"By the way, back to what we were talking about. Aunt Jun, what's that autograph you mentioned?" Feng Wu asked.
Uncle Qiu had something to say when he heard Feng Wu's question.
"Speaking of this matter, it's hard to explain in a few words." Uncle Qiu gave her a wry smile. "A lot has happened since Miss Feng left. Granny Zhao and I have been able to keep the small matters at bay, but there are some things that we can't stop no matter how hard we try.
"The third branch of the family used to work in the southern territory, but they came back to the imperial capital a month ago. Ever since Lady Jun came back, the peace in the old manor has been disturbed."
Uncle Qiu said, "Miss Wu, Lady Jun isn't a good person. You have to be careful from now on."
Feng Wu nodded. "And?"
Uncle Qiu said, "I've been out running errands and Granny Zhao has been taking care of everything in the house. She'll be the one to tell you."
Feng Wu then turned to Granny Zhao.
Granny Zhao heaved a long sigh. "Lady Jun was very friendly at first and would drop by Fallen Star Yard every now and then. Even when Lady Wu ignored her, she didn't seem to mind at all and would drop by every day.
"Later on, she came more often, so Madam was not so wary of her. One time, Eighth Young Master came with her. To be honest, our Eighth Young Master was raised by Third Madam to be … extremely arrogant. He ran around and wanted everything he saw. If Madam refused, he would sit on the ground and cry."
"Young Master Jun had his eye on one of the decorations in Miss Feng's room. It was that statue of the Eighteen Bronze Men." Granny Zhao gestured.
Feng Wu tried to recall. The statue of the Eighteen Bronze Men?
She remembered it now. Yu Mingye had left it for her when he left the imperial capital for his own home.
It was a dark and windy night. Yu Mingye patted Feng Wu on the shoulder and smiled brightly. "Little Feng Wu, you're my fiancée. You're not allowed to have too much contact with Jun Linyuan, understand? No, you shouldn't have any contact with him in the first place! "
"Get lost!" Feng Wu glared at him.
Rubbing his nose, Yu Mingye mumbled, "I'm telling you the truth, but you won't believe me …"
The wind was so strong that Feng Wu couldn't hear him clearly. "What did you just say?"
Yu Mingye looked at Feng Wu resentfully. Seeing the confusion in her dark eyes on her pretty face, he sighed in frustration and tossed something at Feng Wu. "Take it."
"What is it?" Feng Wu was holding a package with both hands, which contained a square box.
Yu Mingye snorted. "One day, you'll see that I'm the best for you!"
After that, Yu Mingye turned around, jumped off the wall, and disappeared into the night.
Feng Wu said, "Hey —"
Feng Wu's voice soon disappeared into the night, along with Yu Mingye.
Back in her room, Feng Wu opened the box and found a set of eighteen bronze figurines made of clay.
The statue was very small, as tall as a pinky finger.
Feng Wu counted and found that there were 18 of them in total, so she became 18 bronze statues.
"Miss, miss?" Seeing that Feng Wu was lost in thought, Granny Zhao waved a hand in front of her face.
Feng Wu finally came back to herself and looked at Granny Zhao.
Granny Zhao asked concernedly, "Miss, what's wrong?"
Feng Wu shook her head. "Please go on."
Granny Zhao said "Good" and continued to say,
