Chapter 160: Jiao'er

Eleven years ago, Master Huo went to Henan to do business, that night, he took Chu Qing to live in an inn in Luoyang City, although this inn is not the Huo family, but every time Master Huo goes to Luoyang, he will live there.

One evening, Master Huo had dinner and was drinking tea in the house, when suddenly the guy ran upstairs, Chu Qing opened the door to welcome him out, and the guy handed Chu Qing a letter, saying that someone had sent it to the counter.

Huo Peiran's name was written on the envelope, Chu Qing felt that the letter was strange, and was hesitating whether to give the letter to Master Huo, but Master Huo, who was in the door, heard the guy talking, so he walked out by himself.

When he saw the letter, he opened it in front of Chu Qing and his buddies, and Chu Qing didn't know the content of the letter, but he could guess one or two.

Because after reading the letter, Master Huo walked out of the inn alone.

At that time, Master Huo already had the nickname of the God of Wealth in Jiangnan, no matter where he went, he would bring a few guards with him, this time he came to Luoyang, and more than a dozen guards from the Huo family came.

But that time, he didn't take anyone with him, and he left alone.

Chu Qing was apprehensive in his heart, walking around the house for a while, and outside the house for a while.

But all night, Master Huo didn't come back.

When it was almost dawn, Chu Qing couldn't hold back anymore and asked Gu Tou'er to go out with the guards to find it.

But Gu Tou'er had just left the inn and came back, because they met Master Huo at the door.

Master Huo was still wearing the dark blue cloak when he went out, but the cloak was bulging, as if it was two or three times larger than before. It wasn't until he entered the house that Chu Qing was surprised to find that under the cloak were two children!

It's strange to say, Master Huo walked in from outside with them in his arms, and they slept soundly, but just after carefully putting them on the kang, they all woke up.

The cries came and went, although Master Huo had a daughter at home, but he was doing business outside all the year round, and his daughter was left to his wife and nurse to take care of, and he had no experience in taking care of children.

For a while, the master and servant were helpless, but Chu Qing ran out and called the shopkeeper of the inn to come over.

The shopkeeper has given birth to four children, the youngest one is only four months old, the small family does not pay much attention to the small family, the children are fed by herself, and there is no nurse. As soon as she picked up the little child, the child threw herself into her arms and looked for milk.

Master Huo and Chu Qing all avoided going out, leaving the shopkeeper to feed the children in the house.

Chu Qing's heart went up and down, where did these two children come from? Could it be that the old man was kind-hearted for a while and bought it from the human tooth?

But the small clothes and quilts on these two children are all good materials, how can there be such a thing in the hands of human teeth?

Chu Qing didn't think about it at all, he was the closest person to Master Huo, even longer than Mrs. Huo had been with Master Huo.

If Master Huo raised the outer room, others might not know, but he would definitely know.

Besides, Mrs. Huo has been married into the Huo family for many years and has no children under her knees, not to mention that Master Huo is raising an outer room, it is natural to accept a few aunts, and Mrs. Huo is virtuous and virtuous, and she has long wanted to take the initiative to take a concubine for Master Huo, but Master Huo insisted that the eldest son must be born from the main room, so this matter was put aside.

That is to say, Master Huo can carry people into the house at any time, and he doesn't need to raise the outer room, let alone sneak the outer room back.

Master Huo didn't pay attention to Chu Qing's worried face, his eyes stared at the curtain with the word Fu constantly tattooed without blinking.

After a long time, a woman's low voice came from inside the curtain: "Master, I can come in." ”

Master Huo hurriedly tiptoed in, only to realize that he was too worried.

The two children didn't sleep, they didn't cry or make trouble, one was lying in swaddling clothes, white and fat, Yuxue was cute, a pair of big eyes flickered, grinning and grinning and playing with their little hands, babbling in their mouths, and they didn't know what they were saying.

The other shrunk behind the neatly folded futon, bent like a small shrimp, although he is still young, but willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, delicate facial features, is a natural beauty, but it may be frightened, or it may be to a strange environment some recognition, a pair of beautiful eyes full of tears, but I can't bear to cry, a little look I see pity.

Master Huo gave the shopkeeper a big ingot, and the shopkeeper lady ushered in and sent it, and she had also seen the world, took the silver, and said to Master Huo: "The slave's own child has not been weaned, and it can help you once or twice, and it will not work if there are more times, if Huo Ye wants to find a nurse, the slave family can help you take a look." ”

Master Huo hurriedly thanked him and said, "It's not in a hurry, these two children will be sent away tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, but they will disturb Mrs. in the past two days." ”

The shopkeeper smiled: "You are a big customer of the trumpet, don't mention anything to disturb or not, we wish you could disturb a few more times." ”

Master Huo hurriedly said, "Mrs. is polite." ”

The shopkeeper said: "The little one is easy to say, as long as there is milk to eat, you can eat and drink, and you won't cry or make trouble." But the big one should have been weaned, and when the slave family fed her, she closed her mouth and didn't eat it, and the slave family went to cook some rice porridge for her, and after a while, Brother Lao Qing went to bring it. ”

This shopkeeper lady is very sophisticated, and at a glance, she guessed that these two children were not coming from the right way, although Master Huo is only a merchant, but he also has a head and a face, and this kind of thing must not be spread out, so she said that she would let Chu Qing serve porridge on the stove by herself, instead of letting the guy send it.

Master Huo sent the shopkeeper away, and when he looked at the two children, he became worried again.

The baby in swaddling clothes stretched out its little hand at him, and the little hand stretched out and clenched into a fist, and the baby screamed as if it was showing it to him.

Master Huo remembered that when his daughter was so old, once he came back from outside, his wife hugged his daughter over and asked her to stretch out her little hand, and her daughter was like this child, her little hand stretched out and held it, and the joy in his wife's voice could not be hidden: "Look, sir, Sister Yun will scratch." ”

He said to his daughter again: "Sister Yun, hurry up and show your father, our sister must be a clever hand when she grows up." ”

He still remembered that Sister Yun was also like this child, screaming at him while grabbing him, like a proud kitten.

When Master Huo thought of this, his heart warmed, and he hugged the infant child into his arms.

Instead of being afraid, the child laughed out loud, as soft as the April breeze, warm and soft.

"I haven't seen such a child who doesn't recognize it, master, this little brother must have a fate with you." Chu Qing was on the side.

"Little brother? You say he's a brother? Master Huo asked in surprise.
