The door opened, and unexpectedly, it was not a servant outside the door, but one of the doormen guarding the front door of the old mansion.
Seeing the door, Feng Ma’s face froze for a moment before she asked with a serious expression, “What’s going on?”
Normally, the doorman would not enter the Old Residence on his own initiative, let alone find his way directly to the Old Lady’s bedroom.
Especially, at this late hour.
From this, it was clear that the doorman was coming over now, presumably because something important was happening.
“Feng Ma, there’s someone from the old mansion, it’s Mr. Fu’s teacher, he’s coming to see the old madam, here’s their invitation.” The doorman replied as he handed Liu Lao’s invitation to Feng Ma.
Feng Ma reached out to take it and flipped it open and looked at it, snickering when she saw the name on the invitation, “Visiting the old madam at this late hour, nothing to do.”
“Then Feng Ma, should I invite him in? Or should we just send them away? If so, I’ll go and send them off.” The doorman looked at Feng Ma and asked.
Feng Ma closed the invitation in her hand, “Wait a moment, I’ll go ask Madam Lu.”
“Okay.” The doorman nodded respectfully.
Feng Ma closed the door behind her and turned around to go back to her room.
Madam Lu was originally lying down, but now at some point she was sitting up again, holding a book in her hand that was being read carefully.
When she saw this, she was not happy, “Madam Lu, why are you up? You’re still reading a book? Didn’t you lie down just now?”
Madam Lu was not angry at Feng’s rebuke, but smiled cheerfully, “Don’t be angry, I couldn’t sleep, so I sat up and read for a while, so I can sleep later when I feel sleepy.”
“But you can’t stay up late, it’s not good for your health.” Feng Ma walked over and was about to take the hand out of Old Madam’s hand, ready to make her lie down again.
But Old Madam already knew what she was up to, and as her hand reached for her book, she immediately took it aside to prevent her from grabbing it.
Feng Ma gasped, “Old Lady you ……”
“Alright Little Feng.” The old lady still had a smile on her face, “I know you’re worried about me, but this is how my body is, how much worse can it get? Don’t worry, I know what’s going on in my heart.”
She was so stubborn and insisted on reading a book for a while before going to sleep, so Feng Ma was at her wits’ end.
At that moment, the old lady suddenly saw the invitation in Feng’s hand, put the book aside and asked, “What is this?”
“Oh, this is an invitation from the Liu family.” Only then did Feng Ma remember what had come and handed the invitation to the old madam.
The old madam reached out and took it, “The Liu family? You mean, the Liu family of Jingting’s teacher?”
“That’s the family.” Feng Ma nodded, “They are outside the old mansion at this moment, saying they want to see you, Old Madam.”
“To see me?” The old madam paused for a moment as she flipped open the invitation.
Feng Ma straightened the blanket on her body, “Yes, I reckon it’s because of the online incident during the day. You know about the online incident, Old Madam, the Liu family’s daughter deliberately framed Miss Rong, trying to make the eldest young master misunderstand Miss Rong, break up with her and rise to the top himself.”
The old lady is no longer in the mood to read the invitation, halfway through and then closed it, like throwing rubbish on the bedside table, sneering: “Liu family that group of people is the kind of, I know only too well, to put it bluntly, is just a group of scoundrels, that Liu family girl has a heart for Jingting, I have long known, only Jingting himself can not see. ”
Feng Ma laughed, “The young master has always been slow to see things like feelings, so it’s good that he can’t see it, to avoid hurting his brain.”
The old lady looked at her with a smile, “Jingting is not really slow, if he were really slow, he would not have fallen in love with Shushu during the exchange of letters with her, without even meeting her.”
“Anyway, no matter what, it’s good that the eldest young master doesn’t know what that Liu family’s thousand-year-old girl has in mind.” Feng Ma said as she poured a gla*s of milk for the old lady.
Milk helped her sleep.
Since the old madam said she couldn’t sleep, she would probably fall asleep soon after drinking more milk.
How could the old madam not know what Feng Ma had in mind, she smiled and didn’t refuse, accepting the milk handed to her, “This time, that Liu family’s thousand-year-old girl is smearing Shushu on the internet, I guess she can’t help it, she doesn’t want to see Jing Ting and Shushu continue to be together anymore, and is afraid that when the time comes, she won’t really be able to rise to the top.”
“Hmph, I really don’t know what young girls are thinking nowadays, they don’t take the right path but have to take these crooked paths, where is the good famous girl, she has to rush to be the mistress.” Feng Ma said with a look of contempt.
The old lady took a sip of milk, and a hint of coldness surfaced in her kind eyes, exactly the same as the coldness Fu Jingting usually had when he looked at people.
I guess that Fu Jingting had learnt a lot of things from the old madam.
“A famous family’s thousand-year-old daughter?” The old madam laughed coldly, “What kind of famous family’s daughter is she, if it wasn’t for old man Liu’s luck to be Jingting’s teacher back then, his Liu family would have disappeared long ago, and would still have been in the ranks of the gentry, making use of Jingting’s name to be a blessing?”
“Old madam, since you know that the Liu family often uses the eldest young master’s name to fox around outside, why don’t you persuade the eldest young master to warn the Liu family?” Feng Ma looked at Old Madam and said that she was a little confused.
The old madam waved her hand, “What’s the use of me saying so, even if Jingting believed me, but without proof, he wouldn’t really break off with the Liu family, after all, the Liu family did have a kindness to Jingting’s studies, and remembering this kindness, I couldn’t say anything, otherwise wouldn’t I be said to have broken the bridge over the river? Even if the Liu family hides it well, one day it will be revealed and Jingting will find out the true nature of the Liu family. By then, the Liu family will have worn out their kindness to Jingting and Jingting will not find it difficult to deal with the Liu family.”
“So that’s how it is.” Feng Ma nodded, indicating that this was a good solution, “I heard that this time, Liu Linlin deliberately framed Miss Rong and had already angered the Eldest Young Master, the Eldest Young Master seems to have decided to break ties with the Liu family, and will even take action against the Liu family, I don’t know if this is true or not, Old Madam, do you want to ask the Eldest Young Master?”
The old lady shook her head, “No need, what you heard should be true, Shushu is Jing Ting’s scales of adversity, the Liu family doing so this time will definitely anger Jing Ting completely, I know Jing Ting, Jing Ting will not let the Liu family go so easily, the reason why I learned about this matter today and didn’t call to ask Jing Ting and Shushu is because I didn’t want to interfere, I was going to let Jing Ting handle it himself. ”
“You really shouldn’t interfere, it’s time to enjoy the peace and quiet.” Feng Ma laughed.
Old Madam also smiled, “You’re right.”
“But this time old man Liu came over to you, I guess he knows that the eldest young master is definitely going to break up with his Liu family, and he can’t contact the eldest young master, so he came to you, trying to start with you, otherwise he wouldn’t have come to visit you, I don’t believe that he visited you because he respects you.” Feng Ma looked aside at the invitation and was full of sneers.
The old lady put the milk aside, “Yes, if I remember correctly, old man Liu has been back in China for some time, right?”
“Half a month now.” Feng Ma returned.
The old lady’s pale hand rested on her abdomen and gently patted it, “Yes, he came back for half a month and didn’t say he came to pay me a visit, so it’s obvious that he didn’t put my old lady in his eyes either, and only now that something has happened did he come over to find me, so it’s obvious that he wants to use me and treat me as a tool, do you think my old lady should be angry?”
