"Brother Wangxi!"
Pei Jin'er cheered, and Zhuo Yao, who was coming in through the gate, stopped and hurriedly saluted Huo Yungui, "Aunt Gui, I'm ...... Uninvited. β
The young man in a maroon coonflower brocade shirt had a generous posture, Huo Yungui saw the heavy gift box held by the little guy behind him, and he already knew it in his heart, and stepped forward with a smile and said, "You kid, what are you doing with this." β
Zhuo Yao nodded to Pei Jin'er, then looked at Huo Yungui again, and pinched his fingers a little embarrassedly, "I...... I just saw that Aunt Shallow was back, so I came over...... Congratulations ......"
He said in a hurry, but Pei Jin'er's face suddenly became ugly when she heard him say Huo Yunqian.
Huo Yungui was about to accept the gift box, but when he saw Zhuo Yao's face full of small expectations, his heart was relieved, and he nodded with a smile, "Yes, that kid actually ran to the Qin Palace, making us worry in vain." β
"Qin Wangfu?" Pei Jin'er screamed strangely, "Auntie, is this what you want?" β
Zhuo Yao was stunned for a moment, and his heart suddenly felt a dull pain, and he couldn't speak.
"Jin'er! Do you know what you're talking nonsense? Huo Yungui's face sank instantly, and she raised her hand and almost wanted to slap her face, but it was easy to hold back.
Pei Jin'er was only quick to speak, and she regretted it a little after she finished speaking.
But before she could say anything to apologize, she saw her mother suddenly change her face and even wanted to hit someone, she shrank behind Zhuo Yao in fright, her eyes were red, and she bit her lip and didn't dare to say anything.
Huo Yungui took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and smiled reluctantly at Zhuo Yao, "In order to wait for the two of them, the reception banquet has not yet started, since Wangxi is here, let's have some more food together." β
...... eating together?
Zhuo Yao cheered up and nodded vigorously, "Actually...... I haven't had lunch yet, just in time. β
After hearing this, Huo Yunzhui, who was about to walk away, couldn't help but feel sour, and sighed, "Let your mother come back early." After so many years, she is sorry for you, what is the use of such a Qing Xiu? Can you really have peace of mind? β
Zhuo Yao pursed his lips, and his smile became bitter.
Pei Jin'er looked curiously between the two, what is the story of Brother Wangxi's mother?
β¦β¦
Before she reached the door of Dingyuan, Huo Yunqian had already sneezed several times, and she didn't know who was talking about her behind her back.
Rubbing his nose, Huo Yunqian was about to sneak back to the room quietly, when suddenly an iron tower turned around the corner - ah no, it was her loyal King Kong Barbie.
The master and servant stared at each other for a long time.
"Little-sister!"
The silver screen howled "wow", and rushed over with three steps and two steps to hug Huo Yunqian!
"Miss, how can you leave the slave and run away by yourself...... Woo, miss, there are no slaves to serve you, how did you carry it......"
Huo Yunqian poked his head out of a pair of iron arms with difficulty, and took a breath, "Let goβlet me go!" β
For Huo Yunqian's "escape", Yinping blamed himself and was even a little disappointed.
Miss went to do such an important thing, and she didn't even take her! Doesn't Miss trust her, can't she help Miss? Didn't Miss praise her for being the most capable?
Halfway through the bath, Huo Yunqian kept feeling that a resentful gaze fell on his back, helpless and funny.
It's easy to bathe and change clothes, this time Yinping and Yinqiao said that they wouldn't leave their young lady for half a step, and they all followed Huo Yunqian to the dining room.
At this time, Mrs. Feng and Huo Tang'er were already seated in the dining room, as well as Huo Mingyou's family of three.
Huo Mingyou, who had also just rushed back, had already arrived earlier than her, wearing a blue silk shirt hanging loosely on his body, looking no longer the general who had been dominant, and he had the graceful style of a scribe.
And Lu Mengchun and Huo Rouer, who had been punished, felt a lot more obediently, sitting beside him on the left and right, and still couldn't help but talk to him in a low voice.
Huo Mingyou listened patiently with a smile, raised his eyes and saw that his little sister had come in, and beckoned happily, "Ah Qian, you can count yourself here, if you don't come, I will starve to death." β
"Anyway, the third brother still owes me a few meals, and I'm not in a hurry at all." Huo Yunqian squeezed his eyes at him, and walked in briskly, but he was stunned when he saw Zhuo Yao, "Wangxi-why are you here?" β
Zhuo Yao hurriedly stood up, "I...... I came over to congratulate Uncle You and Aunt Asao, I ...... I brought a gift! β
He pointed to the little guy at the door, and his eyes still involuntarily stared at the girl in front of him.
I haven't seen her for half a month, she seems to have lost some weight, and she is also a little tanned, at this time she should have just bathed, her black hair is loose and loose, and she is indescribably lazy in her gestures, and the difference between Ah Qian in his impression seems to be greater......
But such a shallow is really good-looking.
"Wangxi really has a heart." Huo Mingyou got up with a smile, went over and weighed it, and was secretly surprised in his heart.
This box is really a little heavy, this kid really put his heart into it.
He handed over a box to his little servant and said with a smile: "Wangxi is really polite, how many years have our two families lived next to each other, do you still need to pay attention to this?" β
Lifting up the other box, Huo Mingyou turned his head back, "Third sister, I asked the maid to take it back to the house for you directly?" β
Huo Yunqian had already come to Mrs. Feng and sat down, and couldn't wait to drink a cup of tea, only then did he raise his eyes and smile, "Let the third brother handle it." β
Huo Mingyou weighed the second gift box that seemed to be heavier, looked at the tall silver screen and the delicate silver warp, and then stuffed it into the silver screen's arms, "Let's take it back to Dingyuan first." β
"Hmm...... Be. Yinping was a little reluctant to leave Miss's side, and reluctantly left with the gift box.
As soon as Huo Yunqian sat down, Mrs. Feng held her left hand, and then said half-angrily and half-resentfully: "What a bastard girl, she has made people worry for more than half a month in vain." Don't run away this time, do you? β
Because of this "running away from home", Huo Yunqian was always weak in the face of his mother and second sister, and immediately shook Mrs. Feng's arm coquettishly, "It's really not." β
Huo Tang'er pursed her lips and chuckled, looking at her with envious eyes.
My little aunt is really chic...... was able to go far away from northern Xinjiang, and even made meritorious contributions to seal the county lord back, just like the female eagle in the sky.
"Anyway, I won't believe this girl anymore." Huo Yungui led Pei Jin'er in at this time, and snorted half-truthfully.
Huo Yunqian was helpless and stomped his feet, "Second sister!" β
The crowd burst into laughter.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Mrs. Feng called the maids to start serving.
Huo Mingyou glanced in Huo Tang'er's direction, pondered for a moment, turned to Mrs. Feng and said, "Mother, why didn't the second sister-in-law see it, leaving Tang'er alone here?" β
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the table changed.
Huo Tang'er trembled, subconsciously put down her chopsticks, and her originally hanging head was lowered even lower.
Mrs. Feng's brows furrowed, and Huo Yunzhui's face also turned cold.
