Chapter 42 What You Do, I Don't Like It
The school celebration was lively on the hot search for two more days, and the popularity gradually went down.
Approaching the Mid-Autumn Festival, Huo Huaizhou went back to his old house.
The old house of the Huo family is located on the outskirts of Haizhou, where the Huo family has lived for generations.
The house is huge.
The small pavilion is a beautiful high-rise building, the relief carvings in the gallery are lifelike, and the antique courtyards of all sizes are located in the old mansion, with pavilions and pavilions, carved beams and painted columns, which are lofty and magnificent.
Huo Huaizhou, as the head of the Huo family, although he did not live in the old mansion as usual, he would come back once a month.
He doesn't live here, but he knows everything about the house.
The people in the old mansion knew early in the morning that he was coming back today, and the housekeeper Li Yongjiang had been waiting outside the house for a long time, and when he saw him walking quickly, he lowered his head slightly and shouted: "Mr. Huo." ”
Huo Huaizhou's expression was gloomy: "Where is my mother?" ”
"Madame is listening to the play in Luming Tower." Li Yongjiang said, "She asked you to go to her when you come back." ”
"Hmm."
There were servants coming and going in the house, and after seeing him, they all stopped and bowed their heads to call him the head of the house, and the air was filled with a fragrance of osmanthus flowers.
Li Yongjiang followed his line of sight: "Mr. Huo? ”
Huo Huaizhou's eyes were as black as ink, plain and waveless: "Ask someone to pick some fresh osmanthus." ”
Although he didn't say it carefully, Li Yongjiang knew what he was going to do, and bowed his head slightly: "Okay, sir." ”
The Huo family's power stretched to an unimaginable place.
Therefore, the girl brought back by the head of the family, of course, could not escape the investigation and eyeliner of the old house.
The old mansion knows everything about Jiang Wanzhi, and knows her itinerary well, some time ago she and her husband went to her grandmother's house to eat osmanthus cake, and the old mansion also knows everything.
The head of the family doesn't like it, these can't be put on the surface, they can only be done behind the scenes.
Most of the people in the old mansion are feudal, and their cognition is stuck in the past, thinking that celebrities are just a trick played by the chaebol, and they will sell themselves if they give some money, they can't look down on the play, and they also think that the play can't be on the stage, and they can't have any connection with the Huo family.
Although Li Yongjiang doesn't think so, he is in the old mansion, shackled, unable to express his true thoughts, and occasionally feels that the old mansion is depressed and suffocated, but there is nothing to be done.
The stereotypes are too deep, and it is difficult to get rid of them.
In the distance, I heard the sound of singing.
Huo Huaizhou walked into Luming Tower, many people were listening to the play, and when they saw him, they quickly stood up: "The head of the family." ”
At the table in the middle, a graceful and luxurious person in a cheongsam smiled and beckoned to him, she was Zhou Yun, Huo Huaizhou's mother, and the person who managed the old mansion when Huo Huaizhou was away.
"Huaizhou, come and sit."
Her voice was smiling, not as stern as usual, but like a mother who was happy that her son had come home.
Huo Huaizhou's expression was flat, and after sitting down, the others sat down one after another.
The servant poured him tea, the heat rose, and with the sound of opera in his ears, Huo Huaizhou took a sip of tea: "Mother looking for me?" ”
The tone is not like that of mother and son.
The drama overshadowed the voices of the two people, and only each other could hear them.
"What's going on with Huo Qi."
Huo Huaizhou was tepid: "Mother doesn't know." ”
The inside and outside of the old mansion can't escape her eyes.
The smile on Zhou Yun's face was even worse: "I know, you should have done this a long time ago." ”
But her smile narrowed slightly: "But I also heard another thing, that you are too reckless and impulsive. ”
The people around him didn't dare to make a sound, and in front of the two people who were actually in power, the atmosphere didn't dare to come out.
"The injury on Huo Qi's face was caused by you," Zhou Yun said, "It's still for that woman, you are the head of the Huo family, it's too reckless." ”
Huo Huaizhou's hand suddenly froze.
He raised his head, his eyes were keenly glowing with coldness, the air pressure around him was a little lower, and the air was mixed with coolness, cold like winter.
"Mother, your hand is too long."
He was warning, blaming her for putting all the eyeliner on his side.
The smile on Zhou Yun's face disappeared instantly: "I am your mother, everything I do is for your good, the Huo family has a great cause, do you know how many people are staring at you." ”
Huo Huaizhou sneered: "Is my mother worried about me, or is she worried that I will marry someone who you can't control and take away the Huo family's property?" ”
"You're going against me." Zhou Yun narrowed her eyes, "For that Jiang Wanzhi?" ”
The atmosphere suddenly became condensed, and the chill was awe-inspiring.
Huo Huaizhou put the cup on the table unhurriedly, obviously without any emotion, but it made people feel a clear coldness: "Mother should know that I am the head of the family and in charge of the Huo family." ”
When the words fell, they raised their eyes, word by word, full of a suppressed sense of oppression: "I don't like what you do." ”
His whole person was filled with unknown dangers, his eyes were dark like a deep pool, and the yin owl and endless abyss hidden behind his gentle and elegant body made Zhou Yun's heart lift slightly, and his hands tightened.
Huo Huaizhou stood up and looked at Zhou Yun condescendingly, his expression was as usual, plain: "I'll go first, don't disturb my mother to listen to the play." ”
There was silence around, and although I couldn't hear what the two people were saying, it didn't seem to be a good conversation.
There are no secrets in the house, and the estranged relationship between the head of the family and Zhou Yun has long been spread in private.
But there was an undercurrent between the two rulers, and they were not qualified or brave enough to inquire.
If you want to be protected by the Huo family, the less things you know, the better.
...
Huo Huaizhou returned to his mansion.
He sat in the living room on the first floor to rest, the maid served snacks and tea, and he took a book and looked down at it.
Li Yongjiang walked in, he has been a housekeeper in the old mansion for nearly 30 years, knowing that there are many people living in the house, there are many rights and wrongs, people's hearts are separated from the belly, and on the surface it seems to be a family, but in fact, he is deceitful and unscrupulous for his own interests, full of selfish desires and greed without limits.
He had a good relationship with Huo Huaizhou when he was young, unlike ordinary housekeepers who treated their masters, and could occasionally say a few words in front of him.
Huo Huaizhou didn't look up, he knew who the person who came, and his voice was flat: "What's wrong." ”
"I heard that Madame seems to have chosen a few girls for you, and recently I want to invite you to the house to see each person's temperament, and choose the best."
Li Yongjiang wanted to speak and stopped, and hesitated for a while: "So I think if you have a girl you like in your heart, bring it back to the old mansion to show your family as soon as possible, and Madame knows your attitude, and may not insist on going your own way." ”
He was referring to Jiang Wanzhi.
The whole old mansion knew that he was very protective of people, but they were very surprised why he didn't bring people back to the old mansion.
After all, the old mansion is the foundation of the entire Huo family.
