After the cannon fodder father and daughter married into the family, the whole family regretted it

If Patriarch Qin felt bitter and a little embarrassed, then Patriarch Fang felt regretful.

I regret that my intestines are blue.

Originally, Fang Tong, the official, was from his clan. When a clan had an official, he could die with his chest held high before his ancestors.

But he listened to Fang Dama and crossed out the promising young man from the family tree.

Patriarch Fang beat his chest in regret, and also blamed himself for not judging people well enough and not realizing early on that Fang Tong had this ability.

And this kid Fang Tong, how could he be so cruel? The Fang family didn't treat him well, and the clan didn't care much about him, but he couldn't even write two Fang characters with one stroke.

It would be great if he was willing to return to his tribe.

The old patriarch of the Fang family was feeling angry when Fang Lu and several other elders of the Fang family came together.

"Uncle clan leader, are you at home?" Fang Lu greeted him.

Patriarch Fang calmed down and nodded slightly: "Why are you here?"

"It's uncomfortable, clan leader. You said Tongzi was so capable, why did you expel him from the clan?" Master Fang Jiu was about the same age as the clan leader and spoke without too many reservations.

Patriarch Fang frowned: "He was the one who married into the family first..."

"That's not right, Uncle Clan Leader. Tongzi didn't marry into the family voluntarily. He was forced into this situation by Uncle Dama because he had no other choice."

"You are the clan leader, but you can't take care of your clan members, yet you allow one of them to marry into your family?"

Fang Lu interrupted him, his words full of resentment.

"How dare you! It's not your turn to teach me a lesson." The old patriarch Fang frowned.

His sinister gaze swept over the old fellows behind him. It was not he alone who made the decision to remove Fang Tong from the family tree.

Don’t these old guys all agree?

They also said behind his back that this kid was always fooling around and causing trouble for the clan, so it would be better to separate him.

Now that Fang Tong has become successful, everyone is regretting their decision and wants him to take the blame?

"Fatty, what Fang Lu said is true. What have you done as the clan leader over the years?" The oldest and most senior master Fang Liu spoke.

Fatty is the nickname of Patriarch Fang.

No one has called him that since he became an adult, and Master Fang Liu usually calls him the clan leader.

Moreover, Mr. Fang Liu is Fang Lu’s grandfather.

Patriarch Fang realized that they came with ill intentions.

Before he could speak, Master Fang Liu continued, "Oh, I remember now. I did something. Some time ago, I expelled the Fang Zetian brothers from the clan."

"The patriarchs of our Fang family have always thought about how to make the clan prosperous. But you, on the other hand, keep kicking out clan members." Master Fang Jiu continued, "Tell me, what has Brother Fang Zetian done to deserve expulsion from the clan?"

"Is it true, as the rumors in the village say, that the descendants of the Fang family were sold for money?"

Patriarch Fang's eyes were cloudy, but his heart was clear.

When Fang Zetian was expelled from the clan, he took advantage of the situation and promised to build a clan school.

And he has already found the teacher. He has discussed this matter with the elders of the clan. Now that the question has come to him, does he not want to run the clan school anymore?

Patriarch Fang snorted coldly, "Sixth Uncle, Ninth Uncle, if you have any opinions, just say it directly. Why are you pretending to be innocent?"

Master Fang Liu said nothing, but sat on the kang with his eyes closed.

Master Fang Jiu smiled and said, "Then I'll say what I want to say. We feel that our clan has been getting worse and worse over the years and is far inferior to the Qin clan. It's all because of your inaction as clan leader."

"Chief, we are all at this age, it is normal that we don't have the energy to take care of some things. Since we can't take care of them, we should give our position to the young people and give them some opportunities."

As soon as these words were spoken, Patriarch Fang's expression changed.

He shouted angrily: "Are you crazy? You want to change the clan leader?"

Which of the Fang clan's ancestors had not been a high-ranking clan leader in the clan? There had never been a case of a clan leader being forced to step down.

"Fatty, don't say such harsh words. It's not about replacement, it's just that you are too old to do the work. It's time to hand over the affairs of the clan to the next generation." Sixth Master Fang looked at him dimly.

Patriarch Fang is not stupid.

According to the rules, if he is really unable to do his job, the position of patriarch should be given to his eldest son.

But now that Master Fang Liu and his men have come to our door, can it be that simple?

His eyes fell on Fang Lu and he suddenly smiled.

"Sixth Uncle, you want Fang Lu to be the clan leader? Hahaha, that's a good plan, but I'm afraid the clan rules won't allow it!"

The Fang family is a small clan, but there is a rule that the eldest son inherits the position of clan leader.

You can't do this kind of thing recklessly.

There was an internal fight in the clan, and Fang Dama - Old Man Fang was sitting at the entrance of the village.

Looking at the end of the official road.

His eldest son will definitely come back. He has great potential and will never forget his father.

As for Fang Tong, he is a rebellious son.

He only regretted that he didn't strangle Fang Tong to death from the moment he was born.

It was he who took the second son away and instigated the old woman to remarry.

Even the disappearance of his eldest son was probably because Fang Tong stole his luck.

This ninth-rank official should belong to Fang Jin. Fang Jin will be filial to him because he is the official’s biological father!

Fang Tong knew nothing about the dark side of things going on behind the scenes.

He invited the villagers to a meal, handed over the tasks at hand to Tiezhu and others, and left with his wife.

After meeting up with Wu Dongjia, he went to the capital.

Fang Nanzhi saw them off at the city gate, her eyes full of reluctance and envy.

"My daughter, study hard. Dad will go to Beijing to see some delicious food and fun things for you!" Fang Tong grinned happily.

Fang Nanzhi turned her head away angrily and ignored her.

Qian Fengping, the mother, is much more reliable.

"My daughter, take good care of yourself and the gentlemen. Don't act naughty. When I come back from the capital, I'll buy you a gift."

"Okay, Mom, I'm grown up and I'm very good." Fang Nanzhi nodded.

As the carriage gradually drove away, Fang Nanzhi sighed, feeling a little melancholy.

She climbed onto Zhou's carriage and went back.

"Zhizhi, come here, there is a letter for you." Mr. Zhou waved to her as soon as he saw her.

"Huh? Was it sent by my brother?"

Qin Yan and Zhou Zijing went to take the examination for Luming Academy. Qin Yan ranked fifth and Zhou Zijing ranked third, and both were successfully admitted.

He moved into the academy that day.

After that, two letters were sent home every month, both using the Zhou family channels. They were first delivered to Zhou's house and then taken home by Zhizhi.

Mr. Zhou nodded at her.

Fang Nanzhi opened the letter directly.

In the letter, Qin Yanxian was surprised that his father became an official, and said that he had prepared a very valuable gift for his father and would give it to him in person later.

In addition, he analyzed the position of Walking Agricultural Inspector and gave his father some advice.

He also talked about his recent situation in the academy, saying that the teacher valued him very much and his classmates were also very friendly.

His horsemanship and piano skills improved rapidly, and he urged Zhizhi to learn as well, believing that the six arts of a gentleman are also very important.

After reading it, Fang Nanzhi became excited. Her brother said he would give her a guitar.

Na Qin and Qin Yan bought some flowers and plants and asked the escort agency to deliver them. There were so many things and they were so big that they didn't bother the Zhou family's servants.

She also longs to learn piano. Sitting at the piano, she can play exquisite music with just the slightest movement of her fingers.

After she finished playing, everyone who listened to the music praised her, hehe.

Seeing his apprentice laughing foolishly, Mr. Zhou shook his head, turned around and left without disturbing her.

After Fang Nanzhi was happy, she started thinking about giving a gift to her father.

Her brother has prepared a gift for Dad. If she doesn’t have one, won’t she be outdone?

Humph, no, she is the most filial daughter to her father.
