Chapter IX

Luo Ning and Qian'er looked at Fan Xiang's movements in a daze, and it wasn't until this time that the two of them understood that this was the bath water for the two of them, Luo Ning and Qian'er couldn't help but laugh in their hearts, but they were also a little moved in their hearts, after the two of them finished washing, Qian'er opened the door, originally planning to pour out the water by herself, but what she didn't expect was that Fan Xiang and Fan He walked in again or carried out a wooden bucket for each person, and at this time Fan Lei entered Luo Ning's house, He tiptoed a basket on Luo Ning's table and ran out.

Luo Ning and Qian'er lifted the basket covered with a curtain, and inside were a few wild fruits, it seemed that the three brothers deliberately used it to please their little cousin but didn't know how to express it, Luo Ning couldn't help laughing, Qian'er was also holding her stomach and laughing non-stop, this three brothers of the Fan family are really fun.

Luo Ning is just a little kid now, but the three brothers of the Fan family are more twisted than one in front of Luo Ning, and I really don't know how my aunt disciplined her.

"Miss, they're so funny!" Qian'er smiled while holding her stomach.

"Yes, it's so much fun!" Luo Ning couldn't help but nod in agreement.

"What do you say? General Xu actually cheated us of the title deed? As soon as Fan Gao heard Mrs. Fan tell the truth about the cause and effect, his face immediately changed, and he was about to burst into anger when he slapped the table.

"Fan Gao, are you not listening to me?" Mrs. Fan's face suddenly turned cold, and her voice also rose. General Fan slumped down suddenly, if there is something wrong with General Fan, it is fear of guilt, this fear is not fear, in fact, it is awe, but this kind of awe is sometimes too blind, except for the things of raising troops to fight, Mrs. Fan must not care, but as for these things that are sent by the short people in the family, it is all Mrs. Fan's words.

In fact, the reason why General Fan's husband is sluggish is also because the family is really poor, if it weren't for Mrs. Fan's sometimes sewing and repairing, washing, and subsidizing the family's life, the Fan family's life would not necessarily be so sad.

"It's not that I don't listen, it's just that it's my brother!" Fan Gao's face was distressed, and he grabbed his hair fiercely, that kind of heartache was really heart-wrenching, I didn't expect that the original good brother would have calculated his family's property, if General Xu had clearly managed General Fan's want, General Fan would not have been in pain, and General Xu's family had been poor in those years, but Fan Gao pulled it up.

"Alas, Fan Gogh, I know that you have a deep brotherly relationship, but do you think about what kind of life we live now? It doesn't matter if we suffer, it doesn't matter if our children suffer, but what about nieces? My niece is used to the life of the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, so you let her have a rough meal in our house? And is your brother still your brother? Think about what he did! Mrs. Fan said as she wiped her tears.

"Alas! I also know that's the case, so I'll leave it to my wife's orders! Fan Gao said dejectedly, with tears faintly in the tiger's eyes.

"It's not to listen to me, it's to listen to our niece, what insight can I have as an illiterate woman, I said that our niece is going to study at the second child's school, you have to work hard, do you think if one of the two of us is literate today, will he show this appearance in front of his niece today?" Mrs. Fan slapped Fan Gao with a fist and said with a smile.

"Madam, don't worry, it's not just Ning'er, even these three boys will be sent to the academy, and I can't let them suffer this illiterate loss in the future." Fan Gao immediately grabbed his wife's hand and said seriously.

Mrs. Fan smiled, the smile bloomed like a flower, and all of a sudden General Fan was so fascinated that he couldn't find the north, although the long night was such a simple house, but as long as there was true love, then all happiness was self-evident.

"Big brother, what's the good thing about letting me come to dinner today?" General Xu and Fan Gaolou entered the inner hall with their necks around their waists.

"Actually, it's not a big deal, brother, you know that my family has two shops that can't make ends meet, and I have something to discuss with you today!" Fan Gao said and gave General Xu a glass of wine.

"The eldest brother's affairs should also be discussed with his sister-in-law, how did he find his brother?" General Xu was very strange and didn't know why Fan Gao suddenly asked people to invite him to dinner, and after he came, he saw that the banquet in the inner hall had already been set up, and the banquet was very rich, but General Xu suddenly had a trace of panic in his heart.

"Is this the case, or is it because of the shops at home who can't make ends meet!" Fan Gao smiled wryly. "Now, the title deed is in this box, and my mind is to sell those shops, but your sister-in-law doesn't agree to anything, saying that she wants to leave those shops for her niece as a dowry! Ay! Fan Gao let out a long sigh as he spoke.

"Brother, you have always been assertive, you give me an idea for my eldest brother!" Fan Gao shook his head as he spoke, as if he was very distressed about this matter.

"This, big brother, I think what you said makes sense!" General Xu frowned, but he suddenly felt happy in his heart, if he could take the opportunity to buy this shop and give Fan Gao some silver, he would never have to be afraid of someone finding out about this matter in his life.

General Xu was just about to continue, when suddenly there was a shout from Fan He, the junior of the Fan family. "Dad, it's on fire, my cousin's house is on fire!"

"What?" General Fan was so frightened that he stood up all at once.

"Boss, why don't you die quickly!" Mrs. Fan's voice of crying and scolding came again.

"Oh, oh! Brother Xian, you look at the title deed for me, and when I come back, I will talk about this matter, and I will definitely wait for me to come back. Fan Gao stuffed the box into General Xu's arms and jumped out of the room at once.

General Xu looked at the box in his hand, and suddenly remembered something, the cold sweat on his face came down, and his face immediately turned blue. I also rushed out of the door at once, but I saw that the people of the Fan family were all there to fetch water to put out the fire, and the fire seemed to be very big, and the smoke was billowing inside. General Xu held the box, looked at the left and right, and suddenly rushed out of Fan's mansion and rode away.

"Look, my niece is right!" Mrs. Fan looked at the back of General Xu leaving in a hurry, dragged General Fan out and said.

"Alas, how did you say Xiao Xu became like this!" General Fan's eyes couldn't hide the loneliness.

"This is the human heart!" Mrs. Fan stretched out her hand and tapped General Fan's chest, "People say that when a man is rich, he becomes bad, will you become bad?" Mrs. Fan said coquettishly, although she was middle-aged, but making such a joke with her husband still made Mrs. Fan blush.

"Hey, it's enough to have you." General Fan stretched out his hand and hugged Mrs. Fan in his arms, looking like he had a wife and everything was done. Mrs. Fan couldn't help but smile secretly, and reached out to gently slap General Fan, but her heart was indescribably sweet.

General Xu also really went up, and it didn't take long to turn back to Fan Mansion again, and the original nervous expression was gone, replaced by another relaxed look, sitting at the table and drinking glass after glass of wine.

"Virtuous brother!" General Fan also came out at this time, but his face was smoked to a blacker level, and General Fan's face was black, but now it was more like a layer of black powder.

This was not Luo Ning's intention, Luo Ning really ordered a small house for General Fan's father and son to put out the fire in order to achieve a realistic effect, but because the house was built of straw, and the four of them deliberately left work, they didn't expect to almost really lead the house, which made the father and son nervous.

"Big brother, this is the title deed, you can take it!" General Xu reached out and handed the title deed to Fan Gao.

"Oh, if you don't say I'll forget. Little third son, take this title deed to your cousin and see if your cousin likes these shops? General Fan shouted loudly.

"Alas!" The little third son, Fan He, rushed over all of a sudden, grinned at General Xu, stretched out his hand to grab it, and the box disappeared without a trace in a flash.

"This kid is so hairy!" Fan Gao said with a smile.

"Big brother, there is still something in the younger brother's house, so I won't accompany the eldest brother, and the younger brother will invite the eldest brother another day!" General Xu stood up and clenched his fists at Fan Gao and was about to leave.

"How can this work, I haven't drunk the wine yet!" Fan Gao looked unhappy.

"This, eldest brother, there is indeed something at home today!" General Xu looked embarrassed.

"Dad, my cousin said she wanted to see the idea!" The junior son suddenly barged in, interrupting General Fan's words to continue to hold on.

"General Fan, farewell!" General Xu clenched his fists and turned around and left.

"Sure enough, as my cousin expected, this General Xu sent the title deed back." Seeing General Xu leave, Xiao Sanzi stood behind General Fan and said, but his little face was also indescribably serious.

"Alas! The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, a generation of new people replace the old people, the third son of the little third son is going to invite your second uncle to come, and several of you have reached the age when you should go to school. Fan Gao let out a long sigh, with these few stores, he must have become wealthy in his family soon, and he can fully support the education of these three children.

"Your cousin is so smart!" Fan Gao had to admit that Luo Ning was powerful, and he really looked at human nature very accurately. "It's just that this General Xu is afraid that he will have a gap with me from now on!" Fan Gao still couldn't hold back his sigh.

Although his family's things are coming back, according to Luo Ning's words, don't say that you eat meat every day, even if you eat meat every day, you can eat meat at once, but even so, Fan Gao's heart is still very painful, and his heart is full of apologies and even guilt for General Xu, they are all brothers who have come to this point today.
