Chapter 2147 Do those people remember?
Fang Hongzhong looked a little old-fashioned, but when Fang Xiu mentioned the past, he still couldn't hide his pain and self-blame.
Fang Zhuo took the opportunity to introduce the people at home, and Fang Xing gave the younger generation a gift one by one.
The carriage was still outside, so Fang Xing's temporary idea. He wanted to see how the officials and powerful people in Zhuozhou were.
But the gift he gave was a bit scary, Fang Zhuo said awkwardly: "Brother Xing, what have you done over the years?"
The gift he gave to the boss Fang Yin was a set of four treasures in the study and a box of books.
The second brother Fang Mu's gifts are probably the same, and they are all matched.
As for Zhuzhu, Fang Xing not only gave him a jade pendant, but also a box of jewelry, which scared Zhu so much that he didn't dare to take it at all.
Fang Hongzhong then came out of his memory, and nodded when he saw this, and smiled bitterly: "Let's take it."
Only then did Zhu take the box and then take the beads with him.
"Go and report to the official!"
When Zhu and Zhuzhu left, Fang Hongzhong shouted with red eyes: "Go to report to the official and arrest him! arrest him!"
Fang Xing didn't know why, so he looked at Fang Zhuo.
"Boss, go and report to the official! Capture that beast!"
Fang Hongzhong's body was trembling, and he looked like he was suffering from great anger.
"Go and call your second uncle, he will be more active and report to the official!"
Fang Zhuo stood up to answer, Fang Xing quickly called him, and then asked, "What's the matter with brother? I have some ability at least, if I can help me!"
Fang Hongzhong waved his hand and cried sadly.
Fang Zhuo sighed and said, "When the third uncle had an accident, his father and second uncle were restricted from leaving, so he raised a sum of money to ask someone to send him to the capital and asked that person to go to Peking to see your situation. Who knew that the man had been back for more than half a year and said..."
At that time, the capital was still in Jinling, so it took a lot of time to go there.
Fang Xing's heart has already outlined some context, but he needs to continue to observe and investigate.
No, no investigation is needed!
"Then Yang Er! Then Yang Er actually said that the third brother was killed by His Majesty. Xing'er, you were exiled. There was no one in the Fang family! He also said that he had given you the money..."
Fang Hongzhong beat his chest, making a sound, and his face flushed.
Fang Zhuo hurried over and held his hands and advised: "Father, Brother Xing looks okay at least, it can be considered as having experienced disasters."
Fang Hongzhong said with a breath of breath: "That beast! He said with a firm word that the third brother was beheaded and his head was still hanging on the public..."
Fang Xing frowned and said, "Uncle, what is that person doing now?"
Fang Hongzhong was so angry that he couldn't speak. Fang Zhuo thought for a while and said, "When he asked him to send letters and money, he was running errands in the yamen, and even minor officials were not considered as minor officials. Later... he got the blue eyes. Last time I heard that he was an official and was considered a leading figure in Zhuozhou."
Fang Xing felt relieved, and no longer had any doubts, and said, "Since I'm here, there is no need to worry about this. Brother, do you think this is good? I'll invite my second uncle first, and meet everyone, and then slowly deal with him."
Fang Zhuo was stunned, and then when he saw his two sons being excited, he felt a little sad. The Fang family had never had any customers coming in.
In families without guests, children will be excited when they see strangers coming to their homes, and then inexplicably attentive.
Fang Hongzhong stood up, and he had a trembling meaning. Fang Xing stood up, Fang Zhuo went over to support him and said, "Father, you might as well go and take a break first."
Fang Hongzhong's face was not very good and almost pale. He smiled at Fang Xing: "Wait for peace of mind, there is no obstacle here."
If you feel upset, people with poor cardiopulmonary function will feel tired and prone to vertigo.
He sent Fang Hongzhong away, Fang Zhuo drove away his two sons, and then the time to speak.
He picked up the teacup and said, "I remembered... at that time, the family was fine, and there were all servants and maids, and I didn't know how to make tea and cook. Now... I understand everything."
This sentence contained a lot of meaning, Fang Xing asked, "Can you tell me about the matter slowly?"
".........I was in trouble when the third uncle happened, and my father and second uncle were panicked. They just ordered us to not go far, so they just waited..."
Fang Xing later investigated Fang Hongjian's case, but it only affected the fish in the pond. When the case was finally closed, Fang Hongjian was just asked to go home to eat old rice, which was considered a safe landing.
"... Later, my father and second uncle couldn't wait, but they couldn't go, so they hired Yang Er, who was familiar with him, and gave him letters and money. The money was wanted to pass it over to you, and at least he could be ordered to the third uncle..."
"Yang Er came back for half a year and said he was almost arrested. He asked. He said that his third uncle was beheaded and showed up in public. You... you were exiled, and you didn't know where... there was a soldier here, so he didn't dare to ask."
Fang Xing pointed to the outside and asked, "Why did it decline again later?"
Fang Zhuo smiled bitterly and said, "After waiting for a few years, the government relaxed. However, my father was timid and almost planned to take his family into the mountains to hide, that is, to be a refugee... Later, he was blackmailed by the little official and Qingpi many times, and gradually became defeated."
He paused in the middle, Fang Xing noticed it, and didn't say anything, just smiled slightly.
"Do you remember them all?"
Fang Xing asked very easily, as if he was asking what to eat for dinner.
Fang Zhuo was stunned for a moment, looked at Fang Xing carefully, and finally said relievedly: "Remember, Yang Er wrote a note back then..."
"I'm talking about those little officials..."
Fang Xing's still relaxed attitude surprised Fang Zhuo. He said awkwardly: "Brother Xing, don't worry. Although Yang Er is an official, the sun is bright. Now that you are back, his evil deeds back then cannot be concealed..."
Fang Xing didn't know whether he should tell him the identity. He began to doubt, but later he thought about it and found it absurd.
If the people here know their identity, no matter what, even if they have no face to show up, Fang Yin and Fang Mu can always try it.
But he has never seen anyone in these years.
Then you just know nothing.
Fang Zhuo stood up and went outside, almost rude, but excited.
Fang Xing didn't move. He held the teacup and drank some bitter tea, but did not feel uncomfortable.
The house is very old, and the wooden beams look black, but the wood looks very different from the ordinary. If it were hundreds of years later, I would probably say that I could compensate for five or six houses on the spot.
The air was filled with a smell similar to moisture, mixed with the original smell of wood.
Fang Xing had been to an old house in the countryside before, and it was almost the same smell.
He leaned against the back of the chair, feeling the familiar smell a little comfortable.
He was even napping, relaxing his body and mind until he was awakened by the sound.
"Master, that...Master asked the eldest lady to find something to exchange money, and then go buy vegetables and wine."
Fang Xing opened his eyes and said slowly: "Tell him... no, drive the carriage in."
Fang Xing yawned, feeling reluctant to leave this relaxed feeling.
Xin Laoqi knew about his situation and regretted it.
He left the main house and Zhu had already come out. Judging from her appearance, she was clearly planning to go to pawn the things herself.
Zhu felt a little embarrassed. Fang Xing was too generous to take action. A box of gems made her, who had been in good life, feel a little angry.
So she gritted her teeth and took out the dowry jewelry, took out a gold hairpin, and prepared to take it for pawn.
She called her eldest son Fang Yin to accompany her, and the two left the inner courtyard together.
At this time, the Fang family had some problems with food and clothing, so only Xin Laoqi could walk freely.
When he arrived at the gate, Zhu saw that the gate was actually open and someone was lifting the threshold, he was stunned and said, "Is this...what is this to do?"
