Chapter 68: Birthday Gift

There is one staircase to enter the main hall.

Huo Yubai stood up strongly, and with Ruoxin's support, he went up the steps.

Momiji carries the wheelchair into the main hall.

Huo Yubai sat back in the wheelchair, and Ruoxin pushed her forward.

Meng Yunhan stood up and smiled at Huo Yubai, "Second Miss Huo." ”

Huo Yu raised his white eyebrows slightly, "Miss Meng San is here, what is the so-called matter?" ”

"The third princess and I are here, and we have something to tell Miss Huo Er."

Three princesses?

Huo Yubai looked at the woman sitting next to Xiahou Jie, with an indifferent expression, the woman's skin was pale, her eyebrows were picturesque, and her small face was big in the palm of her face, delicate and beautiful.

Up and down, there is a royal princess's extravagance.

The third princess, Si Peining, whose mother died early, has been raised by the queen's side since she was born, and she is the same as the princess.

He is gentle and sensible, and he has won the emperor's heart.

I haven't seen her for six years, Si Peining looks more calm and indifferent, and she almost doesn't know her anymore.

Compared with her indifferent expression, her cold and hard heart is more memorable.

At the banquet of the Nie family seven years ago, Xia Nanyi pressed a daughter into the water and almost drowned, Si Peining saw it and was still indifferent.

At that time, Si Peining was only a ten-year-old child.

Later, she asked Xia Nanyi to be brought into the room to teach a lesson, and Si Peining did not stop her.

In the end, when it came to the emperor, Si Peining only had one sentence, she didn't see anything, she didn't know anything.

It seems that everything, good and bad, whether she sees it or not, can be treated as if she didn't see it, and it doesn't matter to her, and she ignores it.

She will come with Meng Yunhan today, which really surprises her.

"The courtier's legs and feet are inconvenient, so I won't give the princess a gift, please forgive the princess." Huo Yubai said indifferently.

Si Peining hummed softly, his expression was always indifferent, his eyes stared at Huo Yubai's belt, and he took a few more looks.

"Miss Huo Er, it is said that the lord of Nanyi County beat you, and King Jing personally sought justice for you. As a result, the county lord of Nanyi was demoted to the county lord, and was sent back to Bian Cheng by the emperor, and he was not allowed to enter Beijing without a summons. Meng Yunhan smiled, and the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.

Something flashed in Huo Yu's white eyes, and he said indifferently, "Then?" What does Miss Meng San want to say? ”

"It's nothing, the little woman admires Miss Huo Er, in this Shengjing City, many official daughters admire Miss Huo Er.

No, everybody wants to see you.

It just so happened that three days later, there was a poetry meeting in Begonia Garden, and the third princess and I specially invited Miss Huo Er to go. ”

Huo Yubai smiled slightly, poetry meeting? Are you planning to compete for talent and make her make a fool of herself, or are you planning to murder her?

In this aristocratic circle, poetry meetings, tea parties, and flower parties are basically places where the daughters of the aristocracy get together and tout each other and compete secretly.

Fooling around is a trivial matter, and I'm afraid that there will be uneasy and well-intentioned people, waiting to calculate people.

"Miss Meng San, you also saw it, my legs and feet are inconvenient."

"Miss Huo Er was able to go to the criminal department with King Jing yesterday, go to the restaurant, and go to a poetry meeting three days later, there should be no problem. If you don't go, if you don't know, you still think that Miss Huo Er looks down on people. Meng Yunhan said with a smile.

Scold......

Huo Yubai sneered in his heart, and said indifferently, "What if you can afford it?" What about contempt? ”

Meng Yunhan was annoyed in her heart, Huo Yubai was really difficult to deal with, she had underestimated her before, and she also underestimated King Jing's attention to her.

"Since Miss Huo Er is in Shengjing, she has dealings with other daughters, so she can just make friends. Every year, Miss Huo San and Miss Huo Si participated. Si Peining said lightly.

Huo Yubai looked at Si Peining, the third princess, who had always ignored everything, actually asked her to participate in the poetry meeting, what was her intention?

"Since the third princess said so, I can't say anything if I refuse."

"After those three days, I'll be waiting for Miss Huo Er."

Si Peining got up, and Shi Shiran left, "The general's wife doesn't have to send it." ”

Xiahou Jie stopped.

Meng Yunhan smiled meaningfully at Huo Yubai and followed his boss Pei Ning.

Xiahou Jie was worried, and when Si Peining and Meng Yunhan walked away, she couldn't help but say, "Yubai, you have to be careful. ”

Huo Yubai smiled lightly, "Don't worry, auntie, I know it in my heart." ”

But a poetry club, she is not afraid to worry.

……

Si Jingmo came back from Shuiyue Nunnery and went to the Criminal Department.

Later, I went to Mo Yuxuan, took a piece of jade pendant that I had customized earlier, then went to the restaurant for dinner, and finally went to Huo's house to pick up Huo Yuqi.

When he went, it was already late, and as usual, he went directly to Huo Yubai's boudoir.

For all this, Huo Lifeng and Xiahou Jie felt that it was inappropriate, but they were helpless.

Ke Xingyi watched secretly, worried in his heart, not knowing how everything would develop.

Huo Yubai was supervising Huo Yuqi's writing, holding a slender bamboo strip in his hand, ready to beat the rhythm of the handboard at any time.

Huo Yuqi sat on a small stool, with a high stool in front of him as a table, sitting upright, but the expression on his face was how aggrieved and aggrieved he was.

When Si Jingmo entered the house, he saw this scene, from the beginning he was angry with Huo Yu for murdering his son, and before he knew it, he was used to it.

"Daddy." Huo Yuqi pursed his mouth, feeling aggrieved, but he didn't dare to sue, for fear that his father would not like his mother.

Si Jingmo looked at his pitiful little appearance and couldn't help laughing, "Beaten?" ”

Huo Yuqi shook his head and said aggrievedly, "No, Sister Yu is very gentle, and she is reluctant to beat me, just to scare me." ”

Si Jingmo smiled, he still admired Huo Yubai, she had a way of disciplining children, no matter how fierce she was, the children would not hate her.

Huo Yubai was a little embarrassed in his heart, obviously disciplining his son, inexplicably, he just felt embarrassed, and he felt like he was overstepping.

"Daddy has a gift for you." Si Jingmo took out a sandalwood box from his sleeve and put it in front of Huo Yuqi, "I said before, I will make up a birthday gift for you, you can see if you like it or not." ”

Huo Yuqi was overjoyed and opened the box.

In the box, there is a piece of mutton fat white jade transparent round carved moire jade, the luster white reveals a slight yellow, the jade is warm and dense, transparent and flawless.

It's worth a lot of money at first glance.

Huo Yuqi carefully picked up the jade pendant and looked at it repeatedly.

There is a word "Division" on the front of the jade pendant, and the word "Yuqi" is engraved on the reverse side, and the font is smaller than the word "Division".

"There's my name, Si Yuqi." Huo Yuqi grinned and couldn't put down his love for Yu Pei.

Si Jingmo smiled gently, "Do you like it?" ”

"Uh-huh." Huo Yuqi nodded hurriedly, smiling with crooked eyes, "I like it very much!" Thank you Daddy! ”

"No thanks."

“……”

Huo Yubai looked at Si Jingmo, and wanted to say thank you in her heart, she missed her son's birthday this year, and she didn't even think of making up a gift.

Si Jingmo is really caring, whether it is to the child or to her.

Si Jingmo noticed Huo Yubai's gaze, turned his head to look at her, and crashed into her dark eyes.

Looking at each other, both of them were stunned.

Huo Yubai smiled, "The prince is a good father." ”

Si Jingmo's eyes flashed slightly, thinking of the two skeletons found in Shuiyue Nunnery, his mood was complicated, and he didn't know whether to ask or not.
