Before she married over, Liu Hongxia remarried the widower from the Qin family in the brigade when Luo Zheng was seven years old, and subsequently gave birth to two children.
After marrying someone else, she had no intention of taking care of her ex-husband's children, especially after having her own children. Luo Zheng lived alone in the old house left by his father, taken care of by his aunt Luo Aixian.
These were the things that Luo Aixian told her intermittently later on.
Not long after she and Luo Zheng got married, the conflicts between them erupted.
She resented him for ruining her love and dreams, and abhorred his despicableness. Luo Zheng remained silent for a long time, and later left her some money, telling her to remarry if he died outside, then left without looking back, and never returned.
On the day she gave birth to Da'an and Xiaoru, the brigade leader returned from the county with news about Luo Zheng, saying that he had died in an accident while transporting goods.
For her at that time, it was like a bolt from the blue.
So, at the age of nineteen, she became a widow, and her two children lost their father.
But the reborn Shen Ning knew that Luo Zheng didn't die. He came back later and even erected tombs for the two deceased children.
He wanted to see her, but she refused. With the children gone, the only bond between them disappeared. She was in pain and refused to see him until her death.
With the wave of reform and opening up sweeping across the country, she actively engaged in entrepreneurship, set up stalls, and did wholesale, but due to lack of experience, she lost everything.
Luo Zheng always appeared when she was down and out. She truly hated him. Even if she became a beggar with nothing, she didn't want his charity and pity.
So she hit him, scolded him, and even bit him, just to make him disappear from her sight.
Fortunately, she encountered a benefactor in her life. With the benefactor's help, she picked herself up, learned to do business and manage, started a factory, and eventually went into partnership to run a hotel business. Her career flourished, but success and wealth did not bring her any happiness. Da'an and Xiaoru were a permanent pain in her heart.
She never remarried, never had children again, and her later life was brilliant yet lonely.
She once prayed to the heavens, willing to exchange her success and health for a reunion with her two children. She thought that the heavens couldn't hear her, until Shen Yu maliciously killed her.
Da'an pumped the bellows, seeing his mother lost in thought, he moved a small stool to the stove and started cooking some sweet potato rice.
Although he was young, children from poor families matured early. Sometimes when Shen Ning was busy working in the fields, he would help with cooking simple meals.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
Early in the morning, the door was banged loudly.
Da'an's nerves jumped, and his eyes showed fear.
Then Liu Hongxia shouted, "Lao Zheng's daughter-in-law, the sun is already shining on your backside, and you're still keeping the door closed. Both children are waiting for you to take care of them. Don't be lazy and sleep in."
Da'an ran over, looking at Shen Ning nervously, "Mom, you can't agree to Grandma..."
Grandma never liked him and his sister, and never treated them well. Yesterday, Grandma came to ask Mom to lend the house for her younger uncle's wedding.
Although he was young, he knew Grandma's habit of borrowing without returning, and he was worried that Mom would really agree.
Shen Ning patted her son's head. Her son had also advised her like this in her previous life, but she didn't take it seriously because it was just a child's talk.
As a result, she ended up with nowhere to go, forced to remarry and seek shelter at her parents' home.
