The beauty who wears fast has many babies

Chapter 71 World 2: Night Talk

"Hurry, let's go inside first." Father Dong said as he wiped his tears when he saw more and more people watching the excitement outside.

"Ahem, please come in, little brother." Dong Xiang coughed twice and gestured to Wu Fan.

"No, now that the people have been safely delivered, I should go back and report." Wu Fan saw the situation and it was not convenient for him to stay here any longer. He knew very well that he should spend time with this family at this moment.

Dong Xiang saw this and felt a surge of gratitude in his heart. He quickly asked, "I haven't asked for your name yet, little brother?" His tone was full of sincerity and honesty.

"Brother Dong, you're too polite. I'm Wu Fan," he said with a smile. He had seen this family at the Marquis' Mansion, so naturally he knew Dong Xiang.

Then he clasped his fists and bowed, saying, "Then I'll take my leave first. Goodbye."

"Thank you very much. Have a safe journey. I will find a chance to thank you another day!" Dong Xiang said.

"Gee!" Wu Fan nodded, whipped his horse and rode away.

"Come on, come inside and talk."

Dong's father held Dong Fan's arm tightly, fearing that this was a dream.

"Hiss~Okay."

Dong Fan gasped when his sore spot was caught, but he couldn't help but smile when he saw that his family cared about him so much.

"What's wrong? Fanzi." Dong's mother heard that his voice was not right and hurriedly rolled up her sleeves.

"damned!"

"My son!"

Then she burst into uncontrollable crying, which made the listeners feel sad.

"What's wrong?"

Because the candlelight in the room was dim, Dongyang, who was standing at the back, did not see clearly what happened and hurriedly turned to the front.

The family gathered around Dong Fan, anxiously examining his arm. His sleeve was rolled up, covered in bruises of varying depths. The bruises, a series of deep and shallow, were shocking. It was as if an invisible hand had grasped his arm, leaving these hideous marks. The bruises varied in color, some even tinged purple and black, creating an unsettling atmosphere. This once strong and robust arm now seemed fragile and powerless.

"Brother! Who did it! I will kill him!" Dongyang's eyes were red and he gritted his teeth in anger.

"Okay! Sit down. It's a blessing in disguise that Dongfan is back." As the backbone of the family, Dong's father was relatively steady at the critical moment.

"Dad is right, I'm fine, sit down and talk." Dong Fan comforted with a smile.

Dong Fan looked around and saw that everyone was silent. Even the two children were leaning against their parents, not daring to speak.

"What's wrong? I'm fine." Dong Fan said with a smile.

"Look what I brought back." Dong Fan said as he untied the bag on the table.

"This pipe is for Dad. These two hairpins were made by someone I know when I was free. They are for Mom and sister-in-law. And these four treasures of the study are for Big Brother. The abacus was given to me by Big Brother Wu Fan. He said it was discarded in the mansion and was given to Yangzi. You can't dislike it." Dong Fan talked on and on without paying attention to the expressions of others.

"And this set of carving knives is for A Guang. Haven't you always wanted to learn carpentry? When there's a chance, I'll find a master for you." Dong Fan said as he placed the things in his hands in front of them one by one.

"And this tiger-head hat is for our little Ping'an and little Niuniu. By the way, second uncle also brought you a rattle!" Dong Fan said as he took out the rattle from under his clothes and fiddled with it gently.

In the silence, the only sound was the rattle.

"Fanzi, compared to you, I'm sorry for you! I'm really useless!" Dong Xiang looked at his younger brother in front of him with heartache and slapped himself hard.

"Brother! What are you doing? Why do you have to say this as a family?" Dong Fan hurriedly grabbed his hand.

His brother looked at him with tears in his eyes, then lowered his head, and big tears fell down.

Even Dongyang Dongguang turned his back and rubbed his eyes.

"Okay, everyone is happy." Dong's father said in a hoarse voice.

"Fan'er, where did you get the money to buy these things?" Dong's father continued to ask.

Dong Fan turned around and looked at his father after hearing this, only to see that the family was wearing shabby clothes, but the material of their clothes was much better than before.

"Dad, these were bought with the reward from the wife of the Marquis. I asked Brother Wu Fan to buy them for me. He has a wide network of contacts, so it didn't cost much." Dong Fan said slowly.

"Brother! What's the matter with all these injuries on your body?" Dongyang asked hurriedly before Dong's father could speak.

"This is done for outsiders to see. It looks serious, but it will be fine after a few days of rest." Dong Fan explained.

"You can't hit me so hard." Dong's mother sobbed.

"Mom, your son, I accepted the money but didn't get the job done. It's a blessing that you came back alive." Dong Fan comforted her.

"Okay, stop crying. Now that our family is together, it's better than anything else." Dong's father said firmly.

"Dad is right. Look, isn't this house better than the one we had before? It can be considered a blessing in disguise for me, hahahaha." Dong Fan couldn't help laughing as he thought about it.

"Hiss~" He accidentally pulled the wound at the corner of his mouth.

"Brother, you'd better be careful. This is not a blessing in disguise. Although our family conditions were not very good before, at least we are in the capital. If not... you wouldn't have to suffer this time." Dongyang retorted. In fact, he just felt uncomfortable.

"No, these are not what I meant by a blessing in disguise." Dong Fan smiled and kept the secret.

"Fan Zi, stop teasing him." Dong Xiang smiled and shook his head.

"Hahaha, okay, when I came back this time, Madam told me that you can study with Mr. Xiucai at the farm and even take the imperial examinations."

"in addition……"

"Wait! Fanzi, you also know our family's conditions, so we don't want to think about it anymore." Although Dong Xiang has always had this idea in his mind about the imperial examination, the reality forced him to consider the livelihood issue first.

"Brother, please listen to me." Dong Fan patted his hands, signaling him to be patient.

"Madam also said that if I pass the exam, she can sponsor our whole family to move to Beijing." Dong Fan's eyes sparkled with a vision of the future.

Dong Xiang was stunned. He stared at Dong Fan blankly, as if trying to confirm whether he had heard it wrong.

Dongyang jumped up excitedly, "Really? That's great! Big Brother!"

Dong's father and mother smiled at each other, tears in their eyes, as they saw hope of changing their fate.

Dongxiang was overjoyed, knowing this was a rare opportunity. Despite the hardships ahead, he firmly believed that as long as he worked hard, the future would be even brighter.

"Also, Madam also told us to study hard at Zhuangzi for the next few years. For safety reasons, we should try not to go to Beijing. If we have any questions, please write to her."

"So, the next thing we need to consider is what skills we should learn." Dong Fan said and looked at everyone.

They were all immersed in their own world, probably because they had not yet fully digested the good news brought by Dong Fan's resurrection.

"Tell me when you've made up your mind. If you haven't, Madam actually has some suggestions." Dong Fan said without any hurry and just waited silently.
