Chapter 405
Beijing General's Mansion
Cheng Yanbin sat at the top of the main hall with a cup of tea in his hand, and said to the housekeeper standing at the bottom, "How is the yard?"
The housekeeper replied respectfully: "Back to the general, everything is ready, just wait for the young master to return to the mansion."
Cheng Yanbin took a sip of tea: "Clean up the largest guest house in the east, and the Xiao family will return to Beijing. I'm afraid they won't have a foothold for the time being. Let's prepare early."
The housekeeper thinks about it too, the general is right, and he will be in a hurry when the time comes: "Yes, general, the old slave will order it in a while."
Cheng Yanbin knew that his son was coming back, so he couldn't be more excited, but he just forcibly pressed him in front of the servants, for fear of letting them see his nervousness.
At this moment, a guard came in to report: "General, there is someone visiting from outside the door, saying that you are from the clan of the five uniforms, and that there is something important to tell you."
Cheng Yanbin is in a good mood these days: "Let people come in."
The guard saluted, then turned around and went out to lead someone.
After a while, the guards brought people to the main hall, and Cheng Yanbin recognized them at a glance.
The guard brought the person, then turned and left, followed by a few people who walked forward and said, "I have seen the general."
Cheng Yanbin's face was cold and he didn't shout: "What are you doing here?"
The leader said, "General, I know that Xianglan deserves to die for her sins, but we are of the same clan no matter what, please leave a way for your family to survive."
Cheng Yanbin said coldly: "When you were living in the countryside, you couldn't even eat white rice. If the General's House hadn't pulled you out, you would be able to live in fine clothes and food today. But what did your daughter do? Still have the face to ask for the door?"
Cheng Shanyuan's forehead was covered in fine sweat, so he said he couldn't come, but his wife insisted that she was sure to turn things around.
Tan Rongzhi, who was standing on the side, had no idea in her heart, but she always had to fight for it. From frugal to extravagant, it was easy and from extravagance to frugality. Old things can come in handy.
Cheng Xianglan's mother Tan Rongzhi stepped forward at this time: "General, I have something to say to you alone."
Cheng Yanbin said coldly: "If you have something to say, just say it here, you don't need to say it alone."
Tan Rongzhi took a few steps forward and whispered, "It's about the general's life experience. Are you sure the general wants to speak in front of so many people?"
Cheng Yanbin frowned, but wanted to see what trick the woman was trying to play.
So he waved his hands and told everyone to step back: "Speak, if there is a half-truth, you know what's going to happen."
Tan Rongzhi was actually nervous to death. She was also afraid that she would be silenced by Cheng Yanbin if she said it, but if she didn't come here, their family would also die, so she wanted to come over and fight.
Because of the importance of the matter, I was so nervous that my palms were sweating, I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, and then said, "You are not actually the son of the Cheng family."
After hearing this, Cheng Yanbin frowned and repeated: "Not the son of the Cheng family?"
Tan Rongzhi bit the bullet and said, "Yes."
Cheng Yanbin looked at the person in front of him coldly: "And then, how did you know, who am I?"
Cheng Yanbin's aura was full, and Tan Rongzhi was frightened and said: "When your father was recruited, only your mother was left in the family to live on a fairly lucrative family business. Your father's family has not been prosperous. Passed on.
When your father left, your mother was two months pregnant. He was very worried, so he entrusted your mother to me and let me take care of her.
