Quick Wear: The Wronged One Becomes Rebellious
Chapter 55 Who is Meng Jiangnu crying for? 06
The summer of that year was exceptionally hot, and Fan Xiliang was ordered around by Mr. Meng, who liked to assign all kinds of work to Fan Xiliang.
As a result, Yuanbao, who had always been favored by Mr. Meng, was almost left with nothing to do. He was very dissatisfied with Fan Xiliang for stepping on him to climb up.
To make something happen, you may need to be fully prepared and take advantage of the favorable conditions, but to destroy something, it often only takes one or two words of provocation from someone.
Yuanbao had Fan Xiliang run around outside and was tanned like a black monkey. He no longer looked like the handsome scholar he had been when they first met. His eyes were dark and his mouth showed two rows of big white teeth, just like the black Kunlun slaves in the northern city. He looked even worse than the other servants in the mansion.
As for Mr. Meng and his servant Yuanbao, after staying in the shade this summer, they not only gained weight but also became whiter.
As autumn approached, Mr. Meng, who was as handsome as a steamed bun, began to look down on Fan Xiliang. Recently, he was even unwilling to look at him, which made Fan Xiliang feel a serious sense of crisis.
He secretly went to find Cai Qing, only then did he realize that he was almost out of the candidate list for Mr. Meng's son-in-law because of his damaged appearance.
He was extremely terrified. He worked so hard and put in so much effort, but in the end he was kicked away. How could this be possible?
Under Cai Qing's advice, he used all the money he earned from hard work to buy skin care products that only women would use.
A small box of moisturizing cream directly used up most of his savings. After a long summer of traveling, he couldn't even afford to buy new clothes. He was still wearing the short clothes that Cai Qing bought for him when he first entered the mansion.
Fan Xiliang thought bitterly that Cai Qing was still good to him and had always been loyal to him. The Miss Meng had never even glanced at him, and after he turned black, he couldn't even see her face. Even the fat old man Meng despised him, and yet he was still ordered by Yuanbao to run errands outside in the sun all day.
It was really infuriating. When he took over the Meng family, he would definitely not look at the young lady more. Just like she didn't like him, Fan Xiliang also wanted the young lady to taste the feeling of being ignored.
An autumn rain took away the lingering heat in the air, and the autumn wind brought a hint of coolness, and Gu Li was willing to go out and play again.
After being washed by an autumn rain, the leaves of the lush ivy were so green that they looked like they could drip water. Gu Li glanced at the east wall for a few more times, then went to the backyard, fanning herself.
Not only do she grow vegetables for daily consumption in her backyard, she also grows several fruit trees.
Bunches of purple grapes hung on the vines, red fruits hung on the peach trees, and the little orange lanterns on the persimmon trees attracted the birds to chirp and circle around, unwilling to leave.
Gu Li's personal rattan chair was brought out again and placed under the lush grape vine rack. Gu Li lazily lay down on it and closed her eyes to take a nap.
Cai Qing has been feeling a little irritated lately, with blisters piled up at the corners of her mouth. It hurts so much that she has to take a breath before she can even say a few more words.
"Miss, the weather is cool, you should walk around more. Lying here all the time will make you lazy!"
"I'm tired and don't want to move!"
Cai Qing's mouth twitched. She felt sleepy in spring, tired in autumn, and nappy in summer. And don't even think about going out in winter. All year round, she had plenty of reasons to stay in the girls' building. How could Fan Lang improve his relationship with her?
Fan Xiliang heard from somewhere that drinking milk and washing face with milk can whiten skin. In order to make himself white again, Fan Xiliang drank three bowls of fishy goat milk every day, and cleaned his face with goat milk every morning and evening, making his whole body smell fishy.
It makes people not want to get close to it.
Mr. Meng's right-hand man was once again replaced by Yuanbao.
Just when everyone thought that Fan Xiliang had completely fallen out of favor, Fan Xiliang took the initiative to find Meng Yuanwai and expressed his willingness to marry into Meng Yuanwai's family.
Since ancient times, few men are willing to marry into a woman's family. Even in poor families, they are unwilling to give up their sons, because sons are the foundation of their lives and carry the mission of carrying on the family line.
Except for those who cannot make ends meet, or those who are idle scoundrels or incompetent people, men from good families generally will not marry into the wife's family.
But Fan Xiliang is willing.
He said that his father and mother were both gone, and his eldest grandfather lived with his uncles and aunts, so he wanted to use the boys from their family to replace the children from his uncles and aunts in the corvée labor quota.
Otherwise, if his three older brothers had all been conscripted and he was the only one left, how could the yamen runners come to arrest him?
He was sold by his only remaining relative.
He told Mr. Meng that he had no family anymore, and as long as the Meng family did not despise him, he was willing to stay in the Meng Mansion and work like a slave, treat the young lady well, and provide for the Meng family's two elders in their old age.
To put it bluntly, a son-in-law is just a household slave with a nicer title. The child born will take the woman's surname, and the man does not have much say in the woman's family.
Mr. Meng was overjoyed. He had thought about finding a son-in-law for his daughter, but he had never had the courage to ask Fan Xiliang to marry into the family.
He came on his own initiative, which was beyond Mr. Meng's expectation.
"Do you want to talk to your grandfather?"
Fan Xiliang quickly refused, "My grandfather wanted me to take my cousin's place in the corvée service, but I escaped. If I go back like this, I will definitely be caught and have to take the place of another cousin in the service."
As if he didn't want Mr. Meng to doubt his character, Fan Xiliang said, "My eldest brother left a child before he went to serve in the army. He was raised by my grandfather. Even without me, my family line will not be extinct."
Mr. Meng nodded, and looking at Fan Xiliang's handsome face which was gradually turning pale, the last trace of worry in his heart disappeared.
He asked Fan Xiliang to go back and rest first, and he trotted off to discuss the marriage with his daughter.
"Instead of being randomly assigned a marriage partner by the official media, it is better to let Fan Xiliang marry into my Meng Mansion. I will definitely treat him as my son."
Mr. Meng talked for a long time but his daughter's expression didn't change much. He was unsure about what she was thinking.
"Ayao, what do you think?" Youshi also thought that Fan Xiliang's marriage was reliable. Even if she told others that she was marrying her daughter, but there was no one at home, she could let her daughter and son-in-law live at home.
As long as their precious daughter can stay with them.
Gu Li was stared at by two pairs of eager eyes, and she couldn't say anything to refuse. "Everything is up to my father."
Mr. Meng was overjoyed. "Then we have to quickly choose a good day and get this done."
Mr. Meng was worried that the Fan family would find out that Fan Xiliang was here and would come to cause trouble. He was also worried that Fan Xiliang would go back on his word.
As long as his daughter got married, the official matchmaker would not come to register the marriage. Because if his daughter did not get married at the right age, she would have to register her name in the government office, which would be a great obstacle to Mr. Meng's career.
Mr. Meng happily took his wife to find someone to arrange a date. He ran so hard that his whole body was shaking, but he was still very fast.
Gu Li looked at the backs of the two elders as they left together, and thought to herself that the happier she could make them, the better.
This is also part of the reason why Fan Xiliang and Yu Caiqing are still alive and well.
