Chapter 137: Two-Faced and Three-Knives (Pink Ticket 500 Additional Chapter)

  Feng Wanqing remained calm and continued to drink her ginseng soup, only straightening up after finishing the last drop in the bowl. She smoothed out her hair with a composed expression and looked at Wang Wenxiu: "With wolves in front and tigers behind, Young Mistress is an intelligent person and should know what to do. I'm afraid it's more thorough than I thought. Since I've already agreed, I won't be a person who doesn't keep their word. Just give me orders."

  The implication of this sentence is that this matter was planned by Wang Wenxi... She listened, her heart burning with anger, and glanced at Shen Muqing with some resentment, then smiled: "Fifth sister misunderstood! I'm just concerned about you, otherwise, why would I take the opportunity to ask you while sending off my father-in-law? I also wanted to hear your thoughts..."

  "Send Grandfather away?" Feng Wanqing was shocked.

  "Really!" Wang Wenxi smiled and said, "Your second aunt is afraid you'll be taken advantage of, so she had someone deliver a message to the Prince's residence, wanting Princess Fuhua to put in a good word for you. But the princess said it was too late and told them to come back tomorrow!"

  Feng Wanqing's face suddenly turned very unsightly and she stood there in a daze.

  Wang Wenxi had an unseen look.

  "I now understand the meaning of Fifth Sister, and it's also good to advise Madame Tai. Wang Wenxi smiled and stood up, "When the time comes, Fifth Sister will clarify things in front of Madame Tai and the two gentlemen Min and Yuan, and the responsibility will be gone."

  "This matter, I'll trouble you to take care of it!" Shen Muqing said politely and sent Wang Wenxi away. He turned around and pulled Feng Wanqing aside to whisper: "What do you plan to do?"

  Feng Wanqing seemed to still be reeling from the blow of being unwilling to come forward for Gongzhu, and it wasn't until Shen Muqing spoke up that she finally replied: "Third Young Mistress, rest assured, I won't ruin things for you!"

  "I didn't mean that." Shen Muqing sighed, "Now both the Feng and Liang families want to push the responsibility, your situation is worrying, I just wanted to ask you, do you have any plans?"

  Feng Wanqing was very surprised.

  "Otherwise, come with me!" Shen Muqing smiled sincerely, "I'll arrange for you to go to Jiangnan!"

  Feng Wanqing thought for a moment and nodded seriously: "Thank you, Third Young Mistress!"

  It's settled then, Shen Muqing took out a few more clothes for Feng Wanqing: "When we go out to meet people later, we should at least look decent!"

  Feng Wanqing nodded at her with tears in her eyes and followed Liu Chun to change her clothes.

  "Are we really taking her with us?"

  "Shen Mu gave her a cold, stern glare: 'You're not allowed to discuss this matter again!'"

  Ying hastily and solemnly replied "Yes".

  Shen Muqing glanced at the grandfather clock in the eastern wing: "How much longer until the hour of Shen?"

  The British rushed over and replied: "There are still four quarters of an hour!"

  Shen Mu nodded and said: "We should also pack up, after Mr. Ouyang and the madam have finished talking, we should head back to the Shen residence!"

  The British nodded and left.

  Wang Wenxi returned to the Idle Crane Hall, where Madame Feng was sitting on a velvet stool beside Old Mistress's kang, looking rather dispirited. Old Mistress was frowning at her. Seeing Wang Wenxi enter, she said impatiently, "Why are you back so late? That eldest young mistress of the Feng family has been clamoring to take Feng Danchun away! Take Feng Danchun to the Flower Hall immediately to apologize to the two elders."

  Feng Jia's wife is also a well-known capable daughter-in-law in Kyoto, her ability to manage the household and handle matters is unparalleled. It seems that Feng's family couldn't take it anymore and was persuaded, so they came to beg Lady Tai to release them!

  Wang Wenxi's eyes flashed with a hint of disdain, but in an instant she became respectful and gentle: "It was the fault of Sun's daughter-in-law, who said a few words to her father-in-law on the road."

  Old Lady was taken aback, saying: "What's the time now, you still have the heart to chat with that little public servant." After finishing, she paused for a moment and asked somewhat anxiously: "What did you say?"

  Wang Wenxiu gave Feng's wife a glance.

  "Speak up!" The old lady said unhappily, "You don't need to look at her, if she had the ability, would I have to personally deal with these trivial matters in this household? What did that old man say?"

  Tears welled up in Feng's eyes.

  "There's nothing to say." Wang Wenxi smiled faintly, "In other words, after Feng's matter came out, my second brother and sister immediately sent their personal maid to report to the Marquis' residence. It seems that Madame Feng has come for this very reason!"

  That princess has always liked Feng Wanqing, Jiang Shuangrui clearly knows it, but secretly reports to the princess, and now the big nanny of the Feng family is making a fuss about taking people away... Is she trying to shift the responsibility to the Liang family?

  Old Lady was so angry that her whole body was shaking, and she pointed at Wang Wenxian with a trembling finger: "Go, go to the Third Young Mistress's place and call Feng Dancheng to the Flower Hall, hand the person over to the Shen family..."

  Feng bit her lower lip tightly and didn't dare make a sound.

  Let myself go and be this bad guy?

  Wang Wenxi smiled coldly in her heart and said softly, "Grandmother, Minister Min is Third Uncle's fellow graduate, and Minister Yuan is Third Uncle's teacher. At this time, if I go alone... it would be too impolite!"

  Madam Tai had never thought that Wang Wenxian would refuse and was stunned there.

  Wang Wenxian's smile was even more humble: "Grandmother, at this time you personally went, representing our Liang family's attitude towards this matter, it is exactly when big things are made small and small things are done!"

  Not bad, if he doesn't show up again, Shen's family might think they're being bullied and get even angrier... It's all because the Feng family produced such a despicable offspring, making the Liang family suffer in vain.

  Old Lady ordered Liu Niang: "Go and get that ice blue bottom T-shaped flower patterned jacket for me, I'll go meet these two seniors."

  Wang Wenxi accompanied the old lady to the flower hall with a smile in her eyes.

  Three men met, exchanged formal greetings, and the maids refilled their tea. Only then did everyone sit down to talk.

  "I'm so angry," said the old lady with a sorrowful face, "her father has been away fighting enemies for years, I'm just a woman at home, I don't have much experience, and I haven't taught my child well!"

  The three men couldn't help but be modest and smiled: "Madam is being too self-critical."

  "Ugh, my heart is really aching!" The old lady said, taking out her handkerchief to wipe the corners of her eyes. "Our family's Ji Min, who grew up by my side since childhood, what kind of character does he have? I'm not even sure! Let alone doing something as shameful as this, even if we wanted to arrange a marriage for him, he would say: 'I want to marry first.' You see, such a good child, how did he change so suddenly after meeting the fifth daughter of the Feng family?"

  Three people looked at each other in dismay, and Mr. Qin and Yuan Yu's eyes fell on Mr. Ouyang - after all, he was the one playing the leading role, while the two of them were just there to hit the gongs and drive away the monkeys.

  "Indeed!" Mr. Ouyang also sighed, "At first, your wife also said that her brother's character was good. Who knew that after marrying over for less than two years, he completely changed!"

  Madam covered her face and wept: "To say it, I didn't manage the household strictly enough... It's also our fault that Ji Min and Mu Qing are too honest with people. Who would have thought to guard against their own cousin? This allowed that despicable person who would stop at nothing for wealth and glory to take advantage of us... We, the Liang family, owe an apology to Old Master Shen. No matter how angry he is, it's justified. But rather than destroying ten temples, don't destroy this marriage... Two esteemed gentlemen, one is Ji Min's fellow graduate, the other is Ji Min's teacher, neither are outsiders, please help us speak on our behalf in front of Old Master Shen... Young people make mistakes, as long as they know what's wrong and... [To be continued, click next page!]
