Chapter 116 Reborn Scheming Woman from a New Era × Husband in an Arranged MarriageEducated YouthComr

Du Xiang was single-mindedly waiting to get married. The night before, she lay in bed watching her older sister sitting on the kang (a heated brick bed) sewing. She listened to her sister's ramblings, but didn't hear a word she said.

There's only one idiot in this family: her eldest sister, Du Dani.

Du Lan, the second sister, was sharp-tongued and sarcastic. Even though she married a fool, Du Xiang knew that her second sister still had some ambition and would eventually succeed.

Although she left with Yu Minglang in her previous life and never came back, I don't know what happened to my second sister in the end.

Only her eldest sister died before she passed away, less than a year ago.

Du Dani took Du Xiang's shoes and mended them for a while, sewing a small pocket inside and painstakingly stuffing in the few small bills she had secretly saved.

She had nothing to give Du Xiang. When her sister got married, she had to beg her husband to let her come home for one night, and she was beaten up again.

Du Lan is pregnant. Her husband's family only has one mentally challenged son, and they keep a close eye on their daughter-in-law, Du Lan, for fear of offending her and being barred from coming home.

Du Xiang and Du Lan, both cunning and shrewd, knew that only the eldest sister in the family was easy to fool. From a young age, they knew how to coax Du Dani by calling her "elder sister" this and "elder sister" that, and left all the heavy work to her.

Especially Du Xiang, as the third daughter, was not favored by her parents and was basically raised by Du Dani. Du Dani's feelings for this younger sister were extraordinary.

Seeing her eldest sister finish her work and lie down next to her, Du Xiang opened her eyes and met her sister's worried expression. She took a closer look and saw that the injury on her forehead had not yet healed; it had been hidden by her hair before.

Du Xiang reached out and gently touched her forehead.

Du Dani dodged the attack, then grabbed Du Xiang's hand and tearfully confessed:

"You need to be careful when you marry into that family, and don't make any mistakes. They're not easy to get along with, but the twins are very popular. Try your best to make them like you. Children are usually easier to get along with."

She was at a loss, and her own life was a mess. Even if she was worried about Du Xiang, there was nothing she could do. All she could do was ask around and get these few words of information.

Du Xiang didn't want to hear a word and closed her eyes.

Seeing her like this, Du Dani assumed she was also in a bad mood and lowered her eyes, silently shedding tears.

Du Xiang didn't open her eyes, but spoke softly:

"Big sister, have you been taking any medication lately?"

Du Dani controlled her emotions, "Well, some folk remedies, I don't know if they'll work."

She's been married for several years but hasn't had a child, and she's taken a lot of medicine.

Du Xiang seemed sleepy, and her voice was not very clear, "Why do you want to have children? To take care of you in your old age? Judging from your current state, you probably won't live to see your children grow up and take care of you in your old age."

It's bad enough that they toil all year round, but they're also often beaten. Now they listen to gossip and eat all sorts of weird things. No wonder they died young in their past life.

Rough words are not rough.

Du Dani said helplessly, "You're still young, you don't understand. You'll eventually have a child."

Du Xiang suddenly opened her eyes and looked at her, "Even if you were pregnant, it would just mean another person getting beaten up with you."

Her eldest sister was so disciplined that she lost her mind, devoted herself to everyone, and only knew how to suffer herself. Du Xiang often secretly complained in her heart that she was a good-for-nothing.

Du Dani opened her mouth, unsure how to refute.

All she ever says is, "You're too young to understand," like a brainless puppet.

Du Xiang snuggled closer to her, then hugged her arm and comfortably closed her eyes to sleep.

He seemed to be talking in his sleep for a while, but every word was clearly audible.

"Sister, taking random medicine can kill you. The old man you married is getting on in years, who knows if he has health problems?"

Du Dani did not respond, so Du Xiang continued:

"People get sick as they get older. Many people get sick and even paralyzed from eating bad food. If he were paralyzed, wouldn't he be too weak to hit you?"

This time, Du Dani finally spoke up to stop her, "Who taught you to talk such nonsense? Don't talk nonsense."

Du Xiang was always obedient and sweet-talking. She knew her child's character well, having raised her herself. She was sure that since Du Xiang got married and wasn't taken care of at home, she had been led astray. Du Dani felt sorry for her.

Du Xiang seemed not to hear, "You cook and do chores every day, and it shouldn't be difficult to gradually add some medicine to his diet. He'll probably become paralyzed one day, but we have to be careful not to let him die. It would be best if he became paralyzed but didn't die. If he dies, his parents can use you to get money for his remarriage."

Du Dani's face grew increasingly grim as she listened. "It's fine to say these things to me, but don't go around telling other people, understand?"

She was no longer in the mood to cry; how had Du Xiang become like this?

Du Xiang ignored her words and smiled ingratiatingly, "Sister, taking medicine randomly can kill people. I'm afraid you'll die. It's better for someone else to die than for you to die."

Du Dani patted her head, knowing that she was doing it for her own good, and felt comforted, but she was still afraid that Du Xiang would go astray.

"I know, I won't eat it anymore."

Just eat it secretly without her knowing.

Du Xiang, hearing her words, said coquettishly with satisfaction, "Sister, it's enough that you have me as your child. Don't have any other children, or I'll be sad."

Du Xiang knew that Du Dani was mentally unstable and wouldn't listen, but moral blackmail would definitely work. Her older sister had always been the one who had to steal food from her since she was a baby, feeding her only thin rice porridge and keeping her from starving to death. She had raised her from a tiny infant and loved her the most.

Du Dani gave up her idea of ​​secretly eating it.

Du Xiang brought up the old topic again, "Sister, no one in this family cares about you, and no one cares about me. You are my only family."

As she spoke, she squeezed out two tears, which made Du Dani feel distressed.

Du Xiang continued the kidnapping, "So you try to cripple that old man, okay? Life might be tough for a few years, but at least no one will beat you up anymore. Just hang in there. I won't stay here anymore. I'll come back for you when I've made something of myself."

She herself was uncertain about her future, but if she didn't interfere, her foolish sister's future was doomed.

He painted a rosy picture, hoping to keep his older sister from doing anything foolish or reckless, giving her something to look forward to. He assured her that if he succeeded, he wouldn't treat her unfairly, but if he failed, at least his sister would suffer less before she died.

Du Dani thought she was talking in her sleep again, but this time she didn't stop her. After a while, she sighed.

"I'm already grateful that you have this thought in your heart. Don't overthink things in the future, just live your life well."

Du Xiang snorted coldly, "Will you agree or not?"

Du Dani was at a loss, not knowing how to persuade her that this was wrong.

Du Xiang knew she wouldn't listen, so she turned over to sleep. "It's good that you don't agree. I won't call you 'sister' anymore. Whether you live or die is none of my business."

After saying that, he went to sleep, ignoring all attempts by Du Dani to coax him.

Du Xiang didn't care whether she was asleep or not; she slept comfortably herself and let her fight it out. One day she would be tempted and then take action.

If they don't take action, then it's just that good advice is useless against a damned devil.

But Du Xiang was confident; her words carried a lot of weight with her eldest sister.

The next day, they had to get up very early. Du Dani helped with the work and greeted people. Du Xiang made some preparations and was picked up by the wedding procession on a bicycle.

He didn't even acknowledge his silly older sister before leaving.
