Chapter 403, Lost and Found

Princess Huai'an took Zhou Wang's hands and burst into tears. Although it has been a long time, she can no longer remember the face of Zhou Wang, but she clearly remembers the events at that time.

She hurt the child who had been born with a lot of hard work but lost her breath, hugged her husband and cried, and even had the heart to die, after her husband cried bitterly, she took off a piece of clothing and tightly wrapped their poor daughter who was thin and sick like a kitten and died at birth, and begged the sister-in-law of the Zhou family to find a clean and secure place to bury it.

She looked at her daughter, whose face was blue and had no breath, her heart was about to break, and the things on her body had already been searched, leaving only one Jinpa, so she stuffed Jinpa into the child's arms and buried them together, just like she was with her daughter, in order to seek a little comfort.

She was extremely weak at the time, and she couldn't even go down the kang, Zhou Wang borrowed brown sugar and made her a bowl of brown sugar eggs to feed her, just after eating, the messenger forced them not to stay for a moment, and immediately went on the road, and his husband knelt down and kowtowed.

Zhou's sister-in-law, mother and daughter, begged bitterly, baked cakes with the only bit of white flour for the two servants to eat, and scrambled the only six or seven eggs left in the house, and heated the remaining chicken soup for them to drink, just to let them be accommodating, and wait for her to raise it for two or three days before going on the road.

But after they had eaten and drunk enough, they still refused to be accommodating at all, and beat and scolded their husbands and urged them to go on the road immediately, but the husband had to beg the servants not to shackle him, so that he could carry his dying wife on his back, but the two officers were ordered to torture them both on the road, so they resolutely refused to allow it.

At this time, Aunt Wang's son came to pick up his mother, and Aunt Wang saw that the errand refused to be accommodating, so she let her son drive them to their destination, and also gave her son the silver bracelet on her wrist to spend on the road, and Sister-in-law Zhou also gave her brother a silver collar from the Zhou family's ancestral heirloom around her son's neck, so that she could buy some food and drink for the errand on the way, and don't embarrass them too much.

Before leaving, Sister-in-law Zhou spread thick and clean hay and small mattresses in the car, let her lie down all the way, and covered one of the only two quilts in the family to cover her from the wind and cold, and tore a few old clothes for her to use so as not to fall ill, and let her take the remaining pancakes and brown sugar to eat on the road.

After saying goodbye to them in tears, Aunt Wang's son drove for more than ten days to get them to their destination, not only did he pay for food out of his own pocket along the way, but also bought some wine and food from time to time to make the two servants happy, and he also had to save money to buy food to nourish his body, so he escaped with his life.

Otherwise, with her extremely weak body after giving birth and the bitter cold and harsh conditions, I am afraid that she would have died on the road to accompany her poor daughter.

Although she fell ill at that time because of the loss of recuperation, her body has been weak and sick, and she has never conceived a child again, but she has always survived. Let her only child be remembered, someone will light a pillar of incense to remember her birthday and the day of her death, so that she can see the day when her husband Pi Ji Tailai will re-establish his name in the world. All this is the kindness of Sister-in-law Zhou's family.

It's just that this Fang Jinpa is not buried with his daughter? How could it be in the hands of Sister-in-law Zhou? Princess Ji didn't think much about it, pulled Zhou Wang's and said excitedly: "I really didn't expect that there would be a day when I would see my sister-in-law again, and in this life, I would have the opportunity to get one or two aunts from the day's kindness, okay?" How is Brother Wang? Did they come with you? ”

Zhou Wang wanted to tell the truth of the day, but he didn't know how to say it for a while, so he said with tears in his eyes: "The princess is polite, my mother is in good health, my brother is fine, and Princess Lao remembers." It's just that who can be ruthless and not help the situation that day? We didn't suffer much, we just did our best, and the princess must not see outside."

Princess Ji became more and more grateful, ignoring the hard work of Zhou Wang and Mingjing, and knelt down and kowtowed to Zhou Wang: "Fortunately, Aunt Wang and you are all fine, so that Yu Yao has a chance to repay your kindness." The sister-in-law has infinite kindness to Yu Yao and his wife, Yu Yao never dared to forget the slightest, but at that time the war was not taken care of by the prince, and I was too sick and weak to stand the fatigue of the carriage and horses, so I thought that I would wait for the world to settle down and then go to look for you, at that time I was also better conditioned, and I also had the strength to go out.

But after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the prince's nephews, that is, the crown prince and the king of Qin, fought to the death for the throne, he did not dare to leave Beijing, and the imperial brother did not allow him to leave a step, for fear that the situation would be even more uncontrollable if he left. In addition, we are also afraid to go to that sad place, afraid of mentioning the events of the year, and we have never gone to find Sister-in-law Zhou, and we have never had the opportunity to repay your great kindness.

It wasn't until last year that King Qin succeeded to the throne and the major events in the court and China settled down, and he had free time, and we thought about it again. In order to let me have no regrets in my heart, the prince promised that in April and May next year, Yunzhou will also be warm, and he and I will set off to Yunzhou to find my sister-in-law's family, in order to repay the kindness of the year, and also to see my poor daughter and give her incense.

This time the sister-in-law came, and it was also a chance for God to give our husband and wife a chance to repay the kindness, otherwise I wouldn't be able to die with peace of mind, I don't know if the sister-in-law can still find that place? And why didn't this sister-in-law of Fang Jinpa bury with her? ”

Speaking of thinking of the miserable and hard-working daughter of the year, Princess Ji buried her head and cried, Mingjing helped her up and sat down, Zhou Wang's family didn't care about the difference in identity, sat beside her to wipe her tears, and exchanged glances with Mingjing, but still didn't know how to speak.

Princess Ji cried for a while to stop her tears and said: "I really didn't expect that I was so close to my sister-in-law's family, and a woman who was so good for longevity was actually the daughter of my sister-in-law.

Could she be the little girl who was only one or two years old back then? I remember what she was called, I didn't expect her to be so old, and she was so good, so likable, no wonder I hit her off at first sight, I always felt like I had seen it somewhere, it turned out to be true, it seems that our mother and daughter really have a fate, why didn't they come today? My sister-in-law's family is far away, you can rest assured, I will love her as my daughter in the future."

Zhou Wang was stunned, and finally made up his mind and said: "She was originally the daughter of the princess. ”

"Of course, my sister-in-law's daughter is my daughter, I will tell the prince to recognize her as a righteous daughter when I go back, the prince must be very happy, and we will repay the sister-in-law's family well"

"No, Princess, please listen to what the women have to say. The woman still has a big thing to tell the princess, she has been buried in the heart of the woman for so many years, but she can't find the whereabouts of the princess, fortunately she inquired about it clearly, otherwise I would not be able to see if I died, and I always felt sorry for my eternal life. ”

Princess Ji looked at her puzzled: "Big deal? Sister-in-law, please speak, don't be polite, if you can help your sister-in-law, I and the prince will do our best."

Zhou Wang grabbed Princess Ji's hand: "I said that the princess should not be too excited. Do you know, after sending you away, my mother thought that the child who died could not stay at home overnight, so she took her to the outside of the village, trying to find a clean place to bury her, who knew that she fell on the road, the child fell and cried out She did not die The daughter you gave birth to did not die, she just held her breath in the mother's womb for too long and was temporarily out of breath, she not only survived, but also lived well until now"

Princess Ji looked at Zhou Wang's in great astonishment, and then at Mingjing, Zhou's face was full of sincerity, Mingjing nodded solemnly to her, and finally stood up suddenly, tears gushed out like spring water: "Sister-in-law, are you telling the truth?" Is it true? How did my poor daughter come back to life? Is she alive and well? Sister-in-law, is this true? Is this true? I am no longer a poor man with no children and no daughters, and I will go and tell the prince now, so that he can also be happy and happy where my daughter is now? What's her name? Take me to see it."

Zhou Wangshi looked at her with extreme surprise, and his heart was instantly filled with emotion and relief: "If mother and daughter really have the same heart, I never dreamed that you have already seen Changsheng, and you are so fateful with her, it is really the nature of mother and daughter, nothing can stop it, Changsheng is your daughter, you are a true daughter"

Princess Ji looked at Zhou Wang's in disbelief: "You mean, Changsheng is my daughter?" Is she the daughter I gave birth to? I really didn't expect it, yes, no wonder I couldn't help but like her when I saw her for the first time, if it's really a mother and daughter, no wonder everyone says that she looks like me, even the prince said so, but her tall nose bridge is really like the prince, which is unique to their Li family"

Zhou Wang said with relief: "Yes, she does look like a princess, the more she looks like her." When she was a child, she has become more and more like a princess in recent years. I remember that after she came back to life, my mother picked her up, and I was surprised and delighted, and I wanted to chase you over.

My mother said that your situation is so miserable, you have to be sent to a place with very difficult conditions to go to prison, it is difficult to predict whether you live or die, if you send it, maybe this little life that has been alive with great difficulty will be ruined again, it is better to raise it quietly, if you escape from your life, there will always be a day when you will meet in the future, so I will leave her to keep it.

When you saw my eldest son called Ansheng, the eldest daughter is called Qiaosheng, my mother said that although this child is pitiful, it is also a blessing and a great life, in order to let God bless her with a long life, even the names of my two eldest children, she was named Changsheng, my mother brought a family ewe to milk and feed her, this raising, is twenty years, fortunately, your mother and daughter are about to be reunited"

There is nothing more surprising in the world than to get it back. Princess Ji listened to the sad crying and excitement, and finally couldn't help it when she heard the reunion of mother and daughter.

"Let's go, sister-in-law, Mingjing, take me to see Changsheng, let's leave immediately, I want to take her to see the prince immediately, the prince will be happy, what happened back then is the saddest thing in my life, and it has always been the biggest regret in the heart of the prince, until now he feels sorry for me, he will not regret it in the future, let's go, go now"
