Feng Yushu also gave Mrs. Feng Er two pots of osmanthus and said excitedly, "One of my son's classmates grows flowers and trees at home. These osmanthus flowers were given to me by him. I will bring them to honor my mother."

?

Mrs. Feng couldn't help but frown, and she was a little doubtful whether this son was hers.

?

I've told him so many times to have less contact with those questionable people and hang out more with the young masters of various mansions, why doesn't he listen?

?

What kind of help can a classmate whose family makes a living by selling flowers and trees do? Is it necessary to care?

?

"I know you are filial, but you should also focus on your studies. No matter how beautiful these flowers and grass are, it is better to earn me a phoenix crown and bridal robe."

?

Feng Yushu was stunned for a moment, with a bit of embarrassment on his face. "My mother is teaching me, so I will go back to my room and study now."

?

She stood up and bowed to leave, but was called back by Madam Feng. "You are not young anymore, you can't delay your marriage any longer."

?

"The marriages I suggested to you before were not to your liking, and I won't force you. However, the eldest daughter of the Fang Tongpan family is first-class in appearance, character, and talent. It is unreasonable for you to refuse to do so."

?

"Mother, I want to focus on my studies first..." Feng Yushu got a headache when he heard the word "marriage" and found an excuse to shirk responsibility.

?

Madam Feng's face immediately turned cold. "I've never heard of someone failing the imperial examination and not being able to get married. Don't think I don't know what you've been doing out there."

?

Feng Yushu also became anxious and asked angrily, "Son, don't dare to do bad things to make your parents worry."

?

"You took your sister to the Xie family, which is a bad thing. Are you thinking that I am deaf and blind?" Mrs. Feng saw that Feng Yushu was still being stubborn and got really angry. She slapped the table, and a fine jade bracelet on her wrist broke into several pieces.

?

Feng Yushu knelt on the ground with a plop and bowed his head to admit his mistake.

?

Mrs. Feng II just ignored her, wiping her tears while complaining about her miserable life, "I have been married to your Feng family for more than 20 years, and gave birth to many of your brothers and sisters, but which one of them cares about me?"

?

"When they grow up and have their own ideas, they don't even take me, their mother, seriously."

?

Feng Yushu tried hard to persuade her until she agreed to marry him to the daughter of Pan Fang Tong, and only then did Mrs. Feng stop crying.

?

"You go ahead and ask for a few days off from school. I'll ask Mrs. Fang to bring Miss Fang to my house. You can take a look at her yourself then, so you don't have to blame me for restricting you."

?

Feng Yushu came out of Mrs. Feng's place with his head down. Fan Ran asked himself, what was wrong with him not wanting to get married for the time being? Unfortunately, he couldn't come up with an answer after thinking for a long time.

?

Mrs. Feng knew that the old lady did not like her family to have too much contact with the officialdom, let alone get married. She was on high alert against the old lady in advance, until Mrs. Fang brought Miss Fang to the Feng Mansion and asked to pay respects to the old lady, and Mrs. Feng had to bring her to the old lady.

?

The old lady couldn't say anything in front of outsiders. After everyone left, she was so angry that she smashed the cup.

?

He called Master Feng Er and scolded him, "Have you forgotten what I told you all the time? I said, your sister is now a concubine. It may seem glorious to outsiders, but only she knows how dangerous it is."

?

"The more low-key we, the family members of your mother's family, are, the safer your sister and the Third Prince will be. If your sister and the Third Prince are together, our Feng family will be better off in the future."

?

"You guys, you promised me everything in front of me, but secretly you want to marry into some Tongpan family. Are you trying to piss me off to death?"

?

Mr. Feng Er was also kept in the dark, and only found out about Feng Yushu's blind date after being scolded. Fearing that the old lady would be angry and have bad health, he tried his best to persuade her and went back to settle the score with Mrs. Feng Er.

?

Madam Feng was very satisfied with the marriage with the Fang family. She would not allow anyone to disrupt it for any reason. She simply threw away all the virtues and etiquette of a lady and sat on the ground like a shrew, slapping her thighs and crying.

?

"Why am I doing this? Isn't it for Yushu's future and for the good of your Feng family?"

?

"In the end, I became a sinner. No one in the world can justify this."

?

"Is it because the Fang family is not high-class enough, or is it because the family tradition is not upright enough, or is there something about Miss Fang that makes me dissatisfied? Tell me the reason, and I will admit my mistake in front of our ancestors."

?

Some things can only be understood but not expressed in words. Master Feng Er reached out and pulled her up. "What are you doing? Do you want the servants to see your face like this?"

?

"No, I don't even have the substance, so what's the point of having face?" Second Madam Feng was determined to make a big scene and establish her position in the Feng family. She sat on the ground and refused to get up.

?

"Marriage is a major event, and it is decided by the parents and the matchmaker. This is the rule passed down by our ancestors,"

?

"I have been married to your Feng Ding for more than 20 years. Have I ever made a single mistake? I am just looking for a marriage for my own son. Whether it will be successful or not is still uncertain, and you are pointing at my nose and getting angry. Why do you Feng family treat me like this?"

?

When a scholar meets a soldier, he cannot explain himself clearly, and when he meets a shrew, he is even less able to explain himself.

?

Master Feng was so stunned that he couldn't say a word. He just said, "I won't accept this marriage. Even if you decide, I won't recognize it."

?

With a flushed face, he walked away, shaking his sleeves.

?

When he went out, he met Feng Yushu standing outside the door in a daze. The father and son looked at each other, both feeling awkward.

?

Finally, they sighed to each other, and Master Feng went to the study to calm down. Feng Yushu gritted his teeth and went in to comfort Madam Feng.

?

The old lady was really angry. She felt a tightness in her chest all afternoon and couldn't eat dinner.

?

The servants were worried that she might have health problems due to her old age, so they hurried to report to the two masters. The two ladies naturally followed to greet them.

?

The old lady saw that Madam Feng was in an even worse mood, and after hearing her greetings, she sent her back in a lukewarm tone.

?

It was equivalent to slapping Madam Feng in the face in public. Madam Feng went out with her face flushed, covering her face and crying.

?

Seeing this, the eldest lady sat down beside the old lady's bed and tried to persuade her softly, "My sister-in-law is straightforward and she can't help but be concerned about one thing and ignore the other, but her heart is definitely with our Feng family. You really are angry with a junior."

?

The old lady took the eldest lady's hand and sighed deeply. "You are not in good health, why are you here so late at night?"

?

"I know she is doing this for the good of the Feng family, but sometimes it is worse to be good than to be bad."

?

The old lady didn't want to elaborate, and the eldest lady didn't ask any more questions. She chatted for a few minutes, helped the old lady take the medicine, and then went back.

?

That night, the two masters stayed outside the old lady's room to accompany her. Madam Feng was so angry that she didn't sleep all night.

?

The next day, he asked his confidants to prepare a car and told others that they were going to the temple outside the city to burn incense and pray for the old lady. However, he secretly sent Wang Gui to find Qin Guangjin.
