Chapter 284: Finale (4)
"Who are you?" With that, the woman was about to close the door. After thinking about it, he turned back and said, "If you are like those people who came to talk about my next home for me, then there is no need to say it." I've said it many times, I'm not married. ”
Hearing this, the female volunteer was a little surprised. It seems that many people have persuaded her to remarry before.
"Auntie misunderstood! I am a volunteer in Yi County, and my aunt must have heard that it is dedicated to helping abducted women and children return home. We found ......"
"Did you find my gambler and drunkard father and want to sell our mother and daughter again, or did you find my unsympathetic mother, a man who died like me and wanted to come to me? Hehe, you can see it, I died a few years ago, and now I'm so poor that I jingle ......"
"Not ......"
"Isn't it? However, no matter who is looking for me, I am not unusual. You go back and tell that person that it is impossible for me, Chen Chaohua, to recognize them in my life. If I dare to hit my daughter in the head, I will kill him with all my might. It's a big deal to go to prison, and the old lady is not afraid. In this life, isn't the suffering I have suffered worse than going to prison? ”
As he spoke, he didn't know what he thought, so he covered his face and started crying.
It was the first time that the volunteer had encountered such a situation, because he was able to find a home with someone else, whether he complained or not, but he was more or less happy.
But this Chen Chaohua in front of him seems to hate his family to the core.
"Auntie, you misunderstood. This matter is not what you think, in fact, there is something else. Might as well let me sit down and give you a good talk......
Before he finished speaking, he saw a little girl about four or five years old rushing over with a stick, and she didn't have time to dodge, but she was hit with a stick.
Seeing this, Chen Chaohua hurriedly stopped the girl, but heard her say unwillingly: "Mother, don't be afraid, Niuniu will protect you." These adults are so annoying, why don't they do good deeds all day long, but only think about torturing others. ”
This girl is skinny and skinny, but she has strength, and I think it is because she often works. The stick just now made her legs numb.
"Auntie, little sister, I'm not a bad person, I'm a volunteer sent by the county government. If you don't believe it...... Then, look at this sign, this is issued to me by the county government, and there is a big seal on it......"
"Alright, in that case, then you can sit down."
Chen Chaohua originally wanted to drive people away directly, but her daughter beat them, and they were not bad people, but they were not. It's okay to listen to her, and you don't have to go to work today anyway.
As for confession or something, to hell with it.
In this way, the volunteer endured the discomfort in his legs and sat down on a small stool made of bamboo. I don't know where I picked it up, it's broken.
She was worried that she would never sit on the ground at any time.
"Auntie, here's the situation. We found out that back then, your father did sell you for silver...... Later, you were resold by several families......"
"I don't need to say this, I know it better than anyone else. You just said, what is the purpose of coming to me today? ”
Most people talk about these experiences and wipe their tears. But Chen Chaohua didn't react at all, as if she was used to it.
It's just that this volunteer doesn't know what Chen Chaohua has suffered over the years. Her tears had long since dried up, and she had begged the Bodhisattva to bless her. However, it never happened. So, she doesn't cry anymore.
Sometimes, the more you cry, the more people bully you.
"My aunt's mother has been looking for you and wants to recognize your ......"
"Since she was willing to leave me behind and enjoy the glory and wealth by herself, why is she willing to come to me now? Anyway, I can't afford it...... You just said that I said it, let her get out, get away, and act as if she had never given birth to me in her life......"
But when I heard this, I was angry. said so ruthlessly, in fact, he still thought about the other party in his heart. It's just that if you don't breathe this breath, it's hard to calm down.
"Auntie, your mother didn't go to enjoy the glory and wealth back then, but in despair...... Back then, your father liked to beat people the most. I hit when I don't like it, and I hit when I'm drunk. Your mother couldn't stand the beating she couldn't stand it, so she fled...... You don't know, her legs are a little lame right now......"
"What about me? She's gone, what should I do? I didn't have enough food and clothing every day, I was beaten every day, saying that I was losing money, and I was finally sold......"
If you cry, you will be saved.
"Yes, they're all hard-working people. After your mother ran away, she worked as a coolie in a place, and she always thought about you. In this life, I haven't remarried, but I want to find you. No, I registered with the government, and through a lot of hard work, I found you......"
"Go back, I see."
"The ...... of the confession"
"You let me think about it, I'm in a mess right now."
"Okay, okay, then you think about it first, I'll come back to you in a few days."
"Come again on the twenty-first day, but I will go to work these days."
Although there were still more than ten days before the 21st, the volunteer readily agreed. It's not easy for this person to let go!
As soon as the volunteer left, Niuniu hugged Chen Chaohua and asked, "Mother, what did that sister mean just now, mother?" Is it a mother's mother? ”
"Yes, it's my mother's mother, your grandmother."
"Shall we go meet her?"
Among Niuniu's friends, most of people's grandmothers are very kind, and they are good for their children, either taking pocket money or food.
She also wants to have such a grandmother.
"I ...... Let's go hunt the pigweed first, and we'll talk about that later. ”
Niuniu is small, but she is the most sensible. She knew in her heart that Chen Chaohua didn't want to say this now, so she obediently shut up and started to talk about other things.
Children from poor families are in charge of the family at an early age.
On this day, Mama Bai got the news from Bai Zhi County, and she was so excited. Hearing that his daughter had suffered so much over the years, he couldn't help it for a while, and covered his face and cried.
Back then, if she hadn't been cowardly, or she just ran away by herself, or took the child with her, it wouldn't have been like this.
It's just that there's no point in talking about it now.
Seeing this, the Queen Mother was a little unbearable, because she said: "Hey, children are debts." Forget it, the mourning family has allowed it, you can do a good handover in the next few days, and you will leave the palace in a few days. ”
That's all she can do for her.
Hearing this, Mama Bai fell to the ground and solemnly saluted the Queen Mother.
"Alright, get up! You have served the mourning family for so many years, and I naturally understand your heart. It's just that, from now on, let's live with my daughter. ”
She knew in her heart that it was better to let people out than to force them to stay. Anyway, if she stays by her side, her heart is definitely not here. Besides, this matter can also be regarded as accumulating virtue.
Therefore, not only did she immediately go through the procedures for leaving the palace, but also rewarded Mama Bai with some good things. Coupled with her own savings over the years, the three grandparents and grandchildren can live a good life.
In this way, five days later, after thanking the Queen Mother for her grace many times, Mama Bai took the burden out of the imperial city.
looked at the sky outside the red wall and yellow tiles, took a deep breath, and Mama Bai got into the carriage firmly. Most of my life has passed like this, and I am still so tired of living. For the rest of her life, she wants to live well with those two people in Yi County.
This carriage was arranged by the Queen Mother, so after a long journey of more than ten days, on the twentieth day, Mama Bai finally came to Yi County. Unable to take a break, she contacted the volunteer again.
So, early the next morning, Mama Bai followed the volunteer to the door of Chen Chaohua's house again.
When Mama Bai saw it, she cried.
What a dilapidated room. The mud walls had collapsed in some places, so they were tired with stones and plugged into the big gaps. As for the thatch on the roof, it felt like a gust of wind could blow it away.
I heard that Chen Chaohua is still working like a man on the construction site, working during the day and coming back at night to take his daughter, which is not a human life. Plus those experiences from her past......
It's all her fault!
Seeing the volunteer come forward and knock on the door, Mama Bai suddenly became nervous, stood far away, staring at the door.
These days, Chen Chaohua has actually thought it through a long time ago and made a decision. She couldn't understand the taste of being beaten in her heart, and she also understood Mama Bai's behavior of running away back then.
If you want to recognize your relatives, then admit it. As long as the other party is not the kind of person who likes to be a demon, she can accept it.
She doesn't plan to marry again, so she has such a child as Niuniu under her knees. recognized her relatives, how many relatives are relatives, and they can also help her bring a good girl. If it's a boy, it's a girl.
She really doesn't want her daughter to follow her own path.
The door squeaked open, and Chen Chaohua walked out with Niuniu. Like Mama Bai, she was also a little nervous. It's just that she didn't cry until the cowering Bai Mama shouted "Qingzhu".
Although Mama Bai is old and has a lot of hunched backs, her appearance is deeply imprinted in Chen Chaohua's mind. And this sound of green bamboo overlaps the memories.
Who says children don't have memories?
In this way, the mother and daughter held hands, holding hands and looking at each other with teary eyes, but no one spoke.
Half a ring, it was the volunteer who broke the silence and explained the situation one by one. Seeing that the mother and daughter seemed to have acquiesced, they said something according to the procedure and left.
Rao has been a volunteer for many years, and she can't stand such a scene.
Speaking of which, it's hateful, there is domestic violence, and those flowers.
With Niu Niu, there is no so awkward between the three of them. After talking for a while and crying a few times, the two adults calmed down.
Acknowledging relatives is always the first step, and how to live is the eternal topic.
"Okay, I'll go to the construction site in the afternoon to quit my job, come back and collect the things in the house, and follow my mother."
"Mother, although it is bitter here, it is better in the middle of nowhere, no one chews the root of the tongue, and there is some progress. If I leave here, how will I make money to support you? ”
"Silly child, my mother is here to raise you! I didn't dare to tell the volunteer because it was inconvenient to say it. Mother, I have been serving nobles in the palace all these years and have saved a few dollars. Although it's not much, it's still enough to support you and Niuniu. ”
"That's your coffin book, I'm embarrassed to spend it. By the way, my grandfather's house...... Is it close to here in Yi County? ”
I don't know why, she always had an impression in her head.
"Your grandfather's house, hey, there's no one left. When my mother was looking for you, I also asked someone to look for you, but the two elders died......"
"So where can we go?"
"Chenjia Village, Qingshan County, a few hundred miles away from here, is a paradise on earth. Before leaving the palace, my mother begged the queen mother, and she promised to help coordinate, and our mother settled there. Okay, don't cry, follow my mother. ”
In this way, Chen Chaohua quickly went to the construction site to quit her job, simply packed up the things in the house, sold the pigs, and then followed Mama Bai to Chenjia Village by car.
On the day he left, he didn't know what Chen Chaohua was thinking, as soon as he walked out of the house, he took a flint and started a fire and threw it at the house. In an instant, the house burst into flames.
Since she was leaving, she wanted to completely make a clean break with the past, and let those disgusting things return to dust and dust.
Since having an "in-depth conversation" with Gu Xixi, Yao Wushuang has matured a lot. There are many things, and you don't need to be told by the shopkeeper Ye, you can do it yourself. For example, he sincerely honored the second elder of the Ye family, took the initiative to repair the relationship with the second room, cared more about Ye Feng, and had less routines, and so on.
For a while, Shopkeeper Ye felt that life was very good.
Soon after, Yao Wushuang gave birth to a healthy baby boy named Ye Bai. Clear-eyed people know that this is from Ye Feng's name. At first, Yao Wushuang's family disagreed, thinking that the name was childish.
However, Yao Wushuang persevered. Without him, firstly, this was the shopkeeper Ye himself, and secondly, she thought further, that is, she and the shopkeeper Ye would leave one day.
Maybe for the sake of this name, Ye Feng will pay more attention to his younger brother.
I have to say that Yao Wushuang's trick really works. This Ye Bai is a straw bale who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, and he has caused a lot of trouble since he became an adult. Before, Yao Wushuang and his mother's family supported him and settled many strange things.
However, after Yao Wushuang and Shopkeeper Ye both died, it was Ye Feng who survived. If it weren't for the fact that Ye Feng had a good relationship with the previous magistrates, he would not have been able to gain a foothold in Qingshan County.
Of course, that's all for later.
Since Yao Wushuang had his own son, he paid a lot less attention to Ye Feng. In fact, it's not just her, even Shopkeeper Ye cares a lot less. They were all looking at the little boy named Ye Bai.
Ye Feng didn't care about this, anyway, he was not young, and the Zhu family was as good to him as ever. Especially Zhu's words, to put it mildly, even if his own mother is alive, he may not be able to do so well.
So, Ye Feng didn't twist, and directly called Zhu "godmother". Many times, the word "dry" is saved, and it is directly called "mother".
In this regard, Xue Dan had nothing to do, but Xue Laohan felt a little uncomfortable. He can see that his mother-in-law is stunned nine times out of ten. It doesn't hurt to let go of his own son, but it is good for him to hold other people's children.
Actually, strictly speaking, it's not that the Zhu family doesn't love Xue Dan, but they just prefer Ye Feng. There was a secret she didn't dare to tell Xue Laohan, that is, she was a mother and son to Ye Feng, and to Xue Dan, it was just a nurturing relationship.
After a few more years, Ye Feng saw that he really couldn't go back, and felt that it was not a way to be single like this all the time, plus the shopkeeper Ye and the second elder of the Ye family had urged hundreds of thousands of times, Ye Feng went from and married the fourth sister of the Ye family.
On the day of marriage, it was so lively.
In addition to the Ye shopkeeper's family, the villagers of Chenjia Village, the magistrate of the county came, the county Cheng came, in short, the officials of Qingshan County all came. In the end, Bai Zhixian and Gu Xixi also sent a lot of precious gifts from the capital in advance.
Seeing too many people, Chen Jifa waved his hand, and with the assistance of the Yaya Township Chef, he set up a flowing water banquet in the 10,000-person square. Many tourists also joined in the excitement and blessed the couple.
This is something that has never happened before, and for a while, this wedding is also remembered, which is really unusual.
Fan Jiting and Chen Wumei have been married for a long time, and now they have three children. And Mrs. Liu watched the birth of her third grandson and went peacefully. In her words, she has the face to go underground to report to the ancestors of the Chen family.
A thousand words are simple, from the man who came to work in the workshop in Chenjia Village from other places, he found a man who looked good and became a relative, and the two of them lived in the shop, and the small life was quite nourishing.
As for Qianyu, in the process of searching for relatives, he had a relationship with a volunteer, and finally tied the knot and became a parent. Both of them are good people and like to volunteer, so Ye and Chen Jixing also agree with this family business.
Now, who in these ten miles and eight towns doesn't know Chen Jixing? In addition to the family's land and property, now, he is already the village chief of Chenjia Village.
As for Chen Jifa, after Ye Feng's wedding, he took the initiative to step down from the post of village chief and went to Qingshan County to enjoy happiness.
Chen Qianfan has done a good job in the past few years, and with the help of Baizhi County, he has been successfully transferred to the post of magistrate of Qingshan County, and he is waiting for the promotion after the big exam. At that time, the family will definitely move to the capital, and it will not be suitable to be the village head again.
And he has two grandsons, so it's time to tease his grandson.
As for the two twin sons of Chen Jixing's family, they are both smart and very good at reading. In the early years, they both won the show, and now they have gone to the county school to study hard, waiting for the next time to soar to the sky.
The days went on like this, until Zhu couldn't do it anymore.
Ye Feng and Xue Dan each took their children to kowtow to the Zhu family, Ye Feng couldn't cry anymore, but Xue Dan looked calm, just like back then.
In the end, Zhu Shi returned to the light and did two incomprehensible things.
First, he didn't care what others thought, he hugged Ye Feng in public and began to cry. cried for a long time, and said that Ye Feng had suffered in his life, which made Xue Laohan and Xue Dan look confused. How can this be born?
Seeing this, Xue Dan's daughter-in-law felt even more uncomfortable. Her mother-in-law is afraid that she has fallen into evil or is delirious, and her own son is in front of her, but she goes to sweeten her godson.
There is no such truth in the world.
As for the second, the Zhu clan let everyone else out, leaving only Xue Laohan and Ye Feng present. looked at the two of them, she really didn't have the strength, and she knew that her time was short, so she said to Ye Feng: "Quick, call me mother, hurry!" ”
Hearing this, Ye Feng knelt down straight and called "mother" three times.
Hearing this, Zhu's tears couldn't be stopped any longer, he sat up strongly, hugged Ye Feng and began to cry. At the end, he said to Ye Feng, "Okay, you go out." ”
When things came to this, recalling all the things back then, Ye Feng had a bad conjecture. I thought in my heart, when I finished the funeral of the Zhu family, I would go to the Nameless Temple again to see what was going on.
What happened back then, but now it seems that it is a cat.
Only Xue Laohan and Zhu were left in the house.
"Old man, old man, I know you don't understand, and even hate me and hate me. However, I also have a problem. Do you remember that time when Dan'er fell into the water? ”
"Of course I remember, we were all scared half to death."
"Yes, that was the time, when I changed Dan'er's clothes, I saw that Dan'er had no birthmarks. But, but ...... Ye Feng's child has it. ”
Hearing this, Xue Laohan was like thunder. What does Zhu mean by this?
"Later, I took a closer look and found that ...... If you think about it yourself, Dan'er doesn't eat spicy, but she likes sweets. However, Ye Feng has always liked spicy food. Also, Ye Feng is a left-hander, didn't you even notice it! ”
Oh my God, what do you mean by that?
But these are all characteristics that only his lost child has.
"I'm going to go soon, but I don't want you to be good to Ye Feng or Dan'er. I want to tell you this secret, or I won't be blind. After I leave, although I care about Dan'er, do you take a little time to care about Ye Feng, okay? ”
"There are five thousand taels of silver in this box, and I am not partial, you take three thousand taels to Ye Feng, and the rest to Dan'er."
After saying that, Zhu died, leaving behind a painful Xue Laohan.
Why, why did you tell him this at the end?
If it's said at the beginning......
Thinking of this, he knew in his heart that with his stubborn nature, he was afraid that saying it would only make it more painful. How can it be possible to admit such a thing as a child!
After the Zhu family went, Xue Laohan thought about it for a long time, but the final result was that he was not good to Ye Feng at all, and he rarely even met, and he would not take the initiative to speak when he met.
As for the silver, he left it all to Xue Dan.
Some things are wrong and there is no way to make up for them. Rather than twisting and making changes and making them embarrassed, it is better to maintain the status quo.
Anyway, he knew the truth of the matter, so why bother to change it.
After Zhu's funeral was over, Ye Feng forgot about going to the Nameless Temple, just because there were too many things at home. Now, he has to go to a literacy class, a gardening class to teach gardening knowledge, and a tutoring child, which is too busy.
This is decades.
On this day, Yin Ping suddenly came to Chenjia Village, but he came wearing linen and filial piety. It turned out that Kang had passed away. In her life, if you want to talk about happy days, there are actually only one or two years.
The rest is torment.
Now, she is free, but she is not willing to be buried in the ancestral grave of the Yin family, but wants Yin Ping to take her to Chenjia Village for burial.
In the early years, in order to standardize order and protect nature, Chenjiacun opened a secluded place as a cemetery, but those buried here had to be cremated.
However, thanks to the merits of the Kang family, Ye Feng turned a blind eye and allowed Yin Ping to bury the Kang family in this cemetery.
This place is extremely close to the Nameless Temple, so the three of them walked towards the Nameless Temple. In recent years, with the great development of Chenjia Village, the nameless temple has long been discovered.
However, Ye Feng insisted on not allowing the development of this place, but let people build a fence to fence it off. This is the place he crossed over.
