Chapter 13 Asking for a Fight



Have a good night.

After taking the medicine and falling asleep, Cheng Yue'e broke out in a sweat and her fever disappeared.

At night, Wei Yunlan got up and reached out several times, then took a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his sister-in-law's body.

The most dangerous night passed, and by the early morning, Cheng Yue'e's spirit had improved much compared to the previous day.

"The old gentleman yesterday was a great doctor. I was too biased in judging people by their appearance." Gao couldn't help feeling ashamed. At first, she thought that barefoot doctors in the countryside were unreliable.

"It's okay. Although mother doesn't trust him, she didn't neglect the old gentleman. Instead, she always treated him with courtesy." The old gentleman seemed to be a free and easy person. It seemed that he didn't care about other people's opinions.

Wei Yunlan held Xiao Jiarong in his arms and fed her the rice milk in the bowl bit by bit. Yesterday, he also fed her some goat milk, but that stuff is not easy to store. Now he can say that he brought it from Beijing, but it will be difficult to explain the origin after two days. It would be best to find a way to buy some fresh cow and goat milk to cover up.

If there was really no other way, she had to avoid other people's sight and feed it to Xiao Jiarong secretly.

"Yunlan, let me hold the child for a while. You should have breakfast soon." Cheng Yue'e took Jiarong over. She had some strength today and although she couldn't help with other things, it was not a problem for her to hold the child for a while.

What's more, she, as a mother, really misses her child very much after not seeing him for a day.

Wei Yunlan's arms were empty, so he took the rice porridge that Ningshuang brought to him.

Just as I was about to scoop a mouthful and put it into my mouth, I heard a loud "bang" coming from outside.

It sounded like the sound of bowls and pans being smashed.

"Miss, please eat first. I'll go see what's going on." Tingxue had just rushed out of the room when she heard shouting from downstairs.

Now there is no need to ask, you can hear it clearly in the house.

"Who are you calling a thief?"

"A servant dares to scold his master. Oh my God, this is really lawless!"

The cursing voice sounded very familiar, who else could it be but Old Lady Feng?

She didn't know who the other person she was facing was. Thinking of the Bai family members who lived in the same dormitory with Old Lady Feng, Wei Yunlan couldn't help feeling a little worried.

He finished the porridge in a few gulps and was about to go out to take a look when he ran into Tingxue who had come back from outside.

"Miss, what do you think is going on?"

Several pairs of eyes in the room fell on Tingxue.

When Wei Yunlan heard her tone, she knew that it was definitely not Madam Bai and the others who were in trouble. "I won't guess, you tell me."

"Miss, why don't you cooperate with me?" Tingxue glanced at Wei Yunlan in a reproachful manner, and then continued to keep it a secret, "Mrs. Feng scolded the maidservant beside Madam Liang!"

Wei Yunlan raised an eyebrow, "Did the Liang family's children steal Madam Liang's things?"

"Miss, you are really a prophet!"

It's not that amazing. After all, Mrs. Feng mentioned the word "thief" just now. If you think about the bad behavior of the Feng family's children, it's not difficult to guess...

"Tell me, what did you steal?" Wei Yunlan had no interest in the Feng family, but was somewhat concerned about the Liang family.

"I stole two bowls of chicken noodle soup and a bowl of blood bird's nest!"

"Blood swallow?"

Chicken noodle soup would be fine, but they even ate blood bird's nest on the way to exile. The Liang family is really not afraid of others finding out that there is something fishy going on.

Thinking of this, Wei Yunlan's expression suddenly froze.

Yes, why isn’t the Liang family afraid?

Was this how the families got along during their exile in the previous life?

She didn't know whether the Feng family and the Bai family could see that something was wrong with the Liang family. But with her mother's intuition and her father's insight from working in the Censorate for many years, they would definitely notice something strange.

If this is true, then were the accidents that occurred frequently on the road to exile in the previous life really accidents?

Wei Yunlan didn't dare to think too much about it. She only felt that the reality was far more terrifying than what she had heard in the backyard of the Marquis' Mansion in her previous life.

She originally thought that if she stocked up more supplies and hired a team of guards from Tianshu Pavilion, she would be safe.

Now it seems that this may not be the case. This huge group of exiles is itself a huge hidden danger!

The shouting and cursing outside became more and more intense. At first, only Old Lady Feng's voice was heard. Later, perhaps because she was getting angry from the scolding, the maids from the Liang family also raised their voices.

"What are you yelling about, you old hag? Do you think that by making a scene here you can cover up the fact that your grandsons are thieves?"

"Who is the thief?" Old Madam Feng refused to give in: "You little bitch, keep your mouth shut!"

"Your grandson is a thief!"

The maid said angrily: "They took away the chicken noodle soup and bird's nest that I just cooked. If you don't believe me, look, there is still greasy liquid on their mouths!"

It is true.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Old Mrs. Feng didn't even have time to wipe her grandson's mouth to cover up the traces.

After all, more than one grandson had grease at the corners of his mouth. All eight of his older grandsons had more or less grease at the corners of their mouths.

Being exposed on the spot, the Feng family felt a little embarrassed.

Lord Feng, who had been acting as an invisible man, also came out at this time.

"It's all Feng's fault for failing to discipline me!"

He personally apologized to the Liang family's maid, and then went upstairs to apologize to Lord Liang and Madam Liang.

With her gentle and polite appearance, she didn't want the maid to dwell on what happened just now. She just shook her head and sighed behind her back, "How could a gentleman like Lord Feng have such a vulgar mother?"

A farce comes and goes quickly.

No one heard how Lord Feng apologized to Lord Liang. They only saw that when they set off again, the Liang family was still the first to walk in front, ignoring the other three families.

Lord Feng's three younger brothers kept the boys in the family tightly behind them to prevent them from provoke the Liang family's team.

Those naughty children followed the adults obediently, which allowed the people behind them to finally see clearly.

"His family is really prosperous." Nanny Wang beside Gao couldn't help but sigh.

The rest of the families in this team are all made up of half masters and half servants, and there are even more servants than masters.

Only the Feng family looked on coldly as they saw that all of them were their own family members without any servants serving them. But even so, the number of people in their family was still much larger than that of the Bai and Wei families!

"What's the use of having a large family? We still need to educate them well." Gao shook her head and whispered.

The eldest grandson of the Feng family looked about the same age as Mingxuan, but his behavior and conduct seemed much worse than his. It wasn't that Gao was exaggerating, but anyone with a discerning eye in the group could see it.

See, seeing that his elders were restraining him from going forward, the eldest grandson of the Feng family turned his head and looked back a few times, his eyes rolling around, and I wonder what evil ideas he was up to.

Not long after, I heard a sudden burst of crying from the front.

Wei Yunlan stood on tiptoe to look forward, and the one who was made to cry was actually the girl from the Bai family who was younger than Jiayan.

The incident happened suddenly. Before the adults could react, a figure like a small firecracker jumped out from beside the eldest lady of the Bai family, raised a wooden stick and hit the eldest grandson of the Feng family on the leg with a "bang".

"You'll be punished for bullying Tongtong! You deserve a beating!"
