Inside the Chu family's residence, there was a gloomy atmosphere.
Chu Deyun woke up again, lying on the chair with dull eyes.
Beside him was the absent-minded Young Master Chu.
Even Chu Qinghan and Chu Youyi seemed to have their own concerns.
Chu Deyun suddenly said: "Has Mr. Fang suffered any injustice when he came to our house? Youyi, you haven't abused him, have you?"
Chu Youyi thought for a while and said cautiously: "I seem to have scolded him a few times...Is it okay, Dad?"
"..."
For a long time, Chu Deyun's eyes showed sadness and he said: "It's over, our Chu family is completely over. Haha... Hiding criminals secretly, and now the court officials have come to our Chu family, and they still have to be scolded by you... I What evil did you do in your previous life?"
"A century-old foundation has been destroyed! I, Chu Deyun, am ashamed of my ancestors. I am a sinner!!"
Young Master Chu scratched his head and asked, "Hasn't everyone left, dad? What else can happen? Who is Fang Zhengyi? How did Dong Fu let in someone of unknown origin?"
These four consecutive questions immediately broke Chu Deyun's heart, and he couldn't help roaring:
"You unlearned beast, get out of here! Yes, Dong Fu, where did that bitch die? Tell him to get out of here and come see me!"
The servant at the door heard Chu Deyun calling Dong Fu and ran out immediately.
After a while, Dong Fu came back out of breath.
Originally, he was out helping with business, and he didn't know anything about what happened at home.
But when I returned home, I saw that the flowerbeds and lawns were trampled to pieces, and I asked with a somewhat panicked expression: "Master? Our house has been robbed?"
"I've suffered from your mother! I've suffered from you, the traitor!" Young Master Chu felt that he was being scolded inexplicably, and he was holding back his anger, so he kicked him.
"Let me ask you, where did Fang Tangjing come from?"
Dong Fu panicked, his eyes darting around: "This...he is a normal recruit after the new year, there is no problem."
"You fart!" Young Master Chu went up and kicked him again: "Dad, if he doesn't tell the truth now, just beat him to death!"
The Chu family stood up and gathered around Dong Fu, looking at him with their eyes.
Chu Deyun suppressed his anger and asked: "Dong Fu, you are hiring now. Considering the friendship you have done for so many years, I will let you go. If you lie again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Dong Fu sat on the ground, looking around in panic, feeling extremely shattered.
It’s over! It seems that Fang Tangjing's identity has been exposed. What shameful thing has he done?
Thinking of this, Dong Fu raised his body with his hands, knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times, crying: "Master, please spare my life! It was... Fang Tangjing gave me five hundred taels of silver and asked me to say this. Yes!"
"You sold my Chu family for five hundred taels? You're a rip-off!" Chu De was so lucky.
Chu Qinghan, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up: "Dad, please calm down first. Dong Fu, let me ask you, why did Fang Zheng... Fang Tangjing come to the Chu family to be a servant?"
Dong Fu's mind turned around and he seemed to have found a life-saving straw: "I remembered it! Master, I didn't deliberately hide it from you... Fang Tangjing came here just for the eldest lady! He has favored the eldest lady for a long time, so he wanted to borrow her This opportunity is close to the eldest lady.”
"He said that his status is extraordinary. I think he has good looks and only costs five hundred taels of silver. Such a sincere person and the young lady are a good match."
"The eldest lady is not married yet, and I am very anxious..."
"Fuck you! It's easy to just eat carrots and don't worry about it. Do you have to control whether my sister gets married or not?" Young Master Chu yelled.
Chu Qinghan's face suddenly turned red and he hesitated: "It's impossible, I've only met him a few times. Excuse, this must be an excuse he used to deceive you. There must be other reasons for coming to the Chu family."
Chu Youyi's face turned pale, she lowered her head and stared at her toes without knowing what she was thinking about.
Chu Deyun was stunned and murmured: "Is this really the case?"
Young Master Chu thought for a moment, and suddenly showed an ecstatic expression: "Yes! It must be Dad! It can't be wrong!"
"You don't know, I saw him in a brothel. He is the master of alcoholism!! This man is a hungry ghost in lust. He must have taken a liking to Qinghan at a glance. Our family has become rich!"
"Amazing, really amazing... He is willing to be a man just to find a woman. No wonder he can become a master of wine..."
Chu Deyun's eyes widened and he hurriedly said: "Are you sure? You must keep an eye on me. This is related to the life and death of the family."
"You can't be wrong, dad. I go to brothels twenty times a month. I can't see this kind of lust, so it's really a waste of money." A trace of pride appeared on Young Master Chu's face.
Chu Youyi slowly raised her head and glanced at her elder brother with disdain.
There really is someone who goes to a brothel twenty times a month, and he's right around him...
Chu Deyun was pacing excitedly: "Okay! Okay! We are saved, the Chu family is saved, I will ask Master Fang, Qinghan, you go and accompany her. Since he likes you, then you will marry him as a concubine."
The color on Chu Qinghan's pretty face suddenly faded: "Dad, what nonsense are you talking about? Dong Fu is just talking nonsense, and the elder brother is also talking nonsense. I am your daughter, and you just give me away casually? "
There was also a hint of embarrassment on Chu Deyun's face: "Qinghan, you will get married sooner or later. Whoever you marry is not a marriage. Don't you admire Fang Zhengyi very much? You are satisfied with marrying him, and the Chu family can be safe. ”
"He is a high official of the imperial court and represents the face of the imperial court! Unless you marry him, will this matter be okay?"
"You are smart and capable. Don't you understand this?"
Chu Qinghan stood there dullly, as if he had lost his soul.
Now I only feel disappointed and sad... I put all my effort into my family's business, but in the end it was nothing more than a prop.
What Chu Deyun said did make sense, and she was unable to refute it.
This should be the biggest official he has ever seen. He came from the capital and became a servant of a merchant's family. No matter how you look at it, this is not a good thing.
But...did her father and brother regard her as a human being?
Chu Youyi also frowned, looked at her father and said angrily: "You have gone too far! Fang Zhengyi is not such a person, why do you think so much?"
"And he came on his own. What does it have to do with us? Is this fair to my sister?"
Chu Deyun said impatiently: "Youyi, go back to your room and rest! What does an inexperienced young man know?"
"That's right!" Young Master Chu interrupted: "Don't interrupt if you don't understand anything. Look at you, you go to restaurants all day long to eat. You have grown like a bamboo pole since you were a child. You eat for free. From now on, you You can’t get married like this.”
Bamboo pole...since childhood...me?
Chu Youyi lowered her head and glanced down, as if she suddenly realized something, and her head went crazy!
He raised his head again, with tears already in his eyes, and shouted to everyone: "Liar! Liar! This liar!"
After that, he wiped his tears and ran away...

It’s late, I’ll add one more chapter, and it may be posted later tomorrow. Let me tell you in advance.
