CHAPTER 716: CHAPTER 718, TIANCI’S THOUGHTS (2 MORE)

After taking the box, he looked at the translucent ointment inside, scooped some with the jade spoon on the side, and gently massaged it into his palm.

The hands were still his own, but Feng Wushuang felt they were particularly precious today.

"This ointment is really good!" Feng Wushuang said, looking at the box of ointment.

He thought of his elderly mother.

He hesitated to speak.

Feng Wushuang was decisive and filial, while Old Madam Feng never meddled in affairs nor went out to socialize. She never criticized Feng Wushuang’s actions, even though he had not married at his age—she had not said a word.

"If Sir Feng likes it, I have another box here. I shall give it to Old Madam Feng as a gift!" Yun Jinnian spoke indifferently.

Feng Wushuang was delighted, "Thank you, Commandery Princess!"

"You’re too polite, Sir Feng!"

Feng Wushuang smiled at Yun Jinnian, "Tianci calls me Big Brother Feng, if the Commandery Princess doesn’t mind, perhaps you could too, Big Brother Feng, would that be fine?"

Yun Jinnian was momentarily taken aback, then curtsied towards Feng Wushuang, "It would be my honor, Big Brother Feng!"

"Good, good!" Feng Wushuang’s eyes narrowed with his smile.

The normally self-disciplined man grew somewhat restless. If not for the fact that his mother’s fate was unknown, he would have set off firecrackers, letting everyone share in his joy.

He had grown even closer to Yun Jinnian.

Tea and sweets were served. Feng Wushuang chuckled, "Tianci, Jinnian, try these, the sweets are quite good!"

As he left, he had instructed the dessert chef in the manor to start preparing them, and they were still steaming hot.

Yun Jinnian, not minding Feng Wushuang calling her by her first name, smiled lightly and tasted the sweets, "Oh, they are tasty!"

Han Tianci was a clear observer from the sidelines and, although he might not have understood at first, now he understood Feng Wushuang’s intentions.

He knew how to cater to others’ preferences. Sir Feng was indeed astute.

However, it was also time for someone to provoke Big Brother Chu.

To have allowed that damn cousin to stay in the house!

The maids and grannies attending to Old Madam Feng’s bath were extra careful and conscientious, no longer daring to slack off.

Although Feng Wushuang didn’t say anything, they knew his methods.

They thought that no one would notice.

But Yun Jinnian saw through them at a glance.

Cleaned up and dressed in fresh clothes, Old Madam Feng was moved to a new courtyard.

They went to call for Feng Wushuang and Yun Jinnian.

By the time Yun Jinnian and Feng Wushuang arrived, Old Madam Feng, who had taken the Blood Lotus Pill, had already faintly awakened.

"Wushuang!"

"Mother!"

Feng Wushuang stepped forward and took his mother’s hand.

"Oh, this sleep made me feel like I’ve lost several pounds. I feel much looser all over!"

Although she had been unconscious, she was aware that the maids and grannies weren’t serving her wholeheartedly.

But she couldn’t wake up to complain.

"Mother, your son has been unfilial!" Feng Wushuang was full of regret.

Busy with his duties, he had neglected his own mother.

"No blame to you!" Old Madam Feng said, struggling to sit up. Feng Wushuang quickly helped her.

The maid promptly offered a cushion for support.

As Old Madam Feng sat up, she saw Yun Jinnian nearby, "My benefactor..."

"Old Madam!"

Old Madam Feng rubbed her eyes in disbelief and reached out to Yun Jinnian, who quickly came forward and held the elderly woman’s hand.

"Benefactor, you’ve finally come to see this old lady!" Old Madam Feng said, her eyes welling up with tears.

"Old Madam, when I’m in the Capital City, I will certainly visit you more often!"

"Good, good!"

Old Madam Feng nodded with emotion.

Holding Yun Jinnian’s hands, she looked her over, "Benefactor, you look much healthier than before!"
