Feng Jinyao glanced at her and knew what she was thinking, so she asked calmly while reading.
"But you think I'm a bit cruel today?"
"Miss, I don't dare. However, as the old saying goes, the king of hell is easy to meet but the devil is difficult to deal with. This Miss Wen's reputation is among the best in Dongdu City. Why bother to break up with her?"
Feng Jinyao remained silent, but the anger in her heart could not dissipate.
Every time I think of the tragic death of my family, the hatred in my heart becomes even more intense.
Talking about repaying kindness with kindness and forgiving others are all nonsense to her!
If someone offends me, I will offend him. This is the principle she believed in after her rebirth. Whether she said she was not generous enough or said she must retaliate against others, some grudges can only be eliminated with a blood sacrifice.
He put down the book he was holding and asked Yunxu, who was kneeling below, to bring him a cup of hot tea.
"The Feng family looks so beautiful to outsiders, just like this cup of Jingming tea in celadon, which is admired by the world. But the tea inside has gone through thousands of tempers, and now it is like a pot of boiling water to wash the whole body and become the favorite of others.
A gift from the tip of their tongue, but if they could speak, would they be willing to suffer such a crime? In my opinion, the Feng family is just like the Jingming tea leaves. If they don't prepare in advance, sooner or later they will be boiling."
Yun Xu was shocked after hearing this. She had always thought that the Feng family was safe, but she never thought that there might be a storm outside.
"Today, Miss Wen, on the surface, is here to give me a jade, but actually she wants to drag me into trouble. This jade pendant is not an important thing at first, but it is hard to explain why it was brought in by her hand. There is also a legitimate son in the Wen family and this
Miss Wen's brother is here, if they bite back and say that this jade is a token of love between me and one of them, how much can I argue with?"
Yun Xu looked at Feng Jinyao with horror on her face, how could someone from the Wen family have such a vicious plan!
But I saw that she was very calm, as if she was talking about someone else.
She has a mature and prudent temperament about her, and even though she grew up in an environment filled with gold and jade, there is no trace of impatience.
Like the wind in the mountains and the moon in the clear sky, they are both mysterious and difficult to capture.
"Miss..." Yun Xu's voice sounded like she was crying.
Feng Jinyao knew that this girl had the softest heart and had suffered a lot because of this in her previous life.
In the end, he was killed by the Wen family and still spoke for them. Since he chose the path of blood debt repayment, it was destined to be bumpy.
If the people around her are still so indecisive, kind and cowardly, her journey will probably be even more difficult.
That's why today I took advantage of Wen Yuwei's humiliation to give her a good wake-up call.
There are no kind people around her. If you are determined to accompany her, you will have to have a heart of stone.
"Yesterday I had a long, long dream. In the dream, my family members were killed one by one. In the end, even I became a pawn of others, and I didn't end up with anything good. I don't want to suffer such heartbreaking pain again.
I have experienced it once, so anything or anyone that may threaten my Feng family must be dealt with, do you understand?"
Feng Jinyao's words were not loud, but they fell on Yun Xu's mind like a carving knife. She was not stupid, so she naturally understood what the young lady meant, but...
"In the past, Feng Jinyao only wanted to lie in the happy nest of the Feng family and be the young lady admired by the world. Now Feng Jinyao just wants to protect her family's safety for the rest of her life, even if her reputation is bad and her methods are ruthless, she will not hesitate.
"
At this moment, Yun Xu felt her firmness. The young lady was still the same young lady, but her temperament had completely changed. She didn't know whether this change was good or bad, but she understood that the young lady would never be able to go back to her original state.
After a while, Yunxu's eyes became clear.
When he raised his head to look at Feng Jinyao, he felt more like death.
"Miss, this slave has been serving you since I was brought into the house when I was five years old. You have never been beaten or scolded in these years. Not only that, you also taught your slave how to read and write. You are my master, and you are your master.
My benefactor, I swear here today that if I betray you in the future, I will strike you with five thunderbolts from the sky, and I will be reincarnated as a pig or a dog in my next life!"
It’s so conclusive that one has to admire her loyalty!
"Don't worry, Miss. After today, Yunxu will no longer be the same Yunxu as before. Since Miss wants to be the guardian of the Feng family, Yunxu will stay with Miss even if she dies, protecting you from wind and rain."
Feng Jinyao smiled happily. She was lucky to have such a loyal servant accompanying her along the way.
Outside Dongdu City, the pink-white city wall towers into the clouds.
The moat is more than ten feet wide, and willow trees are planted on both sides. Unfortunately, it is approaching the end of the year, and the willows at this moment do not have green branches, but look desolate.
At this moment, there were few pedestrians on the official road, and only a group of horse-drawn carriages were driving towards the capital in a dusty manner.
The carriage compartment is not big, and there is no gold or jade embedded in it. It looks like an ordinary carriage, except for the word "white" written on the lantern hanging above it.
Sitting inside was Shirasaburo's family who came to celebrate his birthday.
A group of people entered the city from the south gate. When the leader of the city guard saw his customs clearance document, he immediately smiled and bowed his head to please him. After receiving a heavy brocade bag, he even skipped the inspection and immediately let them go.
Ms. Shen was sitting very seriously at the moment, with her head held high. In her opinion, although her status was not comparable to that of those powerful nobles from aristocratic families, it was not comparable to that of the common people on the road.
Naturally, she had to put on airs to show off her status as the Bai Shen family.
My daughter Bai Sihan who was traveling with me also felt cold, and the fatigue from the journey disappeared.
Full of curiosity about Dongdu City, I was about to open the curtain further when I heard the hearty laughter of several young men and the sound of galloping horse hooves coming from the other side.
"Feng Er, you kid took advantage of your Qianliju and robbed all the prey of my brothers. Why don't you go to Changchun Building to set up a table and treat everyone to a good meal?"
"Su Cheng, if you are not as good as others, go back and practice more horse riding and archery. You will not lose your reputation as General Su. Be careful, he will hang you under the beam and whip you with a riding crop again!"
"Feng Jinlin! You can't spit out ivory from your little dog's mouth! When I chase you and don't beat you all over the ground for tusks, my surname will not be Su!"
"Hahahaha, then you should catch up with me first and then talk about it!"
A group of seven or eight people, all with good horses, galloped past on the carriage road on the other side.
Bai Sihan didn't see the appearance of those people clearly, only the black figure in front of him was the most dazzling.
"The Emperor's feet can actually ride horses in the street?"
"They are traveling on a carriage road. If there is no charioteer to block the street, the horses can ride." Shen explained patiently. Bai Sihan next to her had such a look on her face that she really gained experience.
