Chapter 146: Falling Ill
Xuzhou Fangjia
The lilac trees in the yard are more than three meters high, standing facing south, with thick shade like a cover, vigorous and beautiful.

The clusters of lilac flowers bloom gracefully and quietly, like a lilac cloud, exuding a refreshing fragrance.
Mrs. Fang changed into home clothes, sat on the soft couch, took a few sips of the dragon well before the rain, put down the teacup, and sighed comfortably: "Oh, it's still comfortable at home!" β
Mother Du took the beauty hammer and knocked her legs for her, and joked with a smile: "If the old lady hears this, she will have to cover her head and cry, and she will have to reflect while crying, where is the old lady dissatisfied." β
Old Madam Fang glanced at her and scolded with a smile: "What kind of ecstasy soup did this big girl pour into you to let you speak for her like this." I just said casually, you don't give up. β
"The eldest aunt and grandmother didn't pour any ecstasy soup on the slave maid, the slave and maid just said a fair word for the aunt and aunt." Mother Du has been with the old lady for many years, and she knows the old lady's temper very well, and she is making fun of the old lady and making the old man happy.
"Hmph, you can talk." Old Madam Fang snorted coldly in a feigned anger, but her eyes were full of smiles.
"Ah, this is a greeting card from the Zhou family, is Lan Xin married?" Fang Ning sat on the side fiddling with the posts accumulated by the gatekeeper during this time, and exclaimed when she saw a greeting card from the Zhou family.
"Oh? When we left, the wedding date of the two families had not yet been decided, so why did we get married in a hurry? Old Madam Fang turned her head and asked in surprise. Mother Du couldn't help but lighten the movements in her hand, and looked at the wedding card in Fang Ning's hand suspiciously.
Fang Ning opened the wedding card, couldn't help frowning, and said in surprise: "This wedding card belongs to the third girl of the Zhou family and the eldest young master of the Rong family. Isn't it Lan Xin who is married to the eldest young master of the Rong family? β
"Show me." Old man Fang stretched out his hand to take the greeting card, frowning as he looked at it, "What's going on between the Zhou family and the Rong family this time?" Let's talk about it, what is going on between the Zhou family and the Rong family? What about the eldest girl of the Zhou family? The last sentence was for Mother Xu, she was another housekeeper mother in Mrs. Fang's yard, and this time she did not follow Mrs. Fang to Aunt Pingzhou's grandmother, but stayed in the house to be a town.
Mother Xu told the Zhou family about the Zhou family one by one, "On the day γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» got married, the wife of the Rong family invited the second lady of our family to be a happy person. β
"Was Lan Xin really burned to death by the fire?" Fang Ning asked with red eyes, although she had only been in contact with it a few times, she still liked that smart and beautiful girl very much.
"This old slave can't say it well." Mother Xu shook her head and said, "The rumors outside are all spread like that, and the other old slaves don't know much." "The main reason is that when Mrs. Fang was leaving, she didn't explain much about the Zhou family and the eldest girl of the Zhou family, so she didn't bother to inquire.
"Old lady, the second lady has come to greet you." The little maid stood outside the door and reported.
"Hmph, it's just the right time for her to come." Old Madam Fang snorted, unable to hear joy and anger. Under the signal of the old lady, Du's mother put away the beauty hammer in her hand, lowered her eyelids, and stood silently to the side, thinking that the transparent child was buried in the fire like this, and she sighed in her heart.
The little maid lifted the beaded curtain, and the second lady walked in with her waist twisted, saluted and said, "The daughter-in-law thought that the old lady should get up, so she came over to greet you." He took the little girl's tea, took a sip, and said with a smile, "It's still good to have tea in the old lady's room." β
"Have you gone to the Rong family to be a Quanfu person?" The old lady asked straight to the point, with no joy or anger on her face.
The second lady paused for tea, glanced at Mother Xu, who was standing respectfully aside, and said with a smile: "Yes! When Mrs. Rongda came to invite me, I hesitated! But thinking that the old lady also had the intention of promoting the Zhou family, and now that the Zhou family and the Rong family have become in-laws, I agreed to push the boat down. β
"Carry the Zhou family? What the hell do you think? Over the years, when have we walked around with the Zhou family? Old Madam Fang asked with a frown, almost saying that she had no brains.
"That's what the old lady said." The second lady smiled and said, "In the past few years, the old lady has only been the eldest girl of the Zhou family. But if she doesn't have the Zhou family behind her, she may not be able to enter your eyes, otherwise, γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» "Otherwise, when I am in a bad mood, I will squeeze her, and you won't be able to turn a blind eye." Looking at the old lady's sinking face, the second lady sneered, "If it weren't for the old lady's support, with a portal like the Zhou family, how could you get the blue eyes of Lord Qinchalu?" β
Old Madam Fang stared at the second lady speechlessly, she couldn't imagine that someone who is usually so stupid would have such a mouthful today, and she couldn't refute it, because what she said was the truth. Maybe that's what people out there think, right? Old Madam Fang groaned.
"Second aunt, what about Lan Xin? Lan Xin was like thatγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» just like thatγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» what did the people of the Zhou family say? Fang Ning asked anxiously.
The second lady frowned impatiently, and when she saw that the old lady also looked over, she put down her frowning brows, put away the impatience on her face, and said softly: "I don't know this, the people of the Zhou family said this, and the people in Xuzhou City also passed it on like this." I don't want to ask about it, do I? β
Fang Ning bit her lip tightly and lowered her eyes in disappointment.
"Are people really gone?" In the study, Old Lady Fang asked the steward, frowning, unable to tell what it was like in his heart.
"That's what the people of the Zhou family said." The steward bowed and replied, "However, as far as the old slave knows, the fire in the Zhou family was man-made, and the eldest girl of the Zhou family is fine. Now he has left the city and left Xuzhou. "Although Old Lady Fang is a leader, the Fang family's power is still there. At the very least, any disturbance in Xuzhou City cannot be hidden from the Fang family.
Old Lady Fang leaned back on the couch and breathed a long sigh of relief, staring at the green leaves swaying in the wind outside the window with complicated eyes.
"Sir." The steward called out hesitantly. "If you have something to say, say it." Old Lady Fang sighed.
"The old slave heard a report that Lu Qiu in the post house once bought a few servant women who were sent by the Zhou family from Ren Yazi."
"Hmm." Old Man Fang nodded and said he understood. Exhausted, he closed his eyes, and in a daze, a flash of fire appeared in front of him. There were many people in the fire, with their eyes closed, as if they were asleep, and let the tongue of fire swallow them, and the word "jade house" slowly turned to ashes in the fire.
"Old lady, old lady, wake up!" The personal servant called anxiously, so anxious that tears came out.
Old Lady Fang fell ill, and the entire Fang family suddenly turned on their backs.
