Early the next morning, Zhao Xiu sent someone to drive a carriage to Fang's house to pick up Fang Renzhu. Fang Renzhu arrived soon. Her complexion doesn't seem to be very good, her face is pale, and there is a faint halo under her eyes, thinking that she hasn't rested well at home recently. When Zhao Xiu saw it, he was even more puzzled, what did Fang Huizhu do?

Zhao Xiu arranged in advance for Bihan to ask the Fang family's accompanying people about the news, but the result would not be known until Fang Renzhu returned home. Now that she looked at Fang Renzhu's appearance, she couldn't help it at first: "What's wrong with you lately?" The complexion is really bad, could it be that something difficult at home? ”

Fang Renzhu smiled at her, laughing more ugly than crying: "It's nothing, Zuo is just those miscellaneous things." ”

Where is Zhao Xiu willing to believe: "Don't coax me, you just followed Lingtang to learn housekeeping, and before you really get started, why are you worried like this?" Besides, if she sees her beloved daughter worrying about family affairs and her complexion is so bad, she won't need you to mention it, she will take the initiative to stop you from continuing to spoil your body. You tell me the truth, is there something wrong with Meishan Bofu again, embarrassing your family? If they are really so excessive, they should quit the marriage early, now your sister has not passed the door, they are so snobbish, and in the future, your sister will marry, and that day will be sad, and your family will not be able to help. ”

Fang Renzhu's eyes turned red as he said this, and he couldn't help choking. She held Zhao Xiu's hand tightly: "Sister Zhao, you are an understanding person." I don't understand why my sister continues to be confused! ”

As soon as she cried, she opened the conversation. In fact, Fang Renzhu is just a little girl. When she was at home, in order not to block her mother, she kept her mouth shut about things. Other aunts, aunts and cousins are not suitable conversation partners, and she is not good at discussing with the girls around her, so she has been holding back her stomach for a long time, and she is about to get sick. She trusted Zhao Xiu very much, and she couldn't help but speak at this time.

It turned out that after Fang Sanye received Gao Zhen's reply that day, he directly proposed to Mrs. Fang that the clan would discuss it. The building of Fang Yishan's house expelled from the clan. In fact, there was nothing wrong with his thoughts, Fang Yishan's actions had already hurt the reputation of the Fang clan and expelled him from the family. It is to eradicate a future trouble for the clansmen. As for Fang Yishan's small family, the government has not yet said whether it can be redeemed, but considering the past friendship, even if the person is expelled from the clan. It doesn't mean that they will be left behind. The descendants can still send people to take care of them and redeem their mothers and sons. If they can, they will be sent back to their hometowns and set up other houses and farms outside the clan land, so that their families can live a life without worrying about food and clothing in the future. This account is paid by the princess, which does not need to alarm the clansmen, but also shows the clansmen that even if any of them are unlucky enough to commit a crime, the clan will not abandon their family. Just to earn a good reputation for kindness, why not?

But Mrs. Fang thought about it. Also vetoed this build yì. She didn't like Fang Yishan's family, and she knew that expelling him from the clan would be more conducive to the development of the Fang family, but Fang Chongshan had instructed her before going to office that she would keep Fang Sanye's younger brother no matter what. If Fang Yishan was expelled from the clan because of his participation in the rebellion, what about Fang Sanye? If this decision is made by the Yan Branch, it will naturally damage the fair image of Fang Chongshan, the patriarch; And leaving the matter to the clansmen for public discussion will cause damage to the authority of the descendants within the clan. Mrs. Fang knew in her heart that once the public discussion in the clan decided whether to stay or stay in the first room, in the future, if there were any clansmen who had different intentions, instigated other clansmen to work against the clan, and suppressed the authority of the clan with the results of the public discussion, how should the clan deal with it? In the long run, this approach will do more harm than good. Maybe leaving Fang Yishan's wife and children will have a little bad impact on the family in a short period of time, but Fang Yishan is dead, and the case is closed, when his wife and daughter leave the capital, a year and a half will pass, who will remember him? As long as the emperor still trusts the other party's family, and as long as her husband Fang Chongshan continues to stand firm in his career, every trouble will pass.

Fang Sanye was persuaded by his sister-in-law, and he felt that Gao Zhen was just a building, not an order, and now he went back to the palace to recuperate from his injuries, and was no longer his top boss, so he couldn't do what Gao Zhen said, and the result was not very strict, right? The matter will be put to rest for the time being.

On the other hand, the Fang family didn't make a move for a long time, and the Qiu family of Meishan Bofu urged even tighter. Following Mrs. Meishanbo, the old lady of Meishanbo's mansion also personally sent someone to the Fang family to spread the word, and repeatedly threatened Mrs. Fang with "If you don't marry on time, you will stop the marriage", but she didn't expect it to arouse Mrs. Fang's anger. She felt that the Qiu family's request was completely unreasonable, and the reason why it was so difficult was just to withdraw from the marriage. She wrote a letter to Jining's husband, explaining the cause of the incident, and said to him in the letter: "The Qiu family has already decided to withdraw from the marriage, and if they are reluctant to marry, they are afraid that Hui'er will suffer after marrying, so it is better to take the opportunity to stop the marriage and Hui'er find another good match." It is difficult to find a suitable person in Beijing, so the master can look for it in Jining first, wait for the concubine to bring the children to the rendezvous, and then discuss it carefully. ”

The letter was soon sent to Jining, and once Mrs. Fang had made a decision, she was at ease. She didn't go to the Qiu family to mention anything about the divorce, she just waited, waiting for the moment when the eldest daughter Fang Huizhu did not marry into the Qiu family as scheduled, and the Qiu family changed face. Anyway, the whole capital knows that the eldest girl of the Fang family is now guarding the line, and the deadline is only three months. If the Qiu family wants to withdraw from the marriage for this reason, it will be the Qiu family, and the Fang family and Fang Huizhu's reputation will be affected to the minimum.

But this matter was known to Fang Huizhu. She had a completely different view from her mother and uncle. Although the Meishan Bofu is not prominent in the big families with lords, it is not comparable to ordinary eunuchs. This is already the most ideal home she can find so far. If the Qiu family withdraws from the family, what good relatives can she find? She will be nineteen years old in the next year, she is a real old girl, and her reputation is not too good, those big families looked down on her in the past, and they will not be able to look down on her in the future. If she is going to be a little second, she is unwilling! As long as she doesn't marry a better partner for Bhikshu Huiyou, she will be a failure in the eyes of others! It's a woman who was abandoned by her fiancé! How will she meet people in the future? Her mother also wanted to find her relatives outside Beijing. But she grew up in the capital since she was a child, and she has long been accustomed to the wealth and prosperity here, what will it be like to marry outside Beijing? She didn't want to think about it.

At first, Fang Huizhu just went to cry to her mother. Mrs. Fang had already made a decision, unless Fang Chongshan wrote back to say that she was against it, she would never change her mind, and persuaded Fang Huizhu that with the current attitude of the Qiu family, even if the marriage was completed, the latter would probably suffer in her in-law's family in the future. It's better to take advantage of the fact that you haven't passed the door now and find another good match. Although Mrs. Fang was disappointed in her eldest daughter, she still thought about the child. She said these words for Fang Huizhu's good. It's a pity that Fang Huizhu doesn't understand, but she feels that her mother is for the third uncle. Willing to sacrifice himself.

Fang Huizhu is unbalanced. She used to think that her mother was for her sister. neglected herself because she lost the value of marriage and could not bring any benefits to the family, although she was wronged, she was not incomprehensible. But now, it is clear that it is in the interests of the family to leave Fang Yishan's family, why should my mother insist on going her own way? Fang Sanye has always only dragged down his family, and his parents want to keep him. Can't get enough of it? Couldn't Third Master Fang think about his brother and sister-in-law? Besides, now he just wants to leave Fang Yishan from the clan, and he doesn't say that he wants to chase Fang Sanye. If you are worried that your reputation will be damaged by being said to be good and avoid harm, then it is up to the clansmen to make this decision. Why wouldn't my mother even agree to such a thing?

Fang Huizhu was aggrieved and anxious, worried that if things dragged on, her marriage would really come to naught. At this time, the second son of Meishan Bofu, her fiancé Qiu Huiyou, didn't know how to persuade a twelve or thirteen-year-old cousin of the Fang family's side branch to bring a letter to Fang Huizhu and ask to meet in private.

"She didn't say yes, did she?!" When Zhao Xiu heard this, he couldn't help but ask, "Qiu Huiyou asked her to meet, did she want to talk about marriage?" But that's too reckless! Even if he has something to say, if he can ask someone to bring the letter into your house, can't he make it clear in the letter? Why do you have to meet? Or call a confidant to go to the appointment on her behalf! She knew in her heart that the Fang family was a little different from the Zhao family in Jiannan Houfu, and the family education was probably stricter, if Fang Huizhu really met with her fiancé in private, it would definitely attract gossip, in case this marriage really didn't work out, how would she get married? Fang Huizhu: What's the trouble? Although she and Qiu Huiyou have a marriage contract, they are almost strangers, so what good will it do to her to meet them rashly?

Fang Renzhu was about to cry at this time: "My sister has been confused for a long time, where can I think of this?" The two girls around her, Yunqu and Yuege, were chased as early as years ago. Now the Yanluo and Fengge who are waiting are all given by her mother, and she can't trust it. Yan Luo knew about the letter, so she persuaded her not to go, and was willing to go to the appointment for her. The elder sister only felt that Yan Luo had a different intention, and rejected it, and forbade her to tell her mother, and then went to tell her that she wanted to go to the cousin's house who helped deliver the letter, and to visit his mother and sister. Her marriage changed, she was worried all day long, and her mother was also very distressed, so she agreed without much thought. My sister didn't bring a girl, so that's it...... went to the cousin's house, and then took the carriage he arranged, went out to a nearby teahouse, and met Qiu Huiyou alone. ”

Zhao Xiu was dumbfounded when she heard this, needless to say, Fang Huizhu's trip must have been exposed, and it is rumored that Mrs. Fang was angry and grounded her eldest daughter, probably because of this? After all, the daughter who has not left the cabinet goes out to meet with a foreign man in private...... Even if the two parties are unmarried couples, this kind of thing is not very appropriate, not to mention that Fang Huizhu still went against her mother's wishes.

Zhao Xiu sighed and asked again, "What about later?" What did your sister say when she met Qiu Huiyou? Have you ever bumped into someone? But with a cousin escort, it wouldn't be too bad to think about, right? ”

Fang Renzhu shook his head with tears in his eyes: "They met in the private room, and that cousin was guarding the door, and I don't know what they said inside. Half an hour later, my sister came out. When I returned to my cousin's house, I sat down for a while as if nothing had happened, had a cup of tea, and went home. ”

Zhao Xiu blinked: "What about later?" How did you know about this? Could it be that cousin who said it? (To be continued......)
