Chapter 260 (2/2)

Feng Yu Heng did not remain any longer. On the way back, she advised Huang Quan: “Take care of the things I promised them when we get back to the manor. We must keep a close eye on this side. Once someone with some talent appears, they must be brought back to the manor immediately. Also, send someone to the government to register them. I will write a letter to seventh brother at a later time, and I will need you to send it to him.”

The two pondered over the happenings of the day, as they rushed back towards Tong Sheng pavilion. When they were passing by the Feng manor’s entrance, the carriage slowed down, and the driver asked her: “Young miss, will we be going back to our own side or will we stop at the Feng manor?”

Feng Yu Heng originally wanted to return to Tong Sheng pavilion, but when she lifted the curtain and looked into the Feng manor, her mind was changed “Stop! I will be going to the Feng manor.”

She lifted the curtain and exited the carriage. At the entrance of the Feng manor, she saw some servants throwing all sorts of things out. Of the things, there were fabrics, accessories, and there was also a variety of toys.

Alongside the things that had been thrown out, there was an unfamiliar maidservant. The maidservant’s face was blue with anger, as she pointed at the servants of the Feng manor and angrily shouted: “You had best know what’s good for you!”

The servants of the Feng manor did not dare show any weakness, responding: “We are simply acting out our orders. If miss has any anger, go vent it to fourth young miss. There is no point in getting angry with us.”

The maidservant stood outside the manor. Putting her hands on her hips, she pointed at them and loudly said: “Then just pass the message along to your fourth young miss to not be too arrogant. The thing Prince Li lacks the least is women, and there are plenty of secondary princesses. She really should not treat it as anything serious. Right now, Prince Li is interested in her, but who knows when that will disappear. You actually dare throw out the things gifted by his Highness? If these things are thrown out right now, there won’t be any more in the future. She had best not regret it!”

After saying this, she waved to a driver outside the manor. The driver quickly went over and brought the things into the carriage. The maidservant climbed into the carriage and quickly departed.

Huang Quan clicked her tongue, “When did the fourth young miss become so daring?”

Feng Yu Heng shrugged, “Who knows! Prince Li most likely did something that was not to her liking, so she is throwing a tantrum.” She suddenly recalled the matter of preparing food cooked with medicine for Feng Jin Yuan’s return to the manor. At that time, Fen Dai had picked up the task that had been pushed to her, saying that she would have the fifth prince invite Mo Bu Fan and the imperial chefs. “Thinking about it, there is probably a problem with Feng Jin Yuan’s welcoming banquet.”

Putting on a smile, she turned around and led Huang Quan towards the entrance of the county princess’ manor.

The Feng family’s servants looked at each other in dismay, as they thought that having land of their own is best. Being able to leave after taking a step inside was something only the second young miss dared to do.

At the same time, in Yu Lan courtyard’s garden, Feng Fen Dai was putting on her shoes while seated on the snow-covered ground. Her small face was blue and purple from the cold. While putting on her shoes, she loudly whined: “Great aunty, I’m done with learning! I don’t want to continue learning! For the sake of being favored, I learned this tiring type of dance, but what about him? He does not even help me invite some imperial chefs. Why should I bother wasting my time earning his favor?”

Standing before her was the one who wore thin clothes despite the cold, Hong Yun. Compared to Fen Dai’s face that had turned blue from the cold, Hong Yun’s face appeared completely accustomed to the snow. At this time, her feet were bare and standing in snow, but she did not appear to be the slightest bit cold.

“A calm heart is most important to this type of dance. Do not be too irritable. Even if you encounter a large problem, your heart must remain like ice, stable and calm.”

“I can’t remain calm!” How could Fen Dai learn even a fraction of Hong Yun’s graceful bearing, as she loudly shouted: “I’m done with learning. Leave the manor! I will double the amount of money, so never come back again!”

“Is fourth young miss serious?”

“Of course I am serious!”

“Then that’s fine.” Hong Yun nodded, “I am not originally from the capital. Once I have left, I will never return. If fourth young miss comes to regret it, you will never be able to find Hong Yun. In this world, I am the only one who knows how to dance this dance. Fourth young miss, do not regret it.”

Saying this, she began to leave the courtyard without a hint of hesitation. Fen Dai never thought that this person actually would not even say a few words to advise her nor beg to remain. For a while, she was frozen in place. Forgetting about putting on her shoes, she only thought about what Hong Yun had said.

If she let her go, she would truly never be able to learn this type of dance, then his Highness the fifth prince…

“Wait a moment!” She changed her mind, “I still want to learn this dance, but my mind was not tranquil today. I will rest for one day.”

Hearing this, Hong Yun laughed. Turning her head back, she asked: “When has fourth young miss’ mind ever been tranquil?”

“You…” Hong Yun really was more and more impudent, “In the end, I am still the Feng family’s fourth young miss, and you are just a dance. How dare you speak to me like this?”

Hong Yun was not frightened by her in the slightest. Instead, her face was expressionless like ice, but she still slowly walked back and asked Fen Dai: “Does fourth young miss think me walking around barefoot in the snow and wearing thin clothes is beautiful or not?”

Fen Dai was startled. She did not know why she would ask this question, but she still nodded: “Beautiful.”

“Then think about it. Even if the one you marry is not his Highness the fifth prince, so long as you have learned this ability, what man could reject you?”

Hong Yun’s words caused Fen Dai’s eyes to light up, as her hope soared once again.

At this time, Hong Yun brought something out of her sleeve pocket and handed it to her “I will give you this.”
