The old lady glanced around calmly, and her eyes finally stopped on Feng Hengzhi.
With a serious face, she said in a clear voice, "Zhi'er, Grandmother knows that you are usually busy with state affairs and don't spend much time at home. When you return home, you should spend more time with Luan'er."
Feng Hengzhi glanced at Sang Luan nonchalantly.
Sang Luan just lowered her head silently, her eyes on her nose and her nose on her heart.
Feng Hengzhi snorted in his heart and silently withdrew his gaze.
He raised his eyes to look at the old lady sitting in the main seat and nodded slightly, "Okay, grandson will definitely remember grandma's teachings."
The old lady sighed and raised her hand, her tone faintly revealing a hint of dissatisfaction, "This is not teaching at all. You two have always lived your lives on your own, and your parents don't care about you at all."
She paused, "As for me, I can only bother you a little more now. In a few years, when I am buried in the ground and turned into ashes, you will be able to relax."
Feng Shinian frowned slightly, "Mom, why are you saying all this when there's nothing wrong?"
"Yes, Grandma." Sang Luan leaned forward slightly, a hint of worry between her eyebrows. "You are in good health and can live for many years."
The old lady pointed at Sang Luan and chuckled, "Girl, you really know how to make me happy."
Sang Luan smiled playfully, "Luan'er was just telling the truth, I wasn't trying to coax Grandma."
After saying this, the old lady smiled with satisfaction, "In this mansion, I can now talk to you, little girl, for a few more words."
Liu Wenxian on the side turned sideways, first looking at the old lady, then looking at Sang Luan who was smiling sweetly at the moment.
She couldn't help but frown. When did Sang Luan become so close to her mother?
The old lady looked serious and suddenly said, "Wen Xian."
When her name was suddenly called, Liu Wenxian stood up quickly.
He knelt slightly towards the old lady, "Mother."
The old lady stared straight ahead, not even glancing at Liu Wenxian. "I told you, both openly and covertly, a while ago to take Luan girl with you to familiarize yourself with the affairs of the mansion. At least let her know roughly how many people are here."
Her eyes suddenly fell on Liu Wenxian, and her voice was full of questioning, "What have you helped her learn in these days?"
Liu Wenxian's face was full of surprise.
Ever since she took charge of the affairs of the mansion, her mother rarely asked about them anymore.
Why are we gathering everyone together today with such fanfare? Is this the only reason?
Liu Wenxian calmed down a bit and said, "To answer mother, I haven't started yet. I'm planning to wait until Luan'er is more familiar with it, and then take her to see it."
The old lady lowered her eyelids slightly and nonchalantly picked up the teacup that the servants had prepared long ago.
She said calmly, "Really? Then how familiar are you going to be with her before taking her?"
Liu Wenxian raised her head slightly and spoke respectfully, "Luan'er really doesn't know the rules. If she were like other ladies from wealthy families, I wouldn't be so harsh on her. She..."
Before she finished speaking, the old lady's expression changed instantly.
The old lady slammed the teacup in her hand onto the table and looked coldly at Liu Wenxian below. "Alright, let's just assume Luan'er doesn't know the rules. Then let me ask you, when did I ask you to take her with me to familiarize herself with the affairs of the mansion?"
Liu Wenxian slowly lowered her head, not daring to say more.
She thought about it carefully, then spoke slowly, "There should be a..."
"You know it's been a while!" The old lady slammed the table, her face full of anger. "Why? Now that I'm not dead yet, you're so impatient to test me?"
She stood up suddenly and kept knocking the cane on the ground. "Don't be so anxious. If I'm gone by then, this house will naturally be yours!"
Everyone could hear the hidden meaning in her words.
Liu Wenxian subconsciously looked at Feng Shinian beside her.
Unexpectedly, this glance happened to fall into the eyes of the old lady.
The old lady's expression grew even colder, and she said in a cold voice, "Why are you looking at him? What? Are you afraid that I will bully you?"
Feng Shinian slightly turned sideways and gave Liu Wenxian a silent look.
Liu Wenxian pursed her lips, walked slowly forward, and walked to Liu Wenxian's side.
She bent down slightly and was about to pick up the teacup on the table.
The old lady snorted coldly and waved her hand, just touching Liu Wenxian's arm.
Liu Wenxian slipped and fell to the ground in an instant.
She supported herself on the ground with her hands, stood up quickly, and wanted to move forward. However, when her eyes fell on the old lady, she hesitated.
"I think you don't take me seriously!"
The old lady continued to speak in a cold voice.
In an instant, everyone stood up at the same time.
Feng Shinian: "Mother, Luan'er is indeed unruly. It won't be too late for her to follow Xian'er after some time."
Liu Wenxian quickly spoke up and shook her head, "It was me who didn't obey Mother's wishes. Starting tomorrow, Luan'er will follow me and learn about the affairs of the mansion."
After she finished speaking, the old lady's expression gradually relaxed.
She once again glanced at the people around her and said, "Be clear about what you should do."
After a while, the old lady was helped away.
The front garden suddenly became quiet.
Liu Wenxian slowly straightened up, her eyes flashing slightly.
Feng Shinian sighed, "Don't worry, mother didn't mean any harm. She wasn't targeting you."
Liu Wenxian hummed softly and looked up at Feng Shinian. "I know, but I don't understand. Mother has always turned a blind eye to matters in the mansion. Why did she suddenly get so angry today?"
Her eyes were fixed on Feng Shinian.
Feng Shinian paused, "You mean..."
They both turned to look at Sang Luan at the same time.
"I don't care what you looked like before. Now that you've entered my Feng family," Feng Shinian said in a cold voice, "Xian'er is your mother. Look at you, you only know how to make her angry all day long."
He pointed at Sang Luan and said, "You better reflect on this!"
Sang Luan blinked, looking innocent.
Did she speak just now?
Liu Wenxian glanced inadvertently, and her eyes suddenly fell on Sang Luan's wrist.
Suddenly, she stopped and looked stunned.
She stared at Sang Luan's wrist.
She slowly stepped forward and grabbed Sang Luan's wrist, her eyes filled with disbelief, "Where did you come from?"
Sang Luan held her breath and pulled her wrist back, "My grandmother gave it to me."
Seeing that her expression seemed a little strange, Feng Shinian stepped forward and put his hands on Liu Wenxian's shoulders, "What's wrong with you?"
Liu Wenxian was stunned for a moment, and after a few moments of silence, she finally reacted.
She smiled at Feng Shinian, "Nothing?"
Her smile was forced. Feng Shinian followed her gaze and saw the jade bracelet at a glance.
"Do you like it?" Feng Shinian asked tentatively.
Seeing that Liu Wenxian didn't say anything, she turned to look at Sang Luan and ordered, "What are you still standing there for? Can't you see that your mother likes it? Why don't you take it down and give it to your mother?"
