From the moment my mother died, what would it have been like if time could restart?
Who would have paid for my mother's burial expenses?
Huang Xiaojue would definitely have been willing to cover them, right?
Yes, even if his mother had been against it, he would certainly have paid.
And then what?
Would I have married Huang Xiaojue smoothly? And then lived a lifetime under the shadow of his mother, trembling with fear? Suppressing myself due to my feelings of inferiority, not even daring to breathe deeply? Then, having children, and finally, after ten years as a daughter-in-law, would I have become a matriarch in my own right?
Would I have dared to raise my voice to Huang Xiaojue?
Dared to show him any disrespect?
If I hadn't managed to marry Huang Xiaojue, wouldn't it have been even more miserable? A nine-to-five existence, travel-worn and weary, would have been the best-case scenario. Wouldn't I have fallen even lower?
