With Fang Tong's brain, he could never have imagined that "weak and graceful like a willow in the wind" was what some young ladies in the capital pursued.

He walked around her without caring about her relatives, jumped into the car, and whipped it, but did not let the car move.

He smiled faintly: "Junior? Since you say so, it is reasonable for me, your uncle, to teach you a lesson."

"This whip in my hand can be used to drive the carriage and to beat unfilial juniors. It all depends on your sincerity in apologizing."

What a mess! The horses are still lined up in front of her?

Su Qingya clenched her handkerchief, looking at the pitch-black whip but not daring to respond. She knew that based on Fang Lao San's logic, he really dared to take action.

"Uncle San, can I meet Sister Zhizhi?" She changed the subject.

Fang Tong was very unhappy, rolled his eyes, and said he came to apologize, that’s it?

The car curtain was opened by a slender hand, and the first person who caught Su Qingya's eyes was the jade-like young man.

As always, he is gentle and elegant, as if he is indifferent to the world, but the darkness under his eyes seems to contain something.

And his facial features seemed to be longer, and Su Qingya couldn't help but feel her heart beating faster.

Unexpectedly, after she had seen the world in the capital and already had a fiancé, the person who surprised her the most was Qin Yan.

Qin Yan, can't he forget her either? This thought made Su Qingya's ears redden slightly. She is the heroine, and she should be remembered by everyone.

Fang Nanzhi watched her eyes become increasingly strange, as if she wanted to eat her brother, and immediately stuck out her little head.

"Don't you want to see me? Do you want to kneel down and apologize to me in person? Kneel down!" Fang Nanzhi put his hands on his hips, raised his chin, and looked like he was waiting for you to kneel down.

Su Qingya came back to her senses instantly and hated it in her heart.

This father and daughter were so disrespectful. One made her be whipped and the other made her kneel down.

The little girl is not afraid of shortening her lifespan!

"Zhizhi, you misunderstood. That's not what I meant. We are sisters. Do you have to treat me like this?"

Su Qingya lowered her head slightly, as if she was heartbroken, but her eyes glanced at Qin Yan inadvertently.

I hope he can stand up and speak for her.

Fang Nanzhi frowned and touched his chin in confusion: "You framed me, and you took the initiative to apologize. What did I do to you?"

She's educated, not stupid. Su Qingya wants to confuse right and wrong with just a few words? No way!

"Are you going to kneel or not? If not, we're leaving!" Fang Nanzhi snorted heavily.

"It seems that Miss Su's apology is not sincere, so there is no need to come again." Qin Yan also spoke.

After the children finished speaking, Fang Tong really drove away.

It was so quick and decisive that Su Qingya didn't even react. How could this happen?

"Miss, if we don't apologize, it will be difficult to explain to the prince." The maid who was supporting her spoke cautiously.

Su Qingya's face looked unhappy: "You don't need to remind me."

She wasn't too worried. After all, she could just coax the man when she got home.

The Qin family's carriage drove away.

Fang Nanzhi was still puzzled: "Why do I feel that my cousin has changed and become stupider after coming to Beijing, like that...like that illegitimate daughter of a prince who was sent to a temple!"

Weirdly confident, but behaving stupidly.

Qian Fengping was amused. She patted her daughter's head and said, "It's not that she's stupid. It's that she's used to relying on others for support. The tricks she's learned are to win favor and flatter."

Although she had never seen it, as a former scholar's wife, she still understood it.

In the past, no one in the Fang family supported Fang Qingya, so she had to rely on herself for all her plans.

But now, she seems to think that she can achieve her goals by relying on men, the Earl's Mansion, and the Prince of Ning, so she unconsciously caters to their actions.

Fang Nanzhi didn't understand and scratched his head.

"By the way, Brother Yan, is it okay for us to go this way?" Fang Tong's voice came from outside.

They had discussed not accepting Su Qingya's apology. Qin Yan had said that the situation was complicated now and it was better not to forgive her.

Originally, Fang Tong and his daughter were planning to embarrass others, so they just forgave them on the surface. Ahem, after all, they had to give Shi Junyan face.

"No problem." Qin Yan responded.

He knew much more, such as that Prince Ning had spent the entire day in the government office yesterday, and that a certain Lord Lu, who claimed to be a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, had come to Huai'an Prefecture.

Fang Tong stopped talking, waved his whip, and urged the carriage to go faster.

Soon, we arrived at Mushan Village.

As soon as we arrived at the village entrance, it became lively.

"Is Tongzi back? How long will he stay this time?"

"Look at what you're saying. There's so much work to do in the fields, how can you just leave like that?"

"How is my sister Qian? I will go to the provincial capital to see her when I am free!" The speaker was the village chief's daughter-in-law, Chen.

Beside her, her man said disdainfully: "Don't, or you'll get lost again!"

Chen put her hands on her hips and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I've seen the world, and I've been everywhere."

The village chief's son suddenly stopped talking. Of course, his wife would go to some cake shop in Lin County from time to time to teach people how to make cakes, and she would be picked up and dropped off by car.

He was still worried and insisted that he would work as her servant to take care of her food and drink before he would have the nerve to go with her.

When the people around saw the couple like this, they all laughed.

Ever since several women in the village started doing business and became prosperous, they have the final say in the family.

The situation is now the opposite of before. The men are concerned about their food, clothing, housing and transportation, while other men say they are useless but are envious in their hearts.

Who doesn’t want to have a capable wife?

The car curtain opened, and Qian Fengping also greeted with a smile: "Sister-in-law Chen!"

"Hey! My sister Qian is back!" Chen slapped her thigh and smiled brightly: "Why do you look even whiter?"

Fang Tong simply got off the carriage and pulled it slowly.

Chen was not polite at all. He took his previous seat and chatted with Qian Fengping.

"It seems that the capital city still has a lot of people to feed. Why do you look fat?"

"Really? Sister Chen, you are more energetic now, and you are obeying my talented brother." Qian Fengping also joked.

Fang Nanzhi squeezed past the two of them, got off the carriage, and went to play with his friends.

Fang Tong didn't care about her. After all, she was in the village, so how could she get lost?

The car finally arrived at Erwa’s house.

There was no other way, I had to lend out my house to get married.

Tiezhu's grandfather came to pick him up personally and held Qin Yan's hand tightly.

"This child has grown taller again."

Qin Yan gave a sweet smile.

Old Master Ma patted him on the shoulder and asked, "How's your study going? When are you going to take the exam to become a scholar?"

"Not bad." Qin Yan said modestly.

"Grandpa, didn't I tell you not to ask and not to put pressure on the child?" Tiezhu rushed over and almost covered the old man's mouth.

He knew that Fang Tong and his wife didn't ask about it because they were afraid that their child would think too much.

Old Master Ma cried out in pain, then remembered that he just couldn't help himself.

In this life, he will not have any descendants who are good at studying. Isn't it true that some people from other families call him "Grandpa" and he can't help it?

Qin Yan smiled and said, "It's okay, Grandpa Ma. I made progress in the provincial school exam a few days ago. If I work hard for another year, I should be able to move up to the next class. The teachers all like me very much, and my classmates are also good."

He actually doesn't mind these things. From the very beginning, he has had goals for himself.

Mr. Ma was so happy to see that the child was still so close to him.

Listen carefully to what the child said, the old man and the child went back to the house.

Tiezhu didn't leave, but bowed solemnly to Qian Fengping.

Qian Fengping was so scared that she shrank back. What happened?

"Sister-in-law, thank you so much for taking care of me and lending me your house. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be where I am today. Don't worry, my house is already under construction. When it's finished, you can come and live with your nephews and nieces."

Tiezhu was sincere, but he was tongue-tied and couldn't say anything better.

"Nonsense! If it weren't for the copper coins, you might be raising a wife and daughter for someone else today!"

Goudan was teasing on purpose!

The day before yesterday, Cui Pingping, the girl Ma Laifu married later, gave birth prematurely! He was muttering to himself that he wanted to beat drums and gongs, saying that the baby was about to be born.

As a result, a daughter was born!

Ahem, if Fang Tong and the others hadn't seen through it at the beginning, Tiezhu wouldn't be supporting someone else's wife and daughter and being a sucker now!

Tiezhu's face turned red. Isn't this just bringing up something that is not related to the topic?

Qian Fengping suppressed a laugh and coughed: "Okay, when your new house is ready, I'll take your nephew to live there."

Tiezhu nodded happily after hearing this. He was happy that his sister-in-law didn't treat him as an outsider.

"Okay, okay, I'm going to move in too. You should get some new bedding!" Fang Tong was also a polite person and made arrangements.

The atmosphere in the yard became lively.

Cui Pingping came in at this moment. She was wrapped tightly. She was still weak after giving birth and was staggering after taking a few steps.

She fixed her eyes on Tiezhu: "Tiezhu, mother asked me to ask if there is anyone who needs help..."

Everyone looked at her.

The matter will be settled tomorrow, and the Ma family came today to ask if they need help? Isn't this just a pretense?

And let a woman who just gave birth ask, who are you disgusted with?

"No." Tiezhu frowned, and he also felt that there was something wrong with the way his uncle and aunt did things.

Are you not letting your daughter-in-law observe her confinement? If this gets out, the whole village will laugh at you.

"Tiezhu, I have something to tell you." Cui Pingping bit her lip, tears in her eyes.

She regretted it. In just two days after she gave birth to a daughter, Malay Fu made her realize how treacherous people could be.

He pinched her neck and asked if she was the one who hired the fortune teller.

Cui Pingping, how could that be? Didn’t Ma Laifu tell her about the Qilinzi?

There is also the mother-in-law who plans to abandon her daughter, saying that the girl is worthless and she already has a grandson anyway.

Cui Pingping had never experienced such hardship before as she was fed leftovers at home.

Even if she gave birth to a daughter, she and Ma Laifu had feelings for each other. Why did he treat her like this?

"I'm not looking for you for anything. Please leave quickly and don't die here." Tiezhu said with a cold face and a harsh tone.

The main reason was that he had heard from someone that a young wife had died of heavy bleeding due to not taking good care of herself after giving birth.

It would be so unlucky if Cui Pingping died here.

Cui Pingping was stunned. Tiezhu used to love her so much, going to her house every few days to show off his affection. But now, he actually...

"Tiezhu, your cousin is not nice to me..." She gritted her teeth and shouted.

In her opinion, since Tiezhu was interested in her, she should go find Ma Laifu and beat him up to vent her anger.

"What does it have to do with me?" Tiezhu frowned. He was really confused.

Qian Fengping noticed something was wrong. This girl must have suffered a blow and now her thoughts were a little distorted.

"Well, Miss Cui, it's not good for you to stand like this all the time when you're still in confinement. Don't make your family worry."

The Chen family women also came back to their senses.

"Yes, yes, sister-in-law will take you back!" Chen pulled two people, one on the left and one on the right, and forcibly took Cui Pingping out regardless of whether she was willing or not.

Qian Fengping couldn't be involved in this matter. The Qin family and the Ma family didn't have a good relationship, and they might blackmail Fengping later.

But Chen was not afraid. She was the daughter-in-law of the village chief. What could the Ma family dare to do to her?

Fang Tong frowned and called Tiezhu into the house.

"Are you still in contact with her?"

Tiezhu was startled: "What are you talking about? If the bridesmaid knows, will the marriage still be successful?"

"I haven't seen him since the breakup!"

He is busy working in the fields every day, and when he has free time he goes to his bride's house to show his courtesy.

Fang Tong believed this.

"So what did she want to do by saying all this nonsense today?"

Tiezhu looked at him with his big innocent eyes, but he didn't know either.

Qian Fengping spoke up: "I guess he's not living a happy life, so he can't stand seeing others doing well."

She didn't think Cui Pingping suddenly became interested in Tiezhu. This girl was very proud.

"Tiezhu, go to Xi Niang's house later and tell her about this. Don't go back to the village and talk nonsense, and let Xi Niang misunderstand." She warned.

Tiezhu nodded, his ears reddening slightly. "Sister-in-law, we're not allowed to meet before the wedding."

"That's right, I almost forgot. I'll go and tell her then." Qian Fengping slapped her forehead.

No matter what Cui Pingping was up to, they couldn't destroy the relationship between Tiezhu and his wife.

"But, Tongzi, is the Ma family treating her badly because she gave birth to a daughter? Back then, that Qilin child was our..." Tiezhu spoke hesitantly.

At that time, he wanted to take advantage of Ma Lai Fu's plan, but now, the Ma family treats Cui Pingping badly because she is not a son, and he is afraid that the newborn child will not be treated well either.

"Qilin'er, who said it's a son? Girls can also be promising. Take my daughter for example. She can treat patients now. Don't you think she is amazing?" Fang Tong looked unhappy.

"But let Mr. Ma go and take a look later."

Adults commit sins and suffer the consequences themselves, but children are innocent.

"Okay, I'll go talk to grandpa." Tiezhu responded.

Fang Nanzhi and her friends played until the evening and had lunch at the fat boy's house.

"Uncle Tiezhu, I have a question!"

The little girl ran straight to her uncles.

Erwa and his friends loved her the most. During this period, when they had free time, they made small toys, such as wooden horses, bamboo dragonflies, etc., and asked Fang Tong to take them to the city for his niece.

"What's the problem?" Tiezhu couldn't help but smile when he looked at his fair and cute niece. He also wanted to have a daughter like her.

Erwa also came over and brought a bowl of egg custard, which was steamed specially for Fang Nanzhi.

"Which official in the world has the shortest tenure?"

There was a cunning flash in Fang Nanzhi's eyes.

What's the problem?

"I don't know. Your uncles don't know anyone who is an official." Erwa thought about it seriously.

"But isn't being an official a lifelong position? You can retire and return home when you're old... or even die in office?"

Erwa remembered that one of their county magistrates died of old age in the county government office.

Tiezhu also shook his head. He was a rough guy and really didn't know.

"It's the groom!" Fang Nanzhi exclaimed, "Uncle Tiezhu is going to be the groom!"

Tiezhu and the other two were stunned!

Yes, the groom is the bridegroom on the wedding day and retires from his post after the bridal chamber.
