Chapter 18 Matchmaker

Huo Xi suddenly got hold of these martial arts secrets, which were family heirlooms. Huo Xi was a little suspicious of the origin of these books.

She didn't dare to say anything like poking at other people's ancestral graves, for fear that the stingy young master would offend her.

"Don't worry, they are all obtained legitimately, don't worry about it. But these are given to Master Huo by my young master. The explanation is only for Master Huo to see and don't spread it out."

After Kan Er said this, Huo Xi felt relieved and asked two maids to deliver the book to Huo Nian.

Thinking of Dong Chuxue, I thought for a moment, "Can I ask your young master for a favor?"

"Miss Huo, just say it."

Huo Xi asked Ta Yue to inquire about the news. Chu Xue was really not doing well in the Dong family. The Sheng family was the concubine and gave birth to three sons and two daughters. She had established a foothold in the second house. The Shao family was still there.

At that time, she seemed to be the mistress of the second room of the Dong family.

Now that the Shao family has gone, the eldest daughter Dong Chuxue is left standing in front of her daughter, blocking her daughter's way. Chuxue is displeased with everything. I wish she would die in the family temple.

But Dong Chuxue didn't go with the Shaw family. A living person couldn't put her in a urine bucket, right. She could only find someone to send her away far away.

The news that Ta Yue learned from her was that the Sheng family planned to betroth her to a widower who was old enough to be her father. He would have seven or eight concubines in the house and ten children, and she would be her mother as soon as he passed away.

Huo Xijie was shocked. If the master and servant in Zhuangzi heard this, they would probably not want to live anymore.

Huo Xi told Kan Er about Dong Chuxue's situation, "I can't just watch her fall into the hot bed. I don't know any suitable family. Can you ask your young master to help her talk about it?"

Marriage?"

"Ah, let my young master arrange a marriage for her?"

Kan Er was shocked. Does his young master still have the qualifications to be a matchmaker?

Huo Xi touched her nose sarcastically, "Your young master knows more people than me, right? And he also went to Annan with him. There are only a few singles in the 200,000-strong army? Not many of you."

A high-quality man that the young man in the family likes? The kind who is well-matched?"

Kan Er was a little proud, "Of course my young master knows a lot of people. More than half of the 200,000 troops are singles."

Huo Xi clapped her hands and said, "Look, isn't this the case? Let your young master help pick a few, preferably those with a slightly higher family background than the Dong family, or those with some status that the Dong family dare not

Rejected. Just right."

"Miss Huo, your request is a bit difficult."

Kan Er is also kind-hearted and wants to help the poor girl from the Dong family, but this requires someone with a high family status and status, who cannot be manipulated by the Dong family. It is best for her husband's family not to bully the girl.

of.

"I know it may be a bit difficult, but you can't watch her come out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's den, right? Then she might as well twist her hair and become a nun in the nunnery. But, can you bear to have her escape into Buddhism at such a young age?"

Kaner shook his head repeatedly.

"That's right. I can't bear it. Besides, maybe your young master doesn't find it difficult? Your young master is so capable, right?"

Seeing that Kan Er's expression was relaxed and he looked like his young master was at his best, he continued: "Just tell your young master to either do me this favor or return my jade pendant to me. It is a priceless treasure."

"Ah, my young master also took your jade pendant?"

Or a priceless treasure? Why didn't he know? Is this the kind of person the young master turns out to be?

Seeing Huo Xi nodding, she hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll help you tell the young master."

Just as he was about to leave, Huo Nian ran over with excitement on his face, "Brother Kan, Brother Kan!"

"Master Huo."

Kan Er also watched this child grow up. He was happy to see him healthy and touched his head, "Why are you running in such a hurry?"

"Brother Kan Er, thank you for sending me those marksmanship books. I like them so much! Please help me say thank you to Brother Mu."

Huo Nian patted his chest, "I put Brother Mu in my heart, and I will remember him forever!"

Kan Er had an aunt's smile on his face, as he liked such a sensible child.

Huo Nian handed Kan Er a booklet: "Also, this is a travel diary I wrote myself. I am still sorting it out. You can show it to Brother Mu first. When I finish sorting it out and adding pictures, I will give him an updated copy.

OK!"

Kan Er took it and flipped through a few pages, and was quickly attracted by the children's words inside. After reading two pages, he hurriedly closed it, "Master Huo can write travel notes. Okay, I will show it to my young master right now."

"

He touched his head, turned around and left.

"Sister, Brother Mu is such a good person!" What a great person!

Huo Xi was also full of gratitude to him and warned: "Your brother Mu spent a lot of effort to find those books. You must cherish them and not expose them to avoid unnecessary trouble."

"Nian'er understands. I'll study it myself. If I don't understand, I'll ask Zhufeng and Tayue to teach me."

"Okay." Thinking of his travel notes, he asked him, "Is your picture ready yet?"

It turned out that Huo Nian took the travel diary to school and showed it to Fang Qi and Gu Yu, a few friends. As a result, all the classmates rushed to read it. Huo Nian felt sorry for the students who could not travel far away. Seeing that they kept asking, he asked

Those travel notes were compiled into a booklet for students to read.

Huo Xi gave him instructions and asked him to add pictures of the scenery along the way, interesting people he saw, stories, food, and folk customs, and insert them into the travel notes. Compared with reading long paragraphs of text, the children were more interested in reading.

I like reading travel notes with vivid pictures.

While asking him to ask Qin Changzhi to draw pictures, he also bought a lot of travel notes for him to read. This aroused Huo Nian's great interest, and he has been doing this since he came back.

Huo Xi then thought of the "Book of Encouragement" written by Queen Xu that was printed and distributed by Emperor Yongkang to all students in various schools after Queen Xu's death, and said: "Don't you know the book of advice by heart? See which ones can be used.

Yes, you can quote scriptures and put them in your travel notes."

Huo Xi planned to ask him to make this first travel diary of his life taller and taller, so that he might be able to use it in the future. It had nothing, so why not build a good reputation? For him, it might be useful in the future.

Huo Nian's eyes lit up: "Okay, Nian'er, let's do it now!" He ran away quickly. He didn't know his sister's intention, but he just thought it was interesting.

After Kan Er finished his report, Mu Yan laughed angrily: "You look like a matchmaker?"

Not only Kan Er, but also Li Yi couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Kan Er was afraid that the young master would scold him, so he took over the matter without asking the young master. He glanced at Li Yi, hoping he would give him an idea, but Li Yi suppressed his laughter and didn't even wink at him.

"Uh... doesn't this prove that Miss Huo trusts and respects the young master? Look, young master, there are millions of people in the capital, right? Then, why didn't Miss Huo find someone else but the young master? You don't have the ability, young master?"

Right?"

Mu Yan looked at him jokingly and raised his eyebrows at him. You continued.

Kan Er suddenly became speechless.

Her mind was racing, and she remembered what Miss Huo said about the young master taking her jade pendant, and clapped her hands: "Master, do you want to take Miss Huo's priceless jade pendant? Miss Huo said, either you return the jade pendant, or you help

She is busy."

"You're still threatening me?"
