Chapter 555 Fell at Liu Qi's Feet

a canal to bring it down.Though this small pond doesn't hold much water, its advantage is that it's a flowing stream of life, constantly replenished from the mountaintop.That stream, though alive wit...Fang Jianren walked along with the carriage, sweating profusely from exhaustion.

Among those who came to Liu's house for the marriage, none older than him were as exhausted. Instead, the young men in their twenties, after walking a few steps, looked as tired as seventy or eighty-year-olds.

He was breathing harder than a bull.

"I told my uncle, 'You'd better hurry along. At this pace, you'll miss the auspicious hour.'"

Fang Jianren really couldn't take it anymore, he could no longer move a step, so he sat down directly on the ground and lay down.

"I, I can't walk anymore, you are too much! You have a carriage and won't let me ride, not even a drop of water to drink."

"I haven't had breakfast yet."

The more like a hopeless lump of clay he acted, the less the Liu family looked up to him.

"Boss, why don't we just have him sit in the carriage Even if he delays things a bit, the banner won't be any less angry."

The manager gave Fang Jianren several disdainful glances, almost writing "useless" on his face.

Fang Jianren was indeed tired, but he wasn't so exhausted that he couldn't walk at all.

He's pretending, otherwise how would these sycophants let him on the car.

"Alright, alright, help him into the car."

Fang Jianren couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth when he heard this. A bunch of lackeys, they wouldn't disobey him and get in the car.

"Quick, help me up, I can't walk anymore."

"Bring me more food and drink! If you starve and dehydrate me, I'll see if you can find anyone else to marry your daughter!"

“You!” Liu Jia’s servants were furious.

"Just moments ago, the uncle looked like he couldn't muster any energy. But as soon as he heard he could sit in the car, his spirits lifted immediately."

"I think he's faking it," the man below whispered to the supervisor.

The officiant glanced at the time and said helplessly, "Even if he's pretending, there's no way. If we let him dawdle any longer, we won't make it to the auspicious hour for the ceremony."

Fang Jianren was full of pride.

Suddenly, the carriage curtain was lifted from inside, and Fang Jinshu emerged halfway, her gaze fixed on Fang Jianren with a half-smile.

Her expression made Fang Jianren feel a little uneasy under her gaze. He had a bad feeling about this.

"What are you looking at Get out of the way, I'm going up."

Among us, there are some who are older than the eldest brother, and some who are younger.

None of them cried out from fatigue. As the eldest brother was in his prime, he should be at the peak of both physical and mental strength. How could he be so useless

Fang Jianren's face darkened, "Fang Jinxiu, who are you calling useless!"

Fang Jinshi smiled, "I think Liu Qi's decision to let Big Brother walk the whole way is very good. Since Big Brother is not in good health, he should indeed exercise."

"Lest you go to Liu's house later and be outmatched by any woman in terms of physical strength, wouldn't that make people laugh at you for being incompetent"

The two words a man can't stand to hear the most are "not possible," and Fang Jianren is no exception.

Bully tactics worked on him; Fang Jinshu said a few words and he immediately stopped demanding to ride in a carriage.

Instead, he spat viciously at her.

"Who cares about sitting with your white-eyed wolf sister."

"Just go."

Fang Jianren angrily turned and left, not seeing a stone on the ground. He tripped directly over it, falling flat on his face in a very undignified manner.

The servants of the Liu family couldn't help but giggle discreetly.

"What are you laughing at! Get me up!"

The manager simply couldn't bear to look, he truly didn't know why the young master was so insistent on letting this sort of person marry his daughter. Even if he was marrying in, he felt that Fang Jianren was unworthy.

Watching Fang Jianren's huff and puff as he continued on his journey, Fang Jinshuu retracted the smile from her lips, lowered the carriage curtain, and resumed discussing matters with Zong Yu.

Li Shui Town is less than ten miles away from Fangjia Village. For people in the countryside who are not used to using transportation, this is considered close.

They rushed and finally arrived at Liu Qi Tou's house before the auspicious time, the carriage stopping at the door.

The front door was crowded with relatives and friends of the Liu family.

Liu Yuanwai's steward found Fang Jianren's appearance too shabby. As soon as he entered the town, he had him changed into a new set of clothes and his hair was restyled.

He wiped the sweat off his face.

If he pretended to be five points tired halfway there, now he's truly exhausted, overloaded!

"Please, give me some water to drink."

Liu's steward had always disliked his slow pace, wasting a lot of time along the way. Now that auspicious time was almost here, who had the time to get him water

He was pushed directly to Liu Jia's doorstep and fell at the feet of Liu Qi.ould go home and wait.Waiting for Zong Hu to come to the door and say he wants to split the family himself."Zong Hu's arm needs careful care. If there's no water, just use a cloth to wipe it lightly a...
