Lin Mengya immediately apologized to Huo Xiao and followed the visitor.
At this moment, Huo Xiao was filled with bitterness.
He was really confused just now.
How can she think that just because she is similar to her lover, she can replace him?
He rubbed his forehead. It seemed that he had been under too much pressure recently, which caused him to have more random thoughts.
But just as he was about to leave, he was intercepted by Lan Gu who was returning.
"Young Master, the young lady said that she wants to see you alone."
He still had some impression of Lan Gu and knew that she was someone close to his mother, so he followed her.
The place where they met was a secluded forest. .??.
Fang Rao changed his clothes.
Except for the redness and swelling on her eyes, she could no longer be seen as the infatuated woman who was about to die for her lover just now.
The high bun is decorated with precious gemstone hair accessories.
Huo Xiao's eyes looked a little unnatural.
Fortunately, Fang Rao was still as loving and gentle to him as ever.
"Xiao'er, I'm leaving."
She smiled at Huo Xiao, a bit of sadness unconsciously revealed in her words.
Huo Xiao nodded.
"Then I wish you a safe journey."
He didn't feel the slightest bit reluctant to say goodbye, his attitude was just like saying goodbye to an ordinary friend.
Fang Rao felt a little guilty, but she had a reason to leave.
"I know you must still blame me in your heart, but Xiao'er, the only one I care about is you."
Huo Xiao chose to remain silent.
Fang Rao couldn't help but sigh.
She knew her child best. Every time she left in a hurry, Xiaoer would keep her mouth shut like this, not even looking at her silent protest.
She reached out and touched Huo Xiao's cheek.
"Mom never wants to leave you, but Xiao'er, I have to keep the things your father left behind for you."
"My father left it?" Huo Xiao couldn't help but asked in surprise.
Fang Rao nodded and looked at his child with relief.
Huo Lang and her children finally grew up.
"Back then, your grandfather wanted to revitalize the Fang family and put my marriage up for sale. But your father and grandfather used the Huo family's ancestral property to marry me back. Who knew that this was just a conspiracy.
"
Fang Rao's face turned cold when he mentioned his family.
She and Huo Lang had known each other for a long time, and they were originally in love but not polite, and they didn't do anything that crossed the line.
Unexpectedly, her father actually did many shameless things after seeing the profit.
In the end, Huo Lang had no choice but to spend everything he had in order to marry her.
She thought she could marry Huo Lang smoothly, but she didn't know that this was all the result of the Fang family's attempt to seize the Huo family's property. A trap set!
Now that she has learned that the Huo family was wiped out, she can roughly guess the truth about some things that happened back then.
She must avenge this revenge!
"Does the Huo family still have ancestral property?"
Huo Xiao was not satisfied with this.
After being rescued by Uncle Liu, he relied on selling the Huo family's wealth to recruit troops and gain a firm foothold among the bandits.
However, Uncle Liu did not mention the ancestral property.
"Of course!"
Fang Rao was already full of pride when he mentioned this matter.
"The Huo family had a good reputation and status at the time. Even the Fang family at the time had reached a higher level."
"but."
Her expression suddenly became extremely serious.
"I once heard your grandfather mention that your grandfather was not the only one who wanted to deal with the Huo family. There were even more powerful people behind him. Xiao'er, mother doesn't care about life or death, nor do I care about those external things. I just
I hope you can live well. If you don’t want those things, my mother will destroy them after taking revenge. Then, she will live outside with you."
Fang Rao has already made his attitude clear to his son.
Huo Xiao was stunned for a while and did not come back to his senses.
In fact, he had never thought about the things Fang Rao said before.
But the extermination of the Huo family is obviously inseparable from these things.
Thinking of the firmness in his mother's tone, he couldn't help but feel worried.
"You'd better not go back. I'll take back the Huo family's things. You'd better be good and don't take risks."
"Xiao'er, don't worry."
Hearing his son's concern, Fang Rao felt that his whole body was full of strength.
"Over the years, I am no longer the same person I used to be. Among this ancient clan, I can also protect you. Don't worry, mother will be careful."
If she hadn't secretly developed a lot of power, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to help the child this time.
Thinking of this, she became more determined in her thoughts.
She gently tidied Huo Xiao's clothes. She was also reluctant to let go of the child.
"You have to take good care of yourself alone. By the way, do you like that palace girl?"
Huo Xiao was stunned for a moment, then denied with a somewhat unnatural expression, "What are you talking about? Miss Gong and I are just friends."
"Friend? I thought your father was my confidant at first, but later on, didn't I have you too?"
Fang Rao teased him kindly, but still grabbed his hand and said seriously, "I like that girl too, she is good-looking and a great person. I also heard that she has superb medical skills."
, it’s really rare. If you like it, hurry up so that others don’t get there first.”
The son is more like his mother.
The child's reaction allowed Fang Rao, the mother-in-law, to immediately see through her son's thoughts.
But Huo Xiao said with some regret, "There is no chance anymore. The man you met with a few days ago is her husband. Okay, you still have to protect yourself after you go back. I will send someone to contact you,
If you need help with anything, just ask."
Fang Rao was also quite surprised.
But when you think about it, you know that it would be strange for such a good girl to be single.
Fortunately, my son's conditions are also very good, so he won't worry about finding a wife in the future.
She responded contentedly.
If Lan Gu hadn't come over and urged him several times, Fang Rao would have chatted with him until the early morning of the next day.
"Xiao'er!"
Fang Rao held back his tears and tried his best to smile at him.
"When you understand this matter, you can take me to see your father, okay?"
Her attitude was very humble.
Huo Xiao felt his eyes sore inexplicably.
"good."
Fang Rao showed a surprised smile, and then slowly widened it.
Huo Xiao returned to the camp with complicated thoughts.
But as soon as he entered the door, he saw Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu packing their things.
Frowning, he went over to find someone.
In the tent, Lin Mengya and Qinghu were organizing her medicinal materials in an orderly manner.
"Miss Gong, are you leaving?"
Lin Mengya looked up and saw Huo Xiao.
She nodded, lowered her head and continued to clean up, while answering his questions.
"Our people have spread the news that the situation with the Sheng family has been discovered. Now the people from the Presbyterian Church are tracking down all the families that have anything to do with the Sheng family."
Huo Xiao also heard her mention the Sheng family's affairs, but he didn't know why they were leaving in such a hurry.
"Doesn't the matter of the Sheng family have nothing to do with you?"
"Originally, it didn't matter, but Zhao Kai died."
She dropped a bombshell.
Huo Xiao was also full of doubts.
"Didn't Zhao Mace be taken away by your people?"
He suddenly reacted.
"So, they believe that you killed Zhao Mace, and they also believe that you did what happened to the Sheng family?"
Lin Mengya sighed.
It's really a bad move.
Originally, his people had sent Zhao Mace directly back to the Zhao family.
But for some reason, just one night Soon, it was reported that Zhao Kai died tragically at home, and there was evidence pointing to them at the scene.
If Lin Mengya hadn't been careful and left several secret conversations around the Sheng family to find out the news, I'm afraid they would have been caught off guard this time.
Moreover, the so-called Zhao Mace's confession that she left behind before cannot be produced at all now.
Otherwise, everyone will think that they killed Zhao Mace to silence him in order to frame the Zhao family.
Things will only get worse for them.
"Then where are you going now?" Huo Xiao asked.
She was a little helpless when she mentioned this.
Now the only place for the ancient clan to stay is the Li family.
But going back now will undoubtedly bring trouble to the Li family, not to mention that they haven't found the Gan family yet.
"We can only take one step at a time and wait and see. I can't let you get in trouble, right?"
Without them being a drag, Aunt Fang and those others could still protect Huo Xiao and the others with their abilities.
But after Huo Xiao thought about it for a while, he took the initiative and said to her, "If you have no place to go, you might as well go to the Huo family's old house to stay first."
Lin Mengya stopped her hand and looked at the other party in surprise.
Huo Xiao smiled.
"The house is still there, but I haven't lived in it for many years, so it's a bit dilapidated. But I go back every year to clean it up, and because it's a haunted house, no one dares to occupy it, so it can be a cover-up."
In this way, it is indeed suitable for them to hide.
"Is it far? And there are many of us, is it convenient?"
The haunted house was the kind that was uninhabited all year round, and her heart was indeed moved.
Huo Xiao immediately found a piece of paper and drew a map for them.
"You keep walking in the southwest direction. You can get there in about two or three days. But it's very remote there. If you want to go there, you'd better prepare more food. After I send them out, I will find an opportunity to meet you.
"
Lin Mengya took a careful look at the map and found that it was really not far away. She immediately decided to go to the Huo family's old house.
"Are you coming back?" she asked.
Huo Xiao said softly, "Well, I have communicated with my mother. She said that the Fang family took a lot of things from our Huo family before, and asked me to get them back. Also, I think the Fang family and the Huo family will be wiped out.
The case must be related. Also, those fortune tellers who were previously detained by the Presbyterian Church.
As their boss, I must bring them all home."
From what he said, it seemed that he had reconciled with his mother.
Lin Mengya was truly happy for him.
"That's good, we'll wait for you to come back, and then we'll turn the ancient tribe upside down together!"
Huo Xiao looked at her and finally showed a confident smile.
