Chapter 4178 A Little Thought
Feng Jiu smiled, glanced at Leng Shuang, and raised her hand: “This is a little gift I brought. I hope you will accept it.”
Leng Shuang came out and handed a gift box to her.
Wang Yu was surprised and hurriedly said, “It’s good that you could come. How could we accept your gift?”
“We can’t come empty-handed on our first visit.” Feng Jiu smiled and said nonchalantly, “It’s just a little something, a token of our appreciation.”
After hearing her say this, the Wang couple exchanged glances and then said, “In that case, we thank you, Young Miss Feng.” Then, Mistress Wang signalled the maid next to her to take it.
They thought that it should be some ordinary gift, so they didn’t really care about it. They just thought that since it was a token of the Lady’s goodwill, they had to accept it, and it would be bad to ask her to take it back.
“Is this the first time you’ve been to Verdant Enchanted City, Young Miss Feng?” the Patriarch asked.
“Yes, this is my first time here,” Feng Jiu replied, taking a sip of tea.
“Where is Young Miss Feng from? How did you meet my son, Yu?” Mistress Wang couldn’t help but ask.
Hearing this, Feng Jiu smiled and was about to speak when she saw Wang Yu standing up and saying, “Father, Mother, they’ve been out and about all day and are tired. I’ll take them to the Plum Garden Courtyard to rest first!”
Seeing this, the couple looked at each other and laughed, “Yes, yes, then go rest first! Since Young Miss Feng has come to our family, you must take good care of her. See if the Plum Garden Courtyard is lacking anything and get it ready. Accompany Young Miss Feng around and have some fun these two days.”
“I know, so I’ll take them to rest first,” Wang Yu said, looking at Feng Jiu.
Feng Jiu stood up and smiled at the patriarch and his wife, saying, “Patriarch, Madam, I’ll go rest first.”
“Please, please.”
The Wang couple responded, and they also stood up. They watched Wang Yu lead the three of them away until they could no longer see them. Mistress Wang said with some concern, “These three Ladys, is it not too inappropriate for Yu’er to take care of them?”
“We don’t need to worry about this. Yu’er will take care of everything. Besides, this Young Miss Feng seems to have a very unusual background. Didn’t you notice? Yu’er only introduced her as Feng, didn’t even say her name, and didn’t let us ask her any questions. She’s very mysterious.” The Patriarch said thoughtfully, feeling very strange.
It’s not that he looks down on his son, but how did his son make such an outstanding friend?
The Patriarch looked outside and suddenly remembered something. He turned to his wife and said, “Right, isn’t it my father’s birthday in a few days? I think it’s been a long time since we had a happy occasion at home, so I want to make a big deal of it. I’ve already asked the people below to get started on the preparations, and you should keep an eye on things these days and make sure the people below are making careful arrangements.”
“I know, but if we throw a big party, there will be too many people to invite, and I’m worried that something might go wrong.” Mistress Wang said, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
“Are you worried that the other families will take advantage of the situation to stir up trouble?” asked the Patriarch of the Wang Family.
“That’s right.”
“Don’t worry about this. On such a day, no one will be so sensible as to cause trouble.” The Patriarch said, crossing his arms and saying, “Let’s go back to the courtyard.”
Mistress Wang followed him for a few steps, then suddenly remembered the small gift box and stopped. She said to the maid, “Come, pass me the box.”
