Chapter 35 A late night visitor

 The visitor was Chen Ying.

After stepping over the threshold, he took a step forward.

As soon as the Cheng family saw him, they stood up and quietly moved closer to Old Madam Cheng, protecting her tightly behind them, and at this moment they were staring at Chen Ying closely.

"what you up to?!"

Cheng Qiuluo even grabbed the sword leaning against the table and held it across his body to stop him.

"We beat up your minions, and now the master comes again? Hasn't he caused enough trouble for us during the day?!"

"Qiu Luo."

Old Madam Cheng shook her head at her.

Since his grandmother had spoken, Cheng Qiuluo had no choice but to put down his sword, but the vigilance and alertness in his eyes did not diminish at all.

The thumb of his left hand rests on the guard of the sword, and his right hand holds the hilt, ready to draw the sword at any time.

Seeing this, Chen Ying sighed helplessly in his heart and simply stopped moving forward. He just faced Old Madam Cheng and bowed deeply.

"Junior meets old lady Cheng."

Except for Old Madam Cheng, the rest of the Cheng family looked at each other in bewilderment.

What kind of rules is this?

However, the next sentence surprised them even more.

After Chen Ying stood up, he changed direction and bowed to Meng.

"Meet the Master's wife."

Hearing this address, everyone in the Cheng family, except Old Madam Cheng, looked at Meng.

Even Meng herself didn't react.

"you..."

After being stunned for a while, Meng vaguely remembered something.

Over the years, the Marquis would receive a gift during every festival, and he would always say that it was sent by his apprentice, but he would never tell the person's name.

The Marquis had many disciples, so she didn't think about it carefully.

"It is not my wish that the people below offended the old lady and everyone today, but now there are many people's eyes and ears in Beihuang City, so I can only do that during the day."

As he said this, Chen Ying bowed and apologized.

"Please don't mind."

Old Madam Cheng asked the younger generations to disperse, then looked at Chen Ying and asked.

"Is your father all right?"

When talking about this, Chen Ying looked worried.

"After hearing what happened to the Cheng family, my father fainted in anger and has been bedridden ever since."

"Otherwise, father would certainly come to see you in person."

Hearing this, Old Madam Cheng sighed slightly.

"Is it serious? What does the doctor say?"

Chen Ying lowered his head slightly and answered in a low voice.

"The doctor said that it was hyperactivity of liver yang and that I needed to stay in bed and rest."

After saying that, he changed the subject.

"A lot of people have sneaked into Beihuang City in recent days. They must be coming for the Cheng family. Old Madam should make plans as soon as possible."

Old Madam Cheng held the cane in one hand and placed the other on the table, looking down and thinking for a long time.

"Let's set it for tomorrow."

"Okay, I will go back and prepare now. I will take my leave now."

After saying that, Chen Ying bowed to her again, put on the hood of his cloak again, covered himself tightly, and turned to leave.

The women of the Cheng family looked at each other, and finally it was Meng who spoke.

"Mother-in-law, what did you mean just now?"

Watching Chen Ying's back disappear into the darkness, Mrs. Cheng's face showed a look of reminiscence.

"Five years ago, the Chen family's case of embezzling military pay was indeed suspicious. The Chen family was framed back then."

"You all should know that the Chen family is the right-hand man of the Pingnan Marquisate, and the goal of the person behind the scenes has always been to drag the Cheng family into the water."

Talking about this past event, Mrs. Cheng's expression became heavy.

"By the time they discovered it, the Chen family was already unable to escape. The Cheng family had no choice but to expose them first."

"After the entire Chen family was arrested, Cheng He entered the palace overnight with the golden medal of immunity from death granted by the previous emperor, and asked the emperor to spare Chen Ying's life. Later, before he was executed, he secretly replaced the Chen family with death row prisoners."

Hearing this, sisters-in-law Meng and Wang looked at each other.

Chen Ying was actually saved by the Marquis using the golden medal of immunity from death?

But the tyrant said that he spared Chen Ying's life because of the Chen family's achievements on the battlefield!

How shameless!

Later, the Dog Emperor praised Pingnan Houfu for his ability to distinguish right from wrong, his deep understanding of justice, and his initiative to expose the crimes of his subordinates, saying that he was truly a role model for all the ministers.

If the Chen family was really wiped out, one can imagine how much Chen Ying would hate the Cheng family.

Perhaps, even if the Marquis did not take out the golden medal of immunity from death, the dog emperor would still spare Chen Ying's life.

After all, hatred is the sharpest knife!

Soon, Old Madam Cheng came back to her senses from the past and looked at her eldest granddaughter beside her.

"Qiu Yun will take Cheng Feng and the others out of the city tomorrow."

Cheng Qiuyun subconsciously wanted to refuse.

"But..."

Old Madam Cheng clapped her hands.

"Go ahead. As long as you are here, those people will have some concerns after all."

Seeing the calmness and composure on her grandmother's face, Cheng Qiuyun's uneasy heart was gradually calmed down, and she nodded slowly.

"Yes, granddaughter understands."

…

The next morning, just after daybreak, Cheng Qiuyun took Cheng Feng and others out of the city gate.

Wu Meng and Feng Shan also followed behind.

After they were a few miles away from Beihuang City and made sure that there were no spies following them, they stopped.

Wu Meng and Feng Shan sincerely thanked Cheng Qiuyun.

"Thank you, Miss, for helping us pass the message home. Once we pick up our families, we will come back to serve the Cheng family!"

After the two of them left, Cheng Qiuyun looked at Cheng Feng and the others.

"I will take Cheng Xin and Cheng Sen to the border. The three of you will stay here. After the mission is accomplished, continue to stay by Grandmother's side."

…

In Beihuang City, Yu An woke up and was dazed when his mother covered his face with a warm handkerchief, which instantly sobered him up.

The little guy sat on the stool obediently, drinking milk from the small bowl.

As he drank, he raised his little head, with a half-circle mustache on the corner of his mouth, and looked around with his big eyes blinking. Finally, he realized something was wrong.

"Where's my eldest aunt?"

Old Madam Cheng helped him wipe the corners of his mouth.

"Your aunt is busy with something."

The little guy nodded, and sensibly stopped asking questions, continuing to drink from the bowl.

In modern times, Anlu was awakened by the ringing of a phone call.

"Xiaoxiao? What's wrong?"

Someone said something over there.

"Boss, something happened to my relatives back home, so I need to take two days off."

Hearing the urgency in her tone, An Luo quickly sat up.

"Is it serious? Is there anything I can do to help?"

There was a pause, then he spoke.

"Thank you for your concern, boss, but I can do it myself. I don't need it for now."

Anlu nodded.

"Don't take two days. I'll give you a week off so you can take care of your family affairs first."

"Okay, thank you, boss."

After hanging up the phone, Anlu couldn't sleep anymore, so he simply opened Zaizai's live broadcast room.

As soon as I came in, I was so touched by the scene of the cubs drinking milk.

She was so excited that she bought several more cans of milk powder.
