Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

Chen Dabao first said with a proud look, "People in the village think that my son is too young to understand, so they don't avoid my son when they talk about grandma, and my son secretly listens to it a lot. My son knows more things than his uncle." That’s a lot.”

Then, his little face became entangled again, "It seems that Chen Juren's family lived in a neighboring town. His father was seriously ill and was about to die, so his mother bought his grandma as a child bride to celebrate his wedding, and then helped his family with work. Grandma was only ten years old when she entered Chen's house. When Chen Juren was five years old, his grandmother single-handedly raised him. Later, when Chen Juren was elected, his mother did not want his grandmother. I heard that that man later became a Jinshi and married the daughter of a high-ranking official. He has been working as a high official in a place called Jiangnan and has never come back. Also, they all say that Chen Juren is very handsome..."

Chen Afu was surprised again. It turned out that not only was Wang the child bride, but the man who might be his biological father was also the son-in-law who was raised by Wang. Calculating her age, Wang is thirty-six years old, two years older than Chen Ming. This body is fifteen years old, and Wang is the child born at the age of twenty-one. In ancient times, it was very common for women to give birth to children at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and it was indeed a bit older to have their first child at the age of twenty-one.

Thinking of this, Chen Afu felt heartbroken for Mrs. Wang again. She was sold as a child bride at a young age to serve her son-in-law when he grew up, but was driven back to her parents' home after her son-in-law got married. Perhaps because she already had a child in her belly, she had no choice but to marry a sick man who was about to die, and from then on he had to bear the burden of the family's illness. Fortunately, Chen Ming survived, he was a kind person, and he treated Wang and himself very well.

She scolded Chen Juren hundreds of times in her mind. It's really Chen Shimei who divorced his wife who had shared weal and woe as soon as he was successful.

But, doesn’t this count as his stain? Ancient officials also had to be virtuous. This place is relatively close to the capital, only more than 200 miles away. If someone deliberately brought this matter out, they would probably be impeached by the officials. Could it be that there is something else going on here? I'll figure it out later after I get better.

Then I thought, why are you so clear about it? Anyway, I will only treat Chen Ming as my biological father in this life, and respect him well from now on. As for that old man Chen Shimei, he doesn’t want to have any interactions with him.

Thinking of this, he lost interest in Chen Juren.

She then thought of the second reason Xiao Zhengtai said that her aunt and daughter didn't want to see her. Said, "The Chen family has been separated for a long time. How could it be possible that - because of the two of us - no man is willing to marry A Ju? It must be her - she is not good enough and has no man to want, but she takes it out - on On us."

Chen Dabao whispered, "My son thinks so too. Aunt Aju has a bad temper and is lazy and greedy. If I grow up, I will not marry such a prodigal woman."

These words are not in line with the cute image of the young lady.

Chen Afu frowned and said, "Son, how can you—can you curse?"

Xiao Zhengtai blushed in embarrassment and said with a smile, "I heard that this is how my grandma scolded my grandma."

"Swearing is not good. Dabao is a good boy. You are not allowed to curse in the future." Chen Afu said.

"Okay, my son won't curse anyone anymore." Xiao Zhengtai quickly promised.

The next day, Xiao Zhengtai helped Chen Afu comb his hair. Chen Afu once again used Xiao Zhengtai's head as a test field and was busy for a long time. Not only was there sweat on the tip of her nose, but also on Xiao Zhengtai's face before she finally tied the cannon.

Looking at the small tree with pines across it, Chen Afu felt a sense of accomplishment. The situation was always developing in a good direction.

The young lady praised her mother with her big adoring eyes, "Mom is so great, she even helps her son comb his hair."

Chen Afu drew the cake again, "From now on, mother not only has to comb her son's hair, but also make new clothes for her son, and make money to let your son, your uncle, go to school, and also give money to his uncle and his wife. Grandpa - cure diseases."

"Okay." Chen Dabao jumped happily. His trust in his mother was super strong.

Mrs. Wang wanted to comb Chen Dabao's hair again, but Xiaozhengtai shook his head and said, "No, the hair my mother combed looks very nice."

After a few people left the east room, Chen Dabao kept showing off to Chen Alu that his mother would comb his hair, looking extremely stinky. He also said, "My mother said that after she recovers from her illness, she will earn money to study for the two of us and treat my uncle's leg."

Chen Alu obviously didn't believe this, but he still said with a smile, "Let Dabao study alone. When my uncle grows up, he will go to Fucheng to learn business from his third uncle, so that Dabao can study."

Chen Afu looked at this thin little brother. He was really a good kid, as kind as Chen Ming's father.

Chen Afu worked hard to exercise and was busy, until March 17th. In the afternoon, Chen Ming led his family to Dafang's house. Before going out, Chen Dabao touched under the stove again, smearing Chen Afu's face.

While wiping it, he frowned and said, "If you look too handsome, you have to be careful."

Those few people were not surprised by Chen Dabao's move, and Chen Afu also acquiesced. After hearing what he said, she pinched his face and said with a smile, "Dabao is more handsome than mother."

Chen Dabao pouted and said, "How can it be the same? Dabao is a man."

They walked on the path and looked around. The village was not small, with about a hundred households.

The village is surrounded by green trees, gurgling streams, large fields in the distance, and rolling mountains. It is really a small mountain village with beautiful scenery.

It's not bad to live here for the rest of your life, provided of course that you don't lack food and clothing, and you don't get bullied.

The location of Xiangluo Village is very good, not far from Sanqing County and Dingzhou Fucheng.

Sanqing County is the main route for southerners to enter Beijing, and Dingzhou Prefecture is a strategic location and transportation hub, both of which are very prosperous. In addition, this is a large plain, and crops grow well, making it a land of plenty. Therefore, as long as people are diligent, they can survive here. If people's minds were more flexible, life would be better.

Chen Ming, Wang Shi, and Chen Alu are all introverts who can only smile when they meet others. Not to mention Chen Afu, who couldn't even speak clearly and couldn't speak casually. In this family, the most enthusiastic talker is Chen Dabao.

He greeted everyone with a bright smile. Most of the farmers were still simple and smiled, said hello to him, and chatted with him for a few more insignificant words.

However, there were still a few people who seemed to feel that talking to Chen Dabao would mean losing their worth, so they frowned and said "hmm" through their noses.

Dabao didn't take it seriously and continued talking to the next person.

But Chen Afu still noticed it, his eyes dimmed, but it disappeared briefly.

The reason why he did this was out of instinct to protect himself, right?
