  Chapter 84 082 [Children of the Fei family]

  Jing Xing Yuan.

   Mrs. Lou sat at the head of the hall, and Fei Rulan, Fei Ruhe, and Zhao Zhenfang stood in front of her.

   "Chunfang." Lou was the first to call Zhao Zhenfang's name.

  Zhao Zhenfang immediately took a step forward and replied, "Mother, my daughter is here."

  The domestic slaves in the inner courtyard are all adopted sons and daughters in name, and those who are close can call their masters father and mother.

  Mr. Lou had a smile on his face, and said kindly: "What did your brother write in the letter? If you don't want to say it, forget it."

Zhao Zhenfang didn't know what was going on at all, and replied honestly: "Second brother said in the letter that mother sent him to Jiujiang to do important things, and it might take two or three years before he came back. Second brother told me to listen to mother's words, and to read and practice more at ordinary times, not always Playing with the second sister (Fei Rumei)."

   "No more?" Lou asked.

  Zhao Zhenfang replied: "The second brother also said that when he comes home next time, he will buy me a very beautiful big doll."

   Lou smiled and waved: "Go and play with Second Sister."

   "My daughter will leave." Zhao Zhenfang immediately saluted and left the room.

  After Zhao Zhenfang left, Lou asked her son again: "Ruhe, what did Zhao Han say in your letter?"

Fei Ruhe always felt that something was wrong, and said: "Brother Han said that he was sent by his mother to work in Jiujiang, and he might not be able to return for a year or so. He also said that he put the manuscript of the novel in a restaurant, whether "Ehu Xun Magazine" will continue to run , It’s all up to me. If you want to continue, you can discuss it with Xu Ying, Liu Ziren, and Fei Yuanjian. After the price increase for the fourth phase, it will definitely make money.”

   "That's all?" Lou asked.

  Fei Ruhe nodded and said, "That's all. By the way, he also asked me to practice riding and archery."

   Lou waved his hand and said, "You go down too."

  There are only mother and daughter left in the house.

  Looking at each other, we all know the truth.

  Fei Rulan couldn't hold back at this time, and took the initiative to say: "Mother, Brother Han murdered and set fire to the county government."

   "I know," Lou said, "Mother made a mistake in this matter, but the master is so greedy. Brother Han promised to give him fifty taels, but this idiot is still not satisfied, so he secretly sent someone to inform the old master."

  Fei Rulan couldn't care less about resenting her grandfather, and said anxiously: "Brother Han can escape from such a big incident?"

"You still worry about him by now?" Lou was angry and funny, with a hint of helplessness, "I knew he had abilities and a temper, but I never expected that his abilities and temper That's so big! Fei Lin came back and told me that Zhao Han killed his master and Dianshi, set fire to the county government office, and left the city with his feet intact. Not to mention any injuries, even his clothes were intact. Not even blood!"

  Fei Rulan was dumbfounded. She didn't know the details before, and she was afraid that Zhao Han would be chopped and injured.

  Now that Lou said this, Fei Rulan finally felt relieved, and even began to imagine the heroic scene of Zhao Han killing all directions.

  Lou asked: "What did he tell you in the letter?"

Fei Rulan replied: "Brother Han said that if my daughter doesn't want to wait for him, she can find another good family to marry. If the daughter is willing to guard, it will be two or three years at the shortest time, or four or five years later. He will definitely return to Qianshan Mountain When the time comes, we will also decide on Chunfang's (Zhao Zhenfang) marriage."

   "You still have a conscience, and I didn't force you to stick to it," Lou asked, "What about your own idea?"

  Fei Rulan looked down at the ground, not daring to meet her mother's gaze, her voice was soft but firm: "My daughter has a private life with him, of course we have to wait patiently."

  In Fei Rulan's mind, a hug in Dingshenglou is already a private life.

Lou did not reprimand her daughter, nor did she agree with her, but calmly analyzed: "Zhao Han has always been smart and decisive. Even if he is defiled and sent to prison, he can still wait for me to save people with money. Why did he let Fei Lin go out of the city first and fight people by himself?" , and set fire to the county government office, completely cutting off your own way of retreat?"

  Fei Rulan thought carefully, but couldn't figure it out.

"It's definitely not young and energetic." Lou shook his head and frowned, thinking hard, "When he asked Fei Lin to leave the city, he planned everything. He couldn't wait to leave Fei's house, and couldn't wait to leave Qianshan Mountain. doing what?"

   "Daughter can't figure it out." Fei Rulan said.

"I can't figure it out either," Lou continued to analyze, "He is a loyal person, and he would never leave his own sister alone. But he left like this, and wrote to me to take care of his younger sister, saying that one day there will be a reward .He's sure he can come back, but what exactly is he going to do?"

  Fei Rulan said: "Brother Han must have great ambitions."

  Mr. Lou really couldn't figure it out, so he waved his daughter to leave first, and then called Fei Lin and Fei Chun to come.

   "Fei Chun, you are close to Zhao Han, do you know what his ambitions are?" Lou asked.

  Fei Chun hesitantly said: "But...maybe he is an official."

   "Say!" Lou suddenly shouted angrily.

  Fei Chun was so frightened that he trembled all over, and said bravely, "I really don't know, and he didn't tell me either."

   Lou cheated: "In the letter to me, he has already written clearly, don't you still dare to lie to me? How dare you!"

  Fei Chun prostrated himself on the ground, gritted his teeth and said, "I really don't know."

   "Go down." Lou felt a little helpless.

  The father and son took orders and carefully exited the room.

  Fei Lin hurriedly asked, "What exactly is Brother Han going to do?"

   "I can't say, dad, you better not know." Fei Chun kept his mouth shut.

  As early as last year, Fei Chun overheard the truth.

  At that time, Pang Chunlai and Zhao Han were discussing major events in the world and judging the gains and losses of the uprising in the three southern provinces.

  In the early years of Chongzhen, peasant uprisings broke out one after another in the three provinces of Guangdong, Fujian, and Jiangxi. The civil unrest in Guangdong was the biggest, but it only persisted for two or three years before it was put down by the governor's troops. The uprisings in Fujian and Jiangxi relied on the mountains to persevere. In history, Chongzhen was even killed. Later, he took refuge in Nanming and became an anti-Qing rebel army.

  Fei Chun heard clearly at that time, Zhao Han said that Jiangxi has many mountains and little land, and it is a natural treasure land for rebellion.

   This kid already knew what Zhao Han was thinking, but he kept it hidden in his heart and didn't say anything to anyone, even overcame Lou's fraudulent questioning.

   "Ma'am, please see Fei Zhen (the fifth child)."

   Yingchun came in to report.

   Lou gritted his teeth and said, "He still has the face to see me, let him in!"

  The fifth child rolled into the hall and knelt down with a plop: "Greetings, Eldest Young Mistress!"

   Lou sneered and said, "Uncle Wu, brother Han wrote to me, saying that he and a civil servant entered the county government office. What are you going to do in the county government office?"

   "Huh? He...he saw it?"

  Lao Wu almost fainted, the luck in his heart was shattered. Even afraid that Zhao Han was hiding here, he rushed out and stabbed him to death.

  Lou asked, "What are you afraid of?"

   "No, no fear," Lao Wu tremblingly took out the jade pendant and silver coins, "Chunfang is well-behaved and sensible, the old man likes it very much, and reward her with all of these."

   "Hehe, you really have face." Lou laughed angrily.

   In the blink of an eye, it is the Chinese New Year, and this year is relatively deserted.

  The eldest young master was working as a county magistrate in Suqian, and the fourth young master Ji'an was doing inspections, but they didn't rush back to reunite with their families.

   It's Zhao Han's good deeds, which have spread to Ehu. The pier of Ehu Town has posted a sea arrest document, and the government offered a reward of 100 taels for the capture of the traitor Zhao Han.

   Murder and arson in the county government, no matter whether there is a rebellion or not, will be regarded as a traitor by the government!

  Fei Ruhe was inexplicably excited, and ran to Zhongqinyuan to find Fei Lin: "Uncle Lin, did Zhao Han really kill people and set fire to the county government?"

   Fei Lin could only admit: "Really."

  Fei Ruhe sighed sadly, and complained again: "Why didn't he call me to do such an important matter? He really didn't regard me as a friend!"

  Fei Lin couldn't laugh or cry: "Young master, this is a decapitation business."

   "A man should be like this," Fei Ruhe clapped his hands and laughed loudly, and asked, "What's the situation, tell me quickly."

   Fei Lin explained the cause and effect in detail.

Fei Ruhe was filled with righteous indignation when he heard this, and cursed: "That **** master, who took the money and didn't do anything, actually turned around and hurt people. If it were me, I would be like Brother Han, killing him can relieve the anger in my heart! "

   Fei Lin didn't dare to speak.

  Fei Ruhe asked again: "Do you know where Brother Han has gone?"

   "I don't know." Fei Lin shook his head.

  The Lantern Festival passed in a blink of an eye.

  Mr. Lou and Fei Yuanyi reached an agreement that if they wanted to find a poor scholar, they only needed to be of good character, and quickly recruited them to be their son-in-law.

  Fei Rulan is too stupid to stick to Zhao Han, waiting for a wanted criminal by the government.

   She must stop thinking about it!

  The matchmaker was holding a teacup and smiling all over her face: "Madam, don't worry, I promise to handle the matter properly. If you can't find a suitable one in Qianshan Mountain, I will go to the surrounding counties to find someone. It's just..."

   "Just what?" Lou asked.

  The matchmaker wondered: "Can you just ask for a lower level? A young scholar, even if his family is poor, must be arrogant. How could he be willing to be a door-to-door son-in-law? How is childhood?"

Mrs. Lou thought over and over again: "If you are a scholar in this county, you don't have to be a son-in-law. If you are from another place, you must recruit a son-in-law. I am afraid that your daughter will suffer if she gets married. It is okay to be a child, but you must be talented and filial to your parents. Kind of."

   "That's easy." The matchmaker cheered up.

  Mr. Lou suddenly said with a straight face: "Until this matter is settled, you must not confide a word to the outside world. If I hear gossip, you can decide for yourself!"

   "I will definitely not talk nonsense. If I tell others, I will be gutted to death." The matchmaker hurriedly swore.

  The matchmaker received the reward and left happily.

  Fei Rulan broke in suddenly, and said expressionlessly, "Mother, was it the matchmaker who left just now?"

  Lou said with a smile: "It is indeed a matchmaker. Ruhe has also reached the age of marriage. I will ask the matchmaker to find a few daughters from good families."

   "If the Fei family marries a daughter-in-law, shouldn't they marry into a rich family?" Fei Rulan sneered.

  Lou said: "After all, we have to pick and choose."

  Fei Rulan said: "Mother, if you force your daughter too, then she will have to die."

  Finally, Mrs. Lou couldn't hold back anymore, her face was ugly, and she forced a smile: "You think too much, how can mother force you."

"My daughter said she would wait for Brother Han for a few years, and she wouldn't change her mind," Fei Rulan said, "Brother Han is now a wanted criminal in the sea, and Mother is definitely not willing. If you want to force her, your daughter will die. Mother thinks about it carefully." Think about it."

  Fei Rulan left after speaking, and Lou was so angry that he wanted to throw something.

  Resisting it anyway, Mrs. Lou called Dong Fu and handed over a tael of silver: "Catch up with the matchmaker and let her stop busy work. My daughter has already made a fiancé!"

  Dong Fu had just left when Fei Ze (Jian Dan) was brought in suddenly, holding a letter in his hand and saying, "Mother, the young master has escaped!"

  It was Fei Ruhe who left a letter in the restaurant, and then took Fei Chun to travel around.

   This guy was stimulated by Zhao Han, he didn't want to stay in Qianshan County, and wanted to go outside to make a big career.

  Ms. Lou opened the letter and wrote only one sentence: "Mother, my son is gone, don't read it. The fourth uncle is doing inspections in Ji'an, so my son will go to him now, and my son will come back after doing a great job outside."

   "Bastard!"

   "It's reversed, it's all reversed!"

   "I really raised a pair of good sons and daughters!"

  Ms. Lou was so angry that she almost fainted. It’s okay for her daughter to be unconscious, but now even her son is disobedient.
