Fight the Giants Chapter 611

Chapter 611 Visit

Everything in this world is like this, the less you don't, the more you care.

Mrs. Wu finally climbed from the bottom to the high gate, just enjoying the time, how to watch it come to naught.

Back then, I didn't have a dowry, so I had to enter a high school, and I had to look so many times before I got everything I have today, and I have my own house today.

Mrs. Wu spent more than ten years working hard to save a private house of less than 200,000 taels, and generously gave half of it to her daughter. There are less than one hundred thousand taels left.

But those two evil breeds got 120,000 taels easily in one day! More than her remaining private house.

Wu was enraged.

She has done so much, but others can easily get it. No matter how humble she was, how she flattered and flattered her, she couldn't overcome the Duke's guilt towards those two scoundrels.

Wu seemed to understand something.

A man's heart is like a castle in the air. In the past, she couldn't hope for it, but now it is still erratic, which makes her feel unreal and unreal.

The natal family is unreliable, and neither is the man.

Mrs. Wu understood. She can only rely on herself to get what she wants.

Just like that year, she resolutely came to the capital to join Zhang's mansion, firmly and firmly pushed the door of the Duke's room... She has enjoyed wealth and honor for more than ten years, and her past self made an extremely correct decision, and she did not People help themselves.

It's the same now, it doesn't make sense that she will return to her original shape in a day. In the past, she was able to enjoy the wealth that others could not enjoy, and now, she can too.

What Wu's going to do, Huo Xi doesn't know.

She can make people stare at her, but they can't guess her heart.

Although Huo Xi wanted to deal with Wu Shi, it did not prevent her from living her life with peace of mind.

After Zhang Mao came that day, after that, he came more and more. Almost every day as long as Huo Xi was around, he would come here again. Sometimes I would wait for Huo Nian at the gate, and when he returned home from the Imperial College, I would come to Xianglan Yuan for dinner with him.

Little Transparent gradually enjoys the warmth of her family with her newly returned brother and sister.

Occasionally, the Eighth Young Master Zhang Xuan would come over for dinner, and then he would bring his elder brother Zhang Bin. In addition, Zhang Qingchu and Zhang Yan, who also lost their mothers in the third room, would often visit Xianglanyuan.

Other young masters and ladies can occasionally be seen in the mansion. But seldom come to Xianglanyuan.

The little Wang family and the Liu family of Dafang seemed to welcome their sister and brother's shareholding style, which overwhelmed the Wu family's west wind, but they didn't let their daughters take the initiative to come to Xianglanyuan to contact Huo Xi.

Huo Xi didn't pay much attention.

When she and her mother were still in the mansion, Xiao Wang entered the mansion and gave birth to Bizhu Biyue. Because Mrs. Tai was her aunt, she often separated from her mother.

My mother shed tears because of this.

Huo Xi didn't like Xiao Wang very much. She didn't let her two daughters get in touch with her, so Huo Xi only wanted to save face.

Bi Ke, who was born in Liu's family, would call her eldest sister sweetly when she saw her sometimes, and Huo Xi would smile at her in return.

The Duke's Mansion is a large place, with carved beams and painted buildings, and beautiful scenery everywhere, but Huo Xi misses the Huo family's floating grocery store on the Qinhuai River, and her home in Qionghua Lane.

"Girl, that..." Vanilla Qiqi stood in front of her.

Huo Xi looked at her, "Did you bite your tongue?"

"No."

"Why is that? Oh, by the way, your wedding day will be in a few days, how about I give you and Shihua a few days off? And Zhuifeng and Tayue, give them a few days off too .”

The more I talked, the more I felt that I had neglected it, so I hurriedly said to Mama Mama: "I'm afraid they are busy with me and Nian'er these days, so they don't have time to prepare. What about the wedding dress? How about going to Xipu outside to order it?"

Before Mother Ma could speak, Xiang Cao stomped her feet in shame, "Girl, do you still have time to care about our affairs? That Young Master Gong is here!"

Master Gong?

"Gong Ziyi? He came?" Huo Xi was a little surprised.

"That's not true, he handed over a post, and wants to visit the Duke of the State!" He handed a post to Huo Xi.

Huo Xi was a little dazed, took a look at the post, flipped it back and forth, and then opened it.

Staring at it for a long while, "Reply to him, just say to ask him to come to the mansion tomorrow afternoon."

"Girl!"

Huo Xi looked at her, what's wrong?

"Girl, you still let him come to the door, because you are afraid that others will not spread more ugly words!"

"What's the bad news for others? Pass it if you like. He wants to see the Duke, but he doesn't see me. Besides, I'm doing well, why don't I dare to see him."

Turning her head, she told Amber, "Study the ink for me, and I will also write a post for him, and ask him to talk about it."

Vanilla was in a hurry and went to see Mama Mama.

Mother Ma glared at her: "Didn't you hear the girl's order? You are now the master of the girl. The girl is open and frank, why should she be afraid of other people's gossip? The young master of the palace has protected the girl's business these years, and the girl is his My righteous sister, why don't you invite someone to drink water and wine?"

Vanilla glared at Mama Mama, then turned and ran to polish the ink.

Gong Ziyi received Huo Xi's post, and also got a reply from the Duke.

At noon the next day, Gong Ziyi took his wife, Chen Shi, and entered the gate of the Duke's Mansion with a heavy gift.

Huo Xi is currently at the center of a rumor storm, and no one in the mansion knows it. Hearing that the merchant's son who rejected her had come to her door, they sent people to inquire about the news.

Even the Wu family, who was under ground restraint, sent his confidants to watch the fun.

Seeing that everyone was full of gossip, Huo Xi graciously invited Mrs. Hou from the second room, Mrs. Wu from the third room, and girls from the other rooms to the main hall to receive Gong Ziyi's wife, Mrs. Chen.

Although the Chen family is just a merchant's wife, but her father Ping Jiangbo, the people along the southeast coast, and the cities along the Grand Canal, who knows Ping Jiangbo who is in charge of water affairs and sea affairs?

With this status, the wife of the second bedroom and the third bedroom helped to receive it, and the price did not drop at all.

Just convenient for them to watch the fun. Save yourself having to ask around.

Mr. Chen knew that Gong Ziyi had a Huo Xi in her heart, and she was full of sense of crisis. After begging Gong Ziyi to take her to Beijing, she came dressed up today. I don't want to be compared at all.

The Gong family is not short of money, and the Chen family enjoys wealth and honor.

It's just that Hou Shi, Xiao Wu Shi and others who are used to being rich all stared at her.

Chen was proud of herself, but when she saw Huo Xi in plain clothes, she was suddenly discouraged. It feels like a joke that I started dressing myself up in the morning.

"Sister-in-law." Huo Xi called her generously, which stunned Chen Shi.

Responding quickly, he affectionately took Huo Xi's hand and entered the flower hall.

Huo Xi immediately introduced Hou Shi, Xiao Wu Shi, and a group of sisters to her.

Mrs. Chen came prepared today and prepared gifts for everyone. Bi Zhu and the others expressed their satisfaction after receiving her precious gifts. I have a good impression of this courteous businesswoman.

"I didn't know that you and your brother were married. Last time, Aunt He said that when you got married, she would send me a post. I was waiting, but I didn't expect you to get married."

Huo Xi said with some regret.

Mrs. Chen smiled decently: "We got married at the beginning of the year. It will be freezing cold, and the capital is not close to Huai'an, so I didn't inform my sister for fear of freezing my sister. No, my husband and I came here to make amends. .”

Thought that the two would never see each other again, but unexpectedly met again. Chen himself didn't even think of it.

Huo Xi glanced at her, Chen was not the kind of stunning person, but she also had a certain color, although she was a humble concubine, she looked dignified and generous, polite and kind, worthy of Gong Ziyi.

smiled: "Then you guys have to make up for your sins. The capital has a lot of food and drink, so I have to let my brother do a good job of bleeding."

Mrs. Chen also laughed, "He, this time he brought out a lot of banknotes. What does my sister like, just talk. If he wants to be stingy, I won't obey."

Huo Xi lowered his head and laughed. I felt a little relief in my heart.

Ms. Hou looked at Mrs. Chen, then at Huo Xi, with a smile on her face. Talk about homework with her.

Bizhu and the others didn't understand why siblings are considered equals, so they asked Chen about it.

Mrs. Chen laughed: "I have to ask your elder sister. When she was a child, she disguised herself as a man and went to Huai'an with her family to transport grain. My husband thought he was really a younger brother, so he was blinded by your elder sister. sworn brothers with him."

As he spoke, he covered his veil and smiled, as if Gong Ziyi was really blind, smiling all over his face: "It was only later that he found out that this younger brother with a different surname is not a younger brother, but a younger sister. Do you think it's funny?"

covered his lips and couldn't help laughing.

Jing Chu Jingwan and the others were very curious, so Huo Xi smiled and told them about this reason.

The reason for this paragraph is also Gong Ziyi.

At this time, facing the British public, he also talked about this past.

However, unlike Huo Xi and Chen's whitewashing of peace, he admitted that period of past openly.

"The boy really didn't realize that the eldest lady was a girl when he was young. For several years, he has been called a brother. It was only later that he discovered the truth by accident. Later, the boy really wanted to marry him."

Zhang Fuchu didn't want to pay attention to his post when he got it. But thinking about the sincerity of the other party coming to the door, and wanting to quell the rumors in Beijing for his daughter, he interviewed him.

I didn't expect this meeting to change my impression of him. It seems that his niece has a good vision.

"Is it because the family disagrees?" Zhang Fu asked.

Gong Ziyi was a little embarrassed.

Zhang Fu snorted, "If I had known about this earlier, I would not have agreed."

Hmph, dare to look down on his daughter, he still looks down on their merchant. They dare to climb high!

Angry in my heart.

Gong Ziyi explained: "The older girl saved the younger one's life, and treated me with sincerity. She has always regarded me as a brother with a different surname. The boy cherishes this sworn brotherhood, and specially brings his wife to visit. Who knows that she has such a bizarre life experience. When I saw her when I was young, I was always happy, and there were no difficulties to knock me down. Unexpectedly, it was not easy for her to walk these years."

Gong Ziyi was full of distress.

If he had known that it was so difficult for her earlier, he would not have compromised with his family like today, and he would definitely protect her.

It was also the first time for Zhang Fu to hear outsiders talk about her childhood.

Although I have listened to it better, every time I listen to it again, I still can't help feeling distressed.

"You are fine, but my daughter deserves better."

"Yes, she deserves better." He missed it. Gong Ziyi was full of regret.

"Of course she deserves better!" A voice came from outside the hall, and both Gong Ziyi and Zhang Fu turned their heads to look.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, Mu Yan stood at the entrance of the hall with his back facing the warm yellow light, looking into the hall. In the eyes, full of determination and persistence.
