After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies

Chapter 162

Pei Jing looked at her seriously, smiled, and said, "No matter what is going on next door, those are their family affairs and have nothing to do with us."

"I know, I was just saying it in passing," Zhi Xia said.

"Since you still have the mind to think about other things, it looks like you are not tired at all..."

The long night was endless, and with no desire to sleep, they had to find some things to do to pass the time.

It is said that there are no invincible people in this world, but Zhi Xia felt that this man Pei Jing was just like an invincible one.

He never seemed to get tired, always full of energy, and no matter how late he slept, he could still get up the next day as usual.

She could not stand it, and was mocked by him for being both timid and lustful.

Of course, the fact was indeed the case, it was just that the truth was always so unwilling to admit.

Zhi Xia did not ask about Shen Hongxing’s affairs anymore, so she naturally did not know that she was sad because of Shen Hongmei.

Shen Hongmei had left with Fu Yunqi with the intention of living a good life, but she did not expect that she had overestimated Fu Yunqi’s character.

After leaving here, Fu Yunqi still could not change his playboy nature. Although the Fu family was well off, they looked down on her, a daughter-in-law from the countryside. The good life she imagined did not come true. On the contrary, she was limited to trivial family conflicts.

From the beginning Fu Yunqi was still willing to coax her, to later his temper became more and more violent, and even evolved to the point of getting physical.

Of course, she alone could not beat the Fu family.

At that time, there was no specific way to deal with domestic violence. Based on the old saying that it is better to demolish ten temples than to destroy one marriage, most people would advise the woman to endure for the sake of the family.

It was also very tragic to say.

Moreover, domestic violence breeds more domestic violence. Fu Yunqi started out just losing his temper and getting physical. Later, he would get physical at the slightest displeasure. Shen Hongmei was a lone woman in a strange place. Other than enduring, she seemed to have no other way.

When Shen Hongxing received a letter from her younger sister, she really felt heartbroken for her. So late at night she discussed with Yang Jun to see if there was a way to help Shen Hongmei.

When Shen Hongmei insisted on being with Fu Yunqi, Yang Jun had persuaded her overtly and covertly more than once. It was clearly for her own good, but she still ended up being rejected.

Shen Hongmei's unwillingness to take advice had already ruined Yang Jun's good impression of her. Moreover, he felt that this aunt was becoming more and more unknowledgeable.

Their family was living a good life now, and he really didn't want to upset the family again for the sake of others.

Although Shen Hongmei had been very good to the children before, Yang Jun felt that he had always been good to her too. Now they owed nothing to each other, so he refused Shen Hongmei's request for help.

In fact, he did not think he could help at all.

The Propaganda Group had already lost hope in her completely, and she had given up that job herself. Yang Jun could not bring himself to ask the group leader to speak for her again. In other aspects, he could not find a suitable job for her either. What else could he do to help?

Shen Hongxing did not argue with Yang Jun because of this. Although the remarried couple's life was stable, there was still a crack that had existed. They both understood in their hearts that this marriage could no longer withstand any more shocks.

She was purely heartbroken for her younger sister. Not daring to show it during the day, she could only cry secretly at the dead of night.

Yang Jun hugged her in his arms without speaking to comfort her. In this world, everyone has their own helplessness. After venting through crying, they still had to get up early the next morning and be busy for life as usual.

As winter came, the discomfort of Pei Meng's pregnancy finally faded away.

Carefully calculating, they had been married for a year. Zhao Xin took Pei Meng back to Jincheng to visit their elders on both sides of the family.

Before leaving, Pei Jing wanted to take the children to town to take a couple of photos, to show the elders in the family.

Zhi Xia complained that it was too cold outside, so she took photos with her phone. She took several in a row, with the children sleeping, being naughty, and Pei Chenye's small face showed Pei Jing's features when he was not smiling.

After taking the photos, she printed them from her space onto photographic paper, deliberately changing them to black and white pixels first.

Seeing the photos she took, Pei Jing said, "You didn't take good photos. How could photos taken in a photo studio show them in bed? And you can tell at first sight that these two were taken in our home. Zhao Xin and Meng Meng won't fail to recognize them."

"Then should we take the children outside for some outdoor shots?" Zhi Xia thought about it, "It doesn't seem to work either. You guys are too familiar with this area. They certainly can't be tricked."

"Do we have any red or black cloth that can be used as a backdrop?" Pei Jing wondered. Zhi Xia probably hadn't been to a photo studio to take photos before, otherwise she would know that except for going out on location, the backgrounds in photo studios were all solid colors.

There was no such cloth in the house, but Zhi Xia certainly had some.

Later, Pei Jing pulled out a cloth behind them. It was also the first time he saw Zhi Xia take out her phone.

After living together for so long, he could clearly guess that Zhi Xia must not be as simple as just owning a piece of land. But he did not ask her again.

In fact, if it wasn't for Shen Hongmei’s affairs happening right before their eyes, he wouldn't have wanted to get everything clear. He was just worried that if this girl took out some too obvious stuff, it might reveal flaws. After all, Zhi Xia was still very young in Pei Jing's eyes.

After taking the photos, seeing Zhi Xia produce the photos in just a few minutes, he couldn't help but marvel at her space again in his heart.

But it was just curiosity. Of course there was admiration, but Pei Jing was upright by nature. Not to mention his wife, even if it was a stranger's belongings, he would not be able to seize them.

Pei Jing took the photos to Pei Meng. She happened to be home alone, so she asked, "Young uncle, have you and young auntie thought about going back to visit home? It's been more than a year. No matter how good photos are, they can't compare to seeing real people. Grandpa must want to see his grandchildren too."

He probably knew she didn’t like her biological parents, so he didn’t even mention them.

Indeed, Zhi Xia could dislike her own parents, but she could not disregard the elderly couple who cared for her wholeheartedly.

"If you want to go back, I'll go back with you. Otherwise I can't take both kids back myself," she said. She really didn't want to see her biological parents, but she was afraid Pei Jing would think she was ungrateful.

After all, parents who don’t treat their daughters well are not uncommon, especially for girls’ families. But being unfilial on the children’s part means being ungrateful.

After speaking, Zhi Xia was stunned for a moment, and said, "Actually, I want to see my fourth brother more. He...doesn't even know I got married yet."

If the fourth brother knew that she had been hiding it from him, and even had children, he must be very angry at her!

She didn't dare tell him in her letters, just as others were worried, fearing that he would impulsively do unpredictable things in a moment of rashness, which would ultimately harm him instead.

If possible, she really wanted to find him in person to explain things clearly.

He was the person in this world who cared about her the most, and she also put him in her heart equally.

An Zhiang kept his word. Although the allowance for new recruits was minimal, he was afraid Zhi Xia would not have money to spend. He would send money tucked in envelopes to her every few months. Zhi Xia had rejected it a few times to no avail. She could only accept the money for now and save it for him.
