The Fifth Prince's birth certificate and one million taels of silver notes were delivered to Feng Jinyuan in the evening of that day. After Feng Jinyuan held the one million taels of silver notes in his hand, the first thing he did was to go to the County Lord's Mansion to meet Feng Yuheng to exchange the land deed. Only in this way could he avoid being imprisoned in a few days. This matter must not be known to other people in the Feng family. He must exchange the land deed before Feng Yuheng came to guard the spirit at night.
Feng Yuheng was not surprised at all by Feng Jinyuan's arrival. She had just finished her meal and was playing with Zirui with Yao Xian. Zirui recited the military book to Yao Xian as if he was offering a treasure, and Yao Xian nodded repeatedly. He had to admire Feng Jinyuan's genetic genes in the acceptance and absorption of knowledge. If Zirui were to pursue a career in politics in the future, he would definitely be a top scholar.
When Feng Jinyuan arrived at Feng Yuheng's yard, the first person he saw was Feng Zirui. He missed this son very much and was ready to get closer to him, but then he saw Yao Xian again.
The Yao family had been away from Beijing for many years, and this was the first time he had seen Yao Xian in more than four years. Although he had known that Yao Xian had returned and was living in the county lord's mansion, seeing was believing, and this encounter made him subconsciously turn his head away.
Feng Jinyuan had always been a little afraid of his former father-in-law. In the past, the Feng family wanted to rely on the Yao family to establish a solid foundation in the capital, and he bowed and scraped everywhere. Later, when the Yao family failed, he finally stood up again, but he didn't expect that since Feng Yuheng came back, the emperor's attitude towards the Yao family has changed again and again, until now Yao Xian returned to the capital openly, and no imperial edict of punishment has been issued. He had already understood that there might be hidden reasons behind the Yao family's misfortune, and the Feng family was indeed too anxious.
Feng Jinyuan stood there in a daze, Feng Yuheng held Zirui in his arms and stared at him blankly, Yao Xianyi leaned back in a soft chair, drank tea and watched, plus Huangquan Wangchuan and Qingyu in the yard, Feng Jinyuan's scalp was numb and the hairs on his body stood up.
He knew that this was not a solution, so he simply said to Feng Yuheng: "Come with me into the house, I have something to tell you." After saying that, he walked towards Feng Yuheng's main house.
But just as she reached the main house door, she was stopped by an ordinary gatekeeper girl when she stretched out her hand to push the door. The girl was a little fat, but her eyes were quite big. She stared at Feng Jinyuan and asked in confusion: "What are you going to do? What is your intention for a grown man to push my lady's door?"
Feng Jinyuan was so angry that his face turned blue——"I am your young lady's father!"
The girl was a newcomer and had never seen Feng Jinyuan before. How could she know that this was her father? So she replied rudely, "Do you have any evidence to prove it?"
"Huh?" Feng Jinyuan was confused. "Prove what?"
"Prove that you are the young lady's father!"
Feng Jinyuan gritted his teeth, "Nonsense!" What kind of people are in this mansion? He really wondered if Feng Yuheng had found all the best people in the world.
The girl said bluntly, "No nonsense! This is the room of the second-rank Ji'an County Lady. How can you let a strange man come in and out at will? If you don't have evidence, please go back!" She made a gesture to send the guest away, and Feng Jinyuan was almost mad at her.
How to prove this "Dad"? Could he be asked to go to the government? Does that make sense? He stamped his feet: "How can you come and go as you please? Didn't you see your young lady is watching you from behind?"
The fat girl glanced back, then looked at Feng Jinyuan, and reached out to touch his forehead. Feng Jinyuan was startled and quickly dodged, but was still scratched. The fat girl said, "You don't have a fever! What nonsense are you talking about?" Then she pointed to where Feng Yuheng was sitting: "Isn't the young lady still sitting there?"
Feng Jinyuan turned around and saw that, as expected, his second daughter hadn't moved at all and was still sitting there obediently. His son was still reciting the Art of War, and his former father-in-law was still laughing. Everything was just like when he first came in, making him wonder if he had lost his mind and hadn't even walked past that place just now.
Feng Yuheng didn't move, so he naturally couldn't go into the house by himself. He had no choice but to come back and stand in front of Feng Yuheng again, pointing at her and saying, "Didn't you hear what your father just said to you?"
Feng Yuheng still didn't say anything, but Feng Zirui took over the conversation. He raised his chubby little head and asked his father with a puzzled look: "Father, the teacher said that when the elders are around, you must greet them first. This is the most basic etiquette. Zirui has been waiting for father to salute grandpa, and then Zirui can salute father, but why did father ignore grandpa?"
Feng Jinyuan was blocked by his son and couldn't say a word. His face turned red and white. At this time, Feng Yuheng said to Zirui: "Zirui, this is our grandfather, but our mother has divorced our father, and the Yao and Feng families no longer have any relationship. Therefore, our grandfather and our father are at most acquaintances, and there is no father-in-law and son-in-law relationship."
Zirui still didn't understand: "But even if he is an acquaintance, grandpa is still an elder! The teacher said that you should greet elders when you meet them, but he didn't say that this elder must be a relative."
"Oh, so that's it!" Feng Yuheng nodded, "Zi Rui is still sensible."
Feng Jinyuan bit his tongue. Was he being told that he was immature? How could he, a grown man, be told that he was immature by his daughter? But was he going to argue? He had no right to do so. He was wrong in this matter. How could he have the nerve to argue, especially in front of Zirui.
Although he was angry and unwilling, he didn't want to behave too badly in front of Feng Zirui, so he gritted his teeth and bowed to Yao Xian, saying, "Dr. Yao, I am honored."
Yao Xian then looked at Feng Jinyuan and replied, "Master Feng, I am no longer an imperial physician."
Feng Jinyuan didn't want to talk to him any more, so after greeting him, he said to Feng Yuheng, "Come in."
Feng Yuheng still didn't move, but Qingyu, who was standing beside him, took two steps forward and took out a piece of paper from her sleeve. "Lord Feng," she said, "The deed to the Feng Mansion is here. I wonder if you have brought the banknotes that the Fifth Prince gave you?"
Feng Jinyuan didn't expect this to be so direct. He felt a little embarrassed in front of so many people, but he couldn't resist the temptation of the deed. He subconsciously reached out to grab it, but Qingyu quickly stepped back and shouted, "Master Feng! You're handing over the money and the goods at the same time. Are you trying to rob me?"
"Hmph!" Feng Jinyuan flicked his sleeves and took out a banknote - "Take it!"
Qingyu looked at the banknote for a while, nodded at Feng Yuheng, then took the banknote and returned the deed.
When Feng Jinyuan finally got the deed of Feng Mansion back in his hands, he almost cried. It was because of this deed that he was sent to prison for the first time in his life, and was imprisoned for so long, and even his old lady passed away because of it. He felt aggrieved whenever he thought about it.
But Feng Yuheng opened her mouth again and said, "Father, please keep the deed quickly. You don't have to thank me. As a daughter, it was my duty to lend you the money. Today we have settled the accounts. I will send someone to the government office to destroy the loan notes that have been filed. Alas, it is a pity that my grandmother passed away because of this. Father, you must think twice before doing anything in the future."
Feng Jinyuan had a strong urge to strangle his second daughter to death. He couldn't remember how many times this urge had come up in the past year or so. He only knew that each time it became stronger than the last, and sometimes it was so strong that he couldn't control it.
But he had to control himself even if he couldn't control himself anymore, because an ironclad fact was before him - he couldn't beat Feng Yuheng.
However, just this look revealed deep hostility, which made Yao Xian particularly puzzled. He was not the real Yao Xian, but Feng Yuheng's grandfather in the previous life, Feng Yin. He had only heard that Feng Jinyuan, the father, was very bad to his second daughter. After meeting Feng Yuheng, he also heard Feng Yuheng talk about some things, but this was the first time he really faced Feng Jinyuan head-on. It was the first time, and he immediately saw through the nature of Feng Jinyuan's bastard. How could a biological father treat his daughter like this?
Yao Xian felt that this was absolutely intolerable! So he opened his mouth and suddenly shouted - "Who are you glaring at?"
This voice was full of sound, rich and domineering, and Feng Jinyuan was almost scared to the ground. He looked at Yao Xian blankly, and then he realized that his former father-in-law had not aged after these years and the sun and wind of the deserted state. He looked much younger. I didn't think his face was glowing before, but now his complexion is almost as good as his. And this movement, when did Yao Xian speak so loudly before? Although his attitude was not good and his temper was also bad, he didn't have such a strong and loud voice.
This change reminded him of Feng Yuheng. Feng Yuheng had also changed suddenly after returning from the northwest, which was unacceptable. Now Yao Xian had also changed. Could it be that it was a blessing in disguise that these two people were sent to good places? To exercise their bodies?
He was confused for a while and didn't bother to reply to Yao Xian. Yao Xian got angry, grabbed an empty teacup on the rattan table beside him, and threw it at Feng Jinyuan's face.
Feng Jinyuan was unable to dodge and was hit directly. This hit made him sit on the ground with a plop, covering his forehead with both hands, and he almost cried in pain.
Then Yao Xian groaned and said, "No need to fight!"
Feng Jinyuan hated that he was not a woman at this moment. If he was a woman, he would definitely sit on the ground and howl. This was too bullying!
Feng Zirui went forward to help him up from the ground, and kindly advised: "Father, you should go back. We won't tell anyone about the land deed. After all, your father's face is important."
Feng Jinyuan thought, does he still have face? But he held back in front of his son. He wanted to glare at Yao Xian again, but he felt that if he glared at him again, the old man might dig his eyes out. He couldn't cry or glare, and he didn't have the ability to fight back. He knew that he had no other hope except to leave in disgrace.
He flicked his sleeves, shook off Feng Zirui's little hand, and left the county lord's mansion without a groan. He could vaguely hear Feng Zirui sighing behind him and saying, "Alas! Father is so disappointing." His old face turned red, and his steps became faster.
Yao Xian, who had beaten someone, turned his head halfway and asked Feng Yuheng, "You just said that you wanted to ask the old emperor to give the Yao family a new house? I think there's no need to choose, the Feng Mansion next door is good!"
