Chapter 342: My brother-in-law is so ugly that it is unacceptable
Wine is not cheap. Qin Run had purchased a lot of grapes before, and the winery brewed a batch of wine. A jar of this stuff can be sold for at least one hundred taels, and it is not a problem to sell it for a high price of several hundred taels. People outside are almost scrambling to buy it.
Qin Run knows how to do business and he is very good at hunger marketing. He usually sells wine in jars. Besides, everyone knows that the winery has little stock of this stuff, so he has to fight hard to get it.
Xu Yunfan was able to take out so much tonight, and the families who came to eat were extremely surprised.
This is how Chinese New Year is like. You go to my house to eat, I go to your house to eat, relatives visit relatives, and there are endless dinners every day.
Xiao Qin's family invited them to dinner, so as to reciprocate, these families naturally had to treat them to dinner as well.
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Qin Run pushed Xu Yunfan up early in the morning. Xu Yunfan rubbed his eyes drowsily and asked, "What time is it?"
"It's seven o'clock."
In winter, the days are short and the nights are long. At seven o'clock, it was just dawn outside. Xu Yunfan saw that it was not very bright in the house. When he heard that it was only seven o'clock, he lay down again, pulled the quilt, and wanted to continue sleeping.
Seeing this, Qin Run pulled him up again, "Get up, we have to take Brother Fang and Xiaobao back to the Fang family today. There are many guests coming to the Fang family, we can't be late."
In the past two days, Xu Yunfan and Qin Run had endless dinner parties every day, and with the arrival of envoys from two countries, people like Fang's father were also busy and had to take turns to rest. Today happened to be Fang's father's rest time, and other relatives of the Fang family came to pay New Year's greetings. Fang Zixi, the married man, did not go home on the second day of the New Year, so naturally he had to go back today.
Fang Zixi is without her husband and she is heavy. What use can Xiaobao, a four-year-old kid, be? At this time, who will go if not her brother-in-law?
Xu Yunfan scratched his hair a few times and said, "I'm half asleep. Are you feeling well? I'm sorry I went too far last night."
In recent days, Xu Yunfan seemed to be addicted, because he was inevitably forced to drink some white wine at the dinner party. Although he was not drunk, he was extremely energetic. Maybe when a man drinks some wine, certain desires will come up, and the sperm will go to his brain, so he pesters Qin Run every night.
I don't know where Xu Yunfan learned this, but he wants to try this and that. Although Qin Run's body is not as soft as other guys, his flexibility is surprisingly good. In the past two nights, Xu Yunfan was satisfied with all kinds of postures.
Human desires are endless. Once you get something, you will want more. Xu Yunfan got the sweetness and became more greedy.
Qin Run felt too embarrassed to cooperate with some positions, so Xu Yunfan would look pitiful, with tears in his eyes, and make soft requests. It was really unfair.
Qin Run doted on Xu Yunfan without any bottom line, and Xu Yunfan was good at pretending. Qin Run couldn't bear to make him unhappy. Under the double temptation of desire and beauty, he had no ability to resist and could only let the other party do whatever he wanted.
Just last night, Xu Yunfan went even further, making Qin Run sweat profusely. He was so tired that his body was weak and his waist was sore, and the leg that was supporting the ground was almost cramping.
Qin Run gently kicked Xu Yunfan. "Now you care about me? Why didn't you stop when I told you to? You're so hypocritical. As expected, men's words are deceitful."
Although the words seemed to be blaming, Qin Run's face showed no less tenderness than usual. Xu Yunfan came over with a smile, put his hands on both sides of Qin Run's thighs, and pecked Qin Run's lips a few times.
Xu Yunfan's smile was very annoying. "Hey, now you know how to say it. I was obedient before, but you slapped me again."
He remembered it all. Qin Run had hoarsely told him to slow down, but he didn't understand and actually slowed down obediently. As a result, Qin Run patted him and told him to speed up again.
After a few times, Xu Yunfan figured it out. That's why he said those words to Qin Run that night. Boys, like girls, like to say one thing and mean another.
Xu Yunfan shamelessly continued, "Last night, when I sped up instead of slowing down, you were so happy that you almost cried. You told me to stop and be gentler, but I didn't listen. Didn't you..."
"Stop talking now." Before Xu Yunfan could finish, Qin Run, whose face was red as blood, quickly covered his mouth. "If you say anything more, I'll bite you."
"Hehe...you want to bite me~~"
I don’t know what he thought of, but Xu Yunfan, a guy with a head full of pornographic garbage, shrugged his shoulders, his eyes filled with smiles, and a happy voice came out.
"What are you laughing at?" Qin Run was indeed a little naive.
Xu Yunfan turned his face away and laughed twice more, "I won't tell you, otherwise you will blame me again."
Seeing Xu Yunfan smiling like that, Qin Run probably wasn't thinking about anything good. He pressed over and pinned him down. "Are you thinking about something lewd? Xu Yunfan, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person."
"I thought you already knew that I am just that kind of person to you, and you like me that much, don't you?"
"You take advantage of the fact that I like you and bully me."
"Yeah, who told me to be favored? I'm arrogant and want to get more and more, do you understand? I don't bully others, but I like to bully you. I like to see you cry because of me bullying you. Oh, Run'er, you don't know how annoying your expression is... well..."
The two of them made another mess on the bed. Xu Yunfan was pressed down and kissed for a long time. Only then did Qin Run get up, satisfied.
"Uncle Qin, you must remember to pick up Xiaobao. Xiaobao is waiting for you at grandma's house." Before leaving, Xiaobao gave Qin Run many instructions, fearing that Qin Run would forget.
Qin Run wanted to send Qin An and Qin Mu back to the Qin Mansion to accompany Master Qin and the others. Xu Yunfan took the little treasure Fang Zixi back to the Fang family first, so they naturally went their separate ways.
Even though Fang Zixi was around, Xiaobao was still very attached to Qin Run. He would call out if he didn't see him for half a day. He was afraid that Qin Run would not go, so when Xu Yunfan threw him into the carriage, he would lift the curtain and call out to Qin Run.
Fang Zixi looked at Xiaobao's reluctance to leave Qin Run and couldn't help but laugh, "Okay, after your father Qin sends your second and third uncles to grandpa's house, he will go find Xiaobao."
Xiaobao is reluctant to leave Qin Run, but Fang Zixi doesn't feel jealous. She just feels happy. Children are actually very smart. They know clearly who is good to them and who is not.
Fang Zixi would be a fool to be jealous that her son has more people loving him.
When he was talking to Xiaobao, he could call Qin Run Xiaobao's daddy, but when it came to Xu Yunfan, he would call him Xiaobao's uncle.
Xiaobao is used to it, but some of the people who came to the Fang family today were unknown to him. Some of these people were not native to the capital, but distant relatives of the Fang family, living in other mansions. They just took this opportunity to make their presence felt, interact more with the Fang family, and build relationships with them.
Some people heard Xiaobao calling Xu Yunfan father and shouting something like "How long will it take for Uncle Qin to arrive?" and couldn't help but look at Xu Yunfan a few more times.
From the moment he entered the door, Xu Yunfan, who was holding Xiaobao and accompanying Fang Zixi, became the focus of attention.
It’s nothing, Xu Yunfan is just too famous.
In the Great Yan Dynasty, there is another exiled immortal who can crush Xiao Hengzhi, the number one. Everyone knows that Xu Yunfan is a man of both wisdom and beauty, a man of both civil and military talents.
I had only heard about it before and thought it was exaggerated. But after seeing it today, I finally understood what it meant to say "There must be a reason for everything".
After Xu Yunfan left, many people began to whisper to each other, sharing their experiences and observations of Xu Yunfan.
Xu Yunfan was accustomed to the attention of outsiders. In the Fang family, he didn't know anyone except the Fang family members. Compared with other people who gathered in groups of three or four to chat and laugh, Xu Yunfan, who was with his son, couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed and lonely.
The Fang family was too busy, entertaining this and that, and they were too busy to take care of Xu Yunfan. The other men wanted to go up and chat with Xu Yunfan, but they were afraid that Xu Yunfan would be unhappy and feel it was rude. They had all heard that Xu Yunfan was notoriously difficult to see.
The so-called difficult to see is just an indirect unwillingness to have too much contact with other people.
Xu Yunfan looked around and felt puzzled. When he was having dinner at the Meng and Lin families, he was very popular and many people wanted to talk to him.
It seems that he is not very popular at Fang's house today. He has been sitting there for more than ten minutes and no one comes up to talk to him, which makes him bored to death.
This can't go on. After all, he is Fang Zixi's brother-in-law. He came in without saying a word. These people might think that he has a bad temper or has some kind of opinion about them.
Since others didn't come, Xu Yunfan simply took the initiative.
After a while, Xu Yunfan "infiltrated the enemy" and chatted and laughed with others. This scene and mood made more than a dozen young masters and girls on the side stunned.
"Master Xu, this... is quite down-to-earth."
The other adults were in another place, talking about national affairs or court matters. None of them were as interested in the things going on in the backyard as Xu Yunfan was. He looked very interested in listening.
Xu Yunfan was surrounded by a group of women and their husbands. He took a sip of tea and started talking again, "That's how it is over there. If the rich masters like a girl, they won't bring her home, but keep her outside. If they don't like her anymore, they'll just give her a few houses and a few thousand taels and send her away..."
These women and husbands were very curious about what Xu Yunfan talked about overseas. When Xu Yunfan first came over, they were very reserved, fearing that if they talked about these trivial family matters, Xu Yunfan would think they were gossipy.
However, Xu Yunfan was even more amazing than them. When he talked about the little things in the village, he described them vividly, as if he had seen them with his own eyes. Everyone was stunned by what he said, but after hearing it, they wanted to hear more. They opened up unconsciously and started talking to each other about what they had seen and heard.
Unfortunately, they only heard about the news happening around them, unlike Xu Yunfan, who was also well-informed about foreign news.
"Master Xu..."
"Master Xu..."
Seeing that Xu Yunfan was humble and what he said was very novel, the men would ask further questions when they encountered something they were curious about that they couldn't understand.
When Fang Zixi came over to check on Xu Yunfan out of worry, Xu Yunfan was chatting enthusiastically. Someone must have asked about his elder brother. Xu Yunfan clearly didn't know about the existence of Xu Yunzhuo, but that didn't stop him from bragging.
"What does my eldest brother do? Oh, that's incredible! My eldest brother's job is confidential and can't be known to outsiders. He has to be heavily guarded when he goes out. I think you've all heard about the strange things I have. In fact, those things are everywhere in our area. My eldest brother's job is to research more powerful things that Sun doesn't have at present. It's very powerful, and not everyone can do it."
"As for how much my eldest brother's monthly allowance is? Honestly, I'm not exactly sure. I only know that every year on my birthday, he gives me a house and a car. Some houses are quite expensive, costing around 800,000 taels. He also gives my second brother a birthday gift, and the price isn't much lower either. He not only gets a monthly allowance, but also a share of the shop's profits. If you were to ask him how much his monthly allowance is, I'd have no idea."
Wow!
Xu Yunfan's words immediately caused the crowd to explode.
It's incredible.
How rich is Xu Yunzhuo?
He gave away houses worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and he gave away more than one house a year.
Aunt Yi felt her throat dry, "Master Xu, your eldest brother is so outstanding, is it true that he hasn't married yet?"
It's no wonder the aunt asked this question. After all, Xu Yunfan said it himself just now. Some rich people in his area like to keep concubines. They have seven or eight children, and their family members probably don't even know about it.
Xu Yunfan shook his head. "That's definitely not possible. I know my eldest brother well enough. If he dares to do something this messy, my father will break his third leg."
“Hehe…”
Xu Yunfan spoke in a down-to-earth manner, and the aunt who asked the question giggled, completely forgetting the manners and appearance of a wealthy family.
Someone laughed, and the others followed suit. Xu Yunfan grabbed another handful of peanuts and started eating. "Aunt, what you just said about your ghost fire? Is that true?"
“It’s true…”
Xu Yunfan mingled with them, feeling like a fish in water. When he ate too many melon seeds and peanuts, he would drink some tea to moisten his stomach. He looked very comfortable.
"Brother Fang, is that your brother-in-law? Why is he different from what I imagined?" A man of sixteen or seventeen looked at Xu Yunfan, very puzzled.
Fang Zixi: "What's different? What kind of person do you imagine him to be?"
In Fang Zixi's opinion, Xu Yunfan is good in every way. He is good to Xiaobao, good to her husband, good to her brother-in-law, and he is even better to her as her sister-in-law. Such a person is good in every way.
The young man replied: "The Lord Xu I imagined should be like other masters, dignified and majestic, with a natural awe-inspiring air, but he looks elegant and refined. Lord Xu may look like a bookworm, but..." Which master would mingle with a bunch of women and men and have a conversation with them?
Fang Zixi smiled and said, "My brother-in-law has a good temper. He believes in equality between men and women. He can get along with anyone, no matter if they are male or female, as long as their character suits his taste."
Unlike some teachers in Dayan, who have a high opinion of themselves, they always feel that they cannot get along with these women and husbands in the backyard.
What these people talked about most was nothing more than trivial gossip about other people.
"So that's how it is, Brother Fang. Xiaobao and Lord Xu really do look alike. If they were to go out together, anyone who didn't know would definitely believe they were father and son."
What's so strange about Xiaobao looking like Xu Yunfan? There are many nephews and uncles like him.
If Xiaobao hadn't looked like Xu Yunfan, Qin Run would have sent him to the government office long ago.
Fang Zixi knew that many people who came today would definitely ask Xu Yunfan questions when they saw him. He was heavy, and when he got off the carriage and entered the house, Xu Yunfan was the one who stayed by his side, holding Xiaobao.
Xiaobao had been scared when being held by Xu Yunfan before. Many times, when Xiaobao was about to fall, Xu Yunfan would hold him back. As a result, when Xiaobao was held by Xu Yunfan, he would habitually hug his neck and get close to him. Because they were so close, outsiders could tell at a glance whether they looked alike or not.
Fang Zixi: "My uncle looks a lot like his older brother, so it's no surprise that Xiaobao looks like him."
To be honest, she gave birth to a child who looked so much like her younger brother-in-law. If Xu Yunfan was not only nineteen years old and Xiaobao was only four years old, it would have been well known that he returned to Beijing with a big belly that year. Xu Yunzhuo had appeared in Beijing once. Otherwise, he would not have been able to explain why he jumped into the river.
"I heard from the brothers outside that they look very similar, except that Fourth Brother's husband seems to be wearing something on his face. He also looks more calm than Xu Yunfan." After all, it was just hearsay and he had never actually seen it, so it was inevitable that he wanted to confirm it again.
Fang Zixi nodded, "That's right, what they said is correct."
Another man came over to chat with Fang Zixi, "The examination will be held in a few days. Master Xu, are you going to continue taking the exam?"
"Well, he does have this plan." Xu Yunfan has come this far. It would be a pity not to continue taking the exam. It would be like giving up when he is only one step away from success. If he really doesn't take the exam, it will inevitably make people feel regretful.
"Since we still have to take the exam, it seems we have to prepare."
Fang Zixi stopped talking. Without Xiao Hengzhi's pressure, Xu Yunfan didn't even want to touch the book, let alone read it.
Qin Feiyu mentioned this matter a few days ago, and Xu Yunfan responded well, but he stayed in the backyard all afternoon and didn't come out, and Qin Feiyu didn't take action against him.
When Lord Ye came to the Fang family to pay New Year's greetings, he saw Xu Yunfan who was "surrounded" at a glance.
Mother Fang noticed that Lord Ye was staring at Xu Yunfan in a daze and couldn't help but sigh, "Do you want to go over and talk to Yunfan?"
The old lady of the Ye family came from the Fang family. Now that she is old, it is not convenient for her to come back, so Lord Ye can only come back to wish her a happy new year on her behalf. However, he did not expect Xu Yunfan to be there too.
"No, even if I go, he won't know who I am." Lord Ye thought bitterly. For some things, if you miss the best opportunity to explain, it seems that once you make a mistake, it will last a lifetime.
It is inevitable that people will feel uncomfortable that he didn't apologize before but is now rushing to apologize.
Fang's mother: "You too, it's been more than ten years. If there is anything, why not talk it out? The matters between the elders have nothing to do with the younger generation. I don't know what the conflict is between you and Madam Xiao, but we are all family. Broken bones are still connected."
Lord Ye just nodded in response to Fang's mother's words. It was unknown whether he heard it or not.
Xu Yunfan was stared at for a long time. At first, he didn't want to care, but the other party was really too much. He was staring at him for so long that he felt uncomfortable. He looked up and saw that the other party seemed to be guilty and quickly looked away. "Hey, Auntie, do you know who the uncle standing over there is?"
"That's Lord Ye from Lord Ye's family."
The master of Lord Ye’s family?
Isn’t that Ye Shizi’s father?
Xu Yunfan was sure that he did not know this person, but the way the other party looked at him was somewhat intriguing.
"Hey, look, whose boy is that?"
"I don't know. There are so many young masters in the capital that I can't recognize them all."
"Ah, you silly guy, the people who come to the Fang Mansion today must be people the Fang family knows, but why haven't I seen such guys when I came here in previous years?"
"Wow, this guy is so good-looking. Even a man like me has to look up high with his stature. I'm so envious."
The man who came was wearing a purple cloak and had an extraordinary appearance. He was taller and more handsome than the other guys. Everything he wore, including the hair crown on his head, was exquisite.
Some men don't like boys, not because boys have low fertility or other reasons, but because there are still some stereotypes in their ideas.
The boy looks just like a man.
She has the appearance of a man, but she is very delicate. When she walks, her waist twists and turns, just like a woman. It is really too inconsistent. She doesn't look like a man at all. She is neither male nor female. It is really unacceptable.
But the paradox is that the aesthetic viewpoint left by the ancients is just like this. Therefore, in the village, those who are strong, powerful, tall, and in short, like Qin Run are considered extremely ugly.
It’s different in the capital. Guys like Qin Run can actually arouse their desire to conquer.
Of course, not many people who came to the Fang family today had these ideas. In their eyes, a boy is a boy. There is no law that stipulates whether a boy should be as tall and mighty as a man or as petite as a woman. In fact, the law has not even clearly stipulated how a man or a woman should meet the standards. What kind of person he looks like is none of their business.
At this moment, these people were just envious. The guy was taller and more handsome than them, which really made them feel a little embarrassed.
"Don't you know him?"
"I don't know him. I haven't been to the capital for a long time. Could it be that there's a new rich man in the capital?"
"Are you stupid? This is Mr. Qin's family."
"Who? Mr. Qin? Oh, the shopkeeper. No wonder I don't know him."
"He's not the shopkeeper. That's not right. He's the son of General Qin and King Xiao. He's also the husband of Mr. Xu and the owner of the Food City. So, do you know who he is?"
A man's mouth dropped open in surprise. "What? This guy is Master Xu's husband? No way, I heard Master Xu's husband is ugly... uh, just average looking."
Damn it, who spread this rumor? How could someone like Qin Run be so ugly?
If he is still considered ugly, then the others? Aren't they ugly beyond the reach of justice?
Damn it, it turns out that rumors can’t be trusted completely.
