Chapter 253 What if someone finds out?
"Uncle."
Cai Lei looked at Fang Daru with a grin.
This is none other than the renowned scholar Fang! His own uncle.
Fang Daru and Cai Yuanfeng both married late in life. Cai Lei also had an older sister who married and moved away.
Cai Lei only knew that Fang Daru had been imprisoned for several years due to the emperor's suspicion, and then disappeared without a trace. Some people said he died in prison, but this person wasn't a good person; was he standing right in front of him? Who was blind enough to spread such a rumor?
"What uncle? Don't go around claiming relatives like that." Fang Daru frowned.
Chun Ya had already told this kid about it when he came last time.
The Cai family is a scholarly family, but I never expected them to raise such a boy.
“Uncle, I’m a member of the Cai family. You can disown me, but I have to acknowledge you.” Cai Lei smiled, looking utterly worthless.
“Those four people weren’t with us. Yu An and I came together. We met them on the way and they insisted on coming over. I really didn’t know it would turn out like this. Uncle, don’t worry, if he dares to insult my cousin, I’ll go and put a sack over his head and beat him up.”
According to seniority, she's my cousin's daughter, right?
Fang Daru sized him up and asked, "With your skinny arms and legs, how could you possibly win?"
This kid isn't particularly tall or short, and he looks like a clever person.
Cai Lei thought to himself, "Oh no, he was just saying that, but it sounds like my uncle really wants me to go and fight!"
Just as I was about to say something nice, Butler Lin arrived, followed by Yu An.
"Master, this young master said he came with the person inside, and he refuses to leave no matter what."
"Sir, I'm not with them, and I absolutely have no ulterior motives," Yu An hurriedly defended himself.
He sneaked here, knowing he'd have to kneel in family discipline sooner or later anyway. If he were sent back, he'd have to kneel even earlier.
"You two can stay. You've come all this way, have a simple meal before you leave," Fang Daru said, not urging the two men to leave.
They were all fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys, still just children at heart.
Er Ya arrived carrying a box of pastries. "Grandpa, where are the other four people? They're nowhere to be seen."
"They've already left." Fang Daru didn't mention what had just happened, as if he was afraid of offending his granddaughter's ears.
"Oh, they've left." Er Ya said, somewhat disappointed.
She also planned to take the opportunity to promote her snacks.
He immediately put on a smiling face, "Young Master Yu, Young Master Cai, come and try some of my pastries. These are some new products I've made recently."
Aren't there two other rich people who wouldn't pass up any opportunity to make money?
"Second Miss is so skillful," Yu An praised, not daring to look at Er Ya.
Fang Daru frowned. "Qingdai, go find your maternal grandmother. I have something to say to these two."
Er Ya, not understanding why, still left.
Fang Daru frowned and looked at the hesitant Yu An. "If you're thinking like that, you'd better get out of here as soon as possible, or I'll slap you."
"Sir, no, I do have feelings for the second young lady and want to marry her as my wife. I don't have any bad intentions."
Yu An panicked and blurted out his true feelings.
When she realized what she had said, her whole face turned completely red.
To make matters worse, when she turned around, she saw the second daughter and her sister standing at the door.
"I...I..."
Yu An wished he could find a hole to crawl into.
Did the second young lady hear what he just said? What should I do? Will she dislike him?
Er Ya realized what was happening and immediately started cursing, "So that's why they left! So these people have such filthy thoughts. Bah! They look so respectable, but they're shameless."
"Mother was right after all. Few men have good intentions. They should take a good look at themselves in the mirror. They don't even deserve to..."
Daya quickly tugged at Erya, interrupting her, "Grandpa, Grandma said you should go to her courtyard."
Fang Daru nodded. "Okay, I understand. You can go ahead and get back to work."
Daya hurriedly pulled Erya away.
Er Ya got into a habit of swearing when she was in the countryside. She would start swearing as soon as she got angry. She hadn't even said anything really bad yet. If she were to continue, it would get even worse.
She wouldn't be angry if he had such feelings for her, but he actually has his eye on her older sister. I'm furious.
Cai Lei hurriedly caught up and whispered, "My dear niece, I have no ill intentions. We are blood relatives."
He needs to explain himself, so he won't be wrongly accused.
Da Ya was stunned for a moment.
"What did you just call us?" Er Ya raised her voice.
Cai Lei made a quiet gesture, then turned to look at Fang Daru, "We're relatives. This is a gift from me, as your elder, to give you when we first meet."
"Who do you think you are? Who wants your things? Let's go, eldest sister." Er Ya pulled Da Ya away.
Once they reached a secluded spot, Er Ya said, "Big sister, you go to the study first, I'm going out for a bit."
Daya, "What are you doing out here right now? It's almost lunchtime!"
“When I went there before, there was a shop in a good location, but the owner wasn’t there. He said to come back when it was time to eat. I’ll go take another look now, and if I can rent it, I’ll rent it.”
"Okay, don't go out alone, take someone with you."
"I understand, big sister. Don't worry then."
Er Ya led two servants out the door and headed straight for Xiangyun Tower.
"You, surnamed Li, come out here! You shameless bastard, you come to someone else's house as a guest and immediately ask to take a concubine. Don't you even take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? What kind of scum are you? Do you really think you're some kind of gold or silver ingot? And you call yourself a scholar? Bah!"
"Don't hide inside and keep quiet. Come out and let everyone see your hypocritical face and your filthy thoughts..."
Right now, the people in the restaurant are eating in the lobby. This kind of large restaurant offers both dining and accommodation.
Hearing the shouts and curses outside, everyone pricked up their ears.
"Brother Yun, why does this voice sound so familiar?"
Li Xian suddenly realized the insult was directed at him, and his face instantly darkened. "You brat, you don't know what's good for you! You dare to come here and insult me!"
Yun Qin stopped him, saying, "Brother Li, you've gone too far. Even if you had those thoughts, you shouldn't have said them when you were a guest. It's absolutely disrespectful to the host."
No one would readily offer to take a concubine. Madam Lin, with her demeanor, would never marry her daughter off as a concubine.
It's a pity, he just saw several books, but he can't borrow them anymore.
"Brother Yun, don't you mean that?" Li Xian looked at Yun Qin with a displeased expression.
He only wanted to take a young girl as a concubine, but Yun Qin was actually eyeing other men's wives.
What would be the reaction if people found out?
"Don't hide inside and keep quiet, you shameless thing..."
Just as Er Ya was getting into her rant, Li Xian came out of Xiangyun Tower.
"You brat, who are you yelling at!"
