Fengluo Pingyang

Fang Yuesheng and Fang Yueqi welcomed Lin Xuanying into the room. Lin Xuan looked around a mile away, patted the wall and said: "This yard was bought temporarily. I am not as rich and powerful as your Houfu, so I pooled some money To be able to buy this small courtyard, the two young masters have been wronged."

Fang Yueqi knew that he was joking on purpose, if it was before, he would have choked up.But from the accident in the Hou's mansion to the present, only Lin Xuanying is sincerely running for them, and has arranged everything so properly. He used to dislike Lin Xuanying, which was partly due to Ling Ji, but now he is not good at always being cold to others. face.Waiting to be kind to him, but not used to it, finally showed a very distorted smile.

"A hero doesn't mention his bravery." Fang Yuesheng sighed, "Lin Xuanying, you've done a good job, don't underestimate yourself."

Lin Xuanying raised her brows, what's with this feeling of being praised as a subordinate?

Fang Yueqi poured a cup of tea and handed it to Lin Xuanying: "Mr. Lin understands righteousness and saved the Marquis's House from danger. Our Fang family will always remember Mr. Lin's great kindness."

Lin Xuanying took it over flattered, and said again and again: "Master Yueqi, don't be so polite, you should thank you."

"What did you say?!" Fang Yueqi twitched his mouth.

"I mean, this is what you deserve." Lin Xuanying said hastily.

Fang Yueqi still said seriously, "Now we have nothing, so we can't repay Mr. Lin's kindness."

"It's okay, remember first." Lin Xuanying nodded.

"Lin Xuanying!" Fang Yueqi finally couldn't hold back his businesslike attitude, stared at him and said, "I'm talking about serious business, please cooperate!"

"Of course I want to cooperate. Master Yueqi, please continue to talk about the serious business." Lin Xuanying hurriedly straightened her face and sat upright.

Fang Yueqi didn't bother to look at him, and said directly: "We can't live with you all the time and accept your financial assistance."

"What are your plans?" Lin Xuanying finally frowned and looked at Fang Yueqi.

Fang Yueqi didn't answer, but turned to look at Fang Yuesheng.

He just had such an idea, as for more far-reaching plans, he hadn't thought about it yet.

The Lin Mansion is not a wealthy family. There are so many people living here in their Fang Mansion. If they don’t have a reliable income, they all rely on Lin Xuanying to support them. How much money he has can make him poor.What's more, Lin Xuanying is still studying at Qiming Academy, and he has not yet made a living. He will definitely become an official in the future, and they will only become his burden.

Fang Yuesheng also nodded and said: "My cousin is right, this is not a long-term solution."

Lin Xuanying put down the tea bowl, walked in front of the two of them, and said, "Don't worry, you should stay here first, and don't hide any difficulties from me."

Fang Yueqi and Fang Yuesheng nodded together, Lin Xuanying let out a sigh of relief and showed a kind smile.

After finishing speaking, it seemed that there was no other topic to talk about, and the room fell into silence for a short while.

They used to have positions with each other, and when they didn't get along, they quarreled and quarreled very loudly. Now the relationship is very relaxed, and they haven't gotten close to that point. After talking about the business, they fell into such a weird embarrassment.

After a while, Fang Yueqi saw that Lin Xuanying was sitting there with no intention of leaving, and finally couldn't help coughing: "Mr. Lin, when are you going to return home?"

"I went to pick up Lord Fang in the afternoon, and I came with your carriage." Lin Xuanying said, "My horse was ridden back by a servant, but now I don't know how to go back."

"You can walk back." Fang Yueqi said.

"It's too far." Lin Xuanying looked unhappy.

"Then you unload the horse from the cart and ride back." Fang Yuesheng suggested.

"That's a mule." Lin Xuanying's face darkened.

"..."

Fang Yueqi coughed lightly: "Otherwise, let the coachman take Mr. Lin back, I just need to trouble the coachman to make another trip."

"Okay?" Fang Yuesheng looked at Lin Xuanying sincerely.

Lin Xuanying couldn't help laughing when she saw the two brothers who looked similar.When did he become so naive, why did he make trouble with these two little young masters who were in trouble.

Lin Xuanying stood up, flicked her sleeves, and said: "No need, Lin Wu and his wife are here to take care of the old lady and his wife. If there is anything, Lin Wu can't do without Lin Wu going out to make arrangements, so there is no need for him to run away for a while." No time. I’m going back first, and I’ll come to see you some other day.”

Fang Yuesheng and Fang Yueqi sent Lin Xuanying out of the gate.Fang Yueqi was a little embarrassed and said: "I let you in, and I only drank a few cups of tea. There is nothing to entertain Mr. Lin."

"It's all right." Lin Xuanying smiled, "I'm honored to be able to serve the two young masters." She bowed and raised her hands very politely as she spoke.

Fang Yuesheng said: "Mr. Lin, are you really not going to ride that mule? At least you can run on four legs."

"No need." Lin Xuanying stood up straight, snorted coldly with a black face, and strode away.

The two closed the courtyard door, and Lin Wu's daughter-in-law came over and said, "You two young masters, the old lady calls you over."

The two hurried to the old lady's room, where Mrs. Fang was already sitting.

The old lady is very old and is very afraid of the cold, and she doesn't care about the charcoal basin in the house. Mrs. Fang helps the old lady sit on the bed, leaning on the pillow behind her, covered with a thick quilt, so that she can carry the house. The cold inside and outside.

Both Fang Yuesheng and Fang Yueqi sat down on the low stools in front of the old lady's bed, and the old lady Fang touched her cheeks one by one before sighing: "Oh, finally the dust has settled, as long as people are fine, if they are fine good."

"The unworthy descendants made the old lady worry." Fang Yueqi choked up slightly.

The old lady patted the top of his head, and said softly: "This time our Fang family fell into such a big stumble, I can only hate the old friends from the old family who have made good friends in the past, none of them offered a helping hand, and they all hid far away. It's chilling. On the contrary, this Mr. Lin, who is generous in helping each other, spares no effort to hold back, is really a person worthy of friendship. You two, you must remember the kindness of others, no matter what, you should repay it. A friend in need is an even more precious friendship."

"Don't worry, old lady, we know." Fang Yuesheng said hastily, "Lin Xuanying is Ling Ji's friend, so he is naturally reliable."

When Mrs. Fang heard her son mention Ling Ji's name, her face suddenly became uneasy, and she interrupted: "Even if we want to repay, we are now penniless, and we still have to rely on Mr. Lin for help. This is not a long-term solution." What the old lady and I mean is that we should go back to our hometown first. At least there are houses and fields in our hometown, and the Duke of the State is also there. Our Fang family got rich back then. Now that the title has been taken away, we will rely on you to prosper in the future. The family is established."

The old lady nodded: "That's exactly the plan. Do you two have other ideas?"

Fang Yuesheng and Fang Yueqi looked at each other.They didn't plan to rely on Lin Xuanying all the time, but they had never thought about going back to their old house thousands of miles away and leaving the capital right away.

Now that they have been demoted to the common people, it is impossible to rely on their generation to make a comeback. They are criminals and cannot participate in the imperial examination at all.Only when they get married and start a business, have children, and rely on the next generation, may they be able to reproduce the glory of Fangfu.

Just thinking about those days, Fang Yuesheng suddenly felt panicked.

He wanted to say something, but Fang Yueqi grabbed him and said first: "The old lady is right, we will obey the elders' orders."

Mrs. Fang nodded in satisfaction and asked the two of them to go down and rest.

Seeing the two children walk out of the room, Mrs. Fang let out a sigh of relief. Thinking of Fang Yuesheng's appearance just now, she couldn't help but feel worried. Fang Yuesheng - he was only thinking about that Lingji, and he must not let him go on like this.

Mrs. Fang sighed helplessly.

What kind of crime is this? Nuo Da's Duke of Pingguo was framed and deprived of his title, and Sheng'er had an affair with that child Ling Ji.Ling Ji is also a good guy, just look at Lin Xuanying, who he has befriended, and you will know that things of a kind always gather together and people are divided into groups, and these two people will definitely do a lot in the future.If Sheng'er is a daughter, as long as Ling Ji asks, she will definitely marry Sheng'er to him.Happily -- alas.

Old Mrs. Fang and Mrs. Fang looked at each other silently, both of them were full of worries.

That night, Mrs. Fang Hou, who was sleeping drowsily, suddenly developed a high fever. Mrs. Fang was so startled that she called Lin Wu again and again, asking him to go out and see the doctor.

The small yard was suddenly in a hurry, causing people to turn their backs on their backs.After the doctor came, he took the pulse carefully and checked the doctor. He only said that Master Fang was overworked and worried about his health. Now he relaxed and fell ill all at once.This is not a serious illness, but it needs to be recuperated quietly, and it is not suitable to work more in the short term.

All of a sudden, the old lady and Mrs. Fang's planned return to their hometown was delayed.

To extend the doctor's consultation, and to buy some supplements to support Master Fang, the expenses suddenly increased, and the little silver left by Lin Xuanying was quickly used up.

Naturally, Fang Yueqi and Fang Yuesheng didn't want to bother Lin Xuanying, they piled up the valuables they found in the yard on the table, and worried about each other.

There were only two pieces of broken silver on the table, less than five taels, and some copper coins, less than a hundred wen, and the few pieces of jewelry Mrs. Fang secretly brought out from the mansion, but they were too expensive, and if they were pawned, they might cause trouble again. What a disaster.

"What should we do?" Fang Yueqi glanced at Fang Yuesheng.

"If you just sit at home, money won't come out for nothing." Fang Yuesheng took a deep breath, "Let's go to the street to see if there is any place where we can work, so we can earn some money so that we don't just sit and eat."

Fang Yueqi looked at Fang Yuesheng worriedly, and patted his hand.

"Leave the matter of making money to my brother. You were once the heir of the Hou family, so what should you do if you meet someone you know on the street?"

"I have nothing to be afraid of." Fang Yuesheng stood up and said with a sneer, "I didn't do anything wrong, and I didn't hurt my friends. Why should I be afraid of seeing those acquaintances? They should be afraid of seeing me." Cousin, you don't have to think too much, the matter of earning money to support the family should have been picked up by the two of us."

Seeing that Fang Yuesheng was so determined, Fang Yueqi didn't say anything more.

It's just that Fang Yuesheng will inevitably suffer more setbacks with such a naive idea.In the past, when he was rich, he was pampered and pampered, and he developed Fang Yuesheng's high-minded disposition not to pay attention to money and power. Now that he is down and down, Fang Yuesheng's embarrassing situation of losing money and power is not so hard to accept.

It's just that most people in the world hold the high and step down, how many people feel guilty towards their down-and-out friends because of their moral injustice?Especially those snobbish children from aristocratic families, if they run into Fang Yuesheng, they don't know what troubles will happen.

Fang Yueqi was worried, so he could only take Fang Yuesheng as far as possible to the civilian areas where dignitaries rarely come.
