Liang Qiu reported to his men on the investigation of Uncle Dong, and indeed found some clues. The 50,000 yuan received by Uncle Dong was given by Xu Jinzhong. According to the investigation results, Xu Jinzhong originally made a living by blacksmithing, but he did notA few years later, he became an official, and because of this, Xu Jinzhong's official career became smoother and smoother, until he became Shang Fangling, who is now in charge of weapons. Uncle Dong did not know where the weapons were transported.As Cheng Shaoshang gradually recovered, what was waiting for her was the sudden arrival of letters. In this pile of letters, she could only recognize three or four characters, and her level of knowledge was comparable to that of an illiterate.Xiao Yuanyi tried every means to train her daughter to be a well-educated and well-educated lady, but Cheng Shaoshang had a poor foundation and was slack and passive in studies, which gave her a headache.Although Uncle Dong could escape the death penalty, he could not escape the crime of living. In the end, he was sent to the frontier. Before leaving, he could go to the Cheng family to say goodbye.

Ge Shi constantly criticized Cheng Shaoshang's arrival, saying that he did not respect his elders and that Cheng Shaoshang did not look like a legitimate daughter.As soon as he finished speaking, Ge's daughter Cheng Shu slowly came in to say hello. Ge's face suddenly lost all emotion. Cheng Shu said that she was late because her wife was late in class.Xiao Yuanyi looked at Cheng Shu's appearance, showing everyone's style in every gesture, but he was introverted and not good at words.However, Xiao Yuanyi's heart-shaped appearance is exactly what she wants in a girl.After hearing Uncle Dong's cry outside the door, a group of women filed out. Unexpectedly, Uncle Dong became angry because he refused to save Mrs. Cheng, and even the elders scolded him inside. He occasionally revealed that Mr. ChengTai disliked Xiao Yuanyi, and Ge Shi deliberately prevented Cheng Shaoshang from reading and literacy, and even greedily swallowed the money Cheng Shi sent home.These words made Mrs. Cheng panic, and made Ge Shi blush with anxiety and refute Uncle Dong's empty slander.Ling Buyi witnessed the whole process from a high place. The Liang brothers reported to him that Xu Jinzhong's whereabouts were unknown and that he had no family, wife or children to check. Finally, at Ling Buyi's signal, he thought of the only place to go.

Uncle Dong's matter came to an end for the time being, and Mrs. Cheng asked about Ge's main house, but Ge Shi still used other reasons to prevaricate Mrs. Cheng.Although Ge pretended to be obedient in front of Mrs. Cheng, she cursed the second master Cheng Cheng as soon as he returned to the main room.After all, in the eyes of everyone, Mrs. Cheng had three sons. The eldest brother fought as a general, and the third brother studied and became an official. Only the second son, Cheng Cheng, spent all day reading slips and accomplishing nothing.The more Ge Shi thought about it, the angrier he became, and he threw the letter into the brazier in anger. Fortunately, his daughter Cheng Shuo appeared in time to protect her father, but this made Ge Shi dissatisfied.Under Xiao Yuanyi's urging, Cheng Shaoshang bent down at his desk and raised a lamp to read. He only felt that the pressure doubled. In the past, the lack of food and clothing was due to Jun Gu and others making things difficult, but now his mother has to face corporal punishment when she returns.Listening to Cheng Shaoshang's confession, Xiao Yuanyi's cold face once again showed a complicated expression. She was determined to expose what Cheng Shaoshang had done before, saying bluntly that such behavior was bad and would surely harm the entire family if not restrained.

Cheng Shaoshang felt that he had done nothing wrong regarding Uncle Dong, because after his parents left the Cheng family for more than ten years, Cheng Shaoshang insisted on using small tricks to deal with Ge, and Cheng Shaoshang knew that Xiao Yuanyi would not let it goGe Shi has been bullied to the extreme, and he must be planning something now.So Cheng Shaoshang felt suspicious again, so he took the initiative to find Ge and deliberately revealed that he had a bad relationship with his mother, implying that if she wanted to continue living in the main house, she should use the excuse of being an heir.Sure enough, Ge Shi listened to Cheng Shaoshang and relied on the nonsense of Mrs. Cheng's preference for ghosts and the old fairy's assertion that the main house was beneficial to the son's health, so he decided to continue living in the main house until he was pregnant and gave birth to his son.Mrs. Cheng originally had a bad relationship with Xiao Yuanyi, not to mention that the matter concerned the heirs, so she readily agreed.Because of this, Ge thought he had the limelight and mocked Xiao Yuanyi for being betrayed by his biological daughter.But she didn't know that Cheng Shaoshang guessed that the reason why Xiao Yuanyi didn't compete for the main house must be related to the imperial reward, and he thought he would have a new place to live.

After seeing through Cheng Shaoshang's thoughts, Xiao Yuanyi said nothing on the surface, but she became worried about him in her heart. Xiao Yuanyi felt that Cheng Shaoshang was getting further and further away from a well-educated and sensible girl.Soon a chamberlain came to the Cheng Mansion to read out the imperial edict. Because Cheng Shi had repeatedly made military exploits, he was granted the title of Marquis of Guan Nei, the fief of Quling, hundreds of acres of fertile land, and dozens of boxes of treasures and jewelry.Mrs. Cheng was overjoyed and praised her son profusely. Cheng Shi knew that his second brother liked to read, so he gave the letter to him and let Mrs. Cheng choose the jewelry he liked.When Ge Shi heard that the emperor had rewarded him with a large house, Xiao Yuanyi did not deny it and claimed that he would move the whole family to a new house. Only Ge Shi stayed in the old house until she gave birth to her son.Cheng Shi and Xiao Yuanyi sang in harmony, and Zhijiao Ge made a speechless rebuttal. After all, she made the oath on the pretext of a god, and even Mrs. Cheng saw it.

Ge Shi now understood that Cheng Shaoshang's original intention of looking for him was because he had to stay in the old house now that he had a new house.The more Ge Shi thought about it, the angrier he became, and then he came to Cheng Shaoshang's residence to get angry.It's just that Cheng Shaoshang didn't take Ge's words to heart and regarded them purely as air.After Ge Shi vented his anger, Cheng Shao Shang Zeshi pretended not to know anything and made Ge Shi angry in just a few words.Xiao Yuanyi saw Cheng Shaoshang's trick and simply took advantage of it, so that the situation would not be ugly.
