Chapter 101: The Hao Brothers
Mrs. Gao ordered someone to rearrange the hundred gardens, replaced the brocade quilts of the house, and added several valuable antique ornaments. There are gilded peony golden branches, white jade carved dragons and phoenixes are auspicious, and even the congratulatory gifts at the birthday banquet, white jade Guanyin also took it. The entire Gao Mansion was immersed in a pleasant and peaceful atmosphere.
Only Han Yuxue hid in her room, walking back and forth with trepidation.
"What the hell! So she's not dead yet! Could it be that she is immortal? Gao Yuxue said angrily, her face was as defeated as if she had seen a ghost, and her two slender hands were rubbing back and forth.
"Miss, how can there be such a person in this world!" Qiu Ju also felt a chill down her spine, and originally wanted to complain to the old lady and hurt Gao Wei Lake fiercely, but she didn't expect Gao Wei Lake to appear in front of them unharmed.
"It seems that Gao Weihu has begun to doubt me, and he will definitely not let me go!" A layer of cold sweat appeared on Gao Weixue's forehead unconsciously, and Hao's repeatedly told her not to provoke Gao Weihu, but Gao Weixue was used to her arrogance and domineering, and she couldn't tolerate any of the Gao family's heirs to be more favored than herself.
Although he has suffered several losses, if he doesn't get rid of Gao Wei Lake, how can he win Gao Jingluo's love again? But Gao Weixue did not recognize her current status in the Gao family, nor did she recognize Gao Weihu's status in Gao Jingluo's heart, so the woman's jealousy made her close to Gao Weihu's bottom line.
"Cousin!" A voice came in from outside.
Two men with very different looks walked into the house one after the other.
Walking in front was a thin brother, with a light face, who seemed to have a trace of treachery between his eyebrows. He was followed by his younger brother Hao Botian, who was bloated and had an oily face.
These two brothers are the third and fourth sons of Hao Xiaojie, the general of Zhenxi, that is, the two nephews of the Hao family. Although the two brothers are twins, their looks are indeed very different, since they were children, they are fat and thin, tall and short, smart and real, but these two are born with the same heart, one has a bright head, and the other is as strong as a cow, and they are also the seedlings that the Hao family focuses on cultivating.
The two brothers also lived up to Hao Xiaojie's training, at the age of fifteen they could lead the troops to fight on the battlefield, and at the age of seventeen, they made great achievements.
And his younger brother Hao Botian was also as powerful as an ox in battle, and he was able to help him with the divine power of one enemy and ten, so the emperor named him a brave general.
"What was the wind that brought the two cousins here?" Gao Yuxue suddenly became smiling.
"Cousin, we have just entered Beijing, and I heard that you are also back, so I came to catch up with you." Hao Boyan's eyes had already narrowed into a slit with a smile, and the eyes hidden inside couldn't see a trace of expression at all.
"Fourth cousin, you seem to be fat again?" Saying that, Gao Weixue slapped her slender jade hand twice under Hao Botian's chin, only to see the fat on Hao Botian's chin flick up and down comically.
"Hehe, cousin." Hao Botian actually laughed shyly.
Gao Weixue wiped her hand on the handkerchief, Hao Botian's chin seemed to be really fat, and the greasy and slippery feeling made Gao Weixue very disgusted, so she glanced at Hao Boyan and said.
"Third cousin, look at how thin you are, your cheekbones are bulging." Gao Weixue looked at Hao Boyan with a distressed face, since she was a child, Gao Weixue just liked to play ambiguous between the two, and the two brothers were fascinated, and they often fought for Gao Weixue.
But now that the three of them have grown up, Hao Boyan only has a superficial past to this cousin, and only Hao Botian will stupidly regard Gao Yuxue as the goddess in his heart.
"Haha, thank you cousin for your concern, it's just that you should care more about Botian, he talks about you all day long." Hao Boyan knew Gao Yuxue's tricks very well, so he immediately turned the conversation to Hao Botian, who looked infatuated.
Although Gao Weixue had a hypocritical smile on her face, she was actually very disgusted with this fat-covered fourth cousin, it was already late autumn and the weather was getting cooler, but Hao Botian's body had been exuding a lingering smell of sweat, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
"Qiu Ju, serve tea to the two brothers, let's come to the best Biluochun. Then tell the kitchen to prepare a few delicate snacks. Gao Weixue glanced at Qiu Ju beside her.
"Yes, miss." Qiu Ju retreated.
Gao Yuxue invited the two to sit down, and she really felt uncomfortable being stared at by Hao Boyan.
"Cousin, tell me, why did you suddenly come back today?" Gao Yuxue knew that since the two of them were sent to assist Hao Xiaojie to guard the frontier and quell the war, if there was no major event, they would not return to Beijing casually.
"Don't cousins know? At the chrysanthemum banquet, the emperor wants to give marriage to eighteen generals who have not married their relatives and guard the frontier! So they brought us back a few days early. There was a bit of impatience in Hao Boyan's tone.
"That's right, and this chrysanthemum banquet is different from the past, it is said that the concubine Niangniang also specially invited a stranger from the Western Regions to come to help the fun." Hao Botian grinned and said with a smile.
The annual chrysanthemum banquet is the most important gathering of the powerful in the DPRK, it is a gimmick in the form of chrysanthemum appreciation, and all the heirs and families of the important ministers of the DPRK are gathered together in the palace, and various forces converge to achieve a win-win situation in the interests of marriage.
"I wonder if the two cousins have a young lady who is happy?" Gao Weixue stretched out her voice a little, and her beautiful eyes bent slightly.
"Cousin, I'm in love with you!" Hao Botian hurriedly leaned over his fat face.
Gao Wei Xue Dai frowned slightly, looking at the greasy face, she really didn't want to get too close, and instinctively leaned back.
"Three-year-old cousin, you are in charge of the fourth cousin!" Gao Yuxue said delicately, pretending to be a little shy on her face.
"Don't mess around, I heard that the Gao family has a second miss who is as beautiful as a fairy?" Hao Boyan's eyes narrowed, like a fox.
"You mean my vicious sister, Gao Weihu?" Gao Weixue didn't expect Hao Boyan to ask about Gao Wei Lake, and looked at Hao Boyan indifferently, no matter in front of anyone, slandering Gao Wei Lake is Gao Wei Xue's greatest pleasure.
"Vicious? What did my cousin say about this? Hao Boyan's original smile suddenly retracted a little, and he looked at Gao Yuxue in puzzlement.
At this time, Qiu Ju brought the tea in, followed by a handsome-looking inferior maid, holding a delicate redwood food box in her hand.
Hao Boyan suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed the girl behind Qiu Ju suddenly, and the maid under him threw the food box on the ground, and all the snacks inside were scattered.
"What are you doing here!" A cold drink came from the door.
