Chapter 306 Peeping
Manager Wang's words stirred up waves in everyone's hearts. Everyone started talking again and turned their eyes to Fang Lairong.
"I didn't expect that the Second Master would do such a thing..."
"Yes, yes, over the years, the Patriarch has been very kind to the Second Master's family..."
"He had someone put itching powder in the ointment. What good would that do him? Could it be that..."
When Fang Lairong saw how things developed, he wanted to retort, but he knew that his elder brother must have been fully prepared by summoning the clansmen together.
Fang Lairong's descendants were standing nearby. When they heard what Manager Wang said, they were furious. Seeing that Fang Lairong did not refute, they did not dare to speak either.
Because many of them knew that Fang Lairong would take action, but Fang Lairong told them not to interfere, so they didn't know the details.
But they could feel that it was Fang Lairong who did it.
Fang Xiaohai ignored him and started yelling, "You're talking nonsense. My grandfather would never do that. You want to blame my grandfather for what you did. I won't let you go."
As Fang Xiaohai spoke, he rushed towards Manager Wang, wanting to beat him up.
Upon seeing this, Butler Chen immediately asked the servant nearby to stop Fang Xiaohai.
"What are you doing? Let me go..." Fang Xiaohai was controlled by several people and immediately shouted.
"Quiet--"
When Mr. Fang saw the chaos at the scene, he yelled and immediately quieted down.
"Master, my grandfather is your biological brother. How could he do such a thing? It must be this shopkeeper Wang who framed my grandfather. You have to help my grandfather!"
"I'm not talking nonsense. I have evidence. There is a letter written to me by Fang Lairong, asking me to follow his instructions. I have already handed the letter to Butler Chen." Shopkeeper Wang said, looking at Butler Chen.
Butler Chen also took out a letter from his arms. He looked at Mr. Fang, and after getting instructions, he handed the letter in his hand to a clan member beside him for reading.
The tribesmen took the letter and unfolded it, looking at every word on it, and found that it was indeed Fang Lairong's handwriting.
The content was exactly as Manager Wang said, Fang Lairong threatened him to do the job.
The letter was circulated among the clan members one by one. When Fang Lairong saw this situation, he felt unprecedented despair. He remembered that this letter was indeed written by him.
"Fang Lairong, what else do you have to say? I think I have been very good to you, why do you want to do something to harm the Fang family?" Old Master Fang asked in a deep voice.
"I...I am innocent. I never wrote this letter."
Although Fang Lairong knew that he wrote the letter, he knew that he could not admit it. He tried to argue, "This letter must be forged, yes... someone forged it, someone wanted to frame me."
Everyone was talking about it, but Mr. Fang was very disappointed. He looked at Butler Chen and said, "Bring out all the evidence."
Butler Chen responded, then took out several documents from his arms. He showed them to everyone one by one and explained.
"These materials all record in detail the flow of money in Xianglaiju, and all have records of Fang Lairong's transactions. In addition to the correspondence, these pieces of evidence are inseparable from the fact that Manager Wang added itching powder to the ointment."
After looking at the evidence, everyone realized that it was indeed Fang Lairong who did it.
Fang Lairong's descendants were even paler, as they knew that once this was confirmed, they would also be implicated.
Fang Lairong was speechless at this time. Although he was very unwilling in his heart, he could not show it. Things had come to this point, and he could not make excuses no matter what.
So he took a deep breath and suppressed all his emotions, and for this, he scratched his palms until they bled.
He took two steps forward and knelt down. When he raised his head and looked at Old Man Fang, his eyes were full of pleading.
"Brother, I know I was wrong. I was just possessed by a ghost for a moment, so I did such a thing. I beg you to give me a chance to make a new beginning. I will never do it again."
Seeing this, his wife Wang Xiaohong, her son Fang Jiayao and a group of younger generations knelt down one after another, kowtowed to Grandpa Fang and begged for mercy.
"Master, please forgive us. Daddy (Grandpa...) is so foolish that he would do such a thing..."
For a moment, cries for mercy were heard one after another in the hall.
Seeing this, many of the other tribesmen in the hall softened their hearts and began to plead for them.
"Since the Second Master knows he is wrong, let's forgive him this time for all the sacrifices he has made for the family over the years. Give him a chance to reform!"
Old Master Fang looked at Fang Lairong and said in a deep voice, "Since everyone is begging for you, I will give you a chance. Tell me, have you done anything else that has let the family down over the years?"
When Fang Lairong heard the first half of the sentence, he was delighted. He thought that as long as he lowered his head, Old Master Fang would soften his heart and would not do anything to him.
But when he heard the second half of the sentence, his face suddenly became stunned and a flash of panic passed through his eyes.
What does he mean by this?
Fang Lairong's mind was racing. Fang Laifu was trying to give him another chance to tell the truth. Was he testing him?
Fang Lairong believed that he had been extremely cautious in everything he did over the years and it was impossible for him to leave any evidence for others to complain about him.
This time, he was too impatient, and coupled with the complaint from Shopkeeper Wang, he exposed his true colors.
So Fang Lairong gritted his teeth and said, "Master, I promise you that apart from the matter of Xianglaiju, I have never done anything to let the family down."
Fang Lairong's expression was very firm, as if he was not lying.
Fang Feifei stood behind Mr. Fang, remaining silent. She treated this as a play.
She watched Fang Lairong acting there, and watched Fang Lairong's expression change from happy to angry after hearing what Old Man Fang said, and she just felt that he was greedy.
And from what Mr. Fang said, it seemed like he gave Fang Lairong a chance. As long as he took the initiative to admit his mistake, Mr. Fang would let him go. But Fang Lairong didn’t seize the opportunity!!!
From the account book that Fang Lairong found in the house outside, she could tell that he had already started eyeing the position of head of the family a long time ago.
