Huo Lingxi said that she had been sick for half a month, and because she was afraid of infection, the old lady also exempted her from asking for peace every day, so as not to spread the disease.

Naturally, the doctor was not invited, and Zhao Yunzhi wished that Huo Lingxi would die of illness in the house.

Huo Lingxi is leisurely, these days, there is no broken mouth to bother people, and there is no banquet to attend, naturally calm, basking in the sun all day long, reading poetry and books, just like a fairy.

Huo Chengying couldn't get any benefits in the past few days, so she slowly stopped.

Huo Lingxi smiled secretly, he said that he couldn't get sick in the past few days, in order to avoid the limelight.

If she quarrels with the sisters in the house several times in a row, even if she takes advantage of it every time, I am afraid that she will leave others with a restless thought.

Come to think of it, I sincerely replied, and the performance of changing my mind will disappear under the provocation of people with intentions.

In that case, why bother to stand up and be knocked out of your plan?

It's just that Huo Lingxi stretched his waist, these five young ladies really didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, and only left a book of poems on the desk, Huo Lingxi had already been tired of reading in the past few days.

I can't remember how many times I read a new book, and the pages were polished.

"Forsythia?" Huo Lingxi looked at the maid who was cleaning up the closet.

"Miss, what do you command?" My own lady has been getting more and more diligent recently, and she has done a lot of work by herself on weekdays, and only occasionally calls herself back.

"Are there any other books hidden in this yard?" Huo Lingxi raised his eyes to look at the forsythia standing beside him.

"Miss Hui, this one is really gone." Forsythia was a little timidly.

She didn't want to say that there were a lot of books, all of which were specially selected by the master for the ladies and sons of each room.

But my own lady used to have the most headache to read, and when she had to do her homework, she would shout to the heavens and the earth.

In the end, he pretended to overturn the charcoal brazier and burned all the books.

It was this incident that made Master Huo, who was originally guilty about Huo Lingxi, completely lose hope, and was no longer willing to discipline her.

"Forsythia, do you know where to find these books?" Huo Lingxi looked at Forsythia's expression, and thought that it was the previous master of this body who caused the incident.

"These books are available to the young ladies in each room, but" Forsythia stopped talking and looked at his own young lady hesitantly.

Huo Lingxi knew that he was not very familiar with that brother and sister, and if he opened his mouth to borrow it, he didn't know which one he wanted to borrow.

She thought about it carefully, Huo Chengying is a master who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, but with her temperament, she can't use it, and she will never cheapen herself.

The fourth sister, Huo Yuchen, is cowardly and timid, and she must not be able to oppose Mrs. Huo for her own sake.

Although Huo Huaqing is not a good person, for the sake of his good reputation for gentleness and kindness, he must not refuse.

In this way, Huo Lingxi made up his mind and instructed Forsythia to let out a rumor, saying that he had recovered from his illness and would start to greet the old lady tomorrow.

As for the mountain rain coming, Huo Lingxi has always believed that he will not do bad things, and in the past thirty years, it is not a waste, how can he be afraid of these carving insect skills.

The next day, Huo Lingxi got up early in the morning.

She hadn't gone to greet the old lady for a few days, and though the old woman might not want to see her, it was a good courtesy!

Huo Lingxi was dressed in a plain cloth robe, slightly powdered, and his cheeks were slightly pale without rouge, but he looked weak and pitiful.

If you want to be like it, you must do it like that.

When the old lady saw her, although she didn't like it, she also asked a few questions, all of which were about how she was doing.

Huo Lingxi replied one by one, and the whole person seemed gentle and polite, quite like a daughter.

The old lady also nodded, she didn't want to see anything ugly about the Huo family. Now these grandchildren are all sensible, and she can relax and spend her old age in peace.

Huo Lingxi saw that the old lady was in a good mood, and hurriedly sent the scriptures he copied a few days ago.

"Lingxi is not talented, and it is rare to do something for the old lady when she is sick, so she copies the scriptures every day, praying that the old lady will be strong and live a long life." Huo Lingxi lowered her head, looking like a shy daughter.

Mrs. Huo flipped through the scriptures, but she also felt satisfied, and praised it rarely, "You have this heart, it's rare." ”

As she spoke, Mrs. Huo made a color to the next person, and the maid standing beside her took a golden hairpin and a few ingots of silver.

Old Madam Huo kindly touched the Buddhist beads in her hand and rewarded those things.

Huo Lingxi's face was full of panic, and he excused himself: "This, this, old lady, Lingxi doesn't dare to accept it." ”

Gold and silver, now Huo Lingxi is naturally needed, on the way back to the city, he bet all his belongings on a little beggar with an extraordinary status, and now he is in short supply.

It's just that if Mrs. Huo leaves an impression that she will only be rewarded because of this incident, wouldn't the gains outweigh the losses?

Then Huo Lingxi knelt down again, wiped his tears and said to the old lady who was sitting high: "Lingxi was unfilial in the past and did too many wrong things, but now I just want to ask the old lady and my father and mother to be healthy, so that Lingxi has a chance to make up for his mistakes." ”

When Mrs. Huo heard this, she was also very emotional, and forced these belongings into Huo Lingxi's hands, and took off a jade bracelet in her hand, and said: "You kid is also confused, since you have learned well, the family, how can I blame you." ”

Huo Lingxi didn't dare to refuse, sat down obediently, and listened to the old lady's admonition.

About half an hour later, Huo Huaqing also moved the lotus step lightly and came slowly.

Seeing Huo Lingxi, who was already sitting on the side and talking with the old lady, he was also stunned.

The ladies have always asked for peace, they are all the first Huo Huaqing, very few people are earlier, and they have been robbed recently, and Huo Huaqing can't help but be stunned.

When the old lady saw her arrival, she was in a rare mood, so she asked them to sit and drink tea together.

"Sister Huaqing, Lingxi has something to ask for, I don't know if I can talk about it." Huo Lingxi seemed to hesitate for a long time, and then said with some embarrassment.

"If my sister has something, just say it directly." Huo Huaqing naturally did not refuse, but gave birth to a little better.

"My sister heard that there are many books in my sister's study, and my sister has been reading less books in the past recently, and I want to borrow a few books from my sister." Huo Lingxi's face was distressed, and when she saw it, she could feel that she was deeply ashamed of the past.

"What kind words did my sister say, that's natural, Ziyu, go get a few books and send them to Sister Lingxi."

Huo Lingxi smiled secretly, and the old lady was also pleased.

Now she behaves well-behaved and weak in front of the old lady, desperately begging her old man, naturally she also wants to tell the people in this mansion that she is not so weak and deceitful in this Huo family.
