The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family

Chapter 957: Chapter 215: Get Out!_2

"The audacity to say that, the sins you committed, the evil you did, you’ve forgotten, but others haven’t!" Lady Yu looked at them with disdain and, too lazy to bother further, went out to find the kitchen, it was time to make some food for Jiujiu and Happy and the other little ones.

"Mother! Look at your beloved daughter-in-law, right in front of you, she dares to treat us so harshly. I don’t know who she learned it from, she acts as if she wants us dead, as if she wishes our entire family would die right before her eyes!" Fang Hui cried as Grandma Fang scoffed.

Grandma Fang felt somewhat helpless, "We don’t live here either, you should go find your own place too!"

Fang Hui didn’t want to go find another place. Living all together, sharing one entrance, others would regard them as part of the General Mansion, and it would give them influence and make handling affairs easier. Denying them a place to live as if it’s all meant for Outsiders’ relatives!?

Soon, she found that although the courtyard was bifurcated into a front and back yard, there were only a few livable rooms. Jiujiu and Happy were to share one room, while the servants occupied the back building. Then there were Pei Wendong, Pei Yuan and his mother, Mrs. Zhao and Old Master Zhao. Not to mention her so-called Outsiders, even the Fang family members themselves had no space to live, not accounting for Fang Fang and Yan Kangyuan’s family, who were also unable to be accommodated.

Feng Shouxing whispered to Fang Hui, "We have small children, let’s secure a room first."

Didn’t everyone have small children? Happy was just over a year old, Fang Fang’s son Yan Xiaolang was also just a year old, Lady Ruan’s son Fang Xiaolang had just turned one as well.

Fang Hui, carrying her grandson and leading her older grandson, had Li Hualing occupy one of the side rooms first and asked Feng Shouxing to seek charcoal from Mo Heng, "My own room stayed warm enough to sweat after a while, but this side room is freezing cold, how can anyone live here!?"

Pei Qin had taken her medication and was asleep, and Mo Heng came out fawning over his daughter, especially Happy, whose little face was almost a carbon copy of Pei Qin’s, but her lips and chin resembled him more.

But Happy didn’t recognize him at all. He had gone to Xining Guard shortly after her full moon celebration and had only come back twice for a couple of days each time. Jiujiu still remembered him enough to call him dad.

As soon as he held her, Happy immediately twisted out of his embrace, stretching her arms for Shen Songming, "Daddy! Daddy!" she called Shen Songming dad.

Mo Heng’s face instantly darkened as if it were the bottom of a pot.

With a cold snort, Shen Songming turned his face and took Happy into his arms, "She’s barely seen her real dad since she was born. I’ve been the one taking care of her for the past six months!"

Happy immediately wrapped her arms around his neck and turned her head looking curiously at Mo Heng.

Jiujiu calls him godfather, and she, just learning to speak, couldn’t quite master it, calling him daddy instead. Shen Songming found the sound of ’daddy’ deeply satisfying, as if he and Pei Qin’s daughter were his own flesh and blood, reluctant to correct her or to allow anyone else to do so.

Zhang Gengshan, watching from the side, felt like crying. Almost every day, he talked about the young master and madam in front of the young misses, yet Young Master Shen kept him running around on errands, keeping him busy. Now the young miss doesn’t even recognize her parents!

Feng Shouxing came to ask for charcoal and hit Mo Heng’s fury, "What charcoal?"

"...The side room is very cold; it’s uninhabitable. I came to get some charcoal. The children can’t withstand it!" Feng Shouxing was still somewhat afraid of Mo Heng, especially seeing his ominous and chilling demeanor, he unconsciously explained a bit more.

Mo Heng’s eyes turned cold as he called loudly for Zhang Gengshan, "Who allowed them to stay?"

Zhang Gengshan glanced at Feng Shouxing and replied, "No one allowed them."

The smile immediately dropped from Feng Shouxing’s face, "Mo Heng! We’re relatives after all, you can’t just throw us all out, old and young, and ignore whether we live or die!"

"I don’t even acknowledge the Mo family, what makes you think I’d acknowledge you!?" Mo Heng coldly raised an eyebrow.

Feng Shouxing was left speechless.

Lu Hai came with the prepared medicine and gave Feng Shouxing a cold look, "This is Daxing County, not the Capital Jingcheng. If you want to go to the Capital, keep heading north." Everyone here was causing a scene, making it impossible for Pei Qin to recuperate.

Feng Shouxing looked at Mo Heng, then at Shen Songming, "Young Master Shen... We came with you after all..."

"Did you cry and beg to follow, thinking it meant you could depend on me forever?" If not for Grandma Fang’s pleading, he would have left them by the roadside.

Feng Shouxing ignored their gazes, hurrying to discuss a plan with Fang Hui.

Meanwhile, Zhang Gengshan quickly went to tell Pei Yuan, Old Scholar Fang, and others that those willing to go to the Capital could continue northward, a half-day’s journey, and those unwilling to go to the Capital should find their own places to rent; the house would not accommodate guests.

Old Scholar Fang also knew they had too many people and simply couldn’t fit everyone, so he had already sent Fang Fu out to make arrangements for accommodations.
