Chapter 657: Family Affairs

Xu Dafu couldn't help but glance at Fang Ruohua sadlyβ€”it should really be kept secret.

It's just that he can't say that.

Although Fang Ruohua is the daughter-in-law of the Xu family, if it is a secret of the master, she must keep it secret, and even the Xu family should not covet it.

Fang Ruohua smiled, shipbuilding is not a slap-sized gadget, she has the heart to keep it secret, but she can't keep it at all.

She couldn't do anything like building a shipyard alone, unless she paid a lot of money and hired a lot of puppets.

But that's going to kill her.

And there really isn't enough time.

Besides, she didn't plan to contribute a lethal weapon to let people know at this time.

Shipbuilding, an industry that requires a solid industrial foundation, is not harmful to be exposed.

Besides, what kind of leak is this.

She just gave the ship model she built to these people to dismantle at will, and if she didn't systematically learn a series of knowledge, they couldn't put it back when they dismantled it.

Taking out such a tempting good thing, being able to unite a group of people around you, at least in terms of safety will be more guaranteed.

If you just rely on the power of the Xu family to do this, not to mention the difficulties, the Xu family and the king of Nan'an County have been too close in the past, and with the shipyard, they will definitely be more closely intertwined.

But now it's different.

Among the people who came to the Xu family as guests today, there were people from the king of Nan'an County, and a few people with extremely strange identities.

Recently, the sailors in the live broadcast room have become obsessed with playing the game of espionage, and they have established archives in a similar way when they see the important people who are monitoring Nan'an City.

Today's Nan'an City, from top to bottom, I don't know how many nails of the imperial court have been buried. These nails are used well, and it is estimated that they are also a big killer.

The Xu family was very busy up and down, but Fang Ruohua was idle.

Chunyu saw that her housewife was bored, and couldn't help but propose: "Grandma, do you want to go and see your in-laws?" ”

Fang Ruohua was stunned, but did not hesitate, and nodded: "Go and see." ”

As soon as she said that she was going back to her parents' house, Dou Li hurriedly packed up a cart of various gifts, all of which were very practical things.

Fang Ruohua didn't shirk either, and took Xiao Ruige out with him, so he was not in a hurry to leave, and slowly drove the carriage all the way.

Xu's house is three streets away from the tofu factory, although it is not too far, but the road is indeed a little bumpy through the streets and alleys.

After walking for almost half an hour, I finally arrived at the slightly dilapidated gate of the tofu factory.

Fang Ruohua pushed the car door, and before he got out of the car, he saw a swish inside, and threw out a particularly large rice scooping spoon.

Chunyu was startled and patted his chest carefully.

Fang Ruohua was stunned, looked up, and saw that Fang Erwa, the younger brother of the original owner, rolled out of the door with a crawl, knocked it down, and ate a mouthful of dirt.

Many neighbors were taken aback and came over to see the excitement.

Fang Erwa's face turned red, gasping for breath, with several wounds on her face, and the corners of her forehead were blue, looking a little lost and depressed.

"You bastard, bastard, you still have the face to come back! Our family's foundation has been ruined by you, what do you think you are, just a kid who sells tofu, and you also learn from others to gamble and prostitute, do you really think that your sister married the richest man, and you have become the son of a big family, with Wanguan family assets? ”

As he spoke, the old man from the tofu workshop strode out, still carrying a kitchen knife in his hand, and asked angrily, "You say, where did you spend all the money?" ”

Fang Erwa lowered her head and kept silent, seeing that her father's chest was rising and falling in anger, as if she was about to faint, and her two heads fell down with a bang.

"I'll use the silver to redeem the fish lady and spend it all, but I will pay for it, I will pay for it!"

Old Fang's mind rose, and he was furious: "I'll kill you little rabbit cub, you pay, what do you pay!" ”

Seeing that the old man Fang pounced down suddenly.

Chunyu was startled: "Ah! ”

Old man Fang was obviously really angry, he loved his little son the most on weekdays, but he didn't care about anything at this time, and slashed at his son with a knife.

Fang Erwa raised her head and closed her eyes, gritting her teeth and not moving.

Seeing that Old Man Fang's knife was really about to slash his son.

The neighbors on the left and right were shocked.

Although the kitchen knife is not very sharp, it can be cut on a person, and if he does not die, he will be seriously injured.

Fang Ruohua was speechless.

She is obviously sick and weak now.

But he still couldn't see death without help, leaning on the car window, and flicked the embroidery needle at Chunyu's hand.

The flying needle just pierced the acupoint of the old man's right hand, his hand stiffened, unconsciously hung down, and the kitchen knife fell to the ground.

The neighbors on the left and right were quick-eyed, kicked the kitchen knife aside, rushed over to support the old man Fang, and whispered comfort: "Erwa did something wrong, you can scold him a few words, fourteen-year-old child, where is it worth making such a big move." ”

"Fourteen? I think he's better than my fifty. ”

Old man Fang was also angry when he made a move just now, and he calmed down at this time, and he was a little afraid.

He is indeed about to go crazy with anger, but the pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses with a son and a daughter are obtained by him in middle age, and he can be described as an old man, especially his son, who usually loves him very much.

Old man Fang even cut down on food and clothing for the second child to study.

How much love you can see? Even if his son did something very wrong, he couldn't really kill his son.

If it weren't for this son, when the Xu family chose a concubine in the second room, he might not be willing to let his daughter go anyway.

Speaking of which, fortunately, the old lady of the Xu family intervened sideways, and she was stunned to let Xu Liuye marry the original owner seriously, which reduced Fang Ruohua's troubles a lot.

Although it is naturally impossible for her to take her marriage with Xu Liuye seriously, since the cheap husband is not at home at all, it is okay to stay in the Xu family for a while before he has a complete foothold.

But if she came, she really became the concubine of the second master of the Xu family......

Fang Ruohua felt that the Xu family should be grateful to the old lady Chen Biyun.

If it weren't for Chen Biyun's sideways insertion, changing the identity of the original owner, and letting Fang Ruohua be this concubine, the Xu family would probably really have a restless house, a mess, maybe they don't have to wait for half a year, and they would have fallen to the point where their wealth was scattered and people could not be happy.

Chunyu helped Fang Ruohua, got off the carriage, and laughed softly: "Daddy, if you have anything to say, don't disturb the neighbors." ”

Old man Fang sighed, the whole person seemed to be several years older, and his whole body was also rickety.

didn't look at his son, he couldn't help but hold his daughter's hand, and burst into tears: "Dad is old, and he is working so hard to make a hard-earned money, isn't it just for you and your brother, your brother he, him...... I actually stole the title deed of the tofu factory and went out to gamble! ”

Speaking of this, Old Man Fang's heart was full of anger, and he coughed loudly against his chest, "Is the title deed yours?" It was given by the Xu family to make your sister's face? ”

At the beginning, the Xu family politely sent the title deed to him, and the words were very beautiful, but after the old man Fang took it, he still muttered in his heart, thinking that this was because the Xu family felt that the Fang family's family history could not be seen, so it was better to hold on to the subsidy and make his daughter's face not so ugly.

Old man Fang called Erwa at that time and told him to study hard, take the exam, Jinshi or something, he didn't dare to think that as long as Erwa could take the exam before he came out, their family would be a change of lintel.

Xiucai's sister married a businessman's concubine as his wife, which is barely a good match, even if the Xu family is the richest man in Nan'an City.

The eldest sister can also be less angry in the Xu family.

Don't look at Old Man Fang, he even did the thing of letting his daughter be a concubine, but as soon as his daughter's identity changed, he had to make face again, and he paid more attention to this girl.

Fang Ruohua helped Old Man Fang sit down, and stretched out his hand to call Fang Erwa to his eyes.

"Erwa, what's going on?"

Fang Erwa's face finally showed a little shame, and she looked up at her father.

Fang Ruohua frowned: "Say it." ”

"Aunt Ye asked Old Dog Sun to give it to ...... Lost to Jin Er Mazi, I, I want to win her back. ”

Before he finished speaking, Fang Er couldn't help but cry and convulsed, "Dad, I hurt Yegu, I promised to marry her, but no, I didn't dare to marry, I hurt Yegu!" ”

He cried so much that he was sticking to the blue-black floor, his shoulders twitched, and seeing his appearance, Old Man Fang was even more angry: "Are you complaining about your father and me?" Yegu is a thousand-person rider with 10,000 pillows, she is a pariah, good and lowly and unmarried, do you understand? ”

Old Man Fang beat his chest hard, "If you really dare to let her enter the door of Fang's house, I will immediately crash to death on the wall." ”

Fang Ruohua raised his hand and tapped his temple.

The original owner's memory has the person Yegu.

Her name is He Yegu, her home is on the Nanhe River, the Nanhe River passes through Nan'an City, and flows into the sea, so to speak, the entire Nan'an City is built by the Nanhe River, and the riverside is naturally prosperous.

The He family is a Tan household, living on the boat for generations, except for fishing, there is no other livelihood, because He Yegu loves to eat tofu, often will catch two fish, go to the Fang family tofu workshop to exchange tofu to eat.

Yegu is three years older than Erwa, she is beautiful, she is also gentle and amiable, and after a lot of contacts, Yegu and Fang Erwa became more and more familiar, and gradually had feelings.

Later, He Yegu's father was seriously ill, so she and her mother became a boat prostitute to make money to treat her father.

There are many flower boats on the South River, and Miao Ling's daughter's family sits on the boat to solicit guests, which is a prostitute to put it bluntly.

Most of the people living on the river are in charge of this business, and He Yegu is no exception in the end.

Yegu worked as a boat prostitute for a year, and took all the money to treat her father's illness, but Father He still died of illness, and after that, her mother stopped letting her pick up customers, and hurriedly married her to Sun Ergou, who was also a Tanhu.

In fact, most of the girls on the boat have such fate, this is still a good fate, and if they are replaced with a bad fate, they will wither with the Nanhe River if they can't get married.

Fang Erwa cried for a long time, raised her head, and said softly: "If Aunt Ye is doing well, I don't think about her anymore, but Sun Ergou is not a good thing, he is a bad gambler, and he actually used his mother-in-law as a bargaining chip and lost her to those villains on the gambling boat." ”

"How can I leave her alone?"

So, Fang Erwa gritted her teeth and went to gamble, wanting to win back the night aunt, so she did not hesitate to take away the family's title deed.

There was no way, most of the money that Old Man Fang had accumulated was spent on the bundles he handed over to Fang Erwa.

There is the only old lifter in Nan'an City who accepts students, since it is a lifter, it must be better than Xiucai, of course, the fee is also high.

The old man just didn't want to leave his hometown, so he went back to Nan'an City to take root, teaching students purely to make a living, and naturally collected a lot of money.

Old man Fang worked desperately from morning to night every day, and all the money he earned filled the bottomless pit of his son's study, and he couldn't turn over a few copper plates at home, but the store was the most valuable.

Fang Ruohua saw that this cheap father was so angry that he almost fainted, Fang Erwa was a child, making a bitter and hateful appearance, gritting his teeth, not letting go of his mouth to make amends, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart, and shook his head: "Then did you win back the night aunt?" ”

Fang Erwa closed her eyes, and the expression on her face was even more desperate.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ No. ”

Not only did he lose his store, but he still couldn't escape the tiger's mouth.

Old man Fang raised his hand and slapped him, hitting Fang Erwa's face red and swollen, Fang Ruohua thought about it, but still didn't stop it.

When a father teaches his son, let him teach him.

It wasn't until Old Man Fang had beaten and scolded that the anger came out, and the atmosphere in the room was more relaxed, but it was even more weird.

Fang Ruohua glanced at the silent Fang Erwa.

These two siblings don't look very similar.

Fang Ruohua's eyebrows and eyes are beautiful, although they are not stunning, but they are also very good-looking, maybe compared with the young lady raised by the rich and noble, it is very inconspicuous, but it can be regarded as a good appearance in the market.

Fang Erwa is more ordinary. The eyes are a little small, the skin is black, the hair is slightly yellow and not dense, the lips appear thicker, and the bridge of the nose is a little collapsed, which is not a big problem, and it becomes an ordinary and honest appearance when combined.

He looks more like his father.

Old man Fang had a cold face and said softly: "Eldest sister, the tofu shop let this unfilial son lose, this was originally yours, not his, let your brother write an IOU to you, he must compensate." ”

"Erwa, I am your father, and if you harm me, I will be harmed, but there is no reason for you, who is a younger brother, to take advantage of your married sister."

Fang Erwa was stunned for a moment, her face finally showed strong guilt, she lowered her head, gritted her teeth and said, "I, I ......"

He wanted to say that he would definitely return it to his sister, but he probably understood that this matter was difficult, very difficult.

Although the faΓ§ade of the tofu shop is not particularly large, the location is not bad, and it is located on the bustling Qingyun Street in Nan'an City.

Most of the people living around are middle-class families, including scholars, merchants, and petty officials in the yamen.

The transportation is convenient, and it is very close to the South River.

Land prices are naturally on the high side.

The Xu family bought the tofu shop in one go, as well as the two nearby stores, adding up to eight hundred and twenty taels of silver.

This amount of money, in the eyes of the richest man in Nan'an City, is not worth a few clothes for his own women, but when it is placed outside, it is a lot of wealth.

When Old Man Fang rented a shop, he only paid four and a half of the rent a month.

More than 800 taels of white silver, Old Man Fang didn't even dare to think about it before, he was afraid that he would never see so much money in his life, but now let the bastard kid lose it all in one go, he really even had the heart to die.

But it's even more scary......

Or the relationship between family members broke down, and sisters and brothers became enemies.

Even if the relationship between sister and brother does not lead to grudges, but relying on the eldest sister, the family business that came to the future was ruined, so that the second baby was ruined, can the eldest sister not be angry?

Not to mention, the second baby is still mixed up with the night aunt.
