Beautiful Peasant Girl: The Young Marquis's Beloved

Fang Yu stayed at the Chang family for more than half an hour before leaving. The Chang family politely invited him to have dinner, but he declined on the grounds that he had just returned from the south and needed to report everything to Fang's father.

Unlike when he came here, with a full mind full of calculations, Fang Yu was filled with fear on his way back.

He never thought that his luck was so bad that the two little girls he fell in love with at first sight when he returned to Yongshun were actually the daughters of a third-rank general's mansion.

That's right! Chang Hongxuan told Fang Yu about Liu Xu's identity, not to help him, but because he knew the Fang family's way of doing things too well. If Liu Xu was just his Chang family's adopted daughter, the Fang family would not do anything on the surface, but it would be hard to say what they would do secretly.

As the saying goes, you don't have to worry about thieves stealing, you have to worry about thieves thinking about it. Fang Yu is a man who is even more vicious than his father Fang Shaohui. It is not a good thing to be targeted by him.

After seeing Fang Yu off, the servant came to announce that it was time to eat, and they headed towards the dining room.

On the way, Chang Yifei and his two siblings started chatting in low voices again.

"Hmph, he got away with it, Duoduo. You should have hit him harder back then. At least he should have broken his legs." Chang Yifei said.

"I'm just afraid of causing trouble for Junior Sister. However, apart from the accidental injury on his face, although the other parts of his body are not visible, they will cause him pain for several days."

That man looked at her and her junior sister with such disgusting eyes, how could she simply beat him up and be done with it?

Upon hearing this, Chang Yifei gave Han Duoduo a thumbs up and praised her for a good job.

"Why are you in such a hurry? This guy is obviously a repeat offender. Once this is over, we can find another opportunity to destroy him."

Hearing Liu Xu say this, Han Duoduo and Chang Yifei both shuddered.

I didn't expect the cruelest one was here.

Chang Hongxuan heard this in front and couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

However, as a godfather, he thinks it is good for his little girl to be like this, so that she will not be bullied outside in the future!

When they arrived at the dining room, Su Bijun was already there, and also waiting there were Aunt Han and the Second Master Chang.

This was the second time Liu Xu had met the second brother of the Chang family. His features were somewhat similar to Chang Yifei's, but overall he looked more like his biological mother, Aunt Han, gentle and refined.

I heard that he was a scholar at the age of sixteen, but he stopped there because he was too obsessed with calligraphy and painting. This reminded Liu Xu of the story of Zhongyong.

No one mentioned the matter in the front hall. It was not the first time for them to meet each other, so they greeted each other and took their seats.

The dishes on the table were very exquisite, which was enough to show how much Mrs. Chang, Su Bijun, valued her daughter.

There was little talking at the dinner table, unlike at Liu's house where people chatted while eating.

After dinner, Liu Xu and the other person returned to their own yard. They had been traveling for most of the day and had no time to rest in the afternoon, so they fell asleep quickly after going to bed.

On the other side, in the Fang family study, the atmosphere was not very good at this time.

Fang Shaohui, the head of the Fang family, sat at the top, his face livid; the eldest son Fang Zhuo sat at the bottom, drinking tea with a calm expression on his face. Fang Yu knelt on the ground obediently.

Fang Yu was unlucky. He returned home in the afternoon with a nervous heart and had not yet figured out how to explain to his father and brother.

As a result, as soon as he entered the house, he was bumped into by his eldest brother Fang Zhuo.

Fang Zhuo saw the wound on Fang Yu's face and his obviously evasive look, so he frowned and asked, "What happened? Who hurt you?"

Fang Yu hesitantly recounted what had happened.

After hearing this, Fang Zhuo's face darkened and he angrily scolded, "You! Tell me yourself, how many times have my father and I warned you about this? How many messes have we cleaned up for you? Do you think the Fang family has too much money and lives too well?"

Fang Yu trembled when he was yelled at. He was indignant but did not dare to say anything.

On the surface, Fang Yu is in charge of half of the Fang family's assets, but in fact, the person in charge is his brother Fang Zhuo, who is six years older than him.

If Fang Shaohui and Fang Yu are vipers, then Fang Zhuo is a fox. Compared to the arrogance and viciousness of Fang Yu and his son, people like Fang Zhuo should be guarded against more carefully.

The Fang family originally started out in the gray industry, but in recent years they have begun to transform into formal business. It was Fang Zhuo's idea.

Of course, the original gray industry is not abandoned, but many of it has moved to the dark. At least if something happens, the Fang family will not be easily dragged into it.

Fang Yu was as afraid of Fang Zhuo as he was of his father Fang Shaohui.

"You have quite a few people in your backyard, but it's not as many as the ones in your home. You insisted... Now you've hit a wall! Miss of a third-rank general's mansion! Don't go out in the next few months. Otherwise, if anything happens, don't blame me, your brother, for sacrificing my relatives for the sake of justice!"

Otherwise, Fang Zhuo is the heir! This statement hit the plan of Liu Xu and others.

But... it would be harder to keep a man like Fang Yu in check for a few days, or even months? It would probably be harder than killing him!

Fang Yu hurriedly said: "Brother, I've already gone to apologize, why won't you let me out!"

Fang Zhuo looked at his biological brother and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was not stupid, he just thought about things too simply.

"If you think you're unlucky, just get out!" Fang Zhuo was too lazy to explain to him.

After dinner, Fang Zhuo told his father Fang Shaohui about the matter, and the scene at the beginning happened.

After all, the older you are, the wiser you are. As soon as Fang Zhuo said it, Fang Shaohui understood.

That's right, a young lady from a general's mansion was offended and wanted to pass it over just by giving some cloth and jewelry. Even a family of a slightly more prominent position in Shunxing Prefecture would not do that.

If Liu Xu knew what they were thinking, she would definitely say, "You think too much!"

She had no awareness of being a young lady from a general's mansion. She wanted to deal with Fang Yu simply because she disliked him and wanted to get rid of this evil for the people.

The Fang family father and son stayed in the study for half an hour. Finally, Fang Yu was punished according to the family rules and was carried directly back to his own yard.

Fang Shaohui and his son Fang Zhuo decided to go to the house in person the next day, bringing generous gifts and apologizing again on behalf of their youngest son.

Liu Xu and the others didn't know all this, as she and Han Duoduo had already fallen asleep.

In the study room of Yuejun Garden, Chang Hongxuan and Chang Yifei were still talking.

It was mainly about the oil mill and the noodle shop. Both father and son were not stupid, not to mention how much wealth these two things could bring them, but just based on the drawings of the two sets of equipment given by Liu Xu, once they were handed over to Chang Yifeng, I'm afraid it wouldn't take long before the position of Minister of Industry would be in his pocket.

"Dad, my younger sister gave this to us. Don't forget to let my elder brother mention her contribution." Chang Yifei pursed his lips.

"Silly boy, you probably don't understand Baoer's intention. If she wanted the credit, she would not give it to you but directly to Lord Xu." Chang Hongxuan said with a smile.

Seeing that his son hadn't figured it out, he added, "Bao'er thinks things through more clearly than you do. When I gave you the drawing of the noodle making machine, didn't I remind you that it was made by an accidental craftsman, and then you figured it out on your own?"

Chang Yifei nodded, "Yes, wasn't it the case that the previous emperor was seriously ill and the situation was unclear? Now the new emperor is that..."

"Precisely because of that person, we cannot reveal that this was your younger sister's idea. Unless... you want Baoer to enter the palace!" Chang Hongxuan interrupted his son and said directly.

"How is that possible! Dad, my little sister is only seven years old!" Chang Yifei's eyes widened at his father's words.

"Yes, but you forgot that the current master is only twelve years old!"

This time, he actually praised Liu Xu on the day of his enthronement and also rewarded Xu Ruolan. It is hard to say whether he had other intentions.

Liu Donglai is now a third-rank official, and he is still young. His career will definitely not stop here. If that person is interested, I am afraid...
