Chapter 16 — Living Again as a Cousin

Hua Minh Chau shook his head, did not answer, just surprised that Co Chu Da could pass through another identity and recognize him at first sight. But as Hua Thu Y, I understand better than anyone. A person cannot hang himself twice from the same tree. Returning home, I did not sleep well that night. Tossing and turning, unable to sleep. I decided to stand up and not sleep anymore. Looking out the window, my thoughts returned to five years ago. Five years ago, after I died, I went to the underworld. In the dark underworld, the judge held the book of life and death, his face full of guilt: "Hua Thu Y, sorry, we miscalculated your lifespan." "You still have fifty years left before you die." "Whatever compensation you want, we can give it to you." I was helpless in my heart: "Of course I want to live again, but my body has been cremated." Hearing that, the judge turned over the book of life and death. Then his face turned happy. "There is a way." "You have a cousin named Hua Minh Chau, who has become a vegetable since the age of six. Now she only has her body, her soul is about to be reincarnated." "If you agree, you can come back to life in her body." Hearing that, I was stunned. I do have a cousin named Hua Minh Chau, my second uncle's daughter. When he was young, Minh Chau fell into the water by accident and became a vegetable. The doctors said she wouldn't wake up, but her parents refused to give up. Over the years, they have used money to keep her alive. "But I can't take over my sister's body and life." The judge quickly said: "You are a continuation, not a usurper." "Even if you don't agree, a year later her body will die." "This way, it's not too late for you to meet your cousin and decide." A moment later, the judge brought Hua Minh Chau in front of me. Looking at the girl who looked exactly like me, I was stunned for a moment: "Are you Minh Chau?" Hua Minh Chau nodded. "It's me, Ms. Thu Y." She got straight to the point: "Sister, please continue to live for me." "My parents have suffered too much for me over the years, and suffered too many disappointments." "But I was determined not to be filial in front of them." "Even if I wake up, I will still die next year. How about you become me and live for another fifty years." Hearing that, the corners of my eyes turned red: "But... uncle." hai and second aunt want you, not me.” Hua Minh Chau's eyes also turned red. "But I can't do it. My first rate has been reduced." "Sister, please help me. Help me be there to take care of my parents, help me take care of them until the end of their lives." "Okay?" She begged, I couldn't bear to refuse. After a long time, he opened his mouth: "Okay." When I opened my eyes again, I was in a room with a starry ceiling. Second uncle and second aunt saw me awake and were so happy they went crazy. Second aunt hugged me, tears kept falling. That was the first time I felt the warmth of a mother. Over the past five years, I have gradually accepted that I have become Hua Minh Chau. Mrs. Hua's affection made me no longer need to be cautious, no need to look at anyone's face. I was cared for by Mrs. Hua and my second uncle in Nam Thanh. If it weren't for the Hua family's relocation and second uncle wanting the fallen leaves to return to their roots, I would never return to Kinh Chau. I won't see Co Chu Da again. Thinking like that, my thoughts gradually became blurred, then I slowly fell asleep. The next morning, I was woken up by the worker. Dreamily opening my eyes, I heard the servant say: "Miss, the lady said the eldest uncle-in-law is coming to visit." "Tell you to dress properly and go down to meet the guests." The eldest uncle-in-law... Isn't that Hua's mother? Thinking about Hua's mother, I just feel like it's been a lifetime. "I know." After washing my face, I chose a purple two-piece dress and went downstairs. The sound of high heels echoed loudly. The moment I walked down the stairs, Mom

Hua, who was sitting on the sofa smiling, immediately stiffened in place. After that, Hua's mother immediately stood up. "Thu Y! You're not dead yet?" I smiled, looked at Hua's mother with a mournful look, and walked step by step in front of her. "Eldest uncle-in-law, you have identified the wrong person, I am Minh Chau." At this time, Mrs. Hua stood up and pulled me in front of her: "Sister-in-law, we both look a bit alike, but you are Thu Y's biological mother, how could you be mistaken?" Hearing that, Hua's mother was stunned for a moment and then walked up to me. "It's impossible! How can there be two people in this world who are so similar?" "It must be Hua Thu Y!" "Is it true that you didn't die that year? Did you know that your second uncle's daughter is a vegetable so you ran to the second family to be their child?" Hearing that, Mrs. Hua covered me behind. "Sister-in-law, what nonsense are you talking about!" "How much do I respect you?" years have passed, so I can't take into account the fact that you evicted our second cousin from the Hua family in the past, let me enter the door." "If you continue to talk nonsense, I can only see the guests off." Hua's mother, who did not like Mrs. Hua, stepped forward and pushed her. "What are you?" "If an eldest sister-in-law like me is here for a day, it is not yet the second daughter-in-law's turn to act rashly." "You still don't know, right? My son-in-law is Co Chu Da of the Co family."
