Fight the Giants

  Chapter 691 Unbearable

  This time, the counties along the coast were plagued by illnesses caused by the storm. Huo Erhuai was afraid that people from other places would come over and affect Huojiaba's family, so he brought them all to the capital.

  Even Huo Wuniang's family lived in Huo Erhuai's house.

  A large family, do nothing every day, be a wealthy person in the family, and order the Huo family's servants.

   It gave Mrs. Yang a headache.

   It’s not that they can’t afford it, that’s right, it’s not comfortable for someone who moves into someone else’s house to point fingers at his own house.

  Before Huo Xi went to sea to find Mu Yan, but she was not in the mansion. Huo Wuniang and others wanted to find her, but they couldn't come to her. What can they say to Hou Shi and the others? Can I catch up with you for a few words?

  They also have self-knowledge. Without Huo Xi, no one knew them.

  As soon as Huo Xi came back, Huo Wuniang and others came to the door with the child.

Huo Wuniang brought Wei Ling and Wei He, Dafang Maoshi took her daughter Huo Zhu, Sanfang Niu took her two daughters Huo Fei and Huo Dan, and Sifang Du took her two children, Huo Qing, Huo Qing and Huo Dan. Ni.

  The three girls, Huo Zhu, Huo Fei, and Huo Dan, are all about the same age, and they are all ready to marry.

  These three girls came to the capital by themselves. After seeing enough of the prosperity of the capital, they were asked to go back to their hometown to find a mud leg to marry. Not to mention themselves, their parents were also not happy.

  Huo Ni is six or seven years old, still young. Don't worry about her marriage now.

   But it can't be helped that Mrs. Du has a grand vision. If her daughter is allowed to follow her second uncle in the capital and raise her well since she was a child, won't she be able to marry into a wealthy family in the capital in the future?

  No matter how much Huo Erhuai and Yang's express their hints, they will be ignored, and they definitely don't want to go back to their hometown.

   "Look at Xi'er, look at your current style, who would have thought that our Xi'er would be the prostitute of the Duke's Mansion!" The Mao family looked at Huo Xi who flew up the branch, and sighed with emotion.

   Originally seeing Huo Erhuai and his wife returning home with Huo Xi who behaved differently, they were just secretly jealous.

  Feeling that Huo Erhuai has a few pennies, he dresses up his daughter like a young lady in the city.

   I don't like it very much.

  But she also dressed up her own daughter in secret. She is also a descendant of the Huo family, so she can't be too far behind.

   But who would have thought that this Huo Xi is not a girl from the Huo family! With one move, he flew up to the branch, and he couldn't catch up with the horse.

  Huo Zhu and the others looked at Huo Xi enviously. Wei He couldn't even imagine that her family had also moved to the city and had a house in the outer city, but it was still not as good as this cousin.

  Their identities are far below that, but if they stay in the capital and marry a noble family in the future, then they can also enjoy such a life of hugging each other.

   They have their own thoughts in their hearts.

Mrs. Niu of Sanfang didn't want to come. Her two sons, the eldest is now working in Guangfengshui, and can earn more than a few dozen taels of silver a year. You can be a teacher.

  She was grateful and didn't want to cause trouble for her second elder brother, second sister-in-law and Huo Xi, for fear that Huo Xi would tire of them, which would be detrimental to the future of her two sons.

  But the two sisters-in-law dragged her away. I had no choice but to follow. The two daughters also want to come, and she herself has never been to the Duke's Mansion, so she also wants to come to see it.

  Since the fourth wife, Mrs. Du regretted it countless times. If she had not followed the law and married into a noble family, even if she was a concubine, she would still have such a life of serving slaves. But now that children are born, it is useless to think about it.

   Now the opportunity is at hand again. She can't miss it.

   "Xi'er, look at your cousin," Shi Du pushed Huo Ni.

"You see, your cousin has grown up so much, and you sisters haven't kissed much. It just so happens that she looks pretty smart. Xi'er, you might as well keep her by your side and let her follow you. It is enough for her to learn a little bit."

  Huo Ni was pushed back by her own mother, and she was a little nervous when she saw this cousin, who had become a lady from the noble family, look at her.

   "Tang, cousin..." He greeted timidly, wondering if he could call cousin again, for fear that Huo Xi would get angry.

  Huo Xi would not be angry with a child, so she smiled at her and asked the girl to bring her some fruit and snacks.

  Looking at Mrs. Du, he said, "Fourth Aunt, the maids around me are enough to do my best, and they all signed the contract. It's not appropriate to beat and scold me, and put Sister Ni by my side."

   Du Shi also heard that Huo Xi refused.

  I feel very sorry.

  If the daughter can live in the Duke’s mansion, not to mention that her daughter will go out in the future, she will be looked up to by others, and she won’t have to worry about her future marriage, and she can also come and go in and out of the Duke’s mansion from time to time by visiting her daughter...

   Not reconciled, he said again: "I heard that the Guogong Mansion opened an ethnology study, and even An An from the second brother's family was sent in. Can you see if your younger brother and sister Ni can help and send in?"

   Just look at An An from the second brother's family. Now that he has been in school for less than a year, he has been completely reborn. Obviously the same grandma, but An An looks very different from their brothers.

  Besides, he has two older brothers and sisters to help him, so his future prospects are not bad. The distance will increase.

  She also wanted to put the two children into the Zhang Clan School.

When it comes to the future of the children, Mao couldn't sit still, "Yes, yes, I heard that the Zhang Clan School has female students, and also accepts female students, can you send your sister Zhu to it too? "

  After Maoshi finished speaking, Niu couldn't help but stare at Huo Xi when he thought of his two daughters.

  Huo Xi looked at the three sisters, Huo Zhu, Huofei and Huo Dan. The eldest, Huo Fei, was fifteen years old, Huo Zhu was fourteen, and Huo Dan was thirteen. Seeing that they were all staring at him, she was a little embarrassed.

   "It is stipulated in ethnology that when girls reach the age of fifteen, they go home and wait to be married..."

   These three people are not young.

  Huo Fei was a little disappointed. This is her last chance, she wants to learn something like the noble lady in the capital, and also wants to stand out.

  It’s okay if there is no one to compare, there is a cousin in front of you to compare, not to mention the same as the cousin in the Duke’s Mansion, even if you are like her, she doesn’t want to marry back to the countryside.

   Before Mao and Niu spoke, Du pushed her daughter Huo Ni with joy, "Your sister Ni is not yet seven years old, she is just right!" She strongly recommended her daughter.

  Huo Ni was ashamed of what her mother said, why didn't she know that her mother could speak so well?

  Mao and Niu also feel sorry for their daughter, now that they have come to the capital, they no longer want to marry their daughter to the countryside.

  I can't wait to fill my daughter with skills that a wealthy family should learn like a duck.

   And Huo Wuniang was not reconciled to Huo Xi forgetting her family Wei He and Wei Ling, and pushed the two children towards Huo Xi.

  Huo Xi had a terrible headache.

  Unable to see Huo Fei and Huo Zhu crying in front of her, she felt soft-hearted for a moment, "I can't all go, let the younger sisters go, and the younger brothers should find another academy." It is impossible to send the whole family.

  The ethnology side accepts less female students, and sending a few over can liven up the atmosphere.

  Huo Xi still wants to make girls' studies and make some achievements.

  This era is too harsh on women. If they can have a place where they can relax when they are young, when they are not happy in the future, they can also feel a little warmth and pleasure when recalling the relaxed days when they were young.

  Huo Wuniang looked at her son and daughter, "Can't they all be sent?"

  Huo Xi sternly said, "Either send Wei Ling or Wei He, you choose one!"

  The voice was so cold that Mrs. Du originally wanted to ask if he could send his son and daughter with him, so he stopped talking, "Then my family will send Nier away."

   Mrs. Du thinks very clearly that her daughter looks somewhat spiritual. If she lives among the rich and powerful since she was a child, she may be able to marry a rich family in the future. And her son is afraid that he doesn't have the talent to study, so it's the same when he studies in an outside academy. If he has the ability, come and ask Xi'er.

   So the matter was settled.

   But Huo Xi is not without conditions.
