The couple hugged each other and cried.
In the past, Xu Dazhu could force his wife to leave him and remarry and live a good life.
But now that the war is in chaos and his wife has gone through so much trouble to find her, he can no longer say these words.
In his heart, he couldn't bear to leave Chunfeng again.
Beside the terraces, Jiang Zhi quietly asked Er Rui what was going on and why he brought people up so casually.
Xu Errui was very proud: "I found my sister-in-law in the village last night.
Xiaoman felt something familiar, but wasn't sure yet, so we went to check it out.
Don't worry, mother, my sister-in-law left from outside the village, and no one else knows about going up the mountain. "
Knowing that there was no problem, Jiang Zhi felt relieved and congratulated Mr. Man, who was looking next to him: "Uncle Chang Geng, this is God's will!"
Little Man, who already knew the news, was not in a hurry to go home. At this time, the eldest grandson and his wife would definitely have something to say.
He sat on the ridge of the field, looking at the night fog that had risen in the distance: "Oh! This is fate! Chunfeng is a good girl, and she still misses the Xu family. She must have suffered a lot of grievances over the years!"
"Guard the pillar and you will suffer from her in the future!"
Jiang Zhi nodded secretly, Mr. Xiaoman is old, but his heart is still like a bright mirror.
At such a young age, one has to live with a paralyzed person for the rest of his life, which involves hardships that ordinary people cannot imagine.
Xu Errui interjected: "Sister-in-law Chunfeng said that no matter how hard it is, it is better than remarrying. She is willing to stay and serve Brother Dazhu!"
As he spoke, he recounted all the experiences Chunfeng had mentioned on the road.
It turned out that Chunfeng was tricked into going back to her parents' home by Xu Dazhu's letter and Li Shu. She ran back to Xu's home several times and was driven away. She couldn't accept it and fell ill in bed.
Seeing her like this, her parents were very worried that they would lose their money and wealth, so they hurriedly accepted the betrothal gift and put her into a sedan to marry someone else.
The marriage was unwilling, so the husband didn't like it, and the mother-in-law and the whole family abused her in every possible way. She did everything at home and outside the house by herself, and she was beaten if she didn't go her way at all.
There was no money and no way to lead. I couldn't stay with my husband's family, and couldn't go back to my parents' family. I didn't even know where to go even when I ran away.
Taking advantage of this family's escape, she finally escaped halfway through.
I originally wanted to find a place to hide and eat wild vegetables to survive, but I still thought about Xu Dazhu.
Xu Errui sighed: "Sister-in-law Chunfeng walked back alone and asked for directions while walking back to the village.
Knowing that everyone in Xujia Village had fled, she built a shack under the broken wall of the old house, saying that even if she died, she would wait there for Brother Dazhu to come back. "
Jiang Zhi no longer knew how to admire Chunfeng. She stood up and felt that she had to get along well with this young daughter-in-law who valued love and righteousness: "Uncle Chang Geng, let's cook a good meal and get together today!"
After Xu Errui finished speaking, Mr. Man next to him wiped his beard that was wet with tears: "Okay, I still have some dried meat at home, take it all out and give it to Dazhu's wife."
Suddenly Jiang Zhi seemed to remember something and hurried home: "Chunfeng came back in a hurry. She must have brought no clothes. I'll ask Qiaoyun to take out her clothes right now!"
When she moved up the mountain, she asked Xiaoman why there was nothing belonging to her sister-in-law Chunfeng at home.
Xiaoman said that the eldest brother sent them all back to his sister-in-law's parents' house without leaving any trace of concern.
Now that Chunfeng is back, she definitely won't have many clothes.
Qiaoyun became pregnant not long after they got married, and the two sets of clothes she bought have not been worn yet.
By the time Jiang Zhi arrived at Xiaoman's house with the clothes in hand, Xu Dazhu was already lying back on the kang.
Chunfeng was still wearing the same dirty and torn coarse clothes, and she was talking to Xiao Mannai.
Seeing Jiang Zhi, Chunfeng immediately saluted: "Thank you for taking care of me, aunt!"
Ever since she was little, she has known that the family's success depends entirely on the help of this aunt.
Jiang Zhi supported her: "Stop talking, just come back and live a good life as a family from now on!"
Chunfeng was not tall, and her hair was brown, messy and knotted, only tied with tree branches. Although she was haggard, her former delicate appearance could still be seen.
Jiang Zhi didn't believe that the frail woman in front of him was the shrew who burned the gangster on fire that night.
Xiaoman's house is a big house, and it is inconvenient to change clothes now, so Jiang Zhi took Chunfeng back to his home.
When Chunfeng wants to change her clothes, the first thing she needs to do is cut off her clothes.
I don’t know how she sewed those fine and dense needles and threads, it was dazzling to see.
After taking off the layers of clothes, Chunfeng exposed her body, and Jiang Zhi almost screamed.
Because the sewing was tight, Chunfeng had not taken off her clothes in the past few months.
Needless to say about the smell, her skin was covered with a thick layer of rash, and the original color could not be seen. Some places were filled with pus and sores, and more places were covered with thick scabs like cowhide.
"It's too uncomfortable for you!" Jiang Zhi felt distressed.
Chunfeng said, "You won't be able to offend men like this!"
well!
There is something worse than an animal, and there is nothing we can do about it. Who is willing to suffer this punishment? Jiang Zhi has nothing to say!
Qiaoyun held her child in her arms and was frightened when she saw Chunfeng's miserable state. She couldn't imagine what it would be like if she was on the road to escape.
Fortunately, I listened to my mother's advice and lived in the mountains instead of running around with the villagers.
In a situation like Chunfeng's, it is no longer enough to simply change clothes, but also to wash away the dirt and scabs on the body.
Ever since the weather got hot, Jiang Zhi had built a bathroom in the woods so that he and Qiaoyun could take a bath.
There was an earthen stove set up inside, as well as a bench made of wooden sticks. You could sit next to it and take a bath, which could not only burn firewood for warmth, but also make it convenient to boil potion.
First, he took some herbs from the attic where the herbs were stored and boiled them in water, then mixed it with the mountain spring. When the temperature was right, Chunfeng took off his clothes and sat on a wooden stool.
There was nothing embarrassing at this time, Jiang Zhi helped her take a bath.
First, use a wooden ladle to scoop water and pour it on her body and head to soak the scabs, and finally rub them with a towel.
Chunfeng's hair was already tangled, so she could only use plant ash to wash away the grease, then use crushed soap locust to knead it into foam over and over again, and she had to comb it out with her fingers.
This bathing lasted an hour, and the meal was already ready. Xiao Mannai finally finished it when she called for dinner.
After taking a bath and putting on new clothes, Chunfeng seemed to be a completely different person, her whole person beaming with joy.
Especially the bamboo hairpin on the head was cut by Xu Dazhu when he was making a bamboo figure for Nini some time ago.
The body of the hairpin was polished with horsetail until it was smooth and smooth, and the head of the hairpin was specially polished with an apricot flower.
At that time, Xu Dazhu only thought of it as something to put his thoughts on, but he didn't expect that it could be used.
Everyone is happy today. We have stewed dried meat smoked at home, dried bamboo shoots and mushrooms, stewed beans, and a large plate of fried chili eggs, filling a large table.
Qiaoyun had not yet given birth, so Xu Errui brought the food back to accompany his wife and children, while Jiang Zhi stayed at the foot of the cliff to eat together.
The precious oil lamps were lit in the room, and everyone in the room was laughing and talking. In the joyful atmosphere, there was only one person who felt most awkward.
Nini sat next to Chunfeng, her head lowered in anger, motionless like a wooden figure.
He didn't even look up at the dishes piled in front of him or his "mother" who was smiling at him.
"Nini, your father said you like bamboo shoots the most!" Chunfeng put bamboo shoots to her daughter's mouth and coaxed her to eat, trying hard not to shed tears.
He came back, but his daughter didn't recognize him. Even when Brother Dazhu asked her to call her mother, he kept his mouth shut and remained silent.
However, she is confident that her daughter will accept her and make up for the two years of owed maternal love.
Xu Dazhu leaned against the kang. Although he could not serve the table, his smile never stopped watching his wife and daughter eating.
There was a happy reunion on Lao Yunya, but there was an explosion in Xujia Village.
The refugee boss Hu is missing, and a woman is also missing!
