Chapter 712: Aftermath
Fang Chu held the wine glass, looked at the clear liquid in the glass, and said slowly: "Our family is not as troublesome as you, the rule is to take concubines and spread the branches." Two of my father's concubines were given by my grandmother, and one was brought in from outside. Originally, if they could keep to themselves, my mother would not have paid attention to them. The one who came in from outside, relying on some talent and giving birth to a son, wanted to overpower my mother and cause trouble all day long. She devised a plan to kill two birds with one stone, causing another aunt to slip and blame my mother. I kept an eye on her for a long time, found out about it, pulled her out, and sent her mother and son out. In this matter, although I am a son, my father does not dare to say half a word. When I got married, the aunt wanted to beg my father to come over, but I said no! ”
Guo Daquan asked: "Then your brother is ...... now?"
Fang Chu said: "Manage a business in your ancestral hometown. After all, it's the father's son, so it's impossible to really ignore it. Father would also go to see them, but wouldn't let them come back. ”
Guo Daquan was so engrossed that he forgot to drink and eat.
Fang Chu picked up the wine glass, motioned for him to drink, and said with a smile: "Brother Qin'er is so powerful, it must be a good thing for the Guo family." It's just that you have to be careful in the future. ”
Guo Daquan raised his glass and touched him, and said, "Be careful of what?" I didn't have a bad heart. ”
Fang Chu looked at him and smiled slightly, didn't say more, but thought in his heart: Throwing five thousand taels for a woman, he is afraid that he doesn't even know about himself, in fact, he has already moved his heart to Dong'er, but he has a deep relationship with his sister-in-law, and he is kind, so he doesn't want to make his sister-in-law sad.
After another drink, Fang Chu asked, "How could Big Brother come up with such an idea?" If Liu Hu picked up the silver and hid it and didn't take it out. But it's still the same, isn't the eldest brother lost in vain? ”
Guo Daquan said: "You don't understand this." ”
Fang Chu smiled: "I want to hear about it." ”
Guo Daquan said: "You are a child of a family, of course a few thousand taels of silver are not in your eyes." You won't understand a poor country man. What is it like to suddenly get five thousand taels of silver? ”
Fang Chu was puzzled: "What's the situation?" ”
Guo Daquan sneered: "Insolent! He dared to do what he didn't dare to do, and he dared to think about what he didn't dare to think, he was crazy and forgot his roots, and it was easier to make mistakes at this time. ”
Fang Chu nodded and said, "I understand, this nouveau riche is also." ”
Guo Daquan said: "I thought he would toss for a while, but who knew that he turned his head and accepted the widow as a concubine." People knock on the door, can he still have a good one? ”
Liu Hu threw away his life. This was really unexpected.
Fang Chu originally felt that he was doing this ridiculously, but at this moment, he was a little frightened, and felt that this hand was actually a bit like Xie Yinyue's style.
He asked, "The five thousand taels Liu Hu only bought a house." What else? ”
Guo Daquan said: "I'm also puzzled, the rest of the silver is gone." Was it because of the widow's obsession? I can't say anything about it, and I can't ask if I want to. ”
Fang Chu said: "It's better to leave it alone." Save it and pull it out. ”
After a full meal and wine, the two dispersed.
Fang Chu came out. Black Wind whispered something to him.
Fang Chu turned to the small stone bridge.
A Confucian scholar in his thirties was waiting for him.
"Young Master Fang."
"Mr. Lin."
"Everything in the northwest is according to Young Master Fang's orders. It's already begun. ”
"Oh, but I wonder what happened to the gentleman?"
"The prince asked: With this bit of manpower and looms, the money earned in a year is not enough to cover the ten secret guards trained by His Highness, and it will be until the Year of the Monkey?"
Mr. Lin openly said "Your Highness" and "Secret Guard", and Fang Chu was shocked when he heard it.
On his face, he was only slightly surprised, but he didn't ask in detail, and his performance was just right.
"Please tell the prince and His Highness. Don't rush it. ”
"But the original cotton textile workshops in the northwest were supported by the court forces behind them. We haven't started our business yet, and they're already eyeing up and provoking trouble. ”
"That's exactly what it means. The next step, I said, you write down ......."
Next, Fang Chuyi recounted one by one, and Mr. Lin took notes. Occasionally, he also stopped to ask Fang Chu. After Fang Chu explained it clearly, he wrote it down on paper in detail.
Throughout the dialogue, Fang Chu didn't write a word or give any tokens.

The next day, Guo Daquan filled the hole with silver.
Guo Qin looked at the account and asked, "Didn't Dad say that he would harvest cotton?" ”
Guo Daquan regained his composure, straightened his waist in front of his son, and said with a smile: "That big family was sold to someone else." When they were useless, they returned the money. ”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
He thought to himself, Lao Tzu didn't do anything bad, why should he be controlled by this kid?
Guo Qin looked at his father's back full of doubts, only felt that the silver came too quickly, and it was too neat, if it was really like what his father said, then there should be cotton and silver in the back, how could it be no more, no less, exactly five thousand taels, but it seemed like where it was moved.
If Guo Daquan knew what he was thinking, he would definitely scold again, "It's okay, what are you doing so smart!" ”
On this day, Guo Qin took Guo Jian to Fang's house to see the dumb after school.
Qingmu was walking in the garden with her mother-in-law Yan and Fang Wen, when she saw a daughter-in-law with their little brothers, she was very happy, and hurriedly asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Guo Qin didn't answer, but first pulled his younger brother to salute Yan's family, and said, "I've seen my wife." ”
Yan smiled: "Brother Qin is becoming more and more sensible. ”
Brother Guo Qin saw Fang Wen again, so he spoke to Qing Du.
Dumb asked, "Grandma is here?" ”
She wondered if it was the Wu family who came to the city to let Guo Qin pick her up.
Thinking about it again, it doesn't look like it, Guo Qin is still young, and Guo Dagui is here to pick him up.
Guo Qin held her arm to help her go, and said with a smile: "We miss our aunt, so we came." ”
Yan and Fang Wen both laughed.
Yan said: "Then you two accompany your aunt to talk well and eat here at night." He turned his head and instructed the dumb: "Don't go shopping for too long, be careful that your legs are sore." Take your nephews to sit under the porch. I'll go to the front and take care of something. Wen'er, accompany your sister-in-law, be careful under your feet, don't fall. ”
Fang Wen hurriedly agreed.
The dumb also said: "Mother, you go and get busy." I'm fine. ”
She felt weird and embarrassed, she was pregnant, and her mother-in-law held her like a porcelain person, from eating to dressing, to walking and sleeping, everything was meticulous.
Yan took the maids and sons away.
The dumb and his nephew went back to their yard, and sat in the small living room outside the study, with a square stripe and a maid serving tea and fruit snacks, making room for their aunt and nephew to say something considerate.
Guo Qin sat opposite Qingdu, looked at her stomach and asked, "Auntie, is my brother obedient?" ”
Qingbei stroked his abdomen and smiled, "Obedient." Very well-behaved. ”
Guo Jian was puzzled: "How does my brother know that it is my younger brother?" What if it's my sister? ”
Guo Qin slapped him and said, "I said that if I say it's my brother, I'm my brother!" ”
Why is this baby so blind?
I wonder if the world likes to have sons? (To be continued.) )
