Fight the Giants

  Chapter 225 Reward with Life

  When Huo Xi was dazed and awakened by the noise, he realized that the boat had already arrived at a small town in Songjiang County.

  The Mu family is saying goodbye to the Huo family and preparing to leave.

  Mother-in-law Yan took her little grandson Mu Jie to thank Yang: "Thanks to your help last night, my family survived the night safely. Thank you very much."

  Holding the princess halfway, the son-in-law nodded towards Huo Erhuai: "Xu'er has just returned to the capital, and it's rare to have a talkative little friend. I have time to bring your two sons to my house to play with Xu'er."

Huo Nian didn't have any concept of class or inferiority. After hearing this, he took his little brother's hand and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, next time I'll go and play with you! You can come and play with me when you have time, and I'll take you fishing. , and taught you how to swim in the water."

  Mu Jie nodded again and again, and the two children held hands reluctantly.

   Several carriages were already parked on the shore, and Li Yi and a group of servants were waiting for them to get on the carriage.

  Mu Yan walked behind, took out something from her arms, and handed it to Huo Xi avoiding people: "If you have any difficulties, you can use this jade to find me in Mu's residence."

   Before Huo Xi could react, something was forced into his palm, and the tentacles were cold.

  Looking down, he saw that the fat was white and delicate, and it was actually a rare and good jade.

   Wanting to return it, I looked up at the other person's expression that couldn't be shirked, thinking that a piece of jade from a wealthy family is nothing, and I already took one piece, and there is no psychological burden to take another piece.

  Although this jade cannot be eaten or drunk, it is not easy to sell, but giving Xie Jin would make her happier. But, there is a golden thigh in front of me, so I can't make the young master unhappy.

  Happily accepted it, quickly put the sleeve into the sleeve, and thanked him with a smile.

  No one saw this scene, but when the son-in-law looked back to find Mu Yan, he happened to see it, and his pupils shrank.

  The Mu family went ashore, quickly boarded the carriage, and left.

  The son-in-law settled down his aunt, wife and children, and rode the horse beside Mu Yan, "Why did you give away the personal jade pendant that your grandfather specially made for you? And give it to a boy?"

   Mu Yan did not explain.

He only said: "She saved my life twice. If it wasn't for her last night, I might not be alive. Now I am lucky to be alive, and I will inevitably be reprimanded by the emperor after returning to Beijing. In the future, we will be walking on thin ice, and misfortunes and fortunes are unpredictable." .”

   "Then just send some other gold and silver belongings, and there is no need to send that jade pendant."

   "Grandpa once said that the little favors of others should be repaid with springs. When others save my life, I should repay it with my life. It's just a jade pendant."

  Mu Xin sighed: "Just send it off. Last night was really thrilling. Did you ask anything?"

   "I'm going to tell my fourth uncle." Dama walked up to Mu Xin and whispered to him.

  After Mu Xin listened, Le Ma paused: "What! Did you make a mistake?"

   "It's not once or twice. It's possible to make a mistake once, but is it wrong every time?"

   "This, this is actually a heart of disobedience!"

  Mu Yan sneered at the corner of his mouth, the heart of disobedience was not just born.

   "Maybe only if I die can I take advantage of her heart."

"You... Yan'er, don't think so. Since my father brought you to the southwest when he was young, he taught you himself, invited you to be a famous teacher in civil and martial arts, and the elder brother also took you hand in hand. Naturally, the southwest will be handed over to you. inner."

  Mu Yan sighed, the painstaking efforts of my grandfather and stepfather made it difficult for me. There are quite a few people staring at this piece of fat in the Southwest.

"Uncle does not have the means of grandfather and father. The Jun family is a big local family in the southwest, with intertwined roots, and has intermarried with the local chieftain for decades. Uncle still relies on the Jun family. It is also important to have good relations with the local chieftain and various ethnic groups. His Majesty's meaning."

   "That being said, His Majesty's frequent moves to Southwest Yunnan in the past few years are also to prevent my Mu family from becoming bigger. On the one hand, my family is married to the royal family, and I rely heavily on it, but there are always dikes..."

   "Fourth uncle, silence."

Mu Xin looked around, and whispered: "Uncle Si understands. Yan'er, you... didn't expect you to go on such a difficult road. Don't worry, Uncle Si will support you. I will tell the princess about this matter. If She was summoned into the palace to talk, what we met last night were water thieves who robbed people and money."

"Um."

   A group of people entered the town, joined Geng Shi, Mu Wang and others who had gone to the town first, took a short rest, and went back to Beijing by land again.

   On the side of the Huo family, Huo Erhuai, Yang Fu and others stayed up all night. There was a family of princesses on the boat, and they all went to watch the night on the fast boat that Mu Yan came on.

   Now I don’t plan to take a break, but I still want to return to Beijing quickly, for fear that something will happen on the way.

  Huo Xi let them go to sleep, and went to the stern to shake the scull.

  Huo Nian was holding food at the stern of the boat while feeding her, and stayed with her at the stern. Huo Xi pestered him and told stories about Meng Qiushang one after another.

   Huo Xi was stunned by the question: "Where do you get so many reasons? Write down the reasons. Next time, my sister will find you a gentleman and give you a good answer."

   I don’t know what happened to my grandfather’s family. If my grandfather is still alive, I can communicate with my grandfather in the future and let my grandfather teach me my homework. It must be great.

   "Sister, after returning to Beijing, am I really going to go to school? Can I not go? I like to go fishing with my parents on the boat."

  Pi Xiaozi was holding the bowl of food, and was listless. When he heard that he was going to school, he lost his energy.

"You can also go fishing when you are studying. You have learned the skills. What can you do if you want to do it? You also need to know how to read the scales and settle accounts. Didn't you say that if you make money from fishing, you can buy a lot of land, and then ask People come to plant, do you and your mother go to the countryside to collect rent?"

"If you don't study, you can't even count how much rent the tenant has given you. You have to sign a contract with the tenant. If you don't understand, what should you do if you are cheated? Then can our rent be returned? "

   Pi Xiaozi blinked, that's not okay. If you get money from fishing, you have to buy land. Buying land and then collecting rent is not okay to be cheated.

   "How many years do you need to study?"

   "When you read it, you think it's good, and you are more capable than others, so come and tell my sister that you don't want to read it."

   "Okay. Then I will go to school."

   "That's right, that's how you behave. You see, that Mu Jie is more than a year younger than you, and he already knows how to write big characters."

   "I can also read and write big characters."

   "People can memorize the entire Three Character Classic, will you?"

  Pi Xiaozi froze in an instant: "That's because I didn't go to school. If I went to school, I would memorize it."

   "Yes. Nian'er is so smart, how can he be worse than that kid Mu Jie? That's absolutely impossible."

   "Well, that's absolutely impossible!" Patting his chest, being fooled by his sister aroused his desire to win.

  After a while, he raised his head and asked: "Then can I still go fishing with my parents after I enter the school?"

  Stinky boy, he knows how to fish.

   "Yes, the school doesn't have classes every day, it takes a rest every ten days, so you can go fishing with your parents when you don't have classes?"

   "That's fine, then I'll go to school to learn some skills first. I will be the smartest kid in the fisherman's family, no one can compare to me!"
