It was already late, and Sanlang was coaxed to sleep by the wet nurse. Cheng Jinrong led A Yuan and Aman to send Duke Ping out of the mansion.

After Duke Ping left, Cheng Jinrong whispered to He Qi: "What did you say to your father-in-law? Why did he look calm and unhappy?"

He Qi casually told the scene he had just said.

Cheng Jinrong laughed in silence: "So too. How can you still remember that old story in your heart?"

This petty and scrupulous father even held grudges. He should have let go of the grudges in his previous life.

He Qi was silent for a moment and reluctantly squeezed out a few words: "Actually, I also want to talk and get along well with him. But as soon as I meet, I can't say something."

I habitually want to choke my dad.

Even though he knew that Duke Ping was angry, he refused to say a few soft words to make his father happy.

Cheng Jinrong smiled helplessly and said, "You just love to hold grudges too much. When you see your father-in-law in the future, you will smile and speak softerly. Don't always be so tough."

He Qi nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

This perfunctory is too obvious.

Cheng Jinrong smiled and angrily glanced at him, and didn't say anything more.

...

He Qi took A Yuan and Aman to wash and sleep. Cheng Jinrong went to his father Cheng Wang's house.

The father and daughter sat opposite each other and looked at each other. They each had a lot of words, but at this moment they didn't know where to start, so they just looked at each other and smiled.

After a moment, Cheng Wangxian broke the silence: "Jinrong, I didn't expect that you would really quit your official position and come to the border."

The Imperial Hospital is a fifth-rank official position. In the capital, such an official position is inconspicuous. However, the Imperial Hospital official office is the leader of all medical officials. They can enter the palace to wait for diseases and walk in front of the imperial government. They have an irreplaceable status and role. They are also the ultimate dream of all medical practitioners in the world.

Cheng Wang had such a dream when he was young. One day, he would become an excuse for the Imperial Hospital.

Others envied everything that was out of reach, but when they arrived at Cheng Jinrong, they let go of their hands lightly.

Cheng Wang felt a little regretful.

Cheng Jinrong looked at Cheng Wang who knew nothing, and felt a little guilty in his heart. He whispered: "Dad, I have been waiting in the palace for several years, trembling every day, and I am really tired."

"I want to be a good doctor, treat diseases, save lives and heal the wounded. I don't care about the level of official positions."

"Also, I don't want to separate from He Qi. The children are attached to me, my mother, and also need the company of their father. He Qi and I grew up without their parents, so we don't want the children to repeat our lives."

As soon as he said that, Cheng Wang looked ashamed: "Jinrong, over the years, my real father really sorry for you..."

"I don't mean to blame you." Cheng Jinrong smiled slightly: "In the past, you had no choice but to keep me in the capital. As the chief general, my father-in-law could not bring his family to the border. This is nothing to do."

"The emperor's kindness is so great that I am allowed to resign from office and leave Beijing. I can live with my husband and son in the future and meet my father at all times. In my heart, this is more important than being a fifth-rank Imperial Hospital."

Cheng Jinrong's expression was soft and firm.

Cheng Wang sighed with a smile: "You look gentle, but you are actually a stubborn temper. You will walk without looking back on what you decide."

Cheng Jinrong took the conversation casually: "Well, I'm the same as my father."

The father and daughter laughed together.

"It's good that you're here to be in the border." Cheng Wang smiled and said, "It's not as prosperous as the capital, and there are very few doctors. If you open a clinic here, you can also accept some apprentices. The people of Guyuan Town will be blessed."

Cheng Jinrong smiled and said, "I came to the border this time, and I had more than a dozen carriages with medicinal materials alone. When I drove the medical officer, it would be enough to support the use of a year."

Cheng Wang's eyes lit up when he heard this and immediately said, "The army also lacks medicinal materials. You have brought so many medicinal materials and will never be used up in a short time. Why would you let me borrow 80%?"

Cheng Jinrong: “…”

Cheng Wang touched his nose and changed his mouth and said, "80% is indeed a bit too much. Let's do this, I'll borrow 50% first. Or just turn it into silver for you."

Then, he sighed: "In recent years, the border army has not recruited new people, and the military pay is the same as before. There is no big battle to fight at the border, but the small battle has not stopped."

"The army is short of medicinal materials all year round. I often urge the army to buy them, but the money in the army is limited. We have to pay close attention to the soldiers' meals, clothes, and pay military salaries, as well as war horses, archers, and weapons. Everything is needed. It is always not enough to buy medicinal materials. We military doctors feel really uncomfortable when we see the soldiers being injured and have no medicine available."

Cheng Jinrong raised his hand and surrendered: "Dad, stop complaining. Give you half of the medicinal materials evenly."

Cheng Wang was happy and bowed to thank him: "I thank you for the injured soldiers."

After a moment of gossip, Lu Huiniang and her son soon talked about it.

"Brother You is nearly three years younger than Ayuan Aman, and now he is studying." Cheng Wang mentioned his youngest son, his eyes full of gentle and joyful light: "A few days later, I will lead Brother You and Hui Niang over here, so that you can see you too."

Cheng Jinrong pursed her lips and smiled, "There is no reason why elders come to see younger generations. When we settle down, I will take the three brothers A Yuan to pay tribute to my mother."

This mother called her very natural, without hesitation at all.

Cheng Wang was moved and whispered: "Hui Niang is a good wife. I respect her and love her. But I have never forgotten your mother. Brother Yu'er is smart and cute, and is my blood. I also cherish him very much. However, in my heart, you will always be my beloved daughter. No one can replace you."

Cheng Jinrong's nose was slightly sore, and his eyes were a little red: "Dad, you didn't feel sorry for my mother, nor did you feel sorry for me. My mother is knowledgeable underground. She will be happy for you when she sees your wife and children. "

"I'm 26 this year, I have a husband and son, and my life is peaceful and happy. How could I be jealous with Brother Yu? Don't always be upset about these trivial matters."

Cheng Wang didn't let anyone down.

It was her daughter who kept the news that her mother was still alive. To say sorry, she was also sorry to her father.

However, there is nothing perfect in the world. Now, it is the best ending.

Cheng Wang didn't know Cheng Jinrong's complicated thoughts. Seeing her voice choked and tears in her eyes, she felt very distressed, and hurriedly said softly: "Forget it, you don't want to listen, I just don't say it."

"You have been on the road for three months and have only arrived at the border today. You must be exhausted. Go to sleep first! You have to talk, and there will be a lot of time in the future."

yes!

From now on, she stayed by the side and could see her father every few days.
