Empress Dowager Empress Dowager

Chapter 28 A Pair of Sluts

However, no matter how resentful Huo Huaiyu was, she knew how to measure it. She threw Huo Mingzhu's birthday gift, not only would she not give face to her sister, but also to the Ninth Prince, and she would get a very bad reputation in front of all the guests.She had no choice but to suppress the dissatisfaction in her heart and sneak into the guests.

Huo Mingzhu sat on her knees, and her aunt Li was giving her hairpins. Although she should kneel and worship her parents, Huo Mingzhu still had her grandmother and maternal grandmother present, so she left several seats in the front direction, and the Ninth Prince Bailizong Lawyer has a distinguished status, so he must be invited to the seat.If he can come to watch the ceremony, the whole Huo family and Pingyang Hou's mansion will probably feel that it is full of splendor, and no one thinks it is wrong.

Because of this, when Huo Mingzhu was saluting, he looked straight ahead and always inadvertently met Shang Baili Zonglu's eyes. He looked at her with a smile, as if teasing and sincerely watching the ceremony.In short, Huo Mingzhu is always uncomfortable.

After the process of changing clothes and changing clothes, it's time to pick words for Huo Mingzhu.However, although Huo Mingzhu is fifteen years old, she has never promised to marry, so this procedure can be saved and will be discussed later.

Then, listening to the teachings of his parents, Lin Ruyi and Huo Zhengde sat on the seat of the master, and accepted Huo Mingzhu's kneeling as a matter of course. Obeying the "Women's Precepts" and "Women's Rules", he has been so rigid all his life. Huo Mingzhu seemed to be listening carefully, but in his heart he thought he was farting. The word "father" was just what she called Huo Zhengde outside. From the moment he broke his heart, he no longer recognized Huo Zhengde as his father!
Huo Zhengde finished speaking, and soon came to Lin Ruyi's special performance. She held Huo Mingzhu's hand, and she shed tears before she could speak. Before making Huo Mingzhu cry, she wiped away her tears with a handkerchief , smiled and said: "Mingzhu, good boy, mother sheds tears because she is happy... My son has suffered from suffering since he was a child, and when he is away from home, it is inevitable that the mother will not take good care of him. In the years you have been away, mother has never slept peacefully. I feel so good, but today I saw that my son has reached the age of Ji, and she has completed the appearance of a girl that makes my mother happy. My mother is ashamed and happy. Mingzhu, mother has nothing to explain. I only hope that you will be safe and happy in the future. blessing."

Lin Ruyi's acting skills won unanimous praise from the guests present, Huo Mingzhu even saw someone crying with Lin Ruyi.

"Mingzhu would like to follow the teachings of her father and mother, and hope that her parents will take good care of her body. Don't worry too much about the child. The child is just old enough to cause troubles for the parents at home. Please forgive me." Huo Mingzhu bowed down and bowed again. It saved Huo Zhengde and Lin Ruyi's face, and also earned him a name of filial piety.

"Good boy, what did you say? The General's Mansion is your home, and your father and mother are your lifelong support. Don't say that you are still married for Xu. Even if he gets married at sunrise, he is still a good child of his mother. How come?" Are you going to trouble me?" Lin Ruyi smiled and said, she is the most virtuous person in the eyes of the world, if it weren't for Huo Mingzhu's Jiji ceremony today, maybe she should be the guest of honor, because she has a reputation for virtuousness .

Huo Mingzhu responded with a full mouth and raised a smile: "Thank you, mother."

Lin Ruyi agreed too quickly, after a while, she might regret what she said today, Huo Mingzhu's troubles are not small!

After the ceremony was completed, the last thing was to thank the guests. Huo Mingzhu first saluted her grandmother Huo Shi and maternal grandmother Lin Shi, and Zhengbin's aunt Li Shi. Lin Ruyi and Huo Zhengde inevitably led her to thank the guests one by one.

Others were fine, but when they arrived at Baili Zonglu's place, Huo Mingzhu couldn't smile anymore. Baili Zonglu had already stood up from the back of the chair, and at some point, he had an extra folding fan in his hand, and he tapped it lightly The palm of his hand doesn't look like a general, but rather has a bit of a literati air.

"Thank you Ninth Prince for your kindness to my little girl." Huo Zhengde's flattery was the loudest.

Baili Zonglu looked at Huo Mingzhu with a smile, as if to see what she said, but Huo Mingzhu had nothing to say to him after saluting, Baili Zonglu felt unwilling again, and asked with a smile: "I don't know Miss Huo?" Do you like the congratulatory gift from my king?"

Seeing Huo Mingzhu's indifferent attitude, Huo Zhengde hurriedly smoothed things over: "Your lord is here, and he even gave a congratulatory gift to an ignorant girl, which really terrifies me. The little girl is naturally very fond of it."

Hearing this, Baili Zonglu was not happy. He turned his eyes to Huo Zhengde, and asked with a half-smile: "How does General Huo know that Miss Huo has seen the congratulatory gift from me?"

"This..." Huo Zhengde slapped himself in the face, and hurriedly said: "The prince is joking, no matter what the prince gives, it is my daughter's blessing, how can she not like it?"

Huo Mingzhu liked to see Huo Zhengde embarrassed, but Baili Zonglu ignored Huo Zhengde's explanation and asked her directly: "Miss Huo, have you seen it?"

Huo Mingzhu was about to say no, and she didn't want to embarrass Huo Zhengde on this occasion, which would be detrimental to everything in the future. She smiled and was about to answer: "My lord..."

"My lord, the gift you gave to my sister is really unique, my sister likes it very much!"

A voice interrupted Huo Mingzhu, and a delicate pink figure stepped in from the side, holding Huo Mingzhu's arm.

Huo Mingzhu turned her head subconsciously, and saw Huo Huaiyu's shy and timid face, those innocent eyes looked at Baili Zonglu with a smile.

Heh, it was the first time that a disgusting couple of dogs and men met, and Huo Mingzhu had no choice but to cite this as a rare event after her rebirth.
