Winter's End, Spring's Reckoning

"Given a new chance at life, upon learning of my husband's supposed death, the first thing I did was to register him as dead.In my previous life, after my husband, Jonah Lloyd, learned that his elder brother, Noah, had died in an accident, he resolved to assume his brother's identity and provide for his widowed sister-in-law.All because the young widow from the city couldn't withstand the gossip of the village.As for me, coming from humble origins, even without my husband, I could survive on my own.When I heard the news, I truly believed that my husband had died in an accident. I was determined to raise our daughter with all my heart.That year, during a blizzard, while his family huddled together and celebrated in the warmth, I was out there fighting over the money after selling my body. I bled out and died in the harsh, cold night. My daughter, Tina, left waiting for me to bring back good, starved to death in the bitter winter.Only after death did I learn that my husband hadn't died. He had spent his entire life in his brother's name, protecting the widow, living to see his children and grandchildren grow old around him.And now, reopening my eyes, I had returned to the very day my husband died in an accident."
