The cannon fodder female supporting role is busy in the book, and she gets mad when she disagrees wi

Earl of Loyalty and Bravery Fang Zhenghua is in a good mood today.

He held the birdcage in one hand and held the other hand with a fist behind his back, then walked into the Earl's Mansion and returned to the backyard.

Madam Fang and Fang Ruoruo were sitting together ordering tea. When they saw Fang Zhenghua come in, they stood up to greet him with a look of joy on their faces and asked:

"Did the master encounter any happy event today?"

"It's nothing, but I heard from a colleague that our daughter will have a great future." Fang Zhenghua said with a smile, and then sighed, "Ever since I was injured and unable to lead the troops and go to the front line, our Fang family has only the title but no real power in the court. This situation may improve in the future."

The Fang family’s situation in the capital is very embarrassing——

In terms of title, the Fang family is only an earl's family. Among the many duke's and marquis' families in the capital, its status is relatively low and it does not have much influence among the powerful.

In terms of official positions, Fang Zhenghua is the only one in the Fang family who is serving as an official in the court, and it is a sinecure with no say. His two sons are now in their twenties, but have not achieved anything particularly promising.

The eldest son, Fang Youwei, should have inherited the character of Fang's ancestors and taken the path of a military general.

However, he was frightened by the scene of his father being seriously injured that year and was unwilling to join the army. He only wanted to be a civil servant, so he always wanted to study and take the imperial examination. However, he took the exam for two consecutive years and failed both times.

It can be seen that he is not good at studying, but he is unwilling to change his mind because he is worried about being killed on the battlefield.

The second son, Fang Youdao, was a young man from an aristocratic family who was raised in a free-range environment since childhood.

Originally, relying on the fact that he had an elder brother to inherit the title and family business, there was no need for him to be too outstanding, lest he become ambitious and cause quarrels among brothers, so there were no high requirements for him.

Although he is not a bad playboy, he does not have any great abilities.

For the Fang family, Fang Zhenghua had taken an idle position with little room for promotion, and his two sons were temporarily unreliable, so they carefully trained their daughter, hoping to use her marriage to the royal family, try their luck in following the emperor, and make the Fang family further advanced.

According to the plot of the original novel, this road was opened up by the Fang family.

The final result was indeed as they expected. It only took Fang Ruoruo to get on board the Third Prince's boat. In the end, the Third Prince ascended the throne, and the Fang family rose rapidly.

But now...

After hearing what her husband said, Mrs. Fang subconsciously thought that the daughter he was talking about was Fang Ruoruo, so she asked:

"You said your daughter will have a great future. Could it be that the Third Prince has asked Your Majesty to grant him a marriage?"

When Fang Ruoruo heard this, she quickly lowered her head, and her fair and pretty face suddenly turned red.

"It's not Ruoruo, it's the other one, our biological child." Fang Zhenghua said, and then asked curiously, "Speaking of the other one, why haven't we seen her? Didn't we send someone to pick her up long ago? She has already arrived in the capital, why hasn't she returned home yet?"

Fang Zhenghua usually doesn't care about the affairs of the inner house and only leaves them to his wife to handle.

In matters like recognizing his biological daughter, the role he played was just to wait for his daughter to come back, then put on his fatherly airs and give a few words of warning and instructions, but he did not have much sense of involvement.

Therefore, more than two months had passed before he even remembered to ask why Shi Lidie didn't come back.

Who would have thought that after hearing this, Mrs. Fang and Fang Ruoruo both looked very strange.

Mrs. Fang was embarrassed, and Fang Ruru was embarrassed.

As soon as Mrs. Fang came back, she told Fang Ruoruo about the agreement to sever ties with Shi Lidie, and promised that no one would affect her status and that she would be the only daughter of the Earl of Loyalty and Bravery.

Fang Ruoruo was immersed in joy, but not long after, Fang Zhenghua brought back a bolt from the blue.

Mrs. Fang tightened her throat and asked:

"What happened to Shi Lidie? Why did the master say that she has great potential?"

Fang Zhenghua didn't notice anything was wrong with his wife and daughter, so he told them what he heard outside:

"She brought a kind of food called potatoes from Luoyun Town in the countryside. This food has very low requirements for the growing environment, but the yield is extremely high. It is called a divine food for disaster years. It is said that she spent two months to grow one acre for Your Majesty, and the yield was more than 5,000 kilograms."

"Because of this, His Majesty will reward her generously and allow her to attend the morning court with the court officials tomorrow."

After hearing this, Mrs. Fang was a little stunned for a moment.

She remembered the bet that Shi Lidie had made before, that within a month, the emperor could make her a county lady.

Now it seems that Shi Lidie clearly knew that the potatoes she grew would solve the disaster in Fengping County, so she dared to make such a confident promise.

But at that time, she was only concerned with despising this daughter who was not presentable, and wanted to protect Fang Ruoruo's status. She was also complacent about severing the relationship, but she didn't expect that she had pushed away the person who could bring glory to the Earl's Mansion.

But she didn't dare tell Fang Zhenghua about this, so she only said vaguely:

"Even if she has great potential, she may not be able to bring glory to our family."

"Why?" Fang Zhenghua was puzzled.

Mrs. Fang was not in a position to explain the agreement. Fang Ruoruo saw her mother's embarrassment and took the initiative to say:

"Father, my sister doesn't want to come back."

"She doesn't seem to want to interact with us, nor does she intend to return to her ancestral home."

After hearing this, Mrs. Fang immediately added:

"That's right, Master. Although Shi Lidie is our biological daughter, she grew up outside after all. She has no sense of belonging to the mansion and has always been reluctant to come back."

"I originally sent Grandma Gao to Luoyun Town to pick her up, but she didn't say a word and left Grandma Gao alone to come to the capital. Moreover, she didn't take the initiative to visit me when she came to the capital."

"Last time at the chrysanthemum viewing banquet at the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, Ruoruo had communicated with her. It is said that she publicly admitted that she was the mansion's daughter. Ruoruo thought she was willing to come back, so she gave her a break in the competition to prevent her from being too embarrassed and bringing discredit to the Earl of Loyalty and Bravery's mansion. But who knew that she would still disappear."

"Before that, I went to see her in person. She said she didn't want to come back. She also said that she was a village chief who could obtain the title without relying on the influence of her ancestors. She said that if our family saw her, we would have to bow our heads and salute her. She didn't care about the power and glory of our family."

"Master, listen to her. She has already said this. Do you think I should ask her to do this?"

So, the process of recognizing relatives dragged on for several months and there was no progress.

After hearing the whole story, Fang Zhenghua's face gradually darkened and he said:

"I don't care about what happened before, but she is now a favorite of His Majesty. First, she solved the food problem for the Northern Border Army and was named the village chief by His Majesty. Now she has solved the disaster in Fengping County. His Majesty will definitely reward her handsomely."

"Our two sons are already in their twenties and have accomplished nothing. If she comes back, she can let her pass on the credit to her two brothers so that they can find a way out."

"Ruoruo is the future consort of the Third Prince, there is no doubt about that, but the Third Prince is destined to have more than one woman. If he ascends the throne in the future, his harem will be filled with beauties. Ruoruo is not qualified just by relying on their childhood sweetheart relationship."

"But if Shi Lidie helps, and the two brothers can gain a firm foothold in the court, our family will have real power and a say, which will not only allow the Earl's Mansion to move forward, but also provide support for Ruoruo in the harem."

"In this way, do you understand?"
