Looking at Chun'er's expression, Liu Qiaoruo knew the answer, it must be just like she guessed, the original owner was a person who only lived in her own world, she didn't even care about her husband and daughter, how could she spend time doing good things.

But in this way, the situation is even more weird, why did the uncle and aunt who didn't know him suddenly come to repay the favor?

The fact is that Huo Qiyou wanted to be good to Liu Qiaoruo's mother and daughter, wanted to take care of them, but he was not good at expressing it, and he was even more afraid of being rejected, so he asked Qu Shaohuan to find someone to lie that he was favored by Liu Qiaoruo, and then let people send them food, just hoping that Liu Qiaoruo's mother and daughter could have a better life.

Qu Shaohuan knew that the people he was looking for couldn't talk too much, otherwise it would ruin the young master's hard work, so he found the villagers who had received the favor of the young master and asked them to only do things and not speak.

"Take this money, thank you for your help, in the future, remember to send the food to the abandoned house on time, the young master will not treat you badly."

Qu Shaohuan waited in the grove just to know the outcome of the mission, but fortunately it was successful.

The uncle and aunt hurriedly shook their heads, and the uncle said: "Young Master Huo has helped us a lot, it is our honor to be able to help Young Master Huo run errands, Master Qu rest assured, we will definitely not talk nonsense." ”

"I know you won't, please accept this silver, it's for the young master to use for you for the winter, he knows that you have been having a hard time lately, so he specially asked me to hand it over to you, but the young master did it, you can just keep it in your heart, don't spread it everywhere, understand?"

The face is cold and kind-hearted, this is the impression Huo Qiyou gives people, but he doesn't let people publicize his good deeds everywhere, in order not to make He Guang suspicious.

The uncle and aunt nodded, took the silver given by Qu Shaohuan and left.

Qu Shaohuan was about to go back to Huo's house to report to the young master, but he didn't expect to see the young lady as soon as he turned around, and he was arrested, his face was full of embarrassment, and he tried to think about how to lie.

Liu Qiaoruo didn't poke it, but just explained: "Please convey, at noon, let the young master come over for dinner." ”

The more she thought about it, the more strange she felt, so she caught up with her aunt and followed behind her aunt to find out, how could she expect to hear the conversation between the three of them, and she didn't expect that this was actually what Huo Qiyou meant.

Qu Shaohuan was shocked by the young lady's momentum, and paused for a moment before responding: "Yes." ”

At noon, Huo Qiyou was invited to come, he listened to Qu Shaohuan's return, and he was worried that Liu Qiaoruo would refuse his arrangement, but her attitude has always been very peaceful, and he gradually relaxed.

Just as Huo Qiyou's care for them is based on compensation for his daughter, Liu Qiaoruo is very adult-like, and deliberately wants to create opportunities for their father and daughter to get along.

She didn't know how long she could stay here, at least she had to make sure that after she left, Huo Xiangning would have someone who could take care of her, and this candidate was, of course, Huo Qiyou.

Since yesterday, Huo Qiyou gave fried rice to his daughter, and told the story to his daughter, and today Huo Xiangning stuck to him as soon as he saw his father coming.

After lunch, Huo Xiangning refused to let his father leave, pestering him to tell many heroic stories.

"Can that dad also go up the mountain to fight tigers?" After finishing the story of Wu Song's fight against the tiger that his father said, Huo Xiangning suddenly looked at his father seriously and asked.

"Okay."

"Can Ning'er also go up the mountain with her father to fight tigers?" She asked again, whimsically.

"Ning'er also wants to be a hero?"

"Yes."

Huo Qiyou couldn't help but wonder, he didn't want to raise a female wrestler, he touched his daughter's head, and said gently: "It's good to be a hero and leave it to Dad, Dad will protect Ning'er." ”

Huo Xiangning innocently asked again: "Then Dad will also protect his mother, right?" ”

When Huo Qiyou heard this, he unconsciously turned his gaze to Liu Qiaoruo, Liu Qiaoruo also turned his head because he heard Huo Xiangning's question, the eyes of the two met in the air, looked at each other for a while, and then looked away.

They are all uncomfortable with children's fairy tales.

"I'm going to water the seedlings." Liu Qiaoruo put down the book in her hand, got up and left the bedroom.

"It's time for Ning'er to sleep."

"Daddy hasn't answered Ning'er's words yet, you will also protect your mother, right?" Huo Xiangning insisted on asking for the answer.

You...... Who is this temper tantrum like? Pinching his daughter's small nose, Huo Qiyou threw the question back to her, "Then Ning Erxi doesn't want her father to protect her mother?" ”

Huo Xiangning replied as a matter of course: "Nature is a must!" ”

That's right, nature is necessary, both the mother and Ning'er are very important people in the father's heart, so the father naturally wants to protect Ning'er and Ning'er's mother."

Huo Xiangning smiled happily and shouted loudly, "Mother, Daddy said that he would protect you and Ning'er!" ”

Being shouted by his daughter, Huo Qiyou's cheeks couldn't help but heat up slightly, and he was suddenly glad that there were only him and his daughter in the room at this time, and no one would see his embarrassed appearance.

In order not to make his daughter ask any more surprising words, he urged: "Okay, it's time to sleep." ”

Huo Xiangning obediently lay on the bed, pestered his father and told the story for a while, and then slowly fell asleep.

After completing the task that Liu Qiaoruo said to tell the bedside story, Huo Qiyou left the bedroom and walked to the front hall, but he didn't see Liu Qiaoruo's person, he subconsciously came to the side room where he planted vegetables, and sure enough, he saw her.

He stepped forward to look at the soil and found that sprouts were really emerging in the mud, it turned out that she was not for fun, and it was really eye-opening to plant in this way.

How did you learn about growing vegetables in the house in the winter?"

Liu Qiaoruo couldn't help frowning, indoor cultivation is almost everyone's knowledge in modern times, but in this era, how can she explain it so as not to be suspicious? If it was intuition, he would definitely not believe it, so she simply didn't explain it, and changed the subject: "Can I ask you something?" ”

Say it. Huo Qiyou knew that she was doing tai chi, and he didn't plan to ask.

In the future, can you take the time to come over often?"

As soon as these words came out, he was really surprised, and even a little excited, thinking that she was finally moved by him.

Afraid that he would misunderstand, she hurriedly added: "I think that Ning'er needs your company, and the child needs the warmth of family affection." ”

What about you? Huo Qiyou wanted to ask her this question, but finally stopped.

His self-esteem is strong, she has already made him hit the nail countless times, even if she will ask for it for her daughter, but it is not easy for her, he can't ask for more.

How?" Seeing that he was silent, Liu Qiaoruo was worried that he was unwilling, so he asked again with some nervousness.

"I'll come over if I'm free."

Thank you."

"No need to thank me, I'm Ning'er's father." When talking about his father, Huo Qiyou looked at the change in her expression very seriously, and found that she was not obviously displeased, does this mean that she doesn't hate him so much?

At this moment, his mood is very complicated, but it is certain that most of them are excited, because Liu Qiaoruo's invisible change seems to tell him that the future can be expected.

"That ......"

"Huh?"

"It's fine." Liu Qiaoruo wanted to ask Huo Qiyou not to let people bring food over, but he was afraid that opening his mouth would hurt his heart and stifle his good intentions, so he didn't continue.

In that case, may I also make a reluctant request?"

If I can, please speak.
