A woman in her 70s marries a rough-looking man; her plump wife is too delicate and alluring.

"Yuze, you're back!"

Sheng Kaiyuan and Li Xuanxue, who had just been discharged from the hospital, arrived at their doorstep.

Sheng Yuze turned his head and saw that it was Sheng Kaiyuan holding a cart with Li Xuanxue on it.

He looked at Li Xuanxue in the car and forced a bitter smile. "Brother, sister-in-law, I'm back."

Sheng Kaiyuan looked at Sheng Yuze's right leg, which was wrapped in bandages, and felt a pang of heartache as he leaned on his crutches.

Li Xuanxue: "How did you get such a serious injury?"

Sheng Yuze waved his hand, "It's alright, sister-in-law, it's nothing serious, I'm almost better."

Sheng Kaiyuan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that things were almost over. "Why aren't you going in?"

Sheng Yuze's face flushed red. "I thought I had taken the wrong turn."

Sheng Kaiyuan couldn't understand why his younger brother didn't recognize his home after going out for a while.

He looked into the courtyard and only understood when he saw He Zhaoyang.

Sheng Kaiyuan laughed. "Let's go home."

He then pushed Li Xuanxue into the courtyard, saying, "Zhaoyang, your sister-in-law and I are back!"

He Zhaoyang said happily, "Why didn't you say you were coming back today? If I had known, Mother and I would have come to pick you up."

Li Xuanxue lightly tapped He Zhaoyang's forehead with her fingertip. "I don't need you anymore. You should get some rest too. Look who's back!"

He Zhaoyang looked behind Li Xuanxue and saw Sheng Yuze standing at the door, not daring to come in.

Before her eyesight was bad, she couldn't see Sheng Yuze's face clearly at all. Now that her eyesight is completely healed, the more she looks at Sheng Yuze's face, the more something seems off.

His fox-like eyes, the mole under his eye, his face shape, and the contours of his eyebrows and eyes were exactly the same as that fox's, except for the scar on his forehead.

Sheng Yuze looked at He Zhaoyang with a complicated expression. He hadn't expected that a person could change so much.

When he left, He Zhaoyang weighed at least 190 pounds, but now he looks like he weighs less than 100 pounds.

He admitted that he was initially taken aback when he entered the room, but when he thought about how He Zhaoyang had killed his grandmother and his sister-in-law's unborn child, he really didn't know how to face her.

I was initially skeptical, but this time my sister-in-law did indeed have a miscarriage.

Sheng Kaiyuan and Li Xuanxue couldn't help but laugh when they saw them looking at each other, then quickly went back to their own room so as not to disturb them.

"You're back."

He Zhaoyang spoke first.

Sheng Yuze nodded, not looking at her much, and walked towards the main room with his cane.

He didn't stop as he passed by her.

He Zhaoyang frowned, looking at his limping back, and felt that something was wrong.

This person wasn't like this before. Even when he was injured, he would talk to her a little more, asking if she had eaten or if her family was doing well.

I didn't ask a single question today.

Sheng Yuze entered the main room, sat on the bed, and leaned his cane aside.

He Zhaoyang followed him in and stood at the door: "How did you get your leg injured?"

"I rolled around in the mountains." Sheng Yuze looked down as he removed the bandages, without looking up.

Not a single word.

He Zhaoyang stood at the door for two seconds, then didn't say anything more.

The room was so quiet that the only sound was the rough fabric rubbing as the bandages were unwrapped.

"Then you can rest." He Zhaoyang turned and left.

The door closed gently behind her.

Sheng Yuze then looked up at the closed door. He clutched the bandage in his hand, his knuckles turning white.

He didn't want it to be like that, but he couldn't control himself.

He admitted that He Zhaoyang had changed a lot since his previous life, but he didn't dare to gamble. He was afraid that He Zhaoyang had also been reborn, since he himself could also be reborn.

When it was time to cook lunch, Qin Meng came back and saw He Zhaoyang busy in the kitchen. She smiled and rolled up her sleeves to help.

Sheng Kaiyuan settled Li Xuanxue in and then came over to help. The whole family was having a lively time in the kitchen.

Sheng Yuze did not come out.

Qin Meng glanced towards the house. "Where's Yuze? His leg injury is so bad, he needs something hot for lunch. Zhaoyang, take him a bowl."

He Zhaoyang served himself a bowl of vegetables and a piece of flatbread, then took it to the door of the main room and opened it, saying, "Dinner's ready."

Sheng Yuze was leaning against the headboard with his eyes closed. Hearing the noise, he opened his eyes, glanced at her, and said, "Thank you, just leave it."

He Zhaoyang closed the door and left. She didn't want to be met with indifference; wasn't that just asking for trouble?

Sheng Yuze waited until she left before slowly sitting up and picking up the bowl.

The glass noodles were stewed until soft and tender, and the sliced ​​meat was a perfect mix of lean and fatty meat; it smelled delicious.

He took a bite, looked down at the food in his bowl, and suddenly remembered the woman in his dream. Not only did she not cook, but she also complained that the food was either burnt or too salty.

Her mother-in-law said a few words to her and she smashed the bowl.

He put down his chopsticks, unable to eat anymore, and went outside.

Just then, Grandma Sheng came out of the inner room, looking so energetic that Sheng Yuze was taken aback.

Li Yuzhen walked steadily with her crutches, smiled at him, and asked, "Yuze's back? How did you hurt your leg?"

Sheng Yuze helped the old lady sit down. "Grandma, can you walk now?"

"Thanks to Zhaoyang." Li Yuzhen patted his hand. "She massages me every day and soaks my feet in spring water. She's really brought my old bones back to life. Zhaoyang is such a thoughtful girl."

He Zhaoyang, who was washing dishes, smiled sweetly and said, "Grandma, you're always praising me. I'm getting embarrassed."

Qin Meng chimed in, "In the two weeks you were away, Zhaoyang took care of your grandmother and your sister-in-law all by herself, cooking and doing laundry without uttering a single complaint. If you can get around, please help her out."

Sheng Yuze looked thoughtfully at He Zhaoyang, who was washing dishes. She did seem different from the one in her previous life; she was actually willing to wash dishes and do housework in a good mood.

He decided to observe for a few more days to see if He Zhaoyang was faking it.

That evening, Sheng Yuze followed He Zhaoyang back to the house first.

He Zhaoyang lit the lamp without glancing at him.

He went straight to the bed, smoothed out the mattress, placed the pillows, and unfolded the quilt to lay it flat on the bed.

Sheng Yuze leaned against the door frame, using his cane, his gaze fixed on He Zhaoyang.

He Zhaoyang bent over, her slender body fully exposed, revealing her complete profile and straight nose. Stray hairs fell naturally over her face, swaying gently with her movements, leaving much to the imagination.

Sheng Yuze's Adam's apple bobbed, and an unnatural flush rose to his face.

He still remembered the first time they shared a bed in his past life.

He Zhaoyang made the bed, turned around and pressed him down. At that time, he weighed over 190 pounds and couldn't break free.

She ripped at his clothes haphazardly and forced herself on him.

He Zhaoyang was more like a man than I was.

But now, looking at He Zhaoyang in front of him, a glimmer of expectation slowly rose within him.

He Zhaoyang straightened up, patted the blanket twice, and then turned around.

She glanced at him.

Then he bent down and pulled out a straw mat from under the bed, opened the cabinet, grabbed an old mattress and a thin quilt, and bent down to spread them out next to the kang (heated brick bed).

Sheng Yuze froze, gripping his cane tightly. "You?"

He Zhaoyang glanced at him without any emotion. "I'll sleep on the floor tonight. Your leg injury hasn't healed yet, and it wouldn't be good if Mom and the others found out we were sleeping in separate beds."
