Queen of flowers - Chapter 66
Before her arrival, did Shen Taifi do the same trick again, and wanted to reward one or more of her girls to Feng Liao as a concubine? No wonder Feng Liao praised her appearance like that! He wanted to block the way, so that Shen Taifei and the Shou’an girls would never have thoughts about him.
This was a method that leaves no room for them to advance, and at the same time it wasn’t too rebellious.
But this could also be seen in general that Feng Liao was really a pure and good boy!
He probably hadn’t touched the dark side of the side house yet. She was afraid that this would make her the target of criticism and set her on fire by numerous guns and arrows.
Fortunately, she had the golden finger, Lulu, so that she wouldn’t be screamed at a young age like many famous pets and concubines in history.
Shen Taifei’s face was calm. She looked at Feng Liao for a moment, then turned to look at Yong Ruo again, and gritted her teeth slightly, and asked, “Yong, do you think you are the best in the world?”
Yong Ruo thought to herself that Tai Fei’s question was really hard to answer. If she said “yes”, she would be egoistic; If she said “no”, she would hit Feng Liao’s face again. Feng Liao was now her boss! How could she hit him in front of the big boss?
“Replying to Taifei, I am young and savvy. I have only seen a few women, and I don’t know if I am beautiful or ugly. However, since I have received high praise from Prince Xingjun, I dare not take it easy, stating that I was born ugly.”
Shen Tai Fei snorted, “You can talk!”
Yong Ruo bowed slightly, then stood still, and didn’t flatter the princess mother or spoke politely. Shen Taifei was angry, ‘She should talk less!’
“How did you meet Prince Xingjun?” Shen Taifei began to question Yong Ruo.
Feng Liao was beside him, “Mother, hasn’t your son reported to you in detail? Why do you still ask her?”
Shen Tai Fei snorted again, “Mother can’t ask her? You have to stop talking, or I’ll ask someone to take you out!”
Feng Liao replied, “Mother will ask if you want! The son will just listen to Yong’s voice. Yong’s voice is clear and sweet, and it is also very nice!” After that, he looked at Yong Ruo obsessively.
Shen Tai Fei was so angry that she straightened her back and yelled, “Go away and sit down!”
Feng Liao then left Shen Taifei’s treasure couch and sat down on the top chair.
Yong Ruo did not look at Feng Liao, only blessed the toffee, and said bluntly, “Replying to Taifei, I met Wang Ye on the night of the Lantern Festival …”
She followed Feng Liao’s prompt and told the story of that night.
“Such cold days, and at night, how dare you dare to go under the water to hunt for silver, this courage is not small,” Shen Taifei said unclearly.
Yong Ruo calmly replied, “At that time, the Yong family had no food, but mother was seriously ill but had no money to seek medical treatment. It was a dead-end, and I had to fight. Fortunately, God’s pity made me really get that ingot of silver, and keep my body well. “
Feng Liao sighed and stroked his forehead. He was guilty and grateful.
He felt guilty because he threw the silver into the water, which was not something a gentleman would so; fortunately, if it were not for that time, he and Yong Ruo would never have the same fate as today-wouldn’t that be a great regret in life?
Shen Tai Fei glanced at Feng Liao and continued to ask Yong Ruo, “You are a girl. How can you swim?”
“I am the head of the family. Because my brothers were born late, I was raised as a man for several years. This was taught by my father when I was young. After they had my brother, I didn’t swim anymore.”
“No decency!” Shen Taifei said disapprovingly, with some doubts.
“So you haven’t swam for so many years, how do you remember to swim? How did you get silver?”
“Back to you Taifei, the ability to swim is the same as the ability to use chopsticks. Once you learn it, you will never forget it.”
Shen no longer tangled about her ability to swim, and turned to another topic, “Who was the ‘kind-hearted’ old lady you met that night?”
“Selling flowers that night, I met several old ladies who were kind. I wonder which one, the Princess mother is asking for? “
“It’s the one who rewarded you with money for the plum blossoms at your house …” Shen Taifei said, “all of your neighbors said this.”
Yong Ruo thought, ‘It seems that Shen Tai Fei has sent people to inquire about the Yong family.’
She replied, “Return to Taifei, there is no such old lady. The one who gave me silver for plum blossoms was all Xingjun Wang.”
Shen Taifei sneered and said, “With a mouth full of lies, it is not honest!”
Yong Ruo said calmly, “The princess mother may not know, but poor people are easy to get jealous, with jealousy people forget right and wrong. Many of the right and wrong in Mopan Hutong are all caused by the word poverty. Yong’s family is in a difficult situation and can’t bear rumors. Some lies have to be spoken.”
Feng Liao listened, his brows frowned and tightened, at this time he could not help but interject, “Mother, you are too much to blame! If Yong did not say ‘the old lady’ but said it was ‘a young son’, I don’t know what awkward story would have been made up by the people there! If she is disturbed by rumors, will I have a glorious face? Her neighbors are not close people, and they don’t lack evildoers. If Yong was honest with everyone and told them everything, the family would have long been counted until only bones were left! “
“Shut your mouth!” Shen Tai Fei stared at Feng Liao fiercely.
Feng Liao refused to shut up, saying in a very depressing tone,”Mother, Yong is a very good person! I have known her for a long time! Why bother to take her as a thief now?”
“You are protecting her like this?” Shen Tai Fei said to Feng Liao resentfully.
“Your son lived for many years, and he only now accepted a pleasing person to serve him. Taifei, leave your son some dignity.” He lowered his eyes, and said sadly, “Elder brother and second brother had bought Concubines, Madams, and Beauties, but I haven’t seen you picking on them like this! “
The Princess could no longer remain silent, and came up to persuade him, ” As time goes by, people see the true heart. Mother might as well look cold, and if there is anything wrong with Yongmei in the future, Mother will teach her carefully! “
Shen Taifei snorted coldly, “I don’t bother to teach her! It is the right of a wife to discipline the chamber. I will go to the palace tomorrow and ask the emperor and the queen mother to choose a powerful woman for this jerk, and see how he still acts as a demon! “
