Chapter 8: A Visitor from Feng Mansion



As soon as these words came out, everyone's attention was drawn to them. Yao staggered forward two steps, holding Feng Yuheng's hand and trembling.

"Mother." She glanced at Yao, as if she had thought of something, and then looked at the carriage. Sure enough, the curtain was lifted and an old woman walked out of the carriage.

Although the old woman looked like a servant at first glance, the material of her clothes was extraordinary. At least for the people in this mountain village, they would probably not be able to wear them even if they saved money for a lifetime.

Feng Yuheng's memory was stirred up again. The dowry of Yao, Madam Sun, was detained in Feng Mansion after Yao and her daughter were sent to the mountain village. Before she could think about it, she saw the old woman ran to Yao in a few steps and knelt down: "Madam, you have suffered!"

Yao felt that this scene was like a lifetime ago. In the past three years, she had never been asked to kneel down and had never come into contact with anyone related to the Feng family. In her mind, the Feng family had long since disregarded the lives of her and her two children. When she saw Nanny Sun, the first thing she thought of was, "Has Nanny also been kicked out of the house?"

Nanny Sun burst into tears: "No, no. Madam, I am here to take you and the young lady back to the mansion!"

"Return to the mansion?" Not only Yao, but Feng Yuheng and Feng Zirui were also stunned for a moment. Feng Zirui asked first: "Return to what mansion?"

Yao also followed up by asking: "Mammy, what's going on? Why did you come to Xiping Village?"

Nanny Sun grabbed Yao's hand, shaking with excitement, "Madam and Miss are so happy! The Ninth Prince won the battle, and the Master and the Old Madam are calling you back to prepare for Miss's marriage! Please get in the car and go back to the mansion!"

The sudden news hit us like a bombshell, shocking the mother and her two children so much that they were speechless for a moment.

"Mom, be careful!" Feng Yuheng quickly supported Yao who was about to fall down in shock. She tried her best to control her emotions in the midst of the overwhelming memories and said calmly, "This happened suddenly. The three of us, mother and son, are not yet prepared. Please wait a moment until we have packed up before setting off!"

Nanny Sun wiped her eyes and bowed respectfully to Feng Yuheng, "The Ninth Prince will return to the capital soon, please hurry up, Madam."

In the swaying carriage, Feng Yuheng had to lean against the window and close her eyes to rest tiredly after the non-stop tossing from last night to now. However, every word of Yao and Nanny Sun's words reached her ears without missing a word.

"It was the old lady who decided to bring the lady, young lady and young master back to the capital this time, but if you really want to talk about it, it was all thanks to the great blessing of the Ninth Prince."

"But..." Yao was a little surprised, "Ah Heng has been sent to the mountain village for so many years, so the marriage is probably no longer valid, right?"

"It counts, it counts!" Nanny Sun was happy when she mentioned this. "If it doesn't count, how could the mansion send this old servant to pick you up! You don't know that these years this old servant has been looking forward to the day when Madam can come back in the mansion." Nanny Sun choked with sobs, and Yao also wiped her tears.

Feng Yuheng opened his eyes and asked Nanny Sun: "If it counts, how dare the Feng Mansion send mother and my sister and I to this mountain village?"

Madam Sun was stunned, and looked at Feng Yuheng with a look of surprise. Yao quickly grabbed her hand and explained, "Madam, you don't know, these years in the mountains have been too hard. Thanks to Ah Heng, the child had read some medical books with her grandfather before, otherwise the three of us would not have survived. Although we survived, the child's temper became colder and colder."

Nanny Sun nodded and looked at Feng Yuheng again. Was it just cold? Why did she feel that there was a sharpness in this young lady's eyes?

But no matter what, a young lady like this is better than the one three years ago. The Feng Mansion is a place where people are bullied. If she continues to let herself be bullied, she will probably die before she can get married.

"I don't know that either." Thinking of Feng Yuheng's question, Nanny Sun said, "I found it strange at first. Young Miss has been engaged to an imperial relative since she was young, so why is the Feng family so bold? Now that I think about it, I'm afraid the Feng family didn't expect the Ninth Prince to be so powerful now."

"What power does he have?" Feng Yuheng was very interested in the original owner's fiancé. "

"Miss, you may not know that the Ninth Prince was appointed by the Emperor as the Grand Marshal of the Army two years ago to fight in the northwest border. Now that the northwest has won a great victory, the Ninth Prince will return to the capital soon."

So that's how it is!

Feng Yuheng did not ask any more questions and continued to close his eyes. Analyzing from the surface, the Feng family was afraid that the Ninth Prince would think of her as his fiancée when he came to ask the Empress for an account, so they were in a hurry to take her back to the mansion.

But thinking more deeply... she frowned, fearing that things might not be that simple.

It was very far from the northwest to the capital, and even if they rode at full speed day and night, it would take at least twenty days. Feng Yuheng was not familiar with the topography of the Dashun Dynasty, but she could still tell the east, south, west and north. After the carriage had been traveling for about five days, she felt something was wrong. The carriage was heading north all the way to the capital, but why did it suddenly turn south?
