Chapter 3 Relief
"Don't cry. Crying too much is bad for your health. I was wrong in the past..."

Su Yunjin was stunned and stared at Chen Jie blankly. She never dreamed that Chen Jiusi would say these to her.

Suddenly, she stopped crying.

It was too shocking.

This beast would also say that he did something wrong?
In Su Yunjin's eyes, the original body was a bastard, an alcoholic, a gambler, and a domestic violence abuser. Outside of her, she was still a coward, vain, and a bully at home.

When he couldn't even afford to eat at home, he was praised by someone and lent the only bag of food in his house to the lazy man next door, Ma Liu.

He was also very cowardly. Once he had an argument with his neighbor Lu Qin, who came to his house and scolded and beat him. He was in the house at the time and did not even dare to go out to speak a word for him.

When I was slapped twice by that shrew, he actually blamed me for causing trouble for him.

His own wife was chased home and slapped twice, but as a man, he didn't dare to say a word. Can you rely on a man like this?
But if I don't rely on him, who else can I rely on? There is no such thing as divorce in this world, not even divorce by amicable consent. For a village woman like me, the only outcome is a letter of divorce.

But her natal family was gone, where would she go after being divorced? Would she follow others and become a prostitute?
What's more, I have a younger sister. I have no choice, really no choice!

She could only blame herself for her bad fate, marrying a beast in human form, a bastard who was timid in public but domineering at home.

Chen Jie looked at the confusion on Su Yunjin's face, slowly squatted down, and looked at Su Yunjin seriously. Only then did he realize that this woman was so beautiful, especially after crying, her face was full of tears, which made people feel pity for her.

When Chen Jie saw the woman’s reaction, he knew that his words had worked.

His predecessor did so many things that were worse than beasts, so I want to say sorry on his behalf.

At least it can give this poor woman in front of me some comfort.

Seeing the woman's expression obviously relaxing, Chen decided to say a few more words to calm her down.

When he reached out his hand, the woman subconsciously dodged, but Chen Jie still held her face in his hands and wiped away her tears with his thumb. The woman was very surprised and even trembled a little.

"Yun Jin."

Chen Jie spoke and originally wanted to call Jin'er, but then he thought it would be better to proceed step by step and not scare the other person. The other person was emotionally unstable right now and he must not provoke the other person again.

Su Yunjin looked at Chen Jie in surprise, because Chen Jie usually called her: "Su", and even went further by calling her a bitch.

But he never called her name. She looked at Chen Jie, not knowing what he was going to do next.

Chen Jie looked at her and said, "I know I have let you down for what happened in the past."

"You've suffered a lot following me, and I didn't expect you to be pushed to this extent. This is all my fault."

Su Yunjin trembled all over when she heard this, her eyes full of disbelief. She thought she had heard it wrong just now, but now he was apologizing to her again. Does he really want to learn well?

Su Yunjin hesitated for a moment, but soon shook his head. A dog will always eat shit. I don’t know what bad things he is planning. Is he afraid that Yunrui and I will commit suicide? Can’t he sell them for money?
Chen Jie saw the vigilance and worry in her eyes.

At this time, he held her hand. It should have been a soft and boneless little hand, but it felt rough and even slightly cracked.

This is caused by long hours of farm work and washing clothes.

And such a pair of hands should not appear on such a beautiful woman.

Su Yunjin was a little panicked when her hand was held, and wanted to pull it back, but Chen Jie said, "Don't move, listen to me, I really know I was wrong, and I didn't mean to deceive you."

"I also know that no matter how much I say now, you won't believe it, but I still hope you can give me a chance. I really have changed."

Chen Jie knew that words were pale, but some attitudes had to be expressed. Su Yunjin was stunned for a long time, and his voice gradually turned cold: "Are you really not going to sell Ruirui?"

Chen Jie said: "I will never sell it!"

Su Yunjin was silent after hearing this, and then said, "Chen Jiusi, my mother has been kind to me, so no matter how you treat me, I can accept it. But Ruirui is still young, she must not lose hope, do you understand?"

"Ah."

Chen Jie nodded.

Su Yunjin continued, "If you can't do what you say and still want to sell Ruirui, then we can die even without poison, and I guarantee that you won't get a penny."

Chen Jie said: "Well, I understand, trust me."

After hearing this, Su Yunjin slowly got up from the ground, and began to pick up the things on the ground. The little kid next to him also started to help clean up. Seeing this, Chen Jie immediately took out the pot of poisoned rice porridge and found a place to bury it.

After doing all this, Chen Jie returned to the house. The two girls ignored him. Chen Jie also knew that in the eyes of the two girls, he was probably like a devil.

Gululu...

Just when things were awkward, little Su Yunrui's stomach started to growl.

Su Yunrui looked at his stomach, then tightened the rag around his waist and muttered, "Ruirui is the best. Ruirui is not hungry."

Gululu...

At this time, there was another rumbling sound from her stomach, and Su Yunjin's face suddenly turned red. It was her stomach, but she didn't say anything.

Chen Jie knew that the rice jar at home was empty. If he didn't find food, his family would probably starve to death. Thinking of this, Chen Jie suddenly remembered that his own intelligence seemed to say that a rabbit hit a tree in the back mountain and died.

It seems I have to go up the mountain.

Thinking about this, Chen Jie stood up and said to Su Yunjin, "You guys stay at home. I'm going to go out for a while and will be back soon."

No one paid any attention to him, and Chen Jie didn't care either. He turned around and left the shabby hut.

Watching Chen Jie walk out the door, Su Yunjin squatted down and looked at Su Yunrui and said, "Ruirui, are you hungry?"

"No, Ruirui is not hungry."

Gululu...

As the little boy was talking, his stomach began to growl.

But the little kid raised his head as if to say, I'm not hungry.

Su Yunjin smiled and patted the little kid's head, then sighed and said, "Let's go dig wild vegetables with sister later. How about we have wild vegetable soup at noon?"

"Yeah, okay~"

When he heard the word "eat", his eyes lit up immediately. It would be good to have something to eat. But it was a pity that the pot of white porridge looked so delicious, but he didn't get to eat it.

Su Yunjin touched the little kid's head again, then got up, went back to the house, found a bamboo basket, took a shovel, thought for a moment, and took the scissors from the sewing box.

He led the little kid out of the door. Although Chen Jiusi said that he had learned well, who knew if he was just fooling himself, letting himself down and then selling Ruirui?
So now she has to take Ruirui with her when she goes out, and bring a pair of scissors. If Chen Jiusi deceives her, even if she can't kill him, can't she kill herself?
