Chapter 879: Just a dream
Pei Qinghan kicked her away and angrily said: “It’s too late, it’s too late!” He almost roared when he said: “I and her have already divorced. She is not the Madam of Changyuan Houfu anymore. Now, are you satisfied? Are you? Isn’t this exactly what you expected?”
Song Hexiang stared blankly at Pei Qinghan, who seemed to be mad, only the words ‘he and Dongfang Wan were now divorced’ echoed in her ears.
This news was what she had always wanted to hear before. But now that she heard of it, she felt a thorn embedding in her heart. Because she knew that she will never get another chance again.
Pei Qinghan left and took away the last touch of warmth around her, took away all her hopes.
This man was her everything. All her feelings were devoted to him, without him. She doesn’t know how to continue to live.
When the door of the firewood room closed, Song Hexiang slowly unfastened the belt around her waist and looked up at the beam on top of her head that was as thick as her waist.

In the laundry room
Bai Zhenzhu looked at her swelling hands. There were wounds on her joints, which were painful and itchy. She didn’t even have time to scratch it. From time to time, someone will urge her to work. Once her movements slowed down, she will be smashed with a stick.
In this small laundry room, in just 10 days, she suffered the hardship she had never experience in her life and suffered the abuse she had never suffered before.
At this moment, she couldn’t help but thought of the goodness of her life in Huangtuo Village, and also the goodness of her parents. In Huangtuo Village, during winter in the northwest, her mother never let her touch cold water, saying that it’s not good for girls because they will have a hard time getting pregnant.
At that time, she thought it was only natural, she didn’t feel any joy about it.
At the same time, Bai Zhi and Zhao Lan had to go to the riverside to wash their clothes no matter how cold the surroundings were. No matter how cold they were, the mother and daughter did the work at home. At that time, she couldn’t understand why Zhao Lan wants to stay and be cattle and horse for the Bai Family.
Only until this moment, she understood that all the glory and wealth were nothing but a splitting moment. No matter how painful and tiring it was, only when you live with your family was worth it.
In this life, will she still have a chance to see her parents again?
“Hey, Bai Zhenzhu, what are you doing? Come over here and dry these clothes soon.” The Laundry Housekeeper called her once again.
Bai Zhenzhu lifted her foot and walked towards the housekeeper. She didn’t see the soap powder box underneath her feet, so she stepped on it and slipped. She crawled up in a daze and went in the wrong direction. She walked towards the reservoir and fell on the side. The edge of the reservoir was made of stone. When her head hit on it, blood immediately flowed. Blood slid from her forehead to her cheek.
Bai Zhenzhu fainted, but nobody knew about it.
She had a dream. When she opened her eyes, she went back to Huangtuo Village. She returned to the past where she was with her parents.
Her father and mother treated her well just like before, leaving her all the delicious food and nice clothes. Bai Zhi and Zhao Lan were doing all the work at home. They don’t have to worry about food and clothes, and they have a worry-free life.
She hopes that all this was true and has never changed.
She hoped that all the things she experienced in the capital were just a dream. A dream that will disappear as long as she woke up.
However, when she opened her eyes, the gloomy room, the sour and moldy quilt, and Mrs. Liu’s annoying face appeared in front of her. It was a dream, just a dream!
