Thinking of this, she turned her head to look at Shen Shi, "Aunt Shen, Ah Huang is helping Father remember your kindness, so that no matter when, Father will always remember the great kindness of the Shen family in those years." You see how righteous I am.
"That's enough!" Feng Jin Yuan really couldn't listen anymore. His family wasn't a big, wealthy household that had been rooted in the capital for generations. He had relied on his own abilities to top the imperial exams and then worked hard on the court to build up their current fortune over the years.
Feng Yu's words were not wrong, when he took the imperial examination, the Feng family was short of money and could not afford to support him for ten years. It was Shen's family, a merchant in the same village, who scattered their wealth to support his studies at the request of their only daughter, Shen Shi. Shen Shi also stayed in the village to take care of her mother-in-law for many years. But he, after obtaining the title of Zhuangyuan, married Yao Shi, the daughter of the Imperial Hospital's head.
This matter was the Phoenix family's debt to the Shen family, but later he also mentioned that Mrs. Shen would be the hostess, can't they just let bygones be bygones and not bring it up for a lifetime?
"Let bygones be bygones!"
As soon as these words came out, Shen's family was no longer polite - "Sir, what do you mean? Was the contribution of my Shen family to the Feng family all fake?"
"That's not what I meant."
"What do you mean?" Shen's tone was unyielding and relentless, her fighting spirit shifting in an instant.
Feng Yu Hua pulled her mother and younger brother along, ready to watch the commotion, but someone was not stupid either.
Phoenix saw the situation was not right, her eyes rolled, and she covered Shen's mouth while rushing to Feng Yuhan: "Sister Ah-huan, why are you calling Mother 'Aunt' in unison with others? What kind of talk is this? It has confused Mother." While speaking, she secretly pinched Shen, "Mother, Sister Ah-huan just returned to the manor and doesn't understand etiquette; you need to teach her more in the future."
Madam Yao had long been called "Third Sister Shen" by Feng Yu Heng, and now that she brought it up again, Madam Yao pretended to want to kneel down and apologize.
Feng Yu Huan quickly pulled Yao Shi back and held her in place, refusing to let her kneel down no matter what.
Yao's hands were shaking with anxiety as she whispered to Feng Yu Huang: "Ah Huang, we just returned to the manor, you can't do this."
Feng Yu's face hung with an icy smile, and she bowed slightly to Shen Shi, "It was Ah Huang who made the mistake, sorry Shen Aunt... oh, Mother. Mainly because I used to call her aunt habitually before, it's hard to change my mouth for a while."
The Shen family was about to have another outburst when they heard the old lady's cane heavily stomping on the ground - "One by one, you're getting more and more outrageous! The legitimate mother doesn't act like a legitimate mother, the illegitimate daughter doesn't act like an illegitimate daughter, are all the rules of my Feng family just for show?"
Shen covered his injured hand and wailed with tears on his face: "Old lady, you must take charge for your daughter-in-law!"
"What are you talking about?" The old lady glared at Shen Shi, this daughter-in-law she had never liked. If it weren't for the Yao family's misfortune and the urgent need for Feng Fu to take a stand, she would never have agreed to promote Shen Shi. "You tell me, what do you want me to be in charge of?"
"Shen's eyes rolled, looking at Feng Yuexian. 'Back then, someone said this girl was a jinx, we sent her away and the house has been peaceful for years, but she comes back and causes bloodshed again! How can such a jinx be allowed to stay in the house?'"
"Madam!" Yao Shi exclaimed, "How could Ah Huang be a jinx? That's just the nonsense of that wicked person!"
"What explanation is there for this matter today?" Shen stretched out his own hand to show the crowd. "This girl's fate being unlucky is a well-known fact, in my opinion, she should be sent to the temple outside the city."
She mentioned the misfortune of three years ago, and the old lady's heart was also struck. For a moment, everyone in the hall fell silent.
During the stalemate, the butler rushed in hastily and whispered something into Feng Jin Yuan's ear. In an instant, Feng Jin Yuan's icy face twisted into countless expressions.
Before long, the steward retreated and Feng Jin Yuan waved his hand to instruct the servants: "Send Madam Yao and the two young masters back to Liu Garden for rest. All the slaves and servants will be provided with food, clothing, and other necessities according to their ranks."
"What?" Shen's family suddenly erupted, two steps rushed to Feng Jin Yuan's face: "Master, what did you say?"
Feng Jin Yuan shook off the wrist that had been grabbed by her and repeated again: "I said let Yao Shi take Ah Huang and Zi Rui to Liu Garden to rest."
"No way!" Madam Shen almost shrieked, "They're staying in the mansion, what about my sunken fish?"
Feng Chen covered Shen Shi's mouth with one hand, she knew that Shen Shi meant that if Feng Yu stayed here, then this marriage would not be hers, but although she thought so, she couldn't say it.
"Mother, no matter who is in the mansion, Chen Yu is still the legitimate daughter of Feng Manor, this will not change." It's better to use the term "legitimate daughter" to make it sound more pleasant.
Feng Jin Yuan naturally knew what Shen meant, but was also relieved that Feng Chen Yu remained calm in the face of danger. This daughter had not been raised in vain, no matter what she did, it was always satisfactory.
"Yes." He nodded, "Chen Yu is the legitimate daughter of Feng Manor, this point will never change." When he said this, his gaze was directed at Feng Yu Huang.
Feng Yu Huan also met his gaze, her eyes not as bright and sparkling as Feng Shen Yu's, but they were deep and profound, one glance and it was hard to see the bottom.
