Chapter 366 Selling Coal

"By the way, your eldest brother still doesn't want to interact with others?" Hu Dahai looked at Feng Er while eating, "Please try to persuade him when you have time."

"Your eldest brother is not a bad person, it's just that your eldest sister-in-law is a bit too much."

"Let him be more open-minded. I'll introduce him to someone when the weather warms up."

Feng Er responded randomly.

Although he lived in the same house with Feng Da, he didn't know much about his brother's current situation.

Why should he understand?

When his stepmother abused him in every way, didn't his elder brother Feng Da turn a blind eye?

"Bring some meat and vegetables to him later." Shen Wan thought for a moment and said, "I have some dipping sauce here, which should be enough for him."

Feng Er's eyes moved slightly.

"Thank you, young madam." He pretended to be grateful.

Soon, everyone was full.

While everyone was clearing away their dishes, Feng Er went upstairs with two plates of vegetables and meat.

Although he now lived in the post station as a handyman, Shen Wan did not let him move to the backyard.

As long as she didn't speak, the officials in charge of the post station didn't dare to say anything.

Feng Er went upstairs along the half-worn wooden stairs.

He did not return to his room, but went straight to Xie Murong's room.

The shabby wooden door was tightly closed, and Feng Er could not see clearly inside.

He straightened his clothes and then raised his hand to knock on the door.

The young widow also went to the camp to wash clothes. Now Xie Murong could live here alone, which provided convenience for Feng Er.

The room was quiet, deathly silent.

Feng Er's face changed.

Just as he was about to break in, he heard a low laugh.

"Stop knocking, she's not in the room." Shen Wan leaned against the wall and looked at him with a forced smile.

Feng Er’s face turned pale.

"Young Madam...you...please don't misunderstand..." He looked a little flustered and stammered, "I...I just saw that there were a lot of meat and vegetables, and my eldest brother couldn't finish them all by himself, so..."

many?

Feng Da is a man.

In addition, the journey of exile was extremely difficult, so everyone's appetite increased a lot compared to before.

It was not difficult for Feng Da to eat these two dishes of meat.

"If you like me, then you like me. Why do you have to hide it?" Shen Wan put away the smile on her face and looked at him seriously. "If you don't tell me, I'll ask the prince later to see if he knows about it."

Upon hearing this, Feng Er immediately became anxious.

No matter what, Xie Mubai must not know about this.

The Xie family is most particular about family background.

The reason why the sickly prince agreed to let Li remarry was simply because he saw that Hu Dahai was a good citizen.

If Hu Dahai was a fugitive, Xie Mubai would never agree to it.

Seeing that Shen Wan was really about to leave, Feng Er hurried forward to stop her.

"Young Madam, please don't misunderstand me. All of this is just wishful thinking on my part." He bent slightly and said nervously, "I'm a fugitive. How can I be worthy of Miss Xie?"

Even if he is not a fugitive, he still carries the identity of an assassin.

Even if he lives on the edge of a knife, he really doesn't want to implicate others.

Shen Wan couldn’t help but laugh when she heard this.

"We've all fallen to this point, so how can we talk about who's worthy and who's not?" She stared into Feng Er's eyes and said with a smile, "Do you know why I want you to stay?"

Feng Er was shocked.

Seeing his surprised expression, Shen Wan smiled slightly: “The eyes don’t lie.”

"I know you like Murong, so I found a reason to bring you here."

After hearing this, Feng Er was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a long time.

He thought that he and Shen Wan were not very close, so how could she be so kind as to facilitate this marriage?

Could it be that she hated Xie Murong so she deliberately married her sister-in-law to a fugitive?

Thinking of this, Feng Er's eyes suddenly showed a thin layer of ice: "Why did you do this?"

“Because you are a good person.” Seeing the coldness in his eyes, Shen Wan smiled coldly, “I want to find a good home for Murong.”

"As you know, because of the matter between Murong and the Third Prince, her relationship with the Crown Prince has become strained."

"But even so, it can't change the prince's concern for his sister."

"If I marry Murong to you, the prince will have put one thing at ease."

After hearing this, Feng Er's doubts were finally dispelled.

I have to admit that the relationship between the Xie brothers and sisters is much better than that between the Feng brothers.

If this happened in the Feng family, it would be good if he was not beaten to death by the other brothers.

"But...but a lowly man cannot marry a decent girl." His eyes reddened slightly.

Shen Wan smiled and said, “So this matter depends on your own performance.”

"As long as you work honestly and don't cause trouble, I can ask the old tutor for mercy and see if you can be exempted from your exile status.

As the emperor's teacher, the old tutor has a strong say in front of the dog emperor.

It is not convenient for him to intervene with the status of Xie Mubai, but for a cannon fodder like Feng Er who was innocently implicated, the dog emperor is still willing to do the old tutor a favor.

Of course, Shen Wan also knew it.

As long as Feng Er reveals his true identity, the Third Prince will definitely protect him.

However, she didn't want to give the third prince this opportunity.

The Lone Wolf is dead. If we take Scorpion as our own, wouldn't that be equivalent to cutting off the two arms of the Son of Destiny?

After hearing this, Feng Er became even more grateful to Shen Wan.

Shen Wan smiled and took out another silver note and handed it over.

"No, I can't accept this!" Feng Er took a look and shook his head quickly.

Shen Wan smiled and said, “Take it, this is not for you.”

"You also know that Murong is a very arrogant person."

"If I give her something, she might not accept it."

"But a girl needs more things after all, and she doesn't have much money, so I can only trouble you to take care of her."

After hearing this, Feng Er felt even more like he was nothing.

The young lady was so nice, yet he suspected she had ulterior motives.

In fact, Shen Wan did have ulterior motives. How could he pursue girls without money?

Feng Er is not good-looking and can't say sweet words.

How could he catch up with Xie Murong without giving her some small gifts?

As long as their matter is settled, even if the Third Prince holds a knife to Feng Er's neck, he will never become an enemy of the Xie family.

"Young Madam." Feng Er's eyes reddened as he looked at her gratefully. "I really don't know what to say."

"Then you don't have to say anything." Shen Wan said with a smile, "Also, don't give Murong our leftover food in the future. The young lady of the Duke's Mansion is naturally a little proud."

"Didn't Hu Dahai say there's a small restaurant opposite the county government office? You can buy it there."

After hearing this, Feng Er nodded vigorously.

Yes, he needs to work harder.

No matter how hard and difficult the process is, he will stick to it!

I have to say that Feng Er is a very persevering person.

For several days in a row, he sent various snacks to Xie Murong every day, almost feeding her food.

While Feng Er was busy, Shen Wan asked Hu Dahai to take a few brothers to the coal mine.

Although the Qin family's name is useful, it will inevitably arouse suspicion over time.

Now that Hu Dahai is here, it would be perfect to let him be responsible for the escort.

Hu Dahai did not disappoint her expectations. Within a few days, he transported the coal from the mine to Lanyang City.

Soon, high-quality coal was put on sale at the post station.

"How dare that girl sell coal privately?" After hearing the report from the officer, Chu Wei was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a long time.
