His wife was giving his family favours, but his family was in the way of his wife’s majesty, and they all behaved outside with their tails between their legs, keeping a low profile.
In front of his wife, they were even more lowly, more like servants than servants.
All of this made Zheng Hua dissatisfied inwardly, and the only way to do so was to place all of his hopes in his daughter’s body.
“Ah Ruo, there is no way for dad to change what your mum has said, go and talk to your mum, dad really can’t do anything about it, you didn’t listen to Feng Qing, I’m the man your mum married into the family, what family status does a man who marries into the family have.”
“Dad.”
Zheng Hua said helplessly, “Ah Ruo, dad really has no way, what is dad’s status in the family, you also know.”
Feng Ruo beamed.
Knowing that her father was telling the truth.
In the Feng family, she, the adoptive father, had no say.
In the study on the first floor, the Feng family head was already sitting in front of the desk, waiting for Feng Qing to come in, she said, “Close the door to the room and unlock it.”
Feng Qing did as she was told.
“What’s going on with the car breaking down?”
Feng family head asked.
“It was tampered with.”
Feng Family Lord leaned back in his chair and asked his daughter, “Is there anyone you suspect?”
“Other than my father and my brothers and sisters-in-law and your favourite Feng Ruo, I can’t think of anyone else.”
After hearing his daughter’s answer, the Feng family master did not get angry, he just remained silent for a moment before saying, “Mom’s feelings towards Feng Ruo are now very complicated, however, the rules of our Feng family cannot be changed.”
The meaning was to let Feng Qing feel at ease, after she retired, the position of Feng family head must be Feng Qing’s.
“Mum should let Feng Ruo go back to her family.”
Feng family head smiled, “Ah Qing, those who are not biological are always not biological, she is still somewhat useful, at least she can give you sword practice, keep it for now.”
Sometimes, when she was angry, she would say harsh words to Feng Ruo, but in the end, she still kept Feng Ruo.
Her own daughter couldn’t have smooth sailing, that way she couldn’t even be a Lord of Shoucheng.
She was still counting on her daughter to be better and more powerful than her.
At least for now, Feng Qing was a very business minded one, acting calmly and steadily, her ideal successor.
Sometimes, she would think that if her daughter had not been switched twenty years ago, and Feng Qing had been nurtured by her as a successor since she was a child, nowadays, Feng Qing would definitely be able to be the head of the family, and she would be able to step back and live an easy life of retirement.
Sitting in the position of the head of the family, one could gain a lot, but also lose a lot.
Perhaps it was because she was getting older, but recently, the Feng family head was always thinking about her parents and sisters.
Especially her eldest sister.
She was brought up by her eldest sister, who loved her the most, and her youngest sister and her second sister were also the closest, but she had broken the sisterhood with her own hands for the sake of her ambition.
Now, she had remorse, but unfortunately there was no medicine for regret, much less the ability to turn back the clock.
“Besides them, I also suspect mum.”
Feng family head froze for a moment, then laughed, “Everyone can be the object of your suspicion until it’s checked out.”
“Let people investigate, as long as there’s evidence and proof, Ma is on your side.”
“You and Qiao Shao, is it really impossible? Why does mum feel that the two of you are quite destined to meet him often, and he looks at you in a different light.”
Feng family head was really admiring Qiao Han.
