Early the next morning, as soon as the sky turned white, the Qiao family received news that General Zheng had returned to Beijing and was coming to visit Qiao's family and see his daughter.

At the same time, there were also instructions from the ghost doctor and Qiao Ran to prepare first aid measures.

All of a sudden, everyone in Qiao's family became busy.

Qiao Ran and Qiao Dong went into the mountains and came back in less than half an hour.

Qiao Dong carried two hares and a pheasant in his hands, while Qiao Ran carried a half-sized wild boar on her shoulders and two large birds in her hands.

A few days ago, Mr. Mo sent a lot of vegetables, and Qiao Ran picked some fresh vegetables and fruits from the space to mix them in.

Zheng Huiniang covered her daughter, and then took the fresh vegetables and fruits to wash, preparing to entertain her own father.

When Lin Guizhen saw her sister-in-law bringing out so many vegetables and fruits, she quickly stepped forward to pick them up.

"Sister-in-law, just leave the washing and cooking to me and Sister-in-law Qin. Sanhu and my second brother will do the killing of pigs, chickens and feathers. You'd better go change into a new set of nice-looking clothes and accompany your mother in the tent. Just talk and wait for General Zheng to come to your door."

Lin Guizhen took the basket with one hand and gently pushed Zheng Huiniang with the other, urging her to dress up and sit down to wait for the arrival of General Zheng.

Zheng Huiniang was pushed by her and turned around to face the tent. She couldn't help but smile helplessly: "We are all members of our own family. How do we need to dress up when we see our own father?"

Although she said this, she still returned to the tent obediently, found a new set of clothes that Mrs. Zheng had chosen for her last time, combed her hair again, and then walked back to the big tent to watch with Mrs. Qiao. Four little guys playing together.

Not long after breakfast, the carriage from the General's Mansion arrived.

Just like when Mrs. Zheng first came to visit, there were several carriages following behind, all of which were filled with all kinds of meat, vegetables, fruits and snacks.

Although Zheng Huiniang was embroidering and talking to her mother-in-law in the tent, she couldn't help but glance outside the tent, and her ears were paying attention to what was going on outside.

When I heard Qiao Bei playing outside the tent shouting loudly: "Mother, there are many carriages coming outside, it's grandma who's coming!"

Zheng Huiniang suddenly stood up from the stool, threw the pattern she had only embroidered with a few stitches on the table and walked out quickly.

Qiao Ran, who was quietly feeding horses and cows with spiritual spring water at the livestock shed by the stream, heard the noise and looked up. Sure enough, she saw several carriages coming from the mountain road and stopping in the open space in front of the tent area.

Qiao Ran gently patted the head of the already intelligent horse and walked towards her tent.

But before she got close, she had already seen an old man who was helping her grandmother out of the carriage. Although he was not young, he was as tall and tall as an iron pine.

Isn't that the old man who had a sudden heart attack that he saved on the road yesterday?

That's actually his own grandfather? What kind of fate is this?

In front of the tent, the excited Zheng Huiniang met Mrs. Zheng, who had just been helped out of the carriage by General Zheng.

"Mom, you are here!"

"Well, Hui Niang, come, come and meet your father. This is your father."

Mrs. Zheng smiled lovingly and patted her wife who was supporting her: "Old man, look, this is our daughter, her name is Huiniang. Look how much she looks like you!"

Zheng Huiniang stepped forward and knelt down with a thud, her voice choked with sobs: "Dad, my daughter is unfilial and didn't find you earlier, which has made you and my mother worry for so many years."

Old General Zheng loosened his wife's hand and quickly took two steps forward to help the man kneeling on the ground.

He looked up and down at the girl in front of him who looked at least 60-70% similar to him, as if he couldn't get enough.

The always iron-blooded old general couldn't help but have red eyes:

"Nanny... Hui Niang, you are my daughter, my daughter! As expected, you are my daughter. Aren't your eyebrows and eyebrows exactly the same as when your father and I were young? Although your father is a rough man, but young He had a pretty handsome face at that time, otherwise, your mother wouldn’t have given up on so many officials’ children in the capital to choose me, a rough guy who can only read a few words but doesn’t know how to make a fuss!”

General Zheng's words made Mrs. Zheng, who was wiping tears at the side, feel ashamed and angry. She thought that her husband would be so excited to meet his daughter that she would have a heart attack, but she never expected that he would actually boast about it.

For a moment, she didn't care about being in this public place, with the villagers surrounding her watching the excitement, she stepped forward and secretly twisted the old general's arm: "You old thing, are you acting stupid again? What are you talking about? You dare to say it! Just take it easy, remember what the doctor said, and don’t be overjoyed or sad!"

After glaring at her indifferent wife, she turned to face her daughter, her eyes immediately became soft and loving:

"You stupid kid, what are you talking about? It's because of your parents that they lost you when you were a child. They didn't get you back in time and made you suffer for so many years. It's your parents who are ashamed of you. !”

"Mom, please don't say that! If you say this, my daughter will feel even more guilty. She has not been able to fulfill her filial piety in front of you two elders for so many years, and it also makes you worry and sad about your daughter."

"Don't think so. You don't know your life experience. What can you do wrong? Well, let the past go. Like Ran Ran said, we must cherish the present and the future and stop dwelling on the past. .”

After saying that, Mrs. Zheng looked at her husband's face again and saw that although the old man was a little excited, his emotions were well controlled, so she asked her daughter: "Huiniang, where are Ranran, Dong'er and Bei'er?"

Mrs. Zheng looked at the group of people who had just come out of the tent, but she could not see her grandchildren and granddaughters.

Zheng Huiniang gently pushed Qiao Bei, who had just walked over holding Qiuqiu, and Qiao Dong, who had just walked over after carrying water, and said, "Dong'er and Bei'er are here! Ran Ran went to the stream to feed the horses. Come over soon!"

He looked around again, pointed at Qiao Ran who had just walked over and said, "Ran Ran is back too."

Mrs. Zheng waved to her granddaughter: "Ran Ran, come here quickly! And Dong'er and Bei'er, come on, they all came to meet your grandpa!"

Qiao Ran strode forward and said: "Grandma, grandpa, this mountain road is not easy to walk. It should be me and my mother who go to see you. How can I bother you to come here?"

Mrs. Zheng smiled and said: "What's the point? This road is much easier to walk, and my body and bones are much better. The road is not tiring me. And your grandpa insisted on coming to see for himself how the place you live is like. , why don’t you just accompany him?”

Qiao Ran stepped forward, knelt in front of General Zheng together with his two younger brothers, and shouted in unison: "Grandpa!"
