Shen Yi Di Nu, Divine Doctor: Daughter Of The First Wife

480

The God of Plague Has Come

At night, Feng Yu Heng brought Xiang Rong and Zi Rui over to the Feng manor’s side to stand vigil. Right before leaving, they went to Yao shi’s courtyard and casually asked the servant what Yao shi was doing, and the servant told her: “Madam is praying in the temple. She said that she is sending elder madam Feng off.”

Feng Yu Heng stopped and looked into the courtyard before placing Zi Rui’s hand in Xiang Rong’s hand: “Bring Zi Rui over first. I will go and see mother before going.” After saying this, she brought Huang Quan and Wang Chuan over to the temple.

The maidservant said that Yao shi had been praying whenever she had time. Divine doctor Yao spoke a few times without any results, thus he did not say anything else. Whenever Yao shi went to pray, divine doctor Yao would go to Zi Rui’s study. The two did not interact much.

Feng Yu Heng knew that Yao Xian was not too close with Yao shi, thus she did not have too many requests. When she entered the temple, Yao shi had just finished a prayer and turned around to look at her.

She kept her servants outside and walked in on her own then helped Yao shi up. She clearly advised her: “Mother, your health is not too good. In the future, you should spend a little less time praying! As a person, the most important things are to have good intentions and a clear conscience. Only like that can one avoid falling into the 18 levels of hell. It does not rely on the daily prayers of the living.”

Yao shi sighed. Holding Feng Yu Heng’s hand, she said: “In any case, we were once mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. She was just a little bit greedy. Aside from chasing us to the Northwest, she did not do anything to harm us. A-Heng, the things of the past are already in the past. She is already no longer alive. You should not fuss over her.”

Feng Yu Heng looked at Yao shi, and a faint smile continued to linger on her face; however, she let out a faint sigh on the inside. She knew that Yao shi really enjoyed the current life, especially with Yao Xian returning, she felt even more at ease. She had indeed hated that Feng manor, but Yao shi was different from her after all. She did not hate them like an enemy. When she was able to receive an imperial decree allowing her to divorce Feng Jin Yuan, she had already exerted the most courage that she could. Now that things had changed, she felt that life had improved, and she no longer hated them.

But Yao shi did not know that during those three years, her real daughter’s life had been lost. The real Feng Yu Heng would never return.

But there was no way for her to say this to Yao shi, and she was even more powerless to have her continue to hate the Feng manor. Since Yao shi chose to forgive and forget, she would allow her to. Although Feng Yu Heng never agreed with “forgiveness is the greatest virtue” she did not want to force her thoughts on Yao shi. She could only say a few words of advice before leaving the temple and hastily head toward the Feng manor.

Today, everyone from the younger generation was present in the mourning hall, as even Fen Dai had come. Although her injuries had not yet healed completely, and she still required a servant to help her walk, and she could not even remain kneeling in front of the matriarch’s coffin for very long, but she still kowtowed three times to the matriarch. She then had a maidservant support her while she lit three sticks of incense.

Feng Jin Yuan was also present tonight. He currently stood to the side and nodded while watching Fen Dai. When Fen Dai finished lighting her incense, he finally spoke up and said: “Your grandmother died from being beaten by the troublemakers. In the last moments, you used your body to protect her. The injuries that you had suffered were to protect your grandmother from being hurt. The Feng family will always remember this.”
