And their family looked at Wen Xiaomiao as a blessed child, not to mention that Wen Xiaomiao's father also died, they couldn't be untrustworthy, and they had a reputation as a bully orphan and widow, and their family affairs continued as usual. Wen Xiaomiao's mother is of course happy, although the Chen family is a descendant of the village, they are a little richer than other families in the village, and the people of the Chen family are also kind.

When Wen Xiaomiao was born, Mrs. Chen went to send a congratulatory gift, and when she saw Wen Xiaomiao in swaddling clothes, she was very rare, so she said that the child's round little face looked like a blessed appearance, so she discussed to give their second child Chen Mu, who was not yet three years old, as a daughter-in-law, Wen Xiaomiao's father and mother were very happy and agreed on the spot.

Later, the parents of both sides found a formal day to meet, exchanged the eight characters of the birthday, the token of the Chen family is engraved with a gourd-shaped jade pendant with the word "pastoral", the Wen family is Wen Xiaomiao's mother embroidered a sachet bag, on which is a beautiful lotus, seeing the token of the Chen family, the Wen family is still very embarrassed, they feel that their things can not be handled, the Chen family thinks it is nothing, they think it is very good.

Aunt Li next door was drying clothes in her yard, and when she saw Wen Xiaomiao passing by the door, she hurriedly ran out, grabbed her, and asked, "Xiaomiao, where are you going?" ”

"Aunt Li, I'm going to Wancheng County, my future in-laws are there, I'm going to find them." Wen Xiaomiao looked at Aunt Li.
