Fan Yu saw his stepmother's demeanor, as if he had been stimulated by something.

He thought about it for a while, and then remembered that when Wang Feng was leaving, he said that the Empress Dowager Liu had already died. Presumably it was the stepmother Granny Li who heard the news and was shocked.

It's just that Fan Yu can't bring it up, otherwise it won't be easy to explain how he learned that his stepmother was thinking about it.

"Mother, what are you thinking?" Fan Yu still opened his mouth and asked: "Why do you have to let Wang Zhu Bo go to the Qin family to propose marriage today, this makes Wang Zhu Bo a little embarrassed." ”

Granny Li gently wiped her face with her sleeve, as if she had wiped away some tears.

"You kid, don't think that being a mother is deliberately embarrassing." Granny Li said with a smile: "The Qin family has been supporting her mother for all these years, and she is still gracious. Letting you marry the Qin family is to repay your kindness. If his Qin family agrees to this, he will not let his family suffer losses in the future. If you don't agree, it can be regarded as a clear deal. ”

Fan Yu thought about it, then shook his head, "The Qin family will definitely not agree, otherwise my mother will not come out of the Qin family and live in that cave." If you really agree to marry that Qin Yu'er to me, I'm afraid you will have to suffer from the idleness of his Qin family, so it's okay to be clear. ”

When Granny Li heard Fan Yu say this, she couldn't help laughing and said: "He Qin Hu is as loyal as my son, and he is just going through the motions, because his mother doesn't like to owe favors, so it's a matter of my heart." By the way, Yu'er, my mother begs you for one thing, can you not do some incense, candles, paper money, my mother wants to pay tribute to one of my old sisters in a few days. ”

Fan Yu was a little strange, but he didn't ask much, "Mother, these little things are naturally not a problem, just leave it to me." Let's talk to mother and son, where is it necessary to be so polite, I will come back later. ”

Stepmother Li asked him to prepare incense, candles, paper money, of course he knew that it was going to be burned for Empress Dowager Liu. But the key is that this Empress Dowager Liu is Granny Li's great enemy. If it weren't for the Empress Dowager Liu's harm, Granny Li would not have been able to fall into this field. Although he knew, Fan Yu couldn't ask more, and when the stepmother was willing to say it, she would naturally understand.

In the afternoon, it was getting late, and Wang Feng came to Fan Yu's house again.

This time Wang Feng had a slightly embarrassed look on his face, and as soon as he saw Fan Yu, he forced out a little smile.

"Little brother, I have already been to the Qin family today. It's just that the Qin family thinks very highly of themselves, and the good relationship between Qin Yu'er and you can't be formed in the end. Wang Feng looked at Fan Yu's face and said with a little emptiness.

Of course, Fan Yu will not make Wang Feng ugly, "Lord Wang is warm-hearted, and he also thinks about the grass people in these things, and I have already received this intention." As for whether it succeeds or fails, how can I blame Lord Wang. ”

The embarrassment on Wang Feng's face was removed a little, and he sighed: "It was also a whim that I thought less, so I thought about saying that Qin Yu'er was your wife." But I didn't expect the Qin family to have such a gateway view. I said to the Qin Hu member at the time, the little brother is witty and agile, and he will definitely be successful in the future. But that Qin Yuan's knowledge is shallow, and he only looks at his background and family property, so he can't do it. ”

Granny Li listened on the sidelines, and then shook her head and said: "Lord Wang is hard, this fact is that the old woman feels sorry for Yu'er, and there are some troubles, but the adults eat the melons." ”

Wang Feng didn't say anything, but he said secretly in his heart, it seems that you, the old lady, also understand, obviously on purpose.

Fan Yu laughed, "Mother doesn't have to blame herself, and Lord Wang doesn't have to be ashamed, today his Qin family looks down on me, and I will let his Qin family not be able to climb high in the future." ”

When he said these things, he just eased the atmosphere and made a round, so as not to embarrass his stepmother and Wang Feng.

In his heart, Fan Yu only hoped that his stepmother-in-law, Granny Li, would restore her status as the queen mother, so that she could take herself back to Bianliang to eat and drink spicy food and be a moth. As for the Qin family or something, who wants to be entangled with their family?

But Fan Yu didn't know that Qin Hu and Qin Yuanwai had just come to Fan Yu's door at this time. The courtyard gate is not far from the hall, and I just heard Fan Yu's words.

Outside of Qin Hu, he still has a little impression of Fan Yu. After all, Fan Yu's father, Fan Sheng, has been a steward in the Qin family for many years, and he has also seen Fan Yu's appearance when he was a child.

When it comes to appearance, Fan Yu is a handsome young man. When it comes to dissatisfaction, Qin Yuanwai also looks down on his family. How can the son of a domestic servant be worthy of the young lady of the master's family?

Wang Feng is the lord of the county, and he specially came to say yes, even if Qin Yuanwai did not agree, he was also a little curious about Fan Yu.

This time, I just wanted to meet Fan Yu and see if this young man was really as good as Wang Zhubo said. If it is meaningful, let him take over Fan Sheng's absence as a steward in his own mansion, which can be regarded as giving the king some face.

As a result, as soon as the person arrived outside the door, before he called the door, he heard Fan Yu's words, and his heart immediately became unhappy.

Unlike the rest of the dynasties, the domestic servants of the Song dynasty were all employment relationships with signed contracts, which were divided into long and short contracts. After the contract is signed, there is no power to determine personal freedom between the parties. If both parties are not satisfied, the contract can be terminated.

Fan Sheng, the father of Fan Yu, was a steward in the Qin family at the beginning, and he signed a long contract with the Qin family. Later, after falling ill, the two parties terminated the contract according to the terms of the contract.

At this time, although Qin Hu heard Fan Yu's words, he couldn't rush in and beat and scold Fan Yu. But it is obviously impossible to let him hold back.

Bang Bang Bang!

Qin Hu knocked on the door of the Fan family, he was panting and banging on the door, which was not small.

Of course, the three people in the room could hear it clearly, and Fan Yu hurriedly came out to open the door.

At first glance, it was Qin Hu, followed by two companions.

Of course, Fan Yu had an impression in his memory, and he arched his hand and said, "Qin Yuanwai, come to me at this time, but is there something?" ”

"Huh." Qin Hu first sneered a few times, and then suppressed the anger in his heart and said slowly: "Little Brother Fan, today the royal lord Bo came to my mansion to ask my granddaughter Yu'er for you." It is said that Brother Fan is clever and intelligent, polite and courteous, and is an outstanding handsome young man. Although I have never been involved in this family business, I also want to meet the people whom the king and lord Bo admire, so I have come to visit. ”

There was nothing wrong with listening to these words, but Fan Yu sensed a trace of anger from the other party.

He smiled disapprerovingly, stretched out his hand and asked: "Don't dare to visit, Qin Yuan is a guest when he comes outside, and he is invited to come in to talk." It's also a coincidence, the king is using tea in the cold house. ”

Qin Yuanwai nodded, and entered the hall of Fan Yu's house with an expressionless face.

Seeing the prince Bo, Qin Hu naturally wanted to greet him warmly, but when he saw Granny Li, he couldn't help but show disgust on his face.

Fan Yu saw this Qin Yuanwai's expression in his eyes, and immediately became dissatisfied. In any case, Granny Li is also her own stepmother, and this Qin member used to drive her stepmother out of the Qin Mansion, but now when she sees the master's house, she still shows this look, which makes people very unaccustomed to it.

Without waiting for Qin Yuanwai to speak, Granny Li opened her mouth first, "Qin Yuanwai, don't come to harm?" Since the old woman left the Qin Mansion, she has not starved to death. Meng Yuer did not give up, recognized me as her stepmother, and now she has no worries about food and clothing. ”

Qin Hu didn't care about the sarcasm in Granny Li's words, but said with a smile: "Your righteous son is a little interesting, and he actually recognizes you, a man with dazzling eyes, as his mother-in-law." Sure enough, people are divided into groups, and things are gathered by likes. Wang Zhu Bo also praised him for how he was, but just now I heard his big words outside the door, saying what made my Qin family unattainable, and he really laughed to death. ”
