At this moment, a male voice came from outside the door: "What's the matter?" How is it so quiet? Then the curtain was lifted. Walk in a couple of men. Although the green shark recognized the person in the lead as Hou Ye, followed by the familiar Hou Mansion Young Master and a young man, he still cautiously took two steps back and lowered his head.

An's and Li's both stood up and said hello, Yijun and Xijun all saluted, Huo Yi heard their names and knew that it was uncle, so he immediately bowed down to salute. Hou Ye responded one by one with a smile, and everyone sat down again.

An Shi said Huo Yi's words with a little complaint, and said: "Master Hou should also persuade Mrs. Gu, why should the family see outside?" Could it be that our family can't live in it? My niece's daughter wants to move out as soon as possible? She was a little angry in her heart, how much effort did she spend on the Huo family in order to achieve that wish in her heart? Who knows that everything is not going well! In the letter that Ping An brought from the south, it was mentioned that Mr. Li Jing stopped him from doing things, and it was like turning his arm out! She didn't get any benefit from herself, and now the little girl of the Huo family still wants to slip away? What a dream! What do you think you are? The little girl doesn't know the number of etiquette, so let the person who knows the number of etiquette to press her!

Hou Ye frowned slightly when he heard this, and looked at his sister: "But what's so embarrassing?" We are close relatives, and when we corresponded before, we also said that we would go home to live, but why did we change our hexagram again? ”

Lee moved uneasily. glanced at her daughter: "It's Yi'er who is young and ignorant, don't be angry, brother...... Yi'er! Why don't you pay compensation to your uncle and aunt?! ”

Huo Yi pursed her lips, her eyes turned red, and she knelt on the ground: "Uncle, aunt, please forgive my nephew and daughter for being rude." It's not that my nephew's daughter doesn't know what to do, but I'm really scared. When he was in Nanjing, due to the death of his father, the emperor issued an order to choose an heir for the Huo family, and the clansmen were ...... I am unwilling, and I often come to the door, wanting to ask for some benefits. At that time, the family was busy with the funeral, and the mother was seriously ill, so she invited the eldest cousin to preside over the overall situation, but the clansmen said that the eldest cousin was an outsider and couldn't manage the affairs of the Huo family.......

Huo Yi paused before continuing: "I heard that my mother and I plan to return to Beijing with our family. They spread rumors everywhere, saying that our mother and daughter were going to move all the Huo family's property to the Li family, and when the heirs grew up in the future, they would just have an empty shelf. The foul language is countless. After we set off from Nanjing, we also heard that they were raising money for the passage and were also going to Beijing, claiming that they would inform the heirs of our mother and daughter of the Huo family's property. The mother was afraid that if they did this, even if they were unwell on the road, they had to hurry up so that they could get to the capital as soon as possible. Yi'er knew that her grandmother, uncle, and aunt all sincerely pitied her mother and me, so how could she let them splash dirty water on the door of the Qingguo Marquis's Mansion? It would be better to draw the line earlier, so that they have no excuses to say. I also ask my grandmother, uncle, and aunt to be clear. "Say goodbye and bow deeply.

Hou Ye hurriedly stood up: "Hurry up, Yi'er has grievances, we will naturally make decisions for you, you should have told us a long time ago!" ”

Huo Yi slowly got up with the support of the girl, bowed her head and said, "The Huo family's internal affairs, but they made trouble at my uncle's house, what kind of face does my nephew's daughter have to say it?" ”

Hou Ye sighed. An Shi didn't react yet, the old lady was already angry, and hurriedly asked her daughter: "What Yi'er said is the truth?" Are those villains so bold?! Li wept: "It's all daughters useless...... the old lady was even more annoyed. called the eldest grandson Li Jing: "What are you doing to eat?" Just let people bully your aunt and cousin like this?! What the hell are you doing?! ”

Li Jing hurriedly knelt down and said: "Grandson called someone to stop him, but the patriarch of the Huo clan personally brought someone over, stating that it was the internal affairs of the Huo family, and grandson ...... I really can't get my hands on it. ”

Huo Yi hurriedly said: "Grandmother is angry, this matter is thanks to the eldest cousin, if he hadn't stopped him desperately, I was afraid that those people would have broken into my mother's room." Mother is sick, Yi'er is still young, and several housekeepers have colluded with those people, if it weren't for the help of the eldest cousin, the family still doesn't know what the chaos would be! ”

The old lady kept a straight face and didn't speak, so Hou Ye took the opportunity to say: "That's it, it's what he should do." There are just a lot to be desired. Then he lowered his face and asked the eldest son: "If you didn't stop them from making trouble because of the status of the patriarch of the Huo clan, then how did your aunt and cousin get entangled in Beijing later?!" Look at your aunt's countenance! Didn't you take good care of your elders along the way?! ”

Li Jing lowered his head and said: "It's all the son's negligence, because before leaving, the Huo clan didn't come to the door again, the son thought that they wouldn't come to make trouble again, where did he think that they had such an idea?" When I went ashore to buy in Hanzhuang, I heard about it. My aunt was afraid that if they entered Beijing first, they would cause misunderstanding and cause trouble for the heirs, so she ordered them to hurry as soon as possible. The son also agreed with his aunt's idea, but forgot that his aunt's illness had not yet recovered. He solemnly gave a big gift to the Li family: "It's all my nephew's fault." ”

Li Shi hurriedly helped him: "I made my own opinion, how did it become your fault?" He turned back to his mother and brother and said, "For most of the past six months, thanks to this child, if it weren't for him, our orphans and widows would have ......." His voice choked.

The old lady was distressed when she saw it, and hurriedly hugged her to comfort: "Okay, okay, now that I'm home, no one dares to bully your mother and daughter anymore." Rest assured! Glancing at Li Jing, his face was much better: "It's okay to do this, you are young and inconsiderate, and you can't do this in the future!" ”

Li Jing said yes in his mouth and respectfully stepped back. Jing looked at her husband worriedly, then quietly glanced at the old lady and bit her lip.

An Shi cleared his throat and said with a smile: "Can you hear what Hou Ye said?" Nieces and daughters don't have to worry too much, just stay in our house, if the Huo clan dares to come, they will definitely know that it is powerful! As for the heir, don't worry about it, that's just a child, what do you know? ”

Huo Yi frowned quickly, but the old lady said, "Well said!" Our family has always had an excellent reputation, and we are not afraid of others splashing dirty water! Then he said to his daughter: "Ming'er will take that child over and live with him, so that someone will not provoke it!" ”

Li smiled weakly: "He also has parents, and we are already in the capital, so why should we let them separate their flesh and blood?" ”

The old lady looked at her daughter disapprovingly. was about to speak, but the green shark suddenly said, "Madam, but you're dizzy again?" Then he told the old lady: "My wife didn't rest well all the way, and she cried again last night." The little one dared to ask the old lady for forgiveness, but the wife was really tired, and she was afraid that she would get sick again. Hearing this, Huo Yi also worriedly walked over and pulled his mother's hand. Li Shi smiled faintly: "It's not in the way, I still want to talk to my mother for a while...... but his face became more and more pale.

The old lady was bluffed, and hurriedly called the girl: "Hurry up, Mrs. Fugu go and rest." Is the house all tidied up? ”

"It's already packed." An Shi didn't dare to say anything else, and hurriedly replied, "It's in the evening fragrance hall next to it." The beds and tea were all ready-made, but I don't know how many people my aunt brought here, so only five or six people were arranged there. ”

"Get someone over!" The old lady couldn't wait to go out in person, Liuli took two steps forward with a very eye-catching look, and helped Li with the green shark left and right, and went out of the door. Huo Yi confessed to the old lady, Hou Ye and An's family, and hurriedly followed.

The old lady sat down and kept wiping away her tears: "Zhang'er, I didn't know that your sister had suffered so much, but I had to take good care of her in the future." ”

"That's what Mother said." Hou Ye solemnly responded, and ordered his wife, "Quickly arrange for people to come over, and then ask someone to send a letter to the Huo family's old house, and ask the housekeeper to bring luggage and familiar subordinates over." Although my nephew and daughter have concerns, our family will not abandon their relatives for the sake of face! ”

An Shi was busy responding, turned his back, but his eyes rolled and he was thinking about it.

The third young master, Li You, had been silently watching this scene from the side, and somehow, he felt a little ironic. Among them, Cousin Huo is an interesting person, when she knows her parents' arrangements, I don't know how she will deal with it?

Everyone scattered, Li You went back to the main room with his mother, and listened to her arranging some housework, so he casually used an excuse, said goodbye, returned to Huanhuaxuan, and said with a smile when he entered the house: "I just saw my aunt and cousin Huo, do you know what happened?" ”

"What's going on? The third young master actually laughed like this? It was Manru who was sitting in the room doing needlework, and stood up with a smile when he heard the words.

Li You paused, quickly glanced around, and an unknown light flashed in his eyes: "...... How are you? What about Lu'er? ”

"The jade in the second lady's house came to look for her and went out." Manru smiled softly and poured him a bowl of tea, "I heard that Mrs. Gu and Miss Cousin are here today." It's just that there is no one in this house, I don't dare to go out to see the excitement, the third young master will tell me how it is? Then he sat down on the pedal next to him, and looked up at him with a look of longing.

Li You put down the tea bowl with a bang, and the corners of his mouth hooked: "What is there to say?" My aunt was very kind, but she was not in good health, so she was afraid that she would be tired, so she went to rest early. My cousin is also extremely filial. They are going to stay at our house for a while, and if you are free, you should go and say hello, just don't disturb your aunt's rest. ”

"Yes." Manru obediently responded, raised her little face and wanted to say something, but heard footsteps outside the door, and then the door curtain was lifted, Lu'er walked in, and was about to speak with a straight face, when she suddenly saw Li You, she hurriedly closed her mouth and saluted him: "Why did the third young master come back so early today?" I just sent a message to you at the second gate, and I will tell the old lady to come back later. ”

Li You smiled: "I still have something important, don't pay attention to him, it's just naughty." My aunt was not in good health, so she had to rest early, and everyone dispersed. I also said to Manru just now, you have to be free, and it is convenient for your aunt to inquire, so you should go over and say goodbye. After that, he opened the snack box on the table, flipped through it, and frowned: "What's so delicious about these?" You love to put it in my house! Manru, you make me a stewed egg, I haven't eaten it for a long time, I miss it. ”

Man Ru responded with a smile, but suddenly didn't know what to think, his face turned pale, and he barely squeezed out a smile, and asked, "Does the third young master want to add shiitake mushrooms or minced meat?" Should you eat salty or sweet? ”

"Don't you know what I like to eat?" Li You waved his hand, "Whatever you want, be refreshing!" When Manru went out, he smiled and beckoned Lu'er to come over: "Did you say what happened?" ”

Lu'er lowered her voice and said, "I said that I have something to bring to you, but it is inconvenient for others to pass it on." Li You pondered for a moment and nodded: "I'll go back and look for him." What's going on? How did you let Manru stay alone in the house? ”

Lu'er bowed her head and was silent, Li You sighed, not wanting to say anything: "Be more careful yourself, don't always be deceived by others-I was at my mother's place just now, and after listening to her arrangement, it seems that I plan to draw one or two people from each courtyard to go to the evening fragrance hall to wait for my aunt and cousin." I thought...... It's about the most people out of the main courtyard, I'm afraid that my mother will lack manpower, thinking that there are the most idlers in our courtyard, so I want to ask you, which person do you think is better? ”

Lu'er raised her head to look at him in surprise: "You mean ......" took a deep breath: "I just don't know what the third young master thinks, if it is to wait for Mrs. Gu and Miss Cousin, then we can go to any one of them, but if you want to reduce some idlers, then it should be ......"

"What are you discussing?" Before Lu'er finished speaking, Man Ru suddenly lifted the curtain and came in, and Li You glanced at her: "Is the stew done?" ”

"Where?" Manru said with a smile, "Mung Bean said that he had eaten eggs in the morning, and now he eats eggs again, but I'm afraid it's not good, so I don't know how to do it again?" ”

Li You smiled: "That's right, I actually forgot, Chun'er said this principle at the beginning, you can't eat too many eggs a day, right?" ”

Manru's face changed suddenly, and he smiled a little unnaturally: "Yes...... I just heard that the third young master is going to send someone to wait for Mrs. Gu and Miss Cousin, do you plan to let Lu'er go? It's not that I said, Third Young Master, Lu'er is a first-class girl in our courtyard, and she was sent on a business trip for no reason, and people who don't know think she did something wrong. It's good that the wife lifted her, and you can't sweep the wife's face. ”

Lu'er pursed her lips and didn't speak, her eyes were a little red, and the third young master smiled: "When did I say that I was going to send her over?" I'm just asking her who she should send if she wants to send it. ”

Man Ru hurriedly said: "In our courtyard, in terms of qualifications and skills, it is the two top-notch wisteria and Shi'er, they are both careful and speak smartly, presumably Mrs. Gu and Miss Biao will like it?" ”

Lu'er said lightly: "Wisteria is from Mrs.'s house, and sooner or later I have to go back, and I sent her away, so what does Mrs. think?" Shi'er is still young, and she is a little girl, send her there, I don't have to make people laugh at our Huanhuaxuan. If you can't send someone, you will send a third-class person. ”

Manru gritted his teeth: "Then send ......" "Okay!" Li You stood up with a lack of interest, "I just asked casually, but I have attracted you to say so much, who is in charge in this courtyard?" After that, he walked out the door: "I'll go to the outer study to practice calligraphy, you can play by yourself!" Rain on someone's parade! ”

He lifted the curtain and went, leaving Lu'er and Manru in place, staring at each other in silence. After a while, Lou turned to the window and picked up the needlework basket and embroidered it. Manru bit her lip, stomped her foot and turned out, clenching her fists.

(Originally, the name of this chapter should be called "Beware of the machine Lori meets the belly black Zhengtai",Later, I thought that Manru was no longer Lori,...... ）。.。
