The old lady was somewhat at a loss, and looked at Kang Yi in a hurry. Kang Yi, however, had regained his proper demeanor, and walked forward gracefully, personally helping the Cheng sisters up, "Please stand up quickly, my two sisters. Since you have entered the Feng family, we are a family from now on."
The Cheng sisters were helped to stand up. They both took a half step back and bowed again: "I pay my respects to the Madam."
Kang Yi smiled calmly and generously, "Okay, my two sisters are young and beautiful, and they are well-educated and well-mannered. With you two serving by the master's side, the old lady and I will feel relieved."
When the old lady saw Kang Yi's opinion, she quickly said, "Yes, yes! We are lucky to have two of them..." She didn't know what to call these two people. Call them princesses, but they are not princesses. What should she do if she is not the niece of the Queen Mother and has been raised in the palace for nearly ten years?
Cheng Junman, who was pretty, was the elder sister. Seeing the old lady hesitate, she smiled elegantly and took the initiative to speak: "Junman and my sister Junmei are concubines. We don't have the blessing to call the old lady mother, but we are very close to her in our hearts. If the old lady doesn't mind, please call us by our maiden names."
Cheng Junman spoke slowly and leisurely, with a very pleasant voice. Because she grew up in the palace, she also had the same noble temperament as Kang Yi, but she was younger than Kang Yi. She seemed to have a more moderate and peaceful aura, which made people feel pity and goodwill when they saw her, even the old lady was no exception--"Good, good! Junman, Junmei."
“Hahahaha!” Xuan Tianming laughed loudly, “The Feng family has had many happy events. The old lady is so happy. I will report this to my father when I return to the palace.”
Feng Yuheng also leaned on the wheelchair handle and smiled, "The Queen is such a nice person. Since she is a new niece, she must be good." She suddenly became very happy and even jumped up, grabbing Xuan Tianming's arm and said, "Xuan Tianming, that's great! They are relatives of the Queen, they will definitely not bully me!"
Xuan Tianming pinched her cheek lovingly, "Yes, I will definitely not bully you." He pinched her twice more, "Why are you thinner again? Isn't the Feng family so poor that they don't even let you eat meat? Didn't I give you a lot of silver? Why don't you spend it yourself?"
"I eat by myself." Feng Yuheng reminded him, "I live in Tongshengxuan, and all the food and food I use is paid for by the money you give me. Oh, and the county lady's salary."
"Hmm?" Xuan Tianming sensed something was wrong. "If you don't eat with them, then did they give you money?"
Feng Yuheng shook his head, "No."
"This is what you did wrong!" Xuan Tianming suddenly looked at everyone in the Feng family again, "You can't refuse to give her money just because she doesn't want it. We are both daughters of the Feng family, and Hengheng is a legitimate daughter. I don't ask you to give her more than concubines, I just ask you to treat her equally. But why..."
"Your Highness," Kang Yi said quickly, "Your Highness has misunderstood. Although I have just entered the mansion, I heard my mother talk about this matter yesterday. My mother said that although the county lady does not eat and use with us, her share is still converted into silver and kept, and the county lady can use it at any time."
"Oh." Xuan Tianming nodded, "That's good." Then he stopped looking at her and turned to Feng Yuheng: "You should be smarter. Don't be so silly and smile at everyone you see. You don't even know that you are being tricked. Okay, I should go back. If you have anything, come to Prince Yu's Mansion to find me."
"Okay." Feng Yuheng nodded and personally pushed Xuan Tianming out of the house.
It was not until everyone saw Xuan Tianming get on the carriage that they collectively breathed a sigh of relief. The old lady leaned on Aunt Zhao, unable to exert any strength, but still hurriedly ordered Fendai and the servants: "Quick! Help Han go back to rest, and ask a doctor to take care of the pregnancy, hurry up!"
Fendai also knew that this was not something that could be delayed. Han was too fragile and the ground was cold, and her complexion was not very good. Although she wanted to stay here and continue watching the show, she knew how to weigh the pros and cons. The world was big, but Han's belly was the biggest, so they had to go back.
She stamped her feet and reluctantly helped Han to leave. At this time, Feng Yuheng also walked back from the gate of the mansion. The old lady and Kang Yi looked at the little figure walking towards them, and for a moment they didn't know how to talk to her. However, the two sisters of the Cheng family reacted first, and walked forward quickly, and walked straight to Feng Yuheng--"I meet the county lady."
Feng Yuheng smiled and said, "You are my father's concubine and the niece of the Queen, so you don't have to be polite when you see me. From now on, since you have entered the Feng family, you must take good care of your father and assist your grandmother and mother with all your strength. In a few days, I will concentrate on steelmaking, so you have to take care of the affairs of the mansion."
The two men said in unison: "We will obey the county magistrate's instructions."
As soon as these words were spoken, Kang Yi and Chen Yu looked at each other subconsciously, and both saw vigilance in each other's eyes.
The Feng family suddenly had two more concubines, and they were really in a mess for a while. Feng Jinyuan had not returned from court today, so the old lady thought about it and decided to vacate Jinfuyuan, which was originally intended for Ru Jia, and give it to Jun Man. She also ordered people to clean up Riyuexuan, which was closest to Jinfuyuan, and make sure Jun Mei could move in before tonight.
The courtyards were designated by the old lady, and Kang Yi personally directed the servants to carefully take care of the two courtyards. The new sister simply accompanied the old lady in Shuya Garden to chat, and they chatted for a whole day, even having lunch together. When the two courtyards were cleaned up and Kang Yi rushed to Shuya Garden to report, the old lady had already become very familiar with the two concubines, and was especially interested in the palace gossip that the two told her when they were free.
The old lady has always believed in the palace. In her eyes, the palace is the most sacred place in the world. Although she has been there before, and she has participated in many palace banquets in the past, the more she goes, the more she feels that the most prestigious people in the whole Dashun live in the palace. The power of the emperor and the beauty of the queen are supreme to her. However, the Feng family has no roots in the capital, so it is extremely difficult to hear facts about the palace on weekdays. She never expected that one day someone from the palace would come out to be her daughter-in-law!
Yes, the old lady already regarded these two concubines as important as Kang Yi. She was not stupid. The emperor sent them to the mansion because he was the spy planted in the Feng family. They could not be beaten, scolded, or neglected. Otherwise, if they were not careful, these two people would pass on the message, and Feng Jinyuan would be in trouble.
Kang Yi understood people's psychology too well. As soon as she saw this scene, she knew that the old lady had chosen to accept and compromise. What else could she say? After all, this was Dashun. These two were sent by the emperor and were the nieces of the queen. She could not fight against anyone but the royal family. She thought she didn't have the ability to do so, at least not yet.
"Mother." She walked closer with a smile on her face. "My daughter-in-law has already personally brought the servants to clean up the two courtyards. I thought I would take my two sisters over to have a look. If there is anything they are not satisfied with, I can ask them to make changes. It is almost dark now, and I believe my sisters must be tired."
The old lady nodded and said, "You are doing a good job. I am relieved." Then she said to the two sisters, "Go and have a look."
Jun Man and Jun Mei stood up, bowed to the old lady and left, followed Kang Yi and left Shuya Garden. The old lady let out a sigh of relief only after the three of them left. While directing the little girl to massage her shoulders, she asked Zhao Mama, "Did you send anyone to the palace to inquire about the news?"
Zhao Ma said, "Two groups of people have been sent out. They said that the court is busy today. Not only our master, but all the ministers are in the palace. Madam, please rest assured."
When she heard that all the ministers were in the palace, the old lady was relieved. "I'm glad he's okay. I've been feeling uneasy these days, and I guessed that nothing good would happen. I didn't expect the Ninth Prince to come to my house so soon."
Aunt Zhao advised her: "It seems that the Ninth Prince is interested in the new wife, so he is quite polite to you, old lady."
The old lady understood this, but she felt extremely sad whenever she heard that Kang Yi was blackmailed for five million taels of gold. "That's gold! Five million taels, how many trucks would it take to transport it from Qianzhou to Dashun? How long would the team be? Alas! Just giving it to the county lord's mansion like this, it's really... really..."
She really didn't understand after a long time. Aunt Zhao couldn't help curling her lips, thinking, could it be that you are still thinking about it, old lady? Is that something you can think about? It's a blessing that the Ninth Prince doesn't make trouble for you, so be content!
But the old lady was just that kind of person. She would never be satisfied when it came to money. When Huang Liangdu was still in Qianzhou, she had already begun to think about being nicer to Feng Yuheng, maybe she could get some benefits.
"Oh, right." The old lady suddenly remembered something, "Hurry up, go to the Buddhist temple and move a statue of Guanyin to the Magnolia Courtyard. Don't let Han make trouble again. It's okay that she robbed Kang Yi last night. Although Kang Yi is the eldest princess, she is from a foreign country after all. She has no roots, power or support in Dashun. But Jun Man and Jun Mei are people arranged by the emperor. If they offend these two, the Feng family will not be able to bear it."
Zhao Ma Ma quickly responded, "Don't worry, old lady. I will go to Yulan Courtyard right away. Not only will I send Guanyin off, but I will also give some advice to Aunt Han."
"Okay." The old lady urged, "Go quickly."
Just as Aunt Zhao was heading to the Buddhist temple, Feng Jinyuan hurried back. The first thing he did when he returned home was to see the old lady. After entering the house, he didn't even bother to greet her, and asked anxiously, "Have you seen the mother of those two?"
The old lady sighed, nodded and said, "I have seen it. I have placed it in Jinfuyuan and Riyuexuan. Tonight you..."
"My son must stay at Tianxiangyuan tonight." Feng Jinyuan's attitude was very firm. "My son drank too much yesterday and didn't think many things through, so he stayed at Yulanyuan in a daze. This is really not decent. No matter what, I have to go to Tianxiangyuan tonight. First, I have to give an explanation to Kang Yi, and second,..." He paused, thought for a while, and then said, "Mother has also seen that the emperor and the queen have joined forces to send two concubines to our house. This is obviously a threat to our Feng family. To be honest, my son is a little confused, and this confusion can only be sorted out by a clear and sensible person like Kang Yi."
The old lady nodded, somewhat flustered, "You mean, the emperor is wary of our Feng family because Kang Yi came to the palace? That's not right. When you wanted to marry Kang Yi, didn't you say that the emperor had to thank us?"
Feng Jinyuan stamped his feet, "To be with the emperor is like being with a tiger. My son helped Dashun out of trouble and stopped the marriage between Qianzhou and Gushu, but I didn't expect that the emperor would now be on guard against the Feng family. Mother, please don't worry. We need to observe this matter for a while. There have been many changes in the mansion recently, and I am really sorry for causing you so much trouble."
"It's okay." The old lady waved her hand, "Just keep it in mind. At least you should meet the two concubines today. Don't leave them alone."
"Son, I understand. I'll go now." He said, and without staying any longer, he turned and left. Before he could even cross the threshold, someone suddenly rushed in from outside and bumped into his arms... The Divine Doctor's Daughter
