480 Take away
That day, his youngest son Liu Yuxiao went out of the house to play, but he came back in trouble, he remembered the Wen family's Wen Luxian, for fear that the youngest son would be the same as that Wen Luxian, and make something out of control, so he reprimanded him.
At that time, Liu Shen did come to him and talked about Liu Minfang's injury in the mansion, but in Liu Chi's heart, Liu Minfang was just a dumb girl, and it was difficult to even get married, so how could she take it to heart?
He remembered that Liu Shen seemed to have mentioned the matter of the Guo family at that time, and he seemed to have said something else in his words, but at that time, he was all about his youngest son, and without waiting for Liu Shen to finish speaking, he directly interrupted him and asked him to deal with it himself, how could he have thought that what he was talking about at that time was actually about Ma Yujie......
Thinking of this, Liu Chi's face was a little ugly.
How well did Liu Xiangcheng know his son, seeing this, he knew that what Liu Shen said was true, and he suddenly said angrily: "Foolish thing, I'm not in the mansion, everything in this mansion is up to you, you don't even care about such things?"
Liu Chi couldn't help but defend in a low voice: "Father, I really don't know what the third brother said that day, not to mention that even if I don't know, there is a second brother in this house, why didn't the third brother tell the second brother......"
Liu Shen frowned when he heard Liu Chi's words: "At that time, Ma Yujie assassinated Guo Ji, who would have thought that his matter would involve Jiang Jinsong, and who would have thought that it was not the first time that they sold exam questions." β
"Besides, although my father is teaching in Hanshan Yuan, although Jiang Jinsong is also your protΓ©gΓ©, but the leaking of the question has nothing to do with you, although you participated in the question, but you are not the only one who asked the question, even if Jiang Jinsong is really found to have any problems, it will not implicate you, why should my father be so angry?"
Liu Xiangcheng listened to Liu Shen's words, looked at his righteous face, and opened his mouth to speak.
He has three sons, the eldest and the second are all shrewd people, but Liu Shen is a rigid person, and his scheming city government is inferior to his two brothers. After Liu Minfang fell ill and suffered from a dumb disease, Liu Shen's wife has never been pregnant again, he once made decisions with his old wife, and wanted to let the three rooms continue the incense for Liu Shen's concubine, but Liu Shen said that he didn't obey anything, and even directly put him in the concubine room in the house and sent him out.
Liu Xiangcheng has always felt that Liu Shen does not know how to be flexible, so he has never let Liu Shen participate in many things in the house, and in Liu Shen's eyes, the Liu family has always been ignorant of government politics or even away from court disputes.
Now in the face of Liu Shen's unknowing questioning, Liu Xiang was speechless for a while.
If you want to blame Liu Shen, there is no way to blame it.
Liu Chi and Liu Zheng listened to Liu Shen's words, and just wanted to speak, Liu Xiangcheng directly waved his hand with a calm face: "Okay, now that this matter is over, don't talk about it anymore." β
"Father. β
"Alright. β
Liu Xiangcheng interrupted Liu Zheng's words, turned his head to Liu Shen and said, "Third brother, how is Minfang's injury?"
Liu Shen heard Liu Xiangcheng mention Liu Minfang, and his face softened a little: "The doctor said that it didn't hurt the muscles and bones, and after a few days of recuperation, except for some inconvenience in moving, there is no major problem." β
"That's good. Earlier, your mother talked about the family affairs for Minfang, and I also passed the eyes, although the other party has no family background, but he is also a motivated person, you go back and discuss it with the Su family, find a time to meet that person, if you think it's okay, you can settle it for them. β
"Father..."Liu Shen opened his mouth and wanted to refuse.
Liu Xiangcheng said directly: "Third, Min Fang is not young. β
The words in Liu Shen's mouth were all blocked.
Seeing Liu Xiangcheng looking at him with a slightly calm face, Liu Shen was silent for a moment before lowering his head and saying, "I know, father." β
"Alright, if it's okay, you can go back first. β
When Liu Shen saw Liu Xiangcheng's appearance, he knew that he had something to discuss with Liu Chi and Liu Zheng, since he refused the concubine room arranged by his mother, Liu Xiangcheng became more and more indifferent to him, he had long been accustomed to the fact that the affairs of the house were all decided by his father, eldest brother and second brother, and he didn't want to or have no intention of interfering in their affairs.
Liu Shen saluted Liu Xiangcheng, then nodded at Liu Chi and Liu Zheng, and retreated directly.
After leaving Liu Xiangcheng's study and walking outside the courtyard, looking at the lotus flowers in full bloom in the pond, Liu Shen's expression showed a mixture. He stood by the lotus pond for a long time before returning to his lodgings.
In the courtyard, Su Shi and Liu Minfang were sitting under the porch doing Kodan, Liu Minfang was wearing a long green dress, holding a flower in her hand, and her always restrained and cold face had a slight smile.
"The third master is back. β
The voice of the maid at the door came.
Su Shi and Liu Minfang turned their heads at the same time, and when they saw Liu Shen coming in from outside the door, the mother and daughter showed smiling faces at the same time, and Su Shi hurriedly smiled and said, "Father didn't have something to look for you, why did you come back so soon?"
"It's not a big deal, with the eldest brother and the second brother here, I can't help much. β
After Liu Shen finished speaking casually, he walked to the side of the mother and daughter, and said to Su Shi: "I remember that I got a box of purple gold ink before, and when I wanted to use it yesterday, I don't know where to put it, have you seen it?"
"Isn't it just in your study?" Su Shi said in surprise.
Liu Shen shook his head: "I didn't find it, Madame help me find it, I'm useful." β
Su Shi listened to Liu Shen's words, frowned and glanced at him, seeing that Liu Shen's expression was a little low, his heart beat slightly, and he hurriedly put down the things in his hand and said to Liu Minfang: "Fang'er, you get it first, I'll go find his baby ink for your father." β
Liu Minfang smiled, nodded, and continued to fiddle with the things in his hand again.
After Liu Shen and Su went to the study together, Su couldn't wait to ask, "Husband, what's going on, but what's wrong with my father?"
"Not the father. β
Liu Shen shook his head and said, "It's Minfang's marriage." β
Su Shi was first overjoyed when she heard Liu Shen's words, but before that joy could be revealed, it touched the look on Liu Shen's face, and her heart suddenly sank, bit her lip and said, "It's a family matter mentioned by my mother again?"
Seeing his wife's appearance, Liu Shen said in a low voice: "Father said that it was the person that his mother chose for Minfang, and he also passed the eye, although the other party has no family background, but he is also a motivated person..."
As soon as Su Shi heard Liu Shen's words, he immediately became anxious: "I have never disliked that the other party has no family background, and I don't want Min Fang to marry someone from a wealthy family, but don't you know what the people my mother chose before are like?"
"Min Fang is dumb, but she is also the daughter of the Liu family, our daughter who grew up with thousands of pets, in this Liu Mansion, which girl's marriage is not a thousand choices for fear of marrying the wrong person, but her mother has used a little thought about Min Fang, what is the person she picks for Min Fang every time, is she so eager to stuff Min Fang out casually?"
Su Shi talked about the sad things in the past, and his eyes turned red.
"The second sister has promised me that she will take good care of a good family for Minfang, not to seek great wealth and wealth, at least to be pure and thoughtful to protect Minfang, I will never let Minfang marry casually, and be tortured in the future. β
Liu Shen saw that his wife's eyes were red, and tears were about to fall in his eyes, he hurriedly reached out and encircled her into his arms, patted her on the back and said, "Okay, okay, I'm just going to talk to you, if you don't want to, I'll go back to my mother later." β
Su Shi leaned on Liu Shen's shoulder and sobbed lowly.
She knew that if Liu Shen went back to the marriage that the old lady chose for Minfang, she would definitely be scolded, but she couldn't stop him from going, otherwise she would lose Liu Minfang's life. Min Fang can't speak, she is introverted and withdrawn, and now their husband and wife are still alive and can still protect her, if they can't find a good family for her, if they leave in the future, who else can protect her daughter...
Liu Minfang stood outside the door, listening to Su's low sobs from inside, as well as Liu Shen's comforting voice, her eyes were sour.
She opened her mouth to call her father and mother, but she knew she couldn't.
Liu Minfang turned around silently, held the Zijin Mo that she had brought to her room in the palm of her hand, turned around and was about to leave quietly, who knew that before she could make progress, a little girl ran in front of her.
"Miss, Miss is not good, the old lady was taken away by the people of Dali Temple. β
