Marriage Beloved in Troubled Times: Madam Wants to Run Away from Marriage

Chapter 721

one year later.

On the day of Xiaoping'an's first birthday banquet, the Huo Mansion was decorated with lights and festoons, and it was very lively.

Because people in the entire sixteen provinces in the south know that Ping An is the only young grandson of Marshal Huo Ting and the treasure of the Huo Mansion, so no matter if they are big families in Jiangcheng or prominent figures in several nearby cities, they all come to participate in this event. banquet.

As the in-laws of the Huo family, the Su and Lan families set off early in the morning. There were more gifts than one family. They were dragged by cars, and they stopped in front of Huo's house like a long and mighty dragon.

Bai Zhilan and Fifth Madam greeted Huo Mansion at the door.

Seeing Su Ning and Mother Lan, Bai Zhilan smiled and took a step forward: "Look at you, you brought so many things here, the little guy is really lucky!" As she spoke, she cordially invited the two into the mansion.

Su Qingwan and Huo Xizhou were standing a little further inside the door. Huo Xizhou held a delicate milk doll in Huo Xizhou's arms. His eyebrows and eyes were very similar to Huo Xizhou's, but his face, nose and mouth were more like Su Qingwan's is carved in pink and jade, not to mention how cute it is.

Su Qing took a step forward at night, called Su Ning, and said hello to Mother Lan, and then smiled and asked the child to call: "Peace, call grandma."

"Grandma~grandma~grandmother" Ping An's mother-in-law called out childishly.

The one-year-old child can already speak some words, but the pronunciation is still not very accurate. After Ping An shouted, he stretched out his little hand in front of Su Ning: "Grandma, sugar~"

Su Ning has lived in Jiangcheng for a year, and the women's university has moved to Lincheng on the other side of the river. Su Ning is either busy there or comes back to take care of Su Qingwan and Xiaopingan. The relationship is getting closer and closer, and finally, it can be as relaxed and harmonious as a normal mother-daughter relationship.

Xiaopingan liked Su Ning very much, so he reached out to her for candy.

When Su Ning heard this, she almost lost her eyes with laughter, and responded repeatedly: "Okay... our little Ping'an is a clever ghost, so he will ask for candy at such a young age?"

The girl beside him hastily handed Pingan a candy.

Usually, Su Qingwan would not let Ping An eat too much sugar. The child's dental disease has not fully healed. Eating too much sugar is not conducive to the growth of the teeth and also affects the child's appetite. But today is a special day, so I let the child smile...

Su Zimo also came, pestering Huo Xizhou to give him a hug for Ping An, Ping An saw the shiny and shiny military and rank badges on Su Zimo's chest, and the chubby hand stretched out his hand towards Su Zimo past.

Su Ning told nervously at the side: "Zimo, be careful, don't fall and be safe."

Mother Lan watched this scene, and her eyes were full of envy. There are many children in the Lan family, but few are married. On the contrary, Lan Ningshu walked ahead of the older brothers. Soon, the child in my stomach will also fall to the ground, but...

Thinking of this, Mother Lan couldn't help but sigh again, the baby is about to be born, but the young couple still doesn't seem to have let go of the past!Huo Tianlang worked hard in the Lan family for more than a year, and Shu'er didn't show anything special, and even let him sleep in the guest room for a year, she almost couldn't bear to see her as a mother...

At this moment, the butler stepped forward and whispered in Su Qingwan's ear: "Young Marshal, Young Marshal's Madam, the Ninth Young Master came to congratulate you, and walked through another door to your yard."

Su Qingwan's eyelids twitched for no reason, and she glanced towards Huo Xizhou.

The housekeeper said again: "The commander-in-chief is not feeling well, so he asked the young commander-in-chief and his wife to entertain the ninth son on his behalf. He also said that the ninth son is a distinguished guest, so he must not be neglected..."

Huo Ting has always held the ninth young master as a "god". Every time the ninth young master comes over, he is afraid that the Huo family will not treat the ninth young master well.But because the ninth son came to Huo's house in the past year—mainly because he walked too diligently in front of Su Qingwan, and those who were a little more sensitive also saw something bright—the ninth master was clearly interested in Su Qing. Late intentionally.

This is a bit unacceptable.

But Su Qingwan has always abided by the rules, never met the ninth son alone, and his attitude was very clear, and although the ninth son showed his admiration for Su Qingwan, he never surpassed it, and never said what should not be said. What he said in public, Huo Xizhou didn't say anything, and it was even harder for the people around him to say anything.

However, in private, Huo Xizhou is also because of Jiu Gongzi who has eaten sour vinegar a few times. Hearing the news that Jiu Gongzi came to congratulate him, Su Qingwan was naturally worried that Huo Xizhou would not think well at the first moment.

Huo Xizhou was indeed a little unhappy all of a sudden——Master Jiu seems to be haunted by more and more ghosts?

But on an occasion like today, when someone comes with a gift, he can't drive him out, let alone that person, who really wants to do something, who can drive him away?
He could only stare at the butler sullenly: "He came here as soon as he came, what can I tell you to treat him well? Who is not a distinguished guest who came today?"

Su Qingwan originally wanted to ask Huo Xizhou to go with him to meet the ninth son, but when he heard what he said, she turned around and said to Su Ning, "Mother, please help me to be safe for a while, and I will go to entertain the ninth son. "

In fact, she has never understood what Jiu Gongzi wants to do. Over the past year, he has only come to her from time to time, bringing her delicious food, bringing her fresh gadgets, and inviting her to drink tea. Chat with her and more.

But no matter what the purpose of Jiu Gongzi is, as long as Jiu Gongzi doesn't do anything against her family, she can only continue to maintain a friendly relationship with Jiu Gongzi.

Su Ning frowned when she heard the words, and whispered to Su Qingwan, "Wanwan, I think that Ninth Young Master is mysterious and unpredictable, and he looks like a good person but not like a good person, so I asked your father to check it out." It's a pity that he, relying on the Su family's overwhelming information and newspaper network, has not found any information about him, Wanwan, you should be more careful when you make friends with this person."

Su Qingwan didn't expect that Su Ning would do this. She was surprised for a moment, but then she was deeply disturbed. If Master Jiu knew that the Su family would investigate him, wouldn't it be detrimental to the Su family?

"It's okay, I'll look for you later." After Su Qingwan finished speaking, she got up and walked out.

Huo Xizhou wanted to call her to stop, but it was a step too late. He hesitated for a while, but handed the child to Su Ning, and followed.

But because Su Qingwan had things in her mind, she didn't notice that Huo Xizhou followed, which made Huo Xizhou feel even more uncomfortable.

——Why does he feel more and more that the existence of the ninth son is a threat to his relationship with Wan Wan?

the other side.

Ninth Young Master has already arrived at the courtyard of Huo Xizhou and Su Qingwan, and he has come many times. He seems to have become the master of this courtyard. He doesn't see anyone at all. When he arrived, he picked a chair and sat down. Just call someone to serve tea.

The servant hurriedly brought up the tea and snacks, while he was sipping the tea slowly, his squinted eyes seemed to be admiring something, but where his eyes could see, there was nothing worth admiring at all...

It wasn't until he saw Su Qingwan and Huo Xizhou walking in one after the other that the expression of Jiu Gongzi returned to normal, and he didn't get up, just lay there lazily, with a meaningful smile hanging on the corner of his mouth, straight to the point : "Wan Wan, I came here today to congratulate you alone, can you avoid the dark-faced man next to you?"

In the last few times, his attitude towards Huo Xizhou has become worse and worse, and now he directly opens his mouth to drive Huo Xizhou away.

Huo Xizhou's face suddenly turned darker...
