Chapter 6: Suicide
Li Yun's words made Huo Lifeng tremble with anger, and his hands were clasped on the back of the chair, and the green tendons on the back of his hands bulged.
"Bastard!"
"Uncle is discouraged, and there is no need to be like such an ignorant woman."
Huo Yubai's tone was soft, and when he looked at Li Yun, his eyes were cold.
"Mrs. Xu, there has never been a law in my Northern Yin Dynasty that stipulates that relatives can interfere in the marriage of their granddaughter.
Please tell my grandfather and step-grandmother for me, there are people in my Huo family, and it is not their turn to decide my Huo Yubai's marriage.
As for what you said, you have already received the dowry, and the Xu family has received it, so marrying the daughter of the Xu family is what to do with our Huo family? β
Li Yun's face was ugly, and her sharp voice scolded, "Is there anyone who speaks to the elders like this?" We care about you too!
You are twenty-one years old, and your body is not clean, and in a few years, you will be old and decrepit, and the widowers will not look down on you! Just wait for the lonely old age! β
"Mrs. Xu! You are too immoral to speak! Murong Jie slapped the table, her heart fluctuating with anger, "Someone! Get the people of the Xu family out! β
"I see who dares!" Li Yun's son Xu Jiucheng got up and blocked Li Yun.
"Someone, take a stick." Huo Yubai said lightly.
Huo Lingxuan walked out of the main hall with a calm face, took the stick from the guard's hand, walked back, and brushed the stick across Xu Jiucheng's neck, "Do you want to roll?" β
"You ......" Xu Jiucheng swallowed nervously, "You dare!" You beat the son of the court official, be careful of the imperial history of you, and your career will come to an end. β
"Big brother." Huo Yubai shook his head slightly, walked towards Huo Lingxuan, took the stick from his hand, and when Xu Jiucheng was proud, a stick hit Xu Jiucheng's leg hard.
"Ahh
Without waiting for everyone to react, one stick after another, not only beating Xu Jiucheng, but also Li Yun.
The mother and son are crying wolf.
The other three people who came with the mother and son of the Xu family saw Huo Yubai's fierce appearance, and they were so frightened that they got up and ran.
As he ran, he shouted, "Miss Huo Er is crazy!" Miss Huo Er hit someone! β
Huo Yubai was unrelenting, and simply knocked the mother and son of the Xu family out of the main hall and fled.
She didn't chase it, threw the stick aside, and clapped her hands.
When she turned around, she saw everyone looking at her in a daze.
Huo Yubai was embarrassed and said softly, "That, I was too angry just now." β
"Poof!" Huo Lingxuan laughed, "Good fight, relieve anger!" β
Others came back to their senses.
"Yes, relieve your anger, this is like the daughter of our General's Mansion!" Huo Lifeng smiled, without blaming at all.
Murong Jie also laughed.
Huo Yubai was a little embarrassed, "Aren't my cousin and cousin in the house?" β
"It's just that both of them are hot-tempered, and they are worried that they will have a conflict with the Xu family, so they don't dare to let them appear." Murong Jie said.
Huo Yubai nodded, "It's good not to show up, it's me who caused trouble to my eldest uncle and aunt." β
"What did you say?" Huo Lifeng had a straight face, his eyes were stern, "Family, don't see outsiders like this!" You've just come back from outside, and you're catching a cold, so go back to the house and change into thicker clothes. β
"Okay."
ββ¦β¦β
Huo Yubai returned to the Bright Jade Pavilion.
The furnishings in the room are still the same as when she left, simple and elegant.
Fingers gently brushed over the tabletop, and the dust was not clean.
Under the windowsill, a vase was placed, and a few blue-purple bellflower flowers were inserted in the bottle.
The room was quiet.
Her two girls died in Shuiyue Nunnery.
In a blink of an eye, it's been more than five years.
Huo Yubai rummaged in the closet for a while, found a set of blue-purple dresses, and went back to the inner room to change into them.
As soon as I changed my clothes, I heard the sound of footsteps.
"Second sister, are you there?"
Huo Yubai hurriedly walked out of the inner room and looked at his younger brothers and sisters who were entering the house one after another, "Yes." β
"Second sister."
Huo Jiayan and Huo Xuanqing sisters smiled and sat down at the table.
The two are five years younger than Huo Yubai, twins, and Huo Jiayan is the elder sister.
"Second sister." Huo Lingkai stood with nowhere to put his hands, looking a little cramped.
He is the young master of the Huo family, only fourteen years old.
Huo Yubai was puzzled, "Why doesn't the second brother sit?" β
Huo Xuanqing laughed, "He, there is a little more ink in his stomach, and he feels that there is a difference between men and women, even if he is his own sister and brother, he has to avoid suspicion, and it is inappropriate to enter your boudoir." β
Huo Yu smiled in vain, "Sit down, our family has been a military general for generations, so we won't pay so much attention to it." β
"That's it!" Huo Jiayan and Huo Xuanqing echoed and glared at Huo Lingkai, "Second sister has spoken, why don't you sit down?" β
Facing the two fierce sisters, Huo Lingkai sat down obediently and kept his head down.
This appearance made Huo Yubai couldn't help but laugh, "I feel that the second brother is so well-behaved." β
"It's not good! It's not manly! Huo Xuanqing looked disgusted, "The men of the Huo family are all military generals, he has to learn from the literati, and he has a headache when he listens to it." β
Huo Yubai smiled, "It's good if the second brother likes it." β
Huo Lingkai looked up at Huo Yubai, "Second sister, can I be a civil official in the future?" β
"Of course you can, but yes, you also have to learn this martial arts well, after all, you are from the General's Mansion, if you don't know martial arts, the world will laugh at your uncle." Huo Yubai said.
"I have never slacked off in civil and military affairs, but the third and fourth sisters always hit me."
Huo Yubai smiled and glanced at Huo Jiayan and Huo Xuanqing, "This is your mistake, the second brother is the son of a military general, if he is brilliant, wouldn't it be as icing on the cake?" β
Huo Jiayan and Huo Xuanqing stuck out their tongues at the same time.
"We're just joking, it's not a blow, it's not that we're worried about the younger brother's emphasis on literature and light on martial arts."
"I won't." Huo Lingkai said.
Huo Yubai smiled, "If you like to do something, do it seriously, and the second sister will support you." β
Huo Lingkai smiled innocently, "Thank you, second sister." β
"Fool!" Huo Jiayan and Huo Xuanqing disliked their faces, and their pretty faces had exactly the same expressions.
Huo Yubai couldn't help laughing, it was also quite interesting for sisters and brothers to bury each other.
"Second sister, tell you personally." Huo Xuanqing hesitated to speak.
Huo Yubai looked at her, "What? β
"It's your former fiancΓ©, I mention him, you must not be sad."
Huo Yubai smiled lightly, "No, it's all over." β
Huo Xuanqing was a little relieved, "The prince of the royal prince has married a wife, but he is not married to Miss Tang." He didn't go to greet his relatives, and the bride became the laughing stock of Quan Shengjing. β
Huo Yu's white eyes darkened, "What about the second prince of the Royal Prince's Mansion?" Have you got a wife? β
"Married! It was not the Tang family that married the young lady, and like the prince of the world, she did not go to greet her relatives, let alone accompany the bride to return to the door for three dynasties.
Because of the marriage in the Royal Prince's Mansion, the eldest lady of the Nie family committed suicide, the second sister, your reputation is bad, and the current princess and the second young grandmother are also unhappy.
It's bad luck to marry their family!
It's a shame that the second sister didn't get married! β
Huo Yubai's heart was cold, the eldest lady of the Nie family committed suicide? It was obviously murder, and he was poisoned to death.
She still remembered how she felt at that time, her internal organs were like fire, and she couldn't scream.
It was not that he died all at once, but that his body could not move, he was conscious, and he was tortured by poison for a long time before dying in pain.
