. When he was around, she wanted to stick closer to him. When he wasn't, she would think about him. But she was unsure, not knowing if she really liked him or not."Your Highness, do you like me"Feng L...Feng Lingxi hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Does she not want to see anyone or just me"
Zhao's expression was tangled, staring at Feng Lingxi, she remained silent for a long time.
It seems you don't want to see me. Well, then I won't force it.
"Xi'er, you can just live in your mother's courtyard. I'll make a place for you there, it'll remain just as your mother used to live."
As soon as Feng Aotian finished speaking, Zhao Shi spoke up.
"Master, the courtyard over there has already been demolished. Now General's Mansion doesn't have that courtyard anymore."
Feng Aotian's face changed drastically, and he roared, "Who let you touch her courtyard Who gave you the right to do this"
A slap landed on Zhao Shi's face. She covered her face, looking at Feng Aotien in disbelief. For years, she had endured humiliation and made concessions in the General's Mansion, taking care of his backyard affairs for him. Didn't she even have the right to change a courtyard
"General, don't forget, I am the mistress of this house now. I'm only making changes in my own home, is there a problem with that"
Facing Zhao's question, Feng Aotian's chest heaved. He raised his hand again, but Feng Lingxi stopped him.
"Never mind, my mother is no longer a member of the General's Mansion, nor am I. Since there's no place for us to stay at the General's Mansion, it doesn't matter."
"Sister, let's go live at the Lu family's mansion, wouldn't that be nice It's full of our people."
Lu Nian suddenly spoke, Feng Lingxi was a little surprised, wouldn't his first-rank incense be closed
"Don't look at me like that, I'll come here too. Our family still has a house in the capital." Lu Nian chuckled, "A businessman Naturally, they have homes everywhere."
"Well, it's more comfortable to stay home."
Feng Lingxi calmly said, Lu Nian hurriedly ordered someone to send their luggage back to the Lu family first.
"General Feng, about what we discussed before, let's go again tomorrow. Today, let's settle in first and rest a bit."
Wind Aotian saw Feng Lingxi wanting to leave, with a look of reluctance on his face. However, this General's Mansion had been messed up by the Zhao family, leaving no place for him to live. He was truly angry, but he didn't want to make a scene and embarrass the General's Mansion.
"Okay, I'll go find you tomorrow."
Feng Lingxi nodded, got into the carriage, and a group of people drove towards Lu's mansion.
"Sister, I thought you'd rather stay at an inn than live in the Lu family's mansion."
Lu Nian scratched his head sheepishly, "However, this Zhao family is truly formidable. She has the entire General's Mansion under her control. For Feng Aotien to marry a woman like this, his life must be far from pleasant."
“This was his choice. The Zhao clan is from the Yao race and has a close relationship with Luoli. Now, bowing down to Feng Aotian like this, it's probably related to what happened to Yu Yuxu.” Otherwise, with Zhao Shi she knew before, how could she be so submissive.
"Xiao Feng, has this wind spirit jade had any trouble with you"
Tao Su suddenly asked, Feng Ling Xi thought for a moment, and faintly told her about the grievance between her and Feng Ling Yu. Tao Su listened without saying anything, after all, this was a matter between them sisters.
"The Lu family doesn't have much business here. Because of you, I've set up a house and a tavern here. As for the rest, there isn't much. If you run into danger, you should be able to escape unharmed."
Lu Nian suddenly spoke, looking at Feng Lingxi's serene demeanor between her brows and asked, "Little sister, I just thought you would make a big fuss and insist on living in the General's Mansion."
"Why would you go and live there To argue This General's Residence has nothing to do with me. They invited you to stay, it's just a matter of courtesy. If they didn't let you in, that's also understandable. What's the big deal"
Since she had severed ties with Feng Aotian, this General's Manor held a different meaning compared to the one belonging to her grandfather in Mingde Town. Besides, she wasn't here to cause trouble and there was no need to make a fuss.
"You're right, this is the Duke of Zhen Guo's mansion after all. If things get out of hand, people will say you're bullying them."
Lu Nian nodded, "It's still more comfortable to live in your own home."
Feng Lingxi responded, and she had known beforehand that the Lu family also had a business here. Even if she had to be thick-skinned, she would choose the Lu family over the General's Mansion. Staying at an inn with three children wasn't safe, and she couldn't bear the thought of it.
The Lu family's house was located four or five alleys away from Chen Wangfu. It was in a bustling area on the street, very close to the market. Moreover, the house was quite luxurious. Although it wasn't as large as the General's Mansion or the Prince's Mansion, the interior decoration was definitely not something an ordinary family could afford.
Pavilions and towers should be present.
All the people in Lu's residence were from the Lu family themselves. Their safety was also taken care of. Seeing Lu Nian bring them back, they warmly welcomed them in, calling her "Miss" this and "Miss" that, completely ignoring her previous identities as the princess consort and the fourth young lady of General's Mansion. In their eyes, Feng Lingxi was simply the eldest Miss of their Lu family.
"Xi'er, you take the children to go see and tidy up your own courtyard first. I will make arrangements for Tao Su here."
Tao Su nodded toward Feng Lingxi, reassuring her.
"Butler, take Miss and the young masters to rest."
"Who is the little ancestor."
"I'm not happy about this," Feng Siqi complained, "According to seniority, we are the young misses and masters."
Lu Nian pinched Feng Siqi's cheeks, they were chubby and adorable.
"Yes, young miss and young master, please go see your room, freshen up, and we'll have a delicious meal of "Yi Pin Xiang" prepared for you shortly."
"Thank you, Uncle."
Feng Siqi suddenly bloomed like a flower, hugged Lu Nian and kissed him on the cheek, then dashed off after the housekeeper.
Lu Nian watched them leave, a contented smile on her face.
"My little sister has changed so much this time, it seems she doesn't care about the past anymore."
Lu Nian looked at Tao Su, “Thank you for helping her this time.”
Tao Su smiled, “Xiao Feng has her own thoughts and opinions. I haven’t done anything, just comforted her. I hope she can find her happiness, that way, I’d consider it repaying my debt.”
Lu Nian looked at Tao Su's indifferent expression, her face full of curiosity.
Tao Su, don't you have any romantic feelings for my sister Isn't a woman like her attractive to you
Knowing it's unattainable and still pursuing it only leads to more troubles. Why should I bother myself with this I'm doing just fine now anyway.
Tao Su's words made Lu Nian give him a thumbs up.
"No wonder my parents allowed you to escort my sister here. I can see that you have such noble thoughts, and my parents are not worried that you would have ulterior motives towards her."
Tao Su still smiled, it was up to others what they thought of him. He only knew that he owed Feng Lingxi a debt, and he had done his best to repay it. That was enough. Sometimes, being with a close friend was better than being married.
"Thank you for your trust in me. I will continue to work hard and help Xiao Feng get what she wants."
"What does your sister want Do you know"
Lu Nianwen looked at Tao Su's smile in his eyes, her brows furrowed slightly. "You really know"
When she came, all she wanted was her eldest daughter. Now, I'm not even sure what she wants.
>wishes to come here to inquire about news, I'm afraid she will be disappointed.""Your Majesty is too kind. I'm not here to gather intel, just to tell you this. Besides, I've been busy lately and just...
