Chapter 544 Fang Dazhu was actually a little heartbroken

orld that Zong Bo wouldn’t be taking the imperial examinations was just to appease the elders.”"Our house is located halfway up the mountain. We rarely interact with villagers, and even if Zongbei goe...Fang Dazhu also regretted it.

"If I had known back then that Zong Yu was so capable and his family was so wealthy, even if I let Xiaochao marry him, I wouldn't have allowed Fang Jinshu to go."

"Xiao Cao is only thirteen years old! Who would want her"

Wang Xiumei pulled her daughter hard and scolded, "How do you speak to your father"

"You still let her marry into that family, do you think we don't know your little thoughts"

"If you really marry him, my wife and I will probably never even see a single hair on your head for the rest of our lives."

Fang Mingxia let out a cold laugh. "In your eyes, am I such a heartless person"

"Father, Mother, if you hadn't forced my second sister to sign that selling contract back then, we wouldn't be in this situation today."

"Ermei's heart has been chilled by you all."

At this, Fang Da Zhu was unwilling to listen. The three of them argued at the doorstep, attracting onlookers from left and right neighbors.

"Enough, enough! All of you shut up! Go inside and stop embarrassing yourselves out here. You've already made our family look bad these past few days, haven't you"

Fang Dazhu hurriedly sent his wife and daughter home. Upon returning, he found Fang Jianren missing. He immediately shouted into the room.

"Little grass, little grass! Where did your big brother go Go quickly and bring him back."

"Father, didn't you forget that Xiaocao went to deliver a message to your second daughter's family on the mountain" Fang Mingxia said angrily.

Now I only remember the fourth daughter. How could our parents not care about their several daughters

Fang Mingxia almost forgot about Fang Dazhu if he didn't mention him.

"That's right, Xiaocao went to the Zong family to deliver a message."

"Didn't Fang Jinshu return with honor How come she didn't bring Xiaocao back"

Wang Xiumei also chimed in with her complaints, "That's right, since Xiaocao isn't around this time, all the chores at home fall on me."

She poked Fang Mingxia's forehead with her index finger, "You little brat, you just know how to shirk your work all day and don't even help me share some household chores."

Fang Mingxia dodged everywhere from the accusations and scolding of the two, extending her still tender ten fingers, and shouted righteously.

"Didn't you say I was going to marry into a wealthy family and become a mistress These hands mustn't get rough from hard work!"

"It's you who want me to soar to new heights, to become a phoenix and lead our family to a better life."

"Now those who blame me for not working are you yourselves."

"To think I'm treated like an outsider, both inside and out!"

Fang Mingxia wasn't someone to be trifled with. Fang Dazhu and Wang Xiumei were no match for her sharp tongue. She easily rattled them, leaving their faces flushed red with anger as they pointed accusing fingers at her.

"Good, good you little brat, before you really thought you were the most promising and obedient one among your sisters."

"Now it seems you are not even half as obedient, capable and filial as your younger sister Caocao!"

When it comes to talking about little grasses, Fang Mingxia would rather laugh.

"Oh, now you remember that Xiao Cao is obedient, capable, and filial"

"Didn't you send her up the mountain to find your second sister, and not even give her decent provisions"

"Knowing that there are many wild beasts in the mountains, and even a hunter could get killed if they're unlucky, you still forced Xiaocǎo to go into the mountains."

“It’s possible the little grass is already dead in the mountains, all because of you!”

Fang Mingxia grew increasingly colder as she spoke. In a moment of uncontrolled emotion, she blurted out the last sentence, and her heart skipped a beat.

Know what shouldn't be shouted out loud.

She quietly raised her eyes to look at her parents' faces. Sure enough, they were dark and gloomy, as if thunderclouds had gathered above them.

"Father, I..."

Just as she was about to speak and make amends, suddenly Fang Dazhu raised his arm and with a slap sent her staggering and nearly crashing to the ground.

Her originally fair complexion instantly swelled with a clear imprint of a slap.

"If you keep talking nonsense, tomorrow I'll find someone to sell your teeth back to you!"

"Neither of you looks favorably upon us as your parents."

"How could I have raised such a heartless, ungrateful wretch"

Fang Dazhu was really furious this time. If these words came from Er Ya, Fang Jinshiu's mouth, he would at most just feel embarrassed and annoyed that she was disrespectful.

Ke Fangmingxia was his first daughter, and among the three girls, she received the most love.

She was also his most beloved daughter.

To his surprise, even she thought he was cruel and heartless. Fang Dazhu was genuinely hurt by this.Zhi'an turned his head and looked back, very surprised."You didn't leave"What could be so important that Fang Jinshu would wait here for a whole dayHe walked over and gestured for her to sit, taking t...
