The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 1214

Chapter 1214: Chapter 1035, Lesson

Ganzhou City.

Li Residence.

Feng Liangji hurriedly galloped for several days only to find himself unable to even enter the main gate.

For the simple reason that the master of the Li Family was not at home.

Ever since Li Chenzhi returned from Liangdu, he had anticipated that Feng Liangji might come to look for him. Eager to sort out his sister’s troublemaker, he naturally wouldn’t miss this opportunity and decided to give the guy a hard time.

Ever since the Feng Family became related to the Li Family by marriage, Feng Liangji’s branch had been involved with the direct line of the Feng Family, helping them make a good amount of Silver over the years.

He knew that Feng Liangji’s trip to Xiliang this time was intended to be a big venture, with many from the direct line of the Feng Family having invested silver. If he returned to Zhongzhou in disgrace, it would not only be a laughingstock but also cause the direct line to look down upon him.

Feng Liangji, already somewhat inferior due to his branch family status, would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen and was certain to seek Li Chenzhi’s assistance.

Li Chenzhi had long instructed the gatekeeper that if Feng Liangji sought an audience, he was to be told that both he and his wife were not home.

Looking at the gatekeeper’s dismissive demeanor, Feng Liangji felt a sinking feeling in his heart. He took a deep breath and asked with a smile, "Do you know where my uncle has gone and when he might return?"

Gatekeeper: "My master and madam have gone to inspect the wineries. As for when they’ll return, I really couldn’t say."

Feng Liangji glanced at the slightly ajar gates of the Li Residence, understanding that his uncle was intentionally making things difficult for him. Otherwise, even if the master of the Li Family was not home, as a son-in-law of the Li Family, he should have been invited inside for proper hospitality.

But the Li Family had not done so!

Was his uncle truly not at home?

He knew that over the years, because of Sun Jiayue’s matter, the Li Family had many dissatisfactions with him. Yet he believed he had fulfilled his duties as a husband. The family affairs were always managed by his wife, and he had given her sufficient respect. What more did the Li Family want from him?

This time, his uncle must have heard about the incident too. Given the relationship between the Li Family and the Princess Consort of Weiyuan, they would surely have informed his uncle.

Now that his uncle was unwilling to see him, did that mean he did not want to help him?

But if he didn’t fare well, would his wife and four children do any better?

Thinking about the goods temporarily stored in Bamu Inn, Feng Liangji swallowed his pride. Smiling at the gatekeeper, he said, "I’ll be staying in Ganzhou for a few days, residing in the Sihai Inn. If my uncle returns, please send someone to notify me."

Half a month passed like this. Concerned about Sun Jiayue and the goods in Bamu, and eager to see Li Chenzhi, Feng Liangji had no choice but to come to the Li Residence again, embarrassment notwithstanding.

Before he could speak, the gatekeeper took the initiative to say, "Master Feng, our lord and lady are still not back."

Feng Liangji took a deep breath, "Did they not say when they would return?"

Gatekeeper shook his head: "When the lord and lady go out to inspect the wineries, they may be away for as short as half a month or as long as two to three months. It’s uncertain."

Hearing that Li Chenzhi might not return for another two or three months, Feng Liangji felt utterly disheartened.

Was he supposed to wait here for two or three months, wasting so much time?

After returning without success, Feng Liangji would come to the Li Residence every so often. He wanted to see just how long Li Chengzhi intended to leave him hanging.

After several rebuffs, Feng Liangji initially harbored resentment towards the Li Family’s ruthlessness, but as time passed, he began to regret bringing Sun Jiayue to Xiliang.
