The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!-Chapter 245: Reunion with an Old Acquaintance

Gu Mei also asked herself why she had to do this.

The silver jewelry and clothes in her hands totaled more than forty taels.

If she was frugal, it might last ten years.

But she still gave away the silver.

She felt that perhaps she was atoning for her sins.

Atoning for the sin of abandoning her younger siblings in a past life, and harming her brother’s sister in this life.

She knew that Yun Jiao and Xiao Chuan were doing well now; they didn’t need her atonement.

So she decided to treat her remaining family well.

Thinking of Yun Jiao, Gu Mei felt a sense of shame and had no place to hide.

She had asked herself countless times, if she and Yun Jiao were in reversed situations, would she save Yun Jiao?

Of course not.

She would take the five hundred taels of silver, buy beautiful clothes and jewelry, maybe buy some land; in short, she would rely on that silver to live a life free of worries.

As for what happened to her younger siblings, what did it have to do with her?

She couldn’t understand why Yun Jiao was so foolish.

Even though she, the elder sister, wasn’t kind to her, what was Yun Jiao after?

Gu Mei could only conclude that Yun Jiao resembled their father, kind-hearted and valuing family ties.

She also knew that Yun Jiao was no longer the same Yun Jiao as before, perhaps she was reborn just like her.

Otherwise, there was no way to explain the five hundred taels of silver.

Now she only hoped that her sister and brother lived a life of peace and happiness.

As for their equally selfish and indifferent mother, she no longer bothered to resent her.

Everyone’s life is their own choice.

And the life she had now, she thought was good.

She no longer painted her brows or eyes, dressed plainly every day, and earned her keep with her own hands, which she thought was better than relying on a man.

She told her aunt she didn’t plan to marry again in this life, and her aunt said, fine, stay at home for the rest of your life.

Rows of ropes were set up in the yard to hang clothes. Gu Mei neatly folded the clothes she had taken back from the house.

She packed the clothes in a bundle, told her aunt who was mending clothes inside, "I’m off to deliver the clothes."

Her aunt’s response came from inside, "Alright, be careful on the road."

Gu Mei took the bundle out the door and delivered the clothes one family at a time, soon finishing her rounds.

She turned into a small street, and at the end of it, after turning a corner, she would be home.

It was then that Gu Mei saw a man.

The man she married in her past life.

The man was just as she remembered, in his twenties, with slightly dark skin, a broad chin, and his eyebrows and nose were shapes she liked.

Gu Mei’s steps suddenly stopped. She watched the man walk closer, her tears falling like broken pearls.

Unable to control her emotions any longer, she squatted on the ground, buried her head, and wailed.

Wang Hao saw Gu Mei from afar. He felt the girl seemed familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before.

Who knew, looking at her, the girl seemed grief-stricken, then simply began to wail.

Wang Hao was a little flustered, inexplicably feeling that the girl’s crying had something to do with him.

He walked up to the girl, at a loss, and softly said, "Miss, are you okay?"

Gu Mei cried uncontrollably, and she didn’t know how long it took. Her legs were numb from squatting before she wiped her tears and stood up.

Wang Hao was still there, looking at her nervously, wanting to speak but hesitating.

Gu Mei, as if nothing had happened, lowered her eyes and walked quickly forward.

Wang Hao hesitated for a moment, then suddenly caught up, "Miss, I feel you look very familiar. May I boldly ask, are you married?"
