The magistrate's office is adjacent to the general's mansion. The guards escorted Mrs. Cheng back first. Magistrate Xu also wanted to follow and express condolences to Cheng's mansion, so he only hurriedly asked the common people who were escorting the two traffickers a few words about their experience, and then ordered the traffickers to be taken away.
He was taken to the prison and guarded, and he took a piece of silver as a reward to the people and sent them out. He thought that General Cheng would be back soon and might ask about what happened, so he left Ding Hao behind and took him straight to General Cheng.
Mansion.
Mrs. Cheng was sitting cross-legged in the Hall of Heroes at the foot of the White Tiger Mountain, crying her heart out. Her daughter-in-law had brought her precious grandson back. The old lady was overjoyed when she saw her. She held her grandson in her arms and made love to her for a while. Her tears had just stopped.
Suddenly, I remembered that if this child could not be found, his flesh and blood would be separated from him. My heart felt sore and painful. I was so scared that my tears still fell down.
Magistrate Xu arrived and had no choice but to continue to persuade: "Old lady, please don't cry. You see, the young master is sensible. He loves grandma. When you cry, the young master will cry with you."
Mrs. Cheng felt sorry for her grandson. When she heard this, she quickly wiped her tears and coaxed the child with a forced smile: "Good grandson, good grandson, grandma don't cry, grandma don't cry..."
Magistrate Xu said attentively: "The young master of your house was kidnapped by human traffickers. Fortunately, he was rescued by this person. The trafficker has been jailed by me. The man who saved the young master has also been brought to you by the official. I don't know.
Does the old lady have anything else to ask him?"
He talks about the old lady as a queen, which is not just flattery. Mrs. Cheng really has the title of Taijun. In the Song Dynasty, the wife of a fourth-rank official was a county queen, and the wife of a fifth-rank official was a county queen. The names of their mother's towns were all added with the title of Taijun.
.Cheng Shixiong was General Guangyuan and a high-ranking member of the imperial court. Naturally, his mother was an old lady with a title.
When Old Mrs. Cheng heard that the pleasant-looking young man in front of her was the great benefactor who saved her grandson, she said gratefully: "I have thanked you little brother. You are the great benefactor of our Cheng family. Please sit down, benefactor."
"
Ding Haoqian smiled and said: "There is no place for a villain in front of the old lady."
Magistrate Xu said: "The old lady is very charitable. Just sit down if you are asked. Don't be too restrained."
Ding Hao apologized and sat down on the next chair. Mrs. Cheng asked him what happened. Ding Hao narrated the story of rescuing Mr. Cheng, and the old lady and Mrs. Cheng were shocked and confused.
Afraid, I will inevitably shed tears again.
Ding Hao was helpless when he saw this. He had an idea and decided to talk about what happened to the young master of the Cheng family during this period. This way, he caught the attention of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Ding Hao vividly told how the young master was doing.
When asking for sweets, she used her mother's expressive movements to make Old Mrs. Cheng and Mrs. Cheng smile. The old lady was so happy that she kissed her grandson's little face and praised her repeatedly: "My grandson is very smart. He will be very smart in the future."
He must be a kid with great potential."
At this moment, a horse neighed, and a tall man in military uniform rushed into the hall with a gust of cold wind. The leaves on his armor were rustling, and the boots under his feet were clanging. He didn't squint.
As soon as he saw Mrs. Cheng, she asked anxiously: "Mom, what happened to our family's wealth?"
On the way here, Ding Hao heard from Magistrate Xu that the young master he rescued was the son of General Cheng. When he saw this tiger-like general, he was not the same one he saw when he first entered the city.
The living treasure Taiwei who spoke of Han Xin.
When the old lady saw her son, her face suddenly darkened, and she snorted coldly: "What kind of official position are you a beast? Or some kind of general? Your own flesh and blood were almost abducted and sold."
Although Cheng Shixiong had a high official position, he was a very filial man. When Cheng's mother scolded him like this in front of outsiders, he just stood with his hands crossed and a smile on his face, but he murmured without daring to say anything. Until his mother finished scolding him,
Seeing his son sleeping soundly in his mother's arms, Cheng Shixiong let out a long breath and said happily: "What my mother taught me is that thanks to Mr. Xu for finding my son in time, Cheng is really grateful."
Magistrate Xu quickly waved his hand and said: "I don't dare to take credit for being a low-ranking official. It was this little brother Ding Haoding who rescued Young Master Ling."
"Oh?" Cheng Shixiong turned around and focused on Ding Hao with a pair of electric eyes. He looked up and down, then slightly cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, little brother, for rescuing the dog. Thank you very much, Cheng."
Ding Hao stood up in a hurry to avoid the ceremony, even saying that he didn't dare to accept it. On the side, Old Mrs. Cheng saw that her son was a little perfunctory, but she suddenly got angry: "What is there that you don't dare to accept? If it weren't for little brother Ding, our Cheng family would have lost its incense and would have been cut off."
Genmiao. My old lady will become the eternal sinner of the Cheng family. She will not have the shame to meet the ancestors of the Cheng family even if she dies. If this poor good grandson is kidnapped, her eyes will be gouged out and her limbs will be amputated by unscrupulous scoundrels.
If you act like a beggar, you won’t hurt the old lady to death..."
Mrs. Cheng shed tears again as she spoke. She picked up her grandson and walked to Ding Hao. She pretended to kneel down and said, "My benefactor is sitting here. Although he was a poor and humble slave at the beginning, he is now a great official."
My son, I am a very arrogant person, so of course I cannot worship you. I am an ordinary citizen, and I don’t have many sayings. I am here to kneel down and thank you. May the Buddha bless my benefactor to live a long life and have endless blessings..."
Ding Hao didn't dare to let her kneel down, so he rushed forward to hold her up. General Cheng was blushing with embarrassment, and his dark face turned purple. In fact, he had no other ideas. He knew who Ding Hao was just by looking at her clothes.
As an ordinary commoner, it is true that this man has shown great kindness to the Cheng family, but how can he express his gratitude? All he needs to do is give him a heavy reward of a hundred gold, but he doesn't know that he will anger his mother.
Mrs. Cheng felt uncomfortable hearing her mother-in-law's words. She had lost all her incense and become a sinner of the Cheng family for all eternity. She would not have the shame to see her ancestors even after she died... Who are you scolding? She is the one who offered the incense to her child.
It was lost when I was young. My mother-in-law clearly meant that Sang scolded Huai and told her to listen to it.
Mrs. Cheng is the daughter of the Tang family in Pingyuan and comes from a wealthy family, while Old Mrs. Cheng is from a farmer's family. Their usual conversation and behavior are very different. How can they have the same temperament? Old Mrs. Cheng believes in Buddhism.
Mrs. Cheng believed it; Mrs. Cheng was born in a farmer's family. Although she is now the mother of a general, her living habits are still those of an old rural lady, while Mrs. Cheng is exactly like a lady from a wealthy family.
Mrs. Cheng had not been able to conceive for a long time, and her mother-in-law was so impatient that she repeatedly encouraged her son to take concubines. General Cheng did not dare to mention it to his wife. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had been fighting over this matter for an unknown amount of time. Poor Cheng Dachong was a tiger-like figure outside, but when he returned home, he
I suffered countless quarrels between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
When the little enemy Cheng Fugui was born, a major issue between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was finally settled. However, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had conflicts again over taking care of their grandson. The old lady doted on her grandson, and she would not deny anything he wanted.
The grandson likes to eat maltose, but Mrs. Cheng doesn't let the child eat it, so she secretly feeds it like a thief.
The old lady felt that she was wronged by her mother-in-law, and Mrs. Cheng felt that her mother-in-law was rarely seen by people in the village and could not speak to her, and she was also filled with bitterness. The two had old and new grudges for who knows how long, and today's daughter-in-law is very
She wanted to take her child to Sanqing Temple to offer incense, but she lost her child. Mrs. Cheng waited for her son to arrive, and now that she had someone to support her, there was no reason why these old things wouldn't happen all at once.
Although Mrs. Cheng was ashamed and annoyed, but if she thought about it carefully, today's fact was really a catastrophic disaster. If her son was really lost, even if her mother-in-law didn't tell her, she wouldn't be able to survive. This benefactor should kneel down and worship her.
Immediately, he stood up with a red face and said with shame: "Mother-in-law, everything is my daughter-in-law's fault. Don't be angry. My daughter-in-law thanked our benefactor on behalf of our Cheng family."
After Mrs. Cheng finished speaking, she knelt down to Ding Hao. When General Cheng heard what his wife said, he was relieved and said: "Yes, yes, yes, mother, don't be angry. Kneel down. Come and thank your benefactor."
After General Cheng said this, he knelt on the ground with a bang and knocked on the ground with his iron helmet, making three "dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang."
He turned his head and ignored him.
Ding Hao panicked and rushed to help him. He hurriedly helped General Cheng and his wife up. Before he could say a few words, another woman's voice outside the door hurriedly shouted: "Aunt, my rich brother has been found."
No?"
Following the sound, a young girl burst into the hall. This girl wore a fox fur collar and had a face as beautiful as jade. The two of them matched each other, making it look crystal clear. However, her graceful and picturesque face was full of anxiety at this time.
color.
When Ding Hao saw this girl, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. The hairs all over his body stood up suddenly, and he cried secretly: "Oh my god, how can this person be the girl from Puji Temple?"
