Du Jinkao seemed to have only come back to his senses now, and said loudly, "What is there to talk about?" I'm holding a signed marriage certificate in my hand. As long as she worships the church, she is my mother-in-law. ”

"Ask him where he came from." Jiang's mother whispered behind the screen.

Cui Ping nodded, walked to Zhao's mother's side, and said Jiang's mother's words in her ear.

Mother Zhao understood, organized the language in her heart, and said with a smile: "This son, even if the marriage certificate in your hand is true, this door-to-door recognition should also indicate the origin of the identity, right?" I don't even know where you live with your surname, and with just a thin piece of paper, who dares to recognize you as a relative? ”

Du Jin was not ambiguous in the exam, and he divided five by two, and then told his origin.

His family originally lived in northern Shaanxi, but more than 10 years ago the family moved to Xi'an to run a small winery that produced a wine called "Little White Knife". This wine is rich and cheap, and it is loved by the hired people who are in a hurry to carry the work, and it is also famous among some of the merchants who come and go.

Du Jinkao his father was stubborn and admitted to death, never refused to improve the wine-making equipment, and insisted on using the ancestral family goods. It is because the wine is good, but it is not produced much. With the support of this winery, the Du family does not worry about food and clothing, and there are often fish and meat on the table, but it is far from reaching the point of having a lot of money.

Aunt Tan has been looking forward to reuniting with the fourth master of Jian, but she is afraid that the fourth master of Jian will come to find her, and she has been enduring the exploitation and oppression of her in-laws. It wasn't until one day that Jian Lan was almost abducted and sold by her in-laws that she realized the seriousness of the problem.

She suffered a lot because she showed up to do business. I don't want my growing daughter to follow her own path. After breaking up with his in-laws, he rented a small courtyard with three separate doors and lived a simple life with Jian Lan.

When she opened a noodle shop, she secretly hid some private rooms and took on some embroidery work, which was enough to get by. She had the heart to raise Jian Lan as a lady, and specially hired a rough girl to run errands for their mother and daughter.

Coincidentally, this small courtyard is located in the back alley of the Dujia Distillery. Looking from the small courtyard, you can only see a windowless back wall. From the sake brewery, it is used to dry grain and sake lees. But he can see the situation of the small courtyard clearly.

Du Jinkao is the only male baby in the family, and he is often driven to work on the roof by his father, so he can often peek into the scenery in the small courtyard. At first, I just thought it was fun, and I waited until I was a few years older. Save the trouble. I yearn for the quiet and beautiful girl in the small courtyard.

In your spare time. He would go around most of the street and turn into the back alley, pretend to pass by, and walk twice in front of the small courtyard. looking forward to being able to "meet her" by chance; Occasionally, when he saw the mother and daughter going out, he ran to the mouth of the alley and waited, but he was not able to muster up the courage to talk.

The girl never noticed him.

"Dare to ask who else is in the son's family?" Mother Zhao's kind words interrupted his thoughts.

"There aren't many of them." Du Jinkao replied stiffly, "I'm dead, and my mother is gone." ”

Du Laohan had a cough and asthma, and stayed in the wine shop all the year round, being smoked by the heat and wine, and his illness was as serious as day by day. He is a person who avoids medical treatment, and only regards the old wine brewed by himself as a panacea, and if it is uncomfortable, he will be cured if he drinks two sips. He fell that day and never got up again.

His mother is a typical housewife, who regards her husband as heaven and is obedient, and the most she says in her life is "yes". The sky collapsed without her husband, and the bones of her body, which had worked hard for most of her life, collapsed, and she went in less than half a year.

He has two older sisters, both of whom are married. There is also a younger sister below, who is weak and honest with his mother. He took over the winery, and he had to worry about everything by himself, and he couldn't take care of it, so he sent her to the eldest sister's house for foster care, and the eldest sister gave her a promise, and she married as soon as she was removed from service in the spring of this year.

He can now be said to have nothing to worry about, and the whole family is not hungry.

"Ask him when the marriage letter was made." Jiang's mother instructed Cui Ping, "Ask about the specific day." ”

The marriage certificate only wrote the year and month, and did not indicate which date it was.

Cui Ping's words were conveyed to Zhao's mother, and Zhao's mother turned into a slightly more polite and euphemistic rhetoric and asked.

"The first month of last year, the fifteenth day of the first month." Du Jinkao's eyes were turbulent.

Jiang's mother's face was slightly gloomy, "Ask who he made a marriage contract with?" ”

"The lady of the Wang family." Du Jinkao replied.

Mother Zhao raised her eyebrows, "What is the relationship between this lady of the Wang family and my young lady?" ”

"It's her mother."

Jiang's mother groaned slightly, "Ask him again, do you know when Miss's biological mother passed away?" ”

"The sixteenth day of the first month of last year." Du Jinkao's answer was quite smooth.

This time, without Jiang's mother's permission, Zhao's mother asked in surprise: "Childe means that my young lady's biological mother, that is, the lady of the Wang family, made a marriage contract with you before she died, and promised her daughter to you?" ”

"That's right." Du Jin replied, subconsciously straightening his chest.

"Do you have a relationship with that lady of the Wang family? Or have you ever come to the door to propose? ”

"I didn't have much friendship, and I didn't mention kissing."

"I have no friendship, and I have never come to the door to propose marriage, so the lady of the Wang family and you can be said to have never known each other, why would she entrust your precious daughter to you?"

Du Jinkao's eyes flickered, "She heard that I was pretty good......"

"Dare to ask the son, this marriage contract was made by you and the lady of the Wang family in person?" Mother Zhao felt that he was weak, and asked in pursuit.

"That's right." The tone is less and less reasonable than before.

Mother Zhao looked at him with a smile, "This son, you are not mistaken, right?" When you signed the marriage contract, did you really see the lady of the Wang family? ”

"Seriously."

"Then have you ever spoken face-to-face with the lady of the Wang family?"

"Got it."

"What did you say?"

"Say...... That's a lot. Du Jinkao stammered a little, "I'...... I don't quite remember. ”

Cui Ping ran over, whispered in Zhao's mother's ear for a long time, and then retreated to the side of the screen and stood up.

Zhao's mother brewed her emotions for a while, and then bombarded her like a cannon, "What a bold disciple, in broad daylight, he dares to say what he says and ruin his reputation."

The lady of the Wang family was speechless two days before her death, which the doctor of Shourentang in Xi'an City can testify. Since the day when the lady of the Wang family became seriously ill, my young lady has been standing in front of the sickbed and has not left an inch.

If you made a marriage contract with the lady of the Wang family in person, why didn't my young lady know about it and never saw you?

Didn't you look at our Jian family's benevolence and foolishness, and wouldn't you go to Xi'an to find someone to testify?

Someone—"

"Yes." The two big-shouldered and round-waisted men who were waiting on the side stood up in response.

Mother Zhao stretched out her hand and pointed at Du Jinkao, "Pull him to the yamen and accuse him of forging marriage documents, spreading rumors and slander, and attempting to cheat the marriage."

There are also those matchmakers and ghostwriters written in the marriage book, and they can't let go of any of them! ”
