Huo Xi also didn't expect that Gan Yuan would hit her right.
When she bought Wu Chengye in Pingjiang, in order to avoid the Gan family coming to her door, she had indeed registered it at the Pingjiang County Government Office, using her real name.
But then she was canceled. Wu Youcai tried to find her through Wu Chengye's identity certificate, but he couldn't.
However, Wu Youcai did bring some trouble to Guangfengshui by virtue of his relationship with the Duke's government. However, Guangfengshui had taken precautions and had Mu Yan keeping an eye on him, so nothing happened.
It's just that Huo Xi feels that she deserves it.
In the middle of the night, she asked Zhufeng Tuyue to take her to Wu Youcai's house, put a sack on him, beat him up, and shaved off half of his head.
Early the next morning, the servants brought water in to help Wu Youcai change his clothes and wash his face. When he saw that he was holding a half-bald gourd, he was so frightened that he knocked over the basin and spilled water all over the floor.
Then, Wu Youcai's screams echoed throughout the courtyard.
The sound of clattering plates and cups was heard all morning. The servants were in a state of silence, and no one dared to come near.
Huo Xi felt happy just thinking about Wu Youcai getting up and seeing him with a half-bald head on his head.
"Sister, what are you laughing at?"
Early in the morning, Huo Nian was very happy to see his sister getting up early, having breakfast with them, and preparing to send him off to school. But when he saw his sister sitting alone and having fun, he was confused.
"Did Sister Xi have a sweet dream last night? She was so happy that she was so happy." Mu Jie was happy to see Huo Xi like this.
Huo Xi came back to her senses and rubbed their faces, "Yes, sister had a great dream last night. It's good."
"Sister Xi, have you found gold?" Mu Jie's eyes lit up.
Uh... this kid, the Mu family is short of pocket money?
"Yes, I picked up a lot of gold. Just tell Sister Xi what you like and she will buy it for you."
"Really? Then we will take a break in a few days. Can Sister Xi take us to the inner city to take a cruise? We want to go to the inner city to play, and we also want to eat and listen to music on the cruise. We also need to bring An An with us. He
I can’t go out to play, it’s boring.”
"You're not afraid of the cold."
"It's not cold. There is a brazier on the cruise ship. Let's wear thicker clothes when we get there." He pulled Huo Xi's clothes and shook them, for fear that she would refuse.
"Okay, after you guys take a rest, I will take you on a cruise to listen to music."
"Oh, great!"
Mu Jie jumped up and said goodbye to everyone happily, dragging Huo Nian to school.
After school ended in the afternoon, all the students left the school one after another, but Huo Nian stayed behind to practice martial arts.
His current marksmanship has been perfected by Zhu Feng and others.
But his Xuan Shuang treasure spear is a bit heavy. He is not strong enough and can lift it up even if he knocks it down. But Wu can't move the spear very well, so now he practices his moves with a lighter spear while practicing his strength.
After practicing for a while, I am already getting started.
Zhang Fu stood behind, watching and nodding. This kid is really talented. In such a short time, he has already mastered marksmanship, which is not bad.
"uncle!"
Huo Nian was very happy to see Zhang Fu and ran over with a spear.
Seeing this, Zhao Duo bowed his hands to Zhang Fu and took the other children to the other side to practice.
Mu Jie straightened his back and cheered up, but he couldn't let the British Duke see that he was not working hard. The British Duke often visited the palace, and if the news reached the ears of the emperor's grandfather, even his father would be embarrassed.
Immediately he started playing with his fists and kicks.
Zhang Fu only glanced at Mu Jie, then turned to Huo Nian: "Show uncle the marksmanship you were practicing just now."
"yes."
When Huo Nian heard this, he quickly got into position, picked up the spear and started playing with it.
Zhang Fu nodded while watching. After he finished playing, he went up to correct his movements. He was very patient and benefited Huo Nian a lot.
Zhang Jin went out with the Duke of Guo this time and watched the Duke giving instructions to Huo Nian.
At first, he looked at it with a smile, feeling that it was rare for the Duke of Guo to be so patient with a child. This child was really lucky to have the guidance of the Duke himself.
"When the gun is thrust forward, the three points of the hand, eyes, and gun should be in line. The right hand must be strong, and the foot must grip the ground at the same time, and the lower body must be stable..."
Zhang Jin watched with a smile as the Duke leaned over to correct the child's movements and taught him step by step. Their heads were almost touching, and Zhang Jin smiled.
After laughing, my heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Why are the two men so similar in their expressions and looks as they stare at the head of the gun?
Zhang Jin's heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly looked at it. When he saw it, he was shocked again. Even the subtle expressions on their faces were almost the same.
Zhang Jin stared at the big one and the small one, unable to take his eyes off them.
It wasn't until half an hour later that Zhang Fu and I walked out, leaving the school, and kept looking back.
"What's wrong with you? You look so absent-minded?"
Zhang Jin opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but felt that his idea was a bit ridiculous and closed his mouth again.
"Master, I think this Huo Nian is really talented. Master has a keen eye. If he can train this child well, he will definitely achieve great things in the future."
Zhang Fu smiled and nodded, "In addition to this child's talent, what's rare is that he also likes to learn martial arts and is willing to work hard."
Yes. Zhang Fu is very satisfied. It’s not in vain for him to take some time out of his busy schedule to give some advice.
Zhang Jin had something in his mind, so he only echoed a few words, "Master, I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do, so I won't accompany you back home."
Zhang Fu glanced at him, nodded, turned around and got on the carriage.
After seeing Zhang Fu's carriage go away, Zhang Jin walked quickly to Qionghua Lane. When he arrived at the weaving workshop, he asked someone to call Ningxiu for help.
Ningxiu has been in the weaving workshop these days, not daring to go out for fear of causing trouble for the girl. After the wet nurse arrived, she stayed there with nothing to do, so she went to the weaving workshop to keep her company and do things together, and her life was quite comfortable.
.
Hearing that Zhang Jin was looking for her and didn't want to go out, Zhou pushed her and made ouch signs.
"Okay, don't worry, I'll go meet him for a while. If I don't go to see him, he will become more suspicious." Ningxiu felt that the wet nurse was right and went out.
Seeing Ningxiu, Zhang Jin suddenly didn't know where to start.
Thinking of the people who questioned Ange, the people from Huojiaba said that Huo Nian's sister was adopted. He thought about the words for a few times before asking: "Are all the Huo family's siblings adopted by the Huo family?"
Ningxiu was startled, thinking he knew something.
He panicked, but quickly calmed down: "What nonsense are you talking about? Their surname is Huo, and they are listed in the household registration. They are the biological blood of the master and his wife."
Zhang Jin has been with Zhang Fu for a long time, and is very good at observing faces. Ningxiu thought she hid it well, but Zhang Jin could tell from the subtle changes in her face that she was pretending to be calm, and he had an idea.
"As long as it is his biological son. The Duke of Guo likes the child Huo Nian very much and has always wanted to accept him as his disciple, but his sister refused. It is a great blessing for ordinary people to be able to climb up to the Duke's Palace.
I thought I would refuse. I'm afraid it's because I'm not my biological child. Don't think too much about it, I just feel it's a pity and want you to introduce Mr. Huo and Mrs. Huo."
Ningxiu breathed a sigh of relief: "We, the master and his wife, listen to our girl. If the girl makes the decision, it is settled, and the master and his wife will not say another word."
"Okay, I understand. I'm just worried that you won't have a good time in your new master's house. If you have any trouble, you can always come to me. Now I'm quite useful in front of the Duke."
Ningxiu nodded and thanked him.
Zhang Jin was afraid that saying too much would offend her, so he turned around and left without saying much.
After returning home, he was not idle and began to secretly investigate Huo Erhuai and the Yang family.
