Xia Xiao had replied to Gao Jiaxing’s letter, now her writing was even more ticulous, and she noticed that Gao Jiaxing, when writing back again, was no longer as unrestrained and buoyant as the first ti. His words had beco very concise and formulaic.
With a smile, Xia Xiao thought about Gao Jiaxing’s personality. It must have been difficult for him to write such a rigid letter.
After another reply to Gao Jiaxing, Xia Xiao received a letter from ho. Her eldest uncle, Xia Jianguo, had married Zhang Yun.
anwhile, Guan Mingli had miscarried due to a quarrel with Zhao Yan, who had pushed her, leading to the loss of her eight-month-old baby, a son.
As you can imagine, the Zhao family was consud with hatred, but Zhao Yan turned around and imdiately married Liang Wei. When Zhao Daguo wanted to deal with Zhao Yan, he was taught a lesson by Liang Wei’s people.
And now, the Zhao family had been taken over by Zhao Xiang. Although he didn’t kick them out of the house, he had assud command over everything in the Zhao family.
Reading this, Xia Xiao shuddered. These two siblings were too ruthless, treating their own family this way; they would certainly show no rcy to the Xia Family either. When Xia Xiao thought about Zhao Xiang and Zhao Yan approaching Liang Wei and asking for trouble with Xia Chunrong and Gao Jiaxing, she felt a chill in her heart. It seed she would still need to go ho over the New Year; otherwise, she couldn’t be at ease.
Li Shengi was anxious to see that Sun Yuhua was pregnant, but Dong ihua wasn’t yet. However, she knew that since her son wasn’t present, all she could do was write a letter to He Xuexiang, telling him that Gao Jiazhi already had children and to hurry ho for the New Year.
Dong ihua was utterly annoyed by Li Shengi, who talked about children every day, which caused Dong ihua to feel a sense of rejection towards it. She was now hoping that He Xuexiang would co back soon and also hoping to be able to apply to join the military, as she was really not willing to face Li Shengi every day under the sa roof.
Still having received no news from ho, she ca to ask Xia Xiao.
"Xia Xiao, are you going ho this year?" Sun Yuhua asked Xia Xiao.
Xia Xiao nodded, "Yes, I am."
Sun Yuhua said, "Then could you help make a trip to my family? Just to see if they’re all right?"
Sun Yuhua didn’t know whether sothing had happened at ho; it had been so long without any news. Although she had refused marriage and rejected her family’s arrangents, severing ties with them, she still worried about her family.
With the situation being so tense, Sun Yuhua was very worried about her family’s circumstances, but she dared not return for fear of being implicated. Therefore, she hoped that if Xia Xiao was going back to the city, she could help check on her family.
"Oh, sure, give the address," Xia Xiao nodded and agreed to help Sun Yuhua.
At this ti, Wang Aihua’s family finally sent a letter. Wang Aihua heaved a sigh of relief. After this ordeal, Wang Aihua also felt that life was unpredictable, so she too married Fang Yuejin.
Once Wang Aihua married, she moved out of the dormitory and settled into a house with Fang Yuejin.
In the dormitory, only Xia Xiao, Yang Xuehua, and Ning Hui remained. Ning Hui sighed, "One by one, they all moved out. It’s quite dull. It’s more lively when we all live together."
Xia Xiao nodded. When it was bustling, she had longed for quiet; but now that it was quiet, she was unaccustod to it and still felt that liveliness was better.
Now Yang Xuehua didn’t like to talk much, and Xia Xiao didn’t know how to comfort her. She felt very distressed seeing Yang Xuehua beco like this.
Since arriving here, Yang Xuehua had been the kindest to her, always protecting her. She had the best relationship with Yang Xuehua, and they even often slept together in winter. Their affection for each other had always been strong.
Now Yang Xuehua was no longer working with Xia Xiao and the others but did strenuous tasks with those in labor education. So sotis, Yang Xuehua would co back and imdiately fall asleep, obviously exhausted.
Living in the sa dorm, their ti for conversation had lessened, their encounters were fewer, and it felt like there was nothing much to say anymore.
When Yang Xuehua woke up, Xia Xiao had prepared a cup of water for her – she had added spring water to it.
Yang Xuehua gave Xia Xiao a slight smile, "Thank you."
"Sister Xuehua, why be so formal with ? I was bitten by a snake once, and had a narrow escape from death, and it was Sister Xuehua who looked after . I rember all the kindness Sister Xuehua showed . I also want to tell Sister Xuehua that the darkness will eventually pass. Dawn will always co, and the sunshine always follows the rain. So let’s stay strong and give ourselves so confidence."
Xia Xiao tried to give Yang Xuehua courage. She didn’t want to see Yang Xuehua like a flower about to wither, despairing of life.
"Xia Xiao, thank you," Yang Xuehua looked at Xia Xiao with gratitude. "If it weren’t for you, I might not have been able to hold on."
Xia Xiao reached out and hugged Yang Xuehua, "Sister Xuehua, everything will be alright."
On the other side, Gao Jiaxing, after finishing training, was delighted to receive Xia Xiao’s letter.
Liu Yuanchao reminded him, "Be careful with the tone and content of your letters."
Gao Jiaxing’s face darkened. When he first wrote to Xia Xiao, how could he have known that his letter would be read by others? So you can imagine Gao Jiaxing’s statent: At first, my comrades didn’t accept , and they challenged every day, but now each one of them has been convinced by my fists.
