Chapter 93: Chapter 0093: Hold One’s Horses1_1

Indeed, Wang Jiao was reincarnated.

She was reborn from her uneventful fifty years of life back to the flush of her youth at nineteen.

Her skin smooth, filled with elasticity.

Her hair jet black, sleek and glossy.

The most beautiful asset was her own face, a naturally attractive oval-shaped face with almond eyes and cherry lips. Despite looking a bit gaunt due to shortages of provisions, she was blessed with good genes. All she needed was her own nourishing diet to regain her health and appearance.

Wang Jiao took after her grandmother, who used to be the most beautiful maidservant in the Lu Family.

Her father, Wang Zhengguo became Lu Father’s reading companion due to this connection with the Lu Family.

In her past life, her first marriage was not a happy one. She was often starving and inadequately dressed. Each year, she had to rely on her parents’ home for food and drink. When the fortune of the Lu Family turned, and Lu Jiang started to rise in his career in the eighties, she finally managed to leave her ex-husband Zhang Yuejin. She could only achieve this through her father’s good relationship with the Lu Family, and got remarried to He Hongjun, one of the first wealthy businessmen to prosper from the economic reform.

Marrying a rich businessman at a middle age, she spent the next few years living a life of luxury and wealth, wearing gold and silver jewellery, feasting on rich food and drink. Wang Jiao was extremely proud of her achievements.

Alas, the good times did not last.

Several years later, He Hongjun died. His children from his previous marriage were not at all dutiful towards her. They snatched away all the family wealth. She could only return to her parent’s home, bringing with her the jewelry and money she had saved, and trying to live off her children from her first marriage.

Unfortunately, even her own children were not filial. They always sided with Zhang Yuejin. Wang Jiao led a hard life and died at the age of fifty.

Once she realized she had been given a second chance at life, she hastened home, intending to marry Lu Jiang before his engagement to Feng Qingxue.

What did marrying Lu Jiang mean? It meant she could enter the highest echelons of the society, command respect wherever she went, and their children would be second-generation military royalty, enjoying endless prosperity and status.

In her previous life, Lu Jiang had never married but instead nurtured his nephew, Lu Tianjun, as his heir.

Wang Jiao did not need to worry about stealing someone else’s fiancé and bear the emotional burden of immorality.

As for Feng Qingxue? In her past life, she had already starved to death for several months at this point. Wang Jiao didn’t consider her poor cousin a threat at all.

Lu Jiang, such a renowned state-level General.

Where would Feng Qingxue, who was nearly skeletal from starvation in her previous life, stand a chance against him!

After Feng Qingxue was saved, Wang Jiao had not seen her. Recalling the hungry and emaciated memory of Feng Qingxue, she confidently believed she was the famously beautiful woman who would capture Lu Jiang’s heart at first sight, then fall in love, and finally blend into happy matrimony. She would take care of Lu Father and the nephew while her husband was working exteriorly, earning herself the position of a General’s wife, and passing the family wealth onto their son!

All the status and property Lu Jiang had earned must not be enjoyed by Lu Tianjun.

No matter how close the nephew, he could never replace a son. Only a son can be considered as her own progeny, a nephew could not.

Wang Jiao envisioned all this, but to her surprise, her parents disagreed. She could not reveal her secret of rebirth to them. Frustrated, she insisted, "Lu Jiang is a military man, who is already a deputy regiment commander at such a young age. His future is promising. If I marry him, I will have a worry-free life. Why are you against this?"

Wang Zhengguo was furious, "These are the exact words I said to you before, you outright refused then. That’s the reason I introduced him to your cousin. Now they are engaged, what do you mean by changing your mind? Even if you regret it now, I won’t agree. I care about our reputation, even if you don’t!"

What worried him more was that with Feng Qingxue, the jewel in the front, Lu Jiang would not even consider Wang Jiao.
