Fang Tong grinned and said, "We're just fellow villagers. What are you talking about buying? Just exchange it for wheat seeds."

Everyone was stunned, mainly because no one in the village had been able to take advantage of Fang Tong for so many years.

He suddenly became so easy to talk to that everyone was a little uncomfortable with it.

"But, we don't have many left at home. If we need to exchange them, each family can only exchange one kilogram of seeds at most." Fang Tong said this in advance.

In fact, it was not that he was generous, but the main reason was that the imperial envoy hinted before he left that the wheat left behind also needed to be tried and planted.

The county magistrate also greeted and wanted to take away a portion. Since it was all a trial planting, the people of Mushan Village must not be left out.

So, just change it, it will be good for him.

As for why he didn't sell it to the villagers, he thought that if his family really made something in the future, reputation would be important, so it was a way to make good friends with the villagers in advance.

"Really? Tongzi, you are so loyal and considerate." Cheng Dafu was the first to say happily.

"Yes, Fang Tong has been a good kid since he was little. Among his generation, he is the most capable and loyal one!"

An old man also started to praise.

Everyone hurried to follow, wishing they could become brothers with Fang Tong.

It was as if the people who shook their heads when Fang Lao San was mentioned before were not them.

Fang Tong was very pleased to hear the compliment. Feeling satisfied, he said a few humble words and sent everyone away.

When the yard quieted down, Tiezhu reminded: "Tongzi, we don't have many seeds left. If everyone in the village exchanges them, I'm afraid there won't be enough for our own fields."

You know, they all farmed the land together.

The Qin family, Tiezhu family, Goudan family, Erwa family, and Sun Dacheng family have a total of about one hundred acres of land.

"It's okay, I saved it in advance." Fang Tong patted his shoulder.

Tiezhu gave him a thumbs-up. He was indeed a man of great talent, and he was very thoughtful. But how could he have hidden it secretly when the yamen runners were watching him?

Of course Fang Tong didn’t keep it privately, but his daughter had a system god, so he bought it from the god.

He didn't say much, but immediately went back to the house, grabbed a bag, hitched up the carriage, and was about to leave: "Well, Tiezhu, I'm going back to the capital. Bring your sister-in-law back in a couple of days for the wedding banquet. Let Erwa take care of the banquet for you."

Tiezhu waved at him and said goodbye.

He knew that Tongzi had packed his luggage a few days ago and was ready to return to the city at any time.

These days, I have been talking about what my wife and children have eaten every day. I wonder if it rained in the village but not in the city, and I don’t know if my wife has lost weight.

Tiezhu and the others gave me goosebumps. We haven't seen each other for just ten or twenty days, is it really that serious?

How did they become like this?

In Erwa's words, Fang Tong was finished and was completely trapped.

Huai'an Prefecture City.

Fang Nanzhi was in the Prince's Mansion, taking out the needle carefully with a stern face.

"My Lord, how do you feel?"

she asked.

For a doctor, observation, listening, questioning and palpation are all important.

"My arms can move, but my legs are still a little strained." The prince half leaned on the bed, his eyes majestic.

Through acupuncture, he has become able to speak fluently, so he is willing to speak in public.

"Don't worry, it takes time to remove the lesion. Everything is recovering now, so it's fine." Fang Nanzhi acted like a doctor and comforted him in a serious tone.

You know, a patient's mental well-being is also conducive to recovery.

"Well, thank you very much, Doctor Fang." The prince nodded.

Fang Nanzhi suppressed the corners of her mouth that wanted to curl up. "Little Doctor Fang, that sounds so majestic, hehe."

"Well, you're welcome. This is what I have to do. Then, my Lord, I'll take my leave first."

"Doctor Fang, why don't you stay for dinner?" The princess standing nearby politely urged him to stay.

Ever since that concubine's daughter and her aunt were sent away, she has lived a happy and contented life.

The cause of this matter was Fang Nanzhi, and the Princess felt that she was very suitable for her.

Fang Nanzhi declined politely, as she wanted to go home.

The princess did not force it and called the maid beside her to personally escort the man out of the house.

Fang Nanzhi didn't hesitate and took his leave.

Ever since Shi Junyan had backed her up last time, everyone in the Prince's Mansion had treated her much more politely. It seemed as if they no longer treated her as more than just a doctor.

Fang Nanzhi was puzzled by this, but soon figured it out. He then decided to stick to his duty as a doctor and not do anything else.

After he left, the prince lay on the bed, being helped and given medicine by his servants, and then he spoke: "Is You'er coming back?"

You'er is his youngest daughter. She is also eight years old this year, about the same age as Fang Nanzhi.

Years ago, she was taken to live with her grandparents.

"Yes, I have asked someone to clean up her yard." When the princess mentioned her young daughter, a smile appeared on her face.

"When the person comes back, ask her brother to take her out more often and let her see the world." The prince said.

The Princess of the County felt that something was not right. In a family like theirs, the girls would not be kept in seclusion, nor would they be too rebellious.

What's more, her husband has always been very strict with You'er.

Thinking of something, she frowned: "Your Majesty, You'er is too young."

"Well, what are you afraid of? Didn't Doctor Fang also catch that person's eye?" The prince was not afraid to make things clear.

The concubine had tried to seduce the prince before, but she failed. That was just bad luck for her.

The prince thought that the prince might like young and lively girls. Could his pampered legitimate daughter be any worse than a commoner girl?

The Princess of the County said nothing, her brows furrowed. She didn't want her daughter to do such a thing. You'er didn't understand anything yet.

The prince raised his eyelids and glanced at her, somewhat dissatisfied with her soft-heartedness.

"What are you afraid of? The prince won't be able to stay in Huai'an Prefecture for long. If you don't seize the opportunity and find a way out for the mansion, it will be extremely difficult in the future."

"Besides, when You'er is a few years older, won't you also choose a husband for her?"

How are they the same?

The Princess of the County thought, but did not say it out loud: "I will discuss this matter with Qingmin."

The prince's face darkened and he put the medicine bowl down heavily, causing it to hit the table with a bang.

"I'm not dead yet. It's not time for him to take charge of the Prince's Mansion yet."

The princess suddenly didn't dare to speak.

A servant came in nervously, and seeing that something was wrong in the room, he didn't dare to say anything and just knelt down.

The prince calmed down, raised his eyes and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Reporting to the Prince, someone handed in a note outside the door. It's from Prince Ning's Mansion."

The servant reported back tremblingly.

The prince's expression became serious. Why did the people from the capital come so quickly?

"Bring it!"

The Princess did not tell her son about the affairs of the main courtyard.

But he still knew it, because he had already placed people in the main courtyard.

Qing Min smashed a set of teacups before he calmed down.

He immediately wrote a letter to his grandfather and sister, asking them to stay at their grandparents' house for a while. After a few months, he would go to pick them up in person.

After writing it, he sent a servant to deliver it.

He closed his eyes, thinking his father was becoming increasingly foolish. Was the prince someone he could manipulate?

Doing such unnecessary things would probably cause the little goodwill he had in front of the prince to disappear.

He wouldn't let anyone ruin his plans, not even his father.

After a long time, he thought about coming to Prince Ning's Mansion again. What did he want to do?

Fang Nanzhi took a carriage and did not go home directly. He and his second uncle stopped at a pancake stall!

The two of them bought a meat sandwich, each took half and ate it with relish. After eating, they wiped each other's mouths to make sure there were no traces left.

My mother recently said that the food sold outside is not clean and they are not allowed to eat it carelessly.

Although the food my mother cooks is delicious, her stomach is always a little greedy and she wants more and more.

But she happened to be rich, so she couldn't help but cheat. Fang Yin thought the same.

But they both felt that they were filial/obedient daughters/brothers and they could not hurt their mother/sister-in-law's feelings, so they only ate a little bit every time and tried not to be discovered.

After eating, the little girl climbed onto the carriage nimbly and saw a very familiar figure coming out of the restaurant opposite.

“Fang Qingya?”

She rubbed her eyes. Didn’t her cousin go to the capital?

Looking again, Fang Qingya was followed by a young man, and the two disappeared in a flash.

Fang Nanzhi scratched his head, somewhat puzzled.

Fang Yin didn't even see anyone and just drove away in the carriage.

After they left, Su Qingya stood in the corner with a sarcastic smile.

Qing Yao followed his gaze and said, "She is the cousin who bullied you? She is so young, but she is quite vicious. Don't worry, I will teach her a lesson for you."

Su Qingya smiled gently: "Brother Yao, don't be anxious, just focus on your business first. It's not worth it for the Fang family."

Qingyao nodded slightly, satisfied with her tact.

The prince is the important one, and the Fang family is just a small ant.

As soon as Fang Nanzhi returned home, she saw her father.

Fang Tong was carrying a bowl of noodles out of the kitchen.

The little girl ran over and wanted to hug him: "Daddy!"

She missed her father; she hadn't seen him for a long time.

Fang Tong quickly dodged backwards: "Don't come over here, don't come over here, be careful not to spill the noodle soup."

Fang Nanzhi could only stop.

"Besides, you are a grown-up girl now. It's not appropriate to hug me. If you want to hug someone in the future, you can hug your mother." Fang Tong walked into the house with the washbasin, muttering to himself.

"Oh." Fang Nanzhi agreed: "Then you can't hug your mother either. There is a difference between men and women."

She has already been studying the Book of Rites and knows a little about this.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Your mother and I are husband and wife." Fang Tong put down the basin and knocked his daughter on the head.

Fang Nanzhi pouted, covered her forehead and went to look for her mother.

Qian Fengping felt distressed and scolded: "My daughter is grown up now, don't hit her head all the time, what if she becomes stupid?"

Fang Tong agreed happily without any temper.

The family sat on the kang table, eating noodles. Today's noodles were different, made from flour ground from their own winter wheat.

Ahem, we only ground about ten pounds of this new flour and gave it to the county magistrate, General Meng and others to taste.

There wasn't much left, and he took it all to the city, leaving nothing for Tiezhu. Fang Tong thought, even if he saved more wheat, he should at least let his family have a taste of it, right?

You know what, new flour smells good.

Fang Yin quickly ate two large bowls and still wanted more.

Fang Tong grumbled as he served him the food, "Second brother, it's not that I'm reluctant to give it to you, but please don't eat too fast, it's hard to digest. And, didn't Zhizhi say you should chew a mouthful of rice thirty times before swallowing it?"

"Yes, this is good for the stomach." Fang Nanzhi nodded while slurping the noodles.

Fang Yin took the bowl and said unconvincedly, "Brother, you didn't chew it thirty times either."

"That's different. It has no taste after I chew it thirty times. Doesn't it taste bad?" Fang Tong said subconsciously.

Fang Yin stared at him with her dark eyes, the meaning was very clear, you know that too?

Fang Tong was embarrassed for a rare moment and tried to divert attention: "Zhizhi, you were the one who said this, you should lead by example."

The little girl who was eating noodles paused and lowered her head, pretending not to hear.

Qin Yan suppressed his laughter and helped his sister: "Dad, you don't know yet, my second uncle found a master to learn martial arts from."

"Oh, then do we need to pay him a visit?" Fang Tong changed the subject. He thought that one of the Zhou family's guards was looking for a disciple.

After all, my second brother has been learning from them.

"We'll go there the day after tomorrow. It's the home of General Meng Yi." Qian Fengping also said.

Fang Tong nodded indifferently, then realized: "What?"

"The Imperial Envoy, that Meng Yi? General Meng Yi?"

He raised his voice.

The other four were very calm and nodded in unison.

"Oh my, am I dreaming? He said it himself that he likes my second brother?" Fang Tong was a little confused.

Even though he was such a high-ranking official, the county magistrate didn't dare to breathe heavily in front of General Meng.

And that powerful Lord Wang is just an adjutant and has to respect General Meng. Why does he fall for his second brother?

The four of them looked at him again and nodded in unison.

Now Fang Tong was a little restless. He moved his butt and came to Fang Yin's side, looking at his face carefully for a long time.

I really don't see what's so outstanding about my second brother that he would be noticed by the general.

Fang Yin let him look at her and said seriously, "Don't look at me, brother. You are not as handsome as me. The general will not accept you."

Fang Tong's face darkened. Who gave him the confidence?

He is the most handsome one in the Fang family, okay?

"Well, what rank is General Meng?" he asked again.

Fang Nanzhi stretched out two fingers at him.

Fang Tong covered his chest and fell backwards. Qin Yan was startled and wanted to help him, but he sat up straight again.

"Hey, second rank, the disciple of the second rank general!"

"They say the gatekeepers at the Prime Minister's Mansion are equivalent to fifth-rank officials. So, are the apprentices of second-rank generals similar?"

Fang Tong's eyes were staring straight ahead, and no one knew where he was looking.

"It's not that exaggerated, Dad. Calm down." Fang Nanzhi shook his head, feeling that his father was still impatient.

Maybe by the time dad reaches her age, he will have grown up.

Fang Tong didn't have time to pay attention to her. His mind was so active that it had already jumped to other things.

He slapped his thigh and said, "Uncle has treasured Fang Jin all his life. Who would have thought that it would be my second brother who could make the ancestral grave smoke up in smoke? Hahahahaha!"

He laughed out loud, feeling indescribably happy.

"If Fang Jin knew about this, he would be so angry that his face would twist! He studied his whole life, and he couldn't even pass the exam to become a scholar, let alone an official. My second brother is so promising that he is going to be the general's apprentice!"

"Apprentice and son are almost the same, hahahahahahaha."

"Is this our father's blessing? Speaking of which, good things have happened to our family since we got adopted. Oh, next time I go back to the village, I have to visit the old couple's graves."

Fang Tong was a little incoherent.

Fang Yin also smiled innocently: "Brother, the general also promised to find me a wife in the future."

Fang Tong's eyes brightened up again. He was not thinking about his second brother marrying an official's daughter, but the main reason was that the person introduced by such a great general should have good character.

The two brothers laughed at each other foolishly, but Qian Fengping felt a little sad watching them.

She could understand that Fang Tong did this mainly because he felt he had vented his anger. Although the adoption was his initiative, he was also determined to cut off contact with the old couple in the Fang family.

But who wouldn’t feel hurt after being suppressed and looked down upon by their own parents for so many years?
