The little cook in the book has fallen asleep

The Cheng family was robbed last night. The news that the gold that the emperor rewarded to the Cheng family was stolen spread throughout Qingshan Village. People in Qingshan Village spread the news from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. The wives in Qingshan Village spread the news back to their parents’ home, and the parents’ home spread the news to other places...

Everyone feels sorry for the stolen gold. It's worth thousands of taels of gold. If an ordinary family gets it, it can provide food and clothing for several generations.

Another thing is that I think these thieves are so bold that they even dare to steal the gold bestowed by the emperor!

Old Mrs. Cheng looked at her three daughters-in-law who were crying uncontrollably, and she rummaged through her bosom and took out three gold ingots.

"Mom, what is this?" Li Huaxiang shouted in surprise.

"I... I've never seen so much gold, so I was thinking about what it would feel like to sleep with gold in my arms, so I took out three pieces last night and carried them to bed!" said Old Mrs. Cheng.

No way! It was her daughter who said that she didn't want to live in this village anymore. No matter what she did, people would watch her. Even the thief crawled in from next door.

The silver note that Cheng Yu took out last time was also sealed by her and given to Eunuch Pan yesterday, and then Cheng Yu forced three gold ingots into her arms.

"Mom, we are so lucky to have you!" said Zhao Yun's mother. When she said this, Old Lady Cheng didn't know whether she was praising or criticizing her!

Because her daughter often says that she is blessed to have Cheng Xiaoba, and she always says this when Cheng Xiaoba does something bad.

"Sister-in-law, you are really prepared for a rainy day!" The county magistrate said, looking at the lovely old lady. Because of her, the Cheng family has kept at least three gold bars, which should be enough for their life.

"But I...we lost all the gold, and only have these three gold ingots..." After saying this, Old Mrs. Cheng squatted on the ground in frustration.

The villagers watching: ...What do you mean only? They have never even seen what a gold ingot looks like before!

"This...this...this person must be punished by God. He tore all the good cloth into pieces!" Lin Pan'er picked up the cloth that was torn into strips on the ground.

This happened last night after Cheng Mu and Cheng Jiang were given the cloth. They thought that they would not be able to use the cloth openly in the future, so they tore it into pieces in the kitchen, disgusting the Cheng family!

As arrogant and happy as they were then, they were as scared as ever now. The two of them just huddled in the corner and dared not move.

"I will give you an explanation. Take all the people away!" said Magistrate Wei.

"Yes!" The constable pulled Cheng Mu and the others who were tied up on the ground up and left the Cheng family.

The three Cheng Jin brothers followed the county magistrate to the county town to record their statements. After all, the lost boxes of gold had not been found yet.

"Hey, look, Cheng Lixiao has stood up!" After the officials dispersed, the onlookers suddenly saw Cheng Lixiao standing in the crowd and exclaimed in surprise.

"Xiao brother, are you okay?" Tian Xiaocao ran to Cheng Lixiao with a look of surprise and looked him up and down carefully.

"Yes, Auntie, I am well now, all thanks to the doctor Miss Sun found for me.

Last night, Cheng Chen came into our house with a dagger and wanted to kill us. I got anxious and started fighting with him, but I found that I could move freely! " Cheng Lixiao rarely spoke so much, and immediately explained the whole story.

In fact, Cheng Lixiao was able to walk after he recovered from his injuries.

But the Cheng family believed that it would take a hundred days for a broken bone to heal and he needed to be well recuperated, and the scheme against the Cheng family’s old house and the Qian family was not over yet, so the Cheng family still said to the outside world that he was paralyzed in bed and he went out in a wheelchair.

Sun Wu's original intention was also to let Cheng Lixiao take good care of his health, so when Sun Xiaoxiao arrived, he would bring a lot of tonics with great fanfare, and announce to the public that Cheng Lixiao was weak and needed medicine to stay alive.

Cheng Lixiao was finally able to stand up, and many people were happy for him. After all, Cheng Lixiao was polite, skilled, and kind, and he was considered an outstanding descendant of this generation in the Cheng family.

But later, he became paralyzed due to a serious injury, his engagement was broken off by the Qian family, he was mocked by Cheng Pandi, and he was abandoned by the old Cheng family... They all felt sorry for him at the time and were afraid that he would never recover.

Now that Cheng Lixiao can stand up again, everyone feels that this is simply a blessing from God.

This is also a great thing for the Cheng family.

Although they had always known that Xiao Ge'er was not paralyzed, the Cheng family was so excited that they burst into tears when they saw that he had really recovered and could even use Kung Fu to fight.

However, for the Cheng family, this was undoubtedly a disaster.

Especially Qian Xiu'er, she glared at the Cheng family fiercely, her heart filled with resentment and jealousy.

Why can the Cheng family live such a good life? Why can Cheng Lixiao stand up again after breaking off the engagement? All this should have been hers!

At the same time, at the old Cheng family, Cheng Zhong was filled with sadness when he saw his daughter-in-law Liu Hua being taken away by the officials.

Now that the officials have come to their house, it means that Cheng Chen and others' plan has failed. Then their family...

At this moment, he felt extremely desperate. The old Cheng family was completely ruined, and it was Cheng Chen and the others who had given the advice and were the masterminds!

Yesterday, Old Lady Cheng was beaten to a point worse than death simply because she tried to steal gold bricks. If they were charged with such a serious crime as stealing the imperial gift, one can imagine how miserable their end would be!

Thinking of this, Cheng Zhong couldn't help but shiver, and sat down on the ground. Their Cheng family was finished, and three of his seven grandsons had died.

If they are really sentenced, their family will be doomed!

"Third brother, third brother's family must have a way!" Old Master Cheng thought that Old Master Cheng must have a way, and immediately ran to the Cheng family, but it was too late!

If he had stopped Liu Hua and Cheng Pandi's conspiracy in time when he heard it, their Cheng family would not be like this.

"Third brother, third brother, please save your sister-in-law and your nephew," Old Master Cheng started shouting as soon as he ran to the Cheng family.

"Then who will save us? Have you ever thought that our family's gold is lost, the imperial gift is lost. If we hadn't caught the thieves, we would be the ones in jail now!" said Old Master Cheng.

"Father-in-law, you really shouldn't be so biased! If my son Xiao hadn't had the Sun family's help in finding a doctor, he would never have been able to stand up! Not only did you ignore anything at the time, but you also snatched his marriage and came to our house to ask for money!" said Old Lady Cheng.

She wiped it with a small handkerchief. She was sad, but it was not worth crying for such a person.

"I...but they are your sister-in-law and niece! I...I didn't know they would do such a thing!" said Old Master Cheng.

Cheng Yu held Xiao Ou and stood behind Old Lady Cheng, then said in his heart, "Grandpa, grandma, don't believe him. When Liu Hua and Cheng Pandi were discussing how to deal with our family, he was sitting at the door!"

"Dad, do you know that my sister-in-law asked Cheng Chen to bring people to kill us?" asked Old Master Cheng.

When he heard Cheng Yu say that Old Master Cheng knew about the conspiracy between his eldest sister-in-law and Cheng Pandyi, he was shocked. He knew that he was unwelcome, but he didn't know that the old master actually wanted him dead.

"I... I don't know!" Old Master Cheng said with a guilty conscience. He was angry at the time and felt very happy when he heard Liu Hua's plan.

"Dad, I want to ask you, we are both your son, why do you hate me so much?" Old Master Cheng asked puzzled.

When Mr. Cheng saw his expression, he understood. How could this old man not know Liu Hua’s plan? He must be hating why Cheng Chen and the others failed!

"I..." Old Master Cheng couldn't explain it clearly. He only knew that his second son died and Cheng Tielin was born. Even the name Cheng Tielin was given to his second son.

He had been looking forward to having this child, but because of his difficult labor, he lost the son who looked most like him, so he began to resent this son.

Looking closely, it is actually the third son who is the most like him, but the old lady often nags him, saying that he is unfilial and so on, so his heart is biased.

"Dad, this is the last time I will call you dad. I will never forgive those who want to kill my whole family!

Besides, the law is unforgiving. If the county magistrate hadn't been alerted before, it would have been fine. Now even if the emperor came, it would be useless!" Even a good-tempered person like Mr. Cheng was so angry that he said harsh words.

"Father-in-law, the lives of your eldest daughter-in-law and eldest grandson are lives, but the lives of our family are not lives?" said Old Mrs. Cheng.

This time, the people in the old house really disappointed Brother Lin, so she stood up for him.

"You! You woman, don't talk nonsense! If he had listened to us and married Liu Qing, there wouldn't have been so many troubles!" Old Master Cheng said stubbornly.

"Haha, inbreeding gives birth to fools!" Cheng Yu couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and said in his heart.

"Grandpa Cheng, please go away. Your family is not welcome in our home!

Moreover, old man, do you think your great-grandchildren are as promising as those of my family?

Marrying Mu Qiu is the best decision I have ever made in my life!" said Old Master Cheng, and then he leaned close to Old Master Cheng's ear and said, "Old Master, close relatives are likely to give birth to fools. If you don't believe me, look at Cheng Yue and Cheng Duo!"

Cheng Yue, Cheng Duo, Cheng Xiao, and Cheng Duo are all from the first and fourth wives (all married daughters of the Liu family). They are now in their teens and when they get angry they yell and smash things.

It would have been fine if Cheng Yue and Cheng Duo were sons, but Cheng Xiao and Cheng Duo were daughters who were sold to bachelors in the mountains when they were ten years old. Now no one knows whether they are dead or alive.

"Please come in, Old Master Cheng. Goodbye!" said Old Master Cheng.

From then on, he thought of himself as an orphan. When he was feeling depressed, Old Lady Cheng secretly took his hand and shook it.

Yes, he still has a wife, and in the future he will have a son, daughter-in-law, grandchildren, and his beloved daughter.

Cheng Yu ran to his feet and asked for a hug, and he immediately hugged him and kissed him. This was his family.

At the Lin family, Lin Xin looked forward to seeing Scar open the stolen box, only to find that it was filled with stones.

"What's going on?" he demanded loudly.

“This…this, I don’t know either! I just received the box from Liu Er at that time!” Scar said respectfully, with cold sweat on his back.

"Waste, waste! The gold bars have been replaced! Take these silks and sell them to me!" Lin Xin said. If one thing is lost, the other must be replaced. Not only that, but so many brothers have been lost.

"Report, Master Lin, people outside are saying these are gifts from the Emperor!" A little minion ran in and said immediately.

"What! Scar, you are going to kill me! Quick, take it out and deal with it for me!" Lin Xin was so angry that he threw a teacup on Scar.

"Master Lin, I don't know either. I'll deal with it right now!" Scar immediately knelt on the ground, picked up the silk and wanted to go out.

"Stop! You rebellious son, are you going to kill our Lin family?" The head of the Lin family rushed forward and slapped Lin Xin in the face.

A bastard is a bastard, he is too shortsighted. If his mother wasn’t favored... Thinking of his mother’s delicate skin and tender flesh, the head of the Lin family immediately swallowed his saliva.

"Master, Cheng Chen lied to us, saying that Cheng Tielin's family had no background and made a fortune!" Scar said to Master Lin flatteringly.

"No background? Can you afford to offend the Sun family? Scar, I remember you've suffered a loss once, why are you still being stupid! Yesterday, the imperial envoy came to Bai Ze County and went to Qingshan Village. Don't you think about where the gold came from!" The head of the Lin family looked at the master and servant, what a bunch of idiots!

"You'd better pray that you can't find our Lin family, otherwise we will go to hell together!" The head of the Lin family shook his sleeves and left angrily.

"Master, do you still want to sell these?" Scar asked.

The main thing is that they have already dealt with several horses, and it is too late to withdraw!

"Sell it? What are you afraid of? Sell it with great fanfare!" Lin Xin said hatefully.

What was there to be afraid of? Even that useless Lin Feng was trampled under his feet. It was just a Sun Family Escort Agency, a gift from the emperor? The emperor was far away, and he didn't believe that the county magistrate would dare to touch him.

Of course, it was not until Lin Xin lived a life of wandering that he realized that he was the real fool and the waste!
