Yangzhou (1) The first official meeting with the cheap father

On the willow tops of the moon, Huo Shui'er would be quiet at this time to stay alone and read a book for a while, and the evening wind slowly blew from the window, blowing the book into a beautiful flower.

The book lay there silently, and its owner seemed to have no idea that it had been kissed by the wind.

The woman leaned on the wooden chair and was stunned, her lips seemed to be still hot, and there was a man's unique ambergris remaining, how could Ji Yuan kiss herself? Especially the possessiveness that cannot be ignored in his eyes, Huo Shui'er has never seen the same light in anyone's eyes.

Before thinking deeply, Zisu pushed the door and came in, "Girl, Steward Sun came to invite, saying that the master was waiting for the girl in the study." ”

Huo Shui'er responded, "Hey, I'll come." ”

Huo Gang still spends most of his time in the front yard on weekdays, and only comes to the backyard at night to have a deep physical communication with an aunt. Huo Shui'er has been in this world for so long, and she has never seen Huo Gang.

Huo Gang seemed to be in a hurry, Huo Shui'er followed Steward Sun, and his feet seemed to have wind on his feet all the way. Calculating the time, the old lady's boat should arrive tomorrow, Huo Gang must have come to ask about it. I had a guess in my heart, and although I was in a hurry, I didn't panic.

"Girl, the master is inside." Huo Gang's study is surrounded by evergreen bamboos, and the wind blows this night, making a "rustling" sound.

Huo Shui'er nodded, lifted the hem of her skirt and went up the steps, "Squeak", she pushed open the door and went in, a man in a cyan robe was writing something in front of the chair, she walked a few steps quickly, and saluted, "Father." ”

In response to her, there was a silence, and she stopped squatting, got up on her own, and raised her eyes to look at this cheap father, Huo Gang.

As the saying goes, each other is born from the heart.

This sentence does not seem to be accurate at all when applied to this left-hand minister.

If it weren't for a few white threads between his temples revealing his age, most people would have thought that he was only in his early thirties, just looking at his appearance, you can imagine how handsome and chic he was when he was young, people who have seen this face may not believe that he is a "hungry ghost in color".

Could it be, it's a rumor?

Huo Shui'er saw him holding a brush and writing something on the table that seemed to be a fold, and secretly denied the conjecture just now, she, the father, married twenty aunts! The whole twenty rooms are not afraid of hurting their bodies.

Just after Huo Shui'er looked at the thirteenth ornament, Huo Gang finally spoke, "Waiting for irritability? His voice was a little rough, as if he had been bewitched by smoke, and it didn't match his face at all.

Huo Shui'er was stunned for two seconds, and immediately retorted, "No, my father is busy with affairs, Shui'er has to wait." ”

Huo Gang put down the pen in his hand, "Come and sit." He gestured to the chair opposite.

"Your grandmother will arrive tomorrow, and you have arranged all the affairs?"

Huo Shui'er nodded, "Rongqing Hall and Meiyun Courtyard have been sprinkled and cleaned, the maid went in one day to smoke three incense sticks in the morning, noon and evening, and the decoration was according to the grandmother's coming, I heard that the grandmother liked to worship the Buddha in recent years, and added a new Buddha hall, which was dedicated to the grandmother's worship of the Buddha, and invited a white jade Buddha statue. The other is to arrange some maids and servants, which will be personally selected by grandmother and cousin when the time comes......"

Food, clothing, housing and transportation, Huo Shui'er read them one by one, Huo Gang stopped her after listening to half of it, "Okay, okay, don't read it anymore." ”

Huo Shui'er was a little confused, isn't that what you want to hear?

Huo Gang seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then asked her again, "Do you know that your grandmother doesn't like your mother?" ”

Huo Shui'er thought of what Mama Gui said and nodded.

"She doesn't like your mother, and she doesn't like you."

Huo Shui'er was stunned for a moment, is this cheap father so hardcore? Before my mother came, she tore her face first?

Huo Gang coughed twice, "Ahem, after your grandmother comes, you can do everything at your discretion, there must be due respect and courtesy, but it is not necessary to take into account the identity restrictions of the elders and juniors, there are some things that you can't change." ”

Huo Shui'er was completely stunned, and the implication was that the old lady would be provocative, but she didn't say it so bluntly.

"Your mother is also very considerate to your grandmother, but ......" Huo Gang coughed violently twice, "Ahem, you are a smart child, you should understand what it means to be a father." ”

Huo Shui'er came back to her senses from this straightforward reminder, how disgusted it must be for a father to tear apart the feud between his wife and mother in front of his daughter, and almost said directly, "Your grandmother hates you, this can't be changed, just get by on face, don't care too much." ”

Huo Gang seemed to want to explain these things, waved his hand and said, "It's good to know in your heart, you can go back." ”

"My daughter quit." Huo Shui'er walked a few steps and came back again, "Father, it's cold at night, pay attention to your body." ”

"Steward Sun, let the kitchen boil a cup of rock sugar pear paste and father."

"Yes, girl."

Huo Gang sat in the silent study, and when he heard Huo Shui'er's command, he lost his mind slightly, "Wanwan, our daughter's eyes really look like you." ”

It was night, and Cuizhu whispered in the wind, as if answering his words.

"Girl, Aunt Xie just sent someone to say that she wants to move to the courtyard near Rongqing Hall to live, so that she can do her filial piety." Zi Su handed over a cup of beauty soup and roughly repeated what Aunt Xie had just said.

"Filial piety?" Huo Shui'er tasted a mouthful of the soup, which was just warm enough to eat. "You send someone back to her, just say, I have no opinion on this matter, if grandmother is willing to accept her filial piety, I will immediately send someone to clean up the yard for her."

Hongli pouted and said, "The old lady hasn't come yet, so I want to go over first to get face." ”

"Father likes Aunt Xie very much recently, and it is understandable that she thinks more." Huo Shui'er stirred the soup, "I can't make my own decisions about this matter, if she doesn't like my grandmother, I will arrange her over, and I don't have anything to say." ”

"Aunt Xie has been boiling medicine in the big kitchen recently, and it is all the child-seeking soup prescribed by the house doctor for her." Zi Su went to the big kitchen a few days ago to deliver her list of ingredients, and happened to meet Aunt Xie's personal maid bribing the steward.

The person in charge recognized Zi Su as the big girl next to Huo Shui'er, and immediately rejected the silver.

Huo Shui'er governed the family strictly, the rewards and punishments were clear, and the mother-in-law in charge of the kitchen was afraid that Zisu would misunderstand, so she told Aunt Xie about drinking Qiuzi soup to Zisu.

Huo Shui'er swallowed the soup in her mouth, "There is no man in the house, not only she has this heart, but I'm afraid that my other nineteen aunts also have this heart, it's not surprising." ”

"This spring is coming to an end." Huo Shui'er put down the bowl and walked to the window, the flowering period of kapok was about to end, "Let the maid in charge of needlework in the house start making sachets, as soon as it is summer, there will be more mosquitoes." ”

"Huh." Hong Li responded, "Today, a needlework mother-in-law came to ask me, what is the arrangement of the old lady and Miss Biao's outfits?" ”

No one knew how long the old lady and the lady would stay.

"Let's do the summer clothes first." Huo Shui'er didn't know how long this old lady would stay, and she couldn't make a mistake on face. "The climate in Jiangnan is different from here, and the old lady and Miss Biao should pay attention to putting a basin of water in the room to make the air as moist as possible."

"The girl couldn't be more attentive." Hongli boasted.

"Count your mouth sweet." Huo Shui'er nodded her forehead, and her eyes turned, but she saw the Jade Rabbit paperweight lying quietly on the dresser.

Against the backdrop of candlelight, it looks warm and lovely.

Ji Yuan kissed that day, she panicked, helpless, hid him for two days, and the next day he sent someone to send this jade rabbit paperweight, and it also came with a note, the words on it dragon flying phoenix dance, "very like Jiaojiao".

At this time, by the candlelight, Huo Shui'er carefully looked at the jade rabbit, the person who created it was superb, and the demeanor of the jade rabbit was really vivid, she muttered, "Where is it like me, pure nonsense." ”

It was night, the moon bent and hung on her head, and her daughter's eyebrows bent into sweet dreams.
