farmer's wife

Chapter 60

During these days, Fu Yan bought ingredients to make pastries many times, mostly for her own use or as a gift.

And the family also had to spend, her previous embroidery money plus the silver saved by Xiao Lie's several trips to the city to sell prey, was used up when she paid the store deposit of 20 taels and the broker's 50% fee of [-] taels last time.

The final payment of 480 taels must be paid when the shop is transferred and signed.Today, she got 420 taels from selling embroidery, so Fu Yan took out 60 taels from her dowry as an advance payment.

Fortunately, the fee for hiring a broker was also worthwhile. It not only helped them bargain with the original shop owner, but also arranged for the bookkeeper and other people in charge of the transfer of ownership in the government office due to their extensive contacts.

They only need to follow the whole process, sign and pledge.

Fu Yan's thoughts were all about the shop, full of excitement, and she didn't notice that Fang Sanye's eyes fell on her from time to time.

Xiao Lie frowned, and found that although Third Master Fang's gaze was deep but not wanton.

He turned sideways to block Fu Yan's figure, and gave Third Master Fang a warning look.

Fang Meng lowered his eyes and turned away indifferently.

The shop fell under Fu Yan's name, it was her private property, Xiao Lie kept his word.

When the black dog, the chief bookkeeper and the others saw it, they couldn't help but look at Xiao Lie in surprise, and secretly smacked their lips.

This Mrs. Fu didn't expect to look soft and weak, gentle and polite, but she is also a formidable one?
Xiao Lie turned out to be an idiot...

After finishing the business of the shop and handing over the keys and title deeds to them, they planned to go back to the village if there was nothing else to do.

Xiao Lie had to go back to the village head to ask about sending people up the mountain.

They were thanking the black dog politely and preparing to leave.

Fang Meng, who had been silent all the way, suddenly interrupted them.

Fang Meng looked at Fu Yan intently, and suggested, "It's a happy event today, why don't I be the host, let's all go to Keyun to celebrate."

There are many restaurants in Shizhou City, but there are also high and low levels.

Passenger Transport is one of the four restaurants. It is located on Baihu Street in Dongshi, and it means guests come from clouds.Every time I go, I can't spend a few dozen taels, let alone the cost of treating guests.

The black dog looked at Mr. Fang in surprise.

It's not that he suspects that Fang Meng can't afford to invite him, it's just that Mr. Fang has always been cold-faced and a bit picky... He rarely takes the initiative to invite guests for dinner.

Fang Sanye's thoughts... Heigou's thoughts diverged and drifted away...

Seeing Fang Meng's expression, Fu Yan suddenly realized something was wrong, she turned sideways behind Xiao Lie.

Xiao Lie moved his steps to cover Fu Yan's figure, and looked directly at Fang Meng coldly: "Don't bother Mr. Fang. There are still things waiting at home, so we, husband and wife, will take a step first."

Xiao Lie would treat local snakes like Gao Yimen politely, but he was not afraid of them.

If someone dares to put crooked ideas on his daughter-in-law, then he will definitely try his best to protect Ah Yan.

After finishing speaking, Xiao Lie took Fu Yan and left without hesitation.

Fang Meng stood there silently and coldly, watching the two of them gradually walk away.

The black dog was struggling, and cautiously approached and asked, "Third Master? Do you want me to stop them?"

Fang Meng suddenly turned his head and scolded: "Stop you, you bastard! You kid is not doing business all day long, what are you thinking about!"

The black dog was aggrieved, and the black dog muttered: "Third Master, this is not you...Look... have you fallen in love with someone's wife..."

The third master has been staring at Brother Xiao's daughter-in-law today, and he is not blind.

And the last time he ran away so excitedly, he couldn't even catch up.

For the sake of the third master, his black dog can endure the condemnation of his conscience today and stop being a human being!
The black dog secretly said "ambition", but Fang suddenly raised his foot and kicked his ass: "Go away! Your skin is itchy, find a stick by yourself and let your old mother beat you, what are you thinking?" of!"

"If your mouth is broken, cover it tightly, don't tarnish other people's reputation for no reason."

Then he glanced at the couple cuddling up in the distance, Fang sighed fiercely, and walked away with a gloomy face.

Seeing that the third master didn't have such perverted thoughts, Heigou was also relieved, he didn't really have to be whipped by his old lady.

"Third Master, I was wrong. I blame my stupid mouth and nonsense, just wait for me." He got up quickly and caught up with Fang Meng.

On the way back to the village, thinking about what happened today, Xiao Lie asked, "Did Ah Yan know Third Master Fang before?"

After Fu Yan noticed Fang Meng's strangeness just now, she also recalled whether there was such a person among the people she knew.

But no matter how I thought about it, I didn't think of this person.

When she was in the Zhao residence, she seldom left the residence, and only followed orders to do things, and would not stay outside to play.

There are indeed very few people I know outside the mansion. If you have met this kind of local snake, you should remember it.

Seeing Fu Yan shaking his head, Xiao Lie said: "It's fine if you don't know each other, we don't often deal with them."

Xiao Lie held her hand tightly, and talked to her about other things.

Since he didn't know each other, it would be useless to think too much, but he remained vigilant in his heart.

**
He also saw Fu Yan's unfamiliar and vigilant face, Fang Meng didn't continue to talk to him just now to persuade him to stay.

This is also understandable, he is probably the cat and dog she helped at will, who can expect people to remember what the stray cats and dogs on the street look like.

But he couldn't forget that winter five years ago.

it's too cold.The continuous heavy snow lasted for more than half a month, and people with roof tiles froze to death and suffered a lot of frostbite, let alone homeless orphans and beggars like them.

Fang Meng was only thirteen that year, thin and short, and his physique was disliked even when he went to the dock to move goods, and no one accepted him.

It was cold and there was a shortage of food. A kind mother-in-law gave two steamed buns as a gift. Unfortunately, the older beggars saw him and surrounded him and asked him to hand them over.

Fang Meng was young and weak, but he was also a vicious little lone wolf back then.

He knew he couldn't grab these people, so without saying a word, he just grabbed the steamed bun and chewed it down his throat.

Seeing the little man's resistance, the group of beggars immediately rushed forward and snatched away the remaining steamed buns in his hand, and put their fingers into his mouth to lick his throat, trying to make him spit it out.

If they can't eat it, Fang Meng can't even try to eat it.

Fang Meng stubbornly suppressed the nausea in his stomach, refusing to vomit it out.

In the end, the beggars beat him up, stripped off his thin clothes, and walked away.

Fang Meng was in pain and cold, and slowly got up from the ground, moving his steps.

In the long and heavy snow, he didn't know where to go.

The consciousness of survival made him bury himself in a haystack when he saw it.

But it was too cold... the hay push didn't bring him much warmth, he was almost numb from the cold.

He felt like he was going to die.

It's okay to die, but I can still see my parents and sisters sooner, and I don't have to wag my tail like a wild dog to beg for mercy, but still live so hard, it's too tiring.

And just when Fang Meng's consciousness was about to disappear, a pair of white and tender hands pushed aside the haystack in front of him...
