Chapter 1838: Messenger of Justice
It was a pity that the difference in power was just too great. Madam Feng naturally ended up in defeat.
Honestly, the fact that she was able to become the main wife and the head of the family showed her ability to see the big picture. She wouldn’t waste her time doing anything severe against a concubine’s daughter. After all, Feng Qingqian was just a concubine daughter, not a concubine son who would take a split of the family property.
Madam Feng just had to prepare dowry for a concubine’s daughter and marry her out. In fact, she could even be used in political marriages for the benefit of the family.
Feng Qingqian’s current state of life was a result of her personality, in addition to being engaged with the second prince as a concubine’s daughter. The other sisters in the house naturally isolated her because of their jealousy.
Feng Qingqian herself was aware of this, but the moment Ying Su came, Ying Su listed all the people in the Feng residence as enemies. Ying Su completely saw herself as a messenger of justice.
Ning Shu stood outside the study, waiting for Feng Chang to come out since she wasn't qualified to enter the study.
"What's the matter now? Are you feeling better already? Come back when you are well," said Feng Chang directly.
Ning Shu: …
"This daughter is all better now ?_?," said Ning Shu.
Ning Shu did not stand on ceremony and said, "Father, this daughter wants to switch courtyards. My current courtyard is a bit leaky."
Feng Chang glanced at Ning Shu. "So you're once again implying that the Feng family has been mistreating you?"
"Father, this daughter doesn’t think so," said Ning Shu with a salute. She was trying to avoid Prince Xin who would be making use of that courtyard as a hiding place once he got injured.
"This daughter just wants to renovate that courtyard, nothing more. It’s a bit damp." Ning Shu said, "In truth, this daughter knows about her own birth. This daughter has always been grateful to Father for giving her a place to stay."
"Oh?" Feng Chang lifted his brows in surprise. "How did you know about that? Did your mother tell you?"
Seeing Ning Shu remain quiet, Feng Chang took a sip of tea and considered things. After a moment of thought, he said, "You can stay with Feiyan for now."
With Feng Feiyan?
Ning Shu said somewhat awkwardly, "Father, during an earlier flareup of the illness, this daughter had pushed Mother to the ground. Now, this daughter is afraid that Second Sister won’t let this daughter live there."
"You, ah. You…” Feng Chang pointed at Ning Shu and said, "No matter what, you have called her ‘mother’ for so many years. No matter how senseless you were, you could not do such a thing. Do you even care about your reputation anymore? The person you pushed is my wife!"
"I'm sorry." Ning Shu curtsied in apology.
She then said, "Father, could you please find a new place for me? Second Sister is probably not willing to stay with me either."
"There’s Orchid Garden. Just stay there." Feng Chang walked away with his hands behind his back.
"Father," Ning Shu called out to Feng Chang.
He turned his head to look at her. "What now?"
Ning Shu: ?_?
His attitude was as if she was too troublesome for him to deal with.
"Father, in a short while, it will be Empress Dowager's birthday. The city will be flooded with people, so Father should send more men to patrol the residence."
Feng Chang just hummed in agreement.
Ning Shu headed back to her courtyard to pack up her things. Ying Su kept ranting in her head.
"Feng Qingqian, you actually apologized to him? You deserve it, you know. You deserve to be bullied. You will bring a lowly death upon yourself." Ying Su was so angry that she was shouting in her head, "I was kind enough to teach the person who bullied you a lesson, but you actually apologized."
"Why are you the one to live in this body? People like you aren't qualified to live at all." Ying Su laughed coldly in quick succession. "Just living humbly and pitifully while your resources are snatched by the strong. You can’t change. A weak person like you isn't qualified to live."
