Chapter 2

Hui Yi leaned against the side of the ship, letting the complicated European-style long dress blow away by the fresh sea breeze; however, her eyebrows were tightly frowned, and her originally beautiful water chestnut red lips were tightly pursed into a straight line at this moment.

"Yimei, it's windy here, go back to the cabin." Her fourth brother Hui Weimin came over and said to her.

But she stubbornly leaned against the railing, as if she didn't hear it.

Hui Weimin sighed and said, "I really don't understand you. What's wrong with Yue Hong? Although he didn't study abroad, he was also a talented student of Fudan University. He wrote good articles and was the founder of a new style of poetry. ;He comes from a wealthy family and is handsome... There are many female students pursuing a person like him... But he still has a marriage contract with you, Yimei, what dissatisfaction do you have with such a good man?"

Hui Yimei glanced at fourth brother.

In her previous life, she married into the Lin family with such hopes, but what happened later?

Hui Yimei remembered it very clearly.

In her previous life, when she was 16 years old, she married Lin Yuehong, who was 22 years old; but the fact is that before Lin Yuehong married her, she had already lived with Bai Yingying, and during her marriage with Lin Yuehong, Bai Yingying's first child was born... …

Yan Shi, the grandmother at the helm of the Lin family, probably wanted to cover up the scandal of having a child out of wedlock, so she forced Hui Yimei to marry her even before her wedding gown was embroidered.

At that time, Lin Yuehong's thoughts were all about Bai Yingying and his soon-to-be-born first child, and he refused to show up even when they were married... The one who paid homage to Hui Yimei and led her into the bridal chamber was Lin Yuehong's youngest brother. 11-year-old Lin Yuean.

Thinking of her aggrieved past life, Hui Yimei felt a little annoyed and irritable; but now, she couldn't tell fourth brother that she had already experienced her past life...

After holding back for a long time, Hui Yimei said sullenly, "...This is an arranged marriage!"

Hui Weimin said, "I know this is a new era, and everything needs to be reformed... But don't forget, reform... that's an outside matter, but we have to listen to mother's affairs in our family. You see Look, from eldest brother to me, our marriage is decided by mother, so you are no exception..."

Hui Yimei gets annoyed when she hears this!
Huishi was full of nobles, and his great-grandfather had worshiped the prime minister of the old dynasty; but after the overthrow of the old dynasty, Huishi fell into poverty and could only return to his hometown to live in seclusion.Then, one generation is not as good as the next generation... In the generation of Hui Yimei's father, his father was in poor health, and left his widowed mother Lianshi and five children, four boys and one girl, and passed away early.

Since then, the Hui family has fallen into extreme poverty.

Fortunately, the Lin family, a wealthy businessman in the same county, extended a helping hand to Hui's family.

The two families set up a marriage for Lin Yuehong and Hui Yimei, and immediately afterwards, the Lin family sent generous gifts to Hui's family during the festivals. It was called a gift for the young grandmother who had not yet been married, but in reality, they took care of Hui's family. A family full of orphans and widows.

With the support of the Lin family, Hui Yimei's four elder brothers all finished college. Except for the elder brother who had to stay at home to take care of his mother, her other three elder brothers all stayed abroad; now, the second elder brother Hui is a member of the Judiciary of the new government. The vice president, the third brother Hui, also became a professor at Peking University, and the fourth brother Hui was a senior consul in a German foreign firm in Greater Shanghai.

Later, with the support of her brothers, Hui Yimei was able to study in England.

But Hui Yi's eyebrows stayed abroad, but they kept it from the Lin family; outside, the Hui family only said that Miss Hui Wu was weak and needed to stay in bed to recuperate...

But at the beginning of this year, the old grandmother of the Lin family sent a message that the young master of the Lin family, Lin Yuehong, was 26, and Hui Yimei also turned [-], no matter what, it was time to give them a happy event!

Therefore, Hui's mother immediately sent a telegram to Hui Yimei, asking her to return to China and get married immediately.

Hui Yimei naturally ignored it.

Reason told her that if she wanted to completely get rid of the fate of her previous life, it was correct not to return to China, and not to marry Lin Yuehong; but the escape from marriage would directly affect her studies...she was only a year away from graduating!
So, she begged her mother to fight for one more year for her, and when she finished her studies, she would naturally return to China and marry Lin Yuehong.

But what she waited for was her fourth brother who was ordered by her mother to "escort" her back to China to get married.

Thinking of this, Hui Yimei became more and more bored; she simply turned around and left the ship's side, and returned to the room.

Hui Yimei lay on the bed hugging the quilt, and couldn't help but think of her past and present lives.

In her previous life, she was buried in the flames of the Lin family...

But she didn't expect that when she closed her eyes and opened them again, she would return to her youthful 11 ​​years old.

At that time, it took Hui Yimei a long time to let herself accept the fact of rebirth.

And when she realized this, the first thing she did was to let go of her deformed feet!Such deformed and ugly little feet are not beautiful at all, and they cannot run as hard as normal people...

If it wasn't because her feet were bound, if it wasn't because she had already injured her feet in the fire in the previous life, how could she allow that fire to devour herself?
But her actions made Hui's mother extremely angry!
But Hui Yimei fought back unrelentingly.

—Let her feet be bound, she would rather die!
Hui Yimei is also the flesh that fell from Hui's mother, how can she not feel sorry for her daughter?It's just that Hui's whole family has received the favor of the Lin family. Although the daughter is still young, she is already half of the Lin family; how to raise her is naturally according to the Lin family's wishes.

Therefore, when Mrs. Lin said that the future eldest and youngest mistress of the Lin family should be a well-educated, gentle and pleasant lady, Mother Hui sent an old lady sent by Mrs. Lin to give her eight-year-old daughter Tired feet.

Watching her young daughter cry day and night because of the pain, but what else can Hui's mother do besides crying with her daughter?
Hui Yimei, who had let her feet go, was trying to find a way to make her feet normal.

——She began to wash her feet and give her massage every day. In addition, she insisted on exercising every day... Gradually, her foot bones gradually became normal. Although she still felt pain after walking for a long time, But her walking posture has been completely corrected, and from the outside, her feet are not obviously different except that they are much more delicate than normal people's feet.

On the other hand, Hui Yimei has been paying attention and looking for ways to go out of her hometown, and even go abroad.

Hard work pays off.

Hui Yimei in her previous life had a good impression of the handsome and talented Lin Yuehong; even though he hurt her so much, she always fantasized that one day he would leave Bai Yingying and live a happy life with her ...

But Hui Yimei also knows that she is the "old woman" that he hates so much. Although she is literate, she only reads the Four Books of Women and the like, and can't even understand his new style poems; Hui Yimei did not admit defeat, she secretly hid a copy of Lin Yuehong's Bible.

This Bible is probably also Lin Yuehong's English enlightenment textbook. There are many explanations in Chinese on it, and the pronunciation of words is marked with homophonic Chinese characters...

During the ten years trapped in Lin's house, Hui Yimei kept this Bible as her companion.

During the long and boring years, she has been pondering over this Bible, and thinking about it by herself, and she has read the whole Bible by heart...

Therefore, Hui Yimei, who was reborn and returned, finally found a chance.

Her nephew, the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Hui family, had a newborn who was suffering from whooping cough, and Hui's mother sought medical treatment everywhere, but there was no improvement at all. Seeing that the child's life was half dead, Hui's mother heard that, The foreign pastor in the town church might have a solution.

Hui's mother immediately asked someone to invite Pastor Yang over.

Hui Yimei knew that her chance had come!

She stood in the courtyard, reciting a passage from the Gospel of Matthew in a low voice... and her actions did attract the blond old pastor's attention.

After treating his nephew, the old pastor walked up to Hui Yimei and pointed out a few pronunciations that she had mispronounced in weird Chinese.

But Hui Yimei said slowly to the old pastor in a trembling voice, "Please...please help me, I want to leave here, I want to go to the outside world, I want to study... "

Her knowledge of English comes entirely from the Bible in her previous life, so she doesn't know whether her pronunciation is accurate or not, and she doesn't know whether her grammar is correct.

So Hui Yimei was very nervous, she didn't know if the old pastor understood what she meant.

The old pastor looked at her for a long time, and asked softly, "Are you trapped here?"

Hui Yimei could understand what he said, but she didn't know how to answer.

She had no choice but to nod first, then shook her head again...

The old pastor made the sign of the cross and said in Chinese, "Your child, I will come back to check on his condition in three days... If the condition is good, it will be almost enough to take another medicine; Sent to the hospital of the Red Cross, the effect of injection treatment is better than taking medicine..."

Hui Yi nodded heavily.

She understood that this was a hint given to her by the old pastor.

If she wants to get help from the old pastor, she has to find a way to let him know her situation in detail...

For the next three days and three nights, she shut herself in the room, silently thinking about how to introduce herself, how to make her thoughts clear for the old pastor to understand.

On the fourth day, when the old pastor came to give her nephew a follow-up visit, Hui Yimei stood in the courtyard, stumbling out what she was thinking like reciting a book.

When the old pastor was leaving, he didn't say anything, just looked at her with a smile on his face, and didn't even stop.

But a few days later, the second brother Hui, who was far away in Beiping, sent a telegram to the eldest brother Hui, and the eldest brother Hui talked with Hui's mother all night; the next day, the eldest brother Hui quietly sent Hui Yimei to the county town I went to the free church primary school, and it was said that Hui Yimei was sick...

In the following time, Hui Yi eagerly studied various subjects.

She was originally a wise and independent woman.

It took only two years for her to learn all the knowledge in the church primary school, and then, on the recommendation of the old pastor, she changed her name and entered the county church girls' middle school; at the age of 16, because of her excellent grades, the old pastor recommended her to go to Study abroad in England.

The old pastor originally wanted to recommend her to study medicine in England, but she suffered from mild haemorrhage... Later, on the recommendation of her tutor, she switched to majoring in literature and taking history as an elective.

It just didn't last long.

Before she graduated, she was "escorted" back to China and was going to marry Lin Yuehong.

Hui Yi eyebrows thumped the quilt.

In this life, of course she will not repeat the same mistakes!
