Chapter 262 - Third Feng Family Fourth Master
Chapter 262 – Third Feng Family Fourth Master
"Mother…"
"Don't talk more, your uncles are here."
Feng Mo Yue shut her mouth, still feeling a bit aggrieved. The males were all talking with each other first, so they only joined in with the children later on. It was clear that there were not many tables that was still empty since the four brothers usually sat in the same table.
This time, though, they didn't do that.
General Feng took a seat in a table with Feng Ao Si with him. The table was right beside the table where Feng Ao Kuai was located. The table itself was quite big, but with General Feng, it already looked cramped.
Third Feng Family Fourth Master, Feng Qian Han, sat on the same table with his first brother. He didn't really have that favorable position within the family and it was clear that many people disliked him because of that.
The other two sat with their wives.
As for Old Master Feng, he looked in Feng Qian Shao (General Feng) direction coldly. It was as if he was not looking at his own son but at an enemy. What had happened for the past few days clearly made him extremely resentful. Who would have thought that it was his first son who would make the first move and immediately asked for them to separate?
He thought that the Feng Family could be harmonious.
Thus, he didn't sit with Feng Qian Shao and instead sat on a separate table in the middle. Everyone was looking in his direction and only when he started eating did the others began to eat.
The atmosphere was somewhat tense.
It took some time until the children couldn't stand it anymore and began to chatter. After some time, the adults also followed suit.
"Fourth Brother, are you going to the battlefield again?" Feng Qian Shao asked his fourth brother in front of him.
Feng Qian Han was indeed a soldier, but he looked quite different from General Feng. He was skinny, totally unlike that of soldiers. His slender figure made him looked like a sickly person rather than a powerful soldier. This question made him look a bit more miserable in front of Feng Qian Shao.
He smiled bitterly. "First Brother, you must be joking. I can't possibly head to the battlefield by myself."
"Did your squad disband again?" Feng Qian Shao's lips twitched.
This time, Feng Qian Han didn't answer. However, his pitiful look that seemed to invoke sympathy already told him the answer.
"Be strong, Fourth Brother."
"Yeah."
As they were talking with each other, an adult came to them. He was also slender but his body proportion didn't make him look sickly. Instead, he looked like an annoying young master even though he was already in his early thirties.
"First Brother, Fourth Brother, are you talking about wars again?"
"Third Brother," Feng Qian Shao greeted the other party calmly.
The third brother, Feng Qian Kun, was the only one who was different from the others. He's the only one amongst his brother who didn't want to become soldier. He studied hard and passed the local examination. But since he failed in the next level, he had assumed position as local official in Wind City.
Even though it was only as local official, it was still quite a high position.
Because of his presence, the Feng Family could be said to be covered at all sides in Wind City with no one would dare to offend them. That was unless they were intentionally seeking death.
Feng Qian Kun smiled faintly. "Are you going to leave again soon, First Brother?"
"The war is not over yet." In truth, Feng Qian Shao was supposed to be staying at the frontline at this time. He took leave because his wife was sick so badly that he had to return. After this, he would voluntary ask for punishment for abandoning his post even though there was no war.
The punishment wouldn't be that severe. At most, he would be canned or fined some money.
It was nothing much for him.
"That's too bad. Some other officials wish to meet with you." Feng Qian Kun sighed.
"I'll meet them when there's time in the future," Feng Qian Shao rejected politely. Who knew when he would have time when he spent his time in the frontline? After he had settled the separation with his second brother, he would be going to the frontline again since Nan Si Qiao was already getting better.
"I see."
Feng Qian Kun didn't spend much time with his first brother. He only talked about some other trivial matters before heading back to his own table.
The children were all still chatting around and those who had finished eating were running here and there. They couldn't sit still obediently, so the adults allowed them to play around a bit after they had finished eating.
General Feng rubbed his forehead. He looked at the two children near Feng Ao Kuai and nudged his first son. "How's your relationship with your cousins?"
"It's…. good?"
"I mean your cousins from your mother's side." General Feng felt a bit of headache whenever he talked with Feng Ao Si. For some reasons, he felt that his son didn't really bear his intelligence and quite stupid.
Feng Ao Si's lips twitched. He looked at Nan Hua and Nan Luo, thinking for the best answer he could give. He definitely couldn't say that he had been thrashed during practice by them, right?
"Luo is a good sparring partner. Hua is… good."
