Chapter 89 The Feng Family is Shocked by the Taste of Watermelon

Ever since the rice was stored in the warehouse, he has been so excited that he can't sleep every day, as if he has foreseen the future prosperity of his family.

Finally, Feng Mulin and his wife, who had been waiting outside the city gate for a long time, saw Feng Qingyu arriving, exhausted.

Feng Mulin strode forward, laughed and patted his son's shoulder: "Ayu, you're finally back! Let's go home."

Two quarters of an hour later, they returned to Feng Mansion. At the dinner table, Feng Qingyu suddenly announced his plan: "Dad, I'm going to leave for Chuanzhou tomorrow." He seemed to have made full preparations and planned to leave immediately.

When Feng Yu heard this, the spoon in her hand paused slightly. She turned to look at her son with a reluctant expression on her face: "You're leaving so soon, just after coming back?" She obviously didn't want her son to leave so soon.

Feng Mulin seemed relatively open-minded. He waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Yes, you just came back. The tribute rice issue has been resolved. There is no rush." ​​He didn't seem to mind his son leaving immediately.

However, Feng Qingyu seemed a little hesitant. He was considering whether to tell his father and mother about his thoughts. At this moment, Feng Yu noticed her son's strangeness and made a gesture to the maid behind her.

At once, all the servants in the room left the room, leaving only Feng Mulin, Feng Yushi and Feng Qingyu.

Feng Mulin asked seriously, "Tell me, what's going on?"

Feng Qingyu took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Dad, Mom, I met a girl in Yunwu Town in Chuanzhou."

"Young lady?" Feng Yu and Feng Mulin exclaimed in surprise at the same time. They looked at each other and thought that their son had a lover outside.

Feng Qingyu nodded and continued to explain: "Yes, there is a master behind this girl. The tribute rice this time was provided by that master."

Feng Mulin frowned and asked curiously, "Master? Who is that master?"

Feng Qingyu shook his head and said frankly: "I don't know the true identity of that expert either. But he has countless resources. I have had contact with him several times, but I still can't figure out his details."

Feng Mulin looked at his son in front of him with some surprise: "So you decided to go to Chuanzhou in person this time?"

Feng Qingyu nodded, his eyes firm: "Yes, Dad. I think this is an opportunity. Compared with dealing with the imperial merchants, I think going to Chuanzhou to contact that girl may help the Feng family's business to a higher level."

"Dong dong dong."

There was a knock on the door, followed by the maid's voice: "Master, your letter was sent by a fast horse from Chuanzhou."

When Feng Qingyu heard this, her heart moved. She quickly stood up, walked to the door, opened it, and took the letter handed to her by the maid.

After a while, he finished reading the letter and showed an excited expression on his face: "Dad, that girl is really not simple. She opened an oden restaurant in Yunwu Town. The business is extremely hot. Now she has bought many shops."

Feng Mulin's expression also turned serious: "If the master behind that girl really wants to take action, then he must take over some important stores in Yunwu Town. This is both an opportunity and a challenge for us."

Feng Qingyu nodded, his eyes gleaming with anticipation: "Hong Ni has already sent people to buy those shops, I will rush over tomorrow. I believe there must be a surprise waiting for me there." He was a little impatient and even wanted to set off now.

"Oh, right, Dad." Feng Qingyu suddenly remembered something and turned to shout outside, "Bring in the fruit that the girl sent."

a moment later

Hong Shang took the lead and led a group of maids into the house in an orderly manner. She signaled the maids to remove the food on the table, and then personally placed a plate of watermelon on the table.

"Master, I specifically asked the girl that time that the watermelon needs to be cut with a knife." Hong Chang said as she picked up a sharp knife from the plate in the maid's hand.

The emerald green skin of the watermelon was covered with dark green stripes, just like a fine floral coat. Hong Chang gently touched the skin of the watermelon, which felt delicate and smooth.

She skillfully cut the watermelon with a knife, and immediately the bright red flesh was exposed, and the sweet watermelon juice flowed out. In the flesh were black seeds, like black pearls dotted in red gems.

"The girl also specifically mentioned that we should take these black seeds back." Hong Shang continued to cut the watermelon into small pieces and then placed the cut watermelon pieces on the Feng family's table.

Before Feng Yu put the food in her mouth, she could smell a faint fragrance. She took a bite, and her lips and tongue were stained with bright red juice, which was sweet.

"It tastes beautiful, sweet and very delicious." She couldn't help but take another bite, and she still felt a little unsatisfied after swallowing the whole piece.

Feng Qingyu was stunned, and immediately picked up the watermelon on the table and put it into his mouth. The moment the watermelon entered his mouth, he was shocked.

"I feel this sweet melon juice filling every gap between my teeth and flowing into every corner of my mouth." Suddenly he felt a coolness all over his body, it was so refreshing!

"Ah, it's sweet and cool, moistening my throat and flowing into my heart. It feels really good." Feng Mulin was also surprised by the taste.

"Hongshang, cut the watermelon in half and send it to the harem so that Concubine Feng can have a taste as well." Feng Qingyu ordered.

"Yes, master." Hong Chang agreed quickly, and then asked someone to bring an exquisite food box, cut the cut watermelon into pieces carefully, and then ordered the housekeeper in the mansion to send it to the harem immediately.

When Feng Mulin heard Feng Qingyu's order, he immediately stood up, his face full of surprise.

He knew very well the value behind this watermelon. If the right to supply this watermelon was in the hands of the Feng family, the status of the Feng family would be greatly improved, and naturally they would no longer have to fear families like the Liu family.

He patted Feng Qingyu's shoulder excitedly: "Ayu, this watermelon..."

Feng Qingyu nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, it is what you think."

Feng Mulin's mood was difficult to calm down. The hidden injuries of many years seemed to have healed for the most part at this moment. He took a deep breath, with a determined light flashing in his eyes: "Ayu, no matter what, we must make friends with that girl, no matter what the cost.

Even if…” He paused and gave Feng Qingyu a look, the meaning of which was obvious—even if it means sacrificing your marriage.

Feng Qingyu felt a little helpless. He certainly understood his father's intention.

But the guardian beside the girl was obviously not someone to be trifled with, so how could he get close to her? Even if he really wanted to, the girl might not accept it.

He sighed, but still responded solemnly: "Dad, I know."

Daxuan Dynasty, Harem, Xige

"Master, the Feng family has sent food. It is said to be a new thing." The maid respectfully took the food box, opened it and placed it on Concubine Feng's table.

Concubine Feng was feeling a little heavy. Her daughter Xuan Yushi's face was covered with red pimples recently. Although she had consulted many imperial doctors, her condition did not improve. She was anxious, but she had no idea what to do.

"My eldest brother, how is your health recently?" Although Concubine Feng was concerned about her eldest brother's health, she was more concerned about her daughter's condition at this time. She didn't even have the mood to see what new things were in the food box.

She was at her wits' end and suddenly thought of her elder brother. She decided to seek the help of her elder brother to find a miracle doctor who could heal her daughter's face.

In her mind, only the Bai family has such medical skills. But the Bai family has lived in the mountains for a long time, so it is not easy to find them.

"I want to see my elder brother. Please tell him to come to the palace for lunch." Concubine Feng ordered the maid to get the token. In the Daxuan Dynasty, concubines who gave birth to children could see their natal family. This was also the rule left by the previous emperor.

"By the way, master, the person who brought the food said that the second master is back as well." The maid added.

Concubine Feng was delighted to hear this, as she had not seen her nephew Feng Qingyu for a long time. She decided to let her elder brother bring Feng Qingyu into the palace.

"Let big brother take A Yu with him." Feng Fei ordered, and then took the nanny and the food box, ready to go see her daughter.

She thought that if her daughter knew that her cousin was back, she would be very happy. Thinking of this, Feng Fei quickened her pace.

a moment later

"If you don't want to eat, get out of here!" Xuan Yushi picked up the vase and smashed it to the ground. This was the eighteenth vase she had broken.

Her anger was like an out-of-control flood, forcing the maids and servants beside her to kneel on the ground, not daring to breathe.

Nanny Liu looked at Xuan Yushi with pity. She hadn't eaten for a day, and her face had become unusually pale since the imperial physician left yesterday.

Madam Liu didn't understand why her princess suddenly suffered from such a disease. Especially when the imperial physician mentioned that scars might be left, Xuan Yushi's tears never stopped. She knew that for a girl, the importance of face was self-evident.

"The Queen of Wind has arrived!" A notification broke the silence in the room.

Xuan Yushi was stunned, then gave Liu Ma a look. After receiving the order, Liu Ma and others stood up quickly and began to direct the maids to clean up.

Concubine Feng walked into the room and saw the debris all over the floor and the maids kneeling. Her face darkened: "Shi'er, why are you throwing things again?" She frowned, obviously dissatisfied with Xuan Yushi's behavior.
