Chapter 94 Discussion
Aunt Cheng didn't want her beloved eldest son to die, so she decided to send her younger son to serve as a soldier without even thinking about it.
But Brother Cheng is a lazy man, and he has just married his wife less than half a year ago, and she is still pregnant. With Deputy General Cheng gone, the family of more than ten people, old and young, cannot be supported by the Cheng family alone.
Aunt Cheng thought about it again and again, then she gritted her teeth and spent two taels of silver to marry Deputy General Cheng to a capable girl in the village.
This wife is Mrs. Cheng.
Less than half a month after their wedding, Lieutenant General Cheng was taken away by conscripts sent by the imperial court. Mrs. Cheng, who was lucky enough to be pregnant, stayed in the Cheng family to work as a cow and horse, serving her parents-in-law, brother-in-law, and three other people. sister-in-law, and nieces and nephews.
In the middle of winter, Mrs. Cheng had a big belly and was driven by her mother-in-law to the mountains to chop firewood. However, she fell due to a slippery road and miscarried the child. After being found and brought home, not only was she not well taken care of, but she was also raped by her mother-in-law. He was beaten and scolded.
That night, I was forced to get up and cook for the family.
The next day, as usual, I had to get up and feed the pigs and chickens, wash and cook, and take care of the yard. I also had to be scolded by my mother-in-law, saying that she was cruel and had killed the heirs of the Cheng family, and I was sorry for Lieutenant General Cheng.
Because the confinement period was not done well, Mrs. Cheng fell into many illnesses.
Five years later, when the war ended, Lieutenant General Cheng, who had thought he would die on the battlefield, suddenly returned. Because of his meritorious service, he became a member of a thousand households and was in charge of a group of small soldiers.
Vice General Cheng has become an official. Although his official position is not big, in the eyes of the common people, he is like heaven.
For a time, the whole village came to congratulate Aunt Cheng and please Aunt Cheng.
When one person attained enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascended to heaven, the Cheng family grew into a thousand households. Within a month, they moved out of the remote village and moved into a two-story house in the town.
Mrs. Cheng thought that when her husband came back, she would finally be relieved of her hardships, but...when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, and she is not included. Except for Uncle Cheng, everyone in the Cheng family has started living as a rich wife, a wealthy lady, Feng Liu's young master, and Kuo's young mistress.
Only Mrs. Cheng became the only maid in the family. In addition to no longer having to work in the fields, she did all the work outside the home, such as chopping firewood, diving, cooking, washing, cleaning, etc.
Moreover, he has to serve a family that is even more famous than before.
Washing feet, bathing, rubbing shoulders, and pinching legs are all things that Aunt Cheng often asked her to do after becoming the wife of Qianhu in order to manipulate her daughter-in-law.
In short, in order to prevent her from relying on her husband and becoming arrogant, Mrs. Cheng tortured her hard. She ate less than a chicken, worked more than an ox, got up earlier than a chicken, and went to bed later than a dog. She was busy from morning to At night, just hanging around the Cheng family, old and young, tired her out like a human being.
Finally one day, she collapsed and fainted from exhaustion, while Deputy General Cheng was present.
Lieutenant General Cheng was very busy training troops and doing tasks in the guard station. He only took one day off every month to go home and stay one night. He usually stayed at the guard station.
When he was resting, he would go out for drinks at the invitation of his colleagues during the day and visit friends. When he got home at night, he would rush onto his wife's body and work hard to vent the hope he had accumulated for a month.
And Mrs. Cheng also did her best to show off. Every time he took a bath, she would let Mrs. Cheng go to rest early in the evening.
His brother and sister would also show that they were very close to her and took her seriously. However, after Mrs. Cheng was threatened by the Cheng family, she did not dare to tell him anything.
