Feng Yu Heng revealed a smile. She knew that this was He Zhong reminding her. Presently, Feng Chen Yu and Feng Fen Dai were very popular with the matriarch. This was to let her have an idea.
Thus she said: "Many thanks housekeeper He. It's cold in Winter, and I saw that housekeeper He has some frostbites on his hands. Now that it's the end of the year, it would be best not to spend the new year with frostbites. I will have someone send some frostbite cream over later."
"Oh!" He Zhong did not think that a single word from him would be exchanged for medicine from Feng Yu Heng. County princess Ji 'an's medicine. That was something that many people could not buy even if they had money. He quickly saluted Feng Yu Heng: "This servant thanks second young miss."
Feng Yu Heng did not say anything else. Turning around to leave, however, she happened to see three girls walk in from outside the manor. The one in the middle was graceful. Her eyebrows were like jade, her skin was white as snow, her waist was thin, and her teeth were like seashells. On such a cold day, she only wore a light blue robe, which faintly revealed her skin of ice and bones of jade. The two to her side were clearly maidservants, but they were also graceful and had slender waists.
When the three entered the manor, a servant immediately went forward to greet them. His attitude was very respectful and polite, as he led them into the inner courtyard.
Feng Yu Heng felt that there were a few too many surprises today, "Who is that?"
He Zhong told her: "It's miss Hong Yun. Fourth young miss invited her back to the manor to teach dancing."
"Oh." She nodded, "Fourth sister will be eleven years old after the new year. She should learn more about the four arts that girls do. It's just that this miss Hong Yun is quite special."
He Zhong said: "She is indeed special. When she first arrived, elder madam nearly chased her out upon seeing her dress. But what method did fourth young miss use to convince elder madam to allow miss Hong Yun to stay. "He Zhong said this while shaking his head. It was clear that he was very puzzled by this.
Feng Yu Heng did not ask any further, as she brought Huang Quan and Mei Xiang in the direction of Shu Ya courtyard.
She didn't stop until she reached a fork in the road. Reaching into her sleeve, she retrieved a box of ointment from her space and handed it to Meixiang. "Let's go back to Third Miss. This ointment can heal the injury on your back and also relieve the pain. Find someone to apply it on you."
Meixiang was so grateful that she wanted to kowtow to Feng Yu Heng, but the pain from the wound on her back made her sweat profusely.
Huang Quan couldn't stand it anymore and hurriedly stopped him. "Go back quickly. When you're better, you can go to Tong Sheng pavilion and kowtow to Second Miss."
Meixiang nodded repeatedly and thanked him again before slowly walking towards Madam An's courtyard.
Feng Yu Heng looked at the back of the little girl and suddenly asked Huang Quan, "Your Highness, do you like to watch dancing?"
Huang Quan was stunned for a moment before he remembered the dancer. "Miss, do you mean that Miss Si is learning to dance for His Highness?"
"What else?" While walking toward Shu Ya courtyard, she said: "I understand Feng Fen Dai's personality too well. She would not get up early if there were no benefits. How could she have the talent for dancing. But someone without talent and without any interest in dancing suddenly wants to learn to dance. That means that dancing is definitely very beneficial to her. Did you not hear housekeeper He say that she somehow managed to convince the elder madam to allow that dancer into the manor. Thinking about it, only a prince can suppress the elder madam. "
Huang Quan thought for a bit and felt that this was reasonable, thus he said: "Then this servant will go back and ask around. Hah, we've been in the military camp for a while and have been focused on training the soldiers. Otherwise, with His Highness Prince Yu, what sort of things could we not find out? "
Feng Yu Heng smirked, "It's also my fault. After entering the military camp, I put the matters of the Feng family to the side. Go to the Imperial Palace Yu later and ask around a bit more about His Highness the fifth prince. Also, find out what the deceased imperial concubine in the front palace likes and dislikes. It's possible that Feng Fen Dai is trying to imitate Dong Shi and make a fool of herself. "
Huang Quan did not understand what she meant by trying to imitate Dong Shi and make a fool of herself, but he knew that Feng Yu Heng wanted to know herself as well as her enemy, thus he nodded and complied.
The two chatted along the way and very quickly arrived at Shu Ya courtyard. Upon entering the courtyard, they saw a large number of maidservants gathered around a single person. They were chatting in a lively manner.
That person was none other than the Feng family's eldest young miss, Feng Chen Yu.
Today, Feng Chen Yu wore a blue Winter robe. The sleeves were tied up, giving her a clean and neat appearance. On her head, there was also a blue jade dangling ornament. Below her head, there were two orchid-shaped bells. When she shook them, there was a clear sound. It was truly very beautiful.
Chen Yu seemed to be in a good mood, as she allowed the maidservants to surround her. One sentence after another, they chatted. In just a few sentences, she had clearly explained the origins of her clothes.
"Eldest young miss, the material of your clothes is really good. It looks even purer than the snow falling from the sky. It makes people unable to look away."
"That's right! There's also this dangling ornament. This servant's eyes are lacking, so I can't tell what sort of gem it is made of, but I can tell at a glance that it is not an ordinary item. "
"That's right, that's right. Eldest young miss' bracelet is also new. Heavens, there's actually such a thing."
At Chen Yu's side was still Yi Lin. Hearing the maidservants praise her master, she also felt that she had gained some face, thus she took the initiative to reply for Chen Yu: "These were all sent by his Highness the eldest prince. They were just sent to the manor this morning. He also specifically advised young miss not to keep them. Once you have them, wear them. When the new year comes, even better ones will be sent."
Chen Yu's face turned red, as she lightly scolded Yi Lin: "You speak too much."
The maidservants' eyes were filled with envy, as one of them quickly said: "His Highness the eldest prince is much more generous than his Highness the fifth prince. His Highness the fifth prince sends back and forth, but it's nothing more than small things. Just looking at it, it's fine, but if it's compared to eldest young miss's, it's far worse."
Chen Yu's face was filled with a boundless smile, but she still said: "But you absolutely must not say it like that. The things sent by his Highness are both good. It's impossible to tell which is better."
The maidservant knew that she had said something wrong, so she obediently lowered her head and no longer spoke.
Chen Yu saw this and said: "I am doing this for your own good. If you say it in front of me today, it's fine, but if it was heard by someone else, it would be another matter."
The maidservant gratefully replied: "Thank you eldest young miss for the reminder."
"Un. It's good that you're sensible. "Chen Yu smiled, causing all of the maidservants to feel dizzy.
Feng Yu Heng watched the scene before her and felt it was funny. Feng Chen Yu was already very beautiful, but after experiencing such things, her appearance became even more charming. Now that she had this sort of set of clothes and accessories, it would not be an exaggeration to say that she was capable of causing the downfall of a city. She had to admit that regardless of her previous life or current life, Feng Chen Yu was the most beautiful girl she had ever seen. Even those movie stars from her previous life who had undergone plastic surgery did not have a face like hers.
It was just a pity that she had a face capable of causing the downfall of a city, but she also had a heart capable of causing the downfall of a city.
She stepped forward and loudly said: "Eldest sister, long time no see."
Once this voice was heard, Chen Yu trembled in fear. Quickly turning her head to look, she saw Feng Yu Heng walking towards her with a smile. Her heart reflexively skipped a few beats, causing her expression to change slightly.
But in the end, she still managed to calm herself down. Putting on her usual amiable expression, she took a few steps forward and warmly said: "Second sister, when did you return? Why did you not send someone to tell us ahead of time. We could have gone to the manor's entrance to receive you. "
Feng Yu Heng smiled and shook her head, "Eldest sister is too courteous. We are all family, so how could there be such rules. It has been a long time since we last met, but eldest sister's condition seems to have returned to its former peak. It truly is worthy of celebration. "
Feng Chen Yu knew that there was a hidden meaning in her words, but she pretended not to understand. She only treated it as a compliment, "My health has not been good over the past few days. I have troubled younger sister with worrying about me. Second sister has come to pay respects to grandmother, right? I also just arrived. I heard that fourth sister was inside, so I was not in a rush to go in. Since you have come, let's go together. "
"That's also good." Feng Yu Heng nodded and walked with Chen Yu into the matriarch's hall.
At this time, Feng Fen Dai was seated to the matriarch's right. While drinking tea, she said: "His Highness the fifth prince said that it will be the new year soon, so everyone in the manor will need to be tidied up, so he had someone send some banknotes over. Five thousand taels were specifically for granddaughter, so I kept it. The remaining ten thousand taels will be given to grandmother as a show of respect from granddaughter. "
Granny Zhao handed the banknotes that she had just received to the matriarch. One thousand taels each, and there were ten in total. Seeing this, the matriarch beamed with joy.
"You've all grown up and know how to show respect to grandmother. This is very good. Grandmother's love for you has not been in vain."
Fen Dai giggled and said: "Granddaughter is always thinking of grandmother. A few days ago, didn't his Highness the fifth prince send a few bolts of cloth? Granddaughter was not willing to use them, so I already sent someone to make some winter clothes for elder madam. Thinking about it, they will be ready in a few days. When that time comes, I hope grandmother will not dislike them."
The smile in the matriarch's eyes became even more profound, "I don't dislike them, I don't dislike them. The things his Highness the fifth prince sends are all very good. How could grandmother dislike them? As for you, don't just send all of the good things to grandmother. You need to keep some for yourself. "
"Yes." Fen Dai smiled and replied then took another sip of tea.
The matriarch looked at Fen Dai and felt happy. In the past, she found this granddaughter to be an eyesore no matter what. Especially when she caused trouble in front of the Ninth Prince, she was even more irritating.
But now that she thought about it, that was because Fen Dai was still young and did not understand. Now that she was a little older and had an engagement, was she not becoming more and more likable with each passing day.
At this time, Feng Yu Heng and Chen Yu just happened to arrive at the entrance. Chen Yu gently tugged at Feng Yu Heng's sleeve and quietly said: "Fourth sister's engagement, grandmother originally did not approve of it. But as fourth sister began to send one nice thing after another from his Highness the fifth prince to Shu Ya courtyard, elder madam's attitude slowly began to change. "
She did not have time to say anything, as the two had already entered the hall. Feng Chen Yu quickly walked over and saluted the matriarch before Feng Yu Heng: "Granddaughter greets grandmother."
Feng Yu Heng did not compete with her, as she continued to kneel behind Chen Yu "Heng Zheng has been outside the city for over a month. Returning to the manor today, I specially came to pay respects to grandmother."
The matriarch was stunned for a moment. She did not think that Feng Yu Heng would suddenly return. This left her completely unprepared. She could not help but glare at granny Zhao, reprimanding: "Second young miss has returned to the manor. Why did you not report ahead of time?"
Granny Zhao quickly said: "It was this old servant's negligence." In her mind, however, she wondered, why did nobody report to the gatekeeper? What she did not know, however, was that the gatekeeper had been tormented to the point of death by Han shi. How could they have any time to worry about such a thing.
Feng Yu Heng, however, said: "Heng Heng is not a guest. Where is there any need to report. Grandmother, have you been well since you came in?"
The matriarch awkwardly smiled, "Yes, you are not a guest. My body is fine, so I have troubled you with the concern. Quickly get up and take a seat. "Her words were indeed much more distant than before.
Feng Yu Heng did not argue with her, as she sat down at the head of the row across from Feng Fen Dai.
The matriarch, however, had already turned her attention to Chen Yu. She felt that Chen Yu's attire today was truly beautiful to the point of causing her to sigh in amazement. This granddaughter truly was beautiful. Even if she had watched her grow up, she was still amazed by Chen Yu.
"These clothes of yours, they are newly made, right?" She asked about the clothes, but the matriarch's gaze was fixated on the dangling ornament on her head. She had lived for most of her life, yet she still could not recognize what material it was made of.
Feng Yu Heng looked at it and pretended to say casually: "Thinking about it, that should be sky river stone. It's a very rare thing. It's even more valuable than glass jade."
Once these words came out, Fen Dai's gaze immediately became cold …
