Mrs. Fang was like a victorious rooster early in the morning, showing her teeth and claws, full of energy, and commanding all the servants in the house to circle around, displaying the old lady's score.
As soon as Huo Da came, she wilted.
I remembered what Huo Da said at home that he would break the legs of anyone who dared to come to the capital and drive him out of the house.
She even wanted to shrink behind her son.
Seeing that his father was trying to swing a stick even for his mother, Huo Erhuai hurriedly stopped him and said, "Dad, dad, please calm down."
Yang also came up to persuade him, "Dad, please take a rest first. It's early in the morning and you've been traveling all night. Why don't you go catch up on some sleep first?" Look at the dark circles under his eyes.
Seeing her father-in-law like this, Yang's anger disappeared.
At least there are people in this family who are sensible. He looked at Huo Daqin and Huo Sanhe who were following him, and hurriedly invited them to sit in the living room. He also ordered the girls to serve breakfast.
An An moved his steps, but Yang saw it and stared: "Why don't you go to school?" You want to be lazy again!
With her little feet grinding on the ground, An An's eyes flickered again and again: "My grandpa finally came here, and I have to accompany him." He said confidently.
Mr. Yang had a headache. Thinking of Nian'er, he woke up early every day without urging. He actively went to school every day. When he looked at An An, he was so angry that he would beat him.
Huo Erhuai turned around and saw, "Forget it, let him take a day off. Then let him go to Fu'er's house and ask Mr. Qin to make up for his homework."
Huo An was so happy that he almost jumped up. As soon as he finished breakfast, he went to see his brother and sister!
Huo Da waved to An An: "Come, come to grandpa."
An An ran over quickly: "Grandpa, don't be angry. After dinner, An An will take you around the house."
"Well, he is really a good grandson of grandpa."
Looking at this youngest grandson, Huo Da felt extremely happy.
I originally thought that the most outstanding grandson was Huo Nian, but I didn't expect that he was someone else's son. He also took the imperial examination as Huo Nian did, hoping to get on the exam and change his family name, but he didn't want his hope to be dashed.
It seems that the youngest grandson is also smart. With his adopted brother and sister taking care of him, his future will be good.
Most of the anger from the morning was gone.
After dinner, An An led his grandfather to see his family's house.
The house in Wujin has several courtyards, many pavilions and pavilions, and it is in the inner city where every inch of land is precious. Not only Huo Daqin and Qin Sanhe, but also Huo Da were dumbfounded, thinking that this second son was really different.
.
His family finally got up here in Erhuai!
The ancestral tomb finally started to smoke.
Huo Daqin and Qin Sanhe had seen Erhuai's yard in Qionghua Lane, but they didn't expect that their brothers also had a house in the inner city. It was still so big, and their eyes were filled with envy.
"Erhuai, you have become rich, and we don't want to steal it from you. You did a good job of hiding it from your family." There was dissatisfaction in his tone.
Huo Erhuai didn't want to say that Xi'er bought this house. Doesn't it mean that Xi'er bought it many years ago?
He just said: "This is the inner city. Even if my family has money, I can't afford it. This is a gift from the Duke's government."
Everyone was dumbfounded.
It was given as a gift by the Duke's Mansion. Why did they give it to me? I still don't understand.
It was Erhuai who adopted their children, not them. They even felt that Erhuai was lucky enough to have such a good thing. Why didn't such a good thing happen to them?
"The servants in this mansion are also sent by the Duke's mansion?" Mrs. Fang thought about her second daughter-in-law in the courtyard of a deep house in the inner city, enjoying the service of the servants, and her heart was scratching her head.
She has not enjoyed such a blessing.
"Yes, mother. Everything in this family is arranged by the Duke's office." If you are dissatisfied, just go to the Duke's office, but don't pester her.
Huo Daqin glanced at Erhuai. He felt that his brother was not telling the truth. But his brother might have some money, but he probably couldn't afford such a big house in the capital.
He is right. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it. You must have power and power.
"This is really unexpected. Xi'er and Nian'er are actually the legitimate sons of the British Duke. Nian'er has become the heir apparent. Erhuai, how could you hide such a big thing from your family?"
When my family heard the news, they were shocked and happy, and they didn't even recover.
If it weren't for Huo Da's pressure, he would have wanted to run to the capital.
"It's just that you kept such a big thing a secret and didn't reveal it at all. We only found out about it when outsiders told us. Do you still have any filial piety?"
Mrs. Fang was very dissatisfied. When her eldest son helped her, she immediately started to tremble again.
"Shut up!" Huo Da shouted.
"Did you save the two children, or did you raise them? I can tell you, can I tell you?"
"Dad, look what you said. Isn't this a family? Why are we hiding together?" Huo Sipan answered.
"If you don't hide it, what do you want to do? Come to the door and fight against the autumn wind? You also have the face!"
After Huo Da finished speaking, he looked at Huo Sipan and Fang: "Have you been to the Duke's Mansion?"
The two of them lowered their heads, and Huo was so angry that he looked for a stick again.
Fang hurriedly jumped away.
"The eldest son of the Duke of Guo was raised by my son. Why can't I come to visit him? With such great contributions, if it weren't for my son, would he still be the eldest son? What's wrong with asking for something? I still think it's a gift.
not enough!"
Yang curled her lips, Nian'er was raised by her and Erhuai, what happened to Fang and the Huo family?
Seeing her father-in-law chasing her mother and son, she felt very comfortable.
"I'll let you say it, let you say it! Do you still want to be shameless? Don't embarrass your son's face! Then you will embarrass my old face! Is the family short of food for you or lack of clothes for you?"
While Huo Sipan was hiding, he disagreed in his heart.
There is no shortage of food and drink in the family. My second brother has provided supplements from time to time over the years. The family is one of the best in the village. But compared with my second brother, it is nothing!
An An watched with twitching eyes and was very interested. When she was ready to see her brothers and sisters, she would talk to them carefully.
Seeing that my grandfather was tired of chasing him, he was invited into the house by his father to talk. He told his mother and ran out to find his elder brother and sister.
Huo Nian had a good impression of this grandpa. After listening to An An's talk, he said, "Grandpa is here, so I have to go see grandpa."
An An leaned on her sister and ate delicious cakes: "My brother can't walk, so I won't go. Grandma...that fourth uncle will snatch food from me."
Grandma can't say it, but it's okay to say it to Fourth Uncle.
Huo Xi smiled and touched his head.
"It's okay if you don't know. Grandpa has come to Beijing. If you don't visit, it won't make sense. Your brother will also be talked about."
"Just say what you say. We can't stop them. We just have to be good and ignore them."
Some time ago, he heard people outside talking bad about his sister and got angry. His mother comforted him and said that you can't block other people's mouths. You can just talk if you like. You just need to act and sit upright.
Huo Xi smiled, didn't listen to him, and ordered people to prepare. She and Nian'er were going back to Huo's house, and she remembered what Zhang Fu said that if someone came from Huojiaba, she would also like to have a meal with them, so she
Have someone go to the Yamen to inform him.
Huo Xi and Huo Nian had just left the house, and Wu knew about it and thought this might be a good opportunity.
