After being busy for a whole summer, she hurried home several times during this period, and she couldn't even fight anyone in person. General Cheng finally ended his tragic career in the field of summer training. Shao Shang saw that Mrs. Xiao was rubbing the sunburn ointment on her father's face and neck, and deliberately pretended to be disgusted: "Father, you are twenty years older than mother, if you meet strangers, you will be treated as father and daughter!"

    "Go, go, go! Your mother won't judge people so superficially by their appearance! A man should first look at character, then talent, and thirdly affection... Ah, Yuan Yi, right..."

    General Cheng looked at his wife in a pleasing manner. Mrs. Xiao didn't speak. In the blink of an eye, she glared at her husband with a half resentment.

    "Then what my father said last time is to choose a son-in-law only by looking at his face, how come he doesn't measure his character and responsibility when he comes to my father?!" Shao Shang suddenly realized this problem.

    "First, that Ling Buyi was not picked by your father, and your father is not so dignified. Second, your grandmother picked him (the grandfather) as a husband, which means that she is not superficial, and Ling Buyi picked you, which means that he very superficial, what does it have to do with your father." In terms of bickering, Cheng Shi was also a tyrant in the village back then, and he was invincible.

    Shao Shang thought about the deep meaning of the words, doesn't he mean that he has nothing but a face?! Her eyes were red with anger, and she left.

    General Cheng nodded his index finger at his daughter's back, turned his head and said to his wife: "This silly girl has no eyesight, you and I have a lot of things to say about the reunion after a long time, the sons all know how to avoid it, and she returns it. Pestle!"

    Mrs. Xiao said with a smile: "Niaoniao misses you. Zisheng gave her two good horses, which are really strong horses that travel thousands of miles a day. None of her brothers are allowed to touch, they are all reserved for you. Alas, Ah Song would be very envious."

Cheng Shi stroked his short beard proudly, his eyes full of love: " Niaoniao is a little naughty in her mouth, but she has a good heart, she knows filial piety and love, and is considerate to her father... This time I brought her a box of good things to add to her. In the dowry. Uh, I will also give you some points. Oh, by the way, there are also two small jars of suet cream from the Western Regions. Originally, General Han only gave me one jar. I used thirty ramie silk. Another can for silly girl. Autumn is dry, and when you two wipe your face and hands, it's stronger than the balsam in the capital."

    Mrs. Xiao smiled without saying a word. She thought that her husband's resentment towards Ge Shi would not go away for about a lifetime, but the two sisters couldn't favour one another over the other.

    "Your Excellency! Your Excellency is not good!" Madam Qingli rushed out of the door panting, "Niaoniao wants to give the two horses to the eldest son and the second son, saying that he will not give it to you!"

    Cheng Shi slapped the table and was furious: "This unfilial girl! Yuan Yi, I'll give you the two cans of suet ointment. If you wipe one can and throw the other, it looks like we are arrogant!"

    Mrs. Xiao leaned on the desk and shook her shoulders, smiling sullenly.
    ...

Since Cheng Shi was back, the belated engagement banquet had to be made up. Mrs. Xiao knew the benefits and did not dare to let Cheng Cha go. She personally purchased drinks, dishes, fruits and vegetables, as well as the cooks borrowed from Wanjia, which was very rich. Sure enough, the emperor was like putting a patrol dog at the gate of Cheng's house. After learning that the Cheng family did not wait for his adopted son, he gave him thirty jars of golden fragrant wine.
