After seeing off Master Li, Fang Yingwu sighed. Although he didn't like the petty and snobbish Master Li, the task had to be done. Whether it could be accomplished was another matter. At least he had to show his enthusiasm for doing it.
manner.
If you help, just help. If the master is doing well, it will not be a bad thing for him. I hope that in this time and space, this old man will not rebel with King Ning forty years later.
But experience and lessons taught him that Liu Mianmian was not easy to deal with, so he had to bite the bullet. But after making up his mind, Fang Yingwu relaxed, could he still eat himself? Anyway, if you extend your head and shrink your head, it will be the same as a knife.
Fang Yingwu looked up at the sun again. It was noon. According to general rules, Liu Ji should have skipped work and would be home soon. So Fang Yingwu had dinner at home again, and in the afternoon he went out to visit Liu's house.
.
A quarter of an hour later, Fang Yingwu arrived at Liu's house and saw about five or six people waiting outside the gate of Liu's house. Only Fang Yingwu was cordially invited into the concierge by the gatekeeper, and was given a seat and tea.
——It is said that in the three-acre land inside and outside the gate of Liu family, this is the treatment of the third grade, and the ministers and ministers will not even think about it.
The gatekeeper poured the tea himself, and the other party responded: "My master is not in the house at this time. He has not come back since he went to court today."
Fang Yingwu was surprised as he served tea. The sun didn't come out from the west today. Did Liu Mianmian actually fulfill his duties and didn't leave early?
He couldn't help but think again, this official could have said it earlier, then he turned around and left, why should he invite himself in to sit down and drink tea before saying it? It was a waste of time.
"Young Master Fang, don't be anxious." The gatekeeper seemed to know what Fang Yingwu was thinking, "My mistress said before that next time Young Master Fang comes to the house, she wants to see you, so she will go in and report to the mistress.
."
Fang Yingwu was surprised. He said helplessly: "I have nothing now. How can I go see your mistress? I'll see you next time!" The gatekeeper replied: "My mistress said it's okay. I don't need to see anyone else when I'm a guest."
Is this the legendary mother-in-law and son-in-law? Fang Yingwu could only wait for the summons. After waiting for a while, someone came out and led Fang Yingwu towards the house. All the way through the halls and corridors, it was more beautiful than before.
When I visited, I went deeper and went all the way to the garden behind.
At this time, I saw a group of people in the garden. Among them was an old woman who was in her fifties, and there was a woman in her thirties sitting next to her. She was surrounded by five or six maids and servants.
Looking at this scene, it seems that women are having fun in the back garden after dinner. Although I have never seen it before, Fang Yingwu can certainly tell that the old woman sitting in the middle must be Liu Mianhua's first wife, his wife in the future.
My mother-in-law, the woman next to her was unrecognizable.
Being led forward, Fang Yingwu clasped his fists in greeting and said in a neither humble nor overbearing tone: "Fang Yingwu was born late and has met the old lady."
Youdao is that the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at her, the happier she becomes. What's more, Fang Ying's goods are in good condition, he is handsome, and he is a promising young prodigy with a bright future. It is also a good thing to give others face when he takes it out.
Therefore, Madam Liu only looked at her with a smile on her face, nodded repeatedly, raised her hand to support her and said: "We are all members of our own family, so why should we be polite?"
Fang Yingwu took advantage of the situation and stood up straight. Mrs. Liu pointed to the beautiful woman next to her and said, "This is the inner room of your eldest brother of the Liu family. Her surname is Jiang. You can just call her sister-in-law." Fang Yingwu said yes.
He said politely: "I have met my sister-in-law."
After that, Mrs. Liu took Fang Yingwu and asked her about things. She talked about a lot of common things about food, clothing, housing and housing, and Fang Yingwu answered patiently and carefully. He had been an orphan for most of his two lives. This was the first time he had experienced this.
, which made him feel very fresh. He didn’t find it annoying at all.
Fang Yingwu's attitude was more pleasing to the old man, and for a moment he felt that there was no better son-in-law in the world than this. Mrs. Liu then said: "Your two brothers from the Liu family have returned to their hometown, and they are not in the house now. I can't call you to see you."
We’ve met. Although the wedding won’t take place until a while later, we can move around frequently without seeing anyone outside.”
Mrs. Jiang, the eldest mistress next to her, chuckled and said to the old lady in a slightly bitter tone: "Mother said this too late. Brother Fang had been walking around the house a lot. Otherwise, how could his father have identified him?"
."
These words made Fang Yingwu very unpleasant to listen to, as if he was groveling to please the Liu family... The Fang family had never begged Liu Mianhua to get married, and Fang Yingwu was also a young man who had no worries about getting married.
Okay? Without Liu Mianhua, there is still Li Dongyang.
Originally, Fang Yingwu was about to speak sarcastically back, but after thinking about it, he held back. Now the situation is different. In front of his mother-in-law, he should behave more honestly and earn some sympathy points. Even if he can win the quarrel, that's fine.
A loser with some emotional intelligence wouldn't do this.
So Fang Yingwu could only secretly adjust his facial muscles, squeeze out a few smiles, and tell the old lady that he didn't care at all, he was very magnanimous, broad-minded, and calm.
Mrs. Liu smiled back, the atmosphere was not ruined, and the scene was still enjoyable.
But at this moment, a little maid suddenly stood up from behind, raised her finger and pointed at the eldest mistress, and asked in a soft voice: "What you said makes no sense! The Fang family's little brother comes to the house a lot.
Not much, that’s the master’s decision, it’s not your wife’s turn to make irresponsible remarks!”
The atmosphere suddenly froze, and Fang Yingwu was speechless. After all, the Liu family is also a prime minister, and the rules in the house should be strict. How come there is such a defiant little maid? Even if the maid is loved by the master, she cannot be outside.
Just slap the young mistress’s mouth in public in front of others?
This little maid was so rude that she almost poked Miss Jiang's nostrils with her fingers, but there was no one around to stop her. She just lowered her head, pretending she didn't see anything.
Mrs. Liu smiled bitterly, stretched out her hand and slapped off the little maid's white little finger, "You little girl, before I get over, you should protect yourself first! Go back to the house!"
Although the old lady didn't say anything clearly, if Fang Yingwu was so stupid that he didn't understand, then he wouldn't be worthy of standing here and being treated like the filthy son-in-law of Liu Mianhua's family...
It should be said that Fang Yingwu had never seen her before, but that was nearly three years ago, and the two previous times were glimpses from a distance, so the impression was really vague. Not to mention that a young lady was developing in her teens.
The fastest and biggest changes, so Fang Yingwu didn't recognize it this time.
The "little maid"'s face turned red, she twisted her waist and carried Fang Yingwu on her back, lifted up her skirt, took small steps, and disappeared outside the moon gate of the garden in the blink of an eye.
As if in a flash of lightning, Fang Yingwu still had time to take a few quick glances at the young lady's face - her eyebrows were thin and long, like Liu Mianmian; her eyes were round, like an old lady's; she had a small nose and a small mouth.
It's like...the person has turned around.
Seeing Fang Yingwu staring at the moon gate without saying anything, Mrs. Liu laughed and said: "My tutor is not good enough, I made my little brother laugh!" (To be continued...)
