"Wah, wah, wah …"
The father and son were chatting when Feng Jin heard Changsheng's cries coming from outside the courtyard. He could not sit still anymore.
"Why is Changsheng crying …"
His face was pale as he staggered up from the mat.
Feng Ren saw this and could not help but sigh. "You are indeed a father. You finally know how difficult it is to be a parent."
Feng Ren and Feng Gui stood up one after another and went to check on the news.
They thought it was normal for a child to cry, but they did not know that Changsheng had a very proud temper. Even if she cried, she would not wail loudly. At most, she would open her teary eyes and not reveal the slightest movement. The more stubborn and proud she was, the more one felt sorry for her.
It was because he understood that Feng Jin was so anxious.
Ever since Changsheng was born, she had rarely pretended to cry, let alone wail loudly.
He quickly followed the sound and saw Changsheng squatting on the ground, curled into a ball. The surrounding servants wanted to go up and hug her, but she waved them away.
"Changsheng … Changsheng …"
Feng Jin went up and hugged Changsheng. She heard a familiar voice and cried even harder.
He then realized that there were a few red marks on Changsheng's face. They were dripping with blood, obviously caused by a sharp object.
"Father … Wah … It hurts …"
Changsheng cried miserably and kept reaching out to wrap her arms around Feng Jin's neck. Her face was covered in tears.
The tears were salty and flowed into the wounds. It was extremely painful.
Feng Jin saw the fingernail marks on her face and was so angry that his whole body trembled.
The surrounding servants trembled and knelt down. Feng Jin suppressed his anger and asked, "How did Sun Xiaoniangzi's face become like this? What are you still doing here? Hurry and get the doctor here. If Sun Xiaoniangzi's face is damaged, which one of you can bear the responsibility? "
Someone went to get the doctor to come to the Feng residence. The other servants knelt on the ground and trembled.
Feng Ren and Feng Gui rushed over and thought it was a small matter. Seeing the marks on Changsheng's face, their faces immediately darkened.
"What happened? Who did this to Sun Xiaoniangzi's face? "
Feng Ren was usually reserved, but at this moment, he seemed terrifying and heavy. The servant woman trembled and said, "Two Sun Langjun and Sun Xiaoniangzi were playing. When the three of them were playing, they were accidentally hurt by Sun Xiaoniangzi's fingernails. Sun Xiaoniangzi cried and asked for Second Langjun."
When he heard that the injury on Changsheng's face was related to his two sons, Feng Gui was so angry that he couldn't speak.
"Second Brother, I will definitely give you an explanation regarding this matter. Those two unfilial sons are so disloyal … "
If one were to say that the child was young and immature, and that it was inevitable for him to get hurt in a fight, this could be justified.
However, with such a long fingernail, it could leave a bloody mark on a person's face. This was a serious matter.
Not only did Feng Gui have to discipline his two youngest sons, he also had to deal with the female servants around them.
"Big brother!" Feng Jin interrupted Feng Gui's words. Suppressing his anger, he said, "Let's get to the bottom of this matter first … Changsheng has been spoiled by Little Brother. Usually, he likes to cause trouble and has a stubborn temperament. Perhaps Changsheng bullied my two nephews …"
Hehe, Feng Jin was just being polite and giving Feng Gui some face. If he really wanted to hold it against him, that would be a joke.
Feng Gui had two children, one was three years old and the other was almost two years old. Changsheng was at most one and a half years old. Who was the bully?
Changsheng cried pitifully and patted Feng Jin's shoulder. As she cried, she kicked her legs and protested her innocence.
"… I didn't bully them … they scratched me … it hurts … it hurts …"
Feng Jin patted his daughter's head comfortingly and waited for the doctor to come and take a look.
Fortunately, the child's skin was tender and the wound wasn't deep. It would be fine after applying some medicine for external injuries.
However, because the child's injury healed quickly, the wound would be itchy when it healed. The female servants had to be careful not to let Changsheng scratch her wound.
Wei Jingxian, who was in the backyard, heard the news and rushed over. When she saw the bright red wound on Changsheng's face, she almost lost her balance.
At this point, the entire sequence of events had been investigated.
Changsheng's face was indeed scratched by the two children. Feng Gui looked at his son's fingernails angrily. He was so angry that he couldn't even speak.
After all, she was the wife of a noble family. No matter how dissatisfied Feng Gui was with his wife, he still had to give her the respect she deserved.
If the two legitimate sons were taken away from her, it would be no different from a slap in the face.
A few years ago, it was still alright. Madam Feng-Du's performance wasn't outstanding, but it was still passable. She seriously followed her mother to learn how to manage the household.
However, after the second legitimate son was born, her temperament became more and more gloomy. She showed her true colors and was paranoid all day long. She was even jealous of the maidservants who had already been married off. She ordered people to slap her for no reason. She thought that she had two legitimate sons by her side and became more and more unreasonable.
Now, it was even better. She had already fallen into a demonic trap and couldn't even focus on the lives of her two sons.
"Father … Father …"
Feng Gui's two children shrunk their necks, seeming to realize the severity of the situation.
Before Feng Gui could speak, Madam Feng-Du had already pulled the two children behind her, one arm and one shoulder respectively.
Looking at Madam Feng-Du's crude actions, Feng Gui endured it again and again. His eyes were filled with malice.
Madam Feng-Du looked indignantly at Changsheng, who was in Feng Jin's arms.
Without waiting for Wei Jingxian to speak, Madam Feng-Du struck first. She said, "Sister-in-law, although you are from a small family, you are still a noble daughter of an aristocratic family. Didn't your elders teach you to take care of your husband and teach your children? Look at the b * stard you've raised. He doesn't know anything else, but he's good at complaining … "
Slap!
Almost at the same time, Feng Jin raised his hand to block Feng Gui's right hand. Wei Jingxian had already rushed forward and slapped her.
Seeing this, Feng Jin felt helpless.
This Madam Feng-Du was indeed formidable. She could make his eldest brother, who had cultivated for more than 20 years, break down.
He alone could only stop Feng Gui, but he couldn't stop his own wife.
Even Feng Jin felt his face hurt when he saw Jingxian's slap.
"What … did you say just now?" Madam Feng rushed over, surrounded by servants. When she heard Madam Feng-Du's words, she was so angry that she trembled. Could such a vicious woman really be the matriarch of the Feng family? She had chosen so many women, and the woman she chose was actually this kind of trash?
As a mother-in-law, she could tolerate other minor problems. After a few years of careful treatment, she might still be able to be cured.
But now?
She was clearly rotten to the core.
A matriarch not only had to have a good family background to be competent, but most importantly, she had to be educated and knowledgeable. Did she have that?
Feng Gwe was stopped by Feng Jin. He suppressed the anger that was surging in his heart.
He said, "Send your First Madam back to her room."
Madam Feng-Du was also speechless. She spat out all the resentment she usually had.
She felt remorseful, but seeing Feng Gui's attitude, she thought that he was trying to protect her. Her trembling heart calmed down slightly.
When she returned to her room, her weak legs finally felt like they were stepping on solid ground.
She didn't realize that her two sons weren't sent back together. Instead, they were carried by servants to the back hall. Their fingernails were carefully cut, and their bodies were checked for internal injuries. Then, they were sent to the main courtyard where Feng Ren and his wife lived … No matter how good Feng Gui's temper was, there was still a limit to his tolerance.
His bottom line was very clear. One was his clan, and the other was his family.
