Although everyone was eager to gossip, they didn't want to stay here any longer because everyone had already left.

They walked out in groups of three or five, talking as they walked.

Luo Qiao and Feng Shumin returned to the yard and saw Yang Jiancheng carrying a ladder out.

Feng Shumin asked curiously, "Old man, why are you moving the ladder?"

Yang Jiancheng smiled and said, "You are back, how is the Fang family doing?"

Feng Shumin walked in, ready to lend him a hand: "What are you doing?"

Yang Jiancheng smiled and said, "I'm cutting a few branches of wintersweet. Last time, Yanyan and Yueyue wanted to cut a few branches to take back for flower arrangement, but they forgot about them when they left. I'm thinking of asking Qiaoqiao to take them back later."

I set up the ladder and was about to go up.

Luo Qiao quickly said, "Master, I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll go up and cut it."

The master is already this old, we can’t let him climb any higher.

Luo Qiao quickly took the scissors from the master's hand, climbed up, and cut a few more. She thought about turning a corner and going to the machinery factory later. Gu Qianru liked to tinker with these the most.

After waiting, I found a cardboard box, put everything in order and put it in the trunk of the car.

Then he helped put the ladder back to its original place: "Master, if anyone wants to cut wintersweets again in the future, you should let them do it themselves, and don't let them climb so high by themselves, it's not safe."

Yang Jiancheng smiled and said, "It's okay. I was the one who climbed up to cut them before."

Luo Qiao looked at Feng Shumin who was standing not far away: "Master's wife, you don't care about it. My master is already so old."

Feng Shumin said: "I will keep an eye on him from now on and won't let him climb so high again."

Luo Qiao used the remaining wintersweets to make a vase and placed it on the table. She chatted with the old couple for a while, took out the burn ointment that the master had asked for from someone else, and then prepared to leave.

Luo Qiao smiled and said, "Aren't you an old friend of Grandpa He? Forget about the money. I remember you said that Grandpa He has a lot of peonies in his yard. If there are any Wei Zi and Yao Huang, just leave a few for me when you divide the plants."

Yang Jiancheng laughed and said, "Okay, I'll tell him later and ask him to leave a few more for you when he divides the plants."

When the old couple sent Luo Qiao out the door, they heard some neighbors talking about the Fang family. They said that Fang Wei would live with her mother Su Nan in the future, and Fang Huaizhan would give her child support every month. They also asked Fang Huaizhan to take out 3,000 yuan in one lump sum as compensation for the suffering their daughter had endured, and only then did the matter fall through.

After listening to this, Luo Qiao felt that the former daughter-in-law of the Fang family handled the matter very well and was a capable person, so why did they get divorced?

So he asked quietly, "Master's wife, why did Fang Wei's parents divorce?"

Feng Shumin said: "It's all the fault of the old lady of the Fang family when she was alive. She favored sons over daughters and despised the second son's family for only having a daughter. Now the family planning policy doesn't allow more births, so she came up with a dirty trick to instigate a divorce between the second son and his wife and let the second son's wife take the granddaughter away.

Then they could find another one for the second son, so that they could have another child. Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. The couple who were sowed apart could not live together anymore, and as a result, the second son got together with this later wife.

Fang Wei's mother was a hot-tempered person. As soon as she found out that Fang Huaizhan had cheated on her, she demanded a divorce. She wanted to take her daughter away, but the wife Fang Huaizhan later married said that she could not have children.

Old Mrs. Fang couldn't control her second son, and finally the couple divorced. Fang Huaizhan insisted on keeping his daughter. He thought that Li Hong could not have any more children, and Fang Wei was his only child, so he was determined to keep her and raise her himself.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Not long after the second son of the Fang family got divorced, Li Hong moved into the Fang family with a son.

Old Madam Fang’s good days are over now. Li Hong is not as easy to talk to as Fang Wei’s mother. She can easily make Old Madam Fang very angry. She fell ill last autumn and died.”

When Luo Qiao heard this, she thought that this was really a waste of a good life and was really asking for trouble.

Because Emma and Steven had called her before and said they would be back in Beijing later and wanted to have dinner together, she didn't stay for dinner.
