Lady Northern Feng was so pleased that she arrived at the Xuanyuan manor in high spirits. She hid the imperial edict at first and waited for the Xuanyuan family to show their hand. She was right!
Xuanyuan Xueyue twisted the truth, and Lady Northern Feng took out the imperial edict in the end.
"Lady Northern Feng, it's almost time. When the old master comes out and finds out that we couldn't keep you here, he'll punish us —"
Lady Yu smiled wryly at Lady Northern Feng.
Lady Yu was a nice person, and Lady Northern Feng had met her before. However, Feng Wu was the one who had to suffer. Hence, Lady Northern Feng asked Feng Wu, "Xiao Wu, what do you think?"
If Lady Northern Feng had been aggressive before, she had to keep a low profile now. After all, she had done what she could.
Hence, Feng Wu smiled. "I'll listen to you, Mother."
Seeing how sensible the girl was, Lady Northern Feng liked Feng Wu even more.
The banquet resumed.
The crowd dispersed again.
Young people hung out with young people, and the noble ladies hung out with their wives.
Right now, Lady Northern Feng was sitting there with Feng Wu, and naturally, the ladies of the other families kept coming over to greet them.
Those who could attend the birthday banquet at the Xuanyuan manor were either from influential families or officials of the second rank or above.
Once Lady Northern Feng was seated, the ladies went up to her.
"Miss Feng Wu is so beautiful. Lady Northern Feng is so lucky."
"Miss Feng Wu is such a nice girl. She's so patient."
"Miss Feng Wu …"
As they spoke, they took off bracelets or other personal belongings from their wrists and gave them to Feng Wu as gifts.
The crowd gathered around Lady Northern Feng and Feng Wu, and it was a lively scene.
Next to them, Lady Cai's face turned livid.
After all, this was the Xuanyuan manor's home turf. Why was Lady Northern Feng the host? Moreover, these ladies were so obviously fawning over Lady Northern Feng!
As the matriarch of the Xuanyuan family, Lady Cai's face darkened.
Next to her, Lady Yu looked at Lady Cai and smiled a little.
Her sister-in-law had always been proud of her noble status, but in front of Lady Northern Feng, she couldn't help feeling frustrated … How amusing.
As for Xuanyuan Ying?
Zuo Qingyu and the others took her to a small room.
Xuanyuan Ying, Zuo Qingyu, Dugu Yamo, Feng Liu, and Feng Sang were all there.
Seeing Xuanyuan Ying, Feng Liu burst into tears and said pitifully, "Sister Ying, how could you tell me? At that time — "
Xuanyuan Ying frowned.
She was already displeased at being forced to apologize. Now that Feng Liu was blaming her again, Xuanyuan Ying wanted to punch someone.
However, Zuo Qingyu took her hand, shook her head, and said something in a low voice.
When their gazes met, they nodded at each other.
Taking Feng Liu's hand, Xuanyuan Ying looked like she was going to burst into tears. "Sister Liu Er, if I hadn't said that, we would all be in trouble. Moreover, you were the one who told us. I didn't wrong you, did I?"
Feng Liu asked, "But …"
Zuo Qingyu looked at Feng Liu solemnly. "Shouldn't we be dealing with Feng Wu together instead of working together? You've suffered so much today, yet she's so proud of herself. Are you willing to accept this? "
He really couldn't accept this!
