Chapter 408 Remarried Widow 1
Yuanchun traveled through time again and was reborn as a thirty-year-old widow.
This was in 1980, just a few years after the college entrance examination was resumed. It was an era of reform and opening up, and the whole country was full of vitality.
But the Mei family was shrouded in gloom and sadness.
The original owner was named Mei Yuanchun, 30 years old. Her husband Chen Dagang was crushed to death by a collapsed coal mine a few days ago. Although the coal mine paid a large sum of money as compensation, the Mei family lost their main source of income and without a labor force, the money they had was gone.
In her previous life, the original owner was tricked into marrying by a village auntie one month after her husband died.
The original owner was an only child, and her dead husband was a live-in son-in-law. The original owner and her dead husband had four children in total, three boys and one girl. The eldest son was only ten years old, and the youngest son was only three years old. Mei Yuanchun took her youngest pair of children and married to her second husband's family, leaving the two eldest sons in the Mei family to carry on the family line.
However, the original owner's remarriage plunged her into a life like hell.
The second husband was a wimp and foolishly filial. He listened to his mother-in-law in everything. His mother-in-law was a mean and vicious old woman. After the original owner's two children arrived at her in-laws' house, they were forced to work in the fields.
My daughter, who was only five years old, had to learn to wash clothes and cook. My son, who was only three years old, also had to do some work within his ability, such as cutting grass for pigs, digging wild vegetables, and picking dead branches for firewood.
At the beginning, the original owner felt sorry for her two children, but her mother-in-law said that her family was not raising children for free, and if she wanted to keep the children here, the children would have to work and support themselves.
The original owner tried to argue for a few sentences, but her mother-in-law ordered her second husband to beat her up severely and snatched away all the compensation money from the original owner's deceased husband.
The original owner had no one in her family, and no one stood up for her when she was bullied. She could only swallow the injustice she suffered.
She had no money and couldn't get a divorce, so she could only live a hard life with her two children in her husband's home.
The original owner's two children had never been to school and had never received any education. They had always been working at home, getting up earlier than chickens, sleeping later than dogs, working harder than cows, but never having enough to eat, and thus ruined their bodies.
Although he was very young and weak, he still had to endure beatings and hunger, and forced himself to work in the fields despite his illness.
My son was eighteen years old and worked himself to death.
When my daughter was fifteen years old, she was sold to a mountain village by her mother-in-law to be the wife of an old widower in his thirties. Later, she was beaten to death.
Later, the original owner became ill and was bedridden at the age of 50. Her husband's family didn't want to raise a useless person, so they threw her to the Mei family. The two eldest sons resented her for abandoning them and hated her to the core. Especially after learning that their younger brothers and sisters were killed by their stepfather's family, they didn't want to take care of their mother anymore, so they threw the original owner to an abandoned house where no one lived, leaving her to fend for herself.
The original owner was starved to death.
After the original owner died, she regretted remarrying.
After she remarried, she failed to protect her two children, who died tragically. She also failed to take care of her two older sons, forcing them to work in the fields to support themselves at a young age.
She regretted so much and felt sorry for what she had done.
She died with her eyes open.
Even if you die, you can’t go to hell.
Her soul was filled with regret.
"Please, help me live my life again. I don't want to remarry. I want to raise my four children well, pay for their education, help them get married and start a family, and find a good husband for my daughter so that they can live a happy life. I know that I am weak and incompetent, and I can't do these things, so I beg you, I hope you can help me do it."
At the end of the memory, the original owner's soul left these words.
After accepting the memory, Yuanchun sighed deeply.
If she were to say, the original owner had brought it upon herself. She had a house and a lot of money. It would be great for her to live on her own with her children. In a few years, when her two sons grew up, they would help with the work. Why should she remarry?
The compensation money for the dead husband was given to that vicious family for nothing.
He let his two daughters work like slaves for others for more than ten years. In the end, one daughter died of exhaustion, and the other daughter was beaten to death.
Hey……
