Song Yang was dead. Chu Lan wanted to take Song Yang away even if he had to die. This was deeply ingrained in the minds of the Song family. They believed that Chu Lan was the reincarnation of a jinx. They traveled thousands of miles to the village to find the Chu family to settle the score. They turned the Chu family upside down and smashed it into pieces!
The captain arrived with his men, but Song Yang's family cried and gasped for breath. They wanted to settle the score like crazy. From a reasonable point of view, he really couldn't stop them. Even in his heart, he felt that Chu Lan had harmed the family. Although Song Yang wasn't the best educated youth in the village, he was usually okay. If it weren't for Chu Lan, how could things have turned out like this?
Chu Lan's mother had already gone crazy. The Song family wanted to make them pay the price, but there was nothing they could do. No matter how grievances were committed, there was a debtor. Chu Lan was dead, so they could only make trouble for his family.
After the Song family left, the Chu family really became the target of public criticism. The villagers were still superstitious in their hearts. They firmly believed that Chu Lan was a jinx. Especially when the "jinx" and "lucky star" came from the Chu family, they believed it even more.
The sisters of the Chu family … One was a jinx and the other was a jinx. It was just that the Chu family mixed them up. They said that Chu Xiang was the jinx and drove her out of the house. They treated the fake jinx as a treasure and even raised the son-in-law that the fake jinx brought back.
In the end, Chu Xiang lived a good life. Not only did she bring honor to her ancestors, but she also left her name in history. What about Chu Lan? The jinx was becoming more and more obvious. Look at the Chu family now. Look at her parents now. Look at the man she married and her in-laws. Look at herself. What about her?
The reason why she was able to live well for so many years was probably because Chu Xiang's family was close to her, giving her a blessing. Just like in the past, the Chu family had always been well-off. At the very least, no one in the Chu family had ever gone hungry. Chu Lan and Chu Xin were also good children. They had never done anything annoying.
But after Chu Xiang left the Chu family, all the lives of the Chu family plummeted into an irreversible abyss, and no one could pull them back. Why? What else could it be? Wasn't it because they chased away their lucky star and desperately kept Chu Lan, this jinx, alive?
The news that Chu Xiang was the reincarnation of a lucky star had become a secret that everyone in the county knew!
The country did not allow superstitions. No one dared to do anything blatantly, but they believed in it. Look at how much benefit Chu Xiang had brought to their country. How much benefit did it bring to their counties and villages? That Superintendent Fang has been promoted!
All of the things that Chu Xiang had used that were still in her possession had been snatched up by the villagers. The Chu family relied on this to make some money, but this was a one-time deal. After a few meals, they were beaten back to their original state.
Chu Weiguo had a promising eldest daughter who did not acknowledge him. He also had a son who was in prison. Now that his eldest brother did not care about the family, he alone became the pillar of the Chu family, and he had no successor. Facing the crying Old Madam Chu and Li Yuezhen made him very irritated. He gradually began to drink. The little money at home was all used to buy alcohol. The family had really entered a bottomless abyss, and they could no longer see the light of day.
This was not the era where the Internet was developed. It was not the era where one could casually go online and cause a heated discussion. It was difficult for the Chu family to find Chu Xiang, especially because of Chu Xiang's special identity. If they wanted to talk bad about Chu Xiang, even the ordinary people would despise them. Chu Xiang had completely broken away from their control. They could do nothing to Chu Xiang.
Chu Xiang had been completely cut off from them, and there was no longer any trace of interaction between them. To them, she had become a legendary figure that they could only see in the news. She was like a star that could not be picked. She was so far away that they could only look up to her.
Chu Xiang, who had been established as a positive energy, accepted many interviews. Because she was better than other military personnel at dealing with such matters, the higher-ups gave her more and more work in this area. It was as if they wanted her to be the face of the military personnel. Chu Xiang did not know whether to laugh or cry.
After the Chu family's story was blown away, Chu Xiang's life gradually returned to normal. She returned to the military camp and trained the soldiers with Yin Xu. They were the sharpest troops, and it was not an exaggeration to train until they became stronger.
In times of peace, there were many conflicts that the ordinary people did not know about. There were also many difficult and dangerous tasks. Chu Xiang and Yin Xu had reached a high level of consensus in this regard. Chu Xiang did it for fun, while Yin Xu loved the country. Their goal was the same, which was to pick the most difficult and dangerous tasks to do.
The husband and wife slowly disappeared from people's sight. However, their reputation in the military became more and more famous, and their military achievements increased. As long as the husband and wife worked together, there was no task that could not be completed. Even if they were injured, the person who injured them would not be able to see the sun in the future.
They were like the sharpest knife. They would go wherever they were needed. Their whereabouts became more and more mysterious, and the number of people who saw them became less and less.
Chu Xiang felt that compared to the apocalypse, this kind of task was more interesting. Because there were no disgusting zombies, no dirty ruins. No matter how dangerous it was, they would be dealing with people. As the saying goes, "Fighting with people is endless fun." Sure enough, this was the truth. It was much more interesting than going on a task in the apocalypse.
They lived such a dangerous life. Of course, they could not take good care of their family. Fortunately, the country took good care of their family. The people in the military compound were also very friendly to Yang Yuelan and Yin Qiuwen. They got along with them as if they were family.
In a few years, Shouhou had seized the good opportunity of the reform. He became one of the first people to become rich. He was one of the leaders among them. He opened a company in the capital. It became bigger and bigger.
Yin Qiuwen also graduated with excellent results. As the family member of Yin Xu and Chu Xiang, she was always the focus of attention. After graduation, she was assigned to work in the government according to her actual ability. Yang Yuelan became the director of the Women's Federation. She made a lot of like-minded friends. She laughed with them every time. Her life was very interesting.
When Chu Xiang and Yin Xu were not at home, Shouhou often went to buy things to visit them on weekends. As time went by, Skinny Monkey and Yin Qiuwen got together and became a real family with them. When they got married, they deliberately waited for Chu Xiang and Yin Xu to come back. They took advantage of their rare holiday to hold a simple wedding.
It was popular to wear wedding dresses at this time. It was popular to ask the bride and groom to bite the same apple. They also asked the bride and groom to play games. Everyone cheered together. It was noisy and happy.
Yin Xu and Chu Xiang looked at them outside. Yin Xu could not help but ask, "After seeing them, will you think that our wedding was too simple?"
"Is it important?" Chu Xiang turned to look at him, "Is there any difference to us whether we are married or not, whether there is a wedding or not, whether the wedding is grand or not?"
Yin Xu thought for a while, "There is no cherry blossom."
Chu Xiang shrugged and laughed, "That's it. We don't even know where our marriage certificate is. Aren't you getting old? Why are you thinking about this kind of strange thing? "
Yin Xu touched his eyebrows and chuckled. He whispered in her ear, "I'll let you try it tonight. Am I old?"
Their holiday was very short. After spending two warm days with their families, they set off again and disappeared without a trace.
Gradually, many people forgot about them. No one said that Chu Xiang was the reincarnation of a lucky star. People who admired Chu Xiang admired her strength more. It had nothing to do with luck. No one compared her with Chu Lan. They were no longer on the same level. They were not from the same world.
But the comparison between them taught many people a lesson. It was meaningless to compare with others. The most important thing was to always surpass oneself. People with good taste could not rely on "powerful" people. Only by relying on oneself could one live the life they really wanted.
In this era, the idea of self-improvement for women was advocated. Chu Xiang was undoubtedly the most outstanding woman of the new era.
She grew up in a patriarchal family. How much had she suffered? How much had she suffered? Everyone knew what kind of people the Chu family was. Even with her background, she could still become a great hero praised by everyone. She even kept moving forward after marriage. She made countless contributions and her military rank was getting higher and higher. Everything she had was fought for by herself. She had accepted so many interviews and had never complained about the hardships of life. She was what all new women yearned for. She was independent, self-reliant, and always had a good sense of propriety.
When Chu Xiang was addicted to missions, someone had already written a biography for her. It was a very formal, serious, and heavy biography — "The Biography of Chu Xiang." Someone had also filmed a movie. Her story, her and Yin Xu's story, revolved around the things that people knew about her life. It made up for her entire legendary life.
This was the first time that her positive image as a heroic figure had spread in this world, and she had a huge influence on this world.
Heroes were created in every era. Perhaps this time, she just happened to coincide with it. Although this development was not the same as Chu Xiang's initial goal of joining the army, she did not deliberately destroy this image. She just became more and more mysterious, more and more unfathomable, adding more and more legendary to the Chu Xiang of this life.
In this life, Chu Xiang left this world at the age of seventy. Because she couldn't cultivate in this life, and because she went on missions all year round, she had many hidden injuries. Under the circumstances where she didn't have any miraculous medicine to treat her injuries, she naturally bid farewell to this place. She bid farewell to an unforgettable red era, and also bid farewell to Yin Xu.
Yin Xu, whose hair was completely white, sat upright on the edge of the bed. His back was still straight. He looked like a soldier at first glance. He held Chu Xiang's hand the whole time. It was not very tight, but not very loose, just like how he had always been by her side in this life. He was not very close, but not very far. He was always there, where she could see him if she turned her head.
After Chu Xiang closed her eyes, he raised his hand and gently stroked the hair on Chu Xiang's temples. He smiled faintly. "Lucky star, in your next life, go to a good family. Don't suffer so much."
The scene under the tree in the hospital that year appeared in his mind. The pale girl seemed to have casually mentioned, "Let's write an agreement. After a few years, I'll regain my freedom …"
A fake marriage agreement, a collaboration on a whim, had helped them live their entire lives. Now, their hair was white. She had passed away, and he was about to leave this world.
Yin Xu gently covered Chu Xiang with a thin blanket. Finally, he held her hand. "My lucky star, goodbye."
