Nongmen Jia Niang: The little blessed wife of the general's family

Chapter 19

"When I was seven years old, I was hit by a drought. Many families didn't harvest grains. How many people sold their sons and daughters. I don't want to remember that tragic situation for decades."

"Nothing, how many years have passed." Yin Taoniang patted Yin Tao's suddenly tightened arm and said with a smile: "I was lucky, I was hired by your grandfather and grandmother to be a child bride, your father was only four years old at the time, a small child One, running around with me every day, hehe!"

"Why do grandfather and grandmother hire a child bride?" Yin Tao asked, and even Yin Lan stopped what she was doing and listened intently.

"The Yin family has always been small, and has no children for many years. Later, you had your father. Your grandfather was not young, and your grandmother was injured. So I thought of finding a daughter-in-law to take care of your father early; It was sold to treat two elderly people, and died a few years later, and your father clamored to move to the town, saying it was convenient for studying."

"However, your father is also very good. He was admitted to the Xiucai after his filial piety period. He was only fifteen or sixteen years old at that time! Later, he went to Fucheng to study."

"Then did you have a big banquet when you got married?" The topic was slowly led away by Yin Tao.

"The Yin family doesn't have any relatives. Your father is a literate man, and he doesn't like to interact with the neighbors. At that time, there were two tables of banquets. Your cousin's aunt's family, and a few of your father's classmates and friends came over for a drink."

"So simple?" Even Yin Lan couldn't help exclaiming.

"There is no elder in the family, how can it be so lively? It's almost like the marriage of a child bride. Besides, how can there be so much attention to the poor family who can't afford to eat?"

"Where's the marriage letter? Did you write a marriage letter when you got married?" Yin Tao shook her head at her sister, telling her not to be nervous.

"There is no marriage certificate, but when I came here when I was a child, I asked a matchmaker to match the eight characters. Alas, it was a year of famine, and everything was simple. The eight characters are so many years old, they are placed under the camphor wood box. In a small box."

Without waiting for Yin Tao to get up, Yin Lan ran over, took the sundries that had been opened on the camphor wood box, and opened it to find the box inside.

However, for some reason, the paper inside was blurred, as if it had been wet with water.

Yin Lan turned her back to Yin Taoniang, blocking her gaze from looking at the box.

Seeing that her sister hadn't turned around for a long time, Yin Tao understood the situation in her heart and said hurriedly: "Mother, lie down and rest for a while. I'll go get you something to eat. I made chicken soup with angelica and astragalus today, so I can make it up for my mother."

Yin Taoniang pursed her lips and lay down according to her words, her eyes staring at Yin Lan's back a little hollow.

In the afternoon, Yin Tao coaxed her little sister who didn't want to sleep in her room, while Yin Lan was embroidering.

"Sister, is the box empty?"

"No, but the handwriting is vague, I don't know if it's because I'm too old or someone has manipulated it!" Yin Lan sighed slightly, and blamed herself again: "I'm at home every day, why didn't I pay more attention?"

"Hmph, this group of people has been premeditating for a long time." Yin Tao's voice became louder, and the little girl in her arms was about to cry, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly hugged and shook it softly.

After she fell asleep, Yin Tao said: "Sister, the so-called "knowing yourself and knowing your enemy will not be in danger in a hundred battles".

"Then what should we do? We don't even know whether my father lives in the Fucheng or the county!" Yin Lan raised his forehead: "Who do we want to look for? In the past, we could ask Cousin Zhang if there was something wrong, but now, I'm afraid it's impossible. Come again."

"I think he still wants to contact him, but he's just afraid that I'll beat him out with a stick." Yin Tao sneered and said grimly with one corner of his mouth raised.

"Speak well, what does the girl's family look like?" Yin Lan reprimanded: "Second sister, sister knows that you want to protect us, but there are still mother and sister at home, so don't worry about it!"

Yin Tao didn't answer the question: "Sister, I'm going to the county town, and I have to find out something in person! How to go next, we must take the initiative!"

"." Yin Lan knew that she couldn't persuade this little girl, but she went to the county town alone. How could she do it? Just as she was about to persuade her, the door was pushed open, and Yin Taoniang walked in calmly. The three looked at each other, but no one spoke for a while. .
