Chapter 175 Not a Good Match
Fang Caiwei, who had touched nothing, ignored Cheng Fangjiao's sneer. She looked at Qiu Ma and said, "Qiu Ma, take the money first, and later..."
"Miss, it's not that I don't want to, but it's useless even if I give you money!" Mother Qiu interrupted her and said helplessly. When Fang Caiwei was unconscious, Mother Qiu wanted to leave. The Cheng family was ransacked, and the women in the family would not have a good ending. Mother Qiu was even more anxious to leave than Fang Caiwei!
Who knew that those officers and soldiers were so outrageous, one more than the other. She stuffed silver into their mouths, and the officers and soldiers took the silver, but then turned their faces and denied it!
"Miss, we must leave and go back to the Fang family to find a solution from the master." Mother Qiu quietly winked at Fang Caiwei, her eyes falling on her belly.
Fang Caiwei covered her stomach and sat down on the ground. Her eyes were fierce. She couldn't just wait to die in the Cheng family?
"Ouch, my stomach hurts." Fang Caiwei shouted loudly.
When Cheng's mother saw her like this, she knew what she was thinking. She stepped forward, grabbed Fang Caiwei's hand, and warned her in a low voice: "It's useless. You were unconscious this afternoon, and they refused to send a doctor."
"Mom, I want to go back to the Fang family and ask clearly. The Fang and Cheng families are now in the same boat. I am pregnant with the Cheng family's child. My father will not ignore me." Fang Caiwei spoke quickly.
Yes, the Fang family only has two daughters, not even a son. Mother Cheng's eyes flashed, and she joined Fang Caiwei in shouting.
The Cheng family was in a mess, and the Fang family was even more of a mess.
When Mr. Fang found out that his weapons had been stolen, he was so angry that he vomited blood. When his people came back with information, they said that it was the Cheng family who reported it. Without even thinking, Mr. Fang took some valuables and ran away.
When Lord Kong came to Fang's mother's house looking for Mr. Fang, there was no trace of Mr. Fang in the entire Fang Mansion.
Fang Caifei had already secretly taken her valuables and followed Wang Xiucai to Meicheng.
The Fang family was like a pile of loose sand. Fang's mother wanted to ask the Cheng family for help, but when she learned that the Cheng family was raided, Fang's mother fainted.
…
"Yuer, will the Third Prince go to the provincial capital with you?" Old Madam Xiao was sitting in the pavilion. She would receive news from Lingnan from time to time, and her heart was still at peace.
This trip to Hongdu Prefecture City was related to whether Fengchunlou could become the number one restaurant. Old Madam Xiao and Xiao Jiuyue talked for a long time and finally agreed.
"The Third Prince is going back to Shengjing, so it's on the way." Xiao Jiuyue casually explained, "Don't worry, Grandmother. I'm taking Lianxin, Huaqing, and the new arrival Donggui with me this time."
"Not only that, butler Jin and Yu Ge are also going with me this time." Xiao Jiuyue knew what Old Madam Xiao was worried about. She said, "I am cooperating with His Highness the Third Prince. If this succeeds, the Xiao family will be vindicated."
Xiao Jiuyue told everything, fearing that Old Madam Xiao would match them up randomly or have wild imaginations.
"Yue'er, you must be cautious about this matter." Old Madam Xiao tightened her grip on Xiao Jiuyue's hand and said, "The royal family is a deep place."
"Grandma, it's because the royal family is in deep trouble that Daddy didn't take sides, so he was exiled?" Although Xiao Jiuyue didn't hear Xiao Fu's answer, she knew very well that Xiao Fu would never be greedy for the 800,000 taels of disaster relief silver!
Under the moonlight, Xiao Jiuyue's eyes were firm: "Mingzhe may not be able to protect himself. In this case, why not take the initiative to attack?"
"Yuer." Old Madam Xiao looked at this scene and sighed in her heart. If he were a man, with Yueer's talent, he might not be worse than Jialing!
Madam Xiao thought about the letter the old man had sent her, which was full of praise for Xiao Jiuyue. She waved her hand and said, "Forget it. The family is yours, so you can make the decision. However, Yue'er, you must be careful in everything. If you encounter any difficulties, don't carry them alone. Although grandma is old, she has lived for decades."
"Grandma is not old." Xiao Jiuyue took Old Madam Xiao's arm. She thought it would take a lot of persuasion, but Old Madam Xiao agreed easily. She smiled and said, "Grandma, our Xiao family will definitely be reunited, and everything will be safe and sound!"
Her firm words seemed like a promise to Old Madam Xiao.
"Yu'er." Old Madam Xiao raised her hand and placed it on her shoulder, saying, "You have to carry the entire Xiao family on these small shoulders. It's hard for you."
"As long as my family is safe, what does my hardship mean?" Xiao Jiuyue said playfully, "Grandma, look, Daddy and Grandfather went to Lingnan, such a cold and harsh place, and they still sent us so many seafood. We must work hard together and strive to live a prosperous life."
"With Yue'er, the little God of Wealth, here, the family will surely be prosperous." Old Madam Xiao said jokingly. The villagers all regarded Xiao Jiuyue as the God of Wealth!
The grandfather and grandson chatted for a long time, until late at night, when Xiao Jiuyue left.
"Your Highness the Third Prince is not a good match."
Old Madam Xiao was twirling Buddhist beads in her hand, and the murmuring sound was blown away by the wind.
The royal family is the most ruthless. Yue'er can't tolerate even a grain of sand in her eyes and doesn't like being restricted. If she really enters the royal family...
July 1st.
"Sister, you have a day off today. You will be back in the city tomorrow. Let's go hunting in the mountains?" Xiao Jiayuan had been looking forward to it since early morning. Seeing that his sister was about to go out, Xiao Jiayuan decided to take advantage of the day off to drag Xiao Jiuyue to the mountains to hunt.
"Sister, I have recently started practicing archery, and Manager Jin even praised my good accuracy!" Xiao Jiayuan looked at Xiao Jiuyue eagerly.
Xiao Jiuyue couldn't bear to refuse the bright light of expectation. She deliberately said, "In this weather, there are all kinds of snakes, insects, rats and ants on the mountain. Aren't you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid." Xiao Jiayuan straightened his back and took out a few medicine bags. "Sister, this is the medicine bag I bought. The doctor said that if you have this, you won't be afraid of snakes, insects, rats or ants."
"You're well prepared." Xiao Jiuyue took the medicine bag, and the faint aroma of medicine filled her nose. She said, "Then change clothes quickly. The sun will be too hot later."
"Sister, I'm changed." Xiao Jiayuan took off his outer shirt directly. The short-sleeved shirt inside was not like the robe he usually wore. It was very convenient to go up the mountain with just the shirt on top and the pants on the bottom.
Xiao Jiayuan ran away, and soon came back with a small backpack on his back and a specially made bow in his hand. He said, "Sister, look, I have all my arrows!"
"Have you been planning this for a long time?" Xiao Jiuyue looked at this scene and had no reason to refuse. She changed her clothes and took Xiao Jiayuan up the mountain.
"Hua Qing, Dong Gui, one of you will be responsible for leading the way, and the other will be responsible for covering the rear." Xiao Jiuyue didn't want anything to happen again, so he always brought enough supplies with him when he went out.
"Miss, I can clear the way." Jin Wen said, holding an axe. "I can do the rough work of clearing the way."
