Wu Bixia suppressed the feeling in her heart. She sat for a little longer before bidding the members of the Fang family farewell, then left the house with her two sons, her daughter-in-law, and the others. They returned to the guesthouse to settle in.
After they had gone, Feng Qingqing did not leave immediately. She remained in the living room, chatting with Madame Fang. Old Man Fang sat in a corner of the room, looking somewhat troubled. He sighed softly, feeling that Fang Guangmei’s mother-in-law was truly absurd, but there was nothing he could do for the moment; he had to swallow his frustration and say nothing.
While Feng Qingqing spoke with the old lady, her peripheral vision remained fixed on Old Man Fang. Seeing that he ultimately chose to keep silent, she gave a slight nod to herself. Though she would have complied had the old man spoken up, she would have resented it; she had no desire to debase herself for the sake of unreasonable people. She acted according to her own conscience.
