"Some things cannot be taken, but some things should be taken back." Qin Yan said.

Qian Fengping also nodded and took out an account book that she had kept over the years.

Ever since the child's father passed away, the clansmen came to borrow or rent some things and took them away.

If she hadn't always stuck to her bottom line and refused to back down, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to keep her house and land.

Fang Tong flipped through the booklet and had an idea in his mind.

He didn't know anything else, but he knew that if Qin Yan wanted to continue taking the imperial examinations in the future, he couldn't completely break with his clan.

At least not like him and the Fang family.

Otherwise, the rumors outside would ruin Qin Yan's future.

But it is impossible to get along closely with the Qin family directly.

You have to be tough, but also a little gentle.

In the evening, Fang Tong took Qin Yan away. Fang Nanzhi looked at their backs and shook her head: "Dad is still too impatient. It looks like he's going to the battlefield."

Qian Fengping was both angry and amused, and scolded: "Zhizhi, don't be disrespectful."

"Hehe!" Fang Nanzhi smiled innocently.

Then the mother and daughter, along with Fang Yin, also went out.

Go to Tiezhu's house.

That’s right, Tiezhu’s marriage is settled.

Yesterday, we asked a matchmaker to come to the house to test the waters, and the two families exchanged tokens, and the marriage was settled.

If Qian Fengping had not been in the provincial capital at the time, she should have gone to the girl's family to talk to her, and there would have been no need to hire a matchmaker.

No matter what, my grandson is getting married soon.

Uncle Tiezhu was very happy and specially invited Qian Fengping and her family to dinner today.

The old man invested a lot of money. Knowing that Fang Nanzhi liked to eat big geese, he asked his grandson to buy one.

Stew the goose!

Maybe it’s because there have been so many happy events recently, and the old man has been insisting on exercising every day, so his illness has really improved a lot, and he can move a few times by himself with the help of the wall.

At this moment, he raised the bowl and said, "Mrs. Qian, it's all thanks to you. Otherwise, Tiezhu, that silly boy, would have been playing the game for who knows how long. This bowl of wine, this old man, has to toast you."

Qian Fengping quickly stood up and said modestly: "Grandpa Ma, I don't deserve it. You are the elder, and I should respect you. No, Grandpa Ma, you are not well yet, so you can't drink."

"Yes, people who have had a stroke cannot drink alcohol. Don't worry, mom, I have changed it to water and added some sugar." Fang Nanzhi replied while gnawing on a goose leg.

Mr. Ma was even happier when he saw the little girl like this.

He likes honest children, and besides, this little girl is fair and cute.

His cloudy gaze returned to Qian Fengping. "Mrs. Qian, you are a blessed family. Not only you, but Tongzi as well! Your family is blessed with great fortune. My grandson Tiezhu is a fool, with only a bit of strength. I'll have to trouble you to take care of him in the future."

He saw it.

The Fang Tong family are all capable people. Not to mention their business, just look at Qin Yan, the child who has topped the exam twice in a row. He is sure to have a bright future.

Qian Fengping is a kind person, and Fang Nanzhi doesn't look like a bad person. Didn't she say she was learning medicine?

It must be right for his grandson to follow them.

The meaning behind these words was too strong, so Qian Fengping followed up with a solemn comment: "I don't deserve your praise, but as for the relationship between Tongzi and Tiezhu, no matter what happens in the future, I will never forget Tiezhu and Erwa."

After hearing this, Mr. Ma became even happier.

He held a bowl of sugar water and drank it all in one gulp, looking extremely heroic.

When Qian Fengping saw this, she couldn't be vague and had a drink with him.

But she didn't drink often, and she choked unexpectedly. Fang Nanzhi quickly freed up one hand and patted her mother on the back.

Tiezhu scratched his head and wanted to toast his sister-in-law as well.

"Sister-in-law, hey, thank you for introducing the girl to me. I, I like her very much."

As soon as these words were spoken, Erwa and the others nearby burst into laughter.

"Okay, since you like her, treat her well in the future. If she bullies me after we get married, I, as her sister-in-law, will take care of her."

Qian Fengping also smiled.

"Yes!" Tiezhu agreed happily.

Mr. Ma nodded and said, "We should take care of it!"

Then Erwa and Goudan stood up one by one to toast their sister-in-law.

His words hinted that, sister-in-law, you have to treat us equally. Tiezhu is getting married soon, so please take care of our affairs.

Fang Nanzhi was unhappy and stood in front of her mother.

"Uncles, my mother can't drink much. She can't drink anymore." She frowned and added awkwardly, "Otherwise, I'll drink it for her!"

Second uncle can’t do that. He can’t drink alcohol when he’s getting medical treatment.

Seeing her righteous look, everyone at the table was overjoyed.

A little guy as small as a bean is expected to block the wine for others?

If Qian Fengping and his friends had a lively meal, Fang Tong and his son felt awkward.

Patriarch Qin's family is wealthy, and the food they prepare is definitely better than Tiezhu's family.

But it’s the people who are eating who feel awkward.

Qin Gaofei and his wife sat with him. Although they were obviously impatient, they had to put on a smile.

Feeling threatened by his father's gaze once again, Qin Gaofei had no choice but to greet him: "Fang Tong~~Brother, well, don't be polite, eat more. I bought this osmanthus cake after queuing for a long time at Yipinzhai. You haven't heard of Yipinzhai, right? It's in the capital..."

Qin Gaofei got stuck midway through his words.

How could Fang Tong not know? Didn't he also go to the capital?

Patriarch Qin stared at his son without saying a word. After just two sentences, his true nature was exposed. Did he have to show off?

As for Fang Tong, he was already stunned by the words "Brother Fang Tong".

I felt goose bumps all over my body, as if bugs were crawling over me. It was so uncomfortable.

The two of them had fought a lot in the past, so why did their attitude change so suddenly?

It was Clan Leader Qin who coughed twice and smoothed things over: "Fang Tong, you are Yan'er's father now. Yan'er is where he is today thanks to you. As the Clan Leader, I offer a toast to you."

"Uncle Qin, I can't drink this wine."

It was Patriarch Qin's condescending way of speaking that made Fang Tong feel more comfortable.

"I'm Brother Yan's father, it's my duty to support his education."

Old Master Qin's face was full of wrinkles, and he couldn't express any emotion. He just nodded and said, "Yes, but Qin Yan is also a descendant of my Qin family. I didn't know before that his leg was healed and he was so smart. Otherwise, my family would definitely cultivate him well."

He suspected that Qin Yan's leg had healed long ago.

I've been pretending to be disabled to deceive them.

Qin Yan raised his eyelids, and a hint of sarcasm flashed through his mind.

What do you mean by cultivating him well? Before he injured his leg, his clan bullied him a lot when he was young.

"Uncle Qin, you are the head of the family and have a lot of things to do. How can you pay special attention to a child? But your grandson is also very capable. He will become a virgin in the future." Fang Tong smiled.

I don't even want to cultivate this crop.

"Shucai is a diligent child, but not as hardworking as Yan'er. He passed the imperial examination at such a young age, which is a great joy for the whole clan..." said Clan Leader Qin, stroking his beard.

Qin Shucai, who had been sitting quietly in the corner, suddenly stood up and raised his wine glass: "Qin Yan, I, your brother, would like to congratulate you on winning the first place in the high school entrance examination."
