In the blink of an eye, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Huo Roufeng sent An Hai to Huaishu Hutong and gave Huo Jiang a festival gift.

It was rumored outside that Huo Jiu was about to die of illness, so when An Hai came out as a gift, someone from Huaishu Hutong asked him about Huo Jiuye.

An Hai sighed and said: "The ninth master went back to the south for treatment, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for a while, my eldest lady said that the ninth master had been favored by Lord Huo, if the ninth master was in the capital, he would definitely visit in person, and now that he is not here, let me come over." “

An Hai's voice was full of sadness, Huo Jiuye had not yet reached the age of binding his hair, but he was terminally ill, even if he had gold and silver, he didn't even have any heirs, and the Huo family's huge family business didn't know who would fall into the hands of him in the future.

It is really sad for those who hear it, and tears for those who hear it.

Half a moment later, An Hai's words reached Huo Sijin's ears.

Cui Wei said: "Alas, when the slave maid heard about this before, she thought it was an exaggeration by someone outside, but now I heard the people in Shuangjing Hutong say it in person, it seems that this Huo Jiuye is really very sick." ”

Huo Sijin, who was wearing a single bun and a green makeup gown, sat on the rose chair, she picked up the tea cup with ink and azure and took a sip, the hand holding the tea cup was holding the orchid finger, and the tail finger was covered with a nail set with gold wire engraving.

She didn't speak, put down the teacup, picked up a book and flipped through it, but didn't read a word.

There are still 20 days before Zhanhuai is about to return to Beijing, he has already made a marriage, and now that he is famous, he wants to get married.

If she and Zhanhuai had a relationship back then, then she is the one who wants to marry Zhanhuai now.

Compared with Zhanhuai's exploits, even Huo Yan's title of champion is no longer dazzling.

I was really dizzy back then, and I actually listened to the rumors outside, thinking that Zhanhuai was a rude, ugly, murderous martial artist.

Mama Yan said that because the Zhan family heard the rumors early in the morning and knew that she didn't want to marry, she took the first step to marry Zhanhuai, so as not to be laughed at. Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental, when Liu Xiaobao arrived in Fuzhou, it happened to be the day of Zhanhuai's marriage.

Thinking of these past events, Huo Sijin had mixed feelings in his heart. Later, when Zhanhuai left Beijing, most of the people in the capital saw that General Zhan Wu was handsome and majestic, and I don't know who told Liu Xiaobao about going to Fuzhou to propose marriage, for a long time, she didn't want to go out, she didn't have to think about it to guess that those ladies must be laughing at her behind her.

Even if the relationship with the Zhan family did not work out, everyone in the capital knew that she was the person who the Queen Mother wanted to marry, so in the past two years, there have been no more people who even come to propose marriage.

Fortunately, there is still Sicheng.

Since she met Sicheng outside the Gongyuan that year, every once in a while, Sicheng would try her best to get people to send her things, sometimes head jewelry, sometimes a few poetry collections, which made her heart warm.

And since then, Huo Yan's attitude towards her has also been different, although he is not kind, but he is polite and no longer ignores her.

Although she didn't know, she felt in her heart that Sicheng must have persuaded Huo Yan, otherwise Huo Yan was dustless, how could he suddenly change his attitude towards her.

Sicheng cares about her.

Although Mama Yan didn't admit it, Huo Sijin still thought that Sicheng was her brother.

She said to Cui Wei: "Don't let Mama Yan know, you go down to inquire in private, if there is any news that General Zhan Wu is going to get married." ”

Zhan's family is far away in Fujian, but Zhanhuai has a brother and sister-in-law in the capital, and there is also a Guogong Mansion in the capital, although it is not easy to inquire about the news, but if you really want to inquire, you can also inquire about it.

Sure enough, within a few days, Cui Wei quietly told her: "If the fifth master of Zhan wants to get married, Fujian will definitely come, but the slave and maid inquired about it, and the main gate of the Guogong Mansion has not been opened for many years." Zhan Ju Ma occasionally comes back, but also through the side door, but even this side door, only Zhan Ju Ma enters and exits, and no outsiders have come to the Guogong Mansion these days. ”

Cui Wei said very reasonably, with Zhanhuai's merits today, he wants to get married, the emperor and the queen mother will definitely ask, eight or nine times out of ten are to be greeted in the capital, so that even if the Duke and wife of Min do not enter Beijing, Zhanhuai's eldest brother, the son of Zhanchen will also come, with their status and status, will not be quiet.

Huo Sijin was secretly happy, although it was no longer possible to have a relationship with Zhanhuai, but when he learned that Zhanhuai would not get married for a while, Huo Sijin was still in a good mood.

I heard that the woman who married Zhan Huai is just the granddaughter of an old subordinate of Min Guogong, who is a subordinate of Min Guogong, that is, the daughter of Jiangmen, and her background is not very high, at least not as good as her.

Huo Sijin couldn't help but sigh again, and I don't know what kind of good luck this woman had, she actually picked up such a big bargain, alas, she blamed herself for being young at the time, listening to the wind is rain, and missing a good marriage in vain.

Throughout August, Huo Sijin suffered from both gains and losses.

At this time, Huo Roufeng goes out early and returns late every day.

When she came back this time, she didn't contact Huang Xianjun and Lu Yu, although she hadn't grown up yet, and if she didn't look carefully, she could still pretend to be a man. But Huang Xianjun and Lu Yu are both fox friends who play with her, and she doesn't dare to show her face in front of them, these two must be able to see the clues. I'd better tell them another chance later, but not right now.

So these days, Huo Roufeng goes out alone, with only the two maids in her sister's house.

Although she returned to Shuangjing Hutong, she only went in and out of the back house, except for Mrs. Huo and the old people in her yard, few other maids and women saw her face, but they knew that there were relatives in the house, and it was a ninth lady from the Huo family's distant family. And the people in the front yard didn't know, even if they heard a few words, they only thought that they had come to live with the female dependents.

Huo Roufeng came back from Guangdong and rode a horse all the way, so she didn't bring a maid, and now she only serves Cai Qin and two little girls.

Although Guangdong is still rich, it is not as prosperous as the capital. Huo Roufeng is a person who watches the excitement, and when she finally returned to the capital, she wandered around.

The place she came from today is near the clan camp, where she came to wait for her arms, and since then, she has not been to this place again.

She sat in the sedan chair, looking at the side of the road through the narrow window on the sedan chair, and she saw the house again, an old man, with his back slightly bent, walking out of the sedan hall.

Huo Roufeng recognized it at a glance, this person was Uncle Wang, the person next to Xie Sicheng.

When she was in Ningbo, it was Uncle Wang who took her on that boat.
