A few days after Fang Zilan sent Mrs. Yang and her son away, the Yang family came to visit. The Censor's Office also followed suit, and a steady stream of excerpts about her participation were sent to Li Shengxuan.
However, the Yang family who boarded the gate of the Duke of Yue's Mansion did not even see Fang Zilan, and were driven away by Zheng Yan. The original words were, "The Duke of Yue's Mansion is not a place for people to mess around. If there is evidence, just go to Jingzhao." The Yin Mansion filed a complaint."
Li Shengxuan also said the same thing. After all, Fang Zilan, as Yang Zhiqing's boss, was extremely concerned about his family after his murder. It would be unjustifiable to say that she was hiding Mrs. Yang's mother and son because of this.
The Yang family was gnashing their teeth with hatred, and the Yushitai was also resentful. However, Fang Zilan did this matter in a flawless manner, leaving no evidence at all. For a while, the Jingzhao Yin Mansion was also in a dilemma, so they could only count Mrs. Yang as her mother and son for the time being. Treated as missing.
When Xiao Xuan'er and Fang Zilan were talking about this, Fang Lihui was also beside him. His smile was quite showy, "How is it, Lord Fang? Are you satisfied?"
"Satisfied." Fang Zilan nodded, "But seeing how laid-back Mr. Fang is, I think the money you owe me will be delivered soon, right?"
Fang Lihui's expression paused, and he shook his folding fan lightly and said, "Master Fang, the two-year period promised has not yet arrived..."
"Since the money you owe me hasn't been collected yet, why did you come to my house?" Fang Zilan interrupted Fang Lihui unceremoniously. He coughed lightly, "Master Fang, I am in urgent need of a helper. Please help me." Ah, young master, leave it to me."
"I don't want to, what's the use of telling me." Fang Zilan took the tea cup at hand and took a sip.
"Lord Fang, can you allow me to see this young master?" Fang Lihui spoke sincerely. Fang Zilan put down the tea cup, thought for a moment, and finally nodded.
Fang Lihui looked at the thatched cottage three times and felt satisfied, but Ah Shi never agreed, so she never let go. But now Fang Lihui just wanted to see Ah Shi, and it was not an excessive request, so she couldn't refuse him outright.
Xiao Xuan'er led Ah Shi into the hall. Seeing that Fang Lihui was a little reserved, he quickly bowed and then looked at Fang Zilan, "Master Fang, are you looking for me?"
"I'm not looking for you, it's Mr. Fang who wants to see you." Fang Zilan pursed her lips after saying, "I asked Miss Xiao to invite you over without asking you. You..."
She didn't say anything further, but Ah Shi curved the corners of his lips and waved his hands: "It doesn't matter, since Mr. Fang wants to see me, then just meet me." When he spoke, he looked at Fang Zilan with his bright eyes, showing indescribable concentration. serious.
Fang Lihui looked thoughtfully at the young man in front of him, and then glanced at Fang Zilan. He had some calculations in his mind, stood up and saluted, "Master Fang, I have a merciless request."
Fang Zilan didn't speak, and Fang Lihui continued talking to himself, "I would like to ask Young Master Ah to come with me to stay in Fang Mansion for three days. After three days, he will decide whether to stay in Fang's house. I wonder if Mr. Fang agrees? "
"Ah Shi is free to come and go, I will not be his master." Fang Zilan said calmly, Ah Shi opened his mouth to speak but stopped, "Master Fang, I..."
"It doesn't matter, you can make your own decision." Fang Zilan softened her tone, with obvious encouragement and comfort in her eyes.
Hearing this, Ah Shi seemed to feel relieved, but before he could speak, Fang Lihui said, "Young Master, don't be too busy rejecting me."
Ah Shi was stunned, and gave Fang Lihui the opportunity to follow his instructions, "Ah, young master, our Fang family has been in business for generations, and we have always had our own skills in accounting. If you come here, you will definitely learn a lot, even if you are three It won’t be a loss if you don’t stay in the future, right?”
Seeing that Ah Shi was wavering, Fang Lihui put away the folding fan and continued: "With your ability, the more you learn, the more you can help Mr. Fang. Aren't you willing?"
"I do." Ah Shi blurted out, then realized what he had said and suddenly covered his mouth.
Fang Lihui raised his eyebrows and raised his lips with a charming smile. Seeing this, Ah Shi slowly put down his hand, lowered his eyes and said, "As long as I can help Mr. Fang, I am willing to do anything."
It was a very light sentence, but it revealed unspeakable firmness. When the young man raised his eyes to look at Fang Zilan again, there was an edge that was determined to win in his eyes.
Fang Zilan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought it was her illusion. Just as she was about to analyze it carefully, the young man had already curbed his sharpness and was still as obedient as before.
Fang Lihui took in the whole scene, and the smile on his face became even brighter. He held out his folding fan to cover it up a little, "Since Young Master Ah Shi has agreed, if Mr. Fang has no objection, I will take him away today."
Fang Zilan didn't say anything more, and Fang Lihui didn't stay much, and led Ah Shi back to Fang's house.
Everyone in the Fang family was somewhat curious about the Ah Shi that Fang Lihui brought back. He looked very good, especially his eyes, which were so clear that it seemed as if he could penetrate all the secrets in the world. However, he had a very cold temperament, was taciturn and methodical. In the past three days, he had hardly been anywhere else except the accounting room and the wing room.
As he said, Fang Lihui had no secrets. As long as Ah Shi wanted to see the Fang family's account books, he could get his hands on them. During this period, the accountant and the housekeeper also chatted with him, but he dismissed them lightly.
Three days later, in the evening, after Ah Shi had dinner, Fang Lihui came to the side room to look for him, "Young Master, the three-day period has come. What do you think?"
Ah Shi was silent for a while, then asked without answering, "Does Mr. Fang want me to stay in the Fang family?"
"Of course I hope." Fang Lihui smiled slightly, but his hand holding the fan handle tightened involuntarily.
"In that case, let's make an offer." Ah Shi looked calm, "If Mr. Fang's offer satisfies me, I will stay in the Fang family."
"I don't need to make an offer." The smile on Fang Lihui's face faded a bit, "As long as your target is Mr. Fang, staying in the Fang family is the best choice."
Ah Shi met his gaze, completely free of the embarrassment of having her thoughts exposed. She was completely different from the obedient and shy young man next to Zi Lan in front of her. "I want to be someone who can stand side by side with Mr. Fang. I am not the only one from the Fang family." A choice."
"Yes." Fang Lihui's fingers caressed the folding fan inch by inch, and the shrewd look in his eyes was clearly visible, "But other options are not good enough."
As he spoke, he put the folding fan in his hand on the table and said word by word: "My young master, although you are extremely talented, you are now over sixteen, half an age. If you want to achieve success in learning in a short time, , or even being able to stand side by side with Mr. Fang, do you have any better choice besides the Fang family?"
"Young Master Fang, do you think you can convince me with just a few words?" Ah Shi smiled suddenly, his eyes still extremely clear, but with an inexplicable coldness, "I am not indispensable to the Fang family, but Young Master Fang is indispensable to me, right? "
Fang Lihui also smiled, and he indeed saw the right person. Just based on what I found in three days, I dared to negotiate terms with him. It's a pity that I don't have to use this kind of manipulation of people's minds in shopping malls.
He simply looked like he had been poked in a sore spot and said generously: "Young master, you might as well just tell me, what do you want?"
