The person who came was a confidant of the Chang family, Mrs. Yingguo's wife.
Facing that unsmiling face, Feng Min felt inexplicably panicked: "...Mama Liao, why are you here?"
The servant girl surnamed Liao said: "I came to your house to take a look at your house as instructed by my wife, so as to avoid any omissions and delay the happy event. I will stay with Mrs. Feng here until the wedding sedan arrives tomorrow."
Yesterday, Feng Min might have taken this move as a sign of importance to her side room, but now she became nervous.
Are you here to keep an eye on her?
Seeing Granny Liao looking at the female envoy beside her, Feng Min could only signal the female envoy to stay away.
When they were alone, Grandma Liao asked: "I heard that the Chang family girl also came to buy a box for Madam Feng today?"
"yes……"
"What did she say to Madam Feng at the table?" Mother Liao's eyes were full of doubts, and she lowered her voice and asked, "Did she suspect Madam Feng?"
Feng Min was slightly shocked - were the people of the Ming family watching her every move?
"No..." she said as calmly as possible: "She just made some harsh remarks about me and my grandmother... and didn't mention anything else."
If she bluntly said that Chang Suining was suspicious of her and mentioned the injury on her hand... would the Ming family still keep her alive?!
This thought that suddenly appeared in his mind made Feng Min suddenly break into a cold sweat.
Grandma Liao didn't know whether she believed it or not, so she just nodded slightly and explained: "I will leave the cabinet tomorrow. To prevent unintended consequences, Madam Feng should stay in her yard and prepare to be married."
Feng Min nodded in agreement.
Grandma Liao watched her walk away and frowned slightly.
That night, Feng Min was lying on the bed tossing and turning. The joy and expectation of the previous two days were no longer there, replaced by anxiety and uneasiness.
…
At this moment, Chang Sui Ning is still awake.
On her way to the Feng family during the day, she was still thinking, if Feng Min was really an insider or even a conspirator, why did she dare to agree to marry into the Ming family? Wasn't she afraid of being silenced?
But when she saw Feng Min, who looked happy but silent and tense, she suddenly understood.
When people are in extreme panic and stress, especially those who are unwise and inexperienced, they can often only see the only road in front of them, and they just want to move forward along that road, especially the road they long for.
It's been a long time - it's like being in a blind dream, unable to wake up easily.
But if someone reminds me and breaks the illusion, this fragile dream will immediately shatter and collapse.
…
Under extreme tension and exhaustion, Feng Min fell asleep briefly for a quarter of an hour.
After returning from Dayun Temple, she could hardly sleep at night. Whenever she closed her eyes, she would dream of Changsun Xuan's master and servant before they died.
But this time, she dreamed about the scene before her death.
The person whose neck was strangled in the dream became her, and the hand shrank, making it impossible for her to breathe.
Feng Min opened his eyes suddenly, sat up, and gasped for air.
She had woken up from the dream, but the fear of dying in the dream still enveloped her.
In the midst of endless panic, Feng Min subconsciously raised his hand and looked at the peace charm tightly held in his hand. The reminder in the girl's words and eyes flashed through his mind again.
And the person who pinched her neck in the dream just now was Mrs. Chang of Duke Ying Guo... the person who would become her mother-in-law tomorrow.
Mother-in-law, getting married...
Will the Ming family really treat her as kindly as her grandmother said?
Grandma said that as long as she makes good use of that handle, pays attention to her advances and retreats, and gives birth to children for the Ming Crown Prince, her life will get better and better... Is it true?
Speaking of grandma, grandma clearly knew that Chang Sui Ning had been here today, so why didn’t she ask her about it afterwards?
Are you too busy with tomorrow's affairs to ask her?
Holding the light in the room, Feng Min glanced at the hourglass and saw that the second watch had just started.
She quickly got out of bed and put on her clothes.
"Where are you going, young lady?" The maid standing outside heard the noise and came in.
"I'm going to find my grandmother." Feng Min said, "I'm leaving home tomorrow... I'm going to find my grandmother and talk to her."
The maid did not doubt that she had it and went with her.
Feng Min felt too much uneasiness.
While she was in fear and panic, she also suspected that Chang Suining's words today had ulterior motives and that he was plotting to take advantage of her.
She needed her grandmother to help her analyze all this, and she needed her grandmother to tell her clearly that she was too nervous and was thinking wildly.
Her mind was in a mess, and she urgently needed her grandmother, who had experienced turmoil and was good at seeing people's hearts, to help her sort it out.
When Feng Min came to Xie's residence, he only heard the maid guarding the corridor say: "...The prince is in the small Buddhist hall at the moment. Can you ask your maid to let him know?"
"No need, I'll go there myself." Feng Min said, then looked at the maid beside him: "You can wait here too, I want to talk to my grandmother alone."
There are some words she can't let others hear even half a word of.
The maid responded.
Feng Min went to the small Buddhist hall alone.
The Xie family lived as a widow, so a small Buddhist hall was set up in the courtyard because they worshiped Buddha all the year round.
Feng Min was thinking that if her grandmother was still in the Buddhist hall so late at night, she must be burning incense and chanting Buddha's name to pray for her safety and success in the future, right?
Although her grandmother treated her harshly, she had been taught by her grandmother since she was a child. She was her grandmother's only granddaughter, and after she married into the Ming family, she also benefited her grandmother a lot...
These are the reasons why Feng Min firmly believes that Xie Shi will always think about her.
At least she still believed so until she heard the conversation in the Buddhist hall with her own ears——
Feng Min chose to hide at first because she saw Aunt Liao walking out of the Buddhist hall.
Why is Grandma Liao here?
Seeing the figure walking away, Feng Min, who was hiding under the small window on the side of the Buddhist hall, was about to go see his grandmother when he heard Grandma Qiao's dissatisfied voice coming from the window.
"... He's just a servant, but he dares to threaten the Lord!"
threaten?
Feng Min was startled. Is Grandma Liao threatening her grandmother?
Immediately afterwards, Xie's cold voice came from the window.
"Today Chang Sui Ning has been here, Min'er Yuqian, maybe her flaws have been exposed... Fortunately, she will leave the cabinet tomorrow, and she is destined to have no chance to say anything. In this case, this accident will only happen to me.
, it is normal for the Chang family to ask someone to come and remind you."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! A strange feeling arose in Feng Min's heart, why did she mean that she was "destined to have no chance to say anything more"... Why did her grandmother's tone sound so weird?
Soon, she understood where this "weird" feeling came from.
"...The words were so unpleasant, and they were not just a reminder... In the past, Mrs. Ying Guo Gong would not have dared to speak to the prince like this, let alone a servant woman!"
"You also know that now you can only call me Jun Jun." Xie Shi sneered: "Now that I am in this situation, there is nothing to criticize. As long as my son's promotion can be settled as soon as possible, a few unpleasant words
What does it matter?"
"But wasn't it all because of her Chang family that the Junjun was demoted?" The servant girl, who had been with Jie family for many years and was used to living a decent life, felt extremely depressed: "Master Lang's promotion was also done in exchange for a girl.
...It’s not like the prince is asking her to do something!”
"I have found out clearly that the Prince of Ming Dynasty is now inhumane... I don't know how many days I can keep my position as Crown Prince. What kind of airs does the Chang family put on in front of the Lord!"
Under the small window, Feng Min's eyes widened in shock.
Can't be...humane?!
What does it mean?
Then why did she get married?
"Then there's no need to argue with her." Jie Shi still just sneered without getting angry: "It's most practical to be angry with a woman who is about to lose power in the Ming family. We can successfully get the benefits we deserve.
.”
As for the days of watching jokes to relieve anger, that will come later.
After hearing this, Aunt Qiao no longer complained about the attitude of the servant girl of the Ming family. But after a moment, she couldn't bear to say: "...But since the eldest son of the Ming family has become inhumane, it will be impossible for the girl to marry him."
If you rely on your heirs to protect yourself, won’t you lose even the last chance?”
"This is her fate." Xie Shi slowly turned the prayer beads in her hand, her tone steady: "She chose the wrong path, no one else to blame. The Feng family gave birth to her and raised her, and her life belongs to the Feng family. Now she can still
Getting a little help for her father is not in vain for the Feng family's love for her birth."
Feng Min felt like falling into an ice cave when he heard it.
In the Buddhist hall, Mr. Xie knelt down in front of the Buddha, closed his eyes and recited a sentence to the Buddha: "...I only hope that tomorrow this evil obstacle will be sent away, so that my Feng family can be peaceful. May my son's official career be smooth and smooth, and may Hui'er be in the Imperial College."
I can succeed in my studies, and one day I will be able to take the imperial examination and high school, and I will be the lintel of the Feng family..."
"..."
Tears rolled down Feng Min's eyes, but underneath the tears were sarcasm.
Therefore, her grandmother had long known that the Ming family would not treat her well and would even silence her... But instead of reminding her, her grandmother deceived her in every possible way!
Just to trade her for her father’s official career!
Grandma is devoted to planning for her father, her brother, and the Feng family...but what about her?
She should be abandoned by the Feng family and her grandmother... Should she sacrifice her life to get the last bit of help for the Feng family!
What did she do wrong?
The reason why she wanted to marry the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty was because her grandmother had told her since she was a child that she wanted to marry high. It was her grandmother who brought her to Mrs. Ying Guogong and the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty at first, which made her miss her!
Feng Min suddenly realized that the path she took was arranged by her grandmother...
But when something unexpected happened on this road, her grandmother immediately chose to abandon her!
"It's getting late. There are some happy events to be held tomorrow. Your Majesty, please go back and rest early..."
happy event?
Feng Min smiled silently and sarcastically, raised her hand to wipe away her tears, turned around and quickly disappeared into the night.
She took her maid back to her courtyard and looked at the words "Double Happiness" posted on the window lattice. She felt that the previous joy was no longer there, but instead there was a cold chill.
This happy event is not a wedding at all, but a funeral for her.
Feng Min didn't know how he lay back on the bed.
In order to let her have a good rest so that she could be in good spirits when she gets married tomorrow, the maid turned off the light in the inner room and withdrew.
Feng Min still held the peace charm tightly in his hand.
Ironically, the person who reminded her that this marriage would cost her her life was not her close family, but an outsider with a past and a new grudge.
What should she do?
Go tell your parents?
But at heart, my father is the same person as my grandmother. How could he give up the official position he was about to obtain and even offend the Ming family because of her "evil obstacle"?
Her father would probably just slap her hard and drag her to discuss the matter with her grandmother.
As for her cowardly and incompetent mother, she would probably just shed tears and faint from fear, and there was no way she could do anything to help her.
Feng Min gritted his teeth tremblingly.
The only one who can save her is herself.
Once she enters the high walls of the Ming family, she will be trapped in a cage from which it is impossible to escape!
escape?
right……
Instead of waiting to marry into the Ming family and then try to escape, why not escape now?
If you run away now, you may still have a chance to survive!
This is her only way to survive now!
In the middle of the night, the first frost is covering the tiles, and the sky and the earth are silent.
Feng Min walked out of the bedroom with a heavy bundle in his arms. Without disturbing the sleeping maid, he walked quickly towards the door of the courtyard.
She tried her best to open the courtyard door as gently as possible, but as soon as the door was opened, she met a pair of cold and cloudy eyes.
"ah!"
Feng Min screamed in fright and staggered back two steps.
"Where are you going, Mrs. Feng, late at night?" Mother Liao asked expressionlessly.
When she came out of Jie's small Buddhist hall, she saw Feng Min hiding in a panic.
This little lady is too immature and stupid. If she wants to escape now, there is no chance.
"I...I can't sleep. I will leave the cabinet tomorrow. I want to go find my mother and talk to her again!" Feng Min said this with a pale face and trembled, and ran out.
Grandma Liao did not stop her, but looked at the maid who came out after hearing the noise.
"Girl?" The maid ran over quickly: "Mama Liao...is she my girl?"
"Ms. Feng said she was going to talk to her mother." Grandma Liao turned to look in the direction Feng Min left, seemingly puzzled: "But for some reason, Mrs. Feng seems to be holding a baggage in her arms..."
burden?
What is the girl going to do with her baggage late at night!
The maid was shocked and said hurriedly: "My maid, go and have a look!"
Aunt Liao took a few steps forward when two black shadows appeared.
Chang had asked her to arrange this in advance to prevent accidents.
"Go." Mother Liao said: "Remember, you have to be clean. After all, people escape on their own. The Feng family's maid also saw it with her own eyes. Mrs. Feng didn't want to get married. She escaped to nowhere alone late at night.
It has nothing to do with our Ming family."
"yes!"
Two black figures left in response.
There was no trace of pity in the corners of Granny Liao's slightly drooped mouth.
Since you are ignorant and refuse to get married obediently, even if you kidnap the person back, you will still have to see the person tomorrow. Once you yell for something, it will not be worth it.
In the past, this life was temporarily kept because there was no suitable name, but now that people take the initiative to "escape", it is different.
The person was lost in the Feng family and cannot be found. The Feng family cannot blame her wife.
On the contrary, if she couldn't pick up anyone for the wedding sedan tomorrow, she would have to ask the Feng family for someone.
The only strange thing is that the Feng family is humble and they are not lucky enough to be in-laws with the Ming family.
Grandma Liao looked in the direction where Feng Min left, with some emotion in her eyes.
It's not a good thing if a stupid person suddenly stops being stupid... He could have lived a few more days.
…
In the dark, Feng Min hugged her bundle and opened the side door of the backyard in panic.
At the same moment, the two black figures came quickly, and one of them suddenly pulled out the long knife behind him. There was a sound of unsheathing, and a cold light suddenly appeared.
