Seeing that Fang Xu noticed her, Peng Xiuying shrank her neck, looking frightened, and moved closer to Master Liu.
"This..." Mr. Liu looked embarrassed, touched his nose with some guilt, and whispered, "It's my cousin who came from afar to seek refuge."
"It's my cousin. I thought she was the concubine adopted by my father-in-law." Fang Xu said in a brisk tone, with a smile in his eyes, "Look at my thoughts, cousin, please don't take it to heart."
Hearing this, Liu Fanyin couldn't help laughing, covered her mouth and chuckled, and the grievances in her heart were relieved.
Hearing the voice of Fang Xu's words, Peng Xiuying's face was as dark as ink, she bit her lower lip, raised her hand and pinched Mr. Liu's lower back, as if she was complaining or coquettishly.
Mr. Liu was in pain, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. He only dared to smile and smooth things over, "My mother-in-law, please sit inside. It's time for dinner now, so I'll order the kitchen to prepare it."
Fang Xu raised his lips, with a warm smile between his brows, and slowly withdrew his gaze, saying softly, "It's just for dinner. The house is still waiting for us to return home. It's getting late, so I took Fanyin back first. "
After saying that, he looked sideways at Liu Fanyin who was standing not far away and said in a deep voice, "Go home."
Liu Fanyin said nothing, but walked towards Fang Xu without hesitation.
Looking at the backs of his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Mr. Liu didn't react for a moment. It wasn't until Peng Xiuying pinched him again that he suddenly came back to his senses and subconsciously shouted, "Stop!"
Fang Xu paused slightly, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and he slowly looked back at Mr. Liu who was obviously stunned, "Is this the father-in-law who is talking loudly to me?"
Mr. Liu pursed his lips, his eyes couldn't stop wandering, he didn't dare to look at Fang Xu, and he said haha, "My mother-in-law, it's not that Liu is deliberately making things difficult, it's that Fanyin's mother just left, and she is the only one in the family." A daughter, if she is not here..."
"I'm afraid my father-in-law has forgotten that you have a cousin." Fang Xu tilted his head slightly, his gaze fell on Peng Xiuying's pale face, and his smile became brighter, "Fan Yin is still young and not as safe as my cousin. She is also Since they are relatives, they can naturally handle the funeral of my mother-in-law in an orderly manner."
Fang Xu called Peng Xiuying's name again, making her pale face look even more haggard. She subconsciously shrank her shoulders and whispered, "Mrs. Yongchenghou, I came from a poor family, and I have never done anything like this in my daily life. .”
"Look at my cousin, Liu Fufeng, who can be so weak at such a young age. She is so charming and charming that I, a woman, feel pity for her. How could she be from a poor family?" Fang Xu said calmly, holding her up with a half-squinted smile.
"I guess I was mistaken when I first walked in. How could such a wonderful person with such a temperament be a concubine? At the very least, she should be a lady."
Everyone likes to hear nice words, and so does Peng Xiuying.
Listening to Mrs. Hou's compliment, she felt like her tail was raised to the sky.
Looking at Peng Xiuying's expression, Fang Xu's eyes flashed with a trace of sarcasm, but the praise on his lips did not stop, "Cousin, please don't be humble anymore, I leave this matter in your hands, my father-in-law will definitely be relieved."
"Besides, now that the mistress of the Liu family has passed away, my father-in-law must be very busy, so my cousin has no intention of doing anything for him?"
Peng Xiuying paused, raised her eyes, looked at Mr. Liu with a downcast expression, and chuckled, "I am willing to help my cousin manage the house."
Mr. Liu's eyes were like cold pools. He glanced at Liu Fanyin coldly and said in a low voice, "Mrs. Hou is indeed very eloquent. She can fool my cousin in just a few words."
Hearing this, Peng Xiuying, who was still immersed in beautiful love a moment ago, suddenly woke up, turned around suddenly, and glared at Fang Xu fiercely.
When Fang Xu saw this, he sneered, "Why, my father-in-law is bored and doesn't want to deal with me anymore?"
Mr. Liu's face was ugly, and his tone was a bit harsh, "No matter who comes today, don't even think of taking Liu Fanyin away!"
"Really?" Fang Xu raised his eyes slightly and said in a light tone, "If I must take her away today, what can you do to me?"
Mr. Liu gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and said loudly, "She is my daughter. It is up to me to decide how to control her!"
"It's true that she is your daughter, but she is also the wife of the Xie family. She is the eldest lady of the Yongcheng Marquis's eight-carriage sedan to welcome her into the main entrance." Fang Xu casually lowered his eyes and said indifferently, "The Yongcheng Marquis has not If she abandons her, how does that give you the right to speak?"
Liu Fanyin stood behind Fang Xu, feeling somewhat confident.
Mr. Liu's heart ached because of her angry words, and his steps were a little unsteady. He pointed at Fang Xu and shouted, "How can it be that the daughter I raised with real money should be a widow for other people's family in vain?"
"Since you said this, I will give her a chance to choose." Fang Xu lightly raised his eyelids, turned sideways, revealing Liu Fanyin's beautiful face, "If you can convince Liu Fanyin to leave, I will prepare Li Shu. OK, let her go free."
Hearing this, Mr. Liu's eyes lit up and he looked at his daughter expectantly.
Liu Fanyin looked at him, the smile on his lips was extremely mocking.
Seeing her not speaking for a long time, Mr. Liu felt unsure and kept winking at her.
"I won't reconcile."
Liu Fanyin spoke lightly, looked away, looked at Fang Xu with a smile, and said softly, "Mother, from now on, these three words Liu Fanyin will be tied to the Yongcheng Marquis. No regrets!"
Hearing this, Fang Xu's lips curled up slightly, he looked sideways at Mr. Liu, who had a dull look on his face, and asked with a smile, "Are my father-in-law's ears still working?"
"Rebellious girl!" Mr. Liu couldn't stand and staggered twice. He was supported by Peng Xiuying on the side. He couldn't help but still yelled at his daughter, "I raised you in vain. I didn't expect you to be so conceited." You are willing to be humble and stick your hot face to the cold buttocks of Yongcheng Houfu!"
After finishing speaking, Mr. Liu turned to look at Fang Xu and said in a loud voice, "Mrs. Hou, Liu knows that I can't help you and the Yongcheng Hou Mansion for this matter, but at the moment, I can't take care of anything else."
"Liu Fanyin must stay here no matter what!" Mr. Liu said with a heart-broken heart, "If Mrs. Hou agrees to divorce, I can give up all her dowry to the Yongcheng Hou Mansion."
Fang Xu raised his eyebrows slightly and looked straight at Mr. Liu. Seeing his serious face, he couldn't help but sneer.
Mr. Liu's face paused, his eyelids beating uncontrollably, "Why are you laughing?"
Fang Xu suppressed his smile and looked at him with amusement in his eyes, "Does my father-in-law feel that the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion is lacking your six shops? Do you think I should be grateful after hearing this?"
Mr. Liu looked stunned. He couldn't figure out what Fang Xu was thinking. He had a splitting headache and his chest was heaving up and down.
"If it's the Liu family that was famous in the past, that's it. The six prosperous shops can still interest me." Fang Xu raised his eyes gently and looked at Mr. Liu with a vegetable-like face. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, "We are the same family. Am I unaware of the current situation of the Liu family in the capital?"
"It's just a shop, there are many palaces."
Fang Xu pursed his lips and smiled, and said in a calm tone, "My father-in-law, if you want to negotiate, I will give you more benefits."
"If you use six shops that are losing money every day to negotiate for profits, you don't know who you are degrading."
