After hearing what the spy said, the eldest son of the He family slammed the teacup in his hand heavily on the table: "The second daughter of the Cheng family is just a commoner, and her mother's family is from a merchant family. How can she be called a daughter? The real daughter of the Cheng family is bullied. Not to mention that she has been forcibly taking the things of the eldest daughter of the first wife, but the eldest daughter of the first wife is also bullied by the Ge family when she goes to the Ge family. How can this be justified?"

"Father, how could there be such evil people today who could do such a cruel thing to a powerless child?" He Jia Erlang also sneered.

"The Cheng family is really lively. The fourth lady was left at home as a pawn for Madam Cheng to sow discord between her husband and her aunt. She also knows that the wife is vicious and the aunt is unkind, but she still kept her daughter. I'm afraid that Madam Xiao didn't want her daughter to live."

It is true that He Jiasanlang is a scholar, but the Qinghe Cui family is known as the Cui family with changing emperors but permanent ones. Naturally, what he learned in Qinghe is much more than the Bailushan family which has been famous since the previous dynasty.

……

He Yong looked expressionlessly at the men who were so angry that they said something irresponsible: "If people like the Cheng family fall into my hands, it would be too easy for them to be cut into pieces."

After the generals and the young masters had finished their rage, the spy continued, "There is another thing. Madam Cheng Si was separated from her parents when she was born, and the Cheng family has not registered her household registration until now."

"Where are the twin brothers of the fourth lady of the Cheng family?"

"All the sons of the Cheng family are on the list."

He Yong had fought in the battlefield for many years and had seen all kinds of military generals' families, but it was the first time he had seen a mother as cruel and calculating as Xiao Yuanyi, who even schemed for her own daughter, and a father as confused as Cheng Shi.

"A son can follow his parents to fight everywhere without worrying about getting hurt, but a daughter has been left at home for so many years without any care. There are wars all day long in the border areas, and they have never even come back to care about their daughter. Even if Zimu is destined to be with her, I will include her in my He family tree."

"Father is right. All branches and sub-branches of our He family are sons. Zimu doesn't have any cousins, let alone nieces."

"Let this little girl accompany Zimu."

He Yong nodded and thought that the Cheng family was really a great family who was fooled by a young lady from a poor family. You know, he had five sons before he had a little daughter.

The Cheng family is good at treating their sons’ lives as their lives and they must keep them by their side and teach them well, but they treat their daughters’ lives as not their lives and they can discard them at will and use them to fight for their own future and reputation.

Mrs. He, the concubine in Qichi Garden, pushed open the door gently with her three daughters-in-law and Zimu. They all looked reluctant when they saw the little girl still sleeping on the bed.

The fourth young master's wife of the He family was at her most sentimental at this moment. The normally heroic General Suifu couldn't help shedding tears at this moment: "My dear aunt, this child is still alive thanks to your help. This child is obviously the same age as my dear aunt, but he looks only about five years old."

"Yes, I didn't expect that the child would be so thin. It's really heartbreaking." Mrs. He touched Shao Shang's forehead with her hand, and felt relieved when she felt that the unconscious Shao Shang no longer had a high fever.

The Second Young Master's wife looked at Shao Shang and shook her head, then said to Zimu, "Aunt, I'm afraid this child needs to be taken good care of. It happens that my sister-in-law's family has been practicing medicine for generations. I will write a letter today and ask my mother to send some tonics and medicinal recipes."

"I would like to thank Auntie on behalf of Shao Shang."

The eldest young lady's wife suddenly asked, "Aunt, have you sent someone to notify the Cheng family? Why hasn't anyone come in such a long time?"

Zimu said helplessly, "Mother, sisters-in-law, don't worry. I was afraid that the old woman would not tell the truth to the master, so I sent someone to send a message to the Cheng family early. I snatched Shao Shang away in the morning, and it's already evening, but the Cheng family still has no news, and they haven't even sent an army to question him."

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience fell silent, and everyone cursed the Cheng family in their hearts.

He Zhaojun thought that her father, brothers and two sisters-in-law had just returned, and her fourth sister-in-law was now pregnant, which was the perfect time for her and her fourth brother to reunite.

"My two sisters-in-law and three brothers just came back. They must be tired from the family banquet and visiting Shaoshang. I'm here. You can go back and rest first."

Of course, Zimu also did not forget his mother who loved his father very much: "Mom, my father didn't care much about anything other than the war. Now that my father has just returned, I have to help him clean up. Don't worry, Yuechan and Fu's mother will take good care of Shaoshang."

Mrs. He and her three daughters-in-law nodded and left.

After Zimu sent his mother and three brothers and sisters-in-law away, he sat by the bed, looked at Cheng Shaoshang who was sleeping on the bed, and whispered: "If I knew you were living such a hard life, I should have remembered earlier and brought you to my side."

In the second half of the night, Cheng Shaoshang had a recurring high fever. Lianfang and Yuechan fed Cheng Shaoshang medicine again. Zimu stayed by his bedside since the second half of the night. She was afraid that she could not keep Cheng Shaoshang and let him die prematurely because of this cold.

The next morning, Cheng Shaoshang, who had been in a coma for two or three days, finally woke up. The first thing she saw was the luxurious and exquisite furnishings in the room. Then she changed into soft pajamas. Even in the cold winter, the room was not cold at all, and the quilt on her body was exceptionally warm.

Cheng Shaoshang sat on the bed for a long time before she noticed a woman she didn't recognize lying beside the bed. Judging from the furnishings in the room, this was not the Cheng home.

She gently patted the sleeping Zimu: "Sister? Sister? Sister?"

Zimu, who usually sleeps lightly, was too busy in the second half of the night, so he woke up only after Cheng Shaoshang called him several times.

Cheng Shaoshang saw that his sister, who was sleeping on the bed, finally woke up and continued to ask: "Sister, where is this? Why am I here?"

Zimu, who had just been awakened, blinked and waited for his brain to slowly wake up. As soon as he woke up, he saw Cheng Shaoshang sitting on the bed and had already woken up.

She went out and called for help: "Mother Fu is awake, Yuechan, please call the court doctor to come and check on her. Your daughter Fu Deng from the Lianfang family is awake."

The door opened and Lian Fang and Fu Deng rushed in. Only then did Cheng Shaoshang see that both of them had changed into clean clothes. Judging from the styles, they were probably the clothes of maids and servants, but the material looked much better.

"Lian Fang Fu Deng, where is this place? Who was that sister just now? Why am I here?"

Cheng Shaoshang did not think positively that his father and mother who had been fighting outside had returned. After all, she had only seen a few of the furnishings in this room the only time she went out with Ge before. These were simply not something that an ordinary military family like the Cheng family could afford.

Lian Fang quickly poured water for Cheng Shaoshang, "Young lady, we are at the residence of General He Yong. The one just now is General He's legitimate daughter and the Princess of Jinyang appointed by His Majesty. Yesterday, the young lady was unconscious and the Princess passed by the farm. It happened that Mrs. Li came to the farm to deliver firewood and we had a quarrel. Maybe the noise was too loud and attracted the Princess's attention. After the Princess found out, she rescued us."
