Chapter 147: Just around the corner(1/2)
Huo Bao greeted Xue Jin and said to Xiuxiu, "This is Uncle Seven's eldest daughter, Jin Jie'er..." He said to Jin Jie'er again, "You are a fellow student, just call your sister..."
"Sister Xiu..." Jin Jie'er was blessed.
Seeing her wearing a golden collar, round and smooth, she looked very blessed, she couldn't help but like, "My sister is so beautiful..."
Such a good daughter was sent to be a child bride, and Mr. Xue Qi was so cruel.
Fortunately, I took it back.
The same gift was given, but the satin changed to bright colors and the silver collar was replaced with a pair of gold bracelets with bells.
It’s not that you favor one and the other, but that Niu Niu is filial.
Although the girls have different generations, they are almost a few years apart.
Xiuxiu is a little devil, and the other two were sent to her in-laws' house to raise her early and then left behind. The other was disgusted and abandoned; the other was witnessing her father's death and mother's death, and they were not innocent children who were ignorant of the world.
They all have a good relationship with each other, but they quickly get close to each other.
...
Huo Bao pulled Aunt Huo Liu down and said that Mu Ying was born: "No one can take care of such a young child in Chuzhou, so I thought of Aunt Liu..."
Aunt Huo Liu first felt pitiful, but then she was so happy.
She never gave birth to children in her entire life, and all she dreamed of was to pass on the Huo family's descendants.
In the early years, the widow and sister-in-law ate theirs and wore theirs, but they kept the couple from thieves and prevented their son from getting close to their uncles or uncles.
Now taking care of Niu Niu and Sister Xue Jin, but it is different from the little boy.
She pulled Mu Ying closer.
Both seven years old, Mu Ying is thin and small. She looks half a fist smaller than Niu Niu and Jin Jie'er, and her arms are small, and she feels like bones.
Mu Ying was reserved and didn't know how to call people, so he looked at Huo Bao.
Huo Bao looked at Mu Ying and said, "This is my aunt... You are as old as Niu Niu, just call her grandma with Niu Niu!"
I’m embarrassed, I’m not an adopted son, but also have many nephews.
But you can't let Mu Ying call him uncle. It's really awesome to Huo Bao and Niu Niu's generation.
Aunt Huo Liu is over 100 years old, and she is also the age of being a grandmother at this time.
"Grandma!" Mu Ying shouted with a little timidity.
"Hey! Good boy, when you get home, you will be with your grandma in the future, no need for outsiders!" Aunt Huo Liu slowed down her voice.
Huo Bao joked, "Grandma Sixth has a new grandson, but she forgot her old grandson!"
Aunt Huo Liu patted him twice and said, "A man who is about to get married is still competing for favor with the little baby? I can't forget your old grandson. I prepare wedding dresses for your elder brother, and even your share is prepared..."
Huo Bao blushed, but bowed with both hands and bowed to Aunt Huo Liu to thank him: "I'm sorry, Grandma Liu has troubled me!"
He was only fifteen years old, and the girl from the Wang family had not had enough time to get married, so she waited for two years. However, the horse foal was really old here, and she agreed that Huo Hu would give birth to his grandfather's filial marriage in October.
Huo Bao thanked me for this on behalf of his brother.
Aunt Huo Liu took him up and said, "I'm just staring at some trivial things here. The silver was prepared by your fifth grandfather. I ask someone to help arrange the decent things in Jinling... Even with your side, your fifth grandfather will be worried in the future. If you look back, you should be filial to your fifth grandfather. He has been worrying about your brothers a lot!"
Huo Wu had already said that he regarded Ma Juzi as his daughter, and did what he said, so he prepared a dowry for Ma Juzi that was similar to that of Ma Village Master.
In addition, the ten carts of dowry given to Ma Juzi by the Jiuye who was not exposed. Ma Juzi's dowry cannot be said to be rich enough to rival a country, and it is no less than that of a clan's daughter surrendering.
When the marriage was agreed, Huo Hu was a son-in-law and could not give a betrothal gift.
But Huo Wu had only a few younger generations, so how could he bear to let Huo Hu be despised?
Even with a foal, no matter how generous the dowry is, without a betrothal gift from a family, it is easy for people to talk to behind the scenes.
It is still the door-to-door visit, but there must be a betrothal gift.
Also, because of the dowry of a foal, the tiger's betrothal gift should not be too thin.
The elder Huo Wu was very tragic and took a lot of money to Jinling and asked Mr. Deng to buy the decent things in the betrothal gift.
The two brothers Hu Hu and Huo Bao are both married.
Huo Hu is like this, and even if Huo Bao cannot match, there will be no difference, otherwise it would be like to be slow to treat the Wang family.
This money is spent too much, and it is just a grandson, so it can be achieved.
Aunt Huo Liu saw it and could not help but mention Huo Bao.
Huo Bao nodded with gratitude: "Well, my grandson will be filial to Grandpa Five and Uncle Bao in the future, and to Grandma Sixth..."
...
Settling down Xiuxiu, Mu Ying, and Huo Bao uncle and nephew came out.
Aunt Huo Liu personally sent it out and arrived at the door, and then he was a little uneasy and said: "Xiaobao... It's different now than in the past... If my aunt wants to take her heirs, can she only choose from the descendants of the Huo family..."
Huo Bao was puzzled: "Aunt Liu heard what he said?"
The fifth house of Huo’s family in Nanshan Village is Huo Wu’s closest relative.
Now all people have built yards in the ancestral home of Binjiang to show that the leaves fall and return to their roots.
Even the second room with only an orphan and the fourth room with only one widow are no exception.
Compared with the relationship between these couples and Huo Wu, the second great master's lineage is one level further away from other Huo people.
Someone is paying attention to the beating of Aunt Huo Liu?
"It's the tribe here. I've found out here... I've brought the child a few times in the past ten days. It looks really not good. I first said that I'll send my son to my aunt as his heir, and then brought some nephews. My nephew came over to let my aunt see him... I also picked up Niu Niu's life, oh, what's the matter? When I saw Sister Jin brought a golden collar, I asked about Sister Jin'er's marriage..."
Aunt Huo Liu mentioned these people and couldn't help but be angry: "Is it ridiculous to ask about my aunt's private room? Is it ridiculous? Does my aunt have a private room? What does it have to do with them?"
Huo Baoke still remembers the water battle case when his father just arrived at the Binjiang River.
The Huo clan members are not all honest people.
"Aunt Liu, don't pay attention to them. Next time I come, Aunt Liu will chase her away... Except for the second master and the one in Jinling, other people in Huo have all given five yards, so there is no need to make face for them! As for the heir, my father said nothing, let Aunt Liu feel the same..."
"Then... can Xiaobao ask your father for your aunt... I don't want to have an inheritance, but I want to take over a grandson? In our room, you are the only one of your 100-year-old brothers... I can't really be cruel to let him become a lonely ghost..."
Huo Baishui, Aunt Huo Liu's nephew, Widow Huo's parent-child, and her mother and son died when the army broke into the village.
Aunt Huo Liu did not make any decisions on the fly, but it was hard to go directly to find my uncle to talk about it, and I waited until today.
Huo Bao replied: "I told my father to go... If Aunt Six's will, my father would not stop him..."
Aunt Huo Liu also knew that Huo Wu was the most protective of his shortcomings, and respected and praised him because he was devoted to Niu Niu. He hurriedly said: "Auntie, just ask first, and you are not in a hurry to adopt him... and wait until Niu Niu gets older..."
The promise Huo Wu gave before was to raise Niu Niu and grow up.
This is because Aunt Huo Liu was worried that she would adopt her son too early and she felt biased and would not care about Niu Niu.
Huo Bao nodded, saying nothing about Aunt Huo Liu's adoption now.
Even if I know that Aunt Huo Liu is kind, people's hearts are biased.
Niu Niu is the only girl in Huo Bao and Huo Bao in the two generations. She has lost her father and mother and has no brothers and feet, which is really pitiful.
It’s impossible to let Niu Niu suffer grievance for the sake of her shadow-lost descendant.
However, Aunt Huo Liu is soft-hearted and needs to protect her.
Huo Bao came out of Aunt Huo Liu and sent Huo Bao back to the camp first.
Huo Bao has a low seniority and has no room for talking about relatives.
Huo Bao went directly to the county government to find Huo Lin.
"Tell those people in the Huo family that if someone else goes to Aunt Liu's house to disturb you, they will all be punished for being 'indisciplined', and the whole family will be in a hard labor camp for service!" Huo Bao explained directly, very rude.
These people were concentrated for more than ten days, after Huo Wu left.
Huo Lin stayed in Binjiang and said that he was not aware of this matter at all. He was wrongly obsessed; if he knew this matter and let it develop, he would have bad intentions.
Huolin blushed and explained: "I asked someone to send a message back before, and they were not allowed to go there, and they would not listen to advice."
Some of these people are uncles of Huolin and some are brothers of other tribes.
Huo Bao frowned and said, "If you don't listen to advice, don't advise, just act according to the rules! My elders and niece live there, as well as Uncle Xue Qi's eldest daughter. Someone peeked at them and they all questioned them according to the 'indiscipline'!"
Speaking of this, he paused: "If Uncle Lin is concerned about his clan members and does not want to be troubled, I will entrust Aunt Liu to take care of County Magistrate Zhu! The old and young over there can never be wronged!"
Huo Lin was so embarrassed that he hurriedly said, "Don't bother County Magistrate Zhu, I will deal with this matter myself!"
Huo Bao's eyes were filled with doubts.
If Huo Lin was concerned about this and that, and indulged these people, the blame would be on his father.
These Huo clans are very brave.
When my father first arrived in Binjiang, he had not yet recognized his relatives with the second grandfather, so those tribe members dared to cut off the canals of Juren's family under the banner. They were all guys who did not bother to cause trouble.
"There is another matter, is it that Uncle Lin personally inspected or that of the county magistrate Zhu?"
Huo Bao thought about it and asked directly.
No matter whether the second master is relying on his seniority or not, Huo Lin has chosen to stand on his father's side from the beginning. Whether it is passively conscious of current affairs or proactively making choices, it is rare.
