Chapter 89: The Gift
Hey? It seems that this little girl has a lot of opinions about her!
Li Cha turned over, tore off the tassel tassel on the tent and swept the face of the jade pendant, hid the tassel and closed his eyes with a secret smile.
"Is the ninth girl going to the room again?" The jade pendant who was swept awake sat up from the footbed, and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the nine girls of her family were sleeping steadily.
When the jade pendant lay back on the couch, Li Qia opened his eyes again.
The dream words of the jade pendant are right, she is about to be in time, and it will only be seven or eight days.
In this era, the little lady and the flute are the most important days.
However, in the previous life, the life of the original owner and the future has undergone earth-shaking changes. It was also a turning point in the destruction of their three-room family.
When it came to Ji Lu, she suddenly remembered her previous life, and her grandfather, Imperial Doctor Wei, who also held her in the palm of his hand, also had an accident during this time. He went wrong when he was treating Empress Zhonggong Wei and was dismissed.
But she pinched her fingers and calculated that according to the development of her previous life, Imperial Doctor Wei should have had an accident in the past two days, and after she and Lu, she returned to her hometown in Yuyang, and met water bandits on the road, and no one in the family survived.
But in this life, she has asked Grandma Li Jiu several times, and the answer she got is that her grandfather, Imperial Doctor Wei, is now dealing with ancestral property in her hometown Yuyang and has not returned, how can she diagnose the wrong disease for Empress Wei?
She thought about it and came to the conclusion that in this life, not everyone's fate will go to the original track.
There is only one thing, that is, her relationship with Huo Xiaoting, mourning!
That's it, I don't want to do it, anyway, it's two years before I get married.
Other little ladies in other families felt a kind of sleepless excitement when they thought of Huo Xiaoting and his prosperous beauty.
Only Li Cha, thinking of that ice shovel face, he felt a little more disgusted and a little sleepy.
She yawned, and this time she literally rolled over and fell asleep.
…………
On the other side, after Huo Xiaoting returned to the Shengguo Mansion, he went directly to Zhengfeng Hall to greet the old man and the old lady Huo.
In the main room, the second lady Zhou was waiting for the second old man to eat, holding chopsticks in her hand and putting vegetables into the old lady's plate.
"Ting'er is back." Seeing Huo Xiaoting walk in, Zhou smiled and said, "Sit down and eat." ”
Huo Xiaoting first respectfully greeted his grandfather and grandmother before answering Zhou's words, "Second aunt, my nephew has already eaten." ”
Ever since his father died on the battlefield, his mother has been living in the old Buddha all day long, as if she was invisible in this family. Therefore, the middle feed of the Huo family has always been taken care of by the Zhou family.
At this time, seeing that the old man Huo and the old lady had put down their chopsticks, Zhou continued: "Brother Ting'er came back just in time, and the second aunt is discussing something with you." ”
"What?"
"In a few days, it will be the ninth girl of the Li family, although your marriage will be two years later, it is inevitable to prepare a proper gift to send over."
Huo Xiaoting thought that he would stay away from the scourge when he returned home, but he really didn't expect to hear this name that gave him a headache again.
He subconsciously touched his purse, there was still a bead hidden there, and now it had become a hot potato.
"Brother Ting, what are you doing in your purse, is there not enough silver to spend?" The attentive old lady Tong looked at Zhou.
"Mother, this is wronged! Brother Ting is the future head of our Huo family, and his daughter-in-law has always been in accordance with the ...... Whoever issues the prescribed silver according to the law shall not be deducted. The Zhou family wanted to say that Huo Xiaoting was the prince, but when he thought that the title of the prince could not be mentioned in the Huo family, he swallowed it back.
Huo Yunjing, the former son of the Holy Kingdom, that is, Huo Xiaoting's father, died on the battlefield for the country fifteen years ago, and in the end he didn't even get his body back, which is the eternal pain of the Huo family.
After that, the Huo family had no more children. Even Huo Xiaoting was called Huo Xiaogong after he was crowned, and no one called him Huo Shizi, just to avoid the title of his father back then.
And the old prince also believes in his heart that the eldest son is the best heir of his Huo family, but he has not yet had time to inherit the position of the prince of the country, and from then on, only people are allowed to call him the old prince.
Huo Yunjing, although he died, has always lived in the hearts of three generations of the Huo family.
"It's good if you don't have it." The old lady Tong saw that her baby grandson had just touched her purse, and she was also anxious to wronged her daughter-in-law, "However, is Brother Ting'er suspicious of the silver shortage?" After speaking, he went to touch his purse, "Grandmother has here, and grandmother's is for you." ”
Zhou: "......" She just wanted to ask what kind of gift to Miss Li Jiu, which can also be used for eye medicine?
It is said that whoever is next to Li Jiu is unlucky, but it is so lethal without mentioning it, if someone marries in the future, will it be able to live? Zhou looked at Mrs. Tong aggrievedly.
Huo Xiaoting: "...... "Where is this!" It was the beads on his shoes that caused him to take the blame everywhere.
Old Master Huo: "......" turned his head to look at Mrs. Tong who was carrying her purse. Thanks to his strong enough determination to discipline his grandson strictly, otherwise, he would really be a loyal ancestor and defeat his grandson!
"Mother, the gift to Miss Li Jiu should be paid by the public, and Brother Ting'er doesn't have to pay for it." Zhou was busy playing the round.
"Yes, grandmother, my grandson has nothing to spend money on except at home or in the camp. Besides, grandmother forgot, now the grandson is also in the military department. Huo Xiaoting stepped forward and rearranged Mrs. Tong's purse and put it back in her hand.
Looking at my grandmother, who was becoming more and more mentally weak due to the grief of his father's death and the overwork of raising him, I felt a little uncomfortable for a while.
"That'...... Ting Ge'er, you see, what is the best thing to give? Zhou returned to that topic.
"Isn't it necessary to insert a hairpin, so let's send a red gold hairpin." As for whether she wears it or not, it's not something he can control.
"That's a good idea!" Zhou squinted and smiled, "It's both meaningful and decent." The second aunt immediately went to prepare. After saying that, he bowed to his in-laws and withdrew.
When Zhou left, Huo Xiaoting reported that he was going to Qingshan Camp for a few days.
Old Man Huo naturally agreed and was pleased, and Old Madam Tong gave a lot of instructions because she was reluctant.
Although Huo Xiaoting had heard these words countless times since he was a child, he still patiently stood by Mrs. Tong's side and listened to her, and then went back to Ganlutang to pack his clothes.
I was going to the military headquarters the next day to inform him, and I went to the Qingshan camp in the afternoon.
…………
By the time Li Qia rubbed his eyes and got up from the bed the next day, classes had already begun in the family studies.
Li Cha was not in a hurry, and packed up and went out with a book basket as before.
Since he has already promised that Wei Yiran wants to find Li Hua, it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, and one of the hidden dangers is solved.
It's just that there is no place to talk at home or in the genealogy, and Li Cha had an idea after thinking about it......
