The weather was very good, but the weather was very good.

It was the beginning of spring in February, and the rain was continuous. It had been raining for a whole month in Xiangtan Village, and the dirt yard in front of the Du family had turned into a pool of mud.

Du Wanchun walked into the house with her skirt covered with mud, put down the basket in her hand, and patted the mud stains on her skirt.

A woman with a big belly suddenly walked over quickly, pointed at her and cursed, "Why did you come back now, you stinky girl? Hurry up and pack your things to get married!"

Her name was Liu, and she was her father's new second wife five years ago.

The widow from the neighboring Guihua Village brought a daughter of the same age with her when she married. Although she was a stepmother, she had been rolling around in the fields with her father before her mother died.

Everyone in the village knew about this, and her mother died of illness when it was finally spread.

Du Wanchun just came of age this year. She was born a fool. She has been despised by her father for so many years. Fortunately, her mother has always raised her carefully.

After Liu came into the family, she treated this stupid stepdaughter as a slave. She didn't give her clothes in winter and food in summer. She was obviously a girl in her teens, but she was tortured to the point of being skinny.

Her father Du Dajiang was an old farmer with no skills. He was controlled by Liu. He didn't dare to say a word when he saw his stupid daughter being bullied.

A few days ago, Li, the county magistrate of Cheng'an County, sent someone to propose marriage for his son, saying that he wanted to marry this stupid girl.

This frightened Liu so much that she couldn't sleep all night. Although the official position of County Magistrate Li's family was not high, they were considered local tyrants in the whole Cheng'an County. Marrying him would make her a phoenix.

Liu was so jealous that she discussed with Du Dajiang and let her biological daughter Liu Lanzhi marry him instead of her silly sister.

As the saying goes, if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather. It was true. Du Dajiang agreed without thinking.

In order to avoid more trouble, Liu specially found another marriage for Du Wanchun.

The eldest son of Zhou's family in Changliu Village next door.

The Zhou family was a well-known poor family in Changliu Village. A widow brought three sons. The eldest son was disabled, the second son was blind, and the third son was deaf. No one in the family was complete. Thanks to Aunt Zhou who supported the whole family alone, but because the family had no men to rely on, they were often bullied by neighbors. Either their fields were occupied or their land was occupied. Now they were afraid that they were almost out of money.

Liu is now marrying Du Wanchun, which is clearly intended to push her into the fire pit.

Du Dajiang sat aside, took a puff of dry tobacco, and said: "Wanchun, don't blame your father, you are stupid, marrying to the county magistrate's family will only be a waste, it is better to marry to the Zhou family, it will be good for you and your sister."

After he said that, he did not forget to look at Liu's belly. The Du family only had two daughters, Du Wanchun and Liu Lanzhi. Du Dajiang dreamed of having a son. This Liu was really pregnant with a pearl. Now it is seven or eight months old. Several doctors have seen it and they all said it is a boy.

He knew in his heart that the Zhou family was a fire pit, but for the boy in Liu, he was willing to ruin the happiness of his own daughter.

Even if it cost his daughter's life.

Du Wanchun stood up and looked coldly at Du Dajiang and Liu. After a while, she smiled and said, "Okay, Dad, I'll marry you."

Liu calmed down her anger, put her hands on her waist, and snorted, "That's better. Go, change your clothes and follow the matchmaker to Zhou's house!"

"Yes, mother." Du Wanchun replied obediently and turned to go into the house.

It was a small dark firewood room. There were not many rooms in the house. After Liu brought her daughter in, she was driven here.

It rained for a month in a row, and the bed was covered with mold. As soon as she entered the house, she smelled moldy.

Du Wanchun looked around, and then took out a bag of red wedding clothes from a cabinet. It was made by her mother before she died, saying that it was left for her to wear when she got married.

Today she finally used it.

She took out the wedding clothes inside and changed them one by one.

Du Dajiang and Liu outside the house thought she was stupid. In fact, they didn't know that she accidentally fell on the field dam just now, and her mind suddenly became clear after waking up.

She is not stupid anymore.

The eldest son of the Zhou family is called Zhou Ruiyuan. She has seen him and she is willing to marry him.

When Aunt Zhou took her three sons to Changliu Village, she passed by the gate of their village.

She remembered that Aunt Zhou was very beautiful, and her bright yellow skirt was the same as that of the noble lady in Beijing.

People in the village often said that Aunt Zhou was a child bride sold to Beijing by the Chen family when she was young. She gave birth to three sons for a horseman. Later, the horseman died, and she returned to Changliu with her three sons.

Village.

But Du Wanchun knew that Aunt Zhou was definitely not an ordinary peasant woman.

Aunt Zhou was literate and sensible, and the son she raised would definitely not be bad. Instead of marrying the fat son of County Magistrate Li, it would be better for her to marry Zhou Ruiyuan.

After she put on her wedding dress, she carried her only belongings and walked out of the door that had trapped her for more than ten years, leaving this home without looking back.
