Chapter 6
Similar Lives But Different Fates
“If you’re willing, how about we arrange a marriage for your dead husband?” Jiang Xi turned to look at the girl in yellow sportswear. Her watery eyes were very moving, and she looked very serious when she spoke.
“Jiang Xi, what nonsense are you talking about? You’re cursing me, aren’t you? I’m not even engaged yet, and you’re saying that to me so viciously... You’re too much!” The girl in the yellow sportswear was flustered and exasperated. Tears were about to fall from her eyes.

At the corner, a young man with a bright face frowned and turned to leave. Jiang Xi’s fourth brother, Jiang Si, who was also the only brother in the Jiang family who was studying, followed behind him. This young man was He Tongwen, a famous young talent in the town. He Tongwen was a classmate of Jiang si and often visited the Jiang family.
The girl in the yellow sportswear was called Li Bao. She saw a figure behind her from the corner of her eye. She raised her sleeve to wipe her tears and covered the smug smile on her face. Then she looked at Jiang Xi and said, “Jiang Xi, you’d better stop thinking about He Tongwen. You’ve been rejected three times. I’m not fighting with you for He Tongwen. It’s He Tongwen who refuses to marry you!” After saying that, Li Bao stomped her feet and ran away in the direction that He Tongwen had left.
Jiang Xi looked at Li Bao’s back in confusion. She did not curse Li Bao! Li Bao’s next marriage would really cause her husband to die!
The original owner of the body had someone she liked. The Jiang family was not living well, but no matter how difficult the family was, the four elder brothers still doted on their only younger sister, Jiang Xi, very much. This also developed the original owner’s arrogant and unreasonable character. She even wanted to marry a scholar! The first person that the host liked was He Tongwen, a classmate of her fourth brother, Jiang Si. Most of the girls in the village were hardworking and could support a family by themselves. However, the original Jiang Xi was not like that. She was raised like a young lady from a rich family and never worked. This had long spread in the Happy Village and the villagers had gossiped a lot. Everyone thought that since Jiang Xi was the only girl in the Jiang family and she had four older brothers, she would not suffer no matter what. However, no one dared to marry her. Most of the people in the five villages around the town had heard of Jiang Xi. The news that she had been engaged three times, broken off three times, and hung herself three times but was still alive had long spread. He Tongwen’s family naturally did not agree to Jiang Xi marrying into the family. Jiang Xi’s magical physique was comparable to General Zhao Ruifeng, who was known to be the nemesis of his wife in their country.
General Zhao Ruifeng was twenty-two years old this year. He had been engaged seven times, and six of his fiancées had died. The only survivor had gone up the mountain to become a nun. Zhao Ruifeng was the country’s most famous general with numerous military achievements. He was famous for being a bachelor! However, no one dared to marry their daughters to him. It was said that even when the emperor summoned Zhao Ruifeng, he had to bring two protective talismans with him and had a group of monks guard the door, otherwise he would be afraid!
Zhao Ruifeng’s fate was probably not as good as Jiang Xi’s. After all, Jiang Xi was blessed with great fortune and could make a name for herself in the mental hospital. She and Zhao Ruifeng were typical examples of people with similar lives but different fates!
Jiang Xi was unfamiliar with this world and everything she saw was new to her. However, she could not stop thinking about her first fiancé, so she simply bought two pieces of cloth and ran to Qingfu Village. Her thin and weak figure seemed as if it could be blown away by the wind, which made Jiang Xi more and more ill.
The main gate of the Yang family in Qingfu Village was bustling with activity. A large group of people was shouting, “Welcome the bride! Welcome the bride!” There were more than ten tables of feasts set up outside the main gate of the Yang family. The suonas were playing, and the firecrackers were crackling. The children surrounded the bride and laughed. The matchmaker smiled and gave the children candies, then coaxed the children away with a bunch of auspicious words.
Yang Kun, who was dressed in bright red wedding clothes, was overjoyed. When he saw the bride walking over with a red veil over her head, he felt as if a cat was scratching his heart. Fortunately, he did not marry Jiang Xi. That wretched girl did not even allow him to touch her. He did not even want to touch her bean sprout-like body, which could be blown away by the wind! Yang Kun, who had just tasted sex, thought of the night he had with the bride on the haystack and felt his heart skip a beat. It was better for women to be plump! The more Yang Kun thought about it, the more his eyes lit up. He felt embarrassed and his heart beat faster.
Yang Kun’s parents also looked at the bride with satisfaction. When their eyes fell on the dowry behind the bride, their eyes were even more satisfied. The dowry was really generous!
