Fu Ya's call of "mother" finally made Yao feel the mother-daughter affection that she had not felt for a long time. In her eyes, this was her daughter, the baby she had carried for ten months. Now, she only had this daughter by her side. Even her beloved son recognized that woman as his sister. What else could she count on? Now, she just hoped that this daughter could stay with her as she wished and never leave her heart.
At this time, Feng Yuheng was sitting in the hall of the Yao Mansion holding the tampered dress. The mourning hall set up by the Yao family for Lu Yao was in the side hall, and there were servants guarding it at this time. All the masters of the Yao family were gathered in this hall, staring at the dress in Feng Yuheng's hand.
After falling into the water, Xu caught a cold, but fortunately, the western medicine given by Feng Yuheng suppressed the disease, and the disease came and went quickly. But she just couldn't figure out why there was a problem with the clothes she embroidered for her niece?
"Ah Heng, show it to me." Xu asked Feng Yuheng for the dress and looked through it carefully. Finally, her eyes stopped at the back of the dress and she soon noticed something was wrong. "This collar is not the same as I originally sewed it. It seems to have been taken apart by someone."
Feng Yuheng said, "I opened it and checked it, but before I opened it, someone had already tampered with it." After that, he told everyone what he had checked before.
This statement would have shocked the Yao family, but when Feng Yuheng mentioned the matter of clothes, the Yao family had already prepared themselves mentally. The fact that Lu Yao married into the Yao Mansion had already made people suspicious, and coupled with what happened in the palace today, the Yao family had already lost all confidence in Lu Yao, including Yao Shu. He could not forgive someone who dragged his mother into the water for the sake of the sisters' fratricide. Even if that person was his wife, he would never tolerate it.
"Sister Heng." Yao Shu said, "When you said those words to me in the palace today, you should have already noticed that there was something wrong with Lu Yao, right?"
Feng Yuheng nodded, "I felt that the clothes my aunt gave me were different, but I never believed that it was my aunt who did it. Later, I asked and learned that Lu Yao had also handled the clothes, so I knew what was going on." After that, she looked at Yao Shu and said, "To be honest, brother, the maid in the palace has already told me what happened to Lu Yao. But this is a matter between the two of you. You can swallow this anger, but as your cousin, I can't say anything. However, she has been forcing me again and again. She wanted to harm me but failed, and then she turned to harm my aunt. Such a person must not be allowed to stay."
Yao Xian was furious and scolded Yao Shu harshly for being ignorant and rude for marrying such a woman.
Yao Shudao was also a husband, so he immediately knelt in front of Yao Xian, admitted his faults, admitted that he had implicated the Yao family and his mother, and also reflected on himself for not listening to Feng Yuheng, which almost caused a disaster.
Yao Xian sighed. He knew that it was useless to blame Yao Shu at this point. Lu Yao's funeral hall was set up in a side hall, and the Yao family didn't hold a big ceremony. This already showed their attitude. Now they were just waiting for the Lu family to come to them. He wanted to ask Lu Song, how dare the Lu family send such a broken flower to the Yao family? Did they really think that everyone in the Yao family was sick?
Yao Xian was angry. Feng Yuheng knew his grandfather too well and couldn't help but laugh secretly. Very good, Lu family, let me show you the consequences of my grandfather's anger and see if you Lu family can afford it.
Although the Yao family was in mourning, it didn't look like a mourning at all. Except for the mourning hall, there was no sign of depression in the whole family. Even Yao Shu was full of energy. The servants of the Yao family didn't take the dead young lady seriously at all. They just did what they were supposed to do. What's more, today was the evening of the moon. Not to mention that the Yao family didn't plan to open the gates to welcome guests to pay their respects, even if someone wanted to come, they would have to come tomorrow. Who would go to the mourning hall on the night of the full moon on August 15? Even the Lu family had no one coming!
Speaking of the Lu family, at this time, Lu Yan was standing in the study, talking to Lu Song and Ge about what happened today. After all, Ge did not enter the palace, and the Lu family only sent two daughters in. Lu Song was busy dealing with a group of officials, so he had no energy to pay attention to the affairs of the female family. And now, after listening to Lu Yan's exaggerated and deliberately misinterpreted words, he was even more convinced that Lu Yao was jealous of Lu Ping's entry into the palace, and was afraid that the Lu family would no longer pay attention to her from now on, so she took action to harm Lu Ping.
Mrs. Ge was so angry that she was shaking. She couldn't help but scold Lu Yao: "You are so ignorant! How can you put our Lu family in such a bad situation? Master, Lu Yao has been very jealous since she was a child. When she was young, she was jealous of Yan'er who became a legitimate daughter. She bullied her a lot. I suppressed the matter because of the previous wife's miserable life. I told us more than once that Yan'er should be tolerant and not to provoke her sister. But I didn't expect that her jealousy was not only directed at Yan'er, but even a concubine's daughter was not spared."
Lu Yan also chimed in - "That's right! Father, you're so lucky to have nurtured her like that, but think about it, what has she done since she was a child? Let alone other things, just the thing with my eldest brother, wasn't it enough to scare us when she married into the Yao family? I don't know what benefits the palace maids took from her and hid it, but if this matter hadn't been hidden at the time, and the Yao family had investigated... Father, you have said more than once that the Yao family should not be offended, but what about now? Not only has she offended them once, but Lu Yao, in order to harm my eldest sister, even dragged the eldest lady of the Yao family into the water. What should we do!"
The mother and daughter exchanged glances, singing the same tune, which made Lu Song sigh repeatedly. He thought that what his wife and daughter said was right. Lu Yao was a troublemaker. She had never done anything to bring honor to the family since she was a child. She had only been married to the Yao family for a few days, but she actually... He stamped his feet fiercely: "I made a wrong move at the beginning! It's also my fault for being so stupid. How could I send that little beast to the Yao Mansion? It's better to send anyone else than her!"
Lu Yan shuddered, fearing that if Lu Yao's father died, he would set his sights on her again, so she quickly winked at Ge, and heard Ge say, "The Yao family can no longer be considered. With Yao Xian's temper, it is already a mercy for him not to fight to the death with the Lu family this time. How could he allow another daughter of the Lu family to marry in? It's a pity for Ping'er."
Lu Song also sighed, "It's a pity indeed. I had originally been optimistic about the eldest son of the Ren family, but I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen."
Mrs. Ge struck while the iron was hot and grabbed Lu Yan's hand and said, "Yan'er, you must listen to your mother. If you can stay at home in the next few days, don't go out. Try to show up less in the future. You are the only one left in the Lu family. If you make a mistake again, what hope will your father and mother have!"
Lu Song also nodded and agreed with what Ge said.
Lu Yan's eyes lit up. This was the outcome she had been waiting for. Lu Yao and Lu Ping were both hurt. Now the Lu family depended entirely on her!
This night, the Lu family was doomed to be restless. Although the Yao family seemed to be worry-free, it was impossible for them to completely ignore Lu Yao's matter. But Feng Yuheng really had nothing to do. After leaving Yao's house, she was going to go back to the Princess's house to eat mooncakes. But as soon as she went out, she saw Xuan Tianming's imperial carriage waiting outside. Bai Ze sat in front of the carriage, holding a whip in his hand and shouting at her: "Princess! You finally came out. The master has been waiting for you for a long time."
As she spoke, the curtain of the carriage behind her was raised, and inside, Xuan Tianming, dressed in a purple robe, waved at her: "Come up quickly, I will take you to see the lanterns of Yue Xi!"
Feng Yuheng was also happy. She ran forward with her skirt lifted up, but she didn't get in the car. She just said, "I'll go back and change my clothes first!"
Xuan Tianming was extremely anxious, "What are you changing? My wife looks good in anything. Bai Ze, please bring your princess up!"
Bai Ze smiled slyly, jumped off the imperial carriage and made a gesture of invitation to Feng Yuheng: "Princess, please get in the car!"
Feng Yuheng shook his head, but did not insist. He held Bai Ze's arm and jumped onto the imperial carriage, then sat happily next to Xuan Tianming. Then he heard a voice from outside: "Gee!" The imperial carriage moved slowly forward.
But Xuan Tianming was not the only one in the palace carriage today. After Feng Yuheng came in, she found that Xuan Tianhua was also there. The two were sitting opposite each other, one waving a folding fan and the other cracking melon seeds.
She took a few peeled melon seeds from Xuan Tianming's hand and put them into her mouth while asking Xuan Tianhua: "Seventh brother, how much money did you cheat from the prefect Luo Tian today?" Just after she finished speaking, she was hit on the head. She glared at the shameless man beside her: "Xuan Tianming, why did you hit me on the head?"
Xuan Tianming corrected her: "What do you mean by cheating? That's the actual price."
Xuan Tianhua also nodded: "Yes, the East China Sea pearls are indeed valuable."
"So how much did you ask him for?" Feng Yuheng looked expectant.
But Xuan Tianhua obviously didn't want her to know the exact number, and only said: "I won't let you down."
Feng Yuheng curled his lips and stopped talking about this topic. Instead, he teased Xuan Tianhua, "Seventh Brother, are you planning to go watch the lanterns with us?"
Xuan Tianhua nodded, "My ninth brother invited me, and since I have nothing else to do, I will go with you guys."
"I'm afraid this... isn't a good idea?" The little girl leaned forward and explained the facts to Xuan Tianhua, "Look, Xuan Tianming and I are definitely a couple, but Seventh Brother, you're all alone, it doesn't seem harmonious no matter how you look at it! Why don't you find a partner too?"
Xuan Tianhua shook his head, "Bai Ze and Huang Quan don't have a companion either."
"Who said they didn't?" Feng Yuheng pointed at the two drivers, a man and a woman, and said, "Since they are followers, they naturally have to walk together, so they can be considered companions. But Seventh Brother, you can't walk with them, right?"
Xuan Tianhua smiled bitterly, thought about it again, and said: "We can go to Prince Wenxuan's Mansion and call Tiange. I can take Tiange with me."
Feng Yuheng waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no. Prince Wenxuan and the princess are both in the palace. It would be great for them to celebrate the moon's eve with their family and have a reunion dinner. That's something we can't even hope for. Seventh brother, you can't ruin their family happiness."
Xuan Tianhua was at a loss: "Then what do you think we should do?"
The little girl rolled her eyes and said, "How about... I find you a companion!"
