Chapter 2 The hard-working people are the hard-working people

As he spoke, Guan's mother reached out and pulled her into the yard. The two came in and closed the yard door. Guan's mother let her go and went to the stove to light a fire, muttering her,

"What's this like! Miss... You are ten years old now, and you are still plaguing with a bunch of kids in the water. What's going on... How can I explain to the dead lady!"

Guan's mother was heartbroken and looked in pain, but the fat girl didn't care. She let her nag and put down the fish and puppy in her hand first. Ah Huang immediately started to rush around the fish.

"Wow...Wow..."

The fat girl went into the kitchen and said to Guan’s mother,

"Mom wants to boil water, so it's better to make fish soup. I just wash it with the water in the well!"

When Guan heard this, she glared at her and replied,

"How can it happen? Even in the dog days, you can't wash it with water in the well. This daughter's family needs to know that she is taking care of her body. She is not that thick-skinned boy..."

As he spoke, he saw the wet clothes on the fat girl's body. The clothes were tightly pressed against her body, showing her round belly. Guan's mother was so angry that she stomped her feet again, and her fat body trembled.

"Oh! What's this like? You are the lady of the official family, so... so exposed your body. If people know, how can you get married in the future!"

The fat girl shrugged her shoulders indifferently.

"If you can't marry someone, don't marry me!"

"nonsense!"

Guan's mother stares at her,

"As the ten-year period has arrived, the master will definitely send someone to pick up the young lady, and the young lady will be able to go back to the mansion!"

The fat girl snorted disinterestedly when she heard this.

"What's the point of going back? I'll be free here!"

Guan's mother glared again,

"What stupid thing the little lady said? You are a serious official lady. If it weren't for the words of that hateful old Taoist priest, how could you have been sent out of the mansion for so many years? Now it's time to go home!"

The fat girl still didn't care. Mom Guan was still waiting for her to talk about it. The fat girl waved her hand when she was afraid of her nagging.

"Mom, stop talking, is the water in this pot hot?"

Only then did Guan's mother stop and carried a bucket of water. She served the fat girl from head to toe and then changed into clean clothes. The master and servant sat in the yard, one sat under the eaves and dried her hair, and the other sat by the well to carry water to wash clothes. Guan's mother still didn't give up and said again,

"What's wrong with the little lady? Every year when my son-in-law came to see you, you would clamor for following you, but why don't you want to go back now?"

As he said that, Guan's mother sighed, turned around and looked at her little lady with a loving look on her face, and said in her heart,

"Our little lady's life is really hard, and now she finally survives it!"

But it is said that the fat girl Wu Xinan has a hard life. Her mother was born in the Cheng family in the capital. Although she was a branch of the Cheng family, she was also a lady of the great family and a lady from a famous family.

Wu Xinan's biological father was named Wu Hongwen. Because his grandfather Wu Zheng and the Cheng family were distant relatives of 108,000 miles away, he lived in the Cheng Mansion when he went to the capital for the exam this year.

The matter afterwards was simple, but it was just a chance encounter between a talented man and a beautiful woman. The two fell in love at first sight and fell in love with each other when they met again. Wu Hongwen asked the Cheng family to propose marriage to the Cheng family. The Cheng family and his wife looked down on the poor family, so they naturally refused to agree to this marriage. However, the eldest daughter of the Cheng family made the two elders nodded. Although the marriage was agreed, the fate of the relatives was over.

The two elders of the Cheng family hated their daughter for not following their parents' orders, so they only had a thin box of dowry, but they didn't even give up the dowry. The mother followed her to the Wu family because she was the wet nurse of the eldest lady of the Cheng family. After that, the couple lived in the capital with the meager dowry of the Cheng family. Wu Hongwen was grateful to his wife for her deep affection for him. He studied hard day and night and hoped that one day he could win the title of the list and win the wife's son.

After that, he really won the imperial examination and was awarded the imperial examination. However, before the appointment of the official, the eldest lady of the Cheng family gave birth, but it was difficult to give birth again. The eldest lady of the Cheng family lost her life and left behind the hungry baby. Wu Hongwen was very sad.

Later, the imperial court's order was sent down, but Wu Hongwen wanted to go to Hangzhou to become a prosecutor. Although the official position was not large, the place where he became an official was really enviable. Wu Hongwen could not miss such a good opportunity for nothing, and he failed to study hard for ten years.

So he took his daughter, and his mother and his family, Wu Cheng, to take office thousands of miles to Hangzhou. Only his daughter Wu Xinan was a little weak when she came out of the womb. The road was bumpy, and the wind and sun were blowing, and the child was in a hurry. Wu Hongwen hurriedly searched a small town nearby, looking for a doctor everywhere, but everyone was helpless. He shook his head and sighed, saying that the child could not be saved and asked him to prepare for his funeral!

Wu Hongwen saw that his wife had just passed away, and even his daughter was out of business!

This house was holding Wu Xinan's small body. On the street of the town, I felt like my body was burning and my heart was as cold as ice. I was sad and blamed myself for being desperate and sad, and I wished I could hold my daughter and go to die with my wife.

Just when his eyes were blank and at a loss, a ragged Taoist priest from Yunyou pointed at Wu Xin'an in Wu Hongwen's arms,

"This child has a strange fate. Your family has little fortune and cannot support her. If you don't throw her away, it will be the end of her death if she dies!"

Wu Hongwen was already in a state of lordship at this time. He heard what the Taoist said, as if he had some knowledge of Taoism, so he knelt down to the Taoist priest with a thud.

"Immortal, Immortal, Immortal! Wu's wife has only lost her life. If she has a few shortcomings, Wu will have to go with her. She also asks the Taoist priest to save her little girl because of the good virtue of God!"

After saying that, he kowtowed repeatedly. The Taoist priest sighed when he saw this.

"The love of licking calf is the nature of human beings. Heaven is also ruthless but cannot be done too much. Even if I meet it, I cannot ignore it!"

Take out the golden needles and press the acupoints on Wu Xin'an's body. However, his fingers flicked, and then inserted nine golden needles on the little baby, and then said to Wu Hongwen.

"These nine needles can protect her life for one month. After that, you father and daughter will not be able to reunite if she is ten years old!"

Wu Hongwen said hurriedly,

"According to Xianchang's intention, did you want Wu to abandon his daughter?"

The Taoist priest smiled,

"You have an official fortune now but are not well developed. You can't suppress her fate. When she is ten years old, her fate will change a lot. You will take her back later. Keep her outside before she is ten years old and send someone to take good care of her. You can also visit her, but you can't stay in one place for a long time!"

Wu Hongwen heard this and then he hurriedly bowed to the Taoist priest and thanked him. When he looked up again, the Taoist priest was gone without a trace. He couldn't help but be amazed.

"It's indeed a god who has entered the world!"

In this way, Wu Hongwen took his daughter to Hangzhou to take office. After settled down in Hangzhou Prefecture, he made up his mind to send her daughter to the foot of Linping Mountain more than 60 miles away, bought a yard, and his wife's wet nurse raised her daughter. He agreed that he would take her back to her as long as she turned ten years old.

Last month, Wu Xinan was already ten years old, but he had not sent anyone there to pick him up. Not to mention Wu Xinan, even Guan's mother was muttering in her heart, and she didn't dare to show her mouth in front of the little lady.

She didn't say that, Wu Xinan knew it in her heart. She lay on her back on the rocking chair, with a hint of coldness that her mother didn't see.

"What my mother said is, that's what she said ten years ago. Now my father has a wife and a son, and the official is doing it well. I'm afraid I don't want to pick me up!"

With a stepmother, there will be a stepfather. This is the truth... Wu Xin'an has long understood!

"nonsense!"

Guan’s mother naturally didn’t want her to think so, so she hurriedly said,

"Miss, don't think about it. The son-in-law values ​​friendship the most. He and the lady are truly in love. They were both deeply in love with each other back then. Although they married later, no one can compare to the weight of the lady and the lady in his heart... Miss, don't think about it!"

Wu Xinan snorted when he heard this, looked at the blue sky above his head, slowly closed his eyes, and murmured in his mouth,

"I hope it's what my mother said!"

Wu Xin'an must have believed this before, but now Wu Xin'an was killed by her own father and stepmother. How can she believe it?

Now Wu Xin'an is no longer the daughter of Wu Hongwen, the Hangzhou Prefecture Promoter, but Wang Daniu from Dafeng Town, Tongzhongdian, Runing Prefecture, Henan!

Speaking of which, Wang Daniu and Wu Xinan have the same hardship. Wang Daniu was born less than three years old and her biological mother died. After that, Wang Butcher realized that a widower with a small child could not live, so he asked someone to marry a widow from the Li family in the east end of the town.

The widow entered the door and gave birth to a son a year later. Then she gave birth to several children in succession. Li was a bit beautiful and was five years younger than Wang Butcher. Wang Butcher got this beautiful wife and was in love with him, but he threw his miserable daughter aside.

Li's face is gentle and lovely, but he has a scorpion-like heart. He is accustomed to being a person in person and being a ghost behind his back. When she enters the door, she gives birth to a son and treats herself as the wife of a wealthy family. She doesn't do anything every day, but she only calls the little Wang Daniu. However, if she doesn't go along, she either beats or scolds her, uses needles, pinches her nails, and then puts a basin of water. In the winter, she kneels in the yard, but she uses a trick to torture Wang Daniu. The method is one trick after another, one set after another. Since she was four or five years old, Wang Daniu has to cook, wash clothes, sprinkle water and sweep the floor, serves animals, and is the girl who beats and scolds Li.
