Fu Ya calling her mother allowed Yao shi to finally feel the affection between mother and daughter that she had not felt for a long time. In her eyes, this was her daughter. This was the treasure that she had given birth to after carrying her for ten months. Now, she only had this daughter at her side. Even the son that she doted on recognized that girl as his elder sister. What else did she have? Now, she just hoped that this daughter would be able to do as she wished and stay at her side. She hoped that she would never leave her side.
At this time, Feng Yu Heng was sitting in the main hall of the Yao manor with the clothes that had been tampered with. The mourning hall that the Yao family had set up for Lu Yao was in a side hall. At this time, there were servants standing guard, and all of the masters of the Yao family were gathered in this hall. They were all staring at the clothes in Feng Yu Heng's hands.
After Xu shi had fallen into the water, she had caught a bit of a cold, but fortunately, there was the Western medicine that Feng Yu Heng had given her to suppress it. The illness came quickly and left quickly. But she just could not understand. How could there be a problem with the clothes that she had embroidered for her niece?
"Heng Heng, let me take a look." Xu shi reached out to Feng Yu Heng for the clothes and looked carefully. In the end, her gaze stopped at the collar of the clothes and very quickly noticed that something was off. "This collar is not the same as the one that I sewed at the beginning. It seems that it has been taken apart by someone."
Feng Yu Heng said: "I took it apart to take a look, but before I took it apart, someone had already tampered with it." After saying this, she told everyone about what had happened earlier.
These words would have caused the members of the Yao family to be shocked, but now that Feng Yu Heng had brought up the matter of the clothes, the members of the Yao family had prepared themselves mentally. When Lu Yao had married into the Yao manor, there had already been some suspicions. In addition to what had happened in the palace today, the members of the Yao family had already lost all confidence in Lu Yao. This included Yao Shu. He could not forgive someone that had dragged his mother into the water for the sake of a sister. Even if that person was his wife, he definitely would not tolerate it.
"Younger sister Heng." Yao Shu spoke up, "When you said those things to me in the palace today, you should have already noticed that there was something wrong with Lu Yao, right?"
Feng Yu Heng nodded, "I felt that there was something strange about the clothes that eldest aunty gave me, but I definitely did not believe that it was eldest aunty that had done it. Later on, I asked around and found that the clothes had also been handled by Lu Yao, thus I knew what was going on." After saying this, she looked at Yao Shu and said: "Not to hide it from eldest brother, but the granny in the palace has already told me about Lu Yao's situation. But this is a matter between the two of you. Since you can swallow this, as your cousin, I can't say anything. However, she kept forcing me time and time again. After failing to harm me, she turned to harm Eldest Aunt. This kind of person must not be allowed to live. "
Yao Xian became furious and sternly scolded Yao Shu for not being sensible and not being able to see the bigger picture, actually marrying that sort of woman.
Yao Shu was also a husband, thus he immediately kneeled in front of Yao Xian and admitted that he had made a mistake. He admitted that he had implicated the Yao family and implicated his mother. At the same time, he reflected that he should not have listened to Feng Yu Heng's words and nearly caused a disaster.
Yao Xian let out a long sigh. He also knew that with things as they were, there was no point in blaming Yao Shu. Lu Yao's mourning hall was set in a side hall, and the Yao family did not make a big deal out of it. This already made their attitude clear. Now, they were just waiting for the Lu Family to come knocking. He wanted to ask Lu Song, how much courage did the Lu Family have to send such a withered flower to the Yao family? Did they really think that everyone in the Yao family was a sick cat?
Yao Xian became angry. Feng Yu Heng understood her grandfather too well. She could not help but secretly laugh. Very good, Lu Family, I will let you see the consequences of my grandfather getting angry. Let's see if your Lu Family can handle it or not.
Although the Yao family was holding a funeral, from the perspective of others, it didn't look like a funeral at all. Other than the mourning hall, there wasn't a trace of dejection in the entire residence. Even Yao Shu was full of vigor. Even the servants of the Yao residence didn't take the deceased Young Madam seriously and did what they were supposed to do. Moreover, today was the Mid-Autumn Festival. Not to mention the fact that the Yao family did not plan on opening the gates to guests to offer their condolences, but even if someone wanted to come, they would have to wait until the next day. Who would come to the mourning hall on the 15th of the eighth month? Even the Lu Family did not have anyone come to visit!
Speaking of the Lu Family, at this time, Lu Yan was standing in the study, speaking to Lu Song and the Ge Clan about the day's matters. After all, the Ge Clan did not enter the palace, and the Lu Family only sent in two daughters. Lu Song was also busy dealing with officials. How could he have the energy to pay attention to the matters of the female family. Now, hearing Lu Yan's exaggerated explanation, he was even more certain that Lu Yao was jealous that Lü Ping had entered the palace and feared that the Lu Family would no longer pay attention to her. Only then did she take action to harm Lü Ping.
The Ge Clan trembled with anger and could not help but curse at Lu Yao: "She's too insensible! How much of a trap does she want to put our Lu Family in? Husband, Lu Yao has been extremely jealous ever since she was young. When she was young, she was jealous that Yan 'er had also become the daughter of the first wife. I suppressed this matter for the sake of the previous madam's bitter life. Not just once, I told Yan' er to endure and not to go and offend her elder sister. But who knew that her jealousy would not just be directed at Yan 'er. She would not even let off a daughter of a concubine. "
Lu Yan also chimed in, "That's right! Father, it's a pity that you've nurtured her like that, but think about it. What has she done since she was young? Not to mention anything else, but just the matter with eldest brother, wasn't it enough to make us tremble with fear when she married into the Yao family? Who knows what benefits the grannies in the palace received from her, but if this matter was not hidden back then, and the Yao family investigated … Father, you've said more than once that the Yao family must not be offended, but what about now? Not to mention offending them once, but for the sake of harming eldest sister, Lu Yao actually dragged down the Yao family's head madam. What should we do! "
The mother and daughter looked at each other and echoed each other, causing Lu Song to sigh repeatedly. He thought to himself that what his wife and daughter had said was correct. Lu Yao was a troublemaker. Ever since she was young, she had never done a single thing for the manor to gain face. After marrying into the Yao family for just a few days, she actually … He fiercely stomped his foot: "Back then, this move was wrong! It's also my fault for being foolish. How could I have sent that little bastard to the Yao manor? Sending anyone else would be better than sending her! "
Lu Yan trembled, fearing that her father would set his sights on her after losing Lu Yao, thus she quickly gave a look to the Ge Clan, who then said: "Right now, we can no longer think about the Yao family. Based on that Yao Xian's temper, for him to not fight to the death with the Lu Family is already quite benevolent. How could he possibly allow another daughter of the Lu Family to enter the manor. It's … a pity about Ping. "
Lu Song also sighed, "Indeed, it's a pity. I originally favored the Ren family's son of the first wife; however, who knew that this sort of thing would happen."
The Ge Clan struck while the iron was hot, grabbing Lu Yan's hand and saying: "Yan 'er, you must listen to mother. For the next few days, do not go out if you can. In the future, do not show yourself in public as much as possible. Right now, the Lu Family only has you left as the sole child. If something were to happen to you, what hope would father and mother have left! "
Lu Song also nodded, acknowledging the Ge Clan's words.
Lu Yan's eyes lit up. She had been waiting for this sort of outcome. Lu Yao and Lü Ping had both suffered. Now, the Lu Family could only rely on her!
That night, it was fated that the Lu Family would not be able to have a peaceful night. Although the Yao family appeared to be worry-free, it was impossible for them to not think about Lu Yao's matter. But Feng Yu Heng really did not have much to do. After leaving the Yao manor, she prepared to return to the imperial daughter's manor to eat mooncakes, but just as she left, she saw Xuan Tianming's imperial carriage waiting outside. Bai Ze sat at the front of the carriage. Waving the horsewhip in his hand, he shouted to her: "Princess! You've finally come out. Master has been waiting for you for a long time. "
While he spoke, the curtain of the carriage behind him was lifted. Inside, Xuan Tianming was wearing a purple robe and waved to her: "Quickly get in. I will bring you to see the lanterns for the Mid-Autumn Festival!"
Feng Yu Heng was also happy. Lifting her dress, she ran forward; however, she did not get in the carriage, only saying: "I will go back and change my clothes first!"
Xuan Tianming, however, was extremely anxious, "What's there to change for? I's wife looks good in anything. Bai Ze, invite your Princess Consort up here! "
Bai Ze smiled slyly. Jumping off the imperial carriage, he gestured to Feng Yu Heng: "Princess, quickly get in the carriage!"
Feng Yu Heng shook her head, but did not insist. Holding onto Bai Ze's arm, she jumped into the imperial carriage. Then, she happily sat beside Xuan Tianming. She heard a shout from outside: "Jia!" The imperial carriage slowly moved forward.
But today, Xuan Tianming was not the only person in the imperial carriage. When Feng Yu Heng came in, she discovered that Xuan Tianhua was also there. The two of them were sitting opposite each other. One was holding a folding fan, while the other was cracking melon seeds.
She took a few peeled melon seeds from Xuan Tianming's hand and put them into her mouth as she asked Xuan Tianhua: "Seventh Brother, how much money did you cheat from the Luotian magistrate today?" Just as she finished speaking, her head was knocked by someone. She glared at the shameless person beside her: "Xuan Tianming, why did you hit my head?"
Xuan Tianming corrected her: "What do you mean by cheat? That is a clearly marked price. "
Xuan Tianhua also nodded: "That's right, the Pearl of the Eastern Sea is indeed valuable."
"Then how much did you get from him?" Feng Yu Heng's face was full of expectation.
But Xuan Tianhua obviously did not want her to know the exact number, only saying: "I won't let you down."
Feng Yu Heng pursed her lips and did not continue this topic. Instead, she teased Xuan Tianhua: "Seventh Brother, are you planning to go see the lanterns with us?"
Xuan Tianhua nodded: "The Ninth Brother invited me. Since I have nothing to do, I'll go with you."
"I'm afraid … that's not very good, right?" The little girl leaned forward and reasoned with Xuan Tianhua: "You see, Xuan Tianming and I are definitely a couple, but Seventh Brother, you're all alone. No matter how you look at it, you don't look compatible! Don't you want to find a companion? "
Xuan Tianhua shook his head: "Bai Ze and Huang Quan also don't have companions."
"Who said they don't have companions?" Feng Yu Heng pointed at the man and woman driving the carriage outside and said, "Since they are attendants, they naturally have to walk together, so they can barely be considered companions. But Seventh Brother, you can't walk together with them, right? "
Xuan Tianhua smiled bitterly, thought again, and said: "We can go to Prince Wenxuan's Mansion and call Tiange. I'll take Tiange with me."
Feng Yu Heng repeatedly waved her hand: "No, no. Prince Wenxuan and Princess Consort are both in the mansion. Their family can celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival and have a reunion dinner. That's something we can't even look forward to. Seventh Brother, you can't ruin their family's happiness. "
Xuan Tianhua also had no other choice: "Then what do you think we should do?"
The little girl rolled her eyes: "How about … I find you a companion?"
