Chapter 178: The Deputy General Returns to the City



Chapter 178: The Deputy General Returns to the City

The snow outside today was much lighter than yesterday. Jiang Li asked Nanny Zhu to take good care of Liang and Jing'er in the carriage.

A group of people and more than a dozen horses escorted a carriage and left Yanzhou City for Changsheng Island.

Upon learning that Jiang Li had finally left with her men, Mrs. Da quickly ordered people to go outside the house to find a doctor. Although the bleeding from the wound on her face had stopped, it had dragged on for nearly a day, and she was now disfigured and heartbroken.

At the same time, he hated Liang and Jiang Li to the core.

Deputy General Cheng received news of the incident in the mansion in the military camp, and rushed back to the city from the military camp overnight. Just as he entered the city gate, he happened to see Jiang Li and others leaving.

However, he had never seen Jiang Li, and the person riding the bicycle was so fast that he couldn't see clearly. Mo Ming felt empty in his heart, and he hurried back home without thinking too much.

As soon as the Cheng family invited the doctor back, Deputy General Cheng brought his men back to the mansion.

Cheng Yizhong rushed straight to the backyard without stopping. Passing by the messy backyard and two big pots scattered in the yard, what else did he not understand?

Yesterday, Lady Li sent someone to tell him a message, but he didn't believe it at first. He thought that no matter how brave his mother and Lady Da were, they couldn't really hurt Lady Liang and Lady Jing'er.

Seeing this scene, Cheng Yizhong was furious. He hurried back to the main courtyard of the eldest lady, but found that the courtyard was empty, not even the servants who usually served in the courtyard were there.

Cheng Yizhong felt that the situation was getting worse and hurried to the backyard.

From a distance, one could hear Da's wailing and howling, and his face instantly sank to the bottom of the valley.

"Damn Liang, mother, we can't just let this go."

boom! ! !

As soon as Da finished speaking, the door was thrown open, followed by Cheng Yizhong's furious response: "Then what do you want to do?"

The servants in the hall were so frightened when they saw the master returning home that they all knelt down.

Cheng Kang and Cheng Yi shuddered all over and took two steps back unconsciously.

Da was so frightened that she held her neck. The doctor was still applying medicine to the wound on her face. She quickly took up a handkerchief with both hands to cover her face, fearing that the master would see her ugly appearance.

Old Madam Cheng was not in a much better condition. Her heart had been beating non-stop since yesterday, and this time she was so frightened that she almost fainted.

But when she looked carefully and saw that it was her son who had returned, the old lady quickly wiped away her tears, happily stood up and cried, "Son, you are finally back. If you hadn't come back, I would have lost my life."

Mrs. Da noticed that Cheng Yizhong's gloomy face did not ease at all. She was so scared that she dared not say a word and signaled the doctor to leave first.

Cheng Yizhong lowered his eyes coldly, glancing at his mother who threw herself into his arms and cried. He clenched his fists tightly, trying his best to suppress the anger in his chest.

"Yeah!"

Old Madam Cheng, who was crying breathlessly, nodded repeatedly, and soon realized that her son was abnormal and raised her tearful eyes.

"You, you don't believe me? I'm your mother, how dare you not believe what I say!"

"Heh~" Cheng Yizhong's eyes were cold. He first glanced at my mother, then glared at the pair of concubine's children who had shrank behind the crowd in front of him, and Da who was covering her face with a handkerchief.

"If I hadn't seen the two big pots in the yard with my own eyes, I might have believed what you said."

Ding~

Madam Cheng looked away guiltily, but soon she straightened up again, relying on her status as an elder. "Why? In your eyes, everything I do is wrong?"

Cheng Yizhong couldn't see any remorse on his mother's face, and he felt completely disappointed.

At this time, a confidant came to report hurriedly: "Deputy General Cheng, I just asked the gatekeeper, and he said that before you returned home, the eldest lady and Master Jin had already left the mansion with Lady Li from Changsheng Island."

Upon hearing this, Deputy General Cheng quickly thought of the carriage he encountered outside the city gate and the dozen or so horsemen accompanying it.

He was immediately filled with regret. If he had known earlier, he should have chased after them to find out what was going on so that he could capture his wife and son.

"The island master also left you a message. If you can't handle the affairs in the mansion, be prepared to divorce the lady." The confidant almost held his breath and lowered his voice when he said the last two words.

He was afraid that the deputy general would get angry and draw his sword against him.

Deputy General Cheng did not expect that the lady would be so resolute this time. He closed his eyes in pain.

He knew very well that the Madam and Jing'er had suffered great injustice this time. It was his fault that he failed to protect his wife and children, but things were not the worst.

"Deputy General, the island master also said that if the divorce is settled, the Second Young Master and the Fourth Young Lady will also follow the First Lady and leave the Cheng Mansion."

Rumble!

The last sentence reported by the confidant was the most fatal blow to Deputy General Cheng.

Jing'er and Yi'er are Cheng Yi Zhong's legitimate son and daughter, and the eldest lady has pushed things to this point.

When Madam Cheng and Mrs. Da heard the message, they were stunned at first, but soon they could not hide the joy that flashed in their eyes.

Did they succeed in driving Liang and her son out of the Cheng Mansion?

Happiness comes too suddenly!

Especially Mrs. Da, she couldn't help but sneer at Mrs. Liang's stupidity in her heart. A divorced woman with two children really thought that her life would be better after leaving the Cheng family.

When she becomes the eldest lady of the Cheng family in the future, she will definitely find an opportunity to show off in front of her and make Liang angry to death.

Unexpectedly, Da, who had just fallen into a joyful mood, looked up and met the fierce gaze of Deputy General Cheng. She shuddered with fear: "Old, Master~"

"Shut up, you vicious woman!"

Along with Cheng Yizhong's angry shouts and the cold whistle of drawing a long sword, Da was so scared that she even forgot to cover her face. She hurriedly stood up and walked behind the chair, shrinking back and shaking her head.

"It's none of my business, it's really none of my business, master, don't kill me." Da never expected that the master would be so angry about Liang.

Old Madam Cheng was also startled. Seeing this, she immediately put her hands on her hips and blocked the chair: "Why, do you still want to kill me in the mansion?"

Cheng Kang and Cheng Hua, brother and sister, were almost frightened to death by Laozi's rage. They had never seen Laozi so angry before, and they all hid behind Dashi.

"Oh, kill me?" Cheng Yizhong was almost laughing at his foolish mother. "I'm just a servant, mother, why are you protecting me so much?"

"Even if I kill him, it's to vent my son's anger. When you wanted to steam Jin Ge'er alive yesterday, did you ever consider that he was your own grandson?"

Madam Cheng was choked by the question for a moment, but she quickly straightened her neck and said, "I was deceived by the wizard. When did I ever think of harming Brother Jin? I only invited the wizard for his own good."

"Yes, yes, master, mother is right. We never thought of killing Jin'er. It was all a misunderstanding. We were deceived." Da cried with tears in her eyes.

Cheng Yizhong was filled with disgust when he saw Madam Da. Not to mention how ugly Madam Da's face was, he wondered how he could have hurt Madam Da's heart so many times in the past for such a vicious concubine.
