Chapter 1732 Old Master Nan Silently Drank His tea
"Grandfather, Mother," Feng Ao Kuai greeted the two of them. Beside him, Mu Fei Jiu also followed suit.
After that, it was the traditional tea giving ceremony. And Nan Si Qiao gave gifts to Mu Fei Jiu happily. Naturally, the couple was then given time to be together.
Anyway, Feng Ao Kuai also has a holiday today.
"This boy has finally settled down." Nan Si Qiao looked at the back of Feng Ao Kuai and Mu Fei Jiu with emotions. She knew that Feng Ao Kuai was reliable, but it was precisely because of his personality that she thought he would not settle down quickly.
After all, he was an ambitious and also calculated man. He would not do things he was not certain of and will make sure that everything he did would benefit him in the end.
Or have some meanings.
She was not entirely sure, but she knew that Feng Ao Kuai was the type of person who would think a lot.
Now, he could be moved by someone and Nan Si Qiao sighed.
"You're not planning to play the bad mother in law?" Old Master Nan asked with a smile. He knew that some women didn't like it when their son got hooked by a woman and would often make things difficult for them.
In his opinion, as long as his grandson is happy, he would not care too much. Of course, when his daughter got married, he also made some troubles to General Feng.
*cough*
But he would not admit it!
Hmph!
"Ah, should I?" Nan Si Qiao asked and then laughed. "Nah, I liked her. She's a good woman and I'm sure that Feng Ao Kuai also knew that, so he picked her."
A good woman?
Old Master Nan arched his eyebrows and shook his head. If she was only good, there was no way she would enter Feng Ao Kuai's eyes. This young man was not a person who would be moved by kindness.
He was someone who had seen the darkness of the world and also someone who would moved in those words. His world was full of schemings and at the same time, warmth from his family.
Perhaps, if he had been raised in the completely dark family, he would have become more terrifying and inhuman.
But it was good that he was raised here.
A good environment helped to shape a child's personality and upbringing.
Speaking about troublesome people… Old Master Nan thought about Shangguan Yu, who had only recently made another suggestion at the court. No matter how much he didn't like going to the court, he had no other choice but to go occasionally.
And that young man was giving another good suggestion.
When Shangguan Yu came to Feng Ao Kuai's marriage banquet, he had looked in his direction and sent his men to watch over him. After all, Shangguan Yu is a dangerous person.
He could be a double edged sword if he was not properly watched.
But yesterday, Shangguan Yu did nothing but drink wine and give his well wishes, which might not be sincere but who knew?
Old Master Nan smiled faintly and didn't explain to Nan Si Qiao. His daughter might be smart, but she was far from Feng Ao Kuai. She would not realize that there were actually a lot of undercurrents under the seemingly peaceful place.
And Mu Fei Jiu looked very innocent and cute, which made her easily liked by others who saw her.
But beneath her seemingly pure smile was someone who had schemed and caused the death of many people.
Nan Si Qiao didn't know.
He knew and he believed that Feng Ao Kuai also knew his wife is not simple. In a way, those two were quite similar to each other but the way they dealt with things were different.
Well, perhaps similar people attract each other?
Old Master Nan silently drank his tea.
…
<Feng Ao Kuai and Mu Fei Jiu's side>
"This is a really good bracelet," Mu Fei Jiu said as she raised her hand, playing with the jade bracelet that Nan Si Qiao gave to her just now. It was a very beautiful glass jade bracelet that looked very rare. On her arm, it contrasted her skin color, making it looked very beautiful.
"It suits you, so you can use it," Feng Ao Kuai said calmly.
"This bracelet should be very precious. I don't think I would be wiling to use it so often in fear that I'll break it," Mu Fei Jiu sighed and lowered her hand carefully.
Mu Family was also quite rich at a certain time. But at that time, Mu Fei Jiu was not exactly in the position to enjoy those richness. She had to be careful to the other families who wanted to take a bite from them.
Because of those days, she had to put on a fake smile in front of her father, making sure that he would not worry so much.
It was tiring.
But Mu Fei Jiu didn't want her father to worry, so she never told the truth about what had actually happened outside the compound. Her sick father wouldn't be able to take it and Mu Fei Jiu was unwilling to make her father worry more.
He had been heartbroken when her sister was taken to be the princess consort.
Coupled with the treatment from the family who looked down on him because of his weak body, he hadn't been living quite well.
It was up to her to take care of him.
So during those times, Mu Fei Jiu only dressed herself up so that no one would notice and she was able to manipulate those people from the dark.
After the demise of Mu Family, many of their property was seized, so Mu Fei Jiu only has a little saving left. Naturally, she didn't dare to waste money to buy a lot of precious jewelries.
Her situation only improved recently with the profit from her shops, so Mu Fei Jiu also learned the differences between these jewelries.
