She didn't sleep all night, and many people in the Fang family must also have stayed up all night.
He looked at the housekeeper who was relieved to see her back at the door, and then looked at Fang Chengyu who quickly came out of Mrs. Fang's room.
"Have you eaten yet?"
"You must not have eaten so early, right?"
Fang Chengyu said with a smile, without asking her where she was going or what happened, as if she was relaxed and casual as usual when she woke up in the morning, but how could he hide the anxiety between his brows after a sleepless night.
Last night I suddenly lost my temper and left home all night, and at such a nervous time, they must have gone crazy.
"I'm sorry for making you worry." Miss Jun said apologetically.
Fang Chengyu's eyes narrowed as he smiled.
"No way, there must be nothing wrong with what you do." He said, "We believe in you."
"Yes, we believe it." Old Mrs. Fang was sitting in the room and said after hearing this, "But I hope you can respect us too, Jun Zhenzhen, we are human beings, not stones."
I know how I am worried and scared for you, how I am anxious and uneasy, how I want to find you but I am afraid of causing trouble to her, so why don't you just say sorry?
"Jun Zhenzhen, this is not the first time." Mrs. Fang said with a serious face, "You have gone too far. Who do you think we are..."
Before she finished speaking, she saw the woman in front of her suddenly burst into tears.
Old Mrs. Fang was startled, and the rest of her words stopped abruptly.
Fang Chengyu almost cried, although she didn't know why she was crying.
"Jiu Ling, Jiu Ling, don't be sad." He said hurriedly.
Miss Jun had already raised her hand to wipe away the two tears that fell, and smiled at them.
She couldn't tell whether she was sad or something else. She was feeling quite complicated when she heard Mrs. Fang's words. Who do you think we are? Yes, who are they? Jun Zhenzhen's relatives, people who made their fortune with the money from her great-grandfather's life.
, but he is also a pitiful person.
She looked at Old Mrs. Fang. The years had engraved vicissitudes on this old woman's face, and the hardships she had experienced could not be concealed even under the splendid clothing and food. Her relatives had passed away one after another without explanation, and her descendants had been waiting for death in despair for ten years.
She remembered what Old Mrs. Fang had said when she guessed the truth. She was so determined that if you want your subjects to die, they have to die. This kind of determination is both despair and pride.
Miss Jun suddenly remembered the names of Mr. Fang and Mr. Fang. One was called Fang Shouyi and the other was Fang Nianjun. They kept their righteousness and thought of you. They worked hard and wholeheartedly. Do you think it is an honor for you to do what you do?
It's a pity that the money they held was bloody and shameful, and there was nothing to be proud of.
Not only is there no glory, but it may also be aiding the evildoers, and the only disaster is to kill someone by crossing a river and destroying a bridge.
Did Mr. Fang Zeng know the true origin of the money?
If you say you don’t know, then why do you not hesitate to cut off all family ties and make your own family become a lonely person? People in the world say this is because of greed for money and ruthlessness, but can’t it also be said that they cut off the blood relatives in the family to avoid being implicated?
This is what Old Master Zeng did. Was Old Mrs. Fang told to treat her own relatives in this way, even if she had to bear the reputation of being disowned by her relatives?
Do they know it or not? If so, how much do they know?
Or maybe they don’t know anything, but as Zhu Zan said, ministers are naturally wary of the emperor, and they seek wealth and honor in danger. With wealth and honor, there is bound to be danger, so they are on guard in advance to prevent a disaster from overthrowing the entire clan.
And what happened back then? Since it was the ransom money used for peace talks with the Kingdom of Jin, why did it come to Shandong again? How was the Fang family chosen to do this? Why did the late emperor write such an imperial edict again?
?
There are too many details that I don’t know, and it’s hard to understand what is going on.
A few drops of cold water suddenly splashed on her face, mixed with the fishy smell of plant ash. Miss Jun was clever and saw Old Mrs. Fang standing in front of her, dipping her finger from a water bowl, and then flicking it over again.
"Grandma, what are you doing?" Miss Jun asked in a hurry to avoid.
"Exorcise evil spirits." Old Mrs. Fang said simply, looking at her, "Do you want to cry and laugh at the same time? You can't control yourself. Maybe you have encountered evil spirits."
Miss Jun laughed, her eyes were a little sore, and she nodded again.
"Maybe, maybe my grandfather was very happy to see me for the first time," she said.
"Your grandfather is not someone who scares children." Old Mrs. Fang said.
"Jiu Ling, are you okay?" Fang Chengyu asked hurriedly. He winked at Jiu Ling and leaned closer to her in a low voice, "Hurry up and say it, or else I'll let you drink this plant ash water."
Miss Jun smiled and nodded.
"Okay, it means it works, and you have to drink it." Mrs. Fang said with a cold face when she heard it.
Miss Jun smiled.
"Grandma, you don't believe in ghosts and gods," she said. "Don't worry, I'm fine. I just thought of something and lost my temper. I didn't wander around last night. I went to a friend to talk for a while."
Does she have friends? Old Mrs. Fang thought, how rare.
Fang Chengyu looked aggrieved, which was really annoying.
"You don't have to worry about procrastination." Mrs. Fang said simply, "You have set up the stage, and then we will sing."
Her expression was a little relaxed and a little proud.
"We are good at things like singing and opera."
After saying that, he motioned for Miss Jun to sit down.
"I thought about it last night and discussed it with Chengyu. I will continue to file a complaint from Jinxiu..."
Seeing Mrs. Fang in high spirits and looking like she was going to discuss how to do it in detail with her, Miss Jun couldn't bear to interrupt. It was she who asked Mrs. Fang to think about what to do all night, but she spent the whole night thinking about not doing it.
"Jiuling, do you have any new ideas?" Fang Chengyu said suddenly, interrupting Mrs. Fang.
Mrs. Fang also looked at her.
Miss Jun took a deep breath.
"I think it's better to let them take it," she said.
Old Mrs. Fang looked a little stunned.
"Ah?" She didn't seem to hear clearly.
"I've thought about it, and procrastination is not an option." Miss Jun said it fluently in one sentence, "There is no way to prevent thieves. Since they are bound to get it, if they don't get it, they will definitely become angry and angry.
We are not good, so we might as well avoid their sharp edges."
Mrs. Fang said oh, she seemed to understand but she didn't seem to understand.
The silence made the atmosphere in the room a bit strange.
"I didn't think about it well before. Although I guessed some things, after seeing those things, I feel that my original considerations were somewhat inappropriate." Miss Jun continued, with a look of shame.
The shame was real, but certainly not due to ill-considered thoughts.
The room was silent again.
When Miss Jun wanted to say something more, Mrs. Fang spoke first.
"Okay." She nodded and said simply.
Miss Jun looked at her and didn't know what to say.
"Thank you." she said.
Mrs. Fang smiled.
"Thank you, this is what we should do." She said.
Miss Jun was silent for a moment.
"The soldiers will stop us, and then we will continue to do what we should do." She said, then paused, "Grandma, don't worry."
Don't worry, although she had to cover up the origin of the money, it didn't mean that she could let the emperor do whatever he wanted.
Zhu Zan was right, no matter what the imperial grandfather did back then, it was not for King Qi to do evil. Her father and the Fang family should have been killed in vain.
This is still justice, and there must be justice in this world.
Miss Jun bowed and left. Seeing Miss Jun go out, Mrs. Fang sighed softly.
"Grandma, thank you." Fang Chengyu also said, "Don't blame Jiuling for going back on her word."
Mrs. Fang smiled and her expression returned to solemnity.
"It's her fault for what she did. The cause and the result have nothing to do with her," she said. "This is my business."
After speaking here, he paused again and looked at the figure of the woman who had disappeared from his sight.
"What's more, she was really frightened. Making such a decision after a night, I don't think it is child's play."
Fang Chengyu nodded and took Old Mrs. Fang's arm.
"Grandma, no matter what happens next, we are not afraid," he said.
Mrs. Fang nodded.
"What are you afraid of?" she said and smiled, "Didn't she say that there is justice in this world?" (To be continued)
