Chapter 1421: Background
Editor: Atlas Studios
The Wei Manor fell into a deep sleep.
Old Matriarch Wei lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
Nanny Li came to the bed and gently lifted the curtain. “Old Madam, are you feeling unwell?”
Old Matriarch Wei sighed. “No, I was thinking about something and couldn’t sleep.”
Nanny Li pulled the hook over and hung the curtain. She helped Old Matriarch Wei sit up. “The Duke, Young Madam, and Young Master are all back. What else do you have to worry about? Could it be the Heir and Madam?”
Thinking of her eldest grandson and eldest grandson’s wife, Old Matriarch Wei could not help but sigh again. “Eldest doesn’t mean what he says. He misses Feifeng, but his words are unpleasant. He’s not like his glib-tongued brothers at all. I’m afraid he won’t be able to keep Feifeng.”
Nanny Li smiled. “Aren’t there the children? If he can’t keep her, Xiyue, Dahu, and the others can. Speaking of which, Madam Heir likes children so much. If only she could have her own children.”
At the mention of this, Old Matriarch Wei was furious. “Hmph, it’s all because Eldest is disappointing!”
After a pause, Old Matriarch Wei asked, “Has the venison soup been stewed tonight?”
“I stewed it and sent it over.”
Nanny Li said.
Old Matriarch Wei said, “Give him another bowl!”
Nanny Li hesitated and said, “It’s so late… I’m afraid the Heir has rested, right?”
Old Matriarch Wei said, “He sleeps on the floor. It would be strange if he could sleep.”
Nanny Li said, “I don’t think so…”
Old Matriarch Wei snorted. “How can I not know the grandson I raised? It’s already good enough that Feifeng didn’t chase him out! He deserves it. Who asked him to treat Feifeng like that back then!”
Nanny Li smiled awkwardly. Good luck. Heir, your biological grandmother won’t spoil you this time.

In the room, Chu Feifeng and the Ghostfear lay on their respective beds.
Just as Old Matriarch Wei had expected, Chu Feifeng slept on the bed while Ghostfear slept on the floor.
The mansion next door had been holding a joyous occasion for the past few days. They had invited an opera troupe to sing and did not stop at night.
It was unknown if the Ghostfear was disturbed by the troupe or if the floor was uncomfortable, but he could not fall asleep.
He glanced at the closed curtain a few times and finally mustered his courage. He coughed lightly and asked, “Feifeng, are you asleep?”
Chu Feifeng said, “No.”
Ghostfear: “Can’t you sleep?”
Chu Feifeng said, “No.”
The Ghostfear opened his mouth, not knowing how to continue.
He was not like Second Brother who was good at dancing, nor was he like Little Six who was straightforward, nor was he as thick-skinned as Little Seven.
He was looking for a topic for a long time and was about to say, “This side is hard. Can I push my mat closer to the bed?”
Perhaps it was because he was nervous, but the moment she opened her mouth, he said, “Feifeng, can I sleep on the bed?”
His entire face turned red.
“Um… I…”
Chu Feifeng said, “Come up.”
“Yes?”
The Ghostfear was stunned.
He almost suspected that he had heard wrongly.
Did Feifeng… agree for him to sleep on the bed herself?
He would be a fool to continue holding it!
Without a word, the Ghostfear jumped onto the bed with the pillow at lightning speed.
“Fei…”
Just as he was about to speak excitedly, a sloppy voice sounded casually. “You’re here, Brother?”
Ghostfear’s expression froze and it immediately focused.
Xiaohu lay beside Chu Feifeng with his hands behind his head. He crossed his legs leisurely, looking like he was asking for a beating.
The Ghostfear’s pupils trembled. “Why is he here?”
Chu Feifeng said, “Xiaohu will sleep with me tonight.”
The Ghostfear was speechless.

Yun Shuang woke up halfway.
She subconsciously pushed open the door and went to the courtyard next door.
However, she only saw Jiang Guanchao in the courtyard and did not see Wei Xiaobao.
