After a few days of continuous rain, it finally cleared up.
Fei Guixiang got up early and cleaned up the upstairs and downstairs. She went upstairs to get a set of clean clothes and urged her father to change.
Fei Mushan was in a hurry to go to the teahouse for breakfast. He said,"I've only worn it for three days. Isn't it very clean? Don't change.”
Fei Guixiang said,"You'd better not change your clothes all year round." After wearing it for three days, it was still not long enough. Do you have a nose? Can't you smell the stench of sweat? Going to the teahouse in a dirty manner, aren't you afraid that people will laugh at you?”
"What's so funny?"
"You're not afraid of being laughed at, but I'm afraid that people will say that you gave birth to a lazy daughter.”
"My daughter is the most hardworking girl in this town. Your godmother often praises you like this.”
"Alright, alright. You talk too much. Take it off quickly!" Fei Guixiang said as she went to unbutton her father's shirt.
Fei Mushan changed his clothes and hurried to the teahouse.
Fei Guixiang finished washing her clothes and left with the basket. She weighed a few carp and two catties of mud trout at the fresh fish stall and wanted to pay.
The fish stall owner was Weng Zitang's eldest son, Weng Fuyao. He grabbed Fei Guixiang's hand and said with a smile,""What money is that? If you want to eat fish in the future, just come and get it.”
Fei Guixiang was very disgusted. She glared at Weng Fuzhen and said,"What happened to your hand? It's itchy. You want to be beaten up!"
Weng Fuzhen liked Fei Guixiang, but he was also afraid that she would scream. He quickly reached into the fish bucket and caught a mandarin fish. He put it in her basket and said with a smile,"Mandarin fish is the best in this season. It's stewed and braised-"
Fei Guixiang poured the fish in the basket onto the ground and said angrily,"Burn your soul! Do you think your great-aunt is greedy? If you have the money, go to the hall and whore!"
Weng Fuyao still wanted to please him, so he said,"Why are you angry? I'm just being kind."
"You're so kindhearted! Your grandmother's tofu is not delicious. If you do this again in the future, I'll break your hand!”
The people around him laughed.
"You!" Weng Fuqi flew into a rage out of humiliation and reached out to hit him.
Fei Guixiang wasn't afraid at all. She still stood there and sneered,"You want to hit someone? It was pretty good. I was beaten up by fewer people. If you have the guts, then fight!"
Weng Fuyao thought that this girl was really so powerful that she couldn't be provoked. She could only smile and say,"Okay, okay." I'll call you big sister and pick a few good ones for you, alright?”
"Who wants your slut!" After Fei Guixiang finished speaking, she walked to the fish stall opposite and bought it. After she bought the vegetables, she saw the gardener, Shen Shuigen, walking over with a basket of bright roses. "Uncle Shui Gen, are you going to sell these flowers?”
Shuigen smiled honestly and said,"Who else is buying flowers these days? I'm sending them to Doctor Luo." If you like it, take some."
Fei Guixiang knew that Doctor Luo was Luo Yuzhen from the Hua Family. Godmother had told him that this elegant woman loved to grow flowers. When she heard Shuigen say that, she picked a few flowers from his basket and paid him.
Shen Shuigen quickly put the money into Fei Guixiang's basket, smiled, and left.
Fei Guixiang went home and washed a glass bottle. She stuck the roses in it and placed it on the table in front of her bed. She kissed the rich red flowers and went downstairs to cook.
Because his daughter's mud trout tofu was delicious, Fei Mushan drank a few more cups of Shaoxing Shanjiu wine. He was a little drunk and leaned against the table, wanting to sleep.
Fei Guixiang took pity on her father. She placed the bamboo couch at the door and helped him lie down on the bamboo couch. She was afraid that the buzzing flies would disturb her father's good sleep, so she lit a mosquito coil beside the bamboo couch. She picked up a bamboo chair and gently put it down beside her father. She took a garden shed and sat down, quietly embroidering flowers. She was good at embroidery. Many women often begged her to embroider pillows or shoes with embroidery thread and satin. She didn't want other people's wages and only wanted to make herself happy. He would do whatever she wanted, even if he had to work himself to death. She would ignore those who did not suit her heart. She was not someone who could be coaxed with a few nice words.
Seeing that her father was sleeping soundly, she suddenly started crying. Tears were still flowing from her closed eyes. She thought that her father was thinking about her cruel mother again. She hated her mother. Four years ago, he had abandoned her, abandoned her honest father, and left with a businessman from another city. Her father often drank and sighed, and sometimes he even cried behind her back. She also often advised her father that there were plenty of women in the world and that he could marry another one. Her father said that his wife was handsome and was cheated away. There were too many men who kidnapped women in this world. She laughed at her father and said," My feet are born under my belly. I don't want to walk. I won't walk even if I'm tied up. Your wife is born with a ruthless heart. Marry another one!" His father also said,'The sun in June is my fist,' which made you suffer. She smiled and said," Your daughter isn't afraid that this woman will pull my tendons and skin me alive." As long as you don't find another handsome and cruel woman and follow another man. No matter how much she tried to persuade him, her father still refused to listen. She understood that his father still hoped that her mother would come back. Sigh, there really is such a devoted man in this world! Seeing that his father was still crying, she was afraid that he would get sick from being sad, so she pushed him awake and said,"Dad, did you dream of a ghost? Look at your tears."
Fei Mushan had dreamed of his wife. The woman flew over and kissed him before flying away. He didn't dare to tell his daughter that this girl was cursing her mother, but he silently pitied his wife and missed her. He wiped away his tears with the back of his hand and smiled at his daughter. He stood up and went into the house. He didn't open a shop. Every afternoon at two or three o'clock, he would carry a burden to sell oily dried tofu and rose sweet wine along the street. At six o'clock in the evening, he would carry a wooden box to sell betel nuts. These three foods were his specialty. They tasted good and were loved by everyone in D City. They even gave him a nickname,"San Xian Store." The goods were good, the sales were good, and the father and daughter were still living comfortably. He looked at the alarm clock and saw that it was already past two o'clock, so he picked up the load and went out.
Fei Guixiang embroidered for a while more. She remembered that she should fry a few braised carp for her father to drink tonight. She picked up the two carp she had bought in the morning from the water tank and went to the riverside.
Hua Shijie had just swam over from the river port in front of his house and was resting on the platform beside the river port.
Fei Guixiang had seen Hua Shijie, but he was bare-chested and wearing a pair of shorts. She felt embarrassed and pretended not to see him. She turned her back to him and continued to kill the fish.
Hua Shijie felt that this girl looked familiar. After thinking about it carefully, he remembered that she had accompanied Jiang Shanshan to the house to mourn. She had even said a few words to him that day. At that time, he was sad and didn't think much of it, but today, he felt that she had a unique charm. Seeing that she ignored him, he was a little unhappy and wanted to make things difficult for her. She stood up and jumped into the river with a splash, causing the waves to fly high and fall on Fei Guixiang's head, face, and body like raindrops.
Fei Guixiang was shocked. She looked into the river and saw Hua Shijie coming out of the water and smiling at her. She was so angry that she cursed the words "corpse" and "memorial tablet".
Hua Shijie felt that her anger made her look even more delicate, so he laughed loudly.
Fei Guixiang picked up the carp that had just been cut open and threw it at Hua Shijie's head, saying,""I'll let you laugh! I'll make you laugh!"
Hua Shijie turned his head and the carp fell into the water. It wagged its tail and swam away.
Fei Guixiang was so angry that she picked up another carp and threw it at him.
Hua Shijie did not dodge. He reached out and caught the fish.
Fei Guixiang wanted to catch a fish and throw it at him, but she saw that there was only a pool of fish blood and scales left on the stone steps. There was a stone beside it. She picked it up and threw it at him, but he dodged it. She actually picked up the kitchen knife and was about to throw it.
Hua Shijie deliberately raised his hands and said,"Please spare my life!"”
Fei Guixiang was amused. She bent down, put her hands into the water, and splashed water at him.
Hua Shijie swam towards her. Just as he stood up and threw the fish he caught onto the stone steps of the river port, he was suddenly pushed by Fei Guixiang on his chest. He fell back into the water and ate some water. His nose was sour and he coughed continuously.
Fei Guixiang sat on the stone steps, clapping her hands and laughing loudly.
The carp that was thrown onto the stone steps had its scales scraped off, but it still jumped and jumped into the river and swam away.
Hua Shijie went ashore and sat down beside Fei Guixiang.
Fei Guixiang didn't avoid it and sat down with her arms around her knees."How dare you tease me in broad daylight!”
" Teasing?!" Hua Shijie shrugged and smiled." I'll take it as flirting. Who asked you to be so beautiful and arrogant?"”
" Arrogant?!"
"You clearly know me, so why are you ignoring me?”
"Which woman would call a man first? I'm cheap!"
"I'm the one who's cheap! He pushed her into the water and drank a whole stomach of water, but she was accused of 'molesting'. Lord Qingtian, what kind of punishment do you want to give?”
"I should gouge out your eyes so that you won't stare at women like a slanderous cat.”
"If you don't look at me, how do you know I'm looking at you? If you want to dig, you have to dig first.”Hua Shijie deliberately looked into her eyes and said,"Yo, these eyes are so beautiful, they're so captivating, they're rare in this world. Keep it. It's a pity to dig it up, a pity to dig it up!”
Fei Guixiang chuckled and said,"Are my eyes really that attractive?"”
"Your eyes seem to be surging with a spring tide that can break through the heart. Your eyes are like a raging fire that can melt even the iron heart. You-"
"Stop flattering me. I won't let you take advantage of me.”Fei Guixiang giggled again.
Hua Shijie felt that her laughter had a kind of hearty sweetness, but also a kind of forthright wild game.
It was Fei Guixiang's first time sitting side by side with a young man. She could smell a man's scent, which was stronger than the fragrance of roses and more exciting than wine. She looked at his strong muscles and secretly praised him, saying,"It's not even June yet and you're already in the water.”
"I started swimming a month ago.”Hua Shijie deliberately teased her and said,"Did you steal your fish?"”
"Nonsense!"
"Then why did you pick it up and throw it?”
"You're the one who made me angry."
"What if I anger you again?"
"I'll hit you."
"Are you that ruthless and daring?"
" It's the same between people. If you don't bully me, I won't bully you. If you bully me, I'll fight with my life. I won't live until you die anyway.”
"Why do you think the same as me?”
"You are you, and I am me. Bridge to bridge, road to road. If you take advantage of me again, I will cut you with a knife.”
"Won't you feel sorry for me if I die?"
"If you die, the world will be quiet. I'm happy.”
"Even if you live, this world will not be peaceful. I want to cry.”
The two of them looked at each other as they spoke and laughed.
Fei Guixiang suddenly remembered and said,"I heard that the county has determined that your second brother is a counter-revolutionary who deliberately killed a cadre and even revoked your medical license."“
Hua Shijie said indignantly,"Bullshit!”
"I heard Godmother say that she was wronged. I think so too.”
"My second brother died unjustly in the first place. How can a person swallow this humiliation when he puts on this hat?”
"Then defend yourself!"
"I've long wanted to risk my life, but my sister-in-law stopped me no matter what. She said that this was her personal matter and that she should be the one to complain. I was afraid that sister-in-law would be anxious, so I endured it.”
"What your sister-in-law said makes sense. I heard that your sister-in-law is very capable.”Fei Guixiang saw that Hua Shijie was still depressed and wanted to tease him. She said,"Hey, why didn't you commit suicide?"
"It's not easy for people to come to this world. Why would I commit suicide?”
I can see that you're full of resentment. Aren't you also feeling uncomfortable?" She deliberately picked up her kitchen knife and said,""Why don't I give you a knife in your stomach to vent this resentment so that you can live a easier life?”
Hua Shijie also made her laugh. He deliberately showed his belly and said,"Alright, you can pull the knife here. It had to be deep. Otherwise, there would be endless grievances.”
Fei Guixiang put down her knife and giggled.
Hua Shijie felt that she was lively and naive, optimistic and generous, and had a sharp tongue. He was happy and said some funny things.
Fei Guixiang laughed, scolded, and pretended to be angry. She found him interesting.
The two of them were so happy that they forgot that there were other people in this world. Unexpectedly, Fang Zhaorong happened to walk past them. When he saw this, he felt uncomfortable and even a little angry. He had always looked down on Hua Shijie. He had grown up with his second brother and had been studying medicine with him for the past few years. He didn't know how to treat patients alone. He was smart, but because it was too ridiculous, he would be a fool in the future. He really wanted to call his goddaughter up, but he didn't dare. He was afraid that his goddaughter would be unhappy, and he was also afraid that he would offend Hua Shijie. No matter who the two of them were, if Jiang Shanshan found out, his life would be even more difficult. Jiang Shanshan had been looking for him for the past few days because of the Hua family's medical case. He only felt pity for his goddaughter. What could Hua Shijie do? It seemed that his desire for a goddaughter was in vain. He smiled coldly and walked over.
Fei Guixiang saw a fishing boat coming from the East Gate Water Town. The person sitting on the bow looked like Shen Huimin. She knew the relationship between the Shen siblings and the Hua family. She was afraid that they would talk too much when they saw her, so she stood up and wanted to leave.
Hua Shijie stopped her when he saw that she had forgotten the kitchen knife.
"I don't have time to waste on you," Fei Guixiang said with a smile.”
Hua Shijie picked up the kitchen knife and said,"I don't know which muddle-headed person lost it."”
"It's you who's confused!”Fei Guixiang wanted to retrieve the knife.
"The Hua family's great aunt died long ago.”Hua Shijie refused to give it.
"The dead are dead, and the living are still alive.”
"I cultivated well in my previous life, so I actually have such a smart, young, and beautiful aunt.”
Fei Guixiang looked at the fishing boats on the river and said,""Whose boat are you looking at? Give me the knife.”
Hua Shijie saw that it was Shen Huimin's fishing boat and said,""Don't go!" He raised his voice and shouted,"Huimin, paddle over here, quickly!"”
Shen Huimin had already seen Hua Shijie and wanted to row over. Shen Huilian saw a girl sitting beside Hua Shijie and stopped her brother. When he heard Hua Shijie's call, he hurriedly rowed over.
When Shen Huimin's fishing boat approached, Hua Shijie said,""I'll release her Crucian Carps. Hurry up and pick a few big ones for me.”
" Ah," Shen Huimin replied. He picked up the net and put it into the water cabin to catch the fish.
Fei Guixiang quickly said,"I threw the fish myself. Who asked you to go through the trouble? Give me the kitchen knife!"”
"What are you busy with? Without an enemy like me, would you be so angry that you would throw a fish?”
"I'm happy to. It's none of your business.”
"If you're willing to throw, I'm willing to pay. I'm happy, you're happy, and the siblings are happy too. Isn't that a happy ending?”
"He went through so much trouble to catch you, but you can easily do him a favor.”
Shen Huimin had already scooped up four huge carps that weighed about one catty each. He said,""Miss, it's alright. What's mine is Little Uncle's. Take it.”
Seeing that they were sincere, Fei Guixiang no longer declined. She deliberately said to Hua Shijie,"I threw the ones that I killed. I don't want the ones that I didn't kill.”
Hua Shijie touched his head and said,"Aunt, I've grown up, but I still only know how to eat fish."”
"So you're also a pampered young master!" Fei Guixiang laughed sarcastically. If it were me, I wouldn't even let you drink a drop of fish soup.”
"If it were you, you would have even bitten off your bones.”
"Bullshit!" As Fei Guixiang spoke, she started laughing.
Shen Huimin smiled, took out his knife, and silently killed the fish. With just a few strokes, the four-tailed carp was killed. He took a straw and skewered it together before handing it to Fei Guixiang, saying,"In the future, if you want any fish, just ask. Uncle and I are all the same.”
"Thank you!" Fei Guixiang took the fish and the kitchen knife and walked up the stone steps of the river port. He only turned around and waved at them when he reached the intersection.
The evening glow gently shone on her body, and her fair face looked even more enchanting, like the first blossoming apricot flowers. The curves of her body were so full and gentle, filled with the charm of youth. Even Shen Huilian, who was sitting on the deck, said enviously,"She's so pretty!"
When Fei Guixiang returned home, she saw her father sitting in front of the stove hole, holding a bamboo fire tube and blowing the wind into the stove hole. She quickly put down the fish, took a towel, and gave it to her father. She said with pity and resentment,"You're so impatient! Didn't I come back? I want you to be busy. Go lie down on the bamboo couch and rest.”
Fei Mushan didn't lie down to rest. He just tidied up the wooden box that contained the betel nuts.
Fei Guixiang quickly finished cooking and cooking.
When Fei Mushan was drinking, he looked at his daughter several times and wanted to ask her about the river port. Fang Zhaorong met him on the way and told him to persuade Fei Guixiang. However, he did not dare to say it out loud, afraid that his daughter would be angry. His daughter was filial to him and loved to talk back to him. He loved his daughter and had never said anything harsh.
Normally, Fei Guixiang would have seen through her father's actions. Today, she did not even look at her father. It was as if the handsome and humorous Hua Shijie was still standing in front of her. Sometimes, she couldn't help but laugh.
Fei Mushan laughed along with his daughter, then asked,"What's so funny?"
Fei Guixiang was a little disappointed that her father had disrupted her happy thoughts. She filled her father's glass with wine. He said,"You just take care of the wine in your cup. Laugh if you want to laugh, cry if you want to cry. Don't worry about your daughter."”
Fei Mushan felt that his daughter was right. As a person, he only needed to watch his wine glass and not care about the outside world."Long live the emperor, and the people get drunk every day.”He picked up the glass that his daughter had filled and drank it in satisfaction. After drinking and eating dinner, he carried the wooden box and leisurely went out to sell betel nuts.
Fei Guixiang cleaned up the dishes and went upstairs and downstairs. She loved to clean and would clean it twice every morning and evening. Therefore, even though the tables and chairs were left behind by her grandfather and the paint had peeled off, they were still polished and not stained by dust.
Fei Guixiang was sweating profusely, so she took a basin of hot water and went upstairs to take a shower. She sat in the red wooden basin and splashed water on her body. She wiped her plump skin with both hands. When she looked at the snow-white breasts on the Ru room, they were so red that they looked like cherry buds. She also felt that they were cute. She stretched out her slender fingers and gently rubbed it. It was as if there was a stream of air flowing in the Ru room, giving off a slightly numb and comfortable feeling. She was shocked and thought that her fingers were stained with some monster. She quickly reached into the wooden basin to wipe it, and this feeling gradually disappeared. She realized that women needed this feeling.
After she finished showering, she lay down on the bamboo couch and wanted to close her eyes comfortably to rest, but she could not calm down. It was as if she needed something, but she could not say what it was. Her heart was in a daze, and gradually, a hazy worry arose. She wanted to get rid of this inexplicable resentment, so she went to get a basket of beans and poured them on the eight square table. The betel nut beans that her father made had to be of the same size and not be damaged by worms. As she picked and picked, her worries became thicker and thicker like the morning fog. She dropped this task and sat down on the bamboo couch again. Worry still pestered her, and she started crying. As she cried, she felt that she was being ridiculous. Why was she crying? No one was bullying her. Her father would listen to her and live a comfortable life. She had no tears. Even when her cruel mother abandoned her, she did not shed any tears. If she thought that you could grit your teeth and fly away, she would grit her teeth and hate you to death.
It seemed like it was going to rain again, and it was very stuffy. Fei Guixiang, who was troubled, almost couldn't breathe. She went out and wanted to take a walk on the long bridge. Once it was early summer, the bridge became a place for the people of D City to hang out at night. She had just walked onto the long bridge when she saw a few young people surrounding her father and jeering. When she walked closer, she saw that Weng Fuzhen was among them. She knew that he must be venting his anger on her father. She squeezed her way to her father's side and asked,"Dad, what happened?"”
Fei Mushan knew his daughter's temper. He was afraid that she would be at a disadvantage if she quarreled, so he said,""It's fine. Let's go!" He was about to walk out of the crowd.
Fei Guixiang pulled her father back and said,"What are you afraid of? What is it for?"”
Fei Mushan had no choice but to stammer,""They ate two bags of betel nuts and didn't pay. They even said that I was a black-hearted peddler selling rotten beans.”She almost cried." Let's go!”
How could Fei Guixiang still be willing to leave?" Stand there," she said." You can't be bullied for nothing!”Seeing that Weng Fuyao was about to slip away, she grabbed the hem of his clothes and said,"Take care! Dad, is it this fish boss?”Her father nodded.
Weng Fuyao wanted to humiliate Guixiang. She said,"You slut, don't you have any shame? You're trying to attract customers in front of so many people!"”
Fei Guixiang stretched out her hand and slapped Weng Fuzhen, saying,"Watch your mouth!"
With five or six young friends around him, Weng Fuzhen grabbed her long braid with one hand and punched her chest with the other.
The timid Fei Mushan saw that his daughter was about to suffer a loss, so he went all out and took the wooden box to hold her up.
Weng Fuzhen's fist hit the corner of the wooden box and he cried out in pain. Naturally, he let go of his grip on the braids. He said to his friends around him,"What are you guys staring at?”
His friends pounced on Fei Mushan.
Fei Guixiang picked up a large stone beside the railing of the bridge and was about to throw it at the person who had hit her father.
Coincidentally, Hua Shijie, who was passing by, saw it. He quickly went up to catch the stone in Fei Guixiang's hand and said,"Don't be reckless! Let go!"
"Didn't you see them bullying us?" Fei Guixiang complained.
Hua Shijie grabbed the stone and ran towards the few people, shouting,""Let go of me-I'll smash anyone who tries to do it again!”
When those people saw that it was Hua Shijie, they were originally afraid of him and hid to the side.
Hua Shijie saw that they were all his children and asked,"What's going on? So many people are bullying his father?”
"Family members of the counter-revolution, it's better to mind your own business," said Weng Fuzhen with a sneer.”
This angered Hua Shijie. He stared at Weng Fuyao with a cold smile and said,""Say it again!" Weng Fuyao thought that Hua Shijie was already a fish that had been driven ashore. It was useless to jump again. The more you jumped, the more people scolded you. So he boldly repeated it.
Hua Shijie grabbed Weng Fuyao's chest and sneered,""I have to interfere in this matter!" She reached out and slapped him twice before pushing him hard.
Weng Fuyao took a few steps back and fell to the ground. He sat on the ground and pointed at Hua Shijie hatefully."You, you-"
Hua Shijie ignored him and asked the other children what was going on.
Fei Guixiang saw that they were silent and said,"They ate my dad's betel nuts for nothing and falsely accused him of being infested by worms. They surrounded my dad and jeered.”
Weng Fuzhen had already laid down and shouted,"You're talking nonsense. They're clearly rotten beans!”
Hua Shijie said,"Since you said it was moth-eaten, take it out and let everyone see."”
"I threw it into the river." Weng Fuyao pointed at Hua Shijie and said,"You don't understand the truth. You took the opportunity to hit someone. If you have the guts, come with me to the police station."?”
Hua Shijie said,"I'll definitely accompany you. Pay for the betel nuts first."”
"If you want to pay, go to the police station!" Weng Fuzhen thought that the police would never speak up for the family members of the counter-revolution.
"Let's go! Let's see if you can deny this money!" Hua Shijie wanted to follow.
Fei Guixiang was worried that Hua Shijie would be at a disadvantage, so she stopped him and said,"If he wants to go, I should go. I still want to sue him for being a hooligan!”
Weng Fuzhen sneered,"I'm a hooligan? Hmph, everyone saw it. You were the one who grabbed my clothes. You're shameless and you're biting me instead.”
Fei Guixiang was extremely fragrant, so she loudly told him about the fish she had bought in the morning and linked it to the betel nut beans at night. She said,"Everyone, please comment. Is he deliberately picking a fight?”
Only then did the onlookers understand. Besides, they had all eaten Fei Mushan's betel nuts before. The goods were really valuable and delicious, so they all started to coax him. He said,"You molested a woman and you still want to accuse her of being a hooligan. You deserve to be beaten!" Drag him to the police station!"
Hua Shijie's little friend, Wei Abao, squeezed through the crowd and said,""Third Monkey, if you hit this hooligan again, I'll take the blame!”
Weng Fuzhen panicked and wanted to escape. The other young men also escaped.
Hua Shijie stopped Weng Fuyao and said,""If you want to escape, fine. You have to pay first.”
Fei Mushan was satisfied that everyone was speaking up for him. He was afraid that things would blow up, so he said,""Forget it, forget it. Guixiang, let's go back!”
Everyone was dissatisfied. He said,"San Xian, what are you afraid of? You want him to pay!"”
Weng Fuyao had to pay for two bags of beans.
Hua Shijie didn't care about the money, but he thought of what Weng Fuyao had said just now. He said,""Not enough. I said I'll compensate you. Look at the mess of beans on the ground, you have to pay!”
Everyone said in unison,"Pay, pay!"”
Weng Fuzhen didn't expect that it would anger the public, so he had no choice but to pay ten packets of beans. Before he left, he glared at Hua Shijie and squeezed out of the crowd."I want to sue you!"
Wei Abao said to Fei Guixiang,"There weren't three monkeys just now-what are you laughing at?"”
"To think you called him Monkey."
"What do you know? He's smart and nimble. People call him the Third Monkey. Without him, all of you would have died today.”
Fei Guixiang smiled gratefully at Hua Shijie, but said,"I don't want you to be a busybody."
Hua Shijie smiled and said,"How can I not care about my own business?"”
Fei Guixiang chuckled and pulled her father back."It's time to go back. If you don't want to leave, they won't let you drink.”
Hua Shijie said,"If you want to drink, there's plenty. Come with me."”
"I won't say that you're generous." Fei Guixiang helped her father down the bridge.
Fei Mushan felt that he had offended someone, so he sighed to himself.
When they got home, Fei Guixiang saw that her father was feeling depressed, so she served him some food and wine and said,"Dad, why are you still angry? Let's drink.”
As Fei Mushan drank, he recalled Fang Zhaorong's words and looked at his daughter. "You have a partner."
Fei Guixiang widened her eyes in embarrassment and anger. "Who's gossiping?"
Fei Mushan remembered Fang Zhaorong's repeated exhortations not to say that it was Fang Zhaorong who said it, so he smiled and said,""That's good. Nine out of ten men in the world lie. Dad was afraid that you would be cheated away by the prodigal son, so he guessed.”
Fei Guixiang knew that her father was not a person who would make wild guesses. Someone must be making up rumors behind his back, saying,"Dad, who's talking nonsense? If you don't tell me what happened, I'll leave immediately!”
Fei Mushan panicked. He felt like he was in a dilemma. He thought for a moment and said,"The three monkeys of the Hua family can't even take care of themselves. Why are they still helping us? So I think you guys are that.”
Fei Guixiang found it funny and did not defend herself. She said,"When you see injustice on the road, draw your sword and help. Who told you to be so timid? I think you must have lost your mind. Your daughter is so cheap and flirtatious that she would just follow him.”
"That's good. I know that my daughter is steady and won't leave with a playboy like him.”
Fei Guixiang was very disgusted when she heard this. Father, don't ruin people for no reason. I think he's a well-behaved good person!”
"You like him?" Fei Mushan was annoyed.”
Fei Guixiang was annoyed." Yes," she said." I like him. I'll marry him tomorrow."-- Crazy!"
Fei Mushan was annoyed. He sat there and smoked without saying anything else.
Fei Guixiang looked at her father's expression and felt pity and amused. She smiled and pushed her father, saying,"Your daughter is not an easy fish to catch. No matter how greedy a cat is, it will only bark. She was not a greedy cat. Don't let your imagination run wild. Your daughter is still young. -- Dad, who did you hear him say that he's a playboy?”
"I heard it from the people in the teahouse," Fei Mushan said. You can't hear anything there."
"What else have you heard about him?"
Fei Mushan said," I heard that he's smart, but he doesn't learn well. He's already in his early twenties, but he's always been by his second brother's side. He doesn't know how to treat illnesses and only wants to play. He's useless." This time, they would be even more unlucky if they became the family members of the counter-revolution.”

"What if it's related?" Fei Guixiang said deliberately.”

A thick fog of frustration rose in her heart again…She felt as if there was a strong hand gently knocking on her heart. Was it Hua Shijie? No, she did not think that she had fallen in love with him. Then who was it? Nobody. The call of love sprouted faintly in her heart, but she was at a loss. She only felt inexplicably irritated, but she did not know that this was the disturbance of love…
