Fight the Giants Chapter 603

Chapter 603 Rumors

The scale of the banquet in the British government was so large that more than half of the nobles in the capital came.

The commotion in the mansion is naturally widely known.

If you don't say that dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, the Dizhi is the Dizhi. Even if they have been raised by the common people for so many years, they have not lost their status. Everyone who came to the banquet praised the generous siblings.

No one complained about Zhang Jie anymore.

As for why the two children have been living abroad for many years, the British government did not say anything to the outside world, only rumors in the government were caused by servants. But no one knows what happened in Gaomen's inner courtyard.

He has great sympathy for Huo Xi and Huo Nian.

Not only did Huo Nian gain a lot of goodwill and friends, and he quickly integrated into the wealthy circle of the capital, even Huo Xi also met many noble girls, and they all wanted to send her posts to invite her to play at home.

After a lively banquet, the siblings officially returned to the family.

But the excitement in the British government has not yet ended.

The next day after the banquet, Zhang Fu restrained Wu and Zhang Xie.

Zhang Xie's protest is useless. If it weren't for him, Huo An wouldn't have hurt his head. I heard that he had nightmares in the middle of the night and vomited several times. Fortunately, he invited a doctor to stay at home, so he didn't continue to have a fever.

The Huo family is the great benefactor of the Zhang family. They raised his two children for Zhang Fu. The benefactor's child hurt his head at home. Can Zhang Fu not be angry?

Can you express something?

The next morning, he ordered Zhang Xie's feet to be restrained early in the morning, and Wu Shi was not behind.

After going down to court, he went to visit Huo's house in person.

Said to Huo Erhuai and Yang Shi: "If there is anything wrong, just take my name card and go to the imperial doctor of the imperial hospital for diagnosis and treatment. If necessary, just send someone to look for me, if you can't find me in the mansion, go to the yamen to look for it .”

Huo Erhuai turned his head and glanced at An An, who was quietly sitting beside him, "Your Highness, you're being polite. It's this kid who is naughty, and everyone is too tired to worry about him. His brother and sister even sent someone to visit him early in the morning."

"It should be. Xi'er loves this little brother."

"I love my brothers and sisters too! I only helped my brother because I saw them bullying my brother. I'm not being naughty!"

I emphasized it several times, but my parents still said he was naughty. It's better to be an older brother or sister, let him watch the juggling, and even give him a lot of presents.

"Uncle, can I often visit my brothers and sisters in the future?"

An'an was very disappointed. Her brother and sister lived in other people's homes, so they didn't live with them anymore. Just thinking about it makes me want to cry.

"Yes, why not. If An An misses your brothers and sisters, just go and see them."

"Great, thank you Uncle!"

"What's the matter, your sister said, after these two days, if you are optimistic about the academy, you will be allowed to study in the academy. I just want to play." Huo Erhuai scolded him.

"Is An An going to study? Do you want me to help?" Zhang Fu glanced at An An, thinking about which college in the inner city he could recommend.

Huo Erhuai hastily waved his hand: "Don't dare to bother the Duke, Xi'er said that today he will send someone to compare various academies. He is only enlightened, and he only seeks to be kind to you. It is great if you are not pedantic, and dare not ask for anything else." .”

With their identities, going to some academies where honorable young masters study is nothing but to be looked down upon.

Zhang Fu nodded and encouraged An An.

"In the past two days, I'm going to take your brother to the Imperial College to apply for admission. When An An also goes to school, I will compete with my brother to see who is better at studying, and we will play together after resting."

"All right."

Protested for a long time, parents wanted to send him to school, brother and sister also said they would send him to school, An An didn't want to go to school, An An wanted to go to play with her brothers and sisters.

Soon, Huo Nian enrolled in the Imperial Academy.

Everything in Guozijian is different from Boya Academy, and it is very strange to Huo Nian.

But because of his status, the gentlemen still take good care of him.

Most of the students also had goodwill towards him, and the emperor's grandson Mu Jie was with him, inseparable, and no one spoke small words about him.

It was only then that Huo Nian slowly got used to it.

And when Mrs. Wu heard that Huo Nian had gone to the Imperial College, and that the Duke himself had sent him there, she felt that her son's status was becoming more and more precarious.

Recalling what Baguio said to her that day...

On the day of the banquet, Huo An had an accident, and Mu Yan was by his side. Thinking of that handsome man, Zhang Biyao felt a little bit of regret in his heart.

Remind Mrs. Wu, don't be careless if the Huo family is very familiar with the Duke of Qian's mansion. And it can be seen that Huo Xi and Mu Yan are very familiar with each other.

So, two days after the Wu family was grounded, news about Huo Xi in Beijing spread everywhere again.

What kind of private giving and receiving, night party lovers and the like.

It was rumored, and it was rumored again that Huo Xi actually wanted to marry a businessman before, and flirted with the other party. That person has moved to her house, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law called him.

Speak clearly. People in Beijing were shocked when they heard the news.

Does the noble daughter of the Duke's Mansion want to commit herself to a merchant?

What's even more amazing is that the Goddess has a heart, but the King Xiang is ruthless, and was rejected by the merchant.

People didn't like her.

There was a lot of rumors in the capital. Many noble ladies had set up a banquet and wanted to send invitations to Huo Xi. When they heard the news, they took back the invitations.

"Let's say it wasn't raised in the family, and the rules and etiquette are bad."

"This is self-willing and depraved. Don't you know what your identity is? A noble woman wants to commit herself to a business? This is discrediting the family."

"I just said that it has been raised outside for more than ten years, so why take it back. Even if it's her own flesh and blood, she can be compensated with some gold and silver, and choose a good family for her to marry off, that's all."

"That's right, look at the Duke's Mansion now, because the siblings are probably in trouble. You don't even know what she said to the Duke's wife that day, tsk tsk, I'm afraid there will be no peace in the Duke's Mansion in the future." It's day."

"What did she say to the Duke's wife?" The heart of gossip immediately surged.

Those who heard what Huo Xi said to Mrs. Wu that day, immediately added more details.

"Tsk tsk, this is true. If I were the Wu family, I wouldn't let them in. You see, the son's position as the son of the eldest son is gone after returning to the mansion. Will the daughter of the family be able to marry after this?"

"Wu's daughters have been sent to the prince's mansion, so I still care about that."

"However, did Mrs. Wu really enter Zhang's house with two old clothes? Or did she climb into the Duke's bed during Mrs. Li's pregnancy?"

There was a lot of discussion outside, and Mrs. Tai was very angry.

Called Zhang Fu, who had returned from Xiaya to the mansion, and reprimanded him.

"I just told you to be cautious. It's not easy for our family to live like this, but you just don't listen! Take them back to the mansion without telling, and ask him to be the prince. Look, our family will become a joke in the capital." gone."

"Mother, someday the capital doesn't pass on something. Let's just stand upright and don't care what others say, can we manage it!"

"Didn't you hear what they said, saying that our daughter has a private relationship with a foreigner, and that our daughter will still be able to marry in the future?"

"Mother, if there is no basis for speculation outside, we don't need to take it to heart. It will affect the marriage of the daughters in the mansion, and it is nonsense!"

His daughter, he believes that she is not the kind of person who has no sense of proportion.

"Shut up quickly! I don't dare to go out now. The outsiders said that they were serious, and said that the family sent servants to come to the door and directly rejected the marriage. Many people know about this."

"Mother, even if there is such a thing, it is because our family has treated two children badly. Before they come home, they are ordinary people, and it is normal for them to marry a merchant."

"Shut up, you! She has been dormant for ten years, how can she not know her identity? I think it is just like the outsiders said, and she is willing to degenerate!"

Thinking of the big house, no one is taking care of the general affairs.

He said again: "Hurry up and release Mrs. Wu. She is the mistress of the Duke's Mansion. You are restraining her feet now. Do you know what people say? They say you are heartless and unjust, and she gave birth to children for you." , take care of the mansion, now you have made the son in front of you the crown prince, you slapped her in the face and restrained her feet, all of which are just for her!"

"What's wrong with you?" Huo Xi walked in from the outside.

Zhang Fu and Mrs. Tai looked at her at the same time.

"You still have the face to come out?" Mrs. Tai frowned when she saw that she came in without being summoned.

"Why don't I have the face to come out?" Huo Xi looked at her, "How did my mother die, Mrs. Tai has forgotten?"

"you…"

"Madam Tai forgot, but I haven't." Huo Xi approached.

"Back then, Wu's family was only a concubine, so she dared to kill the mistress. The next crime should be beheaded. Now it's just a confinement. The reason for the confinement is not because of this, but because her natal family committed crimes against the crown prince and the emperor's grandson. Come on. I don't know if the crown prince is in a good mood, but he is going to let Mrs. Wu out."

Mrs. Tai just remembered this incident. He secretly hated Wu's mother's family for not living up to expectations.

Huo Xi glanced at her, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and then looked at Zhang Fu, "Your original wife was poisoned by a concubine's room, so you're going to pretend that you didn't know about it, and let it go lightly?"

Huo Xi interrupted: "You can't bear it. You are thinking about the friendship you have shared with her for more than ten years, and you just pretend that this has never happened."

Zhang Fu opened his mouth, eager to explain: "Father didn't pretend it never happened."

"But what did you do? You are thinking about Wu's love, but have you ever thought about my mother?" Looking at him coldly.

"Ms. Wu envoys servants and servants, enjoying everything my mother has, but my mother is still under the cold ground. The name of a filial son and filial daughter is not even engraved on the tombstone. She is lying on the ground alone, and you How can I bear it!"

"Now she sent people to spread the news about me, what did you do? You don't want my siblings to return home, do you?"

"No! Father didn't think so!" Seeing the disappointment in Huo Xi's eyes, Zhang Fu's heart was pierced.

"Father will give you justice, and no one can take away Nian'er's position!" Zhang Fu was eager to express his opinion.

Huo Xi only glanced at him indifferently.

Look at Mrs. Tai again.

"Back then, you ordered people to feed my mother poisoned wine, and I was there, seeing all of this. For several years, every time I think about it, I can't sleep peacefully. My siblings live in fishermen's homes, and there is no house to live in. We are the ones who can climb up the business. Do you think now that I make your daughters of the Zhang family unable to get married?"

Mrs. Tai was stunned.

After Huo Xi finished speaking, she turned and left without looking at them.
