Huojia Xifu in Huaishu Hutong, Huo Sijin and his aunt Huo Yuan came to Xifu to listen to the story.

The old lady of the district likes to be lively, and there are many female dependents in the family, not only to invite the opera troupe during the New Year's holidays, but also to invite female storytellers to come to the house from time to time.

Huo Jing, the third aunt and grandmother of Xifu, married to Baoding Mansion, came to the capital a while ago to see the doctor of Qianjinke, lived in her mother's house for a few months, and her mother-in-law came to pick up, and she will return to Baoding tomorrow.

Mrs. Feng in Dongfu is more than ten years younger than Mrs. Ou, she prefers to be lively, but she is a widow, one of her two daughters-in-law died, and the other went to office, and now in addition to herself, there are only her youngest daughter Huo Yuan and her granddaughter Huo Sijin who only came back this year, so it can't be lively in Dongfu if she wants to.

She has not been on good terms with the old lady of the district since she was young, and she will not come to Xifu for three days and two ends, she will not come, and the number of times is too much, Xifu will no longer invite her, every time she sends a decent grandmother over, only Huo Yuan and Huo Sijin are invited.

No matter how unhappy Old Madam Feng was, Huo Yuan and Huo Sijin all liked to come to Xifu.

When it comes to the door, the West Mansion is not as good as the East Mansion, and the house is not as elegant as the East Mansion, but the East Mansion is too deserted, they are all young girls, and no one wants to guard an old lady at home.

Especially Huo Sijin.

She has lived in the nunnery since she was a child, she is different from Huo Yuan, she doesn't like to be lively, on the contrary, these lively occasions have increased the pressure on her, although Mama Yan has been teaching her very hard, and she has worked hard to learn, but she still feels very tired, every time she goes out to socialize with Huo Yuan, she will feel tired.

But she would rather go out than stay with Old Madam Feng to serve.

Old Madam Feng is just a stepmother, not Huo Jiang's biological mother, and she is also polite and alienated to her, the granddaughter who fell from the world.

The glory of Dongfu comes from Huo Jiang, so Old Madam Feng will not be harsh on her granddaughter, but she will not be as kind and kind as Old Madam District to Huo Zhi and Huo Rong.

Today, Huo Sijin heard that Xifu came to invite them to listen to books and watch plays, so he dressed up early and came over with Huo Yuan.

When Huo Zhi saw her coming, she pulled her and muttered to Huo Rong: "Do you know? Today, I invited the white narcissus who has just turned red in the capital, this white narcissus......"

Speaking of this, Huo Zhi lowered her voice and said matter-of-factly: "This white narcissus, grandmother didn't want to invite her, I heard that she was listed in the Sihai Teahouse, and my grandmother said that she had never seen a woman who dared to sign a sign in the teahouse after living for such a long time, saying that she was restless, so I didn't want to invite her." ”

Huo Sijin was curious: "Then why did you invite again?" ”

Huo Rong laughed: "It's not that my sister and I are soft and hard, my grandmother is annoyed by our sisters, so I said let her come, just this time, next time I will invite Xiao Lanyu." Second sister, you have to wash your ears and listen carefully, we can't go to the teahouse, maybe we can only listen to this white narcissus once. ”

She listened attentively to her ears, and said that she had washed her ears and listened carefully, not only did not make people feel vulgar, but felt very cute and playful.

Huo Sijin didn't like Huo Zhi and Huo Rong, thinking that they were too noisy, but he had to admire them, they could always make the people who listened to them laugh, not mocking, but genuinely being amused by them.

She and Huo Yuan originally came to listen to the story as before, and they didn't have much interest, because when it came to it, it was just those paragraphs.

But after listening to Huo Zhi and Huo Rong's words, the aunt and nephew couldn't help but be interested.

This white narcissus is still telling stories in the teahouse, since she is a female storyteller, then she has to go in and out of the back house of a big family, she is a person who shows up in the teahouse, which big family's female relatives will invite her to come.

But Huo Zhi said again: "Guess what, when the fifth aunt asked people to invite, they learned that the person who wanted to invite Bai Shuixian to tell the story had already been lined up for two months. If it weren't for the fifth aunt who doubled the amount of silver, maybe we would have wanted to hear Bai Shuixian tell the story, and it would have been until next year. ”

When Huo Zhi spoke, Huo Rong nodded desperately, and the sisters sang and harmonized, cooperating tacitly.

Huo Sijin couldn't help but be curious, and asked, "So many people invite her, don't you care about her identity?" ”

As soon as she finished asking, Huo Yuan pouted and said: "How could a good official eunuch invite her, eight or nine times out of ten are merchants, they have silver, I heard that this white narcissus is popular, so I invited her over to save face." These merchants are the most difficult to get on the table. ”

Huo Zhi and Huo Rong glanced at each other, and the two of them said in unison: "Fourth aunt, you are half right, there are merchants who invite white narcissus, and there are also official eunuchs, by the way, the Huo family is invited, it is the Huo family who was in the Hall of Merit last time, with the same surname as us, but not the same clan, our family is the Huo family in Longxi, and they are the Huo family in Hangzhou." ”

Huo Yuan chuckled: "Who wants to have the same surname as them, it's just a coincidence, our family is really unlucky, and it actually has the same surname as a merchant." ”

Huo Zhi hurriedly said: "The Huo family in Hangzhou is not a merchant now, haven't you heard of it, the fourth aunt, is the Huo Jiu you saw in the Hall of Merit, who already has an official body, and is from the seventh grade, which is half a level worse than the Jinshi background." ”

Huo Yuan was even more disdainful: "What kind of official body is that, but it is just exchanged for silver, and it can be compared with the Jinshi who is a serious scholar, you two, don't talk about it anymore, this is also in front of me and Sister Jin'er, if you let the daughters of other families hear it, you still think that our Huo family is a messy family, and you will lose my eldest brother's face in vain." ”

The eldest brother she said was Huo Jiang.

Huo Zhi and Huo Rong didn't expect them to say a few casual words, and they attracted Huo Yuan's robbery, the sisters were very angry, and they were about to refute a few words, when they saw the oncoming eyes, Huo Si's apologetic and begging eyes, as if to say to them: "Today is a happy day, don't argue with the fourth aunt anymore, forget it." ”

The two swallowed back the words that came to their mouths, and they were even more displeased with this eighteen-year-old aunt Huo Yuan, who had not yet said goodbye, but Huo Sijin's gaze became more kind and cordial.

They are about the same age as Huo Sijin, but everyone who talks a lot likes to talk less, Huo Sijin just doesn't talk much, but when they speak, Huo Sijin will listen very carefully and listen to them, and occasionally praise them a few words.

Since they were children, they have been held in the palm of their hands by their families, and they are the interpreting flowers in front of their grandmothers.
