Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space

Tao Yanzhen and Wang Menglin were inside the house packing things for the two kids, mainly clothes and food.

"Yang Zhongyi went to ask for leave. If he can get leave, he’ll go back with us."

"Xiao Zhen, just make your own decision."

"Hmm, just Yang Zhongyi. He asked me today if I’ve changed. He said he hasn’t changed."

Wang Menglin also knew the bitterness in her cousin’s heart. Now her family doesn’t insist that she must marry Yang Zhongyi. But Lv Guodong’s son is already running around; his family seems really loving.

Others don’t know, but as Li Xue’s sister-in-law, she surely knows best.

The young couple’s feelings are notably good. Guodong simply holds Li Xue in the palm of his hand.

Her cousin is someone who absolutely wouldn’t break up a family, so now it’s herself she can’t get past.

"Xiao Zhen, make yourself happy."

Tao Yanzhen laughed, "Cousin, I know."

"My mother-in-law prepared too many things, but it’s good now, there’s Yang Zhongyi to help."

"Cousin, your mother-in-law is really nice." Over the past few years, Tao Yanzhen was often invited over for meals. She also liked Qu Xiaoli very much.

"Yes, my mother-in-law is nice."

"By the way, my brother-in-law should be able to come back this year, right?"

"My father-in-law went to make a call. Told him to come directly to our house."

"That’s great, cousin, you’re really lucky."

Yang Zhongyi returned to the camp, went directly to find the commissar, and then called higher-ups to request leave.

After Yang Jiu Long put down his son’s phone, he called the leader. So, Yang Zhongyi’s leave was approved.

He went back to the dormitory, packed a set of clothes, and took extra money. He’d buy gifts once he arrived there.

Told the driver to drive to the city, bought four sleeper tickets, and then went to Li Family Village.

Told Tao Chunhe to come and pick them up tomorrow night.

This year, some educated youth went home too. New educated youth don’t have this opportunity.

Pan Xiaoying also applied to go home this time. She’s married now, to another educated youth from the same city.

Now she deeply regrets exchanging places with Yang Xiuqin for a thousand yuan. It’s said that Li Family Village has distributed that much money in the past two years.

And Yang Xiuqin even returned to the city. Although it’s said that it’s because she contributed to Li Family Village, Pan Xiaoying doesn’t think so, only thinking she lost the chance to return.

She feels that if she returned to the city, she wouldn’t have married another educated youth like Wang Hongjun, nor would she have suffered in Zheng Family Village.

But she doesn’t dare to show it because Wang Hongjun has a bad temper, and it was her scheming that got them married.

This time, both have the opportunity to return, even if it’s just for three months, but Pan Xiaoying is happy. After years away from home, she can finally go back and take a look.

When they arrived home in December, Pan Xiaoying realized there was no place for her anymore. Everything was just her wishful thinking.

Feeling extremely unbalanced, Wang Hongjun’s family wasn’t even as good as hers. After they returned, they couldn’t live together.

"Yingzi, Mom is sorry, but this is how things are at home."

She went to the countryside on behalf of her brother. But now nothing belongs to her.

"Mom, you said then that I should go instead of my brother to the countryside and that you’d treat me well. How can it be like this now? Can’t rely on the family anymore."

"Yingzi, I can’t help it now. Your dad isn’t the director anymore. Plus, your sister-in-law is really formidable. I don’t even dare not listen to her."

As they spoke, Pan Xiaoying’s sister-in-law pushed the door open and entered.

"Little sister, you shouldn’t show a bad face at home. A married daughter is like spilled water. Now that you can still come back to stay, I’m already giving you a lot of face."

"Sister-in-law, I went to the countryside instead of my brother."

"Heh. If you didn’t replace him, I might not have been able to marry into the family and might have found someone better." Dreaming of getting benefits from me, you might as well dream faster.

"Both the son and daughter reached age, how can you say you went instead of your brother? You both might have had to go to the countryside."

After these words, Pan Xiaoying felt completely heartbroken.

"Little sister, don’t be dissatisfied. Even though she returned divorced, Yang Xiuqin came back. And she even has a job."

"Sister-in-law, what did you say? Yang Xiuqin got divorced?"

"Yes, returned with a big belly and gave birth to a son and daughter." Pan Xiaoying’s sister-in-law worked in the hospital and knew about Yang Xiuqin’s situation.

Pan Xiaoying stayed silent, thinking she could use this and go find Yang Xiuqin.

But when she went to find her, she wasn’t home. A neighbor said she’d gone to work at the neighborhood office.

Pan Xiaoying couldn’t hide her jealousy. When she found Yang Xiuqin, she looked at her with a cold smile.

"Yang Xiuqin, you’re doing well. Gave me just a bit of money, and now you can return. What are you going to do?"

Yang Xiuqin was surprised to see Pan Xiaoying, "You came back?"

"I came back! After all these years, I barely have the chance to come home and visit. Don’t say useless things. What are you going to do?"

"Do what? I gave you a thousand yuan then. What has that got to do with you now?"

"Xiaoying, you got a thousand yuan?"

Pan Xiaoying felt a pang in her heart, now she was awakened too.

"Gave me a thousand? Where doesn’t require spending money? You think a thousand will settle it? That’s definitely not enough."

Yang Xiuqin worked in the neighborhood office, where women liked to watch drama. Now, both attracted everyone’s attention.

"Heh, Pan Xiaoying, if you want to stay honest, don’t make up stories." Yang Xiuqin saw Pan Xiaoying’s eyes dodge when she mentioned that thousand. She got the gist.

"Yang Xiuqin, don’t be smug. How did you come back? Saying you’re divorced? When did I hear you got married?"

Yang Xiuqin’s face remained unchanged. "We lived far apart, I didn’t have a wedding for my marriage, so it’s normal you didn’t know. Why? Should I have announced my marriage to you? You think too highly of yourself."

"Yang Xiuqin, you?"

"Pan Xiaoying, don’t come biting because you’re unsatisfied. You approached me, wanting to swap places, and asked for a thousand yuan, which I agreed to. I was allowed to return for making contributions, you’re jealous? But you’ve stayed in Li Family Village for years without returning, right?

Just work hard; maybe you’ll accomplish something, instead of envying others."
