Chapter 1839 Keeping the Han Family Out
Chapter 1839 Keeping the Han Family Out
"Then let us see the old lady. We have urgent business with her!" Their main purpose in coming here was to see the old lady. Cheng Feng had always been unwilling to help the Han family, and the Han family knew this. But the old lady was different! The old lady's surname was Han! She was wholeheartedly devoted to the Han family!
The old lady has gone to great lengths and put in so much effort for the Han family! She will always be with them! Mrs. Han is confident of this!
If the old lady were to learn of Han Muran's troubles, she would surely be just as anxious and restless as they were! In the Han family's minds, Han Muran's matter was not difficult to handle. As long as the old lady intervened, Han Muran, who had been arrested, would be released immediately and would not be involved in any legal troubles!
Who is behind Madam Wan? It's the current Emperor!
What is the relationship between His Majesty and Madam Wan? His Majesty was raised by Madam Wan single-handedly; it's said that an elder sister-in-law is like a mother, and this is certainly true. Just two days ago, Madam Wan fainted, and His Majesty came directly from the palace without waiting a moment.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Han family, there is nothing that Old Madam Wan cannot do, and there is no favor that Old Madam Wan cannot help with. As long as the Han family keeps Old Madam Wan by their side and keeps this person happy, wouldn't the Han family get whatever they want?
The gatekeeper said, "The old lady is ill and needs to rest quietly. It's not appropriate to disturb her! You should go back!"
Madam Han pressed on, "Go tell the old lady that we've come. As long as you say we've come, she'll definitely see us!"
The gatekeeper's face darkened: "Can't you understand? The old lady is sick. How can she see you when she's sick? Is seeing you more important, or is recovering her health more important!"
The doorman angrily turned around and slammed the door shut with a bang. Just before the door closed, Madam Han and her daughter-in-law clearly heard the doorman curse, "Selfish and greedy thing, doesn't value the old lady's life, shameless!"
That's how they kept the Han family out!
Madam Han's hand, which had been resting against the door, slid down limply, and she collapsed to the ground! She thought that once she arrived and saw Old Madam Wan, the matter would be resolved! Unexpectedly, Cheng Feng had declared that he would not see her!
Undeterred, Madam Han and her two daughters-in-law knocked on the door countless times, as if they were about to smash the gates of Prince Pang's mansion to pieces. They called Cheng Feng and the old lady by name, while cursing Cheng Feng for being heartless and ungrateful!
The servant kept running into the old lady's courtyard because Cheng Feng was sitting there talking to the old lady of the Wan family.
Old Madam Wan was still quite sensible. She asked Cheng Feng, "Feng'er, what happened? What is this servant boy repeating over and over again?"
Cheng Feng smiled and brushed it off, "They were all young masters from noble families who sent their servants to invite me out for tea and music. None of them were proper business, and I had my servants refuse them all! I'm staying home with my mother these two days, and I'm not going anywhere!"
Madam Wan felt something was amiss! If she were to invite Cheng Feng for tea and music, the servant would have said it directly, instead of whispering in Cheng Feng's ear! "Mother is perfectly fine, eating and sleeping well! You should drink your tea and listen to your music! You don't need to stay here with an old woman like me."
Cheng Feng raised an eyebrow. "If I don't keep you company, who will? Come here, Da Yan, recite that poem from the Book of Songs that you learned for the old lady. If you recite it well, the old lady will reward you!"
Da Yan regarded reading as a task and mission assigned to him by Cheng Feng, so he studied very hard and learned to recognize many characters!
Hearing that there would be a reward for reciting it well, he immediately stood in the middle of the ground, straightened his back, just like the students in school were taught to stand upright, then tilted his head back and began to recite: "Guan Ju. Guan Guan Ju Jiu, Zai He Zhi Zhou. Yao Tiao Shu Nu, Jun Zi Hao Qiu..."
Big Eyes' voice was loud and clear. When he recited the poem, his little head shook vigorously like an old scholar. He did it in a very proper manner. After reciting the poem, he made Old Madam Wan laugh!
Madam Wan said to Xing'er beside her, "This child reads well! Give Dayan a box of the honey-coated pastries you prepared for Youning, and also give Dayan a box of the pine nut candies that Youning likes!"
"Yes!" Xing'er smiled and went inside to find two boxes of food for Da Yan.
Big Eyes held the two boxes with a smug grin, "Thank you, Madam! Thank you, Madam!"
"If you recite poems for me again in the future, and you recite them well, I'll give you something delicious to eat!"
With a wide grin, he nodded vigorously, thinking to himself, "Studying is great!" He was given two boxes of treats for memorizing a poem, and once he learned the next poem from the Book of Songs, he would come and recite it for the old lady.
Madam Wan waved her hand and said to Big Eyes, "Go play!"
Big Eyes turned to look at Cheng Feng, who nodded, and Big Eyes grabbed two boxes of food and ran off.
Before long, Big Eyes came running back like the wind, his voice incredibly loud: "Your Highness, Your Highness, Constable Sun is here!"
Just as Cheng Feng was about to say he wouldn't see her, Old Madam Wan spoke up: "Feng'er, go ahead and do your work! Mother is a little tired right now and wants to take a nap!"
"Okay, Mom, take a nap. I'll cook noodles for you at noon!"
Madam Wan scolded, "Your Highness, you're not allowed to linger around the stove! You're not allowed in the kitchen!"
"Then let your daughter-in-law cook you some noodles, that'll do!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Wan smiled and said, "Alright then!"
After leaving the old lady's courtyard, Cheng Feng asked Da Yan, "What brings Constable Sun to the Prince's Mansion?"
Big Eyes shook his head: "He said he has important business with the Prince, and he can't tell you unless he sees the Prince!"
Cheng Feng asked again, "Have the Han family left?"
Mentioning the Han family, Da Yan's smile vanished: "They're gone! They practically smashed the paint off our manor's gate. They're finally gone. By the way, Your Highness, I heard that when they left, Madam Han was particularly unhappy with you and grumbled a lot!"
Cheng Feng cautioned Dayan, worried that she might be tempted by a handful of candy, "Let her complain, but she mustn't say these things to the old lady!"
"I know, didn't His Highness remind us these past two days? I've remembered it all!" Big Eyes was eating a pine nut candy at the moment!
In the hall, Constable Sun was sitting there drinking tea alone. When he saw Cheng Feng arrive, he quickly stood up and greeted him, "Uncle!"
Cheng Feng was speechless. "Sun Jieyuan, where did you get the right to call me uncle? It's hard to say who's older or younger between us!"
"It's based on the lotus leaf!" Constable Sun said confidently, as if Cheng Feng was guilty if he didn't acknowledge him!
Cheng Feng had to admire this man's ability to build connections. Ever since he called him "little uncle," this man had been calling him "little uncle" every time he saw him, even more affectionately than a real uncle.
"Heye already has two sons, stop trying to drag her into this! Isn't your office extremely busy today? I heard you even went out to make arrests!" Cheng Feng was just sitting at home, yet news came from all directions! It was hard not to know!
