When Fang Yingwu returned to the house, a servant brought breakfast. After Fang Yingwu greeted Sister Lan to have breakfast, he waited for Miss Wang to arrive.
Hearing the noise at the head of the courtyard, Fang Yingwu went out to greet him. From a distance he saw Miss Wang wearing a pink Luo shirt and a lavender jacket. She had a fair, oval face, her brows were as light as willow leaves, and her eyes were full of hope and energy.
.
Fang Yingwu inquired with the sergeant at the gate and found out that she was the sixth in the Wang family and was Wang Shu's eldest daughter, so she was respectfully addressed as Miss Six in the palace.
Miss Wang Sixth had a special status and was very likely to become a stepmother. Of course, Fang Yingwu did not dare to look too presumptuously, so he bowed his head slightly, greeted the gift, and invited Miss Sixth into the house.
Miss Wang Liu was accompanied by four or five maidservants, carrying various things. There were fruits, snacks, books, pens and ink, chess and cards, and everything else for food and use.
Miss Wang Liu was smiling and amiable, completely different from the cold and arrogant person she was when she was wearing a veil at Hanshan Temple yesterday.
This time and the other time, here is a home, there is a public place, now it is a "relative", then it is a stranger. Of course the attitude is different.
Miss Six asked very considerately: "It's often inconvenient to go out, so I picked up some food and supplies and delivered them to you early in the morning. You can see if there is anything missing. Don't be polite.
.”
This is really enthusiastic enough, but the more enthusiastic it is, the more uncomfortable it is for Fang Yingwu, who wants to leave. He keeps saying: "No shortage, no shortage, it's already good now."
Miss Wang Liu was very concerned about the other party's daily life, and asked warmly: "Did you sleep well last night? Is the bed soft or hard? It may rain in the next few days. Do you need to add a quilt?"
Fang Yingwu waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No need to bother."
"You're too polite, little brother. We didn't know each other yesterday, and it's just a little familiar. There's no need to meet today."
As she spoke, Miss Six thought of something again, stretched out her hand to pat him, and saw two middle-aged women coming in from the outside. Miss Six pointed at Fang Yingwu and said, "Young Master Fang is here. You guys will measure his physique and cut a few pieces."
Summer clothes must be made of good materials.”
The waves of enthusiasm that hit his face made Fang Yingwu a little bit unbearable, "I accept it from the bottom of my heart. I really have nothing to ask for right now."
Miss Wang Liu covered her mouth with a smile and said, "You are still polite. It seems that your father has never told you in detail. I will tell you now that your father and I had an oral engagement. Therefore, we can be regarded as a family. You regard this place as a family."
Just stay at home."
Fang Yingwu was stunned. Not only was she having an affair with her father, but she also had an oral engagement? So this Miss Six, who seemed to be only one or two years older than herself, was really her stepmother?
Although I have always vaguely had this idea, I have never seen anyone mention it with certainty. Even Wang Shu only said, "I want to marry a girl."
Now that I suddenly heard her affirmative answer, it felt really strange. Do I have to call a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl my mother in the future?
In this way, Miss Six is going to make an emotional investment in herself today. After all, she was in a hurry yesterday and spent most of her time talking to Wang Shu. She had no chance to make a good sale.
"We met each other in a hurry yesterday and didn't bother to ask many questions. It's because I didn't care enough about you. Did you go to school when you were in the county?"
Fang Yingwu answered honestly: "The first in the county examination, the second in the government examination, and the second in the Tao examination. The great master of the Spring and Autumn Period valued it and appointed Lin Shan Sheng Yuan."
This result is still very shameful, and there is nothing wrong with saying it.
Miss Wang Liu let out a soft cry of surprise, opened her eyes wide and said, "This is great. With the blessing of ancestor Shi, there is someone to follow the Fang family's business! I am very happy."
What kind of gesture is she doing? Fang Yingwu is sweating profusely. Is this young lady's reaction too exaggerated?
Now that things have happened, he can finally see that Miss Wang Liu is putting herself in the position of her mother, imitating her mother's accent and talking to him.
Fang Yingwu was very moved by her seriousness and believed that she sincerely wanted to have a good relationship with his future stepson. But in his heart, he still had to complain that the acting was very stiff, his acting skills were too poor, and there were many traces of polishing.
And it can also be seen that she is worried that after being forcibly detained, she will be dissatisfied and resentful, which will make it difficult to get along with her in the future, so she tried every means to resolve it today.
But deep down in his heart, he did not want to stay in Suzhou at all, and this could not be resolved. However, her attitude was an opportunity, and it seemed that he could take advantage of it.
After thinking about this, Fang Yingwu said sincerely: "Although Liangyuan is good, it is not a place to stay for a long time. I take all the good intentions with heart. I am thinking about my father now, and I hope you will raise your hand and not hinder me."
Miss Wang Liu explained: "My father has no ill intentions towards you, and I have no ill intentions towards you. I treat you as a descendant of my family. Don't take it to heart."
Fang Yingwu couldn't help but said loudly: "Don't say these useless things! How can you make me not take it to heart? I have my ambitions, and I don't want to ask anything from your Wang family!
What qualifications do you have to be so superior that you decide whether those below should stay or go? My surname is Fang, not Wang!"
Fang Yingwu spoke with anger and was very rude, and Miss Wang Liu's temper gradually became worse, "This is for your own good! There is no benefit to you going to the capital, so it is better to stay in Suzhou!"
Fang Yingwu sighed and asked very heart-wrenchingly: "Do you, the Wang family, want to take me as a hostage?"
Miss Six was stunned, "Why are you being used as a hostage?"
"Who knows, the son left by his ex-wife is always an eyesore."
Miss Wang felt that all her good intentions were betrayed, and said angrily: "How could you say such hurtful words!"
Of course Fang Yingwu knew that Wang Shu didn't mean this. Whether judging from yesterday's observations or historical reviews, the old man would not do such a thing. If he really had this kind of intention, he would not accuse himself of coveting glory and wealth.
But it was precisely because of this that he dared to say this. It was a kind of provocation to tell Wang Shu that the young master was already suspicious and be careful of rumors like this spreading.
If Wang Shu really had this intention and Fang Yingwu didn't dare to point it out, it would be tantamount to forcing the other party to be cruel.
This method is indeed a bit damaging, as it means taking advantage of other people's feelings. But Fang Yingwu really has no other way besides this. He has no power, no soldiers, no courage, and he is fighting away from home, so he doesn't do anything in terms of reputation.
Why should we fight for our own rights when we are making a fuss?
Miss Wang Liu couldn't understand why Fang Yingwu, who was quite sensible just now, suddenly became so unreasonable and could hurt people's hearts with every word he said. What kind of petty thoughts are these!
She stood up angrily, "Just wait, I'll go talk to my father!"
Fang Yingwu quickly stood up and said goodbye, "Slow down!" (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
