Huo Yuan didn't like Quan Meihuangui and didn't like it, but he wouldn't slander her behind her back, so he looked at his grandmother's face that changed color in an instant, "Grandmother, what are you talking about?" You don't have to doubt her that she didn't say anything unpleasant in front of me, as a stepmother, she always remembered her duty. It's just that she is not my mother after all, and my relatives should not let her handle it. ”

Huo Zhou's face softened a little when he heard his grandson's explanation, "How can you worry about marriage as a big man?" This has to be done by the female dependents, if the grandmother is strong, where can she be used? These grandmothers have thought about it, and she is the most suitable person to come into contact with the iceman or something. Seeing that her grandson was still frowning, she preemptively said: "Look at the children of the Ye family, now they have given birth to two boys, what about you, you haven't even seen the shadow of your wife, tell me yourself, can I be a grandmother if I don't worry about you?" It's better to count on your father, than to count on a piece of tofu......"

Here it is again, Ye Xuyao again.

Huo Yuan actually doesn't like people comparing him with himself, just because they are the same age and have the same family background, so they are always compared like this.

He looked slightly displeased, "Grandmother, this matter will be done as I say, I want to get married when I come back this time, and I will do my duty as a descendant of the Huo family no matter what, but I will find this wife candidate, and it is better for grandmother to take care of her old age." ”

"Why are you so hard to communicate, kid? Her Quan family married into our Huo family is the wife of the Huo family, how about doing something for you? Why do you have to be so clear with her? It's a brain-wrenching. Huo Zhou tried to convince his grandson again.

No matter what she thought, she felt that her grandson's idea was inappropriate.

Huo Yuan also has a lot of headaches for his grandmother's stubbornness, he doesn't like Quan Meihuan to meddle in his marriage, he has his own reasons, since he doesn't like such a stepmother, how can he like the daughter-in-law she fancies? When the time comes, they barely become relatives but become a pair of resentful couples, which is not a good thing for other girls, and it may be better to put an end to this from the beginning.

He also understands his grandmother's thoughts, but he doesn't want to marry a high-ranking girl now, as long as the woman can be a family, he is also willing.

Just like Ye Xuyao married Lin Long, as long as his wife is good enough, why can't he become a virtuous helper? In this regard, he completely recognized Ye Xuyao's choice, even if he also disliked the women of the Lin family.

"Grandmother, this is wishful thinking on your part, just like you did with Xiangyu, to see what Xiangyu will eventually look like? Isn't it enough to make such a big disaster and lose all the titles that our ancestors exchanged for their lives? ”

As soon as Huo Xiangyu was mentioned, Huo Zhou's expression withered, even if she didn't want to recall, but her grandson was right, Xiangyu became like that, she was responsible.

Seeing his grandmother's self-reproachful appearance, Huo Yuan also softened, "Grandmother, it's all grandchildren's bad, mention the things that make you sad, Xiangyu's things are over, we can only look forward, let it pass in the past, don't take it to heart." ”

Even with the comfort of her grandson, Huo Zhou's was still in a difficult mood, she could be calm in the face of her son, but in the face of her grandson, she wanted to beat her chest when she thought of losing her grandson's title, and regretted it for several days.

Reluctantly mentioning the spirit www.biquge.info of the pen qu gee, she pointed to the picture album on the table of the Eight Immortals, "That's the picture album of the girls I sent to the iceman that your stepmother found, do you like it?" ”

In fact, the woman in this album, she can't look down on any of them, and her family background is too low, so she has a seizure of Quan Meihuan and Iceman.

But the iceman responded with a sneer, "Old lady, do you still think this is the former uncle's mansion?" At that time, you were left to choose the girls in the whole capital, but you don't know what kind of environment you are in now? Even if General Huo has an official position, which of the daughters of a high-ranking family is not delicate and expensive, and she wants to marry the right person? Look at your family, where can you still be worthy of those high-ranking girls? In my opinion, lower the standard and marry someone who is about the same. He waved his handkerchief as he spoke.

The disdain and ridicule in the eyes of the iceman deeply pierced Huo Zhou's heart, she was also a girl from a wealthy family, but she was discriminated against by such a ninth-rate woman, the discomfort in her heart can be imagined, but she still can't have a seizure, if she drives this person away and offends the iceman in the city, what should her grandson's marriage do?

Since ancient times, marriage has been the order of parents, and the words of matchmakers have never been exceptional.

So she forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart and endured the shame of the iceman.

Until now, when she thinks about it, her anger is not smooth.

Huo Yuan didn't know about this episode, and it was impossible for Huo Zhou to mention it in front of him, because he was afraid that his grandson would show the iceman with a face when the time came, so it would be difficult for no one to be a matchmaker for him.

"Don't worry, grandmother, I'll take a closer look when I look back." Huo Yuan said, whether he looked at it or not, he didn't want to be disobedient and make Huo Zhou's family sad.

Sure enough, a smile appeared on Huo Zhou's face, "That's good, as long as the family affairs are decided, and there is no war at the border pass, it is also feasible to ask the saint for a will to stay in Beijing and get married, and next year my grandmother will be able to hold my great-grandson, just thinking about it, my grandmother's heart is happy." ”

The grandfather and grandson discussed this topic, Huo Yuan got up and left, and before leaving, he naturally had to tell the maid Xiaoxiang to wait for the old lady, and then turned around and went back to the wing room where he lived, followed by Han Guang, who hugged a lot of portraits.

As soon as he returned to the room, he instructed Han Guang to throw the portrait aside, this room was so small that it was not the same as the former Bofu, and he could only settle for it, anyway, he had suffered all the hardships of marching and fighting, and he didn't care about the discomfort in front of him.

Hanguang muttered and complained, of course, he didn't dare to accuse Quan Meihuan casually, although the master often ignored Quan Meihuan, but he didn't like others to talk about right and wrong behind his back. "Master, you should promise what the old lady wants to see."

Huo Yuan lay on the bed and put his hands behind his head, "Don't worry, I won't delay when I see it later, I'm tired when I go back to Beijing this time, so you can go down and rest first." ”

Hanguang's lips twitched for a moment or two, and finally withdrew without saying anything.

Huo Yuan closed his eyes, unexpectedly thinking of the fiery figure and her flamboyant temperament, and then laughed, what does he want a little girl to do? Then put aside this shadow and began to think about some serious things, this trip back to Beijing he wanted to strive to stay in Beijing, after all, his family is in Beijing, if he can open a mansion in Beijing, he can also take care of his family more, so as not to let them be ridiculed because of the great changes in the court.

Even if he didn't hear the ridicule of others with his own ears, he would not be optimistic that such a thing would not happen, and there were people with ugly human nature everywhere, even more so in the capital.

Lin Qi left Huo Yuan behind, came out of the bathroom and was sitting on the dresser to apply sesame oil to her hair, and then there was a series of procedures for protecting her husband, she had loved this since she was a child, and now that she is doing this business at home, she naturally has to use the best of it.

Xiyu is combing her hair straight.

At this time, Lin Lushi hurriedly came in, "Sister Qi, are you doing something to your brother today?" ”

Lin Qi didn't even look back, he calculated the time in his heart, it seemed that Li Xingui had been rescued, so he replied coldly, "So what?" This is what he deserves, I am still light, otherwise one day I will be ruthless, but it will be more than that. ”

"Sister Qi, how can you do this? Your brother is also your cousin, how can you let me explain to the Li family like this? Do you know how much he suffered in the pit? You ......" Lin Lushi was still at her mother's house at that time, and when she saw Li Xingui's little wolf coming back to report the news, and then they rushed to find Li Xingui, her heart was all about it.

The mother's sister-in-law scolded her while crying, and even scolded Lin Qi for not thinking about family affection or something, and the country woman's scolding was so ugly, but she was at a loss, so she could only scold Li Zhou's dryly, and she didn't dare to reply half a sentence, for fear that Lin Qi would kill someone.

Her mother didn't say a word, but her eyes were so cold that she felt deeply sorry for her mother's family at that time.

Later, he finally found Li Xingui with a frightened face in the dense forest with a torch, and it took a lot of effort to pull the person up, and he was quietly relieved to see that Li Xingui was just in low spirits and had no other skin injuries.

Then on the way back to the city, I heard Li Xingui tell about the process of falling into the pit, and her mother's family scolded her again, saying that the girls of the Lin family are all scourges, in front of the bitter master, how can she argue for Lin Qi? Fortunately, it was the mother who came forward to stop it, so they didn't come to Lin Mansion to ask Lin Qi for justice.

"Cousin?" Lin Qi burst out laughing and looked up at Lin Lu mockingly, "What kind of cousin is she?" Erniang said. I recognize you as a second mother, but it doesn't mean that I recognize their family as relatives, these are two different things. ”

She Lin Qi just loves and hates clearly, and this hateful person can't like it, and when she saw Lin Lu's appearance of coming back to find her bad luck after listening to Li Xingui's words, she suddenly became angry for no reason, and as soon as this anger rose, her words rushed up.

Lin Lu was choked by Lin Qi like this, and suddenly couldn't find the words to refute it, and as soon as he felt aggrieved, his expression was a little dizzy and wanted to cry. "I know what I do, you have a problem with me now, I have promised your sister, this will send them back to the country, why do you bother to find his bad luck?"

When Lin Qi heard this, he immediately threw the sesame oil bottle in his hand to the ground, and the broken bottle leaked sesame oil, and the whole room was fragrant.

Xiyu on the side couldn't see it, and hurriedly said: "Mrs. misunderstood, which is our girl's bad luck to find that Li Jialang?" It was he who was wrapped up in a dead face, and wanted to do bad things to our girl, and our girl taught him a lesson. If the girl really wanted his life, how could she just dig a deep pit to trick him? I had already asked Aunt Xin to slaughter him......"

Lin Lu's expression changed greatly, and he hurriedly stepped forward to stare at Xiyu and said, "What did you say?" What is wrong? Tell me about this. ”

Xiyu glanced at Lin Qi on the side, and saw that the girl didn't stop her, so she added fuel to Lin Lu's story, of course, Li Xingui's intention to spoil Lin Qi's actions, the sentence "Sister Qi, you will fulfill your brother", learned vividly.

Lin Lu's face changed and changed, she never expected that this maiden nephew would be so obscene, and she also thought that she would mistreat Lin Qi in the dense forest outside the city, if she really let him succeed, she would be unable to escape the crime even if she died, and she had no face to see her ancestor Lin Ze under Jiuquan.

Lin Qi sneered: "Erniang, now that you understand, I don't need to bother to say anything more about this right and wrong, this Li family's character is high, I believe you also know it at the moment, how can you keep them in Beijing with such a family?" In my opinion, after they return to their hometowns, they don't need to give anything except a few acres of fertile land for them to cultivate, so as to save them from being even lazier, and only thinking of opportunism or using their brains to get things that do not belong to them. ”

Lin Lushi said with a look of shame and despair: "Sister Qi, it was Erniang who listened to other people's words and blamed you wrongly, it is not too much for such a person to beat him badly, Erniang Ming'er went to give you this breath." ”

She gritted her teeth when she said this, hating her mother's family's incompetence, and hating their idea of beating her family everywhere, and becoming more and more vicious every time, how could she tolerate it?

She actually doesn't have any hatred for Mrs. Li, after all, she has to make a living in the land of fireworks at a young age, and the hardships are not enough to be humane to outsiders. It's just that she is kind by nature, and she always remembers that kindness, and when she sees her, she regrets it, so she presses that hatred in the depths of her heart.

"That's a good dare, I wanted to beat him up for a long time, I've never seen such a shameless man." Lin Qi said hatefully, "He thought I was a bully, so he even hit my idea." ”

Lin Lushi turned around and hugged Lin Qi tightly, "Sister Qi, it's all Erniang's bad, lead such a Zhongshan wolf to your home, if it weren't for me, how would you be entangled by him?" Fortunately, you are clever, otherwise Erniang really can't imagine the consequences......"

At this point, she was already choked up, because she couldn't stand this young girl.

Lin Qi heard Lin Lu's confessional cry, thinking about the love he had been with for so many years, and he didn't have a hard heart in the end, so he reached out and patted Lin Lu's back, "Okay, Erniang, I don't have his way again, why are you crying?" If I really suffer his great loss, it will never be too late for you to cry......"

"Bah, baba, children's words, children's words......" Lin Lushi muttered busily, and then said with a serious face: "You can't say such things, the reputation of the girl's family is more important than anything else, you are about to get married, and you will definitely be able to find a good marriage like your sister in the future." ”

Lin Qi pursed her lips when she heard this, it was a marriage again, in fact, she was uncomfortable when she heard these two words now, she knew her own temperament, especially now that she had made a lot of money by taking care of the Jade Skin Workshop, she didn't want to wronged herself to be that little Fuyi, she thought that she was afraid that she was not lucky enough to have such a reasonable mother-in-law as Ye Zhong's eldest sister.

"Erniang, are you in such a hurry to kick me out?"

Hearing her coquettish voice, Lin Lu was originally afraid that she would be alienated from her, but now that he saw her as always, this worry was thrown out of the clouds again, "What are you talking nonsense about now?" I am also reluctant to marry you, but when the girl's family is older, she will marry, otherwise she will stay and stay as an enemy. She pushed Lin Qi's sideburns behind her ears, "Erniang is looking forward to your sisters and brothers getting ahead, no matter how tired and hard it is, it's worth it." ”

When Lin Qi heard this, he felt that her second mother was still back, so she no longer had a relationship with her, and she spoke much more affectionately than some time ago, and she was happy that Lin Lu had a smile on her face again.

As soon as Lin Lu's left, she put on a thin cloak and went to Xie Yuan's courtyard.

As soon as she entered the wing, she pressed down the book Xie Yu'an was reading, and said with a smile: "I reconciled with Erniang." ”

When Xie Yu'an originally came to teach Lin Qi, he had a good impression of this little girl, but now looking at her smiling eyebrows, just like the little daughter next door, he didn't care about her squashing her book, "It seems that your second mother has figured it out, this is a good thing, the so-called relatives are afraid that Ming'er will be kicked out of the capital." ”

"They'd better leave early." Lin Qi sat on the chair opposite Xie Yu'an, originally sitting elegantly, and then thinking that Xie Yu'an was his teacher, he adjusted his sitting posture again.

Xie Yu'an shook his head and smiled, "I'm afraid your temperament is difficult to change, and your sister will have a headache in the future." ”

She really didn't have the ability to make Lin Qi look different, so she was destined to go against Lin Long's instructions.

"My sister just loves to worry about it, don't be like her." Lin Qi curled the end of her hair as if she was dissatisfied, but in fact, her expression was still very much appreciated by her sister's care for her.

"Madame Hou is just worried about you." Xie Yu'an personally made her a bowl of tea and handed it to her.

"My sister was born to work hard, but thanks to her, otherwise I wouldn't have the life I have now." Lin Qi is not ungrateful for gratitude, if she doesn't have a sister, she is afraid that she will still make money in Suzhou City, and she can take care of it for a long time, and gradually she will be infected with vulgarity, marry a mediocre wife, and become a market woman who is not ordinary.

It is estimated that she was inferior to the Li family at that time, what can't she do according to her temperament?

It can only be said that what has made Lin Qi today is also the gradually broadening of her horizons, the world she sees is no longer the Sifang Sky in the Boudoir, but the real sea and sky, but she is a daughter, and in the end she can only integrate into the small Sifang Tian.

As Lin Qi said, Lin Long was born with hard work.

When Fu Nian and Ye Man set up a banquet to entertain their husband and wife, she carefully watched the actions of the opposite couple, trying to find out the clues.

"Sister-in-law, I toast you." Fu Nian raised his wine glass and said with a smile, "I think when you first met, you were half angry with Ziyang, I still think about this thing is interesting, and it is really a thousand miles of marriage." ”

As soon as she mentioned the situation of their first encounter, Lin Long's cheeks turned red, at that time, she really didn't eat at all, she had to let Ye Xuyao just do it, so she also raised her wine glass and signaled to Fu Nian, "Those things can't be mentioned again." Glancing at Ye Man'an, who was sitting quietly on the side, "I never expected that you could become husband and wife with our third aunt and grandmother, this world is really surprising everywhere." Then he threw his head back and drained the wine.

"Sister-in-law is refreshing, okay, I'm not a mother-in-law." Fu Nian also drained the contents of the glass, and then lit up the wine glass.

Ye Xuyao gave his wife a chopstick dish and didn't let her drink more wine, this thing has enough stamina, and he can't bear to let her suffer.

"Ziyang really loves his wife, I envy it when I see it." Fu Nian made a joke about their husband and wife.

Lin Long happily ate a chopstick dish, glanced at Ye Man'an, and said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "The third aunt also gave our third aunt a chopstick dish to show his affection, how about it?" ”

Fu Nian's smile was slightly suffocated, and his eyes narrowed slightly, in front of his mother's family, it was impossible for him to shake his face to Ye Man'an, so he gave it to Ye Man'an, who was quiet next to him.

Ye Man'an was a little flattered, "Enough, husband." ”

Lin Long and her husband glanced at each other, in fact, they could see many things from this move, Fu Nian didn't like Ye Man'an. Especially Lin Long also noticed that there were eggs in the dishes that Fu Nian coerced, in fact, Ye Man'an couldn't eat eggs, and when she ate them, she would have red spots all over her body and diarrhea, because she was the head of the house, she had to know some small taboos in the family members.

Now Fu Nian's move just exposes the discordant side of their husband and wife, otherwise how would he not know about his wife's little problem? How much this neglects her existence.

Ye Xuyao saw his wife's expression gradually solemn, and shook his head at her secretly, Fu Nian was his good brother after all, and he would say something to him in private.

Lin Long forced her mind to hold back at this time, her husband's concerns were right, in case she recklessly pierced this layer of window paper, then turning back would definitely lead to the discord between Fu Nian and Ye Man'an, so she also took a bite of food to suppress the unhappiness in her heart.

During the banquet, the men talked more, but the women talked less, after all, some words were not suitable for this occasion.

Lin Long reached out and squeezed Ye Man'an's hand under the table, and when she saw her looking over, she whispered that she was going to the toilet and asked her to accompany her.

Ye Man'an smelled the smell of wine on Lin Long's body, and was also worried that she was a little drunk and had an accident in the process of going to the toilet, so she nodded hurriedly, helped Lin Long get up and exited the box.

After Ye Xuyao glanced at his wife and sister-in-law who went out, his face turned pale, "Kaishi, what the hell are you doing?" If you don't look down on my sister-in-law, don't agree to this marriage before, no matter how bad she is, she will still be my own sister. ”

Fu Nian was stunned, and wanted to hide his thoughts, "I don't have it......"

"Not yet? Are you blind to my eyes? Ye Xuyao asked in a cold voice.

Fu Nian was stunned again, so he no longer covered it up.

In the corridor outside, Ye Man'an was asked by Lin Long, so she didn't pretend to be strong anymore, in fact, she has been smiling and laughing all this time, and she is really laughing and sorrowful, and sighed helplessly, "Sister-in-law, I won't tell you, he thinks I'm too scheming......"

Lin Long didn't expect such a reason, her mouth opened wide in shock, and she immediately thought of the origin of Ye Man'an's marriage.

At this time, Ye Man'an glanced at the red lantern fluttering among the flowers not far away, and his tone was both helpless and sad, "On the wedding night, he asked me, did he deliberately approach his mother to create this opportunity to get married?" Did he buy off the slaves around his mother as internal responses? I ......"
