When the old lady heard this, she was so angry that she asked, "You want to marry Chenyu?"
Shen Qing answered solemnly: "That's right. Om, I hope the old lady will help me with this book."
"I want you to help me?" The old lady pointed her finger at him. "Tell me! What is your purpose in coming to my Feng Mansion?"
Shen Qing was stunned and answered stupidly: "Of course I am preparing for the exam."
"Since you are preparing for the exam, why do you want to ask for marriage?" The old lady became more and more angry. "Jin Yuan was looking forward to your success, but he didn't know that you were thinking about this matter between men and women. It's really a waste of his cultivation of you in the early years."
"This..." Shen Qing realized that he was too reckless after hearing what the old lady said. But when he thought about what Fendai said and how Chenyu wiped her tears in front of him a few days ago, he couldn't control his heart and mouth, and couldn't help but say: "Shen Qing has always been devoted to seeking fame and fortune, and his feelings for cousin Chenyu have never changed over the years. When my aunt was alive, she refused several times, and Shen Qing had given up on her. But this time when I came to Feng Mansion, I saw the situation of cousin Chenyu in the mansion and I couldn't bear it. I only hope that the old lady can marry my cousin to Shen Qing, and Shen Qing will definitely protect her for the rest of her life."
The old lady also remembered that she seemed to have heard that Shen Qing proposed to Chen Yu, but at that time Feng Jinyuan and Shen Shi wanted to keep Chen Yu as the queen in the future, so how could they be interested in Shen Qing. Now, Chen Yu is paired with Shen Qing, which is not wronged. It's just that she hates the people of the Shen family from the bottom of her heart, and she has made up her mind to never have any contact with them in this life. If it weren't for Feng Jinyuan's insistence, she would never stay in the mansion.
"No." The old lady shook her head firmly. "My Feng family and your Shen family have long severed ties. When Shen was alive, she had clearly rejected you. Now that she is gone, the Feng family will not marry Chenyu to you. Don't mention this matter again."
"But..." Shen Qing was anxious, "My cousin was wronged in the mansion, and the old lady couldn't make a decision for her. Why can't she help Shen Qing? And Shen Qing believes that cousin Chenyu has feelings for me... She is not without affection."
"Master Shen, you can't say such things!" Aunt Zhao was also annoyed. "If you pass the imperial examination in the future, you will be a disciple of the emperor. How can you be so ignorant of etiquette and ruin the reputation of our eldest lady?"
The old lady groaned and said, "People from the Shen family are just like this."
Shen Qing's face turned red after being scolded by the two of them. He knew that he had said the wrong thing, but he was tongue-tied when he got anxious, so there was no way he could win an argument over the old lady and Aunt Zhao.
While she was feeling aggrieved, she heard the old lady say, "Besides, who told you that I can't make the decision for Chenyu? Who told you that Chenyu was wronged in the mansion? You are talking nonsense here as a guest. How can you be qualified to participate in the palace examination next spring with such behavior?" She became more and more excited, "My second granddaughter is a county princess, and she also calls the current emperor father. It seems that I should let Ah Heng go to the palace and tell them to put your name on the list. You don't have to participate in the palace examination next year!"
"No! Old lady, this is not allowed!" Shen Qing was really anxious this time. He had seen and met the second young lady of the Feng family who was the county lord. She was sharp-tongued and a very determined person. She would never give in. Even his uncle Feng Jinyuan could not get the upper hand in front of her. If she really went to the palace and said that, wouldn't his ten years of hard study be in vain?
In just a moment, the old lady scared away his thoughts of marrying Chenyu. Shen Qing bowed deeply to the old lady and said repeatedly: "Shen Qing is a junior, and I lost my sense of propriety when I spoke. I hope the old lady will not be offended. What I said before is absolutely not allowed!"
"Humph!" Seeing that he was frightened, the old lady finally breathed a sigh of relief, but then asked, "What place did you take in the autumn examination?"
Shen Qing replied: "Fifth in the provincial examination."
"Fifth... is not a very good ranking either." The old lady said this leisurely, and Zhao Ma couldn't help curling her lips. Fifth is not good? The whole Dashun is. But the old lady was obviously just saying it casually, and she didn't mean it. She said again: "The palace examination will be held in the spring. You came too early. Are you going to spend the New Year in Feng Mansion?"
Shen Qing didn't know how to answer this. He originally wanted to spend the New Year in Feng Mansion, but after hearing what the old lady said, he felt a little embarrassed. His aunt was no longer alive, and Chenyu was just a concubine's daughter now. It was not reasonable for him to live in the mansion again. But now that he was here, could he move out?
Fortunately, the old lady still knew to take Feng Jinyuan's face into consideration, and only said: "Since you are here, I can't chase you away, but the Feng family's inner courtyard is full of women after all, and Jinyuan is not in Beijing now. It is really against the rules for you, a man, to hang around in the inner courtyard all day."
Shen Qing agreed with this point. He didn't want to stay in the inner courtyard, especially with that Han. Every time they met, she would flirt with him and make him feel uncomfortable.
"What the old lady meant was..."
"Let Butler He arrange for you to stay in the guest room in the outer courtyard. You don't have to come to greet me. Just focus on studying and preparing for the exam, and stop thinking about useless things. You are not allowed to enter the inner courtyard without notification."
"Yes, Shen Qing has made note of it. Please rest assured, Madam."
"Yes." The old lady nodded, "Then you can go back and pack up. I'll let the maid take you there." As she said that, she glanced at a maid beside her. The maid immediately understood and stepped forward to smile at Shen Qing: "Young Master Shen, please come in!"
He had always called him Young Master, but now he just called him Young Master of the Shen Family in a strange way. Shen Qing understood that the relationship between the Feng Family and the Shen Family was really severed.
He failed to marry Chenyu, and he was still holding back his anger until he had already left Shuya Garden with the girl. He kicked the stones scattered on the ground, which frightened the girl who was accompanying him. Looking at Shen Qing again, his face was red as if it could ooze blood, and his eyes were full of anger, which looked very scary.
The little girl was startled and quickened her pace, thinking only of finishing the task quickly so that she could report to the old lady. This young master of the Shen family might have some resentment in his heart and might explode at any time.
Shen Qing was almost driven out of Shuya Garden and sent to live in the outer courtyard. Within an hour, the news reached Feng Fendai.
Pei'er has been involved in a lot of trouble following Fendai, and although she doesn't have much power, there are still a few people in the mansion who can tip off her.
After hearing what Pei'er had said, Fendai was so angry that her face turned blue. She couldn't help but scold him even in front of the Buddha statue: "What a useless thing! I told him to hate Feng Yuheng, but he didn't bother Feng Yuheng, but went to ask for marriage from my grandmother. It turns out that all the scholars are fools! Trash!"
Pei'er quickly covered Fendai's mouth and said, "Miss, please keep your voice down. I just saw the maids of the two old ladies outside come back and are standing guard outside the door. He Qiancheng must not let them hear."
Fendai naturally knew this, so she kept her mouth shut and just sulked in her heart, thinking about how to turn the situation around.
Feng Yuheng hadn't slept much for several days in order to treat Xuan Tianming's leg. After sending him away, he did take a nap, but woke up again at night.
Her stomach was empty and she wanted to ask someone to cook something for her, but she thought it was too much trouble, so she started a fire and cooked. By the time the meal was ready, she was too hungry.
After thinking about it, I simply entered the space and took out a pack of instant noodles from the drawer to eat.
Since returning to ancient times, she has rarely eaten this food. Although the things in this space will not become less, facing the pure natural green plant growth environment of ancient times, she would rather die than eat modern food with chemical pollution. But there are always some things that are very strange. You know it is unhealthy and you will feel sick if you eat too much, but you will miss it if you don't eat it for a long time. Instant noodles are one of them.
Feng Yuheng took some boiling water from the water dispenser in the space and soaked the noodles. Although the door of the operating room upstairs was closed, he could still smell the smell of disinfectant. ...
Perhaps it's because I've been in this space for too long, the smell has been lingering in my nose and hasn't gone away for a long time.
After quickly finishing a box of instant noodles, she walked out of the space. Just then, she heard footsteps outside. She called out, "Wangchuan."
The person outside quickly pushed the door open. Obviously, he didn't expect Feng Yuheng to wake up. He was slightly stunned, and then said, "I thought the young lady would sleep until dawn." Wang Chuan said as he walked forward, "Is the young lady hungry?"
How could Feng Yuheng be hungry? She quickly shook her head and said, "I'm not hungry, I just can't sleep. Get up and sit for a while. I have something to tell you."
When Wang Chuan heard that something was wrong, his expression immediately became serious, "Miss, are you worried about Prime Minister Feng? Do you want me to go over and take a look?"
"No." She shook her head. "Xuan Tianming will send someone to keep an eye on you. I just want you to go to Xiaozhou."
"Are you going to see the young master? Also, the young lady said last time that she wanted to bring the people over there."
"Yes." Feng Yuheng thought for a moment and continued, "Zi Rui must come and see it. By the way, bring the clothes that Aunt An made for him last time, and bring him some more small banknotes. In addition, bring Qingyu with you, and go to Baicaotang and ask Wang Lin to pick out someone who can take charge of the business and go to Xiaozhou together."
"Bringing so many people?" Qingyu was puzzled, and then thought again - "Miss, aren't you going to open Baicaotang in Xiaozhou?"
"That's right." Feng Yuheng nodded, "We are going to open a Baicaotang in Xiaozhou. You and Qingyu will choose the location, and we need to find out about the channels for medicinal materials. The person chosen by Wang Lin will stay there as the shopkeeper, and Qingyu can stay for a while. The girls will be sent to Baicaotang, and Le Yingtian will take care of the patients. In short, the Baicaotang in Xiaozhou can only be bigger than the one in the capital, not smaller."
Wangchuan didn't understand why Feng Yuheng suddenly wanted to open Baicaotang in Xiaozhou, but she knew that the young lady always did things in moderation. Since she wanted to open it, there must be a reason why she had to open it. So she nodded and said, "Then I will go and discuss it with Qingyu. If it's in time, we will leave tomorrow."
"You decide this for yourselves. Be careful on the road and be on guard. Don't make a fuss when you leave the city. The Third Prince has always been on guard against us. It would be bad if he sets an ambush on the road now. It's okay for you to escape alone, but Qingyu and that person will drag you down." Feng Yuheng felt that she was a bit like an old mother, but still believed that some necessary instructions must be given. "Remember, no matter what happens, saving your life is the most important thing. Any material possessions are not important compared to life. Even if the mission is not completed or messed up, as long as you are still alive, there is a possibility of making up for it, so I don't allow you to sacrifice your life privately, understand?"
Wang Chuan nodded vigorously. The concepts Feng Yuheng instilled in her always made her excited. People like them were always told to put the mission first and execute the orders immediately. Why did anyone care about their lives?
But Feng Yuheng cared about them, just like her family. She just wanted them to be alive. No matter how big a mistake they made, as long as they were alive, it was fine.
"Thank you, young lady." She said in a low voice, choking a little.
Feng Yuheng did not respond to her words, but suddenly shouted towards the door: "Who's outside?"
