Chapter 136: I'm Not a Wild Child
Aunt Ding said respectfully: "The second young master is back." ”
"Yes. Huo Liyi responded perfunctorily, greeted the old lady, and then turned his gaze on Yun Tian: "Hey, which child are you, so angry?"
Yun Tian ignored him, didn't even give him a look, and just said straight to the old lady, "Grandma, what do you think?"
His small body is straight, and his little face with baby fat is written neither humble nor arrogant.
Huo Liyi pulled the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, and sneered: "Heh, you dare to ignore me? Grandma, such an impolite wild child, don't pay attention to him." ”
Yun Tian turned his head and said in a calm tone: "I'm not a wild child!"
"You're not a wild child, you're ......"
Huo Liyi raised his eyebrows arrogantly, but froze at the moment when he faced Shangyun Tian's face.
This kid looks so familiar!
With deep eyes and three-dimensional facial features, it is exactly the same as Huo Liting when he was a child!
His eyes turned positive, and his tone was full of disbelief: "You are Ah Ting's son?"
Yun Tian didn't speak, and turned his head to look away.
Huo Liyi was anxious, and his tone unconsciously increased: "You speak! Are you ......?"
"Ayi!" Old Lady Huo snorted softly and interrupted Huo Liyi's words: "You be quiet, don't scare the child." He is Xiao Nuan's son, as for whether it is Ah Ting's, it is uncertain. ”
Huo Li was speechless: "Grandma, you can't see it, I don't know how similar this child is to Ah Ting when he was a child, how can he ......"
"Enough. Old Lady Huo frowned impatiently.
This second child has a low IQ and low EQ, so he can't even hear the topic of transferring?
The company handed him over the overall situation, which is really unreassuring!
When she turned her head to Shangyuntian again, the old lady immediately returned to a loving smile on her face: "In any case, as long as you are sure that he is Xiao Nuan's son, he is also my good great-grandson." ”
Yuntian's eyes flashed, and a faint warmth swelled in his heart.
Huo Liyi's heart was on fire: "Grandma, you are too partial. Forget if you liked that ugly girl back then, now you not only help her, but also help her son, we are your own grandson!"
Without waiting for the old lady to speak, he continued: "That ugly girl had an accident back then, you don't even care if you don't see Ah Ting, and you don't even care if Ah Ting does it to the eldest brother." Doesn't the eldest brother just want to monopolize the power? He is the eldest son of our Huo family, isn't this a normal thing? Ah Ting is like crazy, he doesn't admit his feelings, and what kind of behavior has he forced the eldest brother to be? If it weren't for the murder and the law, I suspect that he would personally stab the eldest brother to death with a knife!"
"Shut up!"
Mrs. Huo slapped the armrest of the sofa and said sternly: "Wrong is wrong." Do you really think what your eldest brother did back then was right?"
Huo Liyi saw that the old lady was angry, and immediately coaxed.
He pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice: "Yes, the eldest brother was at fault back then, but it wasn't so wrong that he was driven out and killed! If it weren't for Ah Ting's suspicion that the eldest brother killed that ugly girl, how could Ah Ting be so ruthless?"
"You are a typical victim guilty!" Yun Tian turned his head and looked at Huo Liyi with a cold gaze: "Don't forget, my mommy is the biggest victim of this matter." ”
"But isn't she good now? and gave birth to a big fat boy like you, but my eldest brother ......."
"Wrong is wrong, right is right, and no one in this society can be weak or just! Besides, since someone wants to provoke a war, he must be ready to pay the price!"
The words are sharp and to the point!
Before Huo Liyi finished speaking, he was choked back by Yun Tian.
He almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.
He is a dignified seven-foot man, and now he is being reprimanded by a five or six-year-old child!
The point is, he even thinks these words make a lot of sense!!
God, isn't he crazy?
Huo Liyi pointed to Yuntian's nose, his fingers trembled for a long time, and finally he could only smile helplessly: "You are definitely Ah Ting's son! Only his seed is so powerful! I admit it! But I am your second brother, you have to call me a second uncle according to your generation." Come on, boy, call a second uncle to listen!"
Yun Tian raised his lips and sneered disdainfully: "I just have something to look for you." Now that you are taking over the company, do you know that in this short period of time, the company has reached the end of its rope?"
Huo Liyi's heart was empty, but his face was forced to calm down: "What a desperate end, don't talk nonsense in front of grandma! The company doesn't know how good it is now, our industrial park project in the south of the city, after completion, will become the country's largest electric vehicle production base; Tianjiao City in the north of the city will become the future fashion center of Jincheng; and we ......"
Yun Tian looked at him calmly, waiting for him to finish one by one, and then said lightly: "The industrial park project is very good, but the manufacturers who signed an agreement with Huo's before are terminating the contract with Huo's, don't you know......?
He was clearly organized, and listed the project dilemmas that Huo Liyi was proud of.
Huo Liyi looked at him dumbfounded, his face turned from white to blue, and then from blue to red, so embarrassed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into.
This kid is really Ah Ting's seed, it's amazing!
Not only Huo Liting, but also the old lady, Aunt Ding, and all the servants in the living room were all shocked by this five or six-year-old child.
When he said word by word, there seemed to be light on his body, like the moon hanging in the sky, cold and sharp.
"Good, very good! worthy of my good great-grandson!" Mrs. Huo smiled with satisfaction.
She fumbled for Yun Tian's soft little hand and patted it gently: "Good boy, then grandma will hand over the company to you." ”
Her gray eyes immediately turned to Huo Liyi and said, "Ah Yi, you take Yuntian to the company now, and let him take Ah Ting's position and preside over the overall situation." As for you, be his deputy. Whatever he needs, you have to try to meet it and give it your full support. ”
Huo Liyi had just recovered from the shock, and was splashed down by a basin of cold water: "No." Grandma, don't let him fool you. What if he says the truth? He's only five or six years old, what do you expect him to do?"
"I'm only five or six years old, but I'm better than you. ”
Yuntian raised his eyebrows and looked at him, and said unceremoniously: "You are thirty years old, what are you doing, you are the first to pick up girls." Grandma hasn't scolded you all these years, but now is the time when the company's survival is in danger, why don't you make some achievements and make up for it? ”
Huo Liting also said this!
Huo Liyi looked at Yuntian, as if looking at a copy of Huo Liting.
The deep, cold black eyes, the thin lips that spit out murderous words without seeing blood......
His brain was buzzing, and he swallowed his saliva with difficulty: "Dang, dang, I'll be your deputy!"
This family of three is really more ruthless than the other!
Yun Tian raised his little eyebrows clearly, turned his head to the old lady and said respectfully: "Grandma, then I will go directly to the company." ”
"Good. Mrs. Huo reluctantly touched Yuntian's hand: "Good boy, then it's hard for you to watch the company for Grandma." ”
Yun Tian withdrew his hand and solemnly bowed to the old lady: "Grandma don't worry!"
As he spoke, he turned and strode towards the door.
Huo Liyi, who was ignored the whole time, stomped his foot angrily, turned his head and followed: "Eh, you wait for me!"
Looking at the two backs of one big and one small walking out of the house, Aunt Ding's face was full of happy smiles: "Old lady, you tried your best to promote the decision of the third young and the third young grandmother back then, it was really right." ”
"This is their blessing, and it is also the creation of our Huo family!"
Mrs. Huo leaned back in her chair, and finally showed the most comfortable smile on her face these days: "You pick a few competent people, take good care of the little guy's diet and daily life, and don't let him be hungry and tired." In the end, it is the age of the child, and it is the time to grow the body. ”
"Understood, understood. Don't worry, old lady!"
Aunt Ding happily took the order and left.
......
Qingbai Country, Imperial Palace.
As soon as Hong Lie entered the palace, he found that the atmosphere was a little strange.
Whether it is a guard or a servant, they are all in a hurry.
Especially when they saw him, they all lowered their heads weakly, and even the voice of saluting and greeting was much quieter than usual.
Once you're done, leave immediately, as if you've done something wrong.
Hong Lie frowned, quickened his pace, and went straight to the queen's palace.
In the palace, King Bhumi and Queen Tita were sitting on the sofa with their hands clasped and waiting for news.
As soon as Hong Lie stepped into the palace gate, he said eagerly: "Queen Mother, Queen Mother, what's wrong?"
Queen Tida immediately stood up and took his hand: "Alye Alie, it's good for you to come back......! Hey!"
King Pumi took out the letter and handed it to Hong Lie: "See for yourself!"
Hong Lie was anxious and confused.
Along the way, it didn't look like there was any danger in the clouds, but looking at their expressions, they were full of solemnity.
He opened the letter suspiciously, and when he read the contents, his face immediately turned pale.
He looked at the king and queen in disbelief: "He's gone?
Queen Dida nodded guiltily.
King Pumi said lightly: "We have sent people to search the entire palace, but we have not found any trace of him, and he should have left." ”
No wonder those palace people are in a hurry! No wonder they are full of emptiness!
Hong Lie pinched the hand of the letter paper and unconsciously forced: "Queen Mother, when I handed her over to you, you promised me to take good care of him, how can you let him run out by himself?"
Queen Dida was worried and guilty, and her eyes turned red unconsciously: "I'm sorry, Alie, I really didn't expect ......"
"You can't blame your queen mother for this. King Bhumi interrupted.
He patted the queen on the shoulder soothingly, and said to Hong Lie: "You don't know how good that kid is. I've had so many children, and you're all not half as smart as him combined. If he really wants to go, who of us can stop him? I think he left this letter on purpose, just because he didn't want us to look for him with great fanfare!"
Hong Lie realized that he had lost his temper and hurriedly bowed down to Queen Tita and apologized: "I'm sorry, Queen Mother! You can take care of Yuntian for us, which is already to reduce the burden on us. ”
"Out of the way, out of the way, I'm his queen grandmother, and I'm happy to take care of him. Queen Dida sighed and said, "I just don't know where he went?"
Hong Lie shook his head: "No." If he wanted to find Xiao Nuan, he would not have offered to move to live with you, so I could free up my hands to find Xiao Nuan. ”
Looking back now, Hong Lie only felt that Yun Tian seemed to have calculated every step.
Everyone unknowingly falls into the little trap of the little one, including his self-righteous father.
"And where will he go?" said Queen Tida, wringing her hands, anxiously.
Hong Lie pondered for a moment: "Father, queen mother, you first arrange for your cronies to secretly search in the palace and in the country, and then I will send someone to check on the side of country Z to see if he has gone over there." ”
King Pumi frowned: "You and Xiao Nuan are here, what is he doing in country Z alone? I also had this suspicion just now, so I have asked people to check his entry and exit records, and nothing has been found." ”
Hong Lie shook his head helplessly: "Father, have you forgotten? As early as when he was three years old, you gave him a private jet as a gift. ”
King Bhumi patted his head: "Oh, how did I forget this?" Hurry up, you send someone to see if the plane is still there, and see if you can find the location of the plane's take-off and landing. ”
"Well, don't worry, I'll do it right away. ”
Hong Lie comforted the second elder a few more words, and then turned around and hurried out of the palace gate.
......
Qingbai Mountain, the night is deep.
Outside the window, two insect chirps occasionally sounded, making the night more and more silent.
Huo Liting lay on his back on the bamboo bed, his pale skin was thin and transparent, revealing a faint imprint of blood vessels.
Fortunately, his brows furrowed, and he slept most peacefully in days.
Xiao Nuan looked at it and exhaled slowly.
She leaned back in the bamboo chair and tried to squint for a while, but she couldn't sleep when she closed her eyes.
She sat up and pulled out her phone.
The weak signal displayed on the screen is difficult to dial, let alone open the web page of country Z over the wall.
Xiao Nuan sighed a little dejectedly.
Tuk Tuk –
There was a soft knock on the door.
Xiao Nuan cheered up, and saw Xiao Qi poking his head in from outside the door: "Sister Xiao, can I come in?"
"Of course. ”
Xiao Nuan got up to greet her with a smile, and when she saw the thing in Xiao Qi's hand, she was stunned: "This is?"
"Hot goat's milk. I guess you probably can't sleep and deliberately give you a hot one. Xiao Qi smiled sweetly and put the milk on the table next to him: "It's a little hot, cool down first." ”
"Thank you!" Xiao Nuan looked at the snow-white goat milk curiously: "Is it the wild goat in this mountain?"
Xiaoqi shook his head: "No, it's a domestic sheep." She's the only ewe on the mountain, and she climbed up from the bottom of the mountain with me!"
The only ewe, then this goat's milk should be extremely precious.
Xiao Nuan thanked again: "Thank you, Xiaoqi." ”
"You're welcome. This is our fate, it is its honor. Xiao Qiwaner: "Sister Xiao, I can't sleep anyway, let's go out for a walk?"
Xiao Nuan looked at the man who was still sleeping peacefully on the bed, and nodded: "Okay!"
The quiet pastoral courtyard, the breeze says the fresh aroma of grass and trees.
Xiao Nuan looked at the messy medicine garden in the distance, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a wry smile.
Although these medicinal materials are not the best, they are really rare in the Qingbai Country, which is really a pity.
Xiao Qi saw her unhappiness and comforted softly: "Sister Xiao, it's okay." In the future, you will definitely make this place more beautiful and grow them better. ”
Xiao Nuan smiled gently: "Well, thank you! Don't worry, I don't regret it at all, I just feel a pity." ”
"It's a pity that they can let grandpa untie the knot and make a new move, and he can be regarded as a well-deserved death. Besides, it is also their sacrifice that can prove the deep relationship between you and Mr. Huo before. Sister Xiao, I really admire you! I think you are very brave and loyal to your feelings. ”
Xiao Nuan's cheeks were hot, but fortunately, it was dark enough that no one could see it.
She sneered: "How can you say so exaggerated, I really have nothing to do with him." ”
"Cut, I don't believe it!" Xiao Qi emphasized: "I should not only be able to see it, everyone can see it!"
She didn't wait for Xiao Nuan to refute, so she continued: "Sister Xiao, I'm actually curious. Why does everyone say that you are the third prince and concubine of Qingbai Kingdom, and those people of Country Z say that you are Mr. Huo's wife? Sister Xiao, is polyandry also popular in your country Z?"
"Huh?" Xiao Nuan was stunned, and hurriedly waved his hand to deny: "No, no, there is no polyandry in our country Z." ”
Xiao Qi looked at her, her bright eyes were full of curiosity: "Then what is your relationship?"
What relationship?
When she was weak, she had to take shelter with Hong Lie's wings to protect herself and protect Yuntian.
originally thought that he should be like this for the rest of his life, and he had repaid his life-saving grace.
But who knew that when I met Huo Liting again after going around and around, everything suddenly got out of control......
Xiao Nuan sighed.
Inevitably, the outside world was too suspicious of Hong Lie and the royal family, so she only said lightly: "This matter is too complicated, and it can't be explained clearly for a while, which makes you laugh." ”
"See you laughing?" Xiao Qi's eyes widened: "Why are you laughing? Sister Xiao, it's too late for me to envy you! What I admire most is a brave and sincere person like you, who dares to act." As a new youth of Qingbai Country, I also hope to be like you, to be a person who is fearless of rumors and dares to confront the world. ”
"Huh?" Xiao Nuan was a little confused.
What does her mess have to do with secular confrontation?
Seeing her doubts, Xiao Qi explained with a smile: "Sister Xiao, in the history of our Qingbai Kingdom, in fact, it has always been the default freedom of marriage before, and this freedom is that a man can marry more wives. But then a king married only one queen, and the ministers advised the king to fill the harem and spread the leaves. In a fit of rage, the king abolished this freedom.
But this is the solidified idea that Qingbai has inherited for many years, and the opinions of the people are very big, and it can be said that the people's grievances are boiling. The king always adhered to his original intention and insisted on being a couple for the rest of his life. The ministers had no choice, and in the end they forced the king to abdicate early. Later, they did not dare to provoke the people, and acquiesced to the freedom of marriage, as long as both parties were voluntary, they could marry as many as they wanted.
But over the years, there have been many polygamous green and white people. But there are not many who can really do polyandry. Whether it is a dignitary or a rich businessman or a poor peasant, they are basically still inheriting those thousands of years old ideas. ”
When Xiao Qi said this, his tone revealed anger: "Many women want to resist, but the final result is that they fail. They can't fight the traditional thinking, and they can't fight the current status quo of the Qingbai country. Sister Xiao, do you know? The current ratio of men to women in our Qingbai Kingdom is 1:3. Isn't it sad that we have so many women and still can't change our fate?"
Xiao Nuan didn't speak.
Everyone has their own suffering!
The traditional feudal ideology is engraved in the bones, and it takes great endurance to get rid of it.
Just like when she herself was back then, didn't she also walk into the Huo family's villa under the guise of an arranged marriage and a bride?
Seeing that she didn't speak, Xiao Qi raised the corners of her mouth and laughed again: "So, Sister Xiao, even if you really have two husbands at the same time, you won't be laughed at in our Qingbai Country, you will only be envied, or the deep kind!"
Xiao Nuan smiled lightly, and said lightly: "I didn't expect that there was such a rich period in the history of Qingbai Kingdom, and the relationship between the king and the queen should be very good, right?"
Xiao Qi nodded: "Of course." But no matter how good they are, they are not as good as Sister Xiao. ”
She blinked ambiguously: "Sister Xiao, don't you really consider considering polyandry on our side?"
Xiao Nuan hurriedly shook his head and sneered: "Absolutely don't think about it! I don't want to marry any of them, and if I marry a few more, I won't be tired to death." ”
"How so?"
Xiao Qi frowned in surprise: "It's good to marry a few more, you can leave everything to them." Let them grow medicine, cook, earn money, and do anything for you. Well, you don't have to do anything every day, just wait for them to pet you. ”
Wow, it's not too good on a day like that!
Xiao Qi thought about it, and couldn't help but be full of excitement on his face, and his eyes were full of little stars in anticipation.
Xiao Nuan looked at her intoxicated appearance and couldn't help laughing: "If I were as young as you, maybe I would think like you." But when you're my age, you probably won't think so. There are so many things in life that are more interesting than getting married. ”
Xiao Qi put away his star eyes and thought for a while: "Well, it seems to be the same! Just like Sister Xiao, you are like now, I also feel so envious! You are beautiful, free and independent, can cure diseases and save people, and know how to grow herbs, and you are still the core of the whole team." ”
She paused, then added, "Oh yes, you even cook so deliciously, you're the perfect goddess in my mind." Sister Xiao, do you know? We have been taught since childhood that we should revolve around men, and we must respect men in everything. When I was in college, male classmates could have several girlfriends at the same time, and those girlfriends still knew each other and could be friends, how embarrassing do you say? I was just tired of those awkward atmospheres, so I dropped out of school and hid in the mountains to accompany my grandfather. ”
