time have not left too many wrinkles on her body. In the eyes of outsiders, she still looks like she is in her thirties.

However, after a series of setbacks, including the death of her widower, the expulsion of Xiaojun by her stepson, and the rejection of her younger siblings whom she had raised with great effort, she entered into marriage again and married Fang Kai...

Recalling the past, the beauty and happiness in Zhou Dani's heart have become as faint as the morning mist. The ups and downs she has gone through over the years have turned into a tranquil lake in her heart, without any ripples.

At this moment, she suddenly accepted herself in a suit and light makeup. She no longer tugged at her clothes in a reserved manner, but generously showed off this fashionable outfit. She gently asked her son: "Is it true? Then Mom will dress like this in the future, okay?"

"Uh-huh!"

Xiaojun nodded vigorously, his eyes sparkling with excitement, "Mom, you look so beautiful like this!"

"it is good."

Zhou Dani rubbed Xiaojun's head lovingly.

"Mom, I want to be beautiful too!"

Weiwei held her mother's hand and said expectantly, "I want to wear a beautiful dress like Xiaoyun!"

"of course can."

Zhou Dani also gently stroked Weiwei's delicate face. Her slightly thin fingers formed a sharp contrast with Weiwei's round and smooth skin.

Weiwei was strong in the womb. After she was born, as Fang Kai’s first biological child - and perhaps also the last one, Fang Kai doted on Weiwei and always put her first in the delicious food at home. As a result, Weiwei became a lively and cute little fat girl!

"Mom will go make some money later, and then go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy cloth to make new clothes for Weiwei and brother. I will make Weiwei a skirt as beautiful as Xiaoyun's, and make brother a set of clothes as handsome as Sanbao's. How about that?"

Zhou Dani suggested.

"Dad is rich!"

Weiwei said innocently, "Why not just let Dad pay?"

Weiwei doesn't yet understand the delicate relationship between her parents. Both her father and mother have poured their love into her, especially her father, who she always speaks of with pride and trust.

Zhou Dani had a calm expression as she gently combed her daughter's hair: "Dad does have a lot of money, but Mom also has her own savings. When Mom's money runs out, we can ask Dad for help, okay?"

"Ok."

Weiwei nodded in agreement.

Xiaojun was well aware of the subtlety of this. He secretly glanced at his mother and whispered, "Mom, can you make a new piece of clothing for Dad, too?"

"Don't worry, how could I forget him?"

Zhou Dani responded with a smile.

No matter how much rift there was between her and Fang Kai, Fang Kai was her husband after all, and she never evaded his responsibilities and obligations.

Xiaojun felt relieved. Although he did not have a deep emotional connection with Fang Kai and even felt that Fang Kai was closer to Sanbao than himself, deep in his heart, he was deeply grateful to this stepfather who gave them shelter.

As for the memory of his biological father, Xiaojun has very little left.

As far as he can remember, it was fragments of life after his father passed away. Those warmth and sadness were closely intertwined in the years when he and his mother depended on each other.

In the fight for their biological father's inheritance, they were driven away by their ruthless brothers with farm tools. They were displaced and eventually had to return to their mother's family. However, every time they asked for help, they were met with cold rejection and sarcastic words from their relatives...

His mother could only take him to sleep on the edge of the field. As the night fell and the stars twinkled, the only sounds around were the chirping of insects and the fragrance of rice. The mother and son cuddled together, using their worn-out clothes to resist the coolness of the night. They ate wild vegetables picked from the fields. Although they were bitter, they were enough to fill their stomachs. They drank the clear river water that meandered through the fields. Although it was simple and cold, it was also the source of life.

Until the end, when life seemed to have reached a dead end, it was Fang Kai, the taciturn but kind-hearted man, who gave them a home to shelter from the wind and rain...

It was a simple but warm little house. Although the walls were old, they blocked the wind and rain from the outside world. A dim light illuminated this once shaky little family, allowing love and hope to take root here again.

"sister in law!"

The sudden call from outside the door, with a bit of urgency and familiarity, interrupted Xu Xiufang's thoughts.

"Hey!"

Xu Xiufang stood up in response, with a gentle smile on her face, and walked quickly to the door.

Outside the door, Fang Kai's figure came into view. He was wearing a work suit stained with sweat from hard work, and his steps were firm, as if he was the most reliable guardian of the family.

"Didn't you say you were going to sell clothes? Are you ready? Brother Yi asked me to come back and go with you guys."

Fang Kai's words were full of family-like care.

Xie Yi knew very well that today was the first time Xu Xiufang and her friends tried to set up a stall. He was worried about three weak women walking alone, so he specially sent Fang Kai as a strong backup.

Xu Xiufang nodded gratefully and pointed to several baskets that had been prepared.

Those baskets are filled with clothes that they have carefully selected, in bright colors and various styles. Each piece carries their hope to change their destiny.

"Everything is ready, just these things," she said with a hint of nervousness and anticipation in her tone.

Upon hearing this, Fang Kai smiled heartily, then strode forward and prepared to move the goods.

Inadvertently, his eyes fell on Zhou Dani, who was wearing baggy pants and an ill-fitting suit jacket, looking a little funny yet cute.

Fang Kai was mesmerized for a moment, with a subtle emotion flashing across his face.

"What's wrong?"

Zhou Dani noticed Fang Kai's gaze, lowered her head and fixed her clothes, and asked shyly, "Doesn't it look good?"

"No, it's pretty nice."

Fang Kai came back to his senses, his cheeks slightly red, and he quickly changed the subject. He bent down a little awkwardly and picked up the heavy basket.

Seeing this, Zhou Dani chuckled and stepped forward, offering to help support the cart. The silent understanding between the two made Xu Xiufang and Xie Chunyan, who were standing by, exchange meaningful glances.
