Huaicheng, Zhou family.
Feng Zhiheng said excitedly to Mrs. Zhou, "I don't have to learn the rules anymore."
Mrs. Zhou looked at Feng Zhiheng with a doting look on her face. After two years of learning the rules, she looked like a lady in front of outsiders, but she was still so daring in private.
As soon as he heard that his engagement with the eldest prince was cancelled, he immediately put down the piano in his hand and started shouting excitedly.
"A Heng, learning the rules is not for the eldest prince, but to hone your mind." Mrs. Zhou, who had always been rigid, turned red when she saw Feng Zhiheng's excited little face, and her tone was gentler than before.
"You see in the past two years, you are much more calm than before."
Feng Zhiheng has indeed suffered a lot in the past two years in order to learn the rules.
"Little Yuan Bao doesn't even need to learn the rules." Whenever there was a quarrel over learning the rules, Feng Zhiheng would carry out Xiao Fu Yuan.
"You are different from her."
Mrs. Zhou sighed in her heart.
I thought that little Fuyuan was just a country girl, but she was able to win everyone's favor easily, and she was lucky enough to be granted the title of village head without relying on her father and brother.
I heard that during the Spring Festival, the emperor went to the Bai family and treated her as if he were his daughter.
When Xiao Fuyuan reaches the age of marriage, she will choose a well-to-do family in the village and bear the title of village head. In addition, there will be a promising fourth brother and fifth brother, and no one will support her.
There is no need to worry about those days.
Unlike girls from aristocratic families, who have been burdened with the pressure of their families since they were young. After getting married, they have to be the mistress and serve the whole family. How can they do it if they don't learn the rules?
If Feng Zhiheng was as lucky as Xiao Fuyuan, her aunt would definitely not be a villain and force Feng Zhiheng to learn the rules.
"I'm tired after studying for two years. Let's take a few days off these days." Mrs. Zhou said.
The engagement between Feng Zhiheng and the eldest prince was cancelled, although it was due to the incompatibility of their horoscopes. But those high-ranking families in the capital still have Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts, and they are afraid that A Heng will not be able to marry into a high-class marriage in the future.
Mrs. Zhou was very open-minded when it came to her eldest daughter-in-law's worries. Missing out on a high-ranking family might actually be a good thing for Ah Heng. In the future, she would look for a family with an ordinary and good character, such as Zhongjing Houfu and Zhongjing Houfu. With the Zhou family as his backer, Ah Heng might be able to live freely.
Feng Zhiheng didn't know that her grandmother had been thinking about it for so long. She only knew that she would be happy without having to marry that foul-faced brat A Zhen.
"Grandma, can I go to Shenshu Village to play with Xiao Yuanbao these days?" Feng Zhiheng looked at Mrs. Zhou expectantly.
Before Mrs. Zhou could speak, Mrs. Zhou declined politely: "The flowers in our yard are blooming just right, so why not invite Little Yuanbao to come to our house to enjoy the flowers?"
Feng Zhiheng was a little disappointed.
What was the point of admiring the flowers? She wanted to go to the village to climb trees, catch fish and feed the pigs.
Feng Zhiheng lay on his grandmother's knees and begged coquettishly.
"A Heng hasn't gone out for a long time. If you want to go, you can go. Lao Bai's house is not someone else's house." Mrs. Zhou finally couldn't bear Feng Zhiheng's coquettishness and agreed with a smile.
"Thank you grandma."
Feng Zhiheng stood up and blessed Mrs. Zhou with a blessing, and then went back to prepare.
She planned to go to the Zhou family's home to find Erlang of the Bai family and ask him if he had any gifts for his aunt or if he had anything to say to the Bai family.
"The Feng family will send someone to take her back to Beijing in a few days. I'm afraid she won't be able to see Xiao Yuanbao for many years after returning to Beijing. Let her go to Shenshu Village and send a few more people to follow her." Mrs. Zhou said to Mrs. Zhou.
Mrs. Zhou nodded in agreement, looked at Feng Zhiheng's retreating shadow, and suddenly said: "The Emperor went to the Bai family during the Spring Festival. I heard that he likes the Bai family girl very much... Is it the Emperor's intention to cancel the engagement between the eldest prince and A Heng?"
Mrs. Zhou thought for a while and said meaningfully: "No matter who means it, A Heng has benefited this time. Why did I agree with A Heng to go to Shenshu Village? I think the girl from the Bai family is very lucky, and I thought Qing, I will never be able to support A Heng in the future."
Mrs. Zhou promised Feng Zhiheng to go to Shenshu Village, but Feng Zhiheng was not willing to stay for a moment. Early the next morning, he brought a lot of gifts and got on the carriage to Shenshu Village.
As the carriage drove to Jixiang Street, someone was quarreling and a crowd of people watching the excitement blocked the road.
"You Ning family have no sense of shame. How can your daughter marry two families? Even if the prefect is your brother-in-law, I will be justified."
"Even if it is an engagement made while drinking, it is still an engagement. Even if you go to the emperor, you Ning family will recognize it."
Feng Zhiheng opened the curtain and saw a very aggressive woman with her hands on her hips cursing.
"An agreement without proof is just bullshit. I'm already engaged, why should I say I'm your daughter-in-law?"
"Dad, you only know how to twist your beard. Why don't you tell me whether your drunken and reckless behavior can't be taken seriously."
A pretty girl in green clothes with red and swollen eyes from crying attracted Feng Zhiheng's attention.
Feng Zhiheng had just experienced the termination of his engagement. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
She pieced together the woman's curses and the girl's accusations, and pieced together a miserable story.
This sister is so pitiful. She was obviously engaged to her lover, but the engagement she made indiscriminately while drinking was broken up by her father.
"You are my daughter-in-law, and you will only be my daughter-in-law until the day you die." The woman put her hands on her hips aggressively.
"Who is your daughter-in-law? Don't be ridiculous. I'm already engaged." The green girl was not to be outdone.
"Even if you get engaged now, you still have to be on a first-come, first-served basis. You promised my son while you were still in your mother's belly..."
Feng Zhiheng shook his head and sighed. This sister was even worse off than him. She was promised to someone else when she was still in her mother's womb. And looking at the silent father beside her, she was afraid that she was taking advantage of both families.
Just when Feng Zhiheng was about to order the carriage to turn around and change the route, he heard the woman's howling like a slaughtering pig. It turned out that the girl in green had snatched the urinal from the hands of the onlookers in desperation and splashed the woman all over her body.
Feng Zhiheng covered his nose and wanted to lower the carriage curtain.
At this time, the woman screamed and chased the girl in green, but the road was blocked. The girl in green ran to the carriage, her big eyes full of pleading.
Feng Zhiheng's chivalrous heart was awakened, he opened the curtain of the carriage, pulled the girl in green into the carriage, and then ordered the coachman to turn around and drive on.
"Sister, we are leaving the city soon..." Feng Zhiheng said.
But the girl in green had no intention of getting off the carriage.
"Can you take me out of the city?" the girl in green asked.
"Then what will you do if your family comes after you?"
Feng Zhiheng heard that her family was related to the prefect. If he found out that she was the one who took the person away, even if Master Liu went to his grandfather to complain to her, he would not want to go to Shenshu Village.
"Please, sister, my sister is a chivalrous woman and a good person." The girl in green had tears in her eyes. "I can't go back. When I go back, my father will promise me to the Luo family."
Feng Zhiheng was stunned by the title of chivalrous woman.
Well, if Xiao Fuyuan was here, he would definitely save this sister.
"Then where are you going when you leave the city? If it's not far, I can take you there."
"Sacred Tree Village."
