The next day, Fang Fei stared at a note sent in with the delivery note, unable to take his eyes off it for a long time.

The white rice paper, the content of the book is concise and clear: Foolish people spread evil words on the other side, ruined the reputation, and made the younger brother suffer from rumors.

The knuckles of the fingers pinched on the edge of the rice paper turned white, gradually tightened, and with a 'click', the rice paper split in two.

Zhou's mother, who was doing needlework outside the study, was startled, hurriedly put down the needlework in her hand, rushed into the house in a hurry, and said in amazement: "Mrs. Tai, what's wrong?" ”

Fang Fei, who was lying behind the bookcase, raised his head, his eyes brightened, "Go to the ancestor to spread the word, I want to go to Fangjia Town." ”

She already has a pair of big apricot eyes, and she always half-hangs her eyelids on weekdays, looking gentle as a cat.

Mother Zhou's heart trembled, she lowered her head, didn't ask more, and after answering the 'yes', she hurriedly arranged for someone to prepare to go out, and went to the ancestor to reply again.

At this moment, the second lady shook the fan and arrived uninvited.

"Mother, are you going to the other side?"

As soon as the second lady entered the courtyard, she saw Fang Fei coming out of the study, wearing a light white soft silk cloak on her shoulders, walking quickly, the strong wind raised the corners of her skirt, and her posture was heroic.

Fang Fei paused, the hand hidden under the cloak suddenly clenched the bead chain in his hand, looked at the second lady fixedly, and said tepidly: "The second lady has hands and eyes all over the sky, since she knows my every move well, why ask knowingly." ”

didn't expect her to be difficult, the second lady choked up, and then shouted wronged, "Mother." How can I have that ability! I heard about the other side of the river early in the morning, so I came to tell you that since you already know, it would be better if I didn't come here. I'm kind, too, don't think about it. ”

The second lady also knew about the other side, and Fang Fei would definitely be the first to doubt herself. That's why I came early in the morning to clarify.

Deal with people like Tian. If she didn't find someone to release those gossips, how could the Tian family compromise so easily! But the problem is, her people haven't done it yet. Fangjia Village has already spread the word!

This made the second lady really surprised, but it was a matter of her own benefit, so she didn't delve into it until early this morning. After someone told her about the town, the second lady was shocked to realize that something was wrong. If you don't come to Fang Fei's side to clarify earlier, the town will deal with Fang Pei's matter, and she will be determined by this black cauldron!

Therefore, he rushed over early in the morning, planning to find Fang Fei to explain it clearly.

The sun is rising. There was a drifting cloud in the sky, and the rising sun was blocked behind the clouds, staining the clouds orange-red. A faint light shone through the clouds and shone on Fang Fei's body. A faint shadow dragged out of the ground behind him.

In the morning breeze, a strand of hair scattered from the corner of her forehead danced lightly in the wind, standing on the arched bridge in front of the door of the study, condescendingly, looking at the second lady with a squinting demeanor, pursing her lips tightly, and her eyes were cold.

Such a long silence made layers of cold sweat appear on the second lady's forehead, she swallowed her saliva with difficulty, and said: "Mother, I will tell you the truth, I have been calculated by someone for these things that have happened recently." ”

After speaking, the second lady glanced left and right, saw that there was no one walking around, and said: "When I went to the other side yesterday, I did have the idea of deliberately revealing the tone of the people to force the Tian family to compromise, but I dare to swear with my conscience that as soon as the person I instructed arrived at the entrance of the village, he already heard the people in the village talking about it. I was still thinking about who did me a big favor, but when I heard about Fangjia Town this morning, I suddenly realized that it was not someone else who did me a big favor, but I carried the black pot for him! ”

Fang Fei stood on the arched bridge, pursed his lips, didn't say a word, just looked at the second lady quietly.

In the sky, in a moment's effort, the sun has torn through the clouds, red, lazily hanging in the eastern sky, sprinkling thousands of rays of light.

Mother Zhou hurried over, bowed to the second lady, and then stepped on the arched bridge, and said to the other party: "Madam, everything is arranged, the ancestor has also gone to say, you can leave at any time." ”

Fang Fei took a long breath, walked down the arched bridge without squinting, and when he passed by the second lady, he lightly opened his lips and spit out these words: "You'd better ask God to bless you for telling the truth." ”

In the morning light, the second lady's body trembled, and she shivered involuntarily.

She is deliberately approaching Fang Fei now, in the final analysis, it is still for the second room. In the second master's life, if he loses, he loses on his body, and officials who are more incompetent and mediocre than him abound, but people are still rising, that is, the second master, who has been in the position of county commander for half his life.

In the early years, the second lady didn't realize this, and even when the ancestor returned to her ancestral home with the big house, she openly and secretly made a stumbling block with the ancestor in charge.

Now, the ancestor is over 90 years old, and he is about to die, how many years can he live? As soon as she passed away, Fang Fei became the person with the highest rank in the Zhao family, as long as Fang Fei recognized the second master, the Zhao family's connections would be able to play a role, and the second master would not stay in this town for the rest of his life as a county magistrate.

The second lady bit her lip and looked at Fang Fei's distant back in a daze, until her figure disappeared from sight, then she closed her eyes and instructed her henchman beside her: "Go and check for me carefully, who deliberately let the wind go about yesterday." ”

Crossing the Luo River, Fang Fei went straight to Fangjia Town.

Fang Geng bought a small three-entry courtyard a few years ago, not far from the head of Fangjia Town, compared to the hustle and bustle of the central part of the town, it looked much cleaner. The original intention of buying the yard was to pick up Fang Fei's sister and brother to live in the town, but Fang Fei refused, firstly, because he was afraid that the Tian family would suspect the origin of the money to buy the yard, and secondly, he wanted to repay the kindness of the neighbors who sent charcoal in the snow back then.

Since Fang Fei got married, Fang Pei has brought his mother-in-law who takes care of his daily life and three meals to live here, so that it is convenient to go to and from school. Fang Geng used to live in the shop often and rarely came back, but after Fang Pei moved in, he often came over in his spare time.

As soon as he entered the town, Fang Fei instructed: "Mother Zhou, you take someone to inquire about where the gossip in the town comes from, and if you inquire clearly, you will wait for me at the gate of the courtyard under the old locust tree at the entrance of the street." ”

When he spoke, Fang Fei's expression was solemn, and his face was cold, as if he had just crossed over from the middle of winter, and his face was covered with a layer of hoarfrost, giving birth to an invisible sense of oppression, which made people dare not say a word to her.

Mother Zhou glanced at her carefully, answered 'yes', and walked away with someone.

Fang Fei walked to the green tile courtyard under the old locust tree and knocked on the gate outside the courtyard wall.

"Who?" Someone in the courtyard asked.

"Uncle Geng, it's me." This voice was particularly familiar, Fang Fei lowered his voice, leaned forward slightly, and replied through the crack in the door.

A series of hurried footsteps sounded behind the door, and after a while, the door with the paint peeling off was opened, Fang Geng swept around from the crack in the door, and after Fang Fei entered the courtyard, he quickly closed the courtyard door and pulled the door bolt.

"Big girl, you're here alone?" Fang Geng asked while leading the way.

The relationship between him and the master and servant of the Fang family, except for Fang Fei, no one knows about it, and the Fang Geng that everyone knows is a distant relative of the Fang family, not a servant of the Fang family.

Fang Geng was also very careful when he came here, he always took the back door, he didn't dare to go through the front door, and no one knew that this was the courtyard he bought.

"No, the people of the Zhao family were sent by me to inquire about the news, Uncle Geng, where is Ah Pei?" Fang Fei took off the hood covering his head and followed Fang Geng into the main hall.

"Big girl, go this way." Fang Geng led her through the main hall and walked to the wing room in the backyard, saying as she walked: "When I came back yesterday afternoon, I saw that I was locked in the house, I refused to open the door no matter how I persuaded her, I really couldn't do it, so I bothered the big girl, you came over to run this trip......"

While talking, the two of them had already walked through the back hall and came to the wing where Fang Pei lived.

"Uncle Geng, don't say anything about being tired or not, if you want to say it, it should be our sister and brother who say it, our Fang family owes you too much." Fang Fei pursed his lips and looked at Fang Geng, his gratitude overflowing.

Over the years, if it weren't for Fang Geng's single-minded care of the Fang family, let alone their sisters and brothers settling down in the local area and living and working in peace and contentment, I am afraid they would not even be able to guarantee food and clothing.

At such a critical juncture back then, Fang Fei handed over the few remaining belongings to Fang Geng, and asked him to go to the town to do some small business to make a living, so as not to sit on the mountain and eat empty, and after giving out the things, Fang Fei remembered that Fang Geng was not from the Fang family after all! If he took his belongings and flew away, she wouldn't dare to think about the next thing......

Fortunately, Fang Geng did not fly away, but chose to take root in the town, and sent the silver he earned back to Fang Fei in a steady stream, and never left a cent for himself...... Over the years, she has long regarded Fang Geng as a relative.

In a short sentence, Fang Geng Lao burst into tears, smiled honestly, rubbed his hands and said: "Big girl, don't say anything you owe or not, if it wasn't for the old lady who saved my life, where would there be today, let's go and see Young Master Pei first, I'll go outside and stare at it." ”

Fang Fei nodded, turned around and stepped forward, knocking on the door of Fang Pei's room.

"Ah Pei, open the door, it's my sister."

As soon as Fang Pei in the room heard Fang Fei's voice, he ran down from the bed barefoot, pulled off the deadbolt and opened the door, and plunged into Fang Fei's arms, holding her slender waist with both hands.

Fang Fei closed his eyes, bit his lower lip lightly, hugged his brother's thin body with both hands, and said after half a sound: "Ah Pei, do you think that your sister has embarrassed you and made you feel wronged?" ”

Fang Pei shook his head violently, biting his lip and not speaking.

Fang Fei raised his hand to cover the top of his head, looked far away, and sighed: "Ah Pei, my sister once dreamed that she was dead, thinking that it would be a relief, but my sister saw that you were alone, bullied, and framed, but my sister couldn't do anything...... At that moment, my sister swore to protect you well, but if you feel that it is an insult to you that your sister is alive, my sister ......" (To be continued) R655
