Qing'er strode forward, pulled her and said with a smile, "Mom, it's me, Qing'er."
The old woman raised her eyes and looked at Qing'er carefully.
She looked the same as before she was sold. "Are you Qing'er?!"
Qing'er nodded, tears streaming down her face.
The old woman was so excited that she held her face and looked at it again and again, "Qing'er, you are still alive!"
Qing'er wiped her tears and said, "Mother, I'm still alive. I was sold to the capital and became a maid for a merchant."
As he spoke, he pointed to the Fu family behind him and said, "They are my husband and wife who are business owners."
The old woman looked at them in confusion, "Why did the old man and his wife come to our house?"
Lord Fu replied, "My family and I are going to visit relatives far away, so we are staying here."
The old woman suddenly realized, "I'll let you stay here, fine. I just don't know if the old man or the lady would mind."
Madam Fu said quickly, "Don't mind. It's good to have a place to live."
After hearing this, the old woman politely welcomed them all in, and then took her daughter, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, to reminisce about the past. Both mother and daughter cried and cried.
Chu Chenyin followed them into the house.
The Zhang family's house was not big, but it was enough for them to live in. Chu Chenyin and Fu Yanting shared one room, Fu Hou and his wife shared one room, Fu Canghong, Qing'er, and Qing'er's mother shared one room, and Fu Xingcheng, the coachman, and Lai Fu shared one room.
After everyone had rested, Chu Chenyin slowly found out about the Zhang family.
It turned out that the old woman of the Zhang family had given birth to four daughters in total, and Qing'er was the fourth. Her father had always wanted a son, so he secretly sold Qing'er when she was in her teens.
I used the money from the sale to build this brick and tile house.
However, after a few years, the young mother still did not give birth to a son, so her father abandoned his wife and daughter and left home to marry Miss Bai, a well-known merchant in the county, saying that he wanted a son.
However, they have been married for more than ten years and have no children.
But Qing'er's mother's hair also turned white because of this. Although she is in her fifties, she looks like a woman in her seventies.
The other three daughters had already married, so Qing'er's mother was the only one living in this empty house.
Qing'er's mother was very happy that there were suddenly so many people at home, and she cooked all the edible things at home.
There are cornmeal, white flour, and sweet potatoes.
But that’s all.
Chu Chenyin couldn't bear to watch it, so he took some rice and a chicken from the space and secretly gave them to Fu Yanting. This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
