Fox Demon Jade Face
Chapter 57 Something happened
"Mom! I'm back!"
In Ducheng, in a courtyard that was quite exquisitely decorated, Fang Quan pushed open the gate of the courtyard carrying a whole basket of bamboo shoots on his back. He shouted loudly and put down the bamboo basket on his back.
"Quan'er, you're finally back!"
Just as Fang Quan's voice disappeared, a middle-aged woman walked out of the room in the yard, holding the door frame. Her eyes, which had been somewhat doubtful, suddenly became bright.
"Mom, look, these are the bamboo shoots I picked from the bamboo forest today. I will cook them for you tonight!"
Fang Quan saw his mother holding on to the door frame, so he quickly ran over to support her, then pointed at the bamboo basket of bamboo shoots and said, he knew that this was his mother's favorite food.
"Well, Quan'er, let's put those things aside for now. Let's go inside. I have something to tell you."
The woman looked at her son who was supporting her, then turned to look at the bamboo shoots she had just picked. She hesitated for a long time, and finally sighed, touched Fang Quan's hand, and said to him.
"Hmm? Okay, Mom, let's go inside first."
When Fang Quan heard what his mother said, he was a little confused for a moment. In the past few days, his mother always smiled happily when she saw him come back and helped him pick the bamboo shoots.
But today, as soon as he came back, he noticed that his mother was acting strangely, but he didn't ask much. But now, his mother took the initiative to find him.
After thinking for a moment, he helped his mother back to the room and sat down. No matter what, they had to sit down and talk first.
"Alas, the Song family has come again..."
The woman no longer looked at Fang Quan, but looked at the ground with a sigh, and an unspeakable pain surged in her heart.
"The Song family..."
When Fang Quan heard what her mother said, she already knew what had happened.
"They killed my father, and now they have the nerve to come to our house!"
Fang Quan recalled what happened before, and for a moment he gritted his teeth. The Song family was a big family in Ducheng, but they were secretly reselling monsters. Behind it was an operating model similar to the Tianxianyuan hundreds of years ago.
Because of their great power in Ducheng, people here don't dare to spread this kind of thing. And it is said that there seems to be someone from the Dao League behind the Song family...
However, leaving all this aside, the conflict between Fang Quan's family and the Song family is enough to make Fang Quan full of hostility towards the Song family.
The reason is simple, it is because two years ago, Fang Quan's father, Fang Guyuan, was a famous monster catcher in Ducheng. With his natural special perception of monsters and his extremely clear understanding of their habits, he was able to catch them with every accuracy.
He also has a good relationship with the head of the Song family, and is also involved in capturing young and weak female monsters in the Song family.
However, later, the Song family's affairs were exposed and attracted the attention of the Taoist Alliance. However, the Song family at that time pushed Fang Guyuan out. Due to the Song family's secret manipulation, Fang Guyuan was successfully made a scapegoat and was finally executed in the Taoist Alliance.
Later, the Song family continued to do this business, but without Fang Guyuan's special abilities, their efficiency in catching monsters dropped visibly.
Therefore, they thought of Fang Guyuan's son, Fang Quan. After secretly confirming that Fang Quan also had the same ability as Fang Guyuan, they began to pester Fang Quan.
However, in Fang Quan's eyes, monsters should not be treated like that. When his father Fang Guyuan helped the Song family, he was very dissatisfied with his father's decision and even had several quarrels with his father.
So, no matter how the Song family lobbied, he ignored them.
"Quan'er, this time is different from before...you need to think about it carefully..."
Looking at her angry son in front of her, how could the woman not know the resentment contained in him? It was not that she was unreasonable, but that the Song family brought bad news when they came this time.
"Mom! You know that the Song family has done some evil things, and they will suffer retribution sooner or later. I felt it when my father did those things. Now don't even think about letting them use the abilities passed down in our family to do such bad things!"
Fang Quan looked at his mother. At this moment, he couldn't understand why his mother, whose attitude was obviously tougher than his before, was shaken this time and even wanted to persuade him!
"Mom...can you tell me...why?"
Finally, facing his mother's guilty gaze, Fang Quan softened his heart. After he calmed down and thought about it carefully, he discovered the problem. If nothing important had happened, his mother would not have changed her position.
"Wu...they...Xin'er...Xin'er and the others have..."
After mustering up her last bit of courage to tell the story, the woman collapsed on her seat like a deflated ball, as if she had done something she deeply regretted.
"What! My sister..."
Fang Quan felt like he was struck by lightning. At this moment, he finally understood why his mother suddenly changed her position.
"How dare they do this!"
Instead of being calm, Fang Quan became even angrier!
His own sister, who had been very good to him since childhood, was now in someone else's hands. How could he be rational?
"Where's Brother Liu? How's Brother Liu?"
Fang Quan suddenly asked his mother again, his sister Fang Xin married into the Liu family, although the situation of the Liu family was relatively ordinary, but the eldest brother of the Liu family was really good to them, otherwise they would not have let Fang Xin marry into the Liu family with ease.
And now, Fang Xin is in trouble, so Brother Liu is also...
"I, your mother, don't know. These are just a show of force from the Song family members today... all for you..."
The woman stopped talking after this. She now focused her attention on her son. The final decision on what to do now still lies with her son Fang Quan.
"Mom... I understand. I will go to the Song family tomorrow..."
Fang Quan finally lowered his head helplessly, but his hands were still clenched tightly. If the other party had not found his weakness, he would never have surrendered like this.
"Mom, I'm going to cook first..."
Fang Quan adjusted his mood, turned around and went to the yard and started picking up the bamboo shoots in the bamboo basket.
Then he went to the kitchen, and after a long while he came back to the room with a few plates of bamboo shoots and other dishes.
But today, the room that should have been filled with the sound of mother and son talking and laughing was surprisingly quiet...
