Zhou stayed on the boat for most of the day. She was speechless, but she felt happy just looking at Huo Xi and Huo Nian.
I missed my meal in a blink of an eye.
Huo Xi wanted to keep her on the boat for dinner, but Yang and Huo Erhuai insisted on going to the city to find a restaurant. Zhou refused, so she took Huo Xi by one hand and Huo Nian by the other, and the group went to the city to find a restaurant.
Only Yang Fu was left to guard the ship.
Everyone had a good meal in the restaurant. Zhou didn't eat much. After taking one bite, he glanced at Huo Xi and Huo Nian. Seeing that Huo Nian was eating well and enjoying the meal, he kept smiling on his face.
After paying the bill and leaving the restaurant, the group was going to sit in the small courtyard where Zhou lived. At the door, Huo Erhuai was stopped by someone.
When he looked over, he saw a young master in rich clothes calling him across the street.
Huo Erhuai was stunned. When did he know such a wealthy young master?
"Uncle Huo." The young master called him and walked this way.
The whole family looked at him.
Huo Xi only glanced at him, her heart skipped a beat, and she shrank away from Zhou.
Seeing her like this, Mrs. Zhou hurriedly stood in front of Huo Xi.
I felt a little uneasy, wondering if it was someone I knew in the past. I was thinking about which alley I should take the young lady to, and then I went to see Huo Nian, trying to pull him away.
Unexpectedly, the child walked up to his adoptive father and stared straight at the visitor with his little face raised.
"Uncle Huo, I didn't expect to see you here." The young master greeted Huo Erhuai and nodded to Yang.
Who is this? Call him Uncle Huo.
Huo Erhuai's head was numb and he couldn't recognize the other person, so he had to respond and secretly looked at Huo Xi. After the young master said hello, he also leaned half of his body to look at Huo Xi.
Seeing that Zhou was blocking her, he glanced at her face and walked directly towards Huo Xi.
"Ha, you're still hiding. When you see my brother and don't want to say hello, you're still hiding? We haven't seen him for a few years, but he's become as shy as a little lady!"
What a ghost! Huo Xi rolled her eyes secretly.
Leng Buding was taken out from behind Zhou, and Huo Xi could only look up at him with a smile on her face.
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she had no choice but to explain: "Father, mother, this is the young master of the Gong family who gave our family a load of salted fish that year."
"Little Gong Ziyi, I have met Aunt Huo and Uncle Huo. I haven't seen you for several years, but you are getting younger and younger as you live." Gong Ziyi joked about Huo Erhuai.
"Yeah, it's you!"
Huo Erhuai was a little surprised and recognized him.
When Yang heard that the load of refined salt was actually given by the young master in front of her, she immediately smiled at him: "Are you the young master Gong? Oh, thank you so much, Mr. Gong, for that load of... salted fish."
, my family has been eating for a long time.”
Being pulled by Huo Xi, Yang's tongue stumbled and she immediately changed her words.
Gong Ziyi saw Huo Xi's little move and raised his eyebrows at her.
He turned around and smiled brightly at Huo Erhuai and Yang: "Uncle Huo and Aunt Huo, just call me Ziyi. Your Huo Xi and I are brothers of the opposite sex who have worshiped the gods from all over the world. We are a family."
Ah? Brothers of the opposite sex?
Everyone was confused and looked at Huo Xi.
Mrs. Zhou also looked at Huo Xi and felt a pain in her heart when she saw that she was a well-behaved young lady from an aristocratic family, but she was dressed like a boy. Looking at Sister Ning's ears, her earlobes were smooth and clean, and her ears had not been pierced yet.
I want to cry even more.
If the young lady were still alive, how could she not have her ears pierced yet?
Which family's girl hasn't had her ears pierced since she was a child?
When Sister Ning was a child, she was afraid of pain, so the young lady said that she would wait until she was older before pricking her. However, she would never have the chance again.
Thinking of old things, I couldn't help but raise my sleeves and press them on my eyes.
Huo Xi patted her comfortingly and glanced at Gong Ziyi. Just as she was about to speak, Huo Nian, the brat, got in front of her.
"Then you are my brother too? I..." Before sister could say the word, Huo Xi pulled her.
Pi Xiaozi looked at her, blinking and blinking, unsure of the situation.
Huo Xi blinked at him, and Pi Xiaozi was stunned. He glanced at his sister and immediately understood, he was familiar with this.
He turned to Gong Ziyi with a smile on his face: "Then I have two brothers? Your surname is Gong, so I'll call you Brother Gong."
Gong Ziyi burst out laughing. Seeing how cute Huo Nian was, he picked him up, lifted him high, and then put him down.
"Okay, let's call him Brother Gong. Your brother and I are brothers of the opposite sex, and of course you are also my brother." After saying that, he looked at his body and pulled off a jade pendant hanging from his waist. "Here, Brother Gong, here it is."
Your greeting gift."
Huo Nian glanced at his sister and saw that she had no objection. He took it with his little hand and thanked him happily: "Thank you, Brother Gong!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Yang took the jade pendant in her hand and looked at her mother blankly.
"This is too valuable. He is still young and can't take it."
"It's okay, it's just a jade pendant. I still have many such pendants for my brother to play with." Gong Ziyi refused to take it and pushed it back with his hand.
Pi Xiaozi was so happy that he took the jade pendant from Yang's hand, put it in his arms, and patted it with a smile.
Seeing how cute he was, Gong Ziyi touched his head and asked, "What's your name?"
Pi Xiaozi raised a very sincere smile: "My name is Huo Nian. Thank you Brother Gong for sending me the jade pendant. I will keep it well."
"Hahaha, okay, keep it well." She stroked his head again, so cute.
A few years ago, I thought Huo Xi was cuter than his brothers. Now that I saw Huo Nian, he was actually cuter than Huo Xi four years ago. As expected of the two brothers, they were both equally lovable.
Walking up to Huo Xi, she wanted to put her hand on his shoulder, but Zhou quickly brushed it away with his quick eyes.
Gong Ziyi was stunned and looked at her.
Huo Xi was afraid that he would blame the nanny, so she stood in front of the nanny and glared at him: "This is on the street."
What happened on the street? Gong Ziyi glared at him.
Why are we so unfamiliar after not seeing each other for several years? I decided to catch up with this brother of the opposite sex, "When did you arrive in Songjiang? When will you go back?"
"It may take a few more days."
"Please stay a few more days. My brother has just arrived. My two brothers haven't seen each other for several years. It's just a good time to catch up on old times."
People were coming and going, so Huo Xi didn't want to block the door of the restaurant to say hello to him, so he nodded: "Okay, we have something to do today, and my uncle and I will go see you tomorrow."
"Your uncle is here too?"
When Huo Xi nodded, he told Huo Xi where he lived: "Then let's see you tomorrow."
Huo Xi nodded to him and left with the nanny and others.
On the second floor of the restaurant across the street, Mu Yan watched this scene quietly.
"At first glance, that person came from a wealthy family. I didn't expect that Madam Huo knows a lot of people." Li Yi looked at Gong Ziyi.
Kan Er also stared at the other person for a long time and said, "I don't know who comes from this family. He is dignified and unruly, and has a dignified appearance."
Mu Yan glanced at him lightly.
"But it's still worse than the young master." Kan Er immediately changed his words with a smile.
Seeing that the two groups of people downstairs had separated, Mu Yan looked back.
Li Yi also looked away and said to Mu Yan: "Master, we have been waiting in Songjiang for several days. Why haven't the madam and the princess arrived yet? According to the letter, they should have arrived long ago."
"Will something happen?" When it came to business, Kan Er also became serious.
Mu Yan was silent, "They have a lot of people with them. The closer they are to the capital, the fewer bandits there will be, so it should be no problem."
Li Yiyi nodded: "Princess Chang Ning has been in poor health these years. I don't know if it was delayed because of this reason."
While the three masters and servants were talking, a servant came to report that the madam and her party had arrived outside Songjiang City.
