The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket!

Chapter 316: Chapter 296: The Mother’s Family is Too Powerful_1

In the carriage, Daohua wasn’t in her usual spirits for jokes and laughter, leaning listlessly on Li Zixin’s shoulder.

“What’s wrong with you, girl?”

Madam Fan looked at Daohua in surprise, her niece was always cheerful and lively, always appearing happy and carefree wherever she went, so it was rare for her to be silent like today.

Daohua sat up straight and murmured, “I ran too fast when we were flying the kites, now I’m a bit tired, and also a little hungry.”

Madam Jian immediately took over the conversation, “It’s my fault, I didn’t expect that we would be stuck on the road for almost half an hour this time. If I had known we would miss lunch, I would have prepared some pastries to bring along.”

Daohua quickly said, “Auntie, I’m not very hungry.”

Li Zixuan glanced at Daohua, hesitated for a moment, but still asked, “Cousin Yiyi, did Brother Feng upset you?”

Daohua looked at Li Zixuan, “Sister Zixuan, why do you ask that?”

Li Zixuan replied, “Just now when we flying the kites, Brother Feng mentioned to me that you seemed to dislike him.”

Madam Fan and Madam Jian showed surprise on their faces and were just about to ask, when they saw Daohua sneer and say.

“Did he say why?”

Li Zixuan nodded, “He said you saw Sun Jiayue pestering him.”

Daohua snorted and turned to Madam Fan and Madam Jian to explain what she had seen, how Sun Jiayue had fed Feng Liangji pastries, and how she taunted Feng Liangji in the pavilion.

“Big Auntie, Auntie, do you think that Feng Liangji should have said something?”

Madam Jian pulled Daohua into her arms and held her, her face showing affection as she said, “Good Daohua, Auntie thanks you for standing up for your Sister Zixuan.”

Her daughter was engaged to Feng Liangji, and for her daughter’s future happiness, they wouldn’t act too excessively no matter what they learned, unless they called off the engagement.

But who would cancel an engagement as soon as it was set?

Besides, from all aspects, the Feng Family was still quite decent. If her daughter called off the engagement, no matter the reason, her reputation would ultimately be ruined, and finding a better match in the future might not be possible.

But she was still angry at the thought of letting Feng Liangji off so easily.

It was a good thing they had Daohua.

Daohua had a special status; firstly, she was still young, and secondly, she was the Magistrate’s daughter. Even if she was sharp-tongued and blunt, the Feng Family wouldn’t dare say anything, especially since it was clear that Feng Liangji was at fault.

Madam Fan also spoke with a stern face, “Daohua, the words you said were excellent, that Feng Liangji deserved to be embarrassed. He’s already engaged yet doesn’t know how to conduct himself properly.”

Daohua nodded in agreement, “Exactly.” Then looking at Li Zixuan she said, “Sister Zixuan, don’t be too kind to someone like Feng Liangji. Otherwise, he will forget his place again and start acting like he’s above everyone.”

Li Zixuan smiled and took Daohua’s hand, “I’m aware of what’s going on between Sun Jiayue and Brother Feng. Don’t worry, I know how to handle it.”

Daohua nodded and said no more, leaning back on Li Zixin’s shoulder.

Seeing her aunt and mother whispering, Li Zixuan moved next to Daohua and whispered, “Are you also upset with the Little Prince over this?”

Daohua shook her head, “No.”

Li Zixuan wanted to say more but, seeing that Daohua didn’t want to elaborate, she simply closed her mouth and said nothing more.

That afternoon, after returning home and just having finished lunch, a servant came to report that Master Feng and his son had come to offer an apology.

Madam Fan and Madam Jian exchanged a quick look, both instinctively glancing at Daohua.

“They arrived quite quickly.”

If it had been someone from the Li Family who’d seen it, perhaps the Feng Family wouldn’t have been so eager, but since it was Daohua, the Magistrate’s daughter who noticed, with the involvement of the Little Prince and a few other noble young masters, the Feng Family had to take it seriously.

The main court of the Li Family.

Li Xingchang and Li Xingnian were receiving Father Feng and his sons, as well as Feng Hao.

The three brothers of the Li family, along with the three Yan brothers, were accompanying them.

Although Yan Wenxiu had earlier stopped his sister from making a big fuss, now that Father Feng and Feng Liangji had come to apologize, he timely expressed the Yan Family’s attitude as well.

“My mother is especially fond of Sister Zixuan, saying she is gentle and dignified, much like herself in her youth. When Sister Zixuan stayed with us for a while, my mother even requested Master Shen to teach her etiquette and rules, even Master Shen had nothing but praise for her.”

Father Feng listened attentively, maintaining a smile on his face and nodding from time to time, “This girl Zixuan, my Madam is also extremely pleased with her; it’s three lifetimes’ worth of good fortune for Liangji to marry her.”

Yan Wenkai’s speech wasn’t as nuanced as that of Yan Wenxiu; he walked over to Feng Liangji, smiling as he patted his shoulder, nearly shaking him with his vigor.

“Brother-in-law, I’m someone who likes to spar with others, and I’ve always felt there’s hardly any problem that can’t be solved with fists. If you and Sister Zixuan ever run into any trouble, feel free to come to me.” Saying this, he waved his strong and vigorous fist in front of Feng Liangji.

Feng Liangji bore the pain in his shoulder, nodding with a forced smile on his face.

“Oh, I almost forgot to mention, my elder sister loves playing with whips, and when she cracks it down, well…” Yan Wenkai shivered on his own accord.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Upon hearing this, Feng Liangji’s face turned even more bitter.

Just then, a ‘crack’ sound erupted, and everyone turned their heads to see Yan Wentao had snapped off a corner of the table, and despite that, he still bore a naive smile saying, “Sorry, I was just thinking about how angry my elder sister was, and I accidentally used too much strength.”

Feng Liangji’s mouth gaped wide open.

Was this Yan Third Young Master warning him?

Was he saying that if he made Miss Yan angry, he would break him just like that table corner?

Li Xingnian and Li Xingchang watched with interest, not intervening, allowing their two nephews to make it tough for Feng Liangji.

Feng Hao watched from the side in good spirits, the Yan siblings were really protective!

After making amends and receiving several waves of threats, Feng Liangji finally walked out of the Li Family’s gate with a numb face, led by Father Feng.

His future wife’s family was too powerful, he hadn’t even married yet, but he already felt the pressure of a mountain pressing down on him.

Compared to his son’s dejection, Father Feng was quite happy.

The more the Yan Family valued their future daughter-in-law, the more beneficial it was for the Feng Family.

Just as Father Feng was about to lecture his son, he saw Feng Hao repeatedly looking back at the Li Family, “Fifth brother, do you still have something to take care of?”

Feng Hao smiled and shook his head, “Just feeling a bit reluctant because I got along so well with the Yan Family’s eldest son.”

Thinking of Yan Wenxiu’s looks and character, Father Feng nodded, “The Yan eldest son is a good match; it’s said his scholarship is particularly formidable, what a pity…”

Sons of officials would not fancy their merchant daughter, otherwise, he would have offered his daughter Yiyun to him.

Feng Hao: “… They are returning to Ningmen Prefecture tomorrow, I heard?”

Father Feng nodded, “Seems so.”

Feng Hao fell silent for a moment, then turned once more to gaze at the Li family, “It’s a shame!” He had thought he might be able to see that Yan Family’s eldest Miss today.
