Fight the Giants

  Chapter 629 something big happened

   Mrs. Wu has figured it out these days.

  Since those two villains returned to the mansion, her precarious position in the Duke's heart has completely disappeared, and she has not even given her a basic face.

  The Lords of the Kingdom of Heaven have never paid a single glance to her. Even if the son tried to pull and pull, he couldn't call him.

   Sure enough, what her mother said was right, other people's wealth is not as good as her own, men are unreliable, and the only thing she can rely on in the future is her son.

  Only when her son becomes the Duke of the country, can she become the wife and have the imperial title. Only when the daughter is next to the son can she have a place in the East Palace.

  Yao'er doesn't rely on her own brother, does she rely on someone next to her belly?

  Wu finally made up his mind.

  The Huo family on the other side heard that the Duke is coming, so they are also making various preparations.

  Huo Da, who couldn't take care of his sleep, was so nervous that he stretched out his new clothes and looked back and forth, for fear that he would be inappropriate and let the Duke of the country blame him.

  God, their family would nod and bow even when they saw an officer in the county government office. Are they going to have dinner at the same table with the Duke now?

   "Nian'er, did your father really say he would come?"

  Huo Nian smiled and nodded at him: "Yes, grandpa, father said he had never seen you before, so he wanted to make up for the courtesy."

  Oh, the Duke of the State is coming to see him, and he even said that he needs to make up for the courtesy! The ancestral grave really smoked a lot.

  Thinking about the few dishes sent by the Duke's mansion, plus the later gifts from the Duke, Xi'er and Nian'er, the family suddenly became more wealthy and could buy a lot of land in the countryside. The marriages of several grandchildren have a large sum of money and dowry.

   Huo Da was very happy.

   All this is brought by two children. He turned his head and glanced at Huo Nian who was sitting next to him.

Distressed: "Oh, why did you fall, this leg needs to be raised for a few more days? It hurts... I heard that what to eat will make up for it. Grandpa will go back and find out if there are any kinds of bones for you to buy. Come on, eat more bone marrow tonic."

   "Grandpa, don't worry about it. There are imperial doctors in the house for diagnosis and treatment. It will be fine after a period of time."

   "Okay. That's good."

  Looking at Huo Nian, he used to think that this grandson was different, and that if Erhuai could raise such a child, there would be hope for the family to change their family in the future. I didn't expect that it was not my own child.

  But the child is grateful for the love, and An An will have the support of these two brothers and sisters in the future, and Erhuai's family will also get up.

  Huo Da's heart was full, looking at Huo Nian and Huo Xi, his heart was full of excitement.

  Huo Daqin and Huo Sanhe looked at these two nephews and nieces, and they were not their nephews and nieces anymore. In the past, they thought that these two children were not in the pool, but it really took off.

   "Xi'er, you see that you are not just An An's brother..."

  Huo Daqin just opened his mouth, but was stopped by Huo Da: "If you didn't get enough sleep last night, go catch up on sleep, what nonsense are you talking about here!"

  How could he fail to understand what the elder son said.

   But can they match? It is enough for the two children to remember Erhuai's kindness, don't let these ignorant people in the family interfere with the good things, and then the Erhuai family will be implicated, and the love will be used once.

  Huo Xi glanced at Huo Da.

  This grandfather suppressed the rest of the family from coming to the capital, otherwise Huo Daqin and Huo Sanhe wouldn't be the only ones I saw today.

  I think he is quite sensible. He smiled and said: "If there is a junior in the family who needs it, you can come to my father, and I will arrange it then."

  Huo Erhuai's three brothers all have sons, and Sanfang has two sons. Huo Xuan is also a steward in Guangfeng Water, and often goes around with the boat. He has practiced well and can stand alone. Huo Cang is in the school of the workshop, and will be able to arrange work soon.

  Sifang’s son is only two years older than An’an, while Dafang’s two sons are married and the other is still at home.

  Huo Daqin was a little disappointed, while Huo Sanhe's two sons were taken care of by Huo Xi, he was grateful and didn't talk much.

Huo Dayi hurriedly said: "The family is much better now, with your father's help, the eldest house has its own business, the third house has its own boat, and the fourth house Qing'er is still young, not yet old enough to work. "

Huo Sipan was dissatisfied, "Father, you see that An An has already studied in an academy in the inner city, why don't you send my Qing'er to the capital as well, stay at the second brother's house, and go to the academy with An An. Dad, Aren't you looking forward to having a scholar in your family?"

  An'an straightened up when he heard fourth uncle talking about him. Hearing that it wasn't about him, she softened her body again and leaned against Huo Xi's arms with her mouth pouted.

  Huo Xi squeezed his face amusedly.

  When Huo Da heard what his fourth son said, his heart moved. I glanced at An An. Of course he knew that the academy in the capital couldn't compare with the school at home.

  Huo Erhuai saw it, opened his mouth, and was screwed secretly by Yang.

   If the younger one is taken over by the fourth bedroom, will the fourth bedroom also rely on it? The third room has a job in the company, and the fourth room's children live and go to school at home. What about the eldest room? Do you want to make arrangements? Will the whole family have to live here by then?

  Huo Erhuai glanced at her and shut his mouth.

  Fang saw it and was very dissatisfied with Yang.

"What do you mean by that? The family is rich and powerful, and they look down on us? It's a good thing for children to study, and the conditions in the capital are good, so they open their mouths around. What, you are an uncle and aunt, and you don't want to help? You Hiring a cook is only three taels a month, and you can’t afford your nephew’s school expenses?”

   Yang was angry, but it was hard to refute Fang.

Huo Xi glanced at her mother, and said, "An'an went to school in the inner city because of the convenience. Huo Qing is still young, so it's hard to leave his parents. Grandpa still helped find a school in his hometown, and waited for him to open it. Liao Meng, if he reads well in the future, let his parents take him to Beijing."

When Yang heard this, she immediately straightened her body, "Exactly, the children in this city are enlightened at the age of two or three, and when they arrive at school, they can keep up. If Qing'er is able to study in the future, we will take him to Beijing to study, as long as he is willing to study, we will do everything for him as elders."

   It's still her daughter who loves her and looks towards her, and what she raises is different from others. Warmth in my heart.

  Fang is dissatisfied, can the countryside be the same as the capital?

   Still wanted to speak, but Huo Dashi said: "Then let's do this, now the family is not short of money, let Qing'er go to school when I go back. If I study well, I will also come to Beijing to gain the glory of his brothers and sisters."

  Huo Sipan's plan fell through, and he was dissatisfied. But facing Huo Xi, who had a different identity, he didn't dare to talk about it anymore.

Huo Daqin is used to being the master at home, and his parents also rely on him a lot, so he wants to say something at this time, but it is not good to say anything unpleasant to the eldest lady and the son of the Duke's Mansion .

   This kind of relationship, no one else could ask for it, and he didn't dare to offend these two children and break such a good branch.

  So, the family looked happy and chatted about some homework until Zhang Fu came to the door.

   It was the first time Zhang Fu saw relatives in the hometown of the two children's adoptive fathers. He was grateful to the family, and accompanied them to dinner at Huo's house, and chatted with them kindly.

   Huo Da and the others were flattered.

   "Don't be restrained. The Erhuai brothers raised my two children. Wen Bi is very grateful and has nothing to repay. If you need it in the future, just ask. The two families will act as serious relatives."

   "Okay, okay..."

  Huo Da didn't know what to say.

   I didn't expect the high-ranking Duke of the State to be so approachable. It is said that he is a great general who is highly valued by the emperor, a great man who commands thousands of troops. He actually talked about letting the two families move around as relatives.

  When Huo Day got excited, he drank too much.

  Huo Daqin and Huo Sipan didn't want to miss such an opportunity to make friends, and frequently persuaded them to drink. When pushing the cup to change the cup, Zhang Fu also got a little smoked from the drink.

  The wine was over, and when they returned to the mansion, Zhang Fu only had time to tell his son and daughter a few words before going back to the yard to sleep.

  Huo Xi and Huo Nian each went back to their own yards to settle down.

  The moon is in the middle of the sky, and the whole place of the Duke's Mansion is quiet, stepping on the moon and stepping on the stars to talk and answer.

  After hearing this, Huo Xi waved him away, making him still stare at Wenxinyuan. Mother Ma came over: "Girl, what are your plans?"

  Huo Xi was silent: "Just pretend not to know."

   "Then, where is the young master?"

   "Don't tell him."

   "So, that's fine."

  After Nanny Ma went out, Huo Xi sat alone in the study until the sky turned white.

   Still catching up on sleep, Hu Po shook her awake: "Girl, something serious happened!"

  Huo Xi sat up: "What happened?"

   "Girl, Grandpa can't wake up!"

   "What? Tell me in detail."

  At the beginning of Yin, the servant went to the British public house to wake him up. It was time for him to get up and prepare to go to court.

  But no matter how the servants called him, the room was silent. The servant thought that the Duke was too tired, and wanted to let him sleep for a while, but when he called again after a while, there was still no sound in the room.

  The servant felt that something was wrong, so he pushed the door open and went to call him, but he couldn't wake up the Duke.

  Wen Xinyuan panicked, Zhang Jin came over, pinched, patted and called, but there was no response. It was only then that the imperial physician was hurriedly called.

   "Several imperial physicians came, but they couldn't tell what the illness was. The imperial physician said that the Duke's complexion was normal, and he wasn't angry at all, but he just couldn't wake up. Miss, what should I do?"

  The girl and the young master have just returned to the mansion, and the position of the eldest son has not yet been secured. If something happens to the Duke, will the girl and the young master be okay?

   Amber was so anxious that layers of sweat started to form on her forehead, and Vanilla and the others rushed over.

   "Girl, do you want me to go to Qian State Duke's Mansion?"

   Mrs. Tai hurriedly summoned the young lady and the young master over there. Hearing that the Duke had a meal at Huo's house yesterday and drank a lot of wine, she wanted to call the young lady and the young master to ask questions.

   "That's right, go to the Duke of Qian's mansion quickly, in case they have bad intentions, someone will help us!" Vanilla and the others urged Amber.

   Huo Xi got out of bed and let the maids wait for her to dress and wash, while saying: "Don't panic, wait until I go and see."

   Just as he was talking, before Huo Xi could pack up, two nuns beside Mrs. Tai had already come over, with unfriendly expressions and a cold tone: "Miss, Mrs. Tai asked you to go over there!"
