"But didn't I tell you before? My dad was a madman obsessed with armor?"
"This kind of madman, besides having an interest in armor and blacksmithing, had no interest in anything else. Moreover, this kind of person is also a madman who would pour all his energy into this."
"So, how could my dad's younger daughter possibly like this kind of person?"
"But my dad's master wanted to arrange a match. Unfortunately, a forced lon is not sweet."
"My dad's master couldn't even force it."
"His younger daughter eloped with the second apprentice."
"According to what people said later, my dad's master was half dead with anger, but there was nothing he could do. Life still had to go on."
"After that, my dad's master went to find his older sister, acted as a matchmaker, and had his older sister's younger daughter marry my dad."
Jiang Ran crossed his arms. "So, that was your mother then?"
The Mingguang Armor Man shook his head. "No, I call my dad's wife, my aunt!"
"My aunt had poor health, suffered multiple miscarriages, and later went to the hospital. She was diagnosed and told it would be very difficult for her to have children in the future. This kind of thing, in the countryside, was like the sky falling. After all, in their understanding, what use is a woman if she can't have children?"
"But as I said before, my dad was a madman obsessed with armor, so he completely didn't care whether there were children or not. Even if neighbors or people he knew pointed fingers at him, telling him to find another woman, he paid no attention."
"Until one day, my dad's master's eldest daughter returned, crying her eyes out."
"After finding out the details, we learned that this eldest daughter had married the eldest apprentice back then and lived in the eldest apprentice's village. The eldest apprentice had also opened a blacksmith shop in his village. Later, the eldest apprentice saw so n from the village going out to make a living, doing business, earning a lot of money and coming back to build houses and such, and he beca tempted."
"So, he discussed with his wife, the eldest daughter, about closing the blacksmith shop and going out to try their luck. The eldest daughter was also tempted. After all, seeing others eating well, drinking well, having so much money, why should they keep guarding this blacksmith shop? Earning hard money?"
"So they went out. It must be said they had good luck. Not long after they went out to make their way, with the help of so people from the village, they started doing so small business and earned so money."
"At first, after the couple earned money, they were happy. But later, life started to feel wrong."
"The eldest daughter found that the eldest apprentice often didn't co ho at night. When asked, he'd say he was discussing business. Even a fool would know sothing was wrong. Later, she discovered her husband was having an affair, he had found a young, pretty girl."
"Next, it was just a huge fight, making a scene about breaking up, making a scene about divorce."
"In the end, the two divorced. The eldest daughter got a sum of money and ca back."
"After returning, she lived at my dad's master's house, which was her own biological father's house."
"Although the eldest daughter returned, my dad's master wasn't happy. After all, it wasn't honorable, coming back divorced. The older generation had this kind of thinking, feeling it would be hard to find soone else later. Mainly, she wasn't like a young girl, easy to find a good match."
"And the eldest daughter didn't seem to have any intention of remarrying either, so she just settled in."
"And once she settled in, things went wrong."
"Because my dad and my aunt were also living at his master's house."
"So, the eldest daughter and my dad often saw each other constantly."
"The eldest daughter was five or six years older than my dad. Before, she only saw my dad as a younger brother. Now, looking at my dad, especially after hearing from her younger cousin, my aunt, that she couldn't get pregnant and was being pointed at by others, but my dad said it didn't matter and treated her as usual, she thought my dad was truly a good man."
"After all, she had been at the eldest apprentice's house for several years, never getting pregnant, and had been scolded by her mother-in-law who knows how many tis, forced to drink who knows how many folk redies. The eldest apprentice also didn't care, thinking her not getting pregnant was her fault. This was also one of the important reasons for their divorce."
"Therefore, she gradually developed feelings for my dad. After developing feelings, she beca bold and told my aunt about this matter. Of course, it was more tactful, and she said she wouldn't damage their relationship."
"My aunt initially disagreed, but she was kind-hearted. Seeing her older cousin depressed and unhappy, and thinking about the feelings between the cousins, she finally agreed."
"If the woman agreed, things were easier for the man."
"After all, who wouldn't accept soone throwing themselves into your arms?"
"But my dad was the odd one out, firmly refusing."
"For him, one wife was already annoying enough. He couldn't even focus on his blacksmithing properly. Adding another one would be the death of him!"
"So, my aunt and this eldest daughter ca up with a plan. One night, they got my dad drunk and let the two of them cook the raw rice into cooked rice."
"Thus, when my dad woke up in the morning, even if he disagreed, there was no way out."
"And then, the weird part ca. Everyone thought my dad's master's eldest daughter was naturally unable to get pregnant."
"But who would have thought, after just a few tis with my dad, she got pregnant. After getting pregnant, she had ."
Hearing this, Jiang Ran still maintained his patience and listened.
The Mingguang Armor Man continued, "Influenced by my dad, I was also very interested in blacksmithing, making armor and weapons from a young age. But I was different from my dad."
"He was single-minded about this, but I was much more clear-headed than him."
"It was around when I was eight years old. My dad's master's younger daughter and the second apprentice, the ones who eloped back then, finally returned."
"When they returned, it wasn't just the two of them, but also their son and daughter."
"You could tell they must have done quite well outside to be able to co back."
"You could see from their clothes when they returned."
"My dad's master was happy about his younger daughter's return. As for the anger he felt about her elopent back then, it had long since vanished. He only hoped to see his daughter again in this lifeti. After all, he was getting old and increasingly longed for family reunion."
"The family was reunited, everyone happy and joyful. The younger daughter's family also settled down."
"The couple opened a small factory in the town. Their children were the sa age as , so they went to the sa elentary school I attended."
"But I hated that brother and sister pair because they relied on their parents having money, looked down on everyone everywhere, and even got people to ostracize at school."
"And what annoyed most was, when I told the teacher, the teacher didn't care."
"I went ho and told my dad. My dad didn't care at all. He only cared about his daily blacksmithing and his interest in making armor."
"I told the eldest daughter, my biological mother. During that ti, she sohow got back together with her ex-husband. She just brushed off, saying she would talk to his sister."
"Finally, I told my aunt. My aunt did want to do sothing, but her health had been getting weaker and weaker over the years."
"Finally, I couldn't bear it anymore. Once, when that brother and sister and their friends were playing by the river, I secretly gave the older brother a push."
"Unfortunately, I originally thought he would die. I didn't expect he had good luck. There happened to be an adult nearby at that ti."
