The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

Jiang breathed a sigh of relief. Although she had a smile on her face, tears kept flowing out.

"Silly child, you're okay. I'm happier than anyone else." She paused, wiped her tears, and continued, "Just now, I was afraid of touching on your sad memories. Now that none of these things have happened, I'm so happy. How could I not believe you?"

Looking at her crying and laughing, Song Yuntang's eyes also turned red, and she reached out and hugged her.

"Thank you for believing in me, Mom."

The human heart is made of flesh.

She saw every detail of how Jiang treated her these days.

Being captured by bandits is a matter of concern to a woman's reputation.

This is a big deal.

I didn't expect her to believe it without even asking.

Jiang was stunned at first, then patted her back with a look of heartache.

"You're an honest child. If you say no, then it's definitely not true." He turned to look at her, "But what exactly happened then? I heard that Miss Jiang was with you at the time. Was she also captured by the bandits?"

A woman's innocence is the most important thing. If she really loses her innocence, even if Song Yuntang has a relatively free and easy personality, she will at least have some emotional fluctuations.

But she can bring it up on her own initiative.

This is enough to prove that she was not killed by bandits.

Song Yuntang shook his head. "Miss Jiang wasn't caught. I saw she wasn't in good condition, so I hid her in the mountains. I took off her coat and used it to lure the bandits away. Then I ran and hid in the mountains for half an hour. If I hadn't been unable to run, I wouldn't have been captured by the bandits and taken to Funiu Village."

"But fortunately, the bandits captured me mainly to help their wives give birth. Not long after I arrived, the wife started having abdominal pains. The delivery took about two hours, and the baby was born around midnight."

"and then?"

Xu Wencheng and Cheng Nian'er appeared at the door at some point.

Song Yuntang continued, "After I delivered the baby, the leader of Funiu Village asked me to go home with a man. They gave me two choices: either marry that man or become the second wife of Funiu Village. I said I wanted to be married, but he said the government had no control over Funiu Village. Anyway, he just didn't want me to leave."

"I thought that man was easier to control than their village chief, so I followed him. As soon as we entered the gate, I sprinkled sleeping pills on him to knock him unconscious. Then, under the cover of darkness, I slowly groped my way to the village gate."

Xu Wencheng was puzzled.

"Since my sister-in-law had the drug, why didn't she use it when she first escaped in the mountains?"

Jiang glared at him and said, "You're stupid! There are so many bandits chasing your sister-in-law in the mountains, and they're not all gathered together. It was windy and dewy yesterday, so how can you use it? If you use it, they'll be prepared, and it will be even harder to deal with your sister-in-law if she encounters something later."

Song Yuntang nodded, "I thought the same as my mother at that time."

Xu Wencheng then asked, "What happened after my sister-in-law found her way to the village gate?"

"After groping my way to the village gate, I lay in the dark and waited for about two or three quarters of an hour. It was almost the end of the first hour of the lunar calendar. I waited for the patrols to leave, and when the people talking at the gate gathered together, I sprinkled some sleeping pills on them."

"And then what?" Xu Wencheng's face was full of curiosity.

"When we were opening the village gate, we were discovered by patrolling bandits."

Jiang in the room, Xu Wencheng and Cheng Nian'er at the door, and Xu Yongwang on the recliner outside all held their breath when they heard this.

Seeing the expressions of the others, Song Yuntang quickly added, "But they didn't catch me. I pushed the gate open a crack and slipped out through it. As soon as I came out, I ran into Xu Qingye and Lord Zhu who were rushing over with their men."

Jiang patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's terrifying just to hear it."

Xu Wencheng's face was filled with longing. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "In my sister-in-law's eyes, did you look like a hero?"

Song Yuntang pursed his lips and smiled.

"That's exactly what happened the moment I saw him."

Seeing that Xu Wencheng wanted to say something, Jiang quickly drove him out.

"Alright, alright, stop asking questions. Your sister-in-law just woke up and is still injured. Let her rest first."

Xu Wencheng curled his lips.

"Mom told me not to ask, and you've heard what I asked you just now."

When Jiang heard this, she picked up the broom from the corner and was about to hit him, "You little bastard, you've been climbing up the roof and tearing down the tiles again after not being punished for three days, right?"

Xu Wencheng ran away.

After all, the young man's legs were faster, and Jiang Shi didn't even touch the corner of his clothes.

But she didn't really want to hit him. After seeing him run away, she put the broom back where it was and went to the kitchen to cook.

Seeing this, Cheng Nian'er hurriedly caught up with Jiang.

"Second aunt, let me help you."

After this incident, the matter of Song Yuntang's innocence seemed to be over, and no one in the family mentioned it again.

The room became quiet. Not long after Song Yuntang lay down, Xu Qingye's slightly hoarse voice was heard in the yard.

"father."

Xu Yongwang, who was leaning on a recliner reading a storybook, glanced at him.

"Aono is back."

Xu Qingye nodded and walked into the house with the things in his hand.

"Does your head still hurt?" He said in a gentle voice.

"It doesn't hurt that much anymore." Song Yuntang looked at his bloodshot eyes and patted the bedside. "You didn't sleep all night last night. Do you want to rest for a while?"

"I asked my teacher for leave and will rest at home this afternoon. It won't be too late to sleep after dinner." Xu Qingye put the things in his hand on the table and said as he opened the oil paper package, "I bought you some jujube paste cakes and roasted chestnuts from the county town. Try them and see how the jujube paste cakes in the county compare to those in town."

Song Yuntang looked at the man, as if she always felt more at ease when he was around.

"Xu Qingye, do you mind if I get captured by bandits?"

The man raised his eyes to look at her, and continued to tear off the oil paper.

"Do you mind that I was once seriously ill?"

Song Yuntang was stunned.

"How can this be the same thing? Aren't you afraid that this incident of mine will affect your future career?"

"How could that be?" Xu Qingye opened the oil-paper package and held out a piece of jujube paste pastry to her lips. "Tang'er is the number one hero in suppressing the bandits in Funiu Village. If you hadn't opened the gate of Funiu Village from the inside, Lord Zhu wouldn't have been able to suppress the bandits so smoothly."

Song Yuntang was curious, so she took the date paste pastry that Xu Qingye handed to her.

"How are the people in Funiu Village doing now?"

Xu Qingye's voice was flat.

"The war at the border is intense. Lord Zhu intends to send all the young and strong bandits to the front lines to redeem themselves from their crimes. As for the elderly, children, women, and children in the village, he has followed your wishes and left them alone. He plans to use some of the silver seized from the village to build a small village in a convenient location, house these elderly, children, women, and children, and then hire a teacher to teach in the village, slowly influencing them."

Song Yuntang nodded.

"It's good. Everything is put to good use, and people are put to good use."

However, Lord Zhu, this old fox, is willing to spend money to build a village. I'm afraid he will have a great harvest in Funiu Village this time?
