She waved her hands in a hurry. "No, the wonton shop is doing fine. Ever since Sister Feng Wu taught Wang Xiaohu and the others a lesson last time, they've never dared to ask for protection money again. Miss Wu, these are snowflake wontons made by my grandmother. She insisted that you try them."
Lin Ling pushed the box into Feng Wu's hands as she spoke. Fearing that Feng Wu would turn her down, she waved goodbye at Feng Wu and ran off.
Feng Wu smiled wryly. Her neighbors were just too nice to her.
Seeing that more and more people had gathered, Feng Wu waved at them and said with a smile, "Granny Zhang, Uncle Zhao, everyone, I've just come back from treating a patient in the neighboring city. I'm going home now. See you later."
Feng Wu had disappeared from Northern Border City for the past few days, and she had to explain herself. That was why she said that she had gone to the neighboring city. Everyone in Northern Border City would be able to testify for her.
Carrying the bamboo basket on her back, Feng Wu strode off, glancing back every now and then.
The neighbors waved goodbye to Feng Wu as they talked among themselves.
"Is that Lin Ling the girl that Dong Hu almost took home as his concubine last year?"
"That's right. That's her. Back then, Grandpa Lin and Granny Lin wouldn't let them take her away. Wang Xiaohu almost kicked her to death because of that. It was such a big deal. "
"It's all thanks to Miss Wu. If she hadn't shown up in time to help them, the graves of the Lin family would be overgrown with weeds by now."
"Not only did Miss Wu save them, she also taught them how to make a living. I have to say, the wontons of the Lin family are so delicious."
"Miss Wu is so lucky to have Miss Wu in Northern Border City. She's saved so many lives since she came back. She's like a living Buddha!"
…
Feng Wu didn't hear the discussion behind her. Right now, she was hurrying home.
Qiuling had been so worried when Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle took her away three days ago. She had no idea what kind of mess her family was in.
Not to mention that she had seen the Phoenixes from the imperial capital right away when she was being held in the eagle's mouth!
One was Feng Yiran, and the other was Feng Liu. They were Feng Wu's eldest and Feng Liu's sixth cousins. Feng Wu's eldest uncle's children were her cousins.
Neither of them were easy to get along with. One was sinister and hypocritical, while the other was unruly and willful.
Back when Feng Wu fell from grace and became a cripple, these two were the ones who took the most pleasure in humiliating her.
At that thought, Feng Wu picked up her pace.
Because at home, there was a crying beauty and a naive and kind little brother.
He didn't know what kind of mess his family was in, and he didn't know how his mother and younger brother were doing.
Because of the unknown, the more Feng Wu thought about it, the more frightened she became. She ran as fast as she could.
Soon, Feng Wu arrived at the gate of the Feng family's old manor.
There were two guards standing at the gate.
His posture was ramrod straight, his expression was cold, and his gaze was cold. With a single look, one could tell that he was well-trained.
Feng Wu narrowed her eyes.
She didn't know who they were, so she was sure that they were from the imperial capital.
As expected, when Feng Wu walked in, the two guards crossed their sabers in front of her and stopped her. "Stop!"
