The Love of Passerby A

Chapter 533: A Survival Guide for Women in the Old Republic of China (72)

Cao Shixun looked at his father silently, with a lot of thoughts in his mind, and he didn't know how to respond.

Cao Ce sighed slightly and said calmly: "Okay, go back! You have fired your gun and you are angry, so let's stop here!"

He paused, then continued: "In fact, compared to 'returning' to the Cao family, Xiaoran should have a better choice."

Hearing this, Cao Shi suddenly understood that everything he thought in his heart had not escaped his father's eyes, but he had never approved of his own ideas.

Song Chengjing, Su Yanqing and Su Xiangran will depart for the country on a ship in twenty days.

The wedding of Cao Shixun and Xie Wanru was scheduled to be held a month later.

As a result, these three people are destined to be unable to attend each other's weddings.

This time arrangement seemed to be chosen by Cao Ce because he absolutely did not want any accidents or changes to happen at the wedding.

On the day of boarding, Cao Ce and the Su couple came to see them off and watched the three young people embark on a journey to the other side of the ocean to pursue their dreams.

However, Cao Shixun also came to the dock that day, but he kept hiding among the crowd of people who were seeing him off, and ultimately he was unable to say his farewell words.

More than ten days later, Cao Shixun and Xie Wanru held their wedding in a cathedral in Hai City.

This couple who were in love with each other in their previous life started over again, and each of them had someone else in their hearts.

But fate still tied them together, and in front of their relatives and friends, they uttered their marriage vows with a false heart.

Three years passed quickly, Su Xiangran and Song Chengjing boarded the ship back home, but Su Yanqing was kept for another year by his teacher because of his outstanding performance.

This year, Su Xiangran was fifteen years old, Su Yanqing, Cao Shixun, and Song Chengjing were twenty-five years old, and the original heroine: Xie Wanru was twenty years old.

Because Su Xiangran had dreamt about the early death of the Su couple before, not long after she went abroad, with the help of Song Chengjing and Su Yanqing's persuasion, she moved the business center to Haishi.

At first the couple was reluctant to do so, but after a group of "bandits" visited Jincheng, they suddenly realized that the world might really be in chaos.

He followed his children's advice and moved his family business to Hai City. At least with the Cao and Song families here, their safety would always be guaranteed.

Old Master Su was determined not to leave his homeland. After he was forcibly brought to Hai City by his son Su Weichen, he even refused to speak a word to him for a full six months.

"Dad! Look, it's a relief that we came to Haishi." One day, Su Weicheng took a letter from a distant relative of the Su family and said, "Jincheng is the main battlefield this time, and our area was bombed as soon as we got here."

Although Mr. Su was old, he still didn't live enough. After hearing the news from his son, he never asked to go back.

He can even go out and find fun on his own. Basically, he goes to a teahouse every day, plays chess with some elderly people of similar age, listens to books, etc.

All in all, Xie Wanru has been married to Cao Shixun for three years, and the couple has been apart more often than together, and they don't spend much time together.

After getting married, Cao Shixun seemed to have suddenly come to his senses. He first graduated from the military academy with excellent grades, and then began to gain experience in Cao Ce's army.

He does not have the airs of a young marshal, has a good relationship with the soldiers, and has high qualities in all aspects of military service.

This made Cao Ce very pleased. He knew that his son had become "sensible" and it seemed that everything was moving in a good direction.

Of course, sometimes things don’t go as planned, such as...

"Mrs. Cao, your wife isn't pregnant yet!" One day, one of Wu Wenyue's poker friends said to her while they were playing cards at Cao's house, "Do you want to go and pray? I heard that the Guanyin deity in a certain place is very effective in giving birth."

"Really? If we have time, let's go and have a look." Wu Wenyue said with a wry smile, "Let's not talk about this anymore, let's play cards, play cards!"

In fact, Xie Wanru was pregnant in the first year of her marriage, but she was young and didn’t understand these things, so she didn’t take the missed period seriously.

Her mother-in-law, Wu Wenyue, was determined to set rules for her. By the time she discovered the problem, the signs of miscarriage had already appeared. Even after she hired a famous doctor to assisted in the pregnancy, she still couldn't keep the baby.

Fortunately, the famous doctor said that Xie Wanru was still young and if she was well taken care of, she would be able to have children in the future.

However, he also explained the general reasons for the miscarriage, and now Wu Wenyue herself became the one who was embarrassed.

With the famous doctor's words, Xie Wanru lived a good life thereafter, and her mother-in-law Wu Wenyue could no longer control her.

A child in exchange for a comfortable life in the future. I don’t know whether this deal is a loss or a gain.

That day, the Su couple received the news that their daughter and future son-in-law were returning to China, and they were extremely happy.

"Xiao Ran will be fifteen when she comes back!" Su Weicheng calculated his daughter's age, "When she comes back, we will prepare for her wedding. The young master of the Song family is already twenty-five, and the Song family is probably anxious too."

Cao Wanning glanced at her husband and thought to herself: I don't know whether others are anxious or not, but her husband must be very anxious, fearing that trouble will arise and he will lose the support of the Song family.
