Huo Sipan looked at his second brother's mansion. His face was full of envy, and he couldn't even hide it.
He was still in the countryside thinking about how to get more money from his parents, thinking about how to hide his private house instead of handing it over to the public, and spending a few copper coins to get money, but his second brother was already making money on every inch of land.
The capital of China has such a large house in the inner city.
Not only that, there are maids, women, and young men guarding him everywhere. He is already a wealthy and aristocratic person in the capital.
In the blink of an eye, his second brother has become a master.
And he still stayed in the countryside to earn those three melons and two dates. Huo Sipan instantly felt that the thank-you gifts from the Duke's Mansion were not enough.
After hearing that his mother said she would not go back to Huojiaba, Huo Sipan agreed wholeheartedly.
Why go back to Huojiaba now? Just stay in the capital and follow his second brother to eat and drink.
Maybe I could marry two or three young and beautiful concubines, wouldn't that be nice? Huo Sipan had a sweet dream.
He turned around and saw that his mother was already ordering the girls to do this and that. She didn't need anyone to greet her, so she found a high chair and sat down, raised her feet, and also ordered the servants to wait on her.
Yang couldn't see the two of them looking like this. They didn't regard other people's houses as their own, did they really regard them as their own?
Seeing the look of an old lady and an old lady, Yang was so angry that she glared at Huo Erhuai fiercely.
I had the intention to take An An to live in Qionghua Lane, but I felt that it would be uncomfortable to free up my home and give it to others. I was so angry that my chest was tight and my breath was blocked.
This old lady, if you say she is a good person, respects the old and loves the young, is sensible and reasonable, she doesn't mind raising this mother-in-law, but her mother-in-law is not likeable.
What kind of heart-warming things has she done in the past few years? She even went to the Duke's Mansion to fight against the autumn breeze and cause trouble for her children.
He turned around and went out, instructing his servants to quickly go to Huojiaba to find the old man. After giving the instructions, he was about to leave, but remembered that these two people would not come to the capital for no reason. He entered the hall again.
"Mom, how did you and his fourth uncle know the news, and how did they come to visit us?"
Mrs. Fang was enjoying the service of the girl with squinted eyes. She pointed here and said it was sour, and there was also soreness there. When she heard this, she opened her eyes and was very dissatisfied: "Look at you, is that the way you talk to your mother-in-law?"
Mrs. Yang laughed angrily, "I call you mother, but don't pressure me as mother-in-law. Don't forget that Erhuai is your son-in-law. This is my Yang family!"
If she gets upset, she will be driven out of the house with a big broom.
Fang choked and glared at Yang angrily, then looked at Huo Erhuai: "Look what your mother-in-law said!"
"Mom, she is right. I am the Yang family's son-in-law. Of course, everyone in this house has the surname Yang."
Mrs. Fang was so angry that she wanted to give her son a beating. This was so heartless!
I have all my own flesh and blood, and yet I am still being held down by a woman.
"Isn't An An's surname Huo? Isn't that a child of my Huo family? Aren't the two in the Duke's Mansion also surnamed Huo?"
Don't think she doesn't know those two are on the household register.
Huo Erhuai paused, but Yang didn't intend to spoil her. If it was thought that everything here was named Huo, would there be a peaceful life in the future?
"An'an's surname is Huo. That's because he is doing favors for Erhuai! It's because Erhuai doesn't have a homestead. If he takes his surname of Huo, he can be exempted from this tax and that tax. And in my Yang family's ancestral genealogy, An An's surname is
Yang. Call you mother, but don’t forget that Erhuai has married into my Yang family!"
After Yang said this, she signaled to the girl who was tapping Fang's shoulders, and the girl immediately moved away from Fang.
This made Mr. Fang very angry.
I was trying to find something to say to refute Yang, but then I remembered that I had really sold Erhuai many years ago.
Mrs. Fang was so regretful that her intestines were green. If she had known about such a thing, she would have sold everything and left Erhuai at home.
Could it be that the family's wealth and relationship with the Duke are now beyond the reach of my own family? That would be more uncomfortable than killing her.
Huo Sipan was also a little dumbfounded. He had forgotten that his second brother had married into the Yang family. He slowly sat up straight.
I was very unwilling to see my mother being choked by her second sister-in-law and unable to speak.
He rolled his eyes and said in a warm voice: "Second sister-in-law, our family does not talk about heretics. Even if my second brother is married, we are still a family, and my mother is still my second brother's biological mother."
As a biological mother, we must abide by filial piety. We cannot leave poor relatives like them behind just because we are rich. This cannot be justified anywhere.
"I didn't say that you are not Erhuai's biological mother or our relatives. Our family still has the conditions to entertain relatives for a few meals."
If you want anything else, then nothing.
Do you think any married daughter takes her parents to her husband's family to take care of her in old age? Unless she has no sons.
The Huo family still has three sons and a bunch of grandchildren. It is not Huo Erhuai's turn to provide for the Fang family in his old age. He is not afraid that his children and grandchildren will be poked in the back.
After thinking about it clearly, Mr. Yang sat down in the hall.
Mrs. Fang was so angry that she scolded Mrs. Yang. Knowing her weakness, Mrs. Yang stood up and said, "Where were the thank-you gifts from Duke Cai's mansion just now? Put them in the warehouse quickly and don't lose them."
Mrs. Fang jumped up: "That's the thank you gift given to us by the Duke's Palace! Do you want to keep it for yourself?"
"What do you mean? My Yang family has raised the children of the Duke's family, and they don't thank me, the Yang family, but people who have nothing to do with it?"
Fang was anxious and jumped over to them. Seeing that the servants had not had time to collect them, they just put them on the table in the main hall. She rushed over and hugged them in her arms, and looked for things to pack with Huo Sipan.
I simply couldn't see it.
Yang simply stopped looking. How could she snatch those thank-you gifts from them? She glared at Huo Erhuai.
Huo Erhuai also felt very embarrassed and walked over with a frown on his face: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Just leave it alone, my mother won't take it from you."
Mrs. Fang refused to put it down, so she still put the gold and silver ingots on her body, or put them on herself to make people feel reassured.
She curled her lips and said, "She is now rich and doesn't like these anymore." But to her, these are treasures.
I don’t know what other good things the Yang family got. The Duke’s Mansion could give so many things to her when she first came to visit, so how much more could be given to the Yang family?
Mrs. Fang felt itchy in her heart, wishing she could go to Yang's warehouse to have a look and plunder. If this was the daughter-in-law, would it be her turn to make the decision in this family? Humph.
However, Yang supported her, and she and Huo Sipan also restrained themselves. Although they didn't want to admit it, Yang was right, Erhuai and his wife moved out.
Shaking his head and sighing.
The mother and son didn't want to go back to Huojiaba, and these plates of food couldn't satisfy them anymore.
Their goal is to enjoy glory and wealth in the capital. But they don't dare to offend the Yang family. Anyway, even if the Yang family wants to drive them away, they won't leave.
Could it be that Yang could still drag them out? It depends.
Asked them who called them here and who told them the news, they told the truth. However, the other party refused to give their name and described their appearance to Huo Erhuai and Yang, and the couple did not know each other.
Yang was so angry that she had no choice but to pass the news to Huo Xi.
When An An came back from school, she was a little surprised to see Fang and Huo Sipan suddenly come to the door. She was dumbfounded that her grandmother and fourth uncle hugged and kissed her when they came up, and they were even more dumbfounded when they showed affection to him.
At the dinner table, Fang and Huo Sipan looked at the table full of delicacies, wolfing them down, fearing that they would be robbed if they ate too slowly, which made An An stunned again.
This doesn't look like a hungry person, why are you trying to grab food? An'an doesn't even have enough to eat.
She quietly asked Ms. Yang: "Mom, can I go find my brother and sister? How about I go stay with my brother and sister for a few days?"
