Mrs. Qiao sighed and said:

"We only learned these truths when we were fleeing. Now, those evil people have already made atonement for the sins they committed."

The general's wife still looked angry: "Huh! People like that can't atone for the evil they have done even if they die hundreds of times! Auntie, is the city you are talking about Qingzhou Prefecture?"

Mrs. Qiao nodded: "Well, we all came from Qingzhou, which is quite far away from Fucheng. The two old guys from the Chen family went to Fucheng to ask relatives to help find work, but they didn't expect to steal something from a wealthy family. When the baby girl comes back, she will be my poor eldest daughter-in-law Huiniang."

The general's wife suppressed her excited heart, took a deep breath, swallowed, and asked, "How do you know it's a child from a wealthy family? Was it stolen from someone else's home?"

Mrs. Qiao shook her head and repeated what Qiao Ran told her:

"No, according to what the two Sha Qian Dao said, they were at the door of a shop on a street. They saw a carriage parked there, and there was no one around. They wanted to get into the carriage to see if they could steal it. They were all valuable things, but they never thought that there was a little baby in the carriage. The child had a gold collar, a gold lock, and a gold bracelet on his wrist. They pulled off all these gold ornaments, but they didn't want to take them away. The baby woke up, and they were afraid that the baby would attract attention if it cried, and they also thought that the baby must have gold anklets on its feet, so these two crazy old people took the baby away."

"boom!"

The sound of a wooden stool falling to the ground was heard, and everyone present looked at General Zheng who stood up suddenly.

He looked excited, with tears glistening in his eyes. He looked steadily at Chen Huiniang and asked eagerly: "In what year was my sister born? Did she have any characteristics on her body when she was taken away? Or, did she have any other accessories or clothing?" Are you leaving anything behind?"

Chen Huiniang was shocked by his reaction and didn't know how to respond.

Qiao Ran vaguely guessed the purpose of the general and his wife's visit this time, so she answered for her mother: "My mother is 34 years old this year and 32 years old. The clothes and accessories from back then are gone, but there are still A swaddling cloth.”

Qiao Ran didn't say that Mrs. Chen cut the piece of cloth and sewed it on her inner clothes. She found it disgusting, so she threw it into the space washing machine and washed it several times, and now it is still carefully placed in the space's wardrobe.

When General Zheng heard what Qiao Ran said, his eyes became even more excited.

He couldn't help but take two steps forward and looked at Qiao Ran eagerly: "Where is that piece of cloth? Can you show it to me?"

Mrs. Qiao and Chen Huiniang were shocked by this series of changes. They didn't understand what happened and just blinked at everything.

Qiao Ran didn't hesitate and just said: "Wait a moment."

He walked to the side of the tent, picked up a bag containing his clothes and rummaged through it, actually taking out the piece of cloth from the space.

"That's it, just a rag, cut from the swaddling clothes."

Qiao Ran handed the piece of cloth to General Zheng, and he took it with trembling hands.

Chen Huiniang asked doubtfully: "Ranran, where did you get this cloth?"

Qiao Ran couldn't say whether he asked the old lady to hand it over when she went to kill the old lady Chen. She only said:

"Later I went to the old woman from the Chen family and forced her to hand it over. I felt disgusted, so I kept it in the bag and forgot to tell you."

Before Chen Huiniang could ask other questions, General Zheng had already walked up to Chen Huiniang and knelt down with a "thud".

Chen Huiniang was startled. She wanted to step forward to help him up, but because men and women were not close to each other, she was so anxious that she didn't know what to do: "General, you... what are you doing? Quick! Get up quickly!"

General Zheng grabbed Chen Huiniang's sleeve, with an expression of surprise and deep guilt.

"Sister! Sister! You are my biological sister, and I am your biological brother! I finally found you! My parents finally don’t have to regret it for the rest of their lives!"

Chen Huiniang was stunned. There was a "buzzing" sound in her head, and many emotions seemed to come to her heart, which made her stay on the spot for a moment.

After a long time, those chaotic thoughts gradually disappeared, and her mind began to become clear. She took a step back and waved her hands:

"General, you, did you admit the wrong person? I was abducted in Qingzhou Fucheng. You live in the capital, so far away from Qingzhou. And, I, I, I am a peasant woman..."

General Zheng said very confidently: "I'm not wrong! Sister, you must be my biological sister! I heard from my parents that my sister was stolen on the streets of Fucheng, Qingzhou when she was still in her infancy. .”

Then, General Zheng told the detailed story of his sister's disappearance, which he learned from his parents.

It turned out that that year, when there was no war at the border, General Zheng was ordered to garrison Qingzhou Mansion. Mrs. Zheng took her daughter who was less than two months old to visit relatives in Qingzhou.

That day Mrs. Zheng happened to be out on urgent matters, so she asked the nanny to take care of her daughter in the house.

Unexpectedly, the nanny thought that she had finally come to Qingzhou and wanted to go shopping and buy some gifts to bring back to the capital for her relatives and friends.

So he put the little master who fell asleep after drinking milk into a bamboo basket, covered it with a cloth towel, and took the little master out.

When they arrived at a snack shop, the wet nurse wanted to go down and buy some snacks. Seeing that the young master was still asleep, she asked the coachman to watch the young master while she bought the snacks and then came back.

Unexpectedly, not long after she entered the snack shop, the coachman suddenly had a stomachache. He didn't have time to call the wet nurse back, so he hurriedly found a place to conveniently hold his stomach.

As soon as the coachman returned to the carriage after finishing dealing with it, the nanny also came out carrying snacks.

But as soon as he got on the carriage, he found that the young master in the carriage was gone, leaving only an empty bamboo basket.

When Mrs. Zheng learned that her beloved daughter was missing, she felt like her sky was about to fall.

When Old General Zheng was convinced and sent people to seal the city gate and investigate everywhere, he never expected that his daughter had been carried out of the city long ago and taken to a remote and poor mountain village.

This separation lasted more than thirty years!

Mrs. Zheng's heart aches with regret every time she thinks of her daughter's loss.

She beat her heart countless times, regretting that she should not have left her daughter at home, regretting that she did not tell the guards to keep an eye on the nanny and the mistress, regretting that she trusted the nanny introduced by a distant relative so much that she gave her My precious daughter has been lost.

Madam Zheng shed so many tears for her daughter over the years that she almost went blind from crying.

After General Zheng became wiser, he often heard his mother talk about the sister he had never met.

The swaddling clothes that my sister was wrapped in the day she lost them, there is an identical one at home, made from the same piece of royal satin.

General Zheng saw that his mother often cried silently holding the swaddling clothes, so he vowed to find his sister and let her return to his parents so that his mother would no longer suffer from pain.

However, in the vast sea of ​​people, how can it be so easy to find someone who was taken away when he was still in his infancy?

Although the General Mansion has never given up searching in Qingzhou and several nearby state capitals over the years, no one has been found.

Who would have thought that we would be living in a poor farmer's family in a small mountain village far away from the capital?

So this wasted time lasted more than thirty years!
