It’s a pity that Shen’s mother and daughter didn’t know that even the Empress Dowager, who was the mother of the country in the palace, had never obtained these five treasures, otherwise such a large number would not have fallen into the hands of Prince Yu.
Feng Yuheng also searched the original owner's memory and found out the value of these five items. She could only sigh that the man's hand was so large that even she was almost stunned.
But since the other party was willing to give it, she had no reason to refuse. She just smiled at Madam Zhou and said, "Madam Lao, thank His Royal Highness the Prince on my behalf. Ah Heng likes these gifts very much."
The Feng family rolled their eyes. They just liked it? Did Feng Yuheng know what these things meant? This meant that she was simply the happiest woman in the world!
Feng Fendai burst into tears with a loud "wow". How could a girl of only ten years old withstand such stimulation? She cried with tears and snot, looking so aggrieved!
Han was too embarrassed to hold her face. Wasn't she embarrassed enough? She was actually crying?
She was so angry that she pinched Fendai secretly, which made Fendai cry even louder.
Xiangrong was right next to Fendai, and seeing her in such a state was really embarrassing, she gritted her teeth and advised, "Fourth sister, please stop crying. Everyone is watching us."
How could Fendai listen to her? Not only did she not stop crying, she also cried and said, "I want Guanghan silk, and I want Ruanyanluo too! Woo, I want all of those things!"
Feng Jinyuan was so angry that he yelled, "How dare you!" Feng Fendai was so frightened that she almost fainted.
Feng Yuheng was so happy watching this farce! Then he looked at Feng Chenyu biting her lower lip and decided to make things worse for her. "Fourth sister, please stop crying." He explained to Madam Zhou, "Madam, please don't blame me. My fourth sister is young."
Mrs. Zhou naturally would not argue with a ten-year-old child. She just smiled and shook her head to indicate that it was okay.
Feng Yuheng said again: "Don't worry, Fourth Sister, when I use these materials to make clothes in the future, if there is any leftover, at least I can make a handkerchief for you to play with."
Although the handkerchief is small, if it is made of one of these five treasures, it will be an amazing thing.
As soon as she said this, not only did Fendai stop crying, but even Han's charming smile returned to her face.
"Is what Second Sister said true?" Fendai asked anxiously.
Feng Yuheng nodded, "Of course it's true. You and Xiangrong are younger sisters, and when an elder sister has good things, she will naturally share them with her younger sisters. I think the elder sister is the same, she won't fight with the younger sisters for things, right?"
She changed the subject and pulled Feng Chenyu in.
Feng Chenyu's crazy emotions, which had just been suppressed by the belief in the mother of the country, almost surged up again. Fortunately, the self-cultivation and patience she had practiced hard over the years were not in vain. She stopped her greed and adjusted herself for a long time before she replied with two words in a distorted voice: "Of course."
Xiangrong's eyes lit up, and she asked like Fendai: "Second sister, will you do it for me too?"
When Feng Yuheng looked at her, there was some sincerity in her eyes: "Sisters, each of you has a handkerchief, okay?"
"Xiangrong thanks my second sister!" Xiangrong bowed down, extremely happy.
Fen Dai naturally followed suit to express her gratitude, and even An and Han thanked Feng Yuheng.
After the Feng family members finished their greetings, Madam Zhou gave the last gift to Feng Yuheng.
This time, two maids came in from outside the courtyard. They looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. They had no makeup on their faces and were pure and pretty, which made people feel comfortable just by looking at them.
Madam Zhou said, "These are the two maids personally selected by His Royal Highness the Prince, and sent here to serve the Second Miss." As she spoke, she took two slips from the little maid beside her, "These are their indentures. Second Miss, remember, in the future, only use those whose indentures you have in your hands, so that you can rest assured."
This was Madam Zhou's advice to Feng Yuheng, and it also taught her her first real lesson about ancient life. It was from this time that Feng Yuheng realized the importance of selling one's body in this era, and mastering the selling of one's body indenture became her first criterion for employing people in the future.
Mrs. Zhou's trip was now complete. Feng Jinyuan politely invited her to stay for a banquet, but Mrs. Zhou refused. Before leaving, she took Feng Yuheng's hand and whispered, "If you have anything to do, you can go to Xianya Tower on West Street in the city. That's where His Highness is."
Feng Yuheng nodded in agreement and expressed his gratitude to Madam Zhou once again.
After finally sending everyone from Prince Yu's Mansion away, the people in Feng Mansion finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This day was so exciting!
Old Mrs. Feng felt that not only her waist was in trouble, but her heart wasn't feeling well either. Her heart was beating so fast it seemed like it was about to jump out of her throat.
She looked at Feng Yuheng, wanting to say something, but suddenly she didn't know how to talk to her.
The red silk wooden boxes all over the yard and the two maids standing beside Feng Yuheng were reminding her that this granddaughter could no longer be treated the same way as before. Not only this granddaughter, but even Yao Shi could no longer treat her as a concubine who was driven out of the house.
The old lady realized it later, and realized that she had made a big mistake in hastily attacking Yao because she was afraid that the Feng Mansion would be implicated. Now the situation has changed, and the other person's daughter is so successful, where can she, as a grandmother, put her face?
With this thought, Shen Shi standing in front of her was even less pleasing to her eyes. Although she still had the jade beads given by Shen Shi in her hand, this string of beads was simply unbearable compared to what the King Yu gave Feng Yuheng.
Unfortunately, Shen didn't realize that the old lady and her husband were both annoyed with her because of this incident. She twisted her round body and moved forward a few steps, looking left and right at the boxes on the ground. Finally, when she saw the first few shabby betrothal gifts sent in, which were specifically for the Feng Mansion, she snorted coldly and said, "What are you proud of! You just married a cripple."
Feng Jinyuan shouted angrily: "Shut up!"
The old lady was so angry that she simply closed her eyes and shouted: "This is not up to par! This is absolutely not up to par!"
Shen was furious like a deflated ball, but she couldn't say anything to or offend either her husband or her mother-in-law, so she had no choice but to turn her anger into glares at Feng Yuheng.
Unfortunately, with a poor memory like her, how could she possibly remember all the things that had happened since Feng Yuheng returned home, and which round had she gotten any advantage?
The same happens this time!
Facing Shen's sharp and malicious gaze, Feng Yuheng was neither annoyed nor angry, but leaned towards her. When she stood up again, she said very seriously: "Mother's teaching is very correct. Please rest assured that Ah Heng will remember to tell you about your evaluation of His Royal Highness the Prince." After that, she said to the two new maids beside her: "Remember to remind me, don't forget."
The two maids raised their clear voices and said in unison: "Please rest assured, Miss, I will keep this in mind."
"Ah Heng!" Feng Jinyuan looked at Feng Yuheng helplessly, unsure of what attitude to use to talk to her.
Feng Yuheng didn't give him time to think and changed the subject directly: "Father, do you think we should ask the servants to move these things back to Liuyuan first?" As he spoke, he looked embarrassed: "I guess Liuyuan can't put them in."
Feng Jinyuan felt that he finally had a chance to show off: "Ah Heng, take a look at which courtyard in the mansion you like, and I will arrange it for you."
At this time, one of the two maids sent by the Prince Yu's Mansion spoke up: "Second Miss, can you take a look at the house that the prince sent first? I heard that it is next to the Feng Mansion."
As soon as these words came out, Feng Jinyuan understood instantly, "But is it the empty house of the old prince on the north side?"
Next to the north wall of Feng Mansion, there is a house that has been empty for many years. The house was originally given by the previous emperor to the then King Yi Zi Ping Jian, but unfortunately the old prince had no children, and after his death, the house became empty. Unexpectedly, it has fallen into the hands of the Ninth Prince.
Feng Jinyuan smiled bitterly, "That house is only separated from the Feng Mansion by a wall, and that wall happens to be the one at the edge of the Willow Garden. If the house that the prince gave is that one... Ah Heng, your father can send someone to demolish that wall and connect it directly to the Willow Garden."
The girl who had spoken before bowed to Feng Jinyuan and replied neither servilely nor arrogantly: "It is the one that the Prime Minister mentioned."
Feng Jinyuan sighed inwardly. Back then, the King Yi Zi Bing Xiang was a very low-key person. Because he had no children or women in his family, and he never liked to show off, his mansion was not big, and it was not much bigger than the Shuya Garden where the old lady lived now. But the house was decorated very uniquely, with small bridges, flowing water, and lotus leaves in the pond, which brought the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River into the northern mansion.
In fact, he had thought about the house, because he thought that such a courtyard was worthy of his proudest daughter, Chenyu. But after asking around, he still didn't know who the house belonged to. A minister told him that he was afraid that King Yizi Bingxiang would return the house to the emperor, and he couldn't ask the emperor for the courtyard, so he had to give up.
Unexpectedly, the house eventually fell into the hands of the Feng family, but the person living there was not Chenyu, but Ah Heng.
He looked at Feng Yuheng. His frail body seemed like it would fall down if the wind blew, but his face was filled with an indescribable firmness. His big eyes were inexplicably smart, making him almost dare not look at him, as he felt that he could be seen through by him if he looked at him.
Feng Jinyuan clearly remembered that he had loved this daughter sincerely. But this love was so insignificant in front of the family's interests.
"Father, there is no need to go to great lengths." Feng Yuheng said calmly, "Just open a moon gate on the north wall of Liuyuan."
In one sentence, it was clear that she didn't want to be connected with the Feng Mansion at all. She would open a small door, but when she got married in the future, she would block that small door in a minute.
Feng Jinyuan just felt exhausted, waved his hand casually, and said helplessly: "In that case, it's up to you. Butler He!"
He Zhong came as soon as he was called.
"Tell someone to move the second young lady's betrothal gifts to Liuyuan first, and send craftsmen to build a moon gate on the north wall. It must be completed before tonight."
He Zhong took the order and left.
