Dressed as a mother-in-law, she leads the whole family to turn over.

Chapter 465 The Fang Family’s Plan

The more Xiao Chongyun spoke, the paler his face became. His fists clenched tighter under his sleeves, and he gritted his teeth stubbornly, "So I should thank you for using such a despicable method?"

King Xiaoyao sneered, "All is fair in war, don't you understand? Those who achieve great things do not care about trivial matters! If you have the courage, go to Guangenhou Mansion now and ask for Xuejun's hand in marriage. Then your father will ensure that these rumors will disappear immediately without a trace."

Xiao Chongyun felt tired instantly, "Father, I haven't done anything yet, I'm not worthy of her."

Thinking of the girl who was as bright as the moon, his heart couldn't help but tremble, and all kinds of emotions were deeply suppressed by him.

King Xiaoyao couldn't understand. "If you like it, then you like it. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Forget it! I don't care about you. You have to hurry up. Otherwise, if that woman of Marquis Guangen decides on her son-in-law for no reason, I won't be able to do anything about it."

He can use his power to oppress others, but he has no power over that woman.

Xiao Chongyun was also anxious, and immediately stood up and said to King Xiaoyao: "Father, I have my own arrangements. She, Yang Xuejun, can only be my Crown Prince's Consort!"

King Xiaoyao couldn't help but smile wickedly when he saw his son's determined look.

The next day, Jiang Ning learned that Prince Xiaoyao had gone to the northwest with Prince Ding for training.

Looking at King Xiaoyao who was sitting opposite him and praising his son to the heavens, Jiang Ning was speechless, "I know Chongyun is excellent, but what does it have to do with you?"

King Xiaoyao choked and retorted angrily, "I raised him with great care! They say that the grace of raising a child is greater than the grace of giving birth to one, how can his excellence have nothing to do with me? Jiang Ning, I'm telling you, that boy has deep feelings for your girl, and he even ran to the northwest to make some achievements. Before he comes back, don't easily marry your girl off to someone else, otherwise that boy will go crazy."

Jiang Ning rolled his eyes speechlessly, his eyes thoughtful.

The following days were calm and peaceful. The summer heat gradually faded away with the chirping of cicadas on the branches. In the early morning, a cool breeze blew off the dead leaves on the trees, and we realized that autumn had come.

Jiang Ning felt the cool autumn air and sent several letters to Quzhou Prefecture.

Yang Erdan, who was patrolling the protective city wall, received the news and immediately rode his horse to the nearby brick kiln factory, where he had a temporary office and study.

Yang Fugui and the four brothers of the Fang family, who were working at the time, thought something had happened when they saw him returning in a hurry at this time, and hurried over to ask.

After reading Jiang Ning's letter, Yang Erdan pondered for a moment and asked Yang Fugui, "Are you confident that you can pass the imperial examination next year?"

Yang Fugui was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily, "Second cousin, I have been studying late into the night for more than a year, and I have never dared to slack off. The teacher praised me for my great progress. With my current ability, I can pass the exam, but my ranking will not be too high, so I have to continue to work hard."

During this year and more, he spent half a day every day working in the brick kiln factory, communicating with the master craftsman, and another hour learning from Liang Hongchang. He spent the rest of the time working hard to become his second cousin.

Yang Erdan showed a gratified smile in his eyes, "Okay! You work hard and find a reason to go back to the village for the New Year this year. Next year, you will go to the capital after the autumn examination and will not return to the village."

The four brothers of the Fang family also cheered Yang Fugui on.

After Yang Fugui left, Yang Erdan said to Fang Muzhou, "You should keep a close eye on the brick kiln factory next year. I will give you a raise. The protective wall will be completed in about two years. If you want to continue working there after it is completed, I have other plans."

When the four brothers of the Fang family heard this, they all expressed their willingness to work hard.

After Yang Erdan left, Fang Muchuan said excitedly: "Brother, that's great! It seems that the Yang family is willing to continue to use us!"

After the four brothers came to the city, except for Fang Muxi who had already married and had children, the other three all got married here one after another and had children.

Especially Fang Muzhou, he was the oldest among the four brothers. He was 46 years old when he got married, which could be considered a grandfather in the village. He married a 27-year-old widow who lost her husband and son in an earthquake.

The two fell in love with each other while working, and thought they would get along and spend the rest of their lives together. Unexpectedly, the widow could still get pregnant at an advanced age. Not long after getting married, she gave Fang Muzhou a son, and gave birth to a second son when she was 30 years old.

Fang Muzhou now has two sons. The second son, Fang Muchuan, and the third son, Fang Mufan, married younger women. One has one son and two daughters, and the other has two sons and two daughters.

The brothers used to be bachelors, and they only thought about saving money so that the children of the fourth brother could take care of them in their old age. Now, they don’t have to rely on others, but have to think of ways to save money for their children and grandchildren. They can’t let their children and grandchildren suffer the same hardships they suffered when they were young.

Fang Muzhou stroked his chin and said thoughtfully, "Second Young Master is a good boss. Now our monthly salary has increased to two taels of silver. We can save more than ten taels a year. If we work hard for another two years, it will not be a problem to save forty or fifty taels. I heard that Third Young Master needs help in business. If there is no work behind the brick kiln factory, we can ask Second Young Master to see if we can follow Third Young Master in business. We can earn a little more. If possible, we can send our children to school to learn a few words."

"Yes, yes, yes! Brother, I think so too." Fang Muchuan said excitedly.

Fang Mufan fell into deep thought, "Brother, second brother, why don't we send my wife and children back to Rongshu Village? There is a village school there, and the students hired are scholars. The children in the village are all literate and sensible, so there is no need to worry about them learning bad things. We can settle down in Rongshu Village, and the children won't need to spend too much money to study.

What’s more important is to grow up with the children in the village, which is better for them.”

Apart from anything else, the Yang family will definitely rise with the help of Guang'enhou's branch, Fugui and some promising young people in the village. Their Fang family has only four brothers and a weak foundation. If they can make friends with the Yang family, they will get more help in the future.

Fang Muzhou was still hesitant at first, but he immediately made the decision after hearing what he said, "Okay! Then we will bring the wife and children back to the village this year and keep them in the village."

After making up their minds, the four brothers immediately went to work.

On the day of rest, Fang Muzhou and his brothers bought some seafood in the east of the city and brought it back.

The women and children in the house were all delighted to see them.

After everyone had a happy meal, Fang Muzhou told his wife, Mrs. Cai, about sending them back to the village.

Cai's face turned pale, and she was resisting. "We are doing fine now. The head of the family works in the east city, and we do farm work and take care of the children at home. Why should we separate?"

Fang Muzhou sighed, his face serious, "It's not that I'm cruel, but you can see that I'm old and I don't know if I can live to see my children grow up and get married."

As soon as these words came out, Cai's tears immediately fell, "You are in good health, why do you say such unlucky words!"

Fang Muzhou patted Cai's shoulder with concern, and explained earnestly: "While I am still able to work, I have to make plans for you and your two children. Rongshu Village is the territory of the Yang family, and my household registration is there.

The rise of the Yang family is inevitable. They are reasonable people and will not be xenophobic. Moreover, there is a village school in the village. If you bring your sons back, the children can study in the village school and grow up with the children of the Yang family. These are all favors.

There is a workshop in the village. If you want to make money, go and work in the workshop. If you don’t want to, just take care of the crops in the fields. Anyway, I will bring you money every year, so you won’t be short of money.

If I go there in the future, with the protection of the Yang family, the children will be able to grow up safely and smoothly, and maybe there will be other good fortunes, understand?"
