When Mrs. Wang saw that Mr. Wu refused to listen to her dissuasion and wanted to order someone to take action, she looked worried.
Idiot, what kind of authority do you show here? When you are dealing with a commoner, when can you not make up for it?
But it's not good to try to tear her down now and let others see her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's jokes.
Just as Wu was about to order people to arrest Huo Nian, the three brothers Zhang Fu arrived and stopped her.
"What are you doing?" Zhang Fu shouted in a low voice.
The servant explained the situation, Zhang Fu glared at Zhang Jie, and then looked at the boy who had the conflict with his son.
At this glance, he met Huo Nian's surprised eyes, which made him a little surprised.
"uncle?"
Yang and Huo Erhuai who were holding him heard him calling uncle and lowered their heads to look at him. Zhang Fu was also a little surprised when they saw Huo Nian murmuring to him and shook his head vaguely at him.
Huo Nian understood.
If the sister shook her head at him, Nian'er would know that the sister didn't want others to know that she was the sister, so he would call her brother. The uncle shook his head, because he didn't want others to know that they knew each other, and Huo Nian pursed his lips.
Zhang Fu raised the corner of his mouth and said that the child was smart.
Staring at Zhang Jie: "It's obvious that you did something wrong. You still want to monopolize this mountain rock, and you want to drive people down arrogantly. Now you want your younger brother to tell you?"
Seeing Zhang Jie lowering his head, Zhang Fu looked at Wu again, frowning.
Seeing that there were so many people watching, and not being able to scold my wife and children in public, I had no choice but to apologize to Yang and Huo Erhuai, saying that my children were ignorant.
When Huo Erhuai and Yang saw that the other person had a higher status than themselves, they apologized to themselves and felt a little uncomfortable. They hurriedly waved their hands to him, saying that it was just a child's play, so don't worry about it. After that, they went to tease Huo Nian.
Huo Nian glanced at Zhang Jie and said to Zhang Fu: "It's my fault. I shouldn't push my brother."
That's all.
When Huo Xi, Yang Fu and others hurried over, Zhang Fu was turning to leave with his family.
When Huo Xi saw it was Zhang Fu, he was stunned and stared at him intently.
Zhang Fu seemed to feel something and cast his eyes towards her.
Huo Xi saw that he was followed by Wu and others, Zhang Jie, Zhang Biyao and others were surrounding him. The whole family looked harmonious and happy. He clenched his fists tightly and narrowed his eyes coldly.
Zhang Fu felt a little strange, but he didn't think much about it and quickly looked away. Zhang Fu's third brother, Zhang Fu, on the other hand, took a deep look at Huo Xi.
Everyone in the Zhang family left in a hurry.
"Sister!" Huo Nian saw Huo Xi and hurriedly ran over and hugged her.
Huo Xi faced his luck: "Didn't I tell you that you should avoid people with higher status than yourself? If you can't avoid it, then don't have conflicts? Are you not smart? My sister told you
If so, you didn’t even pay attention to a word of it, right?”
Huo Nian was stunned when he heard his sister's obviously angry words.
He looked up at her with a look of grievance on his face and pursed his lips.
"Last time you had a conflict with him in the inner city, did my sister tell you to avoid these noble people? Didn't you promise well? How long has it been before you forgot again?"
In front of Huo Xi's eyes, Zhang Fu's family, with his wife, concubines and children surrounding him, walking affectionately together, made him feel inexplicably angry.
She didn't want Huo Nian to meet them. If Wu knew that Huo Nian was still alive, she would definitely not let him go.
It is a hereditary title. As long as the Wei Dynasty does not fall, the descendants of the Wu family will inherit the title of Marquis of Xincheng.
Not only did Zhang Fu receive a hereditary title that would allow him to retire with the country, but he was also given an iron certificate of an elixir. Except for treason, he could not forgive other capital crimes.
Will Wu give up this title?
Huo Nian didn't expect that he had to apologize to someone even though he had done nothing wrong, and that person was actually his uncle's son. He felt very aggrieved.
Now that I was scolded by my sister again, I pursed my lips at first, and then slowly the more I thought about it, the more I felt wronged, and the little golden beans fell out.
Seeing him grabbing the clothes around her waist, not crying, but silently shedding tears of grievance, Huo Xi also felt distressed, but unless he taught this kid a lesson, he would not compromise as long as he thought he was right.
I don't know whether my status is high or low.
Huo Xi was determined not to coax him and ignore him.
Yang, Huo Erhuai and others were all shocked. They had never seen Xi'er scolding Nian'er like this. She usually loved Nian'er very much, but now she scolded Huo Nian mercilessly in front of so many people.
Seeing that Nian'er looked aggrieved and didn't dare to cry loudly, Yang and Huo Erhuai were heartbroken.
Take the person into your arms and comfort them.
As soon as Huo Nian arrived in Yang's arms, she still pursed her lips and did not cry, but more and more golden beans dropped. Huo Erhuai, Yang's Zou Ainai and others were twitching with pain and hurriedly trying to comfort her.
From a high place on the other side, Mu Yan watched this scene quietly.
Boy, remember your sister’s words. When you are not as strong as your opponent, you must learn to avoid their sharp edges and show weakness. Otherwise, you will be pushed into the mud and you will not even have a chance to stand up.
Huo Xi kept a cold face all the way and returned to the house in Qionghua Lane with everyone without saying a word to Huo Nian.
At dinner time, Kan Er called her out.
Mu Yan handed her a box.
There were eight thousand taels of silver notes inside, and a waist fan. The workmanship was better than the one Huo Xi gave him. It also had a plum blossom needle hidden in the front and a sharp blade hidden in the back.
"Sent to me?"
Mu Yan nodded: "I'm here to defend you. But don't use it lightly. You don't have any skills. Once you use it, it will anger the other party even more, leaving you with no room for maneuver."
"Don't worry, I won't use it unless absolutely necessary. Thank you."
When Huo Xi made the waist fan for Mu Yan, she didn't think about getting one for herself, but because she was worried about the money, and because she didn't think it was necessary, she didn't do it.
"This bank note?"
"It's for settling your last batch of goods, and the village in Jiangjun Mountain that I gave you before is also yours."
"Give me your village in Jiangjun Mountain?" Huo Xi couldn't believe it.
Mu Yan nodded: "If you made such a big noise in my village, you wouldn't just give up like that. The people in my village are honest and obedient, and no one dares to say anything. Your village is a sieve, and you are using it like a sieve."
Zhuangtou was sent out, and he was sent away, and his brother and his family were left there. How dare you do something hidden there?"
Huo Xi was stunned. He had never thought of this problem before, but now that he said this, he would not dare to make sugar there in the future.
"Did you really give that Zhuangzi to me?"
"It's not for you, it's for resale to you. I deducted the money from the payment, and I advise you not to change the name for the time being. It won't do you any good."
Huo Xi thought for a while and nodded: "Can Ji Laozhuang and the others listen to me?"
"If they listen to me, they will naturally listen to you."
Uh... It's easy for people to misunderstand what I said. You are not me, and I am not you.
But thinking that the other party is more capable than me, if something happens in the future, just blame it on him...
Mu Yan glanced at her and guessed what she was thinking, and simply said: "If you don't trust what you are doing in your Zhuangzi, just let Ji Laozhuang do it. The people there are more loyal than the people in your Zhuangzi.
"
Huo Xi looked at him for a long time and felt that he should be able to believe what he said.
He nodded and closed the box. Then he said, "Please give me a message to Ping Niang and ask her to help me make an appointment with Wu Youcai, okay?"
