The old lady is reborn

Here, Luo Wenliang was escorted back to Beijing by the guards of Nan'an Marquis' Mansion.

On the other side, after Luo Wenliang left, Yao Yuan saw that his eldest son still trusted his father and acted according to Luo Wenliang's instructions.

After hesitating, he called his eldest son alone and told him that he had been poisoned.

The eldest son of the Luo family didn't believe it at first. He thought that even if his parents were not in harmony, they would not have the intention to kill each other.

Yao Yuan asked him to go out and ask a doctor to take a look. She heard from the doctor that the poison she was poisoned with seemed to be a cheap prescription.

If it is that rare original formula, it seems difficult to verify it.

The eldest son really didn't believe it, so he went to three clinics to ask doctors to see him.

After reading it, he realized that his mother was not sick, but was poisoned, and that she didn't have much time left. He couldn't help but hug his mother and cry bitterly.

After crying for a while, she raised her head with gritted teeth and said, "It must be the woman from Nan'an Marquis' Mansion..."

Yao Yuan interrupted him: "I have been poisoned for far more than two years. How long have they known each other?"

From then on, the eldest son brought his younger brothers and sisters to his mother's new room every day to play, review his lessons, and eat, and listened attentively to his mother's nagging.

Yao Yuan enjoyed this rare moment and began to wonder whether he should tell his eldest son why his father poisoned him to death.

Luo Wenliang's biological mother died of illness, and his father took a concubine not long after his wife passed away.

This concubine was romantic and amorous, and soon she had an affair with Luo Wenliang.

It was unclear whether the two were joking or really planning on doing this, but they said that if they got rid of the old man, they could be together without any worries.

Yao Yuan told Luo Wenliang's father about this.

After Luo's father verified the facts, he sold the concubine to a brothel and ordered his men to tie up Luo Wenliang and give him a good beating.

Luo's father felt that his son was uneducated and only cared about these romantic matters, even disregarding human ethics.

Perhaps because he felt that his son was useless, Luo's father, who had originally planned to take care of him in his old age, remarried in a formal way.

It may also be because there was such a son in the family that after remarrying, Luo's father moved out with his second wife.

Not long after, news came that the second wife was pregnant.

When Luo Wenliang learned about this, he felt deeply threatened and his family property was in danger.

So they tried to get rid of the fetus, but the woman was very careful and Luo's father did his best to protect her, so although some problems occurred, the child was born safely.

And it's a boy.

Luo's father was very happy. After the child was included in the double score, he learned from his elder son's lessons and raised him carefully.

Luo Wenliang refused to give up and planned to attack his brother, but was beaten by his father again.

Luo Wenliang endured the beating obediently at first, but later he got angry for some reason and started arguing with his father, which then escalated into a physical fight and he pushed his father to the ground.

Luo's father was furious and wanted to expel Luo Wenliang from the Luo family and remove his name from the two genealogies of the ancestral hall.

Luo Wenliang was completely out of control, and soon after, Luo's father died. There were many rumors about this incident, all of which said that Luo's father was actually killed by Luo Wenliang.

But no matter what, after Luo's father passed away, Luo Wenliang's position as heir was secured.

My step-wife and son also received a small amount of property, which was enough for them to live a stable life.

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Yao Yuan, but she accidentally learned the truth about Luo's father's death. After Luo Wenliang learned about it, he remembered that it was Yao Yuan who complained about the first incident and he was beaten by his father.

These two things combined made Luo Wenliang want to get rid of his wife.

Yao Yuan was lost in thought as he recalled the past. Seeing the four children sitting together practicing calligraphy, his heart softened. Forget it, let's not talk about these ugly things for now.

Since she got married, their father had not made any progress when he was seventeen, eighteen, and in his twenties. How could he suddenly become a good man in his early thirties?

It's just that he's getting better and better at disguising himself.

But who should I entrust these four children to?

The eldest son looked up and saw his mother's worried face. He came over and whispered to her, "Mom, don't worry day and night. I can take good care of my younger brothers and sisters."

Yao Yuan looked at his son. The sense of responsibility his son showed was something her husband had never experienced.

Fortunately, he is not like his father. He has three younger brothers and sisters, but one of them is useless, which is enough to drag him down.

Yao Yuan asked the three younger children to play in the yard. He asked his eldest son, "Your younger sister is only three years old, and your third brother is six years old.

Mother plans to find two better families to settle them down with, so it might be easier for you two brothers."

The eldest son shook his head and said, "Don't send your younger brothers and sisters away. My second brother and I have discussed this and we can do it.

There are so many servants in the house..."

Yao Yuan felt that his son was taking this matter too lightly: "It is common for slaves to bully their masters, and there are many who betray their masters. There are also many cunning slaves who are good at speaking and deceiving their masters.

You are thirteen years old, your younger brother is ten years old, there is no elder in the family, how can two half-grown children be controlled?"

The eldest son said, “If my parents are really gone, I will only have slaves and servants left at home.

If they find something bad, they will kill it and sell it immediately. My son will not say anything to them. "

Yao Yuan looked at his son in surprise.

"Mother, please take good care of yourself. I heard that there is an old man selling rat poison three blocks away.

When he was young, he was seriously injured and several doctors predicted that he would not live long.

But he is still alive and well.

Even the rats on the street where he lived seemed to live better than elsewhere.

Mother, you are fine. Doctors are not immortals. They cannot just say what they say. They are often not right. "

When Yao Yuan heard his son talk about this magical creature, he couldn't help but want to go and see it.

If there really is such a person, maybe I can try my best to live longer.

She went three streets away and saw an old man named Li who really was selling rat poison.

Looks like he's really alive and well.

The girl who came back from asking around said, "It was him. When he was young, he was repairing the roof and fell off.

We invited several doctors, and they all said that he would not survive, and even if he did, he would only have a few years to live.

But he has been around year after year, from Little Li to Big Li, to Old Li, and now Old Li Tou, and he is still here."

Yao Yuan felt inexplicably excited after hearing this.

I also heard the girl say, "There are some strange people and strange things on this street. A girl who had been missing for three years has returned safely."

Yao Yuan was in a good mood at the moment, so he asked, "What's going on?"

The girl said, "I want to ask Aunt Wu who sells sugar melon strips and osmanthus cakes at the end of this street. She said she knows the most."

"Since you are here, go over there and listen, and try the osmanthus cake here."

It was still the same slate, but the people who kept the accounts and sold candy on credit had changed.

For example, now that Nizi has grown up, she no longer comes to buy candied melons on credit.

Hua went from street to street for a whole year but couldn't find Nizi, but her reputation for sewing and mending skills was growing.

Until Jingwei took a men's cloak to Hua Shi for repair.

This is that fool's cape.

When the fool died on Eagle's Beak Cliff, according to convention, the personal belongings in their room would be burned immediately, and new people would soon move into their original room.

For some unknown reason, Jingwei rushed over and stole one of his cloaks.

But Jingwei was not good at it and didn't understand it. Even if the cloak was not used, it had to be kept in the cabinet to prevent insects.

When Jingwei took out the cloak again, she shook it in the wind and felt thousands of tiny rays of light shining through the cloak. There were countless insect holes on the cloak.

She took the cloak to Hua and asked if it could be repaired.

Hua read it carefully and wrote: "It can be repaired, but the effort required is too much, and it is not cost-effective."

The material of this cloak is good, but it is not luxurious. The cost of repairing it is higher than making a new one.

Jingwei said, "Then mend it." She only wanted the old one.

When Hua was mending the cloak, she was suddenly stunned. Several larger holes on the cloak had been mended by someone else, and the knotting method at the end was what Nizi often used.

She quickly mended the cloak, and when she collected the clothes, she asked the girl to write down her name. Her name was Ding Qing.

At that time, she just wrote down the clothes to be mended behind her name. Now she has a lot of clothes, and those who want her to mend them have to wait patiently.

Now Hua was holding the cloak and looking for Ding Qing's home nearby. As she was asking, she saw Nizi sweeping the floor and singing in the yard.

At that moment, Hua was in a trance. Nizi was still alive. It was so good. God was so good to her. God let Nizi still be alive...

A huge weight was lifted from my heart, and I thought, why did I miss this place?

It was in Kyoto, but I searched for it for a year and couldn't find it, nor had I ever met it.

Hua stood there blankly, and finally attracted Nizi's attention. Their eyes met, and Nizi invited Hua to come in and sit down.

Nizi shook out her cloak and said, "Aunt, mending these clothes is very tiring for your eyes. You should take a break from time to time."

And praise the restoration of the old.

After hearing this, Hua finally let go of the tears she had been holding back: Nizi didn't blame or resent her at all, and was even worried about her eyes.

Hua Shi now carries a slate and a stone pen with her. She writes: Rong Yueqi is no longer with us. He was beheaded. You don't have to be afraid anymore. Your parents miss you very much. Are you coming home?

Just after I finished writing, I remembered that Nizi couldn't read.

Unexpectedly, Nizi took the slate and read it out slowly, word by word. There were indeed a few words that she seemed unsure of, but she guessed them anyway.

As if she knew what Hua was thinking, Nizi said, "Sister Ding taught me this, and she's very fierce. If you don't learn well, she'll hit your palm."

Jingwei came back from outside and after hearing this, she thought to herself: If I hadn’t learned well at that time, I would have lost my life.

Seeing Jingwei coming back, Hua stood up to say goodbye. Nizi said as she saw Hua off, "Aunt, I will stay with Sister Ding for another two years.

At that time, I could not only read and write... but also learn other skills."

Nizi originally wanted to say the last half of the sentence: Ordinary people will never be able to kidnap me again, but she was afraid that this sentence would reveal that Jingwei was good at kung fu, so she changed it temporarily.

Hua knew that she must have had a miracle to be rescued, and she didn't have the ability to meddle in other people's affairs.

But Hua had to tell Nizi's parents.

Although they had often received various news about Nizi in the past year, they were overjoyed and delighted when they followed Hua and actually saw Nizi in person.

Nizi just said that she would stay here for another two years to repay her gratitude.

The people of Jingzhao Yin had also received the news long ago, so all those who knew about it maintained a strange tacit understanding.

Everyone knows what happened, but no one talks about it and no one pursues the matter.

Be he a bandit or a killer, this time we are all saved thanks to her.

Sister Ding Qing is pretty and has a tall figure. Although there were some men who wanted to marry her at first, gradually, some young men who were sincere and interested in her also came to her.

But Sister Ding Qing rejected her. Nizi felt that she must have someone in her heart, such as the owner of this cloak.

But she didn't dare ask.

Now, three years have passed, and Nizi is back. The sixteen-year-old Nizi was noticed by Yao Yuan, who was eating osmanthus cake and listening to Aunt Wu's story about this miraculous event.

"That's Nizi?"

"It's her."

In order to bring good luck to their parents, many people get married before they reach the required age, and then consummate the marriage a few years later.

Yao Yuan wanted to arrange a marriage for his thirteen-year-old eldest son. He didn't need to lie this time, as that would be really against the law. He just told the girl the truth, and it was up to her to decide whether she was willing or not.
