Red makeup against the world

Chapter 1003
He intended to straighten Tu Fangyan, but Tu Fangyan refused him, saying: "My wife has just passed away, if I become your wife at this time, I'm afraid I will attract a lot of criticism for you."

Her current status is a good concubine, a noble concubine, but she is only a concubine.

The wife of the main house had just passed away, so she was righted. Not only her, but also the second son He would be hostile by the clan and Ma's natal family.

"It's enough for me to know that you have me in your heart." Tu Fangyan looked at him with tenderness in her eyes, and said, "As long as you can be by your side, your identity doesn't matter."

What he said moved Second Master He very much, and he became more determined to set her upright.

It's just that the time has not come, and it really can't be at this time.

After Mrs. Ma was buried, he announced that he would observe his wife's filial piety for three years.In this way, not only blocked Youyou's mouth, but also stopped those who wanted to come to the door to talk about matchmaking.

The He family's wealth has accumulated to an enviable level.As the head of the family, the Second Young Master He, his first wife died. People wanted to pounce on him like hungry wolves seeing meat, but they were stopped by such a perfect excuse.

Only Tu Fangyan knew that he kept his wife's filial piety for three years in order to exchange time for the opportunity to help her.

Three years, He Qingsong is in his prime, how many three years?This moved Tu Fangyan greatly, and she devoted herself even more to him.

In her capacity, she is the highest-ranking concubine in the backyard.Therefore, Second Young Master He logically entrusted her with all the matters in the yard, and let her be in charge of the central feeding.

Although the He family is not a family of officials, the rules and etiquette are not chaotic.

Ordinarily, letting Tu Fangyan, a noble concubine, be the housekeeper would not be without gossip.

But Mrs. He was thinking of the Xu family's old kindness, and Tu Fangyan had such a relationship with the Xu family, so she was respectful and polite, so she acquiesced to this matter.

The old lady doesn't speak, who else has the right to question?

Tu Fangyan's natal family is well-off and there is no shortage of money.After entering He's house, she opened the way with money and took in many servants.

In addition, she has a docile temperament and a stunning appearance.Influenced by Xu Wanzhen, her suppleness hides tenacity.In these years, except for Mrs. Ma who still can't understand her, those concubines are jealous of her, but their status and appearance are not as good as they are, and they can't feel bad.

All of the above allowed Tu Fangyan to take over Zhongfei smoothly.Even if there were a few unsightly ones, she dealt with them cleanly.

At this time, she was looking at the account books sent by Zhuangzi in the courtyard.

She has already given birth to two children, and her figure is still graceful.The corners of the eyes and the brows are more mature than before.Just sitting like that, every move is like a painting, which makes people fascinated.

It's no wonder that Second Young Master He fell in love with her at first sight, tried his best to create an identity for her, and has loved her ever since.

"Fang Yan!"

Second Young Master He entered the door, raised the letter in his hand, and said with a smile: "You must never have thought of this."

"Young master." Tu Fangyan stood up softly to salute, raised her lips and said with a light smile: "It seems that it must be a good thing that I can't think of."

She took the letter and read it carefully, then exclaimed softly in surprise: "My lord?"

Looking at him with twinkling beautiful eyes, Second Young Master He laughed loudly, sat down with her arms around her, and said, "Although you don't say anything, I also know that you miss the sisters in your boudoir, and often feel that you owe her too much."

"Right now, it's the best chance to make up for it." He stroked the loose hair on her ear temples, and tidied it behind her ears naturally. Looking at her small and jade-like earlobes, he couldn't help kissing her softly. for a moment.

"My lord!" Tu Fangyan stomped her feet in a coquettish, unyielding way: "I am thinking about business."

Second Young Master He laughed, and said, "I'm also serious. When will Fangyan give birth to another big fat boy for me?"

According to the agreement, the first son of the two was adopted by the Tu family.He has been looking forward to having another son born to her.If she inherits her looks and talents, and his business skills, she will definitely be outstanding.

The so-called love of houses and birds is no more than this.

Helping her to sit down, he stopped teasing and said: "According to the schedule, there are still two days left for the young lady to arrive soon."

He paid special attention to Xu Wanzhen's refuge in Songzhou.Not to mention Xu Wanzhen's kindness to Tu Fangyan, just the close contacts between the He family and the Xu family in the past few years have allowed him to broaden several sources of income.

Among them, Xu Wan, who is the link, really contributed.

Tu Fangyan read the letter in her hand again, and said: "My lord, don't worry, I will send my family to wait on the pier, and I will never miss the second young lady."

"It's just that the new year has just passed, and Wanzhen is pregnant again, so why did she come to Songzhou?" Tu Fangyan's face was filled with worry.

Xu Wanzhen was kind to her, she kept it silently in her heart, and wanted to see her very much.

However, for such an anomaly, something unusual must have happened.Compared with that, she would rather see Xu Wanzhen in the capital peacefully.

"Don't worry, this should only be an expedient measure by Master Wu." He Qingsong knew a little more about the situation in Beijing and China, knowing that the government was stable and the people were stable, so it shouldn't be a big deal.

Wu Zhengxiang did not explain the reason in the letter, but solemnly asked He Qingsong to protect Xu Wanzhen thoroughly during this period of time.

This made He Qingsong more cautious about this matter. After all, the temple was so high that he couldn't touch it as a merchant.

But after all, he is also a person who has gone through a lot of wind and waves, with a quick mind, he pondered for a moment and said: "The second young lady is here, we must not make any news. Her whereabouts are also kept secret."

Tu Fangyan raised her face in surprise, is this matter so serious?
This heaviness also dilutes the joy of the good sisters coming from afar.

"Okay, I understand." Tu Fangyan thought for a while, and said, "It just so happened that Zhuangzi handed in the account book, and I wanted to go and have a look. Why don't I go to Zhuangzi to live with her for a while after receiving cousin Wanzhen?" time."

The He family has a lot of industries, including money houses, silk, medicinal materials, goods stores and so on.However, due to people's deep-rooted land awareness in the farming society, many land farms were also established in Songzhou.

The one Tu Fangyan was talking about was not far from Songzhou, and it was the biggest Zhuangzi under the name of the He family.

Speaking of Zhuangzi, it is more appropriate to call it a manor.Occupying half of the hill, there are hundreds of acres of fertile land, and a lake in the middle of the mountain, and fruit trees are also planted.

After the new year, Zhuangzi will start to prepare for harvesting winter wheat, sowing seeds, stocking fish fry and so on.Otherwise, it will be too late to wait until the beginning of spring to make preparations, which is also a common practice.

In the first year as the head of the house, Tu Fangyan went to the Zhuangzi to inspect the village, to get acquainted with the stewards, and to beat the manager, which was exactly what should be done.

Hearing this, He Qingsong nodded and said: "It's just right. But, if you pick up the young lady and go directly to the village, it will be more deceptive."

After all, the He family is a big family in Songzhou, with many people and eyes.
