Shang Xi shook her head helplessly and responded with a wry smile: "You don't have to worry. I have already checked the dining hall three times. According to the old housekeeper, the food he wants to make for your uncle will not be ready until dark. You don't know how much he brought for your uncle. Now it has filled up two cars. With your uncle's appetite, how much can he eat?"

Cheng Feng was not surprised at all when he heard this. He said, "I've seen that the old housekeeper has a stubborn temper for a long time. As long as he is determined to do something, even if my uncle comes out to stop him, it will be useless. Forget it, let him do whatever he wants. When we load all the things into the car, we will set off."

After he finished speaking, Cheng Feng collapsed on the bed like a puddle of mud, looking like a seriously ill person who was dying. He kept making humming sounds, and the sounds were getting louder and louder.

Shang Xi was a little annoyed: "I just hit you a few times with the stick, do you have to groan and scream so miserably and earth-shatteringly? Each sound is louder than the last, if you don't know, you would think we are slaughtering pigs here!"

When Cheng Feng heard this, he showed an aggrieved expression on his face, and he argued with Shang Xi in a weak manner: "Wife, I am your husband, you are too harsh on me. It's because I am in good health, otherwise I would be disabled now! How could you be so cruel to me?"

Shang Xi was filled with anger and remorse when she heard this. She glared at Cheng Feng fiercely and said sternly, "How can I watch you beat my son because of a woman?"

Hearing this, Cheng Feng showed a trace of guilt on his face, but he still argued: "I didn't do anything to my son. I just kicked Cheng Youning three times. Look at how you beat me. There is not a single good spot on my body! Ouch, ouch... It hurts so much! It hurts so much!"

Seeing him yelling like this, Shang Xi said impatiently and irritably, "Stop yelling. It would be embarrassing enough if the servants heard it."

However, Cheng Feng didn't care about these at all. He still went on as he pleased and yelled, "Humph! It's embarrassing, but it's my own face that's being embarrassed."

Shang Xi said: "We are a family. As the saying goes, if one prospers, we all prosper. If one suffers, we all suffer. If you take advantage, I take advantage. If you lose face, I lose face. So, don't cry out 'ouch, ouch' anymore. I can't afford to lose face with you."

However, Cheng Feng turned a deaf ear to Shang Xi's words and continued to do as he pleased. He placed his head heavily on Shang Xi's legs, and kept groaning "ouch ouch ouch". These cries were like knives, cutting Shang Xi's heart again and again, torturing Shang Xi to no end.

At this moment, there was a creaking sound, and the door was suddenly pushed open. It turned out to be Cheng Youning running in happily.

At this time, Cheng Youning pushed the door and ran in. When he saw his father holding his mother's thigh and groaning, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, his face full of astonishment.

Seeing Cheng Youning, Cheng Feng immediately changed his expression and asked, "Why are you here?"

Cheng Youning blinked his eyes and answered crisply, "Oh, Daddy, I just heard Hei Bajiao say that you kept yelling 'ouch ouch' in the room. I think my mother must have hit you too hard today and hurt you, so I came here specially to bring you some medicine."

As she spoke, she raised her little hand and handed the small and exquisite medicine bottle that she had been holding in her palm to Cheng Feng.

Cheng Feng looked at the small medicine bottle in Cheng Youning's hand and said, "You didn't get much medicine from Yan Shizhao. Sui Dan also asked for some yesterday. There aren't many left. You can keep it for yourself."

Cheng Youning patted his butt and said to Cheng Feng with a smile: "Daddy, my injury has healed. It doesn't hurt at all now. If you don't believe me, come and have a look."

Cheng Feng smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, no, since it's a good medicine, you can keep it and use it slowly. With your naughty temper, you may get a bruise on your butt someday."

Cheng Youning said, "After I go up the mountain, I will ask Yan Shizhao for more. A doctor is like a parent, he will give me the medicine, so you can use it without worry, Dad."

Cheng Feng asked, "Why? You want to go with us too? Didn't you run back because you were beaten in the army? You've only been back for a few days, why are you thinking of going again?"

"Dad, of course I have to go. What if something needs my help and grandpa can't find the right person? So I'd better go!" When Cheng Youning said this, he looked very serious and his expression became somewhat solemn.

Cheng Feng reached out his hand and pulled Cheng Youning into his arms, and whispered, "Okay, then you can go with Daddy. But remember, you must be extra careful when doing things for your little grandfather, and you must not act rashly, okay?"

Cheng Youning nodded and said, "I know."

Shang Xi couldn't help but sigh, her heart full of worry and helplessness. For the sake of Wan Lianxing's grand plan, Wan Lianxing asked Cheng Youning to do several tasks that no one else could do. At this moment, when the enemy was at hand, it was reasonable for everyone to work together to fight against the foreign enemy, but she couldn't suppress her inner worry about the safety of her own Cheng Youning.

You know, none of the things that Wan Lianxing asked Cheng Youning to do were easy. Shang Xi couldn't help but complain to Cheng Feng beside her: "My uncle asked Cheng Youning to do high-risk things. On the day of the prayer, Cheng Youning's eyebrows and eyelashes were burned off, and they took a month to grow back. Fortunately, it was only the hair that was injured. If it was a vital part, we would cry our hearts out."

Cheng Feng also looked worried after hearing this. He asked Shang Xi, "Is there still no news since the follower left?"

Shang Xi sighed again, shook his head and replied: "It would be great if this person came back! As long as he is here, at least some difficult things will not fall on Cheng Youning."

Although Cheng Youning was still young, he had grown up a lot. He could understand about 50% to 60% of the conversations between the adults. He suddenly interrupted and said, "My master probably won't be back."

Cheng Feng asked: "Who told you this?"

Cheng Youning tilted his head and thought for a while, then answered seriously: "It was Dandan who said that, but I think he is a simple person and never perfunctory, so what he said should be true. Besides, my grandfather has never mentioned my master in the past two years."
