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

"It's a perfect match, senior and junior brothers and sisters, a match made in heaven, that's what Zhizhi's notebook says."

Fang Yin lowered his head and refuted carefully.

I always feel like something is wrong.

Two days ago, didn’t the whole family persuade him to marry his junior sister?

How come now that he is willing, his family is against it again?

Fang Tong glared at his daughter. What kind of books does this child read every day?

Fang Nanzhi was embarrassed: "Second uncle, the storybooks are all made up, don't take them seriously."

Fang Yin didn't say anything, just pursed his lips, looking like he was wronged.

In other words, the major general absolutely does not show this side of himself in front of his family or to outsiders.

Seeing that his second brother was not convinced and didn't know what to say, Fang Tong began the second step of guidance.

"Brother, I understand. Are you afraid of offending General Meng, so you suddenly agreed?"

"Snapped!"

He slammed the table, looking very righteous.

"Did General Meng use coercion or bribery to coerce you? That's too much. My second brother is determined and will never marry a woman he doesn't like. Second brother, you can't give in. How about I go and talk to General Meng?"

Even Qian Fengping was serious and solemn.

"Second brother, we all know you. Once you make a decision, you won't regret it. Your sudden decision to marry Miss Meng is definitely not your own will."

"At worst, we can quit being officials and go home to farm. Then your sister-in-law will find you a wife in the surrounding area. She must be good at eating and easy to support."

The couple spoke from the bottom of their hearts, saying that they would rather give up wealth and glory for their second brother than let him marry a woman he didn't want to marry.

"Alas, Miss Meng Lan is quite pitiful, but you can't force her to be happy or not."

Fang Nanzhi sighed deeply.

Qin Yan tried hard to suppress the curled corners of his mouth, not wanting to ruin the family's play.

Seeing that they had misunderstood, Fang Yin wanted to explain: "No, no, Master won't force me."

"Oh? Was it Miss Meng who forced you to do that? That's not okay either. No matter if it's a woman or a man, you can't force anyone to do anything."

Fang Tong pretended to be angry, but the gossipy look in his eyes could not be hidden at all.

It was because Fang Yin was distracted at the moment that he didn't notice it.

"No, Junior Sister is not that kind of person."

Fang Yin hesitated again and again, but some things were still difficult to say, so he simply closed his eyes and spoke directly.

"I, I like Junior Sister."

As soon as the words fell, the room was silent for a moment.

Fang Nanzhi was the first one who couldn't hold it in any longer and came forward to pick up some food for his second uncle.

"Second uncle, tell me, why did you suddenly change your mind?"

"I guess it wasn't a sudden change, it was more of a discovery."

Qin Yan’s evaluation is fair.

"Oh~ How did you find out? Second brother, tell me about it. I'll give you some advice. I've been through this before, so I understand all these things."

Fang Tong also picked up a big chicken leg for his second brother.

After picking it up, he felt something was wrong and glanced at his daughter: "Zhizhi, you and your brother should go to the backyard to eat. The moonlight is beautiful tonight, perfect for moon viewing."

Fang Nanzhi pouted.

Fang Tong said seriously: "You are still young, there are some things you can't just listen to."

She is not young. When she was in the provincial capital, she treated patients and heard a lot of gossip between couples all day long.

But she reluctantly agreed.

Qin Yan didn't want to leave either. His sister was young, but he should be old enough to get engaged.

The brother and sister went out reluctantly, and after a while they quietly came back and made a gesture to silence the gatekeeper Yao.

Butler Yao looked up and said, "Wow, it's so dark tonight."

"Nothing," Fang Yin hesitated, but he was really confused, so he couldn't help but start talking.

"Sister-in-law, does your heart beat fast when you see my third brother?"

Qian Fengping, who stayed to listen to the gossip, had her ears reddened. What kind of question was this? She and Tongzi were already an old married couple, so why would there be so much...

"meeting."

She admitted it with a pretentious air.

What's wrong with an old couple? There are times when they find each other attractive too.

"Junior sister said that this is Xinyue. She said that every time she saw me... but I didn't have it originally."

"But today, when she hugged me, my heart beat really fast. Third brother, have you ever experienced this?"

Fang Yin is not ashamed to ask questions.

Fang Tong: “Yes.”

"Well, why did Miss Meng hug you?"

He quickly changed the subject.

"Today, my junior sister invited me to dinner. Halfway through the meal, she asked me what I thought. I said that we were not suitable and asked her to find someone else."

"Junior sister agreed."

Fang Tong and his wife nodded together, and then what?

"Later, when I was sending my junior sister back home, a man who looked like a little chicken appeared on the road. He was very ugly and said he wanted to take my junior sister on a boat ride."

"Little chicken? Ugly? Who is it?" Fang Tong couldn't help but ask.

Fang Yin was in a bad mood whenever he mentioned him: "I don't know, they say he became the runner-up, but at least he's not a good person."

Fang Nanzhi, who was eavesdropping at the door, pricked up his ears.

Becoming the runner-up, sounds familiar...

Come to think of it, wasn't it the one who helped Miss Wang find a husband that day? The one who set the test for the many scholars?

He is a handsome man with a nice appearance. What is that look in his eyes, uncle?

Others had never seen a runner-up, but they knew that those who became runners-up had all taken the palace examination and were personally selected by the emperor.

Such a person must not only be talented, but also must not be ugly.

Everyone could tell that Fang Yin's words were more about personal grudges, but no one exposed him.

"Junior sister actually agreed. Alas, I am worried and can only follow her on the lake cruise."

"That little brat really has bad intentions. He wanted to play the piano as soon as he got on the boat, and he even fell asleep while playing."

"When I woke up, I saw that the boy was actually trying to do something bad to my junior sister. How could I just stand by and watch?"

"I went up and kicked him into the river. My junior sister was frightened and missed her step and almost fell into the river as well. I thought it was no good because the book said that if a girl falls into the water and is rescued, she must marry the man who rescued her."

"What's that about ruining her reputation? I quickly went up to her, hugged her, and saved her."

"When I hugged her, my heart beat so fast..."

Fang Yin said this, feeling a little confused and shy.

The couple had a lot to complain after hearing this. What do you mean you hugged the girl because you were afraid of ruining her reputation?

Wouldn't it be disgraceful if you hugged someone?

But they were too lazy to say that this must have been planned by Miss Meng.

"Second brother, you saw Cheng Bangyan trying to do something inappropriate to Miss Meng. What do you mean?"

"He used the excuse of teaching his sister piano to actually want to get physical!"

Fang Yin gets angry when he talks about it. He is a pretty boy with no good intentions.

Tsk tsk, what a jealous person, Fang Tong complained in his heart.

After eating such a big melon, the Fang family’s food was completely cold when they ate and had to be reheated.

At the same time, from the back door of the Meng Mansion, Miss Meng came out with her maid. Cheng Bangyan, who was soaking wet and had no time to go back to change clothes, sneezed.

But he remained calm: "Ms. Meng, this is not what we agreed on. I have suffered heavy losses..."

"Add more money, fifty taels!" Meng Lan interrupted domineeringly.

Cheng Bangyan smiled politely and said, "Ms. Meng is so generous. If you need anything in the future, just come to me. Oh, and if any of your friends have similar needs, Miss Meng can help introduce them."
