When the echo from outside the door came in, the calm of the Fang family mansion was not broken.
In fact, everyone was already waiting in the yard in front of the gate.
The Fang family didn't know about it when Fang Chengyu entered the city, but when he entered the county government office, his entourage had already reported him.
Mrs. Fang was so excited that she almost fainted.
The news was also coming day by day. She was counting day by day, but she never calculated that it would arrive in these few days.
"Mom, let's go to the county government office to pick up my little brother." Fang Yunxiu also cried happily.
Yuanshi even had to ask someone to prepare a car.
"No." Mrs. Fang stopped crying. She wiped her tears and sat upright. "He went to the county government to help his grandmother. We won't cause trouble. We will wait for him at home."
The waiting time felt really long.
Her son, who had never been away from her before, finally came back after being away from home for so long. He was in the county government office not far away, less than half an hour away from her.
Mrs. Fang felt that the wait was longer than the past two months.
When she heard the voice of the young master coming back from outside the door, Mrs. Fang felt that her whole life was over.
The servants on both sides shouted joyfully, and many people ran towards the door.
Yuanshi and Fang Yunxiu originally wanted to greet her at the gate immediately, but when they saw Mrs. Fang sitting still, they stopped and looked around happily.
However, it wasn't that Mrs. Fang didn't want to get up to greet him, it was because she simply didn't have the strength to get up. She held the handrail tightly and looked at the door.
A young man appeared in sight.
Mrs. Fang's eyes instantly blurred with tears.
She knew it was her son without looking clearly.
So much like his father when he was young.
She had been unable to remember her husband's appearance at first, but when she saw this figure, her memory came back.
When her husband died, she carried the child until she gave birth smoothly. Looking at the infant child, she wondered countless times whether he would be like his father when he grew up.
She can laugh, start to stand, crawl, and walk. She is growing up day by day. She is longing for, imagining, and looking forward to.
Then everything came to an abrupt end when the child was five years old.
All her longings and expectations were gone. She didn't expect him to do great achievements when he grew up. She didn't expect him to take on the important responsibilities of the family. She only prayed that he could live for one more day and two or three days more.
"mother."
The young man's voice rang in his ears.
Only then did Mrs. Fang see Fang Chengyu standing in front of her.
"Madam, madam." Mrs. Yuan cried and stretched out her hand to help her.
Fang Chengyu had already reached out to hold down her arm, and then he knelt down.
"Mom." He looked up at her and smiled, "I'm back."
The healthy and hopeful child of tomorrow is back.
Those longed-for joyful days of chessboards are back.
Mrs. Fang hugged him and started crying.
"Chengyu is sorry, it was me who hurt you in the first place," she cried.
After so many years, she was finally able to say this sentence loudly with her own mouth.
Fang Yunxiu leaned on Yuanshi's arm and couldn't stand crying. Yuanshi patted her and helped her, with tears streaming down her face.
The girls and servants all over the courtyard started crying.
Old Mrs. Fang and Fang Yuxiu, who had been following Fang Chengyu slowly, just returned at this time, stood at the door and couldn't help crying again.
There was a cry in the Fang family's residence. If at other times, people outside on the street would have heard it, they would have thought that someone in the cursed Fang family had died again, but no one would think so now.
"Crying with joy."
"I really have to cry. Even though it has nothing to do with me, I still want to cry."
The people outside who came to watch the excitement said one after another.
But amidst all the festive cries, a sharp shout rang out.
"Where is my lady?"
Liu'er ran out of it at some point and bumped into the crowd, but could not find Miss Jun.
The little girl didn't cry, she turned her head, raised her eyebrows, glared and screamed.
"Did you throw away my young lady?"
The sad atmosphere immediately dissipated. Seeing Liu'er rushing towards her, the girls did not dare to stop her. Fang Chengyu stood up and let go of Mrs. Fang Da, then turned around and held her.
"No, I rushed back because I had something to do. She took her time and walked slowly so as not to have too much trouble." He said with a smile.
Liu'er looked at him with disbelief.
"Really?" she said.
Fang Chengyu took out a letter and handed it to her.
"This is what your lady wrote for you," he said.
Liu'er stretched out her hand doubtfully.
"I'm telling you, don't try to imitate my lady's handwriting. I studied and wrote with my lady." She said, opening the letter as she spoke, "I want to use the bed of pothos flowers, the curtain is made of lotus gauze, and the flower room
It’s up to you to pick the flowers, as long as they are fresh…”
She read, the worry and anger on her face dissipated, replaced by a wide smile.
"...I will arrive about the day after you meet the young master."
When she saw the last sentence, she took the letter in her hand and turned around and ran away.
"I will clean up the house as the lady ordered."
She ran away, and the atmosphere here was interrupted.
"Young Master is also tired. Come on, let's go in and talk." Yuanshi wiped away her tears and said with a smile.
The sadness dissipated, leaving only joy. The family went in lively, and the maids and servants happily prepared the banquet. Now these are the only people in the family. Old Mrs. Fang did not hide the fact that Fang Chengyu killed County Magistrate Li.
Everybody.
Mrs. Fang took a deep breath and looked filled with sadness and anger.
Fang Yunxiu also raised her hands to wipe away tears.
"It was really an advantage for him to die so happily," Yuanshi said bitterly, wiping away her tears.
Mrs. Fang stretched out her hand to hold Fang Chengyu, looking pleased and pitiful.
"If you can personally avenge your grandfather and father, they will be able to rest in peace," she said.
"Yeah, I really didn't expect that my little brother would do it so happily." Fang Yunxiu said, "I dare to kill someone in front of so many officials."
The explanation given by Fang Chengyu at the time was that blood feuds are hard to resolve.
But it is not easy to do this, after all, it is killing someone.
Fang Chengyu smiled.
"Sister, I am the least afraid of life and death, and also the most courageous." He said, "Don't forget, I am the person closest to death."
First he is sick and waiting to die, then he acts as a bait on the road and waits to die.
He was sitting in the car, and there was a fight outside, with blood splattered on the car window and the car curtain.
Although the knife didn't hit him at all, it seemed like a knife was hitting him.
He didn't hold a knife, but he walked out of this bloody battlefield with countless murders in his heart.
As night falls, the hustle and bustle outside becomes silent, but occasionally there is laughter coming from the little girls running around.
"Hurry up, hurry up, the young master is giving you red envelopes himself."
A little girl shouted at the courtyard door.
Fang Jinxiu was sitting by the window, her eyes turning dully. When she heard these words, she suddenly became alert and her eyes suddenly lit up.
Master?
Chengyu?
She grabbed the window bars violently.
"Who?" she shouted.
She hadn't spoken for a long time, and her voice was hoarse and stiff, which was weird.
The little girls turned around when they heard this and looked at Fang Jinxiu by the window with hesitant expressions.
"The young master is back." One girl finally said, then she ignored him and took the other girl and ran away.
Chengyu is back?
It turns out that the crying outside during the day was Chengyu's return.
"How is he? How is he?" She stood up holding the window, almost leaning out of the window, and shouted urgently.
The little girls had run away long ago, and no one paid attention to her.
Fang Jinxiu jumped out of the window.
Because she was weak and fell to the ground, she pushed herself up with all her strength.
Go and see, go and see, how is Chengyu?
