Fight the Giants

  Chapter 594 Genealogy

  In view of the performance of Huo Xi and Huo Nian when they entered the mansion, the second and third families were also talking about them.

  The Hou family of the second room is now helping Mrs. Tai give in the palm of her hand, and she quickly received Huo Xi's movements.

Muttering to Zhang Wei: "I still remember Sister Ning when I was a child. At that time, she was lively and cute, and my father liked her, but she was not delicate at all, and her temper was good. Now it seems that her temper has become colder and sharper. .”

   Seeing that she didn't give Wu Shi any face on the spot, even looking at her seemed superfluous. Hou felt that with such a temperament, he was afraid that he would suffer.

  Zhang Jian recalled what Huo Xitang said, and said: "If it is true that Wu Shi poisoned his sister-in-law and murdered his mother, it is normal for her to dislike Wu Shi so much and be in the same situation as Wu Shi."

  Hou's eyes flashed.

  Back then when the elder sister-in-law passed away, the Wu family was only a concubine, no matter how courageous she was, she would not dare to do anything to the mistress.

   I'm afraid there is something about Mrs. Tai.

  But she dared not say this in front of Zhang Xiang. And the husband is very smart, I'm afraid he knows it well.

  The husband and wife did not pierce this piece of paper.

Hou only said: "No matter how much hatred you have in your heart, you shouldn't contradict Wu so carelessly. Wu has been running the mansion for many years, and the affairs in the backyard are deep. Brother, I'm afraid..."

   I'm afraid he can't beat Wu Shi.

  Zhang He frowned: "Sister Ning brought a lot of people into the mansion, and the escorts who followed Nian'er, I can see that they all have skills."

   "So what. Mrs. Wu is the mistress of the big house. It's not easy for Mrs. Wu to order her servants to do something? In this world, there are only people who can be thieves for a thousand days. How can there be someone who can guard against thieves for a thousand days?"

   "Now you help your mother take care of the middle school, and you will take care of the two more children in the future. It has been difficult for them these years. First the elder sister-in-law is gone, and the elder brother loves them again. They are in the front yard, so they can't keep an eye on them all the time."

   "If you need me, of course I can't just watch. But we are the second room, so it's not good to interfere too much with the first room's affairs."

  In her opinion, it is extremely easy for two children who lost their mothers to be manipulated by a housewife.

  In the third room, Zhang Fu and Xiao Wu were also talking about their siblings.

  Zhang Fu is not as stable as his elder brother and second brother. He only devotes himself to the army, usually doesn't care much about the affairs of the back house, and is impatient to take care of general affairs.

   That is, the two wives were chosen with the help of Mrs. Tai.

  Thinking that Sister Ning couldn't even go home these years and was living outside with a younger brother, Zhang Fu felt uncomfortable.

  If it is true that Mrs. Wu harmed Mrs. Xian, then he has to protect the two children for Mrs. Xian, in case Mrs. Wu harms them again.

  When the first sister-in-law entered the mansion, he was still young, and the first sister-in-law loved him as a younger brother.

   "You usually take care of Sister Ning'er and Nian'er, don't let Mrs. Wu bully them."

  Xiao Wu nodded in agreement.

  But in my heart, I feel that Huo Xi is a junior, a bit impolite.

   In front of so many servants of the younger generation in the hall, talking about a lady of the country like that doesn't give her any face. Such a private matter can be said in private, why bother to expose it in public?

   One is that the family ugliness should not be publicized, and the other is that they are so domineering and exposed, and they are not smart at all. Aren't they afraid that the Wu family will hold grudges and deal with them secretly?

  Their siblings just entered the mansion, and Mrs. Wu is the wife of the Duke, who has been running the mansion for more than ten years. Which servant in the mansion doesn't look at her face and doesn't give her face?

  It is easy for Mrs. Wu to deal with them.

   With such a reckless temperament, Xiao Wu felt that she was not smart enough, and she might not be a fuel-efficient lamp.

"I'm afraid Sister Ning doesn't need our protection. I heard that their siblings brought in a dozen or twenty servants from outside. These confidantes are all their own people. I'm afraid the two courtyards will be surrounded by water." .”

   "Even so, they just came back to the mansion from outside, and I'm afraid they are not familiar with everything in the mansion. You usually help and take care of it, which is also your caring heart as an aunt."

   "That's natural. My nephews and nieces, can I watch others bully them?"

Seeing that Zhang Fu was in a good mood, he said again: "I heard that Sister Ning's servants went to the warehouse to ask for things, but they picked out a lot of good things. There are only a few days this month, and they even received a month's monthly silver from the cashier. And the case..."

  Zhang Fu frowned: "It's not like our mansion can't afford it! Speaking of it, they haven't received a monthly payment for more than ten years, and they haven't taken a single stipend. Shouldn't they all be supplemented?"

   "Besides, the Huo family helped our family raise the children. How much did they pay in the past ten years? We didn't pay them back."

   "The public didn't give it, so why hasn't your elder brother given it?"

   "Big Brother's private house belongs to Big Brother, and the houses in the mansion raise children. I never heard that all of them are paid for by themselves."

  Feeling that the little Wu family cares about even the money, Zhang Fu was a little dissatisfied, and got up: "I'll go to the Qi family."

  Little Wu stared at his back and gritted his silver teeth.

Now there is only one wife and one concubine in the third room. Although the men did not bring such and such women back to the mansion, it is like this. There is no other woman to share the favor of the Qi family. There is only one Qi family and the Xiao Wu family. It's like a stick in the throat.

  But she is a step-wife, and she entered the door earlier than the Qi family. After the death of the third master Yuan's wife, the Qi family helped take care of the third room.

  Including the two children of the third master's original spouse, the Qi family is usually respectful, and the little Wu family can't handle Qi's family.

   I was just depressed in my heart.

  No matter what the couple think about the new eldest lady and fifth young master, Huo Xi and Huo Nian have officially returned to the family.

   Didn't wait too long, only the next day, Zhang Fu opened the ancestral hall, and under the witness of the clan elders, recorded Huo Nian under Li's name. The words "Zi, Zhang Yuzhong" are clear and eye-catching.

  In the column of "Zhang Yuning", the handwriting "died in June of the fourth year of Jianwen" was also crossed out.

   After recording the genealogy, the siblings kowtowed to the ancestors.

  Huo Xi looked at his mother's tablet, feeling agitated.

  Mother, I brought Nian'er home! He is the first son of the original wife, and now he is the son of the British family granted by the emperor. I will protect him from now on.

   With tears in his eyes, he knocked his head on the cold blue bricks of the ancestral hall.

   She had been thinking about this day for ten years.

  Huo Nian was also excited when he saw his name being recorded in the genealogy. Following her sister's actions, she knelt three times and kowtowed nine times.

   Several clan elders were very satisfied when they saw him at a young age, with outstanding character and appearance, good manners and good manners. I also heard that he is also outstanding in civil and martial arts, and I feel even more gratified.

   "Okay, let's pass on the family business in the future. Let the lintel of the Zhang family add more glory!"

   "Yes, Yu Zhong will remember."

   Several clan elders were very satisfied with Huo Nian, who knew Li, and secretly nodded their approval.

  At first, I was worried about taking back a person who was so vulgar and unfit for the position of the son, but now I can be regarded as relieved.

   Said to Zhang Fu: "Since the eldest son has returned to the mansion, let's hold a lively banquet, invite all the aristocratic families in Beijing, let everyone get to know our eldest son, and bring Zhonger to meet more people."

  Zhang Fu nodded: "The banquet has been scheduled for three days, and invitations will be sent to each family today."

"Very good."

   Several clan elders gave Huo Nian a few words one by one, and then walked out of the ancestral hall in satisfaction.

  On the same day, invitations like snowflakes were sent to various prefectures in central Beijing. Huo Xi and Huo Nian also sent invitations to some people they had made friends with.

   Soon, the first banquet for the siblings after returning home will come soon.
