During the Qing Dynasty, there was a young man named Jiang Shengling in Liangzhou. His father died young and his mother died soon after. The Jiang family was poor and poor. In order to bury his parents well, the young Jiang Shengling sold himself to a young woman in the village.

During the Qing Dynasty, there was a young man named Jiang Shengling in Liangzhou. His father died young and his mother died soon after. The Jiang family was poor and the family was barely left. In order to bury his parents, the young Jiang Shengling sold himself to a young woman in the village.

The young woman's surname is Xu, and people call her Xu. She is not in good health. Every time she spits out a few words, she will cough for a while. When she coughs, she will turn her body over and cover her lips with a handkerchief. But even though she is careful to hide, Jiang Shengling still sees a touch of bright red blood on her handkerchief.

Xu helped Jiang Shengling handle the funeral of the Jiang family, called Jiang Shengling to his side, and handed over her only relative, Chen Eryan, who was the only one in the world, to Jiang Shengling, and instructed Jiang Shengling to take care of Chen Eryan, who was still in her infancy on her behalf. After saying that, Xu passed away.

Jiang Shengling was only fifteen years old at that time. He treated Chen Eryan as his biological sister, and he would hold him in his arms and coax him when he cried and made a fuss. He had to feed three meals a day in person. In this way, he slowly pulled Chen Eryan to the point of being big.

Jiang Shengling took his free time and went to the carpenter's house in the village to learn craftsmanship from the carpenter. With his intelligence and talent, he carved a piece of wood to life and was widely praised. In just two years, he learned the carpenter's craftsmanship.

At that time, carpenters were a respected industry. After Jiang Shengling became a master, they were favored by many girls. Every time Jiang Shengling walked on the street, there would be girls stopping and watching. They also threw flowers and fruits at Jiang Shengling, throwing a pear with a fist-sized fist on Jiang Shengling's head, smashing Jiang Shengling's head dizzy. It took a while to recover.

Afterwards, the girl who threw pears at him smiled and took the basket of pears to find him, and enthusiastically and proactively mentioned the marriage to him, but Jiang Shengling did not agree. After that, several more girls found Jiang Shengling one after another, but Jiang Shengling never agreed.

Chen Eryan once witnessed all this. Her memory was full of her brother, and there was no one else. She asked her brother why she had never found a girl to marry her. It was good that she had a sister-in-law, but her brother just touched her hair and said nothing.

As time passed, Jiang Shengling reached thirty years old and became one of the few bachelors in the village. Chen Eryan also grew up to be a graceful girl. The two of them lived alone, and some villagers suspected that they were husband and wife.

The villagers couldn't help but be curious and mentioned this matter in front of Chen Eryan. Chen Eryan found Jiang Shengling. It didn't matter whether his brother had found her sister-in-law, but she didn't want the villagers to misunderstand their relationship. In this way, the young man in the village would be discouraged by her, which seriously affected her future search for marriage.

Jiang Shengling glanced at Chen Eryan with an obscure look, as if he wanted to see something from Chen Eryan's eyes, but he turned his eyes away in disappointment and took the betrothal gift to Zhai's family to propose marriage the next morning, marrying Zhai's eldest daughter Zhai Chuyou.

This person is as beautiful as a flower and has a wealthy family. The villagers joked that Jiang Shengling was greedy for a big advantage. However, Zhai Chuyou had visited Jiang Shengling many times and kept apologizing for the reason for the pear. Her original intention was to throw it to Jiang Shengling, and might be picked up and eaten by Jiang Shengling, but accidentally hit him in the head.

If Zhai Chuyou had not mentioned it, Jiang Shengling would have forgotten about this matter. After marriage, he and Zhai Chuyou lived a happy life, and even pleased Zhai Chuyou a little, but Zhai Chuyou was a woman who was fond of the new and tired of the old.

Less than half a year after they got married, Zhai Chuyou took the other man home and hugged in front of Jiang Shengling. Although Jiang Shengling couldn't stand it, he did not stop them. In the end, he fell ill under the sorrow of this kind of life and died soon after.

Afterwards, Chen Eryan packed up his brother's belongings and found a letter in the relics. This was Jiang Shengling's contract to sell his body back then.The above statement reads that Jiang Shengling wants to take care of Xu's daughter for the rest of his life. When Chen Eryan reaches his prime, Jiang Shengling should also have the ability to make a living. He wants to marry Chen Eryan as his wife at this time. In other words, Jiang Shengling is Chen Eryan's child adoptive husband.

Chen Eryan seemed to suddenly understand what his brother was trying to see from her eyes. He was observing whether Chen Eryan had feelings for him other than his relatives. If so, he would definitely marry Chen Eryan as promised, but if not, he would not limit Chen Eryan's happiness in his life.

Jiang Shengling thought that his sister was outside and fell in love with a young man from another family, so he naturally married Zhai Chuyou. Since his life after he sold him, it no longer belonged to him, and they all lived for his sister. As for whether Zhai Chuyou has feelings for him, it doesn't matter.

After learning everything, Chen Er burst into tears. She finished her brother's funeral in her heart, and then moved to a foreign land with her brother's belongings and never came back.
