On March [-]th, Xishantang officially opened! The opening event is different from the past. This time, Fang Qingrou opened a porridge shed next to the Xishantang store to provide free porridge to the poor people. No matter who is in need, they can come and have a bowl.

The displaced people rushed over after hearing the news, and the queues were long, just to fill their stomachs.

I thought it was the same as other porridge shacks, where the porridge is made one grain of rice after another. Who would have thought that the porridge at Xishantang is very affordable! Even the beggar, who had not eaten for a long time, was so full that he burped after drinking three bowls.

"What a good man! What a good man!"

"No, I haven't eaten so full in a long time!"

Fang Qingrou said while serving porridge, "The porridge shed in Xishantang will be opened on the first and fifteenth day of every month. In addition, there will be a pot on the side of the store entrance, and the porridge that is not sold out every day will be placed in that pot." , for those who need it.”

Fang Qingrou's words once again received cheers from everyone.

The food at Xishantang is more in line with women's tastes. Most of the guests who come here to eat are women. If there are more women, there will be more gossip. Fang Qingrou was not a gossip, but when she passed by a table of guests, the topic they were talking about made her stop and eavesdrop.

"Hey, you all don't know that the young lady from Dr. Zhongsan's family doesn't think about food or tea every day. She only thinks about the newly appointed General Song! I heard that people have lost a lot of weight. She is so infatuated. There are few people who can compare to his strength.”

"I heard about it too. It seems that General Song rescued her on the night of Women's Day, and he seemed to have hugged her."

"Yo! And you hugged me?!"

"No, I heard that the two of them were hugging each other and rolling around on the ground!"

"Oh, no wonder this girl recognizes General Song. It's no good if she doesn't recognize General Song. They already have skin-to-skin kisses!"

Listening to the conversation of several women, Fang Qingrou gradually tightened the handkerchief in her hand. She returned to the room and called the two girls, "Have you heard about the rumors about the general?"

The two girls looked at each other and said, "Mom, the servants actually heard something."

"I heard it was the night of Women's Day. Didn't the general save a girl? When everyone met, the girl said that she and the general had a physical relationship, and she would never marry anyone other than the general in this life! It's so kindhearted that no reward will be given!" Xiaohua was very angry. He continued, "Girl, how can any daughter's family destroy her reputation like this? What is she trying to do!"

"What are you trying to do? It's not just that our general will be appreciated by the Holy Emperor at such a young age. He has personally given the title of General Nagasawa and wants to become the general's wife."

"She deserves it too! I heard that she is just the daughter of a fifth-grade idle civil servant family, and she still wants to be the wife of our general. What a dream!"

The two girls were filled with indignation, "Girls, should we think of a way to help the general suppress the rumors?"

"You all know that the general cannot possibly not know. Let's wait and see."

For some reason, Fang Qingrou was very flustered. She took a sip of tea to suppress the anxiety in her heart, but it was of no use.

Seeing that my mother-in-law didn't look well, Erya was a little worried, "My mother-in-law, you don't look good. Do you need to ask Gongsun Guniang to come over and have a look?"

Fang Qingrou shook her head, "I'm fine, you go and do your work."

Song Xingxing went to court and was called to his side by Rong Qi, "What's going on with Dr. Zhongsan's daughter? Could it be that you guys met again in private?"

Song Xingzhi said with a bad expression, "Never."

"Then..." Rong Qi thought about it for a while, "I guess that girl fell in love with you. She knew that she had a low family background and couldn't climb up, so she resorted to some crooked methods." "The pure will themselves be pure, I will go and tell her." clear."

"You are a fool. If you go to Dr. Zhongsan's door now, the news will come out the next day that you are engaged to the young lady from Dr. Zhongsan's family."

"You should first think about how to explain to Miss Fang when you go back. This matter will not be easy to uncover."

Song Xingzhi bowed to say goodbye. Rong Qi looked at Song Xingzhi's back and sighed. After all, he was the one who caused him trouble.

Later, Song Xingzhi, who didn't even have time to change into his official uniform, went to Fang Qingrou to explain.

Seeing him frowning and trying to defend himself, Fang Qingrou shook her head, "I was also there that day. You don't have to say anything, I know everything."

"I believe you."

Fang Qingrou's words gave Song Xingzhi reassurance. He held Fang Qingrou's hand and said, "Don't worry, I will handle this matter as soon as possible."

Who would have thought that Wei Mingshan, the usually silent doctor of Zhongsan, did not leave after going to court, but knelt outside the imperial study room to ask the Holy One to make the decision.

With sincere words and tears, he told His Majesty how Song Xingzhi had insulted his daughter but refused to admit it.

"Your Majesty, I only have a daughter like Azhen. If her reputation is ruined, I will not be able to live anymore! Please make the decision, Your Majesty!"

The Holy Lord was upset by the quarrel. Wang Quan, the General Manager, came out with a fly whisk. He bent over and said to Dr. Zhongsan who was kneeling on the ground, "Master Wei, please get up first. His Majesty already knows about this, but you must also understand that the Holy Lord will not Because your one-sided words have condemned General Song, you must let General Song say something wrong. If the situation is true, the Holy One will make the decision for Mr. Wei and Miss Wei."

Wei Mingshan also understood that this was enough for his performance. If he continued, he might anger His Majesty, so he stood up obediently and patted the ashes on his knees: "Thank you, Eunuch Wang."

"It's getting late, Mr. Wei, please go back early."

When Wei Mingshan walked away, Wang Quan's disciple Xiao Zhongzi came over and said, "Master, this Master Wei is too greedy. I don't know which Buddha inspired him to come up with such an idea that harms others but does not benefit himself. "

"Shut your mouth, is this what you can say? Watch your head." Wang Quan clicked his tongue after scolding him sternly, "But this Master Wei is really not a smart man."

At night, Fang Qingrou couldn't sleep. She had been accused of scandal. In this era where reputation was most important, if this matter couldn't be resolved properly, I'm afraid the daughter of Dr. Zhongsan would really marry into the Song family. .

If Dr. Zhongsan’s daughter marries in, what does she mean?
  No, she has to think about it.

After the court dispersed early the next day, Xiao Zhongzi's father-in-law stopped Song Xingzhi, "General Song, your Majesty invites you to come."

Song Xingzhi didn't know what the emperor asked him to do, but he couldn't disobey the emperor's order, so he followed Xiao Zhongzi towards the imperial study room.

At this time, Concubine Yu was waiting inside. When she saw Song Xingzhi coming in, she covered her face and smiled, "Look, Your Majesty, the other protagonist is here."

Concubine Yu looked at Song Xingzhi carefully, "No wonder the Miss Wei family wants to stick to General Song even if she ruins her reputation. I didn't expect him to be a handsome young man."

Although describing Song Xingzhi as a young man is a bit too much, Concubine Yu is already over forty this year, and Song Xingzhi, who is in his twenties, is not just a child to her. (End of chapter)
