Farmhouse life after traveling back to ancient times
Chapter 43: Insolent
Lu Fanghai drank alone, feeling unhappy. Thinking about what had happened to his family in the past six months, he felt really angry.
But who can be blamed for this?
We can only blame the Lu family, who have evil intentions and want to get rid of them as soon as possible.
She has now been thrown into jail and received the punishment she deserves, but her family, as victims, cannot escape the impact of this incident.
Fan Chengyi was also speechless. He thought he was saving people, and doing good without expecting anything in return was also a chivalrous act.
But he didn't expect that it would cause Qiao'er to lose her marriage and indirectly anger Fang to death.
She saved someone's life, but now she has to face rumors and gossip. Was what she did a good thing or a bad thing?
But if you ask yourself, if you encounter such a thing again next time, Fan Chengyi will still go into the water to save people. No matter what happens later, that's too late.
Human life is at stake, and there is no time to think about it.
After figuring it out, he felt relieved. Fan Chengyi raised his glass and wanted to have another game with Lu Fanghai.
Lu Fanghai is also a simple and honest person. Although he was unable to come to his senses at the moment, it has already come to this, and he cannot repay kindness with enmity and push the blame onto Fan Chengyi.
After all, what does it have to do with him?
He just saved people.
"I was thinking the wrong thing just now. You saved my sister's life. I can't blame you no matter what. I was being unreasonable. Don't take it to heart."
"Brother Lu, this matter was caused by my lack of consideration and failure to deal with the aftermath, but it is not completely unrelated to me. Brother Lu, rest assured, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter."
After Fan Chengyi finished speaking, he raised his head, drank the wine in the glass, and was about to leave.
Strolling all the way back home, Fan Chengyi came up with an idea.
After returning home, he went straight to find Fan Zhao and told him the whole story. Fan Zhao also wanted to kick him.
However, seeing that his face was swollen from being beaten by Lu Fanghai, and feeling sorry for his son, she didn't bother with him.
"Although you are not responsible for this matter, you did not handle it properly. To be honest, the Lu family's incident was caused by your reckless behavior."
Fan Chengyi nodded in agreement.
"What are your plans now?"
Fan Chengyi took a step back and knelt in front of Fan Zhao:
"The younger sister of the Lu family was cut off from marriage, and the old mother of the Lu family died of anger due to rumors. It was all due to my son's negligence. Now I want to make amends. I beg my father and mother to send a matchmaker to the Lu family to propose marriage. I am willing to compensate the younger sister of the Lu family and give her a good marriage."
Fan Zhao snorted and sneered, "You really look down on the Lu family. Any family with a bit of integrity would be beaten out by you if they came to propose marriage like this."
Fan Chengyi stuck to his guns and tried every means to persuade Fan Zhao to give in. Seeing that Fan Zhao refused to give in, Fan Chengyi went to ask his mother for help. However, Mrs. Fan was even more unwilling.
"She was rejected by someone, and my mother was pissed to death, what does it have to do with you? If you save someone, you will lose your marriage. I'm afraid that all the unmarried girls will jump into the river. Who would be willing to save them? How did you come up with such a corrupt idea? I think you should not take the imperial examination, lest you talk nonsense and cause greater trouble and affect your family."
Mrs. Fan scolded Fan Chengyi sarcastically and kicked him out of the main room.
Fan Chengyi tossed and turned in bed at night, and early the next morning he ran to the door of Lu's shop with dark circles under his eyes.
Du Wenxiu got up early to open the door, took down the door panel and was startled when he saw him.
"Master Fan, why are you here so early?"
Fan Chengyi bowed to her and moved his lips slightly, as if he didn't know how to start.
Du Wenxiu saw that he seemed to have something to hide. Thinking back to the way Lu Fanghai had beaten him yesterday, he might have scared his family.
Seeing him standing in front of the store like this, there were many people getting up early in the morning to do business, and many people looked at his half-swollen face.
Du Wenxiu waved for him to come into the store, moved a chair for him to sit on, and then went to call Lu Fanghai.
At this time, Qiao'er also turned around and walked out with her hair tied up. When she saw Fan Chengyi there, she was so scared that she quickly hid inside.
Fan Chengyi didn't see Qiao'er coming, but called Du Wenxiu and whispered his plan to Du Wenxiu.
After saying that, he looked at Du Wenxiu's face expectantly.
Du Wenxiu smiled gently, took a step towards Fan Chengyi, and asked softly:
"Master Fan feels that he has ruined my aunt's marriage, so he wants to compensate her with himself, right?"
Fan Chengyi wanted to say no, but he lowered his head, not knowing how to put it.
Du Wenxiu turned around, picked up a broom from the corner, and started hitting him, cursing as he did so:
"You are such a scoundrel. You have read so much of the sage's books that you can't even think of any stupid idea. Even if my little aunt stays at home for her whole life, she can't marry into your family in such a humiliating way..."
Fan Chengyi jumped around after being beaten, but instead of going out, he hid in the inner courtyard. Qiao'er, who was hiding nearby, was seen by him and her face turned red instantly. She turned around and hurried back to the inner courtyard.
When Du Wenxiu saw his aunt, he knew that she must have heard about this matter. He became even angrier and used all his strength.
He accidentally swung the broom at Fan Chengyi's face, leaving a bloody cut.
Seeing that he had accidentally disfigured someone, Du Wenxiu hesitated. At this time, Lu Fanghai came out.
When Fan Chengyi left last night, he had a look of guilt on his face. Lu Fanghai just said that he was indeed regretful and kept talking to Du Wenxiu about it. It couldn't be said that he was to blame, but that it was Qiao'er's fate.
Now that I had beaten the man and vented my anger, I still felt that I had gone too far and was very upset.
When I got up early and went out, I saw Qiao'er running from the front to the back with her head down, and I could hear Du Wenxiu scolding her. I hurried out to see what was going on.
Seeing Fan Chengyi in such a miserable state, he was even more confused.
Seeing him coming, Fan Chengyi knew he couldn't beat him, so he just stood there quietly, and Du Wenxiu also stopped.
"You've come at the right time. Get your damn brother out of here and don't let him dirty my land. He comes here to insult me so early in the morning."
Du Wenxiu was furious and glared at Lu Fanghai.
Lu Fanghai didn't expect that he had just shown up and did nothing, but was scolded by Du Wenxiu. He hurriedly pulled Fan Chengyi to ask about the situation.
When Fan Chengyi told the story, Lu Fanghai couldn't help but give him a slap:
"You thief, you think my family is a shameless pauper."
Seeing Du Wenxiu with her hands on her hips, glaring at the two of them with a broom in her hand, Lu Fanghai hurriedly put on a smile and pulled Fan Chengyi out, telling him bluntly not to pollute his wife's eyes.
When they got to the street, he let him go and said with a smile, "I thought you were going to give my family an explanation. You came up with such a weird idea after just one night. You really deserve to be beaten."
Seeing that he had a kind attitude and was not as aggressive as Du Wenxiu, Fan Chengyi became bolder.
"Brother Lu, is there anything wrong with my idea? Why is sister-in-law so angry?"
Seeing that he really didn't understand, Lu Fanghai put his arm around his shoulders and explained to him in detail:
"Just because you saved my sister doesn't mean she has to marry you. Waiting for you to marry her is just to save the man's face. Even if it's a way to repay a favor, my family isn't extinct yet, so it's not my sister's turn to marry you."
