After farming, I opened a family tree

Chapter 185 Brother and sister recognize each other

In Liu Wendong's eyes, Shen Dashan is no longer the father of a marquis or the husband of a lady.

In Liu Wendong's eyes, Shen Dashan is his brother-in-law.

As an older brother, it is natural that there are many things that go wrong when looking after his brother-in-law.

"Brother Shen has finally come to the end of his hardship."

Shen Dashan smiled, which was considered as his agreement.

The daughter has made great progress and the wife has also been granted a royal title, so the family no longer has to live on the land.

Isn't it getting better?

"Brother Shen is so lucky. Hui Shuren is now a third-rank lady, and she still does many things herself."

"Hui Niang has been like this for so many years, and I'm sorry for her. When I married her, I said she wouldn't suffer, but she still followed me and suffered for so many years."

Shen Dashan turned his gaze towards the kitchen.

"Brother Shen, what do you think Hui Shuren's name is?"

Liu Wendong was shocked and looked incredible.

"My wife and the general are from the same family, and her given name is Hui."

"But, is Hui beautiful and intelligent?"

Liu Wendong's voice trembled.

"Exactly. How did the General know that?"

Shen Dashan was also puzzled. There were many words with the same pronunciation. How did the general guess it?

When he turned around, he saw Liu Wendong in tears.

"Brother Shen, let me ask you, did your wife come to your Shenjia Village alone when she was only a teenager? Does she have no relatives around? Did your wife suffer from the flood that year..."

Speaking of this, Liu Wendong choked up.

He really couldn't say any more. He couldn't bring himself to say, "Is it because you saw she was alone that you thought she was easy to bully?"

Is it because she has no support from her mother's family over the years, so she has to swallow many things and has no one to tell her grievances, just because she has no relatives around her to support her.

Yes or no......

Liu Wendong didn't dare to say it, nor did he dare to think about it any further.

Shen Dashan was shocked.

"General, how did you know? How did you know it so clearly?"

"Of course I know. How could I not know? She's my long-lost sister. She's the sister I've been searching for for over a decade with no news. She's the daughter my parents couldn't find before they died..."

The boy does not cry easily, but it is not when he is sad.

"What did you say!"

From the door came Mrs. Liu's shocked voice and Mrs. Liu's shocked expression.

Through his tear-stained eyes, Liu Wendong overlapped Liu's face with the tough yet gentle sister in his memory and called out softly:

"Xiaohui, I'm your brother."

"When you were little, you were naughty and loved to climb trees. You accidentally knocked down the unripe dates in the yard. You were afraid that your parents would find out, so you said it was me who did it.

You liked to study food, so you asked your mother to teach you how to cook. Later, you were the one who prepared all the meals for the family.

I also promised you that when you reached the age of marriage, I would personally hunt a fox fur to make you a coat. However, fate is cruel and I was unable to see you reach the age of marriage..."

Liu was struck by lightning.

The memories that had been buried by the peaceful life in Shenjia Village for more than ten years came flooding back like a tide.

The things that she had thought she had forgotten became clearer and clearer.

The memories that had supported her during the days of escaping turned into grievances at this moment.

"Brother, you are my brother."

Liu remembered everything Liu Wendong said.

She is not from Jiangnan, she is from the north.

Northern women are often forthright, and she was like a boy when she was little. Later, her family suffered a disaster, and she was separated from them. After many ups and downs, her temperament was gradually smoothed out by years of hard work and hardship.

It's just the occasional cheerfulness that makes her different from the gentle women of Jiangnan.

"Why didn't you come to see me all these years? I've been waiting for you all by myself for so long, even until dark, and you still haven't come to see me.

I suffered from cold, hunger, and beatings all by myself. If Shenjia Village hadn’t taken me in…”

Liu had already burst into tears and lay on Shen Dashan crying uncontrollably.

Shen Tang and his companions heard the noise and came out to see everyone crying.

The four elders had red eyes, and Liu was still crying.

this--

What happened? It happened in just a moment.

"Axun and Heng, come quickly and meet your aunt."

"Tangtang, this is your uncle."

Shen Tang and the others stood there in a daze.

Are they taking advantage of their absence to become sworn brothers right here on the spot?

But there was no need to be so excited, her mother was crying so hard that she was hiccuping.

Perhaps seeing the younger generation coming, the emotions of several people calmed down a little.

Mrs. Liu, now a little more stable, told everyone the whole story.

After a cup of tea.

"Mom, are you saying that General Liu is my uncle? Is he your lost brother?"

Shen Tang was also a little bit surprised.

She believed that the world was small, but it was unbelievable that the world was this small.

"Auntie has become aunt, Atang, so aren't you my cousin?"

Liu Wendong calmed down and looked at his sister and Shen Tang and others with a guilty look on his face.

"Actually, this matter is all thanks to Tangtang. Can I call you that?"

Shen Tang nodded, and Liu Wendong continued speaking.

"The story all started when Tangtang came to Beijing and met Axun. It was my wife who thought Tangtang looked like me and wrote to me, and that's how I found out.

So after the army returned to the capital and the court bestowed rewards, I took leave and left for Jiangnan. I wanted to see with my own eyes people who looked like me.

Liu Wendong sighed.

"Over the years, I've had countless people searching for it, but to no avail. Now that I've finally found some clues, I naturally won't miss it."

What's more, if the person who knows you best says that someone looks like you, you should take it even more seriously.

"In fact, I was convinced the first time I saw Tangtang. She looks so much like my sister, especially her eyebrows and eyes."

The eyebrows and eyes of the Liu family members are very similar, except for Liu Xun, whose appearance is more like Madam Liu.

"They say nephews resemble their uncles. This is normal."

"Later, I saw you again, sister. I was certain, but I didn't dare to speak rashly. So I had to ask Dashan first. After all, there are people who look similar in the world. If it turns out not to be you, it would just make people sad for no reason."

Liu also smiled and said:

"No wonder I felt so familiar with my brother the moment I saw him."

One asked if he had seen it, and the other answered that he might have seen it.

Of course, the siblings have met each other, but it has been more than ten years since they last met.

"Brother, Dad and Mom—"

"My parents' health was very poor. Even if I earned a fortune later, it couldn't make up for it. A few years ago, it was already—"

Liu Wendong stopped talking here.

"It's my fault. I failed to fulfill my filial duty. Wuwuwu——"

Thinking of her parents in her memory, Liu burst into tears.

When I couldn’t find my relatives, I always felt that they just weren’t found, but I also held on to the idea that they were still living well.

But the lack of companionship for more than ten years is ultimately an irreparable regret.
