food color and fragrance

Chapter 131 Schadenfreude
Mrs. Fang had already been waiting at home for a while, and it took a long time to see Fanyin and Chang's mother before coming to Fang's mansion. The tiredness on her face hadn't completely subsided yet.

Sanskrit sounded a few words of flattery, and Mrs. Fang didn't have the heart to blame her. Who asked her master to maintain the Yang family's relationship?What's more, Yang Huailiu actually received an invitation post from Madam Zhongfeng, which was her purpose of inviting her to drink tea this time.

Even she, the wife of the magistrate of Beijing Yamen, did not get an invitation, but she, the daughter of a small chief secretary, got an invitation. Although Mrs. Fang was upset, she still had to ask the reason for the matter on the sidelines, otherwise, how could she speak so deeply in her heart? pharynx?
Now the Yang family's limelight is too much...

What happened made her, the county magistrate's wife, full of resentment and hatred.

But what can I do then?

Fang Jingzhi has had a hard time these days. Although it doesn't count as years, looking at the book in front of him every day, he just can't memorize a single word. Even when he is writing in cursive, he is often distracted, because he accidentally writes He has mentioned the name "Huai Liu" several times, he has been punished twice by his husband, and now the palms of his hands are still wrapped with a medicinal cloth, that really hurts!

The more you can't see it, the more you miss it, just like a vegetarian misses smoked pork knuckle, and an old bachelor dreams about marrying a wife.

Fang Jingzhi's mind often pops up the appearance of Sanskrit...

It's a pity that Mrs. Fang and Mr. Fang have reached a consensus, and he is not even allowed to go home before this scientific examination, let alone to see Yang Huailiu.

How do days pass so slowly?

Fang Jingzhi didn't care about studying, and was thinking about how to leave the academy every day, at least to see her once?

Just thinking about it, the classmates beside Fang Jingzhi were packing up their things and preparing to leave the academy, "Going home for a few days, do you have anything to bring?"

"Why do you want to go back all of a sudden?" Fang Jingzhi was a little surprised, this close friend at school was Chen Jing, the youngest son of Dali Temple Chancellor.

Chen Jing is two or three years older than Fang Jingzhi. Hearing Fang Jingzhi's question, he couldn't help but look around, and said in a low voice, "It's my mother who wants me to go back. She got Mrs. Zhongfeng's invitation to a party to appreciate the scenery." , I heard that there are many ladies from families who will also go, my mother is to choose a family for me..."

"Then congratulate Brother Chen for finding a beautiful woman." Fang Jingzhi cupped her hands teasingly, and Chen Jing slapped her down, "Stop teasing me, you are old too, and you will have a good life in a few days."

Fang Jingzhi's expression dimmed, "I already have a spouse in my heart, but it's a pity...she doesn't know."

"It's the Huai Liu you always wrote?" Chen Jing teased him, then he was taken aback, and asked, "The Huai Liu you're talking about is Yang Huai Liu who has been very popular these days, right? The new director of the Beijing Yamen The daughter?"

"What's the matter? You know her?" Fang Jingzhi was surprised, and Chen Jing shook his head, "I don't know her, I just heard that she is also one of Mrs. Zhong Feng's inviters this time, don't you know?"

Fang Jingzhi was completely shocked, "She's going too?"

Seeing his stupid look, Chen Jing knew that this guy didn't know about it at all, but it was really hurtful to tease him about it, so he simply shut up immediately.

Just about to leave, Fang Jingzhi suddenly stopped in front of Chen Jing, "I will go with you, and I will go too!"

Sanskrit listened to Mrs. Fang's bobbing and asking about her health, and she was about to fall asleep from sleepiness.

In the final analysis, I wanted to ask why Zhong Xingyan visited Yang's house so often, and how she got invitations from Mrs. Zhong Feng.

But if Mrs. Fang didn't make it clear, Fanyin just pretended to be stupid and didn't turn to that topic at all.

After all, Mrs. Fang couldn't bear it any longer, she paused for a while before saying:
"I heard that you also got a post at the gathering of Mrs. Zhongfeng on the [-]th next month? I am happy for you after hearing this. It is not only a blessing for you to be in the eyes of such a noble person, but also a good thing for your father. , that lady is gentle, kind, and straightforward. I have had the honor to meet her twice. I wonder if you have made arrangements? What can I do for you? There are many rules in a big family. Ask more."

Fanyin couldn't help snickering at Madam Fang waiting for her to ask for advice, couldn't help it?Have you finally asked?There is no way to beat around the bush, so just ask a few questions directly?However, Mrs. Fang spent so much time trying to find out about this matter, she must have something to do with County Magistrate Fang behind it.

Sanskrit suddenly recalled that night when his father mentioned that the magistrate Fang had joined Yuwenhou's sect, presumably it was because of this that Mrs. Fang failed to get Mrs. Zhongfeng's invitation?When Fang Jingzhi went to Beijing with Zhong Xingyan, Mrs. Fang also took the opportunity to climb the threshold of being loyal to Mrs. Uncle.

"I have never dealt with this lady before, and I don't know why she suddenly posted a post. This is indeed my blessing, but I also want to understand that no matter how I dress up, I am just the daughter of the eighth-rank master book , can't compare to those children of high-ranking officials and wealthy families, why not go and return so plainly, just like the ordinary ones, excessive decoration will make people laugh, what do you think?"

Sanskrit looked at her with a smile, seemingly asking for advice, but in fact, she was just telling her. She had already said so much, and she was willing to meet people with her true face. No matter how Mrs. Fang mentioned something, it would be wrong...

"Since you have this in mind, then I don't need to say any more. When you go, remember to bring two maids, one to serve with you, and the other to run errands to pass on the message. It would be better if you have an accompanying woman. Publicity is a taboo." Mrs. Fang still mentioned a few words, and Sanskrit hurriedly got up to thank her.

She couldn't ask any real words, and Mrs. Fang lost interest in Sanskrit. After the two exchanged a few words, Sanskrit got up and left.

Mrs. Fang didn't stop her either, and was about to order Madam Chang to call for someone to take them home when she saw the housekeeper trotting in hurriedly, sweating and scorched, seeing Mrs. Fang sitting here, Regardless of any rules or irregularities, he opened his mouth and said:

"Ma'am, it's not good. The young master left the academy and sent a letter. Please take a look."

"What? He left the academy?" Mrs. Fang got up in a hurry, snatched the letter and opened it to read. In fact, there were only two lines on it:

I have been studying for a long time, and my head is dull. Chen Jingxiang, the son of a classmate in Dali Temple, invited him to his home as a guest. He returned within two days. ——Quiet.

Mrs. Fang trembled angrily, "You betrayed him, how dare you leave the academy privately, betrayed him!"

Sanskrit was on the side and hurriedly hid back, as if there was air, but Fang Jingzhi has always been a well-behaved person, how could he do such a thing?Why do you want to be secretly happy when you hear the news?

Mrs. Fang lost her composure, and Chang's mother was astonished and immediately went back to round up the situation, "Ma'am, the young master just went to a classmate's house and wrote you a letter. He is not young anymore. How can other young masters know the rules like our young master?" of? It's time for you to let go, too."

"I, I can't indulge his temper." Mrs. Fang saw that Chang's mother kept winking, and felt that something was wrong with her. She paused for a long time before sitting on the chair with a sigh and did not speak. Say a few words, but when you see the Sanskrit sound, you don't want to say a word anymore.

The originally warm atmosphere suddenly turned cold, embarrassment permeated the whole room, no one wanted to speak first, let alone how to speak.

Sanskrit couldn't care less about sniggering, she should come forward to comfort her anyway, even if it's a polite greeting, she has to say it, right?

"Mrs. Fang, calm down. It's wrong for Mr. Fang to be playful for a while, but just scold him, don't get angry..." Fanyin really had no words when he said these two sentences, "You are tired too, I'm going back now, and I'll visit you in a few days."

"I made you laugh." Mrs. Fang's voice was indifferent, and Sanskrit waved her hands hurriedly, "How can this be a joke? It's because Mr. Fang doesn't understand that you love him. He wants to raise a son but doesn't want to kiss him. I hope there is such a Mother loves me."

What Sanskrit said is not completely false...

Mrs. Fang suddenly remembered that Sanskrit also had no mother, so she could only calm down and said, "You are also a pain in the ass, so go back today, and I will ask Mama Chang to invite you someday."

"Then take care of yourself." Fanyin looked at Chang's mother after performing the blessing, and Chang's mother led the way to send her away. After going out and getting into the Fang family's carriage, Fanyin breathed a sigh of relief.

Every time she came to Fang's house, she felt that she had gone through a catastrophe. It wasn't that Mrs. Fang was so difficult to deal with, but that the self-entanglement in her heart was really painful.

If you don't like to laugh, you have to laugh;

If you are not willing to flatter, you have to praise;

I don't like talking around corners, and I can't just pretend to be stupid.

This feeling is really bad!

Sanskrit sighed softly, and couldn't help laughing, Caiyun couldn't help but asked, "Miss, what are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of something fun." Fanyin didn't say that he thought of Fang Jingzhi making Mrs. Fang angry. After all, he was still going home in someone else's carriage, which was really inappropriate for people to hear.

Caiyun was puzzled, looked at Fanyin resentfully, and refused to tell her to laugh together when there was something fun, so Fanyin hurriedly found other topics to chat with her.

The distance between Fang's house and Yang's house is not particularly far, and they arrived within an hour.

Sanskrit got off the carriage, Caiyun rewarded the coachman with a handful of coins, and the master and servant planned to go home.

As soon as you entered the door of the yard, you heard someone talking at home?

Huh?Why does this voice sound so familiar?

Fanyin was startled, walked quickly to the main courtyard, and saw three people talking in the courtyard.

Among them, Er Fatty was the one who yelled the most. When he yelled so loudly, even the aunt selling eggs at the door could hear clearly. The other one was a stranger, but the last one made Sanskrit subconsciously He bit his tongue, because it was Fang Jingzhi!

How is he here?
