Chapter 498 Return to Feng Mansion

Xiao Nianzhi had lived in the palace for several months before, but now he didn't want to go back.

So, when Yan Xingxuan asked, she hurriedly waved her hand: "No, still no, I'm going to Feng's house to see my grandpa, and I have to go there tomorrow for my second cousin's birthday."

Mr. Feng Er has been taking care of himself recently, so Xiao Nianzhi takes the time to visit him from time to time.

Now that the preliminary production of the telescope has been completed, Xiao Nianzhi is free again and has to stay in Feng Mansion for a few days.

She had agreed before, but never got around to it.

During this period of time, Mr. Feng Er has been diligently taking care of his health, just so that Xiao Nianzhi can go there and stay with him early.

Xiao Nianzhi thought that the cement matter should wait a few more days.

The production team's donkeys still have time to rest, so Xiao Nianzhi decided to take a few days off.

In addition, it is the birthday of the second cousin of the Feng family. Although the Feng family does not have a big event, the family still has to sit down and have a meal together.

Yan Xingxuan also knew that the little girl was bored in the palace.

So, it’s normal not to want to go now.

The two of them soon went to the palace to offer treasures, and the other went to Feng Mansion to stay for a while.

Xiao Nianzhi first went back to Xiao Mansion to tidy up briefly, freshened up, and then went to Feng Mansion with simple luggage.

Because he had sent someone with a message in advance, Mr. Fengji was waiting at the gate early in the morning.

The Feng family has no officials yet, they are just imperial merchants, so they are not as sophisticated as those powerful families in the capital.

Moreover, when my family comes back, what’s wrong with opening the front door?

So, the front door is wide open to welcome the children home!

Seeing Mr. Feng Er standing there waiting for who knows how long, Xiao Nianzhi felt helpless and distressed.

After getting off the carriage, I went to help him: "Grandpa, didn't I tell you that you will be here soon? No need to wait. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of yourself."

Mr. Fengji actually enjoys the feeling of being educated by his children.

This will make him feel that he still has close family members around him.

Sometimes, Mr. Feng Er would even wonder in a daze, if his daughter was still alive and saw him like this, would she be like Xiao Nianzhi, feeling distressed but helplessly trying to persuade him.

Thinking of this possibility, Mr. Feng Er felt sour and bitter.

The grandfather and grandson entered the house chatting and laughing.

There are other members of the Feng family who are also in the mansion. Mr. Feng and Mrs. Feng are currently idle in the mansion and have nothing to do. All matters are left to their descendants to worry about.

When they heard that Xiao Nianzhi was coming, they didn't compete with Mr. Feng Er and came directly, but they also sat in the banquet living room and waited.

As soon as Xiao Nianzhi came over, he received a bunch of gifts.

Speaking of which...

Xiao Nianzhi's current net worth is already very rich.

What Mr. Toyoji said before was not just talk.

When Xiao Nianzhi came to visit him before, he had already transferred many shops, villages, and fields to Xiao Nianzhi one after another.

Except for some people from other places who are not easy to operate, Xiao Nianzhi's current net worth is probably ranked high in the capital.

In addition, every time she comes to Feng Mansion, other members of the Feng family will give money simply and rudely.

They were full of guilt for Xiao's mother, and now they wanted to make more compensation.

If it would make them feel better, Xiao Nianzhi would not refuse such kindness.

This time when I came here, Mrs. Feng gave me a bunch of jewelry and jades, big and small, and some of the rough stones that had not been polished out.

It's not a big box, but it's really valuable.

Looking at so many things, Xiao Nianzhi felt inexplicably embarrassed about tomorrow's birthday gift to Fenghe's second cousin.

Will the preparation be a little perfunctory?

Xiao Nianzhi thought uncertainly, but do you want a gift just for one night?

Is it a little too difficult?

Not wanting to embarrass himself, Xiao Nianzhi gave up his random thoughts and prepared to leave it at that.

However, after having more contact with the Feng family, Xiao Nianzhi felt that soap, soap and lip balm could be left to them to run.

Thinking of this, Xiao Nianzhi tentatively talked about this matter with several elders of the Feng family.

When Old Mrs. Feng heard this, she took Xiao Nianzhi's hand and smiled: "Tell your cousin directly about this and let him do the work. We don't have to worry about it. We just spend money."

Xiao Nianzhi was embarrassed and just ignored it: "Wouldn't that be bad?"

Mrs. Feng waved her hand nonchalantly: "It's okay, he is my cousin, so he should."

Xiao Nianzhi's future energy will probably be spent on the improvement of cement and seeds. She really doesn't have the energy and time to run these things. It would be good to leave it to others. She can just wait for the dividends.

If the Feng family doesn't find it troublesome, then Xiao Nianzhi doesn't need to be too polite.

After this matter was agreed upon, everyone started talking about family matters again.

Because of the Song family's rebellion, every government in the capital has now closed its doors, and even banquets are rarely held.

Unless it's the birthday of an old lady from some family or a birthday of that old man, there is no other way, so I just bite the bullet and do it.

Other people’s flower viewing and outing banquets are actually not bad this year. Let’s hold them again next year!

Speaking of these things, Mrs. Feng shook her head: "What a sin, you can't live a good life, what are you doing?"

If there are more, it's hard to say. If the walls have ears, it would not be good if Concubine Hui is further implicated.

Xiao Nianzhi didn't know what to say about this.

This is how the struggle for power has been going on since ancient times.

If you don't step up, someone else will step on you and step on you. What can you do?

This matter about the Song family...

Xiao Nianzhi felt that it was just a matter of time.

After all, he was pushed to such a position, and now if he works hard, he might still be able to become wealthy.

However, when the prince comes to power, they will really have no chance.

However, it is just that the status is not new, and it does not delay living a wealthy life.

Moreover, if he has the ability, the prince may also use it.

But this kind of thing is a mystery to the authorities.

The Feng family's diet tends to be heavy on salt and oil.

It is very rich for daily consumption, but of course not everyone is so heavy on it.

A little girl like Feng Ning likes to eat light meals.

Moreover, she studied medicine under the guidance of others and knew that a diet heavy in oil and salt was not that healthy.

But everyone is used to it and can't change their taste easily, and they are not very willing to listen to this.

Feng Ning had no choice, so he stopped trying to persuade her.

For such a heavy food, it was okay to eat it occasionally, but Xiao Nianzhi couldn't help eating it every day.

When she fell asleep at night, she was thinking, how about...

Can you cook by yourself these two days?

Grandpa's body still needs a light diet and proper nutritional supplements.

Heavy oil and salt will only increase the burden on his body.

The next day, the weather was fine. Fenghe was currently studying in the Imperial College, so it was a bad idea to take a day off and go back home for his birthday.

However, he can come back at night.

After a while, get up early and take the carriage back.

Therefore, the family's birthday party is prepared in the evening.

During the day, Xiao Nianzhi chatted with Grandpa Feng, drank tea, listened to plays, and enjoyed life peacefully.
