The courtyard of the Fang family was quiet, as if something was hidden under this calm, and something was brewing.

The old and young of the Fang family gathered in the main room after eating, and seemed to be very calm and gossiping, in fact, everything they said was forgotten, and they were all scratching their hearts and waiting for the minions in the outer courtyard to report the good news.

And the big and small maids also have no intention of working, gathering in groups of three or five to mutter, this guess that the old man must be released to be the county, and the one who said that the old man can be promoted to a higher level and stay in the capital to bear a fat difference. Everyone is looking forward to following the master to reap some benefits when the time comes, so naturally their eyes outside the gate are even more anxious.

When the masters and servants were waiting for the household to come and greet them, Fang Jie put on a dark green carved silk crane and walked out with Dongzi to open the courtyard door.

Some of the little maids reluctantly bowed down and saluted when they saw it, and some simply bowed their heads and pretended not to see it, and even those slaves who followed the master and the eldest young master out and had some face sneered proudly. Dongzi waved his fist in hatred, but Fang Jie turned a blind eye and walked out of the gate slowly.

On this day, the sun rarely comes out early to go to work, and the houses on both sides of the street are mostly covered by the north wind, and there is a slight feeling of warm spring along the way.

At this time, it was already three poles of the sun, and the pedestrians on the street gradually increased, and the shops had already removed their door panels, and the young men stood enthusiastically at the door to greet the customers, and each of them was smiling as if they were about to bloom.

Fang Jie found a time-honored Yinlou and the shopkeeper to buy a small and delicate carved box, and then carefully put the "treasure book" copied last night into it, and then asked Dongzi to send it to Zhao Fatzi.

The shopkeeper of the silver building was sharp-eyed, seeing that Fang Jie was dressed luxuriously and the accessories were all of the best quality, he thought he was a big customer, so he personally brought the two most exquisite sets of red gold heads in the building and stepped forward to introduce.

Fang Jie casually picked up a red gold hairpin inlaid with beeswax stone and looked at it, and felt that the workmanship was extremely fine, but then he remembered Pucao's temper and put it back again, and said with a gentle smile, "Boss, there are delicate and small silver hairpins in the store, bring them to me to see." ”

The boss was disappointed, and he really didn't know why such a noble son didn't want gold ornaments, but wanted to see silver hairpins. But when doing business, pay attention to harmony and make money, and do not respect clothes and hats, only respect people. He muttered in his heart, but his face didn't show it at all, he smiled as usual, and turned around to find two boxes of delicate silver hairpins.

Fang Jie smiled and picked them up one by one, but he really picked one that he liked. It was a silver hairpin that was polished to a very smooth finish, the hairpin head was wrapped with a clump of grass with silver wire, and a grasshopper squatted on the blade of grass, which was simply vivid, extremely funny and vivid.

He immediately grabbed it in his hand and didn't let it go, and then picked two plum hairpins and asked the shopkeeper to help wrap them together. The shopkeeper still didn't give up, and persuaded with a smile, "This son, the two sets of red gold noodles just now are made by the best master in our building, and they are also the only ones in this capital." You might as well buy it back together, and wait until you marry the woman you like as a dowry, how decent it is. ”

Fang Jie secretly laughed at the shopkeeper's clever tongue, and wanted to say that he didn't know when he would marry, but the exit turned into another sentence, "Then wrap it up." ”

The shopkeeper didn't expect it to be so easy to make a big deal, so he hurriedly beckoned the young man to find two good boxes to decorate. However, Fang Jie was stunned for a long time, then shook his head with a smile, and bought it, who knows when it will be used in the future.

Dongzi ran back from an errand, smiled and approached the master and said, "Childe, the prince of the county wants to send you a message, and there will be excitement in another hour, so don't miss it." ”

Fang Jie's eyes flashed with a bright color, he got up and resigned, and the shopkeeper of the silver building took Dongzi to continue shopping along the street.

The rouge and rose fragrance of the flower Xiangrong, the milk and diamond powder cake of the old Lu Ji store, the rouge goose breast, the eight-color traditional dim sum, the spring, summer, autumn and winter four series of purses of Tianxiu Pavilion, etc., all the delicious and fun things, Fang Jie will buy a lot. In the end, he hung on Dongzi's shoulders and arms, and there was no open space on his arms, and he couldn't move his steps. Seeing that the master had no intention of stopping, Dongzi had to beg with a bitter face, "Childe, it's not early this day, let's go home, don't miss the show." ”

Fang Jie turned his head and saw that he was almost buried by various boxes and packages, he was also amused, and waved his hand, "Then go back, come out tomorrow." ”

Dongzi was overjoyed, and he was about to open the road first, not wanting him to take a step before he could take a step, he was pounced on by a young man in Tsing Yi and took two steps back, he hurriedly protected the object in his arms and scolded, "Who is this who doesn't have long eyes when he walks?" ”

The little guy didn't answer, and shouted at Fang Jie on the side, "Second young master, go back to the house quickly!" There was an accident in the house, and the old man and the eldest young master were arrested and arrested. The old lady was also stunned, and the house was waiting for the second young master to go back to make the decision. ”

Dongzi also recognized this little guy as the most powerful follower by Fang Rui's side at this time, and immediately raised his leg and gave him a kick, and said angrily, "Don't you have to wait for the master to reinstate and follow him to reap the benefits?" The nostrils that were still smug just now are about to soar to the sky, and now your master has an accident, and you know that you will find our son to go back and deal with it. Dream! Let your master eat prison for the rest of your life! ”

This is really feng shui in turn, and it is not certain which one to go to. If the follower knew that there would be today's event, he would not dare to offend the master and servant by taking advantage of his master's power. He endured the pain and begged, "Second Young Master, on weekdays, you are a small dog who looks down on people, don't be like a small one." You just don't want to see our master, you should also think about it, the master has also been arrested, just wait for the second young master to find a way. ”

Fang Jie saw that the passers-by around him had gathered, so he frowned and said, "Let's go, go back to the house first." ”

The little guy was overjoyed immediately, and turned around to lead the way, but Dongzi kicked him on the ass again, and stuffed all the objects in his hand into his arms. Then he raised his head and followed the master to serve, only to feel that the sullen breath that had been held for several days suddenly dissipated.

In the Fang family's old mansion, there was no longer the festive atmosphere before, replaced by panic and despair. Xu is official messenger was not too polite to arrest people, and as soon as he entered the palace gate, on both sides of the wall, a few pots of holly trees were originally placed and smashed to pieces, and the soil was scattered everywhere. The headless flies ran by, and when they got on the soles of their shoes, they became mud prints, and the originally clean and tidy cloister became an abstract painting.

The carved ebony door of the main house was also kicked into a big hole, and the most fond of the novel north wind, rushed into the house to watch the excitement.

Mrs. Fang, who had passed out, had already been awakened by Ma's pinching at this time, beating her chest and crying, "Oh, I'm not alive, my son, my grandson, what kind of evil has been created, a good joy has become a disaster..."

Weiyu and other concubines are all good at fighting for the wind and jealousy on weekdays, but at this time, they have no opinions. None of them stepped forward to help comfort him, and he cried like the sky had fallen. They signed a concubine who sold their bodies like this, and it was good that they were favored on weekdays, but if Master Fang died or ended up in prison, they would be sold to people's teeth.

Ma suddenly lost his husband and son, and his heart was so anxious that he was fried by the fire, and when he saw that a few concubines were so troublesome, he rewarded them with a few slaps and slapped them out of anger, and finally shouted that the maid quickly pulled them to the side room.

Sure enough, as soon as the concubines retreated, the room suddenly became much quieter. Mrs. Fang cried a few times, her face turned red, and she was about to turn her back again, Ma Shi hurriedly patted her chest and shouted to the maid to pour tea.

It was at this most busy time that Fang Jie stepped in. Ma immediately seemed to have seen a savior, and jumped forward and pulled his sleeve and cried, "Brother Guan, go to the government office to inquire, your father and eldest brother have been arrested by the official." They said that the ancient book that your eldest brother bought back was stolen, and that it was obviously bought..."

Fang Jie didn't wait for her to finish, he pulled out his sleeve with a look of disgust, and instead found a random chair to sit down, and coldly instructed the maid, "Pour a pot of hot tea!" ”

The master and servant in the room were stunned when they heard this, and Mrs. Fang sat up with support and scolded, "Your father and brother were arrested and imprisoned, and you still have the heart to drink tea?" Why don't you hurry up and go to the yamen to investigate? ”

Ma Shi was also annoyed, "If you want to drink tea, it's time to drink it in the future, and it's important to take care of your father and eldest brother at this time!" ”

Fang Jie slowly smoothed the placket of his clothes, but when he looked up again, he smiled brightly, "They are in prison, what do they have to do with me?" Why did they delay my tea? ”

Mrs. Fang blocked her chest in one breath, as if it was extremely hard to believe, and scolded with trembling fingers, "You... What are you talking about? That's your father and your brother, why have nothing to do with you? ”

Seeing Fang Jie's face with a mocking look, Ma's heart was beating wildly, for fear that what she had been worried about would happen, so he reluctantly squeezed a smile and said, "That's right, Brother Guan, we are a family, even if there is any disagreement on weekdays, we should work together at this time." ”

Dongzi pursed his lips, glared at the stunned maids, walked to the coffee table, poured a cup of tea and held it to the master with both hands, and then stood behind the master with a proud face.

Fang Jie lowered his head and took a sip of tea, as if he didn't like the taste of the tea very much, frowned and put down the cup, then changed his face and said with a look of surprise, "I've been away from home for a few years, but I don't know that my grandmother and mother have become so sensible.

When my mother was seriously ill and slowly struggled to survive, you didn't treat her as a family. I remember begging my mother to buy ginseng to make soup, and my mother scolded my mother for why she didn't die, which disturbed the peace of the whole family. What was grandmother doing at that time? Oh, I remember, my grandmother was listening to the play, babbling so lively..."

Mrs. Fang and Ma saw him smiling and talking like this, but their eyes were cold, and they couldn't help but shiver together. At this time, even the fool understood that this kid was going to take advantage of today's events to coerce and avenge his mother...

(I still owe five watches!) Haha, come on! ）
