Chapter 520: So They Wouldn't Worry
aching the county town before nightfall. On the wall at the top of the city gate was a plaque inscribed with the three large characters "Luoshui City."In a place so ravaged by drought, the county's na...Fang Jinshu also doesn't intend to confront her head-on, as there's nothing to be gained from it.
But she also needs to figure out what the other party wants. Is it money, or does Fang Jianren need to pay a price
"Liu Qi, please remain calm. I will not shield Fang Jianren from the consequences of his actions."
"Why don't you tell me first what kind of compensation you want If I can do it, I will definitely help you. You should know that I am definitely on your side."
Liu Qi saw that Fang Jinshu was so polite, and the anger in his heart finally subsided a little.
"Her tone was a bit better now, "My sister's innocence has been ruined by that bastard Fang Jianren. For a woman, her reputation is the most important thing. How can she get married in the future"
"Actually, I don't really want your money. I just can't swallow this humiliation!"
Liu Qitou was in agony, torn between what she should do. Logically, the best solution would be for her sister to marry into the Fang family after her innocence had been destroyed by that scoundrel, Fang Jianren.
This way, the scandal wouldn't be a scandal anymore, and her sister's reputation would be protected.
But Liu Qi's head really looked down on Fang Jianren's spineless appearance. She was unwilling to marry her sister to such a useless man.
He had also thought about killing Fang Jianren with one blow, but after all, he was an official soldier. Killing someone would ruin his future.
Fang Jinshu saw that Liu Qi's head didn't seem to be completely unreasonable. After all, anyone whose sister would encounter such a thing wouldn't be able to remain rational.
He was surprised that Fang Jianren wasn't killed and had already called Fang Jinshi.
I understand Liu Qi's feelings. If my sister were in this situation, I would definitely kill the person to avenge her.
Liu Qi's head turned in surprise, and upon hearing this, Jinxiu also seemed to have changed her opinion somewhat.
"Since you understand my feelings, don't make things difficult for me."
For my sister's reputation, this matter cannot be reported to the authorities. We can only settle it privately.
"My sister, I'm afraid, will never marry in her lifetime. I'm asking you for some extra silver to help her out. Is that too much to ask"
Fang Jinshi shook her head. "Not at all, not at all."
"How much silver do you want"
She was just asking, Fang Jinshu didn't intend to clean up for Fang Jianren. He created this mess, why should she spend her silver to fix it.
Liu Qi stopped for a moment, opened his mouth and blurted out a number, “At the very least, give me five hundred taels.”
"These days, if you don't have enough money, you can't make it."
Fang Jinxiu didn't agree, instead asking, "It seems Liu Qi is quite concerned about his younger sister's marriage."
"With the world in such turmoil and you constantly stationed in the barracks, you can hardly look after your younger sister. If she marries a reliable man who will protect her, wouldn't that be safer than carrying around all this silver"
"To be blunt, even if I were willing to give you all this silver, are you sure your sister would be able to keep it safe and alive until she's old"
Fang Jinshu's words truly struck Liu Qitong's heart. He scratched his head vigorously, troubled and distressed.
"Well then, what can I do about it!"
If Fang Jianren is willing to reform and marry my sister, it would be a happy ending for everyone. But his lazy attitude just makes me angry.
"I don't want to marry my sister off to him yet!"
Fang Jinshu nodded, so Liu Qi also thought the same way.
"If I could make Fang Jianren behave and marry your younger sister, leading a peaceful life..."
Liu Qi's face lit up with joy, "Really If you can truly make him marry my younger sister and live a peaceful life, I will drop this matter."
"Our enemies becoming our in-laws, of course, couldn't be better."
Fang Jinshi smiled, "Don't worry, Liu Qitou. Since I said that, I naturally have some confidence. If I can't do it later, Fang Jianren can be at your disposal, and no one from the Fang family will dare to hold you accountable."
Liu Qi thought about it, this way is also good, no matter how he does not lose.
Today, he came to look for Fang's third daughter because he really couldn't get along with both Fang's husband and wife.
Now that there's a solution, Liu Qi's face finally broke into a smile.
"I didn't expect the Fang family to have such a capable daughter like you. How could your parents bear to sell you to someone else"
"To be honest, this couple really has no taste."
Fāng Jǐnxiù smiled without saying anything. Liú Qítóu wouldn't leave for the time being; he would go back to Fāngjiā Village with Fāng Jǐnxiù.
Unexpectedly, after all the twists and turns, I still have to go back to the Fang family.
After returning home, Mu's mother was puzzled to see her son and daughter-in-law come back so early.
"How come the mountain work today is so fast"
If you're going back to Huifangjiacun, it's still important to let Mu and Zong's family know so they don't worry.es. Without evidence, we shouldn't meddle in this."When Lady X heard this, she was immediately furious."You lot, after all that talk, aren't you just afraid of getting implicated yourselves""I don't b...
