Chapter 80: Why Would They Do Such a Thing?
Chapter 80: Why Would They Do Such a Thing?
Feng Xuanbo's words truly angered Feng Xuanrui.
He really wanted to step forward and punch him.
But he endured it!
His wounds had just healed; where would he go if he broke his head again?
However, standing there in the room, Feng Xuanrui feared he wouldn't be able to control himself.
Finally, with no other choice, he turned and pulled Suisui, gritting his teeth as he said, "Little sister, let's go first!"
Feng Xuanrui deliberately emphasized the word 'sister'.
After speaking, he proudly glanced at Feng Xuanbo and then left, pulling Suisui's hand as he strode away.
Suisui had originally been frantically protecting her brother, bustling about, only to discover...
Hey?
Her help wasn't needed?
Although she felt a bit disappointed, it was still good that her brother wasn't being bullied anymore.
She obediently allowed Feng Xuanrui to lead her away.
Feng Xuanbin, who had been clapping and enjoying the show, hurried after them when he saw that his sixth brother was leaving, and his sister wanted to go too: "Hey, Sixth Brother, wait for me! Sister, wait for me too!"
Feng Xuanbo had already prepared himself for another fight.
He calculated the force he would use to fall and feign injury, so that Feng Xuanrui would hand over his sister, and he could take care of her for a few days.
Suisui was still so young; what was wrong with him taking care of her for a couple of days?
It was what an older brother should do!
But then, Feng Xuanrui actually endured it?!
Feng Xuanbo was a little surprised, but in an instant, he understood, and a vague warmth spread through his heart.
Little Six probably felt too ashamed to truly hurt him!
However, if he didn't hit him, what about his sister?
Feng Xuanbo thought Suisui's eyes were especially beautiful.
Those starry eyes were truly captivating.
Feng Xuanbo felt he hadn't had his fill of looking at them and wanted to gaze at them for a few more days.
Moreover, he didn't know what it was like to have a sister.
He hadn't had one before and hadn't expected to ever have one.
Now that he did...
He unconsciously wanted more.
Even though they had just met, Feng Xuanbo felt that...
Suisui was meant to be his little sister.
With these thoughts in mind, Feng Xuanbo quickly straightened his clothes and hurried after them. "Little Six, wait for me! Sister, Fifth Brother is coming too!"
His voice was no different from crying wolf.
Upon hearing this, Feng Xuanrui pulled Suisui's hand and started running.
Feng Xuanbin had short and stout legs, and it was already difficult for him to keep up. Now that they were running...
He fell far behind!
Although Suisui's legs were also short, her stamina was much better than Feng Xuanbin's.
While she struggled a bit to keep up with Feng Xuanrui's pace, she could still manage by gritting her teeth.
And so...
Feng Xuanrui pulled Suisui as they ran ahead, Feng Xuanbin cried and struggled to follow behind, and Feng Xuanbo brought up the rear.
Concubine Ren was worried and wanted to come over to see her son, but when she arrived, she witnessed this scene.
She stood by the artificial mountain, watching for a long time before asking the maid beside her, "What... is going on?"
Xianglan, the maid, hadn't understood the situation either. She had only heard that the Sixth Young Master had brought back a young child, and she hadn't been able to find out more yet.
The back garden of the Prince Qi's Mansion could be considered harmonious, so they usually didn't pry into matters concerning the Princess.
Now, both the mistress and the servant were perplexed by the situation.
Concubine Ren wanted to stop Little Five and ask him about what was happening.
However, Feng Xuanbo rushed past as if he hadn't seen his mother, like a gust of wind blowing by Concubine Ren.
Concubine Ren: ?
I came to see you because I was worried that your wounds hadn't fully healed and that you might be bullied by Little Six again.
And this is how you treat your mother?
Concubine Ren was left disheveled and confused by the wind.
Finally, she touched her temple and, realizing that her hair bun hadn't been blown askew, waved her hand. "Let's go back."
Seeing that the children seemed to have reconciled, she decided not to interfere further.
Suisui, who was always attentive, naturally noticed the beautiful aunt who had appeared.
But she was running with her brother, her mouth agape as the wind rushed in.
In the end, she didn't get a chance to ask who the beautiful aunt was.
As for Feng Xuanbo?
Of course, he had seen his birth mother.
But he could see her every day, whereas he wouldn't always have a sister.
So, chase after his sister first!
The children ran and played all the way back to the rear courtyard of the main courtyard.
The Princess Consort Qi had just instructed Autumn Aunt about dinner preparations.
With the children back, she wanted to prepare a more sumptuous meal with meat.
The Princess Consort Qi usually preferred a lighter, more vegetarian diet.
The eldest son was at the Imperial College and didn't often return home.
If the Prince didn't return and Little Six wasn't around, then it would just be her eating alone, so the kitchen naturally catered to her preferences.
Now that a young mistress and a young guest had returned, the Princess Consort Qi was concerned and personally went to give instructions.
Just as she returned, she saw Feng Xuanbo pulling Suisui along as they ran, their heads and faces covered in sweat.
Seeing this, the Princess Consort Qi felt her temples throbbing. "Little Six!!!" she exclaimed sternly.
Startled by the Princess Consort Qi's sudden outburst, Feng Xuanrui immediately stopped and panted heavily.
It was then that he realized he had been running too fast for Suisui to keep up.
Now that they had stopped, the little girl was supporting herself on one knee, her face pale as she gasped for breath.
Seeing this, Feng Xuanrui felt guilty.
He was usually rough and tumble and didn't often carry handkerchiefs.
He searched his sleeves and waist for a while but found nothing. Finally, he turned to the Princess Consort Qi and asked, "Mother, do you have a handkerchief? I want to wipe my sister's sweat."
Hearing this, Suisui quickly shook her head, her breath still ragged as she said, "No, it's fine, Brother..."
Suisui was truly exhausted from the run, her shiny forehead covered in sweat.
The Princess Consort Qi felt both angry and heartbroken at the sight.
She sighed softly, walked over, took out a handkerchief, and gently wiped the sweat from Suisui's face.
Feeling the Princess Consort Qi's warm hand gently wiping her face, Suisui felt embarrassed.
She pursed her lips and stole a quick glance at the Princess Consort before lowering her gaze, her voice small and hesitant as she said, "Mother..."
Suisui didn't know if a mischievous child like her would still be wanted by the Princess Consort.
She thought that if she wasn't wanted, she could just be a well-behaved child from now on!
The Princess Consort Qi didn't understand the thoughts running through the little girl's mind, but she sensed Suisui's anxiety.
Gently wiping away the sweat from Suisui's face and head, the Princess Consort Qi softly acknowledged her and asked in a gentle tone, "Suisui, are you hungry? What would you like to eat tonight?"
The Princess Consort had responded.
Did that mean she still wanted her?
Suisui felt anxious as she wondered, stealing another quick glance at the Princess Consort before shaking her head and replying meekly, "Suisui isn't picky, I can eat anything."
As soon as these words left Suisui's mouth, the Princess Consort Qi's expression changed slightly.
She thought of what the Prince of Qing had said earlier—that this child had once even eaten chicken feed.
Bran mixed with wild grass and wild vegetable roots...
The Princess Consort Qi couldn't even begin to imagine what a complex and unpleasant taste that would be.
Yet, this was the food Suisui had eaten the most in her life.
Because Chen Daling's family didn't give her meals, they would occasionally give her some leftover soup or water, sometimes even spoiled, and only then because she was starving.
If Suisui didn't eat these things, she wouldn't survive.
Thinking of Suisui's past, the Princess Consort Qi felt heartache wash over her.
She thought: Clearly such a well-behaved child, why would those people treat her so cruelly?
