Episode 4: Cheng Shaoshang finds it difficult to please his mother

The Cheng family’s mansion was not large in size. There were only two corridors from the side courtyard to the main house. Xiao Yuanyi took Qingyuan and a group of martial maids after walking a few steps and heard Ge’s sharp curses. This place was originally the second master’s study room, but now it has become chaotic. The slips on the floor have nowhere to go. Cheng Chengsheng sits in front of the case helplessly, letting Geshi’s words humiliate him.

Those old sayings that are repeated over and over again are nothing more than the fact that when Ge married Cheng Cheng, the Cheng family was in dire straits. Cheng Cheng had long been tired of hearing this, and his usually boring temperament always became unbearable, and he began to think of divorcing his wife. However, these words made Ge become furious and started beating him. Xiao Yuanyi immediately showed up and scolded him, finding an excuse and asking Qing Yuan to take Cheng Cheng away first.

Seeing his sister-in-law suddenly appear, Cheng Cheng felt embarrassed, aggrieved and grateful. On the other hand, Xiao Yuanyi felt equally uncomfortable when she saw her second brother like this. He was only a few years younger than Cheng Shi, and looked like an old man. His eyes were full of haggardness, which made her hate Ge Shi so much that her teeth itched.

Ge was still trying to fight, but Xiao Yuanyi slapped him with such force that he was knocked down. Qing Yuan had already supported Cheng Cheng and quickly retreated. In situations like this in the past, Ge Shi had to make a few more fuss, but the battle in front of her made her a little scared. The docile, kind, dignified and meticulous lady in her impression turned cold-faced, as if in the next second You can peel her skin and cramp her.

Taking this opportunity, Xiao Yuanyi mentioned the old and new grudges to the Ge family, ruthlessly exposed the other party’s true colors, and threatened to notify the Ge family to accept the divorce letter. Ge was shocked when he heard what he said, and he retorted vigorously, but he didn’t expect Xiao Yuanyi to mention the past again. It turns out that when Xiao Yuanyi was about to give birth, Ge Shi used the name of the old god to claim that the fetus would be kept in the main house to ward off evil spirits for Mrs. Cheng.

At first, Cheng Shi and his mother argued hard, but an imperial edict came, requiring Cheng Shi to assemble his army and set off immediately. Xiao Yuanyi gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, and finally decided to leave his daughter to his aunt, and followed her husband to the battlefield with her young son in her arms. Thinking about it again today, Xiao Yuanyi can still feel the pain of separation. She ordered Ge family to be grounded on the spot to avoid ruining the auspicious day of moving, and then walked out without looking back.

Ling Buyi found a suspicious shop in the city, so he led people to surround it, and relied on clues to find Xu Jinzhong, who had been missing for many days. Who knew that the other party would rather commit suicide by taking poison than reveal any information. The birthmark on his neck caught Ling Buyi’s attention. He suddenly remembered that he had witnessed this man switching weapons when he was young, and ordered his men to dig three feet into the ground to find clues. And the news of Xu Jinzhong’s death must not be disclosed to the outside world.

It had only been a few days since the last visit to the Ge family. Grandpa Ge came all the way with his eldest daughter-in-law. Even though he had traveled a long distance and his face was full of weathered color, he still could not hide his gentle and polite manner. Everyone in the Cheng family came forward to greet her, especially Cheng Shu, who saw Aunt Ge and immediately threw herself into her arms and burst into tears.

Seeing everyone surrounding Cheng Shu, paying attention to and comforting her emotional changes, Cheng Shaoshang leaned against the edge of the porch without saying a word, trying to hide himself in the corner until everyone exchanged greetings and walked into the inner hall. Xiao Yuanyi had no time to take care of her daughter. In a hurry, she had to organize the reception banquet and arrange the guest room.

Grandpa Ge was a highly respected and reasonable person. He knew that he had failed to teach his daughter well, so he took the initiative to apologize to his parents and made no complaints about the divorce. However, Mrs. Ge didn’t repent, and even Aunt Ge couldn’t stand it. She accused her of never fulfilling her filial piety and only knew how to fool around day after day. Seeing the old man Ge who was in his late 70s and braved the wind and snow to come here, he actually Not even a trace of guilt.

On the other hand, Mrs. Ge was ashamed of the whole Cheng family, and she burst into tears as she spoke. Cheng Cheng also cried uncontrollably. Although he usually hated Mr. Ge, he had been loyal to this kind old man who helped the weak and cared for the poor since he was a child. It’s all about admiration. Most of the time I married Ge for the first time because of Mrs. Ge. I secretly felt that I would be satisfied with becoming the father-in-law, but I didn’t want to end up in this situation.

Cheng Shaoshang wanted to avoid the disputes of her elders and return to her small courtyard alone. Unexpectedly, Xiao Yuanyi asked her to meet Grandpa Ge and her aunt to avoid being rude. Following Xiao Yuanyi to the side hall, Cheng Shaoshang saw Aunt Ge and Cheng Shu wiping away tears. Xiao Yuanyi sat down as if he hadn’t seen them before and said hello with a smile.

The two sides knelt opposite each other and exchanged a few words. When Cheng Shaoshang heard Aunt Ge’s sincere teachings to Cheng Shu, he was instantly in awe of her, so he took the initiative to hand over a glass of buttermilk. But because of this, Cheng Shaoshang’s behavior made Xiao Yuanyi dissatisfied, thinking that she had stolen Cheng Shu’s limelight, and severely reprimanded her in private.

Cheng Shaoshang couldn’t understand Xiao Yuanyi’s good intentions, and even felt that Cheng Shu was honest and kind in his words and deeds in the other person’s heart, and he seemed to be quite calculated no matter what he did. So after what happened that night came to mind, Cheng Shaoshang felt extremely lonely. She did not have the wisdom to replace her parents, but she could clearly feel the coldness of her biological parents.

The next day, Old Mrs. Ge left with his family. The Cheng family couldn’t stay, so they had to go out as a family to see him off, and then sent him to the outside of the city, still reluctant to leave. The parting scene was very touching. Cheng Shu took Aunt Ge and cherished each other with tears. Grandpa Ge and Cheng Cheng also spoke passionately. Only Cheng Shaoshang seemed like an outsider, standing beside him lonely, watching his mother treat Cheng Shu as if she were her own child. Her daughter comforted her with gentle words, but never used them on herself.
