Fight the Giants Chapter 656

Chapter 656 Denied

Mu Yan sent several letters in succession.

Feng Feng stated his position. His marriage can only be decided by himself, which is what the old Hou Ye promised him back then. If you are dissatisfied, ask the old master.

Then wrote to Xun Wu and Zhen Liu, who were in charge of Yunnan affairs, and reprimanded them.

There were such mistakes and omissions, the news was not reported in time, it was dereliction of duty, and the salary was fined for half a year. Those who are not doing their job well at the bottom will be replaced.

He asked Kan Er to personally send the letter he wrote to Huo Xi back to the capital.

Huo Xi breathed a sigh of relief after reading his letter.

"Tell your young master, I trust him. Let him do his business with peace of mind, don't be distracted. I'll wait for him to come back."

Kan Er also heaved a sigh of relief, this non-stop, he is easy.

"Young lady, I'd better write a letter to my grandfather personally to reassure him. Otherwise, he's worried about it day and night, and I'm afraid he won't be able to handle the errand."

Huo Xi nodded, "Then come and pick it up when you leave."

"Okay, then I'll go back to the mansion. The master also wrote a letter to his wife. I will rest at the mansion for a day and leave tomorrow morning."

Huo Xi nodded, took out the letter written by Mu Yan, read it carefully, and rubbed the ink to reply.

After writing the seal, let Tayue send it to Kan Er.

When Cheng received Mu Yan's letter, he was also relieved. If her son doesn't bow his head, can others force him into the bridal chamber?

The eldest daughter of the Duke of England, anyone can see that this is a good relationship. Not only is her status worthy, but she also has outstanding character and ability. In her dreams, she is looking forward to helping her son marry someone back home.

With such an embarrassing status as a son, the Duke of England may not necessarily like him. Such a good thing, still pushing it out?

Mrs. Tai's plan is to look at others and don't know?

This is the ancestral home of the Mu family in the capital, not the Mu Mansion in Yunnan. She is in the palm of her hand. If Yu Wenying wants to leave the mansion, and want to tell the truth about the rumors, she has to ask her if she agrees.

Suddenly someone came to report: "Ma'am, Mrs. Tai has taken Miss Yu out of the house."

Cheng was stunned: "Leaving the house? Do you know where you went?"

"I heard that I'm going to Annanbo Mansion."

"Annanbo Mansion?"

It was only then that Mrs. Cheng remembered that Mrs. Annanbo seemed to have organized a summer garden party today.

Gritting her teeth angrily, she refused to let Yu Wenying leave the mansion, but Mrs. Tai condescended and took her out.

"Go, tell the stable, madam, I want to use the cart."

"Oh, by the way, let's go to the British government again to see if the second lady has gone to the Annambo Mansion. If not, tell me that I invited her to go with me."

"yes."

In Huawanli of Annanbo Mansion, all the wives and noble daughters are beautifully dressed and shuttle among the flowers, as beautiful as a painting.

Yu Wenying has a beautiful appearance and a rich family, and she dresses luxuriously, attracting a lot of attention.

"Oh, I've never seen this girl before, which noble girl is she?"

Wives and wives attending this banquet and that banquet, in addition to making good friends, most of them are looking for marriage partners for their children. Which of the dignitaries in the capital today has wives and concubines, and groups of children?

Being a good mistress not only has to find relatives for one's own child, but also has to worry about the marriages of a bunch of concubine children.

Yu Wenying looked shy and replied one by one in a gentle voice.

Oops, this girl is so sweet.

Surname Yu? Which one? Seeing her closely following the Mrs. Tai of the Duke of Qian's Mansion, the wives who are as fine as humans immediately guessed her identity.

His eyes flickered, which brought people out, so the rumors seem to be true?

Ouch, such a talented man, how could a girl from the far southwest take the lead. Can't help but feel sad.

On the other side, Cheng Shi and Hou Shi also arrived, and a lady who loves to watch the show asked her for confirmation, "Is this a good thing for your young master?"

"Some good thing is about to happen. He is now on an errand for the emperor. He said he is going to train soldiers or something. I don't understand. I have been worried about his marriage for many years. You don't know. He just refuses to nod. I don't know what to look for. I just want to make my own decisions.”

"Isn't there one living in the house? I thought your young master's good news was coming soon, and I had all the money ready for the wedding." Those who were close joked.

"I will miss your wedding money? If a good thing is coming, I will come to your door and hand you a message, asking you to prepare the wedding money." Cheng also replied with a smile.

Isn't it?

After all, this is the mother of the young master.

This pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is also really interesting. One is over there with a tacit appearance, taking the woman around and introducing her identity, but this one is here complaining to others that his son refuses to go on a blind date, worrying about the old mother .

It's exciting to watch.

Some people want to watch the fun, but some don't.

After school at the Imperial College, Mu Jie walked out next to Huo Nian, seeing him following him to get into his carriage, Huo Nian gave him a suspicious look, "Aren't you going back to your house?"

"No more. Angry!" Mu Jie pouted dissatisfied.

"What's wrong with you?"

Mu Jie didn't answer, turned around and said to the servant who came to pick him up: "Go back to your residence, I'll go to see Sister Xi. I will live in the British government residence at night."

The servants also knew that the young master of his family had a good relationship with the elder siblings of the British government, so he responded and drove back in an empty carriage.

"Are you really going to stay at my house tonight?"

"That's still false." Being supported by Zhufeng into the carriage, "Thank you, Master Zhu."

The two sat down in the carriage, and the carriage left slowly.

"Why are you angry?" Huo Nian asked him.

"There is an inexplicable woman living in the mansion, and she even said that she wants to be my sister-in-law! Hmph! I don't recognize it! My brother wouldn't recognize it either!"

He knows that his brother likes to cherish his sister, and he also likes to cherish his sister. I don't want others to be my sister-in-law.

"Ah?" Huo Nian frowned, what about his sister?

"It's fine if we don't recognize it anyway!"

Huo Nian is more than two years older than Mu Jie, and with the changes these days, he already understands a lot. I know that sometimes, even if it is a recognized fact, there is a lot of helplessness. Along the way, he frowned and never let go.

"Hey, where did he go?"

"Who?" Huo Nian followed Mu Jie's example, squeezed to the car window and looked out.

is Zhang Jie's carriage. "He's going to the East Palace."

"He often goes to the East Palace?"

"His sister is in the East Palace."

Mu Jie's eyes flashed, "Then let's go to the East Palace too."

"Why are we going to the East Palace?" Huo Nian looked puzzled.

"Let's go find Grandson's cousin! Don't you want to learn painting? My grandson's cousin's paintings are very good! There are special masters who teach him how to paint, and they are all excellent calligraphers and painters. Don't you want to learn to paint well? , draw your mother?"

Huo Nian was a little moved.

When he came back from the ancestral grave that day, Zhang Fu thought that Huo Nian had never seen his mother, so he showed him Li's portrait, and Huo Nian wanted to draw his mother's appearance.

"Then let's go too. Will Taisun teach me?"

Taisun likes his cousin Mu Jie very much.

Taisun has more than a dozen younger siblings, and three younger siblings with his mother, but they are all rigid and boring.

How can there be Mu Jie who is so lively and vivid, with a pure heart.

Welcome them. "Do you want to learn to draw?"

The grandson was very impressed with the prince of England, and liked his troubled experience and the travel notes he wrote very much.

"I've read your travel notes, and your paintings are pretty good."

Huo Nian was a little embarrassed: "My sister said that my paintings are still immature, not vivid enough, only flesh without soul. Can grandson give me some pointers?"

"Sure." Pointing to a courtyard not far away, "You draw that pavilion first, draw a still life, and I'll take a look."

"Well, thank you, Your Highness Grandson."

Mu Jie also asked for a piece of drawing paper, and started drawing on the side. Taisun pointed out one or two from time to time, and the two drew more seriously.

It wasn't until afterglow that the two left the East Palace and returned to the British government together.

"Sister, Taisun said that I can show him the paintings in the future, he will help to judge, and he can also ask his master for advice!"

Huo Nian's face was full of joy. When he learns to draw well, he will be able to draw his mother.

At that time, I will also draw An An for my adoptive father and mother, and draw my sister and him, and draw a family portrait.

"Okay, then you have to study hard."

"Um!"

"Sister Xi, I will study hard too. I want to draw my mother too!"

"Okay, you also draw your mother, your mother must be very happy."

"Well. Then I will burn it to my mother and tell him I drew it."

After Mu Jie finished speaking, he beckoned Huo Xi to lower his head, and whispered to her: "Sister Xi, I like you the most, and I want you to be my sister-in-law. I don't recognize the one in the house!"

Huo Xi's face was burning, and he touched his head, "Sister Xi also likes Xun'er the most."

Mu Jie raised his face happily. She had a dinner in her elder sister's courtyard, and slept in his brother Nian's place for a night.

Zhang Biyao on the other side did not expect that Huo Nian would come to the East Palace every now and then. The grandson seemed to like him quite a bit, and asked his gentlemen to give Huo Nian homework and teach him how to draw.

Looking at his younger brother who came to cling to him almost every day, he was a little worried. How could her status be compared to the grandson's!

My mother is gone, and my father is not in the house, and my younger brother clings to her more and more now. But he grew up slowly, if he often came to the East Palace to look for her, he would think that she was gossiping.

His roots are still in the Duke's Mansion. People who stay away from the mansion will one day be isolated by the mansion.

"Xie'er, listen to what my sister said, you can no longer come to my sister's place often."

"Why? My sister doesn't want me anymore?" Without his mother in the mansion, Zhang Xie didn't want to go back even more.

"This is the East Palace, my sister has already left the house. If you come here often, people will gossip. You should get along well with your brothers and sisters at home, as well as the second and third bedrooms."

"No, I don't want to, I don't want to get along with them! No one of them can say a word for mother, I hate them!"

"Xie'er, you can't think like this..." Zhang Biyao tried to reason with him.

"I don't listen, I don't listen! My mother said you are my dearest person, let me listen to you, but now you don't want me!" Zhang Xie complained, and finally ran away crying.

Mother is gone, and the mansion is full of bad people, he doesn't want to go back. My sister didn't let him come to her anymore, so where else could he go?

Let the carriage go to my grandfather's house, and when I got to the gate, I remembered that the house of my grandfather's house was sold, and my grandfather's family moved to Zhuangzi.

Zhang Xie was stunned, not knowing where to go. After wandering outside until it was dark, I returned home hungry.

Going back to the mansion, it's past the meal time, and if you want the kitchen to cook the meals you want, you have to pay extra money. Zhang Xie was very angry. He had to pay money when he ate at his own house?

If you don't pay, you don't pay!

Thinking of all the grievances, he squatted down in a corner of the garden and began to cry.
