Chapter 11: The Return
Huo Lingxi sighed softly, "Old lady, although Lingxi has a poor memory, but the old lady's birthday, Lingxi dare not forget!" ”
After the words fell, Huo Lingxi took out a book from his arms and handed it over respectfully.
The old lady took the book and looked at it, and when she saw the title of the book, she was immediately surprised, "It's actually a thousand karma classics, how did you get this child?" ”
Hearing Mrs. Huo's words, Huo Lingxi didn't have time to speak, Huo Huaqing said slowly: "This is the holy treasure of Buddhist scriptures passed down from generation to generation in Jiyun Nunnery, I heard that a few days ago, the Queen Mother sent someone to ask for it, but was too politely rejected by Master Jinghui, saying that the Buddhist scriptures are in the people, and the Buddhist scriptures are scattered, and the Queen Mother can only give up, and also praise Master Jinghui for being too principled, but, fifth sister, how did you get this Buddhist scripture?" ”
"Could it be stolen? That's unacceptable! Huo Qiying opened her mouth for fear that the world would not be chaotic.
Old Madam Huo's face turned pale, and her tone was a little more stern, "Lingxi, what's the matter?" ”
The Buddhist scriptures that the Queen Mother couldn't ask for are now in her own hands, and if the Queen Mother knows about them, then she can pay them back.
"Grandmother, please look carefully at the handwriting on it, this is Lingxi's handwriting!"
When Huo Lingxi said a word, Huo Qiying's face changed, in disbelief and surprise.
How did she copy a whole Buddhist scripture?
Hearing this, Yue Jinyan couldn't help but raise his eyes, and carefully glanced at Huo Lingxi, with a little more appreciation in his eyes.
When Mrs. Huo heard this, she opened it and read two pages, sure enough, the handwriting looked immature, and the ink was also new, her face was surprised, and at the end, she sighed and said with a smile, "Lingxi really has a heart, I'm tired of traveling these days, go back and rest, your mother should have prepared your room!" ”
"Thank you grandmother for being considerate!"
After Huo Lingxi finished speaking, he kowtowed to Mrs. Huo before saying goodbye to everyone one by one.
"This kid is really remorseful this time, you talk in the future, don't go too far!" Mrs. Huo touched the Buddhist scripture twice, and she seemed to like it very much.
This heart alone is rare!
When everyone saw that the old lady was tired, they didn't dare to stay longer, and left one after another.
Huo Lingxi was led by Forsythia and returned to his residence.
I have to say that this Huo Guogong Mansion is indeed decorated elegantly, quite in the style of literati and inkmen.
Born in a family of military generals, the Zuo family does not pay much attention to display and furnishings, even if they have great achievements, they never use their minds on these fictitious things.
Huo Lingxi thought about this, and couldn't help but feel a little sad, it was his refusal to listen to his father's dissuasion, which harmed the Zuo family, which was full of loyal people.
Forsythia saw that her face was not very good-looking, so she hurriedly said: "In front of the old lady just now, the young lady behaved really well, and our life can be better in the future!" ”
Huo Lingxi raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this, she guessed that these five young ladies were not very favored in this huge Huo family, otherwise they would definitely not be sent to the nunnery, and they were repeatedly framed by treacherous villains such as Yi and Shitai.
Now listening to Forsythia's meaning, these five young ladies have reached the point where the whole family can't see her well, and in the meeting just now, Huo Huaqing secretly stumbled, Huo Chengying embarrassed her openly, and no one was willing to say a word for her.
Huo Lingxi suddenly smiled brightly, she was born in a family of military generals in her previous life, so she naturally couldn't get in touch with all kinds of battles in the backyard of this big mansion, but these small methods, compared to the vicious Dugu City, are simply a big deal.
She thought of her tragic death Lin'er, clenched her fists, no matter what, she would never admit defeat, she would definitely return the suffering of the year a thousand times more!
Forsythia saw that her face was sometimes gloomy, sometimes smiling, and she couldn't figure out what her young lady was thinking, she just hoped that she wouldn't offend people in a high-flying manner.
"Here we are, miss."
Forsythia's voice interrupted Huo Lingxi's chaotic train of thought.
An extremely ordinary house in front of me, displayed and furnished, compared to the boudoirs of the young ladies I saw on the road, it was a world of difference, as soon as the door was opened, a large cloud of dust was brought up, and the whole dilapidated room was suddenly dusty.
"Ahem, ahem." Huo Lingxi and Forsythia were choked and coughed all the time.
This unpopular fifth lady is really worthy of her reputation, presumably no one thinks that she can come back from the nunnery, so she simply sealed this matter, and saved a lot of cleaning effort.
"Miss, I'll go fetch water and clean up this place." With that, Forsythia hurried out.
She was not a person accustomed to the life of a young lady, and she frowned at the messy room, got up and got a broom to clean up the dust.
At this time, a neatly dressed woman came over at some point and said in a fake manner: "Fifth Miss is delicate, how can she do the errands that these subordinates do." ”
Huo Lingxi ignored her at all, this woman thought that she would refute herself loudly as before, and at that time, she could go to Madame to sue her and see how these five young ladies looked at her.
Now these five young ladies seem to have changed as if they have changed into a different person, not only ignoring her provocations, but also starting to clean up the house by themselves.
A sarcastic smile appeared on her face, and she continued: "Oh, the young lady of the Huo family is doing these things here, I'm afraid that people will die of laughter if they spread it." ”
Huo Lingxi was only a fly flying in her ear, she had just recovered a little bit in front of the old lady and a kind of brother today, there was no need to worry about this kind of small fish and shrimp.
"Cut, these five young ladies are not in the nunnery, and they have become fools." When the woman saw that she was not going to succeed, she dropped a word and went away angrily.
"You're a fool, it's annoying." Forsythia came back from fetching water and saw the woman chattering away.
"Miss, are you alright?" Forsythia was afraid that she would be angry with her newly recovered body, so she cautiously approached and asked.
"I'm fine." Huo Lingxi looked indifferent, if she couldn't stand this little grievance, what would she take revenge in the future?
"That's good, that's good." Forsythia breathed a sigh of relief, she only hoped that the young lady could always be like this, restrain her good temperament, and at least marry a rich and noble family, so that she would not suffer hardships in the future.
"Miss, if you sit and rest, I'll do these things." Forsythia was afraid that she would be unwell, so she said hurriedly.
"Are you the only maid in our courtyard?" Of course, Huo Lingxi doesn't need to rest, in the past, the men's battlefield has been to I don't know how many times, cleaning, she naturally won't feel condescending.
"Yes, miss, before you were sent to the nunnery, Madame removed all the envoys in order to punish you." Forsythia said with some embarrassment.
In fact, even if they are industrious, they will not be courteous to their unfavored concubine, and they will praise the high and step on the low, which is a rule that does not need to be said in the backyard of the big mansion.
