Chapter 178: Helplessness

Seeing that Huo Zhi and Huo Rong did not argue with Huo Yuan, Huo Sijin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She didn't want them to quarrel like this, the guests invited by Xifu today were not only her and Huo Yuan, but also the female relatives who were good friends with the third aunt and the fourth grandmother and the fifth grandmother.

She came with Huo Yuan, Huo Yuan was talked about, and her reputation would be affected.

It's just that Huo Zhi and Huo Rong are heartless, and they have a good impression of Huo Sijin, so they have to show it.

The two of them held Huo Sijin's hand one by one, talking and laughing, and put Huo Yuan aside.

Huo Sijin secretly screamed that it was not good, and was about to find an excuse to get rid of Huo Zhi and Huo Rong, when there was a voice of greetings, it was the old lady of the district who walked into the flower hall with the support of the third aunt and grandmother.

Everyone hurriedly got up and said hello to Mrs. Ou, Huo Zhi and Huo Rong ran to Mrs. Ou's side, chattering non-stop, Huo Sijin hurriedly took advantage of this opportunity to sit next to Huo Yuan.

Huo Yuan threw a knife over and said coldly: "Are you willing to come back?" ”

It's just going from one table to another.

Huo Si hurriedly laughed, and pushed the autumn pear cut into crescent moon on the table in front of Huo Yuan: "Auntie, you taste it, this autumn pear is very fresh." ”

Huo Yuan looked at her coldly, didn't speak for a long time, and only took a while to pick up a piece of autumn pear with a silver fork and put it in his mouth.

Huo Sijin put her mind at ease, and then remembered what Mama Yan said to her, Old Madam Feng is only a stepfamily, there are no heirs under her knees, only Huo Yuan has a daughter, and the reason why Old Madam Feng can still be in charge of the East Mansion now is only because the eldest lady has passed away, and the second lady is in office again, and the eldest brother has not yet married a wife.

If he succeeds Huo Jiang or marries his daughter-in-law, in this Eastern Mansion, Old Madam Feng is just a lonely old lady.

If Huo Yuan wasn't Huo Jiang's sister, she would just be an orphan girl who lost her father.

Whether it is Mrs. Feng or Huo Yuan, their dignity is given by Huo Jiang.

And she, Huo Sijin, is Huo Jiang's daughter, no matter when, she is the eldest lady of Dongfu, her father is a second-grade university who used to be a pavilion elder, and she is a genuine famous lady.

Thinking of this, Huo Si's back straightened, glanced at Huo Yuan with the corner of his eye, and smiled coldly in his heart.

Mrs. Ou beckoned to her, she walked over with a smile and sat down next to Mrs. Ou.

Mrs. Ou asked her: "In a few days, it will be Mrs. Chai's 60th birthday, and your Sister Zhi'er and Mrs. Chai will clash with each other, so you and Sister Rong will accompany me." ”

Huo Si got up and responded, and Huo Zhi pouted exaggeratedly: "Where do you come from so much, you can't go if you are a cross-fero?" There are many people in this phase of Xiao, don't they all have to make a mistake? ”

The old lady of the district feigned anger and scolded with a smile: "Look at this little mouth, I don't know who it is, that Mrs. Chai feels sorry for you juniors, and is worried that she will overcome you, but you are wronged, isn't this cheap and believable?" ”

Huo Zhi took advantage of the situation to snuggle up in the arms of the old lady of the district, and said coquettishly: "The granddaughter is wronged, the granddaughter wants to eat the longevity peaches of Mrs. Chai's family." ”

"Okay, good", Mrs. Ou said to Huo Sijin and Huo Rong with a smile, "You two remember, when the time comes, steal two longevity immortals for her and come back, so that she can satisfy her hunger." ”

Everyone laughed, Mrs. Ou glanced at Huo Sijin, and then said with a smile: "There is still a war now, Mrs. Chai didn't want to be a birthday, but the children and grandchildren are filial, and they have to handle it for her no matter what. ”

Some of the people praised Mrs. Chai for cherishing her juniors and giving priority to state affairs, some said that the old lady's daughter-in-law and grandson were around her knees, and the family was lively, and some praised Huo Zhi for being blessed and able to win the favor of the elders.

In the laughter of the women, Huo Sijin felt like an outsider.

Mrs. Chai is the mother of Hao Yutong, who is ranked in the ninth secretary, and if there is someone in the cabinet next year, he will enter the cabinet with eight or nine times out of ten with his qualifications.

As far as she knew, Mrs. Feng had been at Hao's house for an invitation, but she didn't expect Mrs. Ou to have already received it.

Although the old lady of the district said that the Hao family just invited their relatives and the old ones, but this is not the case, but the old lady of the district and Mrs. Chai Tai do have an extraordinary relationship is true, Huo Zhi and Huo Rong have said that the Hao family was originally a well-off family, although they are not rich, they do not worry about food and clothing, but the year when Hao Yutong went to Beijing to catch the exam, the Hao family went to the water, although the person was fine, but the family's property and house were burned down. Hao's father lent Hao Yutong enough to make up enough to entangle, and let him go to Beijing to participate in the examination. Hao Yutong fell ill halfway through.

Huo Yan and the old lady of the district were still newlyweds at the time, and the two happened to live in the inn, and learned that there was a child who went to Beijing to catch the exam, and the money he brought was exhausted, and he couldn't even pay the house money, and the old lady of the district didn't say a word, so he asked Lang Zhong, after Hao Yutong recovered from his illness, Huo Yan not only paid him for the house, but also invited him to go on the road together, Hao Yutong followed the Huo couple to the capital, and wanted him to live in the Huo family, but Hao Yutong refused to live or die, Huo Yan was helpless, so he lent him a hundred taels of silver.

Later, Hao Yutong was admitted to the Jinshi, and then to the Shu Jishi, in the official career, the Hao family and the Huo family Xifu have been moving, after Mrs. Chai entered Beijing, the old lady of the district often went to visit, and now, the two families have been friends for 30 years.

It stands to reason that the Hao family sent an invitation to the Huo family's West Mansion, and should also send a copy to the Huo Family's East Mansion, the two families are their own families, and Huo Jiang is a second-class member, but over the years, there is only one widowed Mrs. Feng in the Huo Family's East Mansion, and there is not much movement with the female relatives in Beijing, and the relationship between the Hao family and the Huo Family's West Mansion is extraordinary, so he only gave the West Mansion an invitation without scruples.

Huo Sijin had already guessed that Old Madam Feng would lose her temper after hearing about it, and if she knew that she would accompany Old Madam Ou to Hao's house, there would be a bunch of cold words waiting for her.

Huo Sijin couldn't help laughing, she couldn't wait to leave Dongfu immediately, and she didn't want to go back. A step-grandmother who is not related by blood, a bitter aunt, a father who has only seen two or three sides, and an older brother who still doesn't know what he looks like!

Why isn't she the daughter of Huo Jiaxifu? If it is from Xifu, she only needs to follow the elders of the family to attend a few birthday banquets and full moon banquets, and occasionally show her female popularity and talent, so that she can have a good reputation.

How could it be like this, she took a lot of effort to let Yongji Temple give her a reputation, but because of a few words from the Queen Mother, she could no longer go to Yongji Temple, and now what she is most afraid of is that someone asks her about the Queen Mother's blue eyes.

Only she knows where she was appreciated by the Queen Mother, and she was clearly disliked by the Queen Mother.
