Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

Chen Afu patted Mrs. Wang on the back and said, Mom, I know, of course I am my father's biological daughter. If I am not my father's biological daughter, how could he be so kind to me...

He helped Mrs. Wang sit down on the kang, brought water, put the handkerchief through and asked her to wash her face, and slowly persuaded her.

Seeing that Wang was in a slightly better mood, Chen Afu asked again, Mom, do I have a biological uncle?

Mrs. Wang choked and nodded, and said, Your uncle's name is Wang Cheng, and he is six years younger than your mother. When he was one year old, my own mother fell ill and died...

Before her mother died, she held Ms. Wang's hand and said, Mother Juan, your father is unreliable. You must find a way to raise your younger brother so that he can get married and have children.

Seven-year-old Wang Juanniang solemnly promised to raise her younger brother.

After her mother's death, her father, Old Man Wang, became even more taciturn and rarely spoke a word except when working. Xiaojuan Niang took care of Xiao Wangcheng like a little mother. Although life was hard, the two siblings were still happy together.

Later, Old Man Wang married Ding, and the good days of the two siblings came to an end.

Ding is from the same village as them, both from Xianhu Village. Because when she was a girl, she liked to hang out with young people and let others take advantage of her to make a few cents. She had a very bad reputation. Especially when someone caught her hugging a married man in the woods, her reputation was completely ruined, and she did not get married until she was in her twenties.

Later, she hooked up with Wang's father.

Mrs. Ding is lazy and greedy, and Mr. Wang's father, Mr. Wang, is cowardly. From then on, Wang had neither warm clothes nor enough food. She had to work from dawn to dusk, and even got beaten.

Wang was not afraid of not being warmly clothed or fed, nor was she afraid of working every day. She was willing to suffer being beaten and scolded, but she was afraid that she would sell her three-year-old brother without noticing.

Because she once secretly overheard Ding quarreling with Old Man Wang, saying that she married into the Wang family but Old Man Wang didn't even buy her a silver hairpin. He also said that the family was too poor to even afford food, so it would be better to sell Wang Cheng to a good family so that he could have enough to eat. She didn't think about selling Wang at that time, because Wang was already nine years old and could do a lot of work.

Old Man Wang did not agree, saying that he only had one son. If Ding could not give birth to a son, his family would not even have anyone to carry on the family line...

Later, no matter where Wang went to work, she would take her brother with her.

A year later, Mrs. Ding became pregnant and looked at Wang Cheng with an even more unkind look. She was so frightened that Ms. Wang hugged Wang Cheng tightly even when she slept. At this time, the Chen family in the neighboring village fell in love with Wang and wanted to buy her as a child bride.

When Mrs. Ding heard that there were five taels of silver, she burst into laughter. The price was really not low. It was the price for selling a big girl and a little boy.

Wang did not resist being sold, and thought it would be a good thing if she could keep her brother from being sold. Before she went to the Chen family, she knelt down to her father and Mrs. Ding and told her not to sell her brother. When she was older, she would find a way to earn money and bring it back to her parents' home to raise her brother.

However, two years later, Ding already had a son, Wang Cai, and secretly sold Wang Cheng. The words were nice, but life at home was difficult, so Wang Cheng was asked to go to the city to live a better life.

Not to mention that the Wang family burst into tears after receiving the news, even several relatives of the Wang family were furious. Several men went to beat Old Man Wang, and several women beat Mr. Ding. The long mark on Ding's face was left at that time...

Mrs. Wang cried so hard that Chen Afu also cried together.

Chen Afu hugged her and said, Mom, Afu's illness is cured. From now on, I will always protect my mother, not allow others to bully her, and make her happy and healthy for the rest of her life. And my uncle Wang Cheng, when our family is free, Just ask dad to go to Xianhu Village. Instead of going back to the Ding family, we will go to the homes of those relatives and try to find out where my uncle was sold. Then we can try to find out if we can find my uncle...

As they were talking, Chen Ming and Dabao came back. They just got the news of the fight at home and hurried back. Seeing the mess in the house, and seeing the mother and daughter hugging each other and crying bitterly, I was frightened. He rushed over and asked, How are you doing? Are you injured anywhere?

Dabao was so frightened that he cried, pulling on their clothes and shouting, Mother, grandma, you are being bullied, what should you do?

Chen Afu wiped his tears and said, My mother and I are fine. Ding and Wang Cai came to ask for money...

She briefly described what happened. However, she didn't say anything about Ding's claim that Chen Afu was Chen Shiying's daughter. Wang would tell Chen Ming privately about this. Whether they choose to tell the truth about this matter or continue to hide it is up to them.

After hearing this, Chen Ming also advised Wang, Mother Juan, please don't be sad. Ah Fu is right. After the new year, I will go to Xianhu Village to inquire about Wang Cheng's whereabouts and see if I can find him. As for That mother and son, if they come again in the future, don't even open the door. If the villagers gossip, I will go out and gossip.

Wang said, My brother has been sold for more than 20 years. Can you find out?

Chen Afu comforted him, Don't worry, mom, we have money and connections now. As long as we get some clues, we will always find out.

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang shed tears again, clasped her hands together and prayed to God to help her find her brother.

Chen Afu said again that the old lady in particular had been a big help this time, and he must thank them. Since Mrs. Hu was greedy for the cured meat, she asked Chen Ming to take half of it to the big house, which weighed about thirty kilograms.

In addition, give the jar of ginseng soaked wine to the old lady. The ginseng in the jar of soaked wine was given by Yang Mingyuan last time. Chen Afu went to buy a few kilograms of wine to soak it in, and secretly put a bit of agarwood wood residue as big as eye droppings in it. It was delicious and nourishing. Every time the old lady came, Chen Ming would treat her to half a glass of wine. I will buy another ginseng in the future and make another pot for Chen Ming and Wang.

When Chen Ming heard that he had given this wine to the old lady, his eyes were filled with laughter.

Also, give Hu Laowu five taels of silver and a jar of Xiaoyuanchun wine, and ask him to find a way to take care of Wang's natal family from time to time. It is not easy for people who are attracted by Hu Laowu to sleep well and eat well.

After the discussion, it was already afternoon. Chen Afufang worked hard to go to the kitchen to make noodles. Dabao refused to let Wang make the fire and had to cook it himself. Moreover, he became more diligent, handing onions and holding bowls between the fires.

After dinner, Chen Afu led Dabao back to the new courtyard to rest. Dabao kept holding Chen Afu's hand, as if he had something on his mind.

Chen Afu asked, What's wrong with Dabao? What's the matter?

Dabao buried his head in Chen Afu's arms and said with choked sobs, Mom, after hearing about my uncle and grandpa, I feel so happy. From now on, I will definitely be filial to my mother, grandpa, grandma, and uncle.
