rebirth after cruelty

Chapter 7 Swagger
Feng Ruqing stepped forward and saluted respectfully, "Grandmother."

"What do you think of today's matter?" The old lady put down the teacup and placed her hands casually on both sides.

Feng Ruqing paused, and said calmly, "Why was the stone tablet accidentally struck by lightning? My granddaughter is quite puzzled."

"That's right, it's very good. Such a big event will certainly alarm the court." The old lady looked at her and said, "Do you believe what that Shenmu said?"

"Believe it or not, is it important now?" Feng Ruqing asked.

The old lady curled her lips into a smile, "Your mother is always in a hurry."

"Mother has always cherished the fourth sister." Feng Ruqing showed helplessness, but with a bit of bitterness.

The old lady looked directly into Feng Ruqing's eyes, this girl is really smart.

She raised her hand, took the box on the side, and gave Sister Qing a wink.

Sister Qing took the box and handed it to Feng Ruqing with both hands.

Feng Ruqing took it, and looked at the old lady puzzled.

"Here you take it." The old lady said in a low voice, "As the eldest daughter of the Feng family, you must have all the decency you should have."

Only now did Feng Ruqing open the box, and there was a stack of bank notes and several land deeds inside.

She looked at the old lady in surprise.

The old lady said slowly, "Your mother put these on me before she died. I originally gave them to you when you got married."

"Why did grandma give it to her granddaughter now?" Feng Ruqing couldn't help but clenched her hands tightly.

"The stele was indeed split open. Whether it was God's will or man-made, in the eyes of outsiders, the Feng family will suffer, and they don't know when the disaster will come." The old lady said slowly, "You keep these things now to save your life in the future."

"Granddaughter, thank you grandmother." Feng Ruqing was extremely grateful to the old lady.

It's a pity that the old lady in her previous life died of illness less than half a year after she went to the family temple.

After she came out of the family temple, Mother Qing gave her a letter, and Feng Ruqing understood the old lady's good intentions.

Before the old lady died, she begged the emperor for a marriage decree, so she survived, and then married the second prince, and started her difficult road to becoming a queen.

Unfortunately, in the end, she was just worrying in vain.

In this life, Feng Ruqing doesn't want to live that kind of life again. When she spends her whole life seeing clearly the essence of a person, how can she fly to the flame again?
Feng Ruqing came out of the old lady's yard, and seeing a cold light flashing in the distance, she lowered her head and glanced at the box in her hand.

Chunlan followed her carefully.

Feng Ru narrowed her eyes, "Tomorrow, I'll go out of the house."

"Miss, if you want to leave the residence, you must first ask the lady for instructions." Chunlan looked at her.

"No need." Feng Ruqing raised her eyebrows and said, "The old lady has already agreed."

"The servant girl is going to prepare now." Chunlan was overjoyed when she heard that she was leaving the house.

After the eldest lady sent Feng Huiqing away, she was helped back to the courtyard.

Mother Xi whispered a few words to her.

Da Furen's face darkened, "This old woman actually hides so many good things."

"Madam, the old lady is obviously partial to the eldest lady." Mammy Xi said again, "It seems that she liked the fourth lady originally, and she was pretending."

"No." The eldest lady felt more and more strange, "What's the matter with this old woman? Why did she suddenly turn to that dead girl?"

"The old slave also finds it strange." Xi Momo looked at her and said, "Could it be, what did the old lady find?"

"What can you find?" The eldest lady snorted coldly, "Hui'er must not be given such a reputation, I will definitely let that dead girl replace Hui'er."

"But now... Fourth Miss has become a demon girl." Mammy Xi said hastily.

"What are you afraid of?" Da furen squinted her eyes, "People in this world are forgetful, and after a period of trouble, they will all forget it. At that time, I will find another reason to give this damn girl..."

"Then what about the old lady?" Mother Xi said again, "She has been helping the young miss all the time."

"Then I'll give her to..." Da Furen's eyes flashed with sternness, and she began to calculate with Mammy Xi.

Feng Ruqing took Chunlan and Xia Zhu out of the mansion early the next morning.

When the gatekeeper saw her, he was obviously taken aback.

"Miss, it's not appropriate to go out so early." The servant was clearly reminding her that without the permission of the eldest lady, she couldn't leave the mansion.

Feng Ruqing took out the pair of cards that the old lady gave her.

The servant took a look, bowed immediately, and opened the door respectfully.

Feng Ru leaned out the door, the carriage was already waiting outside.

She got into the carriage.

Chunlan asked the coachman to drive forward.

The boy took a look with his head and hurried to report.

Only then did the eldest lady know that Feng Ruqing had left the house.

She frowned, "Take the pair of cards given by the old lady?"

"Yes." Madam Xi said, looking at her.

"Today is not the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, so we don't need to go to say hello." The eldest lady said in a low voice, "Send someone to follow her and see what she is doing when she leaves the house?"

"Yes." Mother Xi replied, and hurriedly went to do it.

"Miss, where are we going?" Chunlan raised the curtain of the car, glanced outside, then turned to look at her and asked.

Feng Ru listened to the noise outside, "Let the coachman walk around the city."

"Ah?" Chunlan was taken aback, "But this early in the morning, it's too ostentatious."

"Just do it." Feng Ruqing said slowly.

"Yes." Chunlan replied with lowered eyes.

Although the Feng family's carriage is not particularly luxurious, it is also very stylish.

Especially this early in the morning, driving slowly on the streets of the capital like this, I don't know who is sitting here?
Yesterday, the story of the Feng family had already been spread all over the streets and alleys of the capital, but today, the Feng family came out to show off in the market, what is the intention of this?
But Feng Ruqing strolled around the capital calmly, and the carriage stopped slowly until she reached the most prosperous restaurant in the capital.

"Miss, it's already evening." Chunlan looked at her.

Feng Ruqing raised the hem of her skirt, and easily jumped off the carriage.

Holding the Linglong Sword in her hand, with a veil covering her face, she stepped into the restaurant.

This move alarmed many people who secretly stared at Feng's family curiously.

Seeing the person who came out now, he was stunned.

"How did she come out?"

"This young lady of the Feng family is not easy to mess with."

"I heard that the real witch is not the frail Fourth Miss Feng, but this Miss Feng."

Not far away, someone was already whispering there.

Feng Ruqing chose a private room with a superb view, and sat by the window.

The shop waiter looked at the Linglong sword carelessly placed on the table, shrank his neck, and stepped forward obsequiously.

Chunlan's face darkened, she ordered food, and the waiter hurriedly retreated out.

"Miss, someone is here." Chunlan looked at a man wearing a bamboo hat who suddenly appeared outside, and turned to report.

　Those who like it, remember to collect it and leave a paw print...
