Chapter 4 Meeting the Second Son for the First Time
The two carriages were so close to each other that they were only half a meter apart. Fang Xu could even hear Xie Shuer's cry of collapse.

"Madam, now our Hou Mansion has lost face in the capital." Bai Ji sighed, looking regretful, and lowered his head to pour Fang Xu a cup of herbal tea.

Fang Xu chuckled, seemingly disdainfully, "You are wrong, it is Xie Shu'er who is embarrassed, not the Hou Mansion."

"But" Bai Ji glanced at Madam and wanted to speak but didn't know where to start.

"Madam is much smarter than you and me, how could you just watch the Hou Mansion being humiliated?" Su Zi hit her with his elbow and rolled his eyes, "You brainless idiot, instead of worrying about this for no reason, why don't you just watch it?" Why not remember to make a bowl of ginseng chicken soup for my wife when you return home!"

"Am I worried about Madam?" Bai Ji stuck out his tongue, cute and cute.

Fang Xu glanced at the two of them with a smile, but said nothing.

How could she not know what this little maid was thinking? People in ancient times paid great attention to honor and integrity. Everyone in the family shared weal and woe. If one person failed to maintain integrity, the whole family would be humiliated. But she was a businessman and knew how to manipulate people's thoughts, so she could naturally handle the matter. Clean and crisp.

As soon as she intervened in today's matter, the people's minds must have been on Xie Shu'er abandoning her mother to find a husband. No one said anything wrong with the Yongcheng Hou Mansion. They would only laugh at Xie Shu'er, a noble girl, because her eyes were covered with lard. .

After returning to the Hou Mansion, no matter how noisy Xie Shuer was, Fang Xu always stayed behind closed doors on the grounds of being temporarily comatose. She had no choice but to return to the courtyard dejectedly.

The news that Yongcheng Hou's legitimate daughter broke off the engagement for love spread widely, and the people talked about it. Within half a day, Xie Shuer became completely popular in the capital.

When the other two sons came to the door, Fang Xu was slowly sipping herbal tea, and two maids, one on the left and one on the right, stood quietly beside him, shaking their long fans.

"Mother!" The eldest son, Xie Changqing, strode into the house with a hint of anger on his face. The first thing he said was to ask, "How could you treat Shu'er so coldly?"

Fang Xu took a sip of tea, slowly raised his eyelids, and looked at the man in front of him who was more than eight feet tall, with a strong build and a handsome face but could not hide his anger. Thinking of the stupid things he would do in the future, he couldn't help but sneer and asked, " Have you learned all your etiquette from a dog?"

Xie Changqing paused, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face, and stood still in the room, giving a rather perfunctory salute to smooth things over for himself, "Don't blame me, mother, my son just saw that my little sister was depressed, and I was worried. some."

"So you can yell and question your mother wantonly?" Fang Xu placed the tea cup heavily on the side table, and his originally beautiful little face was now filled with coldness, "Who do you think the person sitting in front of you is!"

Xie Changqing was speechless for a moment, hesitating and standing there, looking extremely stupid given his majestic figure.

Xie Li, who was behind him, sighed softly, stepped out, and bowed to Fang Xu in a polite manner. With concern on his face, he asked in a low voice, "I heard that my mother fainted out of anger. Are you still feeling unwell now?"

This one does look a bit human.

Fang Xu looked at him. He was half a head shorter than his brother Chang Qing. He had red lips and white teeth, and looked like a boy and a girl. His moon-white gown made him gentle and elegant. His bookish look made him look like a soft persimmon.

But often in life, this kind of people are the hardest to offend.

When his eyes met Xie Li's clear, bright and caring eyes, Fang Xu became somewhat interested.

According to the memory of the original owner's past life, the eldest son Xie Changqing spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, and the eldest daughter Xie Shuer was in the late stage of love. Both of them experienced forced interference from their mothers before doing stupid things. They had grudges and both had reasons for killing their mothers. However, in the book of the second son Xie Li, he said: This mother had no dissatisfaction, so why did he join forces with the two brothers and sisters to kill his own mother?

Could it be that he is a pervert?

Fang Xu was puzzled and looked at Xie Li in trance.

Seeing that his mother didn't respond, but kept looking at him in a daze, with his eyes getting more and more strange, Xie Li raised his hand and touched his face, a little confused, "Mother, is there any dirt on the son's face?" Fang Xu replied. God came, smiled and shook his head, "It's okay, I just think you are sensible."

Only then did Xie Li smile knowingly. He noticed that his brother's body was stiff for a moment, and there was a hint of darkness in his eyes, and he responded, "If this is where my mother is, my eldest brother naturally cares about her, but he is a little impatient."

Hearing this, Xie Changqing nodded hurriedly and agreed, "The second brother is right, how can a son not care about his mother!"

Fang Xu didn't take it seriously and waved to the two of them, "Sit down."

The Xie brothers sat down in response, their bodies upright, as if they didn't dare to relax at all.

Fang Xu looked at the two of them sitting on pins and needles without saying a word, just waiting for them to take the initiative to talk to her.

Sure enough, Xie Changqing couldn't hold it any longer. Seeing that her mother had no intention of speaking, she started the conversation first, "Mom, how do you want to resolve this matter, little sister?"

Fang Xu didn't look at him, gently blew the tea leaves in the cup, and asked in a low voice, "In your opinion, what should it be?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Changqing smiled and waved his hand, "In my son's opinion, this is not a big deal. If my little sister likes Pei Heng, she can just bring him in as a son-in-law. It's just a matter of having an extra pair of dishes and chopsticks." , our Marquis Mansion can still afford it!"

idiot,

He really has a simple mind and well-developed limbs.

When Xie Li on the side heard this, he slightly raised the corners of his mouth, his eyes full of mockery.

"Can you afford it?" Fang Xu seemed to have heard something funny, smiling lightly, "You are quite generous."

Xie Changqing didn't hear her mother's hidden sarcasm, and just grinned, "My little sister has always been self-reliant, and she has to do whatever she wants. Mother should know that."

What kind of magical person is this Marquis Yongcheng? He actually gave birth to two mentally retarded children in a row!
Fang Xu was too lazy to talk to the second-rate man. He only felt that Xie Changqing's cerebellum had shrunk and his brain had not folded yet. He turned to look at Xie Li, who was closer to the door, and slightly opened his pink lips, "What about you, what do you think the Hou Mansion should do?"

Xie Li's eyes darkened for a moment and he said slowly, "My son feels that the most urgent task at the moment is to consider the fetus in my sister's belly first. Before my son returned home, he asked a doctor to diagnose my sister's pulse. Judging from the pulse, she was indeed pregnant. Confirmation Correct."

Fang Xu nodded with satisfaction, and his eyes softened a little when looking at Xie Li.

Fortunately, fortunately, I am not stupid.

"If this matter was left to you, what would you do?" Fang Xu held his chin, with a little smile in his eyes.

Xie Li pondered for a moment and glanced at his eldest brother sitting beside him. After a while, he seemed to have made up his mind and responded, "No matter what, the reputation of the Marquis Mansion cannot be tarnished. If the younger sister is really like Pei Heng, The two are in love, so it is better for my mother to break off the engagement with Shangshu Mansion, let them get married, separate Shu'er from the Marquis Mansion, and marry Pei Heng."

The implication is that he gave up his legitimate daughter in order to preserve the reputation of the Marquis Mansion.

Fang Xu raised her eyebrows. The child's words were all on her mind, which surprised her. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Xie Changqing's distraught roar coming from below.
