At the beginning of Niujia Village, my sister-in-law and I depended on each other.

Chapter 59 Old man, I was originally a member of the Yue Family Army

In the evening, twilight comes, and the red clouds shrouding the West Lake have gradually receded.

At this time, a hurried carriage suddenly stopped in front of the lakeside villa.

"Senior sister, senior sister, we're home."

After Niu Dingtian got out of the car, he opened the curtain and called softly into the car.

After days of running around, Senior Sister Bao was exhausted. At this time, she had already fallen asleep.

"Huh? Are we here?"

After the lazy voice came out, Bao Xiruo gradually woke up.

"We're here, senior sister, please get out of the car first. I'll knock on the door."

"dong dong dong"

After Niu Dingtian helped Senior Sister Bao down, he went to knock on the door of the villa.

"The owner of the village?"

Surprise.

"You take my senior sister to find my wife and ask her to arrange a place for my senior sister. I'll go see the cattle steward first."

Niu Dingtian quickly gave the order, then turned back to Senior Sister Bao and said softly:
"Senior sister, you can go with sister-in-law Jin'er to have a good rest in a while. You guys have seen her when you were kids. I'll go see you after you're done."

"Well, it's important to take care of business, so you don't need to worry about me."

After Senior Sister Bao responded softly, she followed the guards and walked toward the inner courtyard. Now that there was no need to avoid words, she still felt that the word "Ding Tian" was so cordial.

Seeing this, Niu Dingtian no longer delayed and headed directly towards Niu Wuye's residence.

"The owner of the village!"

"How's the cattle steward?"

"Back to the owner of the village, Butler Niu is still asleep, but as soon as he wakes up, he will ask if the owner is back."

Niu Dingtian opened the door and walked in. The smell of medicine hit his face.

When I came to the bedside, I saw the haggard old man sleeping on the bed, and he got close to him with a heavy heart.

"Grandpa Niu Wu."

"Grandpa Niu Wu, I'm back."

He held his withered hand and slowly conveyed his true energy while calling softly from his mouth.

"My dear husband, you are finally back."

After a while, Niu Wuye opened his turbid eyes leisurely, and a smile broke out with difficulty on his gray face. This time, he did not call the village owner again, but just like when he was a child, he evoked Little husband.

"Uncle, you are back."

At this moment, Chen Jin'er also came in. Her pretty face showed surprise and her chest was heaving. She must have run over in a hurry.

"Sister-in-law, I'm back."

After responding softly, Niu Dingtian looked at Niu Wuye again.

At this time, Niu Wuye seemed to have returned to his former glory, with a lot more energy, and he spoke with difficulty:
"My dear husband, the old man is dying. I have to tell you my life story before I leave." After saying that, he glanced at Chen Jin'er tremblingly at the side. Obviously, he wanted to explain it alone.

Chen Jin'er understood and was about to leave the room when Niu Dingtian suddenly said:

"Sister-in-law, wait!"

Then, he looked at Niu Wuye and advised him warmly:

"Grandpa Niu Wu, sister-in-law Jin'er and I have been dependent on each other since we were young. There is no background that we cannot tolerate, so just stay."

Chen Jin'er behind him felt warm after hearing this. She went over to close the door and stood silently behind Niu Dingtian.

At this moment, she couldn't wait to know her brother-in-law's life experience.

Seeing this, Mr. Niu Wu nodded, and then a trace of nostalgia appeared on his withered face, and he slowly spoke out the past:
"Old man, I am originally a member of the Yue Family Army, and I am also the personal guard of Deputy Commander Niu Gaoniu."

"Back then, Marshal Yue was fighting against the Jin Dynasty in the north. In order to wash away the shame of Jingkang, he wanted to welcome back the two emperors Huiqin. However, because of this incident, he was gradually tolerated by Emperor Gaozong and was eventually brutally killed on unfounded charges."

"However, Vice Marshal Niu and Marshal Yue had a close relationship and were sworn brothers. Qin Hui and Emperor Gaozong had always been afraid of the revenge of Yue's army. In the 17th year of Shaoxing, Qin Hui poisoned him with poisonous wine under the pretense of celebrating his victory as a border general."

Niu Dingtian knew this period of history. No matter how it was recorded in the history books, the truth behind it would never be as simple as it appeared on the surface. He just didn't expect that it would be related to his own life experience.

"cough cough"

Speaking of this, Mr. Niu Wu suddenly became excited and couldn't help coughing a few times. He didn't know what he thought of, and then he sneered:
"In the final analysis, our emperor still cannot tolerate the Yue Family Army. Without his secret instructions, he would not have dared to poison the important border generals at will if he had given the Qin Hui dog thief ten courages."

"Grandpa Niu Wu, what happened next?"

Niu Dingtian's heart moved when he heard this, and he had some vague guesses, but he was not sure, so he asked.

After listening to Niu Dingtian's question, Niu Wuye thought of something, and suddenly there were tears in his eyes, and then he said hoarsely:

"But they were still unwilling to give up after they killed Deputy Commander Niu. The Niu family was deeply rooted in the military. They were worried about retaliation, so they wanted to eradicate it, so they began to massacre and cleanse the Niu family."

"The few remaining descendants of the Niu family escaped under the protection of their guards and began to live on the run. It was at that time that I, the old man, settled in Niujia Village and stayed there, often going to Lin'an. Find out some news in the city."

"And you, my young husband, were conceived by your mother during her escape. You are the youngest grandson of Deputy Commander Niu."

When Niu Dingtian heard this, he suddenly felt a little confused. He originally thought that he was a pure native of Niujia Village. He only knew that his mother died when he was born. He never thought that he still had this identity. He didn't know what it felt like for a while.

Chen Jin'er behind him suddenly became stunned after hearing the news. She stood there blankly, silent, not knowing what she was thinking in her heart.

Niu Wuye took a deep breath and then said:

"The Zhao and Song royal family, although they changed emperors and redressed the rebellion by Marshal Yue, they still had a blood feud with the Niu family. After knowing that someone had escaped, they never stopped sending men to hunt him down!"

"One year before the first year of Qing Dynasty, the young master and the young madam secretly went to Ziyun Cave next to the West Lake to worship Deputy Commander Niu, but they were discovered. The situation was urgent at that time. In order to preserve the bloodline of the Niu family, I protected them. The young lady, who was already pregnant, hid in Niujia Village, and the others fled separately, which led to the pursuit."

Niu Wuye's eyes were dull at this time, as if he had fallen into memories, and he continued to speak while still breathing heavily:

"Later, I was worried that my traces would be exposed one day and my husband would be implicated in my pregnancy. After some discussion, the young lady disguised herself as someone who had fled south and went to Brother Zhuang's house. Unexpectedly. Unexpectedly. The young lady also passed away directly after giving birth to the little husband."

Niu Dingtian finally understood why Niu Wuye had always taken care of him so much and looked at him so kindly when he was young. There is no such thing as love for no reason in this world.

"Hehe. After Emperor Gaozong abdicated, he lived well. He lived until two years before the birth of the young Xianggong. His adopted son Emperor Xiaozong dared to directly rehabilitate Marshal Yue as soon as he succeeded to the throne. It was just to fool the world. That’s it, haha.”

"Ahem, little husband."

"You have to remember. You have to remember."
