Maodan stopped moving, with confusion in his eyes.
Obviously, she didn't understand what Fang Chenyu said, but she roughly understood that he didn't burn the house to tease her.
Li Yu on the side seemed to be thinking about something.
Fang Chenyu looked at Zhou Fugui and said, "Uncle Zhou, someone will ask you about the burning of the house in a while. Just tell him that I burned it. Don't say anything else. Someone will help you arrange it later."
Mr. Fang, are you here to help me?
Zhou Fugui was secretly surprised, and then nodded silently.
Seeing that everything was arranged properly, Fang Chenyu gave Li Yu a look and walked towards Fang Zhengyi.
Li Yu said anxiously, "Chen Yu, I know you are doing this for the good of Maodan's family, but is this okay? What if the house is not repaired, where will Maodan's family live?"
Fang Chenyu affirmed: "It will definitely be repaired. Before, when we made some money, my father was anxious to pay for it. Now that someone's house has been burned down, there is no reason not to pay for it."
"When we meet my dad later, don't let him get caught. I'll show you how to trick my dad. The angrier he gets, the more compensation the Maodan family will have to pay!" Fang Chenyu smiled smugly as he spoke.
Li Yu frowned and said, "You have a good idea, but you are not afraid of being beaten. Why are you laughing?"
"I laugh at my father's lack of wisdom and my uncle's lack of strategy." Fang Chenyu said confidently, "How could my father beat me to death when he only has me as his son? If it was my uncle who beat me, nothing would happen the next day."
Not far away, flames were seen rising from Zhou Fugui's house, with thick smoke billowing up.
Fang Zhengyi and Li Yuanzhao were both horrified. They wanted to go over to check what was going on, but after running two steps, they stopped immediately when they saw Fang Chenyu and the other person appear in front of them.
Fang Zheng asked anxiously, "Where is Zhou Fugui's family?"
Fang Chenyu glanced back and said calmly, "It's such a small house. How can we not escape from such a big fire?"
"How can you talk like that, kid!" Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows, "Why did his house suddenly catch fire? He cooked and set the house on fire."
Li Yu widened his eyes, clenched the corner of his clothes and stared at Fang Chenyu nervously.
You are courting death! Chen Yu is so bold... What should I do if I get beaten now?
Fang Chenyu said calmly: "Oh, it wasn't a fire caused by cooking, I lit it."
This understated sentence was like a bolt from the blue!
Fang Zheng's head suddenly buzzed and his whole body stiffened.
Li Yuanzhao was also shocked and shouted angrily: "Why did you set fire to someone else's house?"
"Uncle, this shabby place has tortured me for a month. I can't even eat meat, and I have to work hard every day. To be honest, I have wanted to burn his house down for a long time! If I wasn't afraid of having no place to live, I wouldn't have waited until today. And that dirty girl from Zhou Fugui's family, who only knows how to read books all day long, I have something to say to her..."
Fang Chenyu chattered incessantly, complaining with great emotion.
What I said was not entirely false. This past month's living here was extremely miserable.
It’s a rare opportunity for me to complain today, and most of what I say are real experiences.
Fang Zheng looked dazed and felt cold all over, as if he had fallen into an icy valley.
This is my son...I actually gave birth to such a little beast?
Destroying someone's family just because you're unhappy?
What did he learn this month?
The fire in the distance, the thick smoke and the dark sky were exactly like Fang Zhengyi's mood at the moment.
Looking at Fang Chenyu who was still shaking his head and listing all the faults of Zhou Fugui's family.
Fang Zheng staggered two steps, covered his chest with his hands, his face pale.
My heart aches as if it were being bitten by ants or pierced by thousands of arrows.
A great sense of powerlessness arose...
Is my son the kind of scum who is born a criminal and can never be taught?
What sin have I committed?
"Also, Zhou Fugui's father is sick all day long, and he sleeps like a bellows at night. I'm really afraid that he will infect me with the disease..."
Bang!
A swift and powerful slap landed directly on Fang Chenyu's cheek.
The small body fell directly to the ground.
"Beast!" Fang Zheng gritted his teeth, two tear marks appearing on his face.
Fang Chenyu was beaten so hard that he saw stars and lay on the ground, covering his cheek which had swelled up instantly.
After recovering from his shock, he looked at Fang Zhengyi who was in a rage, his heart already filled with fear.
Dad, are you serious?
Even so, Fang Chenyu still trembled and said stubbornly: "Dad, what I said is true! They are just a poor family! So what if I burned down their house!"
Hearing this, Fang Zheng smiled miserably.
Then he kicked Fang Chenyu hard, knocking him over.
The next second, he quickly pulled out the belt from around his waist and whipped Fang Chenyu on the buttocks again and again.
"I'll let you say it again! I'll let you say it again!"
With every slap, Fang Zhengyi let out a desperate roar, but after two or three roars his voice broke.
Fang Chenyu wailed and rolled on the ground crying, trying to avoid the beating from the belt.
I didn't expect the teacher to be so cruel. Li Yu was so frightened that she could only stand there and cry, "Teacher, please stop hitting me! Teacher, please stop hitting me!"
Li Yuanzhao saw Fang Zheng going crazy and rushed over, yelling, "Old Fang! Calm down, you can't hit him like that. He's still young, you might hurt him."
"Get lost!"
Fang Zheng pushed Li Yuanzhao hard, and he fell to the ground with a heavy fall.
But the next moment after he fell to the ground, he propped himself up with his hands, kicked his legs, turned over suddenly, knocked Fang Zheng to the ground, and pinned him to the ground.
Li Yuanzhao said with a grim look on his face: "You f*cking want to kill your son!?"
Fang Zhengyi was pressed down and unable to move. Listening to Fang Chenyu's crying beside his ears, his heart was torn apart by pain.
He patted Li Yuanzhao's hands twice and said, "Let me get up."
"You can't fight anymore." Li Yuanzhao said nervously.
"I know..."
Fang Zheng stood up with disheveled hair and waved to the stunned Jinyiwei guards standing by the carriage.
When they ran forward, Fang Zhengyi pointed at the still burning hut and said weakly, "Go, two people, find a place for Zhou Fugui and his family to stay in the capital, treat them well, and meet any needs."
Hearing Fang Zhengyi's arrangement, Li Yu felt relieved, but he felt uncomfortable when he saw Fang Chenyu lying on the ground crying out in pain.
The sacrifice seems a bit too great...
Fang Zhengyi walked in front of Fang Chenyu and said coldly: "Since I can't teach you well, you don't have to go to school anymore, and you don't have to read any books anymore. From today on, you are not allowed to step out of the princess's mansion. When you grow up, just be a waste and don't harm others."
"...You, I am so disappointed."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng's bitterness and grievance finally turned into a sigh.
Fang Chenyu staggered and propped up his upper body, his face covered with tears. He endured the pain in his body and said stubbornly: "Dad... I am also disappointed in you."
"Someone! Carry him back!"
