Once these words came out, everyone's gaze was attracted. Yao shi staggered forward a couple steps. The hand holding Feng Yu Heng trembled.
"Mother." She glanced at Yao shi and seemed to have thought of something. She then looked at the carriage. Sure enough, the curtain was lifted and an old woman walked out of the carriage.
Although this old woman appeared to be dressed like a servant, the material of her clothes was not normal. At least for the people of this mountain village, they would not be able to wear it even if they saved up for a lifetime.
Feng Yu Heng's memories began to churn. Yao shi's dowry, granny Sun, had been detained in the Feng manor after Yao shi and her children had been sent to the mountain village. Without waiting for her to think any further, she saw the old woman rush in front of Yao shi and kneel: "Madam, you have suffered!"
Yao shi felt as if this scene was a lifetime ago. In the past three years, she had not been kneeled to, nor had she come into contact with anyone from the Feng family. In her mind, the Feng manor had long disregarded her and her children's lives. Now that she saw granny Sun, the first thing she thought of was: "Granny was also chased out of the manor?"
Granny Sun's old tears flowed: "No, no. Madam, this old servant came to bring you, young miss, and young master back to the manor! "
"Back to the manor?" It was not just Yao shi. Feng Yu Heng and Feng Zirui were all stunned. Feng Zirui was the first to ask: "Back to what manor?"
Yao shi also followed up and asked: "Granny, what exactly is going on? Why did you come to Xi Ping village? "
Granny Sun grabbed Yao shi's hand and excitedly trembled: "Madam and young miss are celebrating! The Ninth Prince has won the battle. Master and elder madam have called you back to prepare young miss' marriage! Madam and young miss, please get in the carriage and return to the manor! "
The sudden news was like a bomb that dropped down. The mother and children were shocked speechless for a while.
"Mother, be careful!" Feng Yu Heng quickly supported Yao shi, who nearly fell due to the shock. She did her best to control her emotions in the sea of memories. She forced herself to speak calmly: "This happened too suddenly. The three of us, mother and children, have not made any preparations. Would granny please wait for a moment and wait for us to pack up before we set out!"
Sun mama wiped the corners of her eyes and respectfully bowed to Feng Yu Heng. "The Ninth Prince will return to the capital soon. Madam and Miss, please hurry."
Inside the swaying carriage, Feng Yu Heng had no choice but to lean against the window and rest with her eyes closed. However, not a single word of Yao shi and granny Sun's conversation reached her ears.
"This time, it was Old Madam who made the decision to bring Madam, Miss, and Young Master back to the capital. But if we really want to talk about it, it is because of the Ninth Prince's good fortune."
"But … …" Yao shi was a little surprised, "Mr. Heng has been sent to the mountain village for so many years. That marriage has probably been canceled a long time ago, right?"
"It's valid, it's valid!" Granny Sun became happy as soon as she mentioned this matter, "If it wasn't valid, how could the manor send this old servant to pick you up! You don't know, but these past few years, this old servant has been waiting every day for the day madam can return. "Granny Sun's voice was choked with sobs. Yao shi also wiped away her tears.
Feng Yu Heng opened her eyes and asked granny Sun: "Since it was valid, why did the Feng manor dare to send mother and us siblings to this mountain village?"
Granny Sun was startled and glanced at Feng Yu Heng. Her expression was one of astonishment. Yao shi quickly grabbed her hand and explained: "Granny doesn't know. These past few years in the mountains have been too difficult. Fortunately, this child Heng has read some medical books with her maternal grandfather. Otherwise, the three of us would not have been able to survive. But while we did survive, the child's personality has become colder and colder. "
Granny Sun nodded and looked at Feng Yu Heng. Was it just cold? Why did she feel that this young miss's gaze was sharp?
But no matter what was said, this young miss was much better than three years ago. The Feng manor was a place that ate people alive. If she continued to be bullied by others, perhaps she would not be able to survive until she was married and would die.
"This old servant also does not know." Thinking of Feng Yu Heng's previous question, granny Sun said: "At that time, this old servant felt it was strange. Young miss had been engaged to the emperor from a young age, so how could the Feng family be so bold? Now that I think about it, I fear that the Feng family did not think that the Ninth Prince's power would reach such a degree. "
"What kind of power does he have?" Feng Yu Heng was very interested in this original owner's fiance. "
"Young miss may not know, but two years ago, the Ninth Prince was personally appointed by the emperor as the grand marshal of the army and went to the Northwest to fight. Now that the Northwest has been victorious, the Ninth Prince will soon return to the capital."
So it was like that!
Feng Yu Heng did not ask any more questions and continued to close her eyes. Analyzing this matter from the surface, the Feng family was afraid that the Ninth Prince would think of her as his fiance when looking for revenge. Thus, they were in a rush to bring her back to the manor.
But thinking deeper … … She furrowed her brow. She feared that the matter was not so simple.
The distance from the Northwest to the capital was very far. Riding at full speed day and night, it would take at least twenty days. Feng Yu Heng was not familiar with the geography of the Dashun dynasty, but she was still able to distinguish north, south, east, and west. The carriage traveled for around five days before she felt that something was off. They were heading north to the capital, so why did they suddenly turn south?
