Extra Chapter 20: The Aftermath of Getting Married
The three of them left Dong'an Mansion and went south before Shu Yu and the others, so naturally they couldn't go with them.
Shu Yu and others quickly settled down in the inn. Meng Han had a big belly and it was inconvenient. Shu Yu said a few words to her and asked Gan Rui to send her back to rest.
Not long after they left, the team members came back one after another.
Huo Huo couldn't stay in the inn and wanted to go out to play, and Xiao Mianmian was also eager to try.
Shu Yu really admired their strong energy. Fortunately, those students in the academy were not willing to let go of the local customs and customs wherever they went. They were also very energetic and wanted to go out for a walk.
Shu Yu asked Xia Yan and Ying Xi to take their two children and follow the group of scholars to play.
She herself took the account book that Jiang Fengshou had just handed over and started reading it. Unexpectedly, a hearty laugh came from halfway through.
Shu Yu put down the account book in his hand, looked outside, and saw Chengxian and Master Cheng.
Oh, no, I’m not called an adult now.
Master Cheng's original name was Cheng Kangqi. After the Southwest Incident four years ago, the entire Cheng family was escorted back to Beijing.
He was charged with negligence and was imprisoned and interrogated for several months. It can be said that he suffered a lot.
However, with Qi Lie speaking for him, Meng Yunzheng will also truthfully report the matter of cooperating with Master Cheng to take down the rebels. In addition, Master Cheng had some connections in the capital and Master Qi's plea.
In the end, the emperor only dismissed him from office, but did not behead him or sentence him to exile.
Afterwards, he was allowed to return to his hometown in white.
And the family’s hometown is in Changjin Mansion.
Back then, Chengfeng had participated in black market activities, and was even involved a lot, so his family was either beheaded or exiled.
Most of his property was confiscated.
When Cheng Kangqi came back, there was only a somewhat dilapidated old house.
But for Cheng Kangqi, it was great luck to be able to return to his hometown without being beheaded.
What's wrong with living in a dilapidated old house? After tidying up, you can still live your life without wind and rain.
Fortunately, Chengxian had listened to Meng Yunzheng's persuasion earlier and used his many years of savings to buy a real estate shop in Changjin Mansion. Although there were only a dozen acres of land and a shop, it was enough to become a family. It’s the capital to settle down and live here.
What's more, the current magistrate of Changjin Mansion is Mr. Qi's nephew.
When Qi Chan was exiled to the southwest, Cheng Kangqi took good care of him. In order to make him suffer less, he always took him with him as his teacher and respected him.
Qi Chan reciprocated the favor and not only tried his best to save him after his accident, but also wrote a letter to his nephew asking him to take more care of him.
Fortunately, Magistrate Qi took care of him, otherwise Cheng Kangqi and his family would not have had a good time in Changjin Mansion.
Many people who have been implicated by Chengfeng and bullied by the Cheng family see the decline of the Cheng family, shouldn't they have to settle accounts with them? They don't care whether Cheng Kangqi is in the same group as Cheng Feng, nor do they care that Cheng Kangqi is also implicated by Cheng Feng. Anyway, they all have the surname Cheng. Cheng Feng is doing power and good deeds outside, and maybe he is an official. Sometimes I help support you.
The door of Cheng's family was really smashed with mud and sewage splashed all day long. If Magistrate Qi hadn't made a clear attitude and asked the officials to come and stop it, Cheng's family would have been beaten when they went out.
Now a few years later, Cheng's family is slowly getting better, and Cheng Kangqi's wife even proposed a marriage to Cheng Xian.
