Shi Qing was amused by her mom's words. "Mom, you mean that you know what the Feng family thinks of me too?"
Her grandpa and grandma had passed away a long time ago, but her eldest uncle, second uncle, and their families were all still around. On the surface, the Feng family always praised Shi Qing, saying that she was the most promising child in her generation. Although her uncles both had sons, there was not one of them who could match up to Shi Qing.
Behind her back, however, the Feng family had been sour about Shi Qing being unwilling to get close to the Feng family, not even wanting to help her uncle's sons, causing them to lose out on a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The Feng family even mocked Shi Qing, laughing that she had been a soldier for so long that she had no feminine touch to her. That was why she did not even have a boyfriend at the age of forty, much less being married.
