Chapter 17

Huo Zhirou looked at the man in front of him and said politely: "Excuse me, is this Master Situ's home? The little girl Huo Zhirou was once taught by Master Situ.

Hearing Huo Zhirou's words, Situ Fan thought for a while, then nodded, and said, "Exactly, two girls, please come in!"

When Huo Zhirou heard Sikong Fan's words, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and he found the right door.On the other side, Chun Xiao whispered in surprise, "Miss, so you are here to find Master Situ!"

Huo Zhirou nodded. Last night, she thought that her mother had hired a master to teach her embroidery. The master's embroidery was extremely good, especially the Jin brocade craftsmanship. It was said that it was a family tradition. Unfortunately, there was something wrong with Master Situ's family. , resigned from the job of teaching Huo Zhirou.

Situ Fan brought Huo Zhirou to a room. At this moment, a woman walked out of the room and saluted Situ Fan.

Seeing the behavior of the woman in front of him, Huo Zhirou's eyes flashed. This woman seemed to be a servant. Just now, he saw that Situ's family was not in a very good condition, but there was a servant serving him. Why did he feel a little weird?

Situ Fan looked at the maid in front of him, and said in a faint voice, "Auntie is awake?"

"Master, madam is awake!" the woman said respectfully.

Situ Fan nodded and said to Huo Zhiju: "Miss Huo, please!"

Huo Zhirou suppressed his doubts and stepped into the room. What came to his nostrils was the strong smell of medicine in the room. At this time, Huo Zhirou's heart was even heavier. Master Situ was not in good health. Can she help?Is it true that you have returned without success today?
"Auntie, a lady from the Huo family has come to see you!" Situ Fan walked to the bed and said to the thin woman on the bed.

When Situ Ying heard Situ Fan's words, she cast her gaze on Huo Zhirou beside Situ Fan, and said in surprise, "Miss, it's...it's you!"

Huo Zhirou looked at the sick woman, bowed to her, and said softly, "Master Situ!"

Situ Ying signaled Huo Zhirou to get up, and said to Situ Fan who was beside her, "Fan Er, this is Miss Huo."

"Auntie, we just met!"

After Situ Ying said "um", she said to Situ Fan: "Fan Er, you go out first, I will catch up with Miss Huo!"

"Yes!" Situ Fan nodded.

After Situ Fan left, Situ Ying looked at Huo Zhirou and asked directly: "Miss, did you come to the humble house today?"

As soon as Situ Ying's words fell, Huo Zhirou's face became a little embarrassed, and he said: "It's like this, now Yuanmen is going to Jincheng to choose Jinjin, but it's a pity that the Huo family Jinjin master's craftsmanship is difficult to make Jinjin more delicate, I thought of Master Situ and wanted to ask for your help!"

When Situ Ying heard Huo Zhirou's words, she said helplessly: "Miss, it's hard for a young lady to go out now, how can she report her favor?"

"I know..." Huo Zhirou had a disappointed expression on his face.

Situ Ying looked at the girl who was getting longer and more beautiful in front of her, and she had an idea in her mind, "Actually, it's not impossible..."

"What way?" Huo Zhirou asked anxiously when she heard Situ Ying's words.

Situ Ying showed a weak smile, "Doesn't the little woman have a nephew?"

"He... Situ Fan?" Huo Zhirou had a strange expression on his face when he heard Situ Ying's words, "Isn't he a man?"

How can you embroider?Huo Zhirou didn't say the last few words.

When Situ Ying heard Huo Zhirou's words, she smiled and said, "This skill is inherited from the Situ family. As a member of the Situ family, he can naturally do it too!"

Huo Zhirou's eyes lit up when he heard Situ Ying's words.

Situ Fan was invited into the room by Chun Xiao, and when he heard what was going on, he refused without hesitation: "I'm sorry, Miss Huo, I can't help you!"

When Huo Zhirou heard Situ Fan's refusal, he became anxious, "Master Situ, I will not come to ask you for help unless it is absolutely necessary. Once the Huo family is out of this crisis, the whole Huo family will be grateful!"

When Situ Ying on the bed heard her nephew's refusal, she tugged on his sleeve in displeasure.

Situ Fan looked helplessly at his aunt, then at the girl in front of him, and still refused: "Miss Huo, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I have compelling reasons. I'm too busy for this task!"

Huo Zhirou looked at the resolute look on Situ Fan's face, sighed softly, and said, "I made it difficult for others!"

After Huo Zhirou and Chunxiao left, Situ Ying said to Situ Fan displeasedly: "Fan Er, why did you refuse?"

"Aunt, you forgot, I'm from Yuanmen." Situ Fan explained.

When Situ Ying heard this, a disappointed expression appeared on her face, "How nice this Miss Huo is, you! You won't seize the opportunity!"

When Situ Fan heard this, he couldn't laugh or cry, "Aunt, you..."

Before Situ Fan finished speaking, a maid came in.

"Master, there is a guest outside the door, and they say they are your friends!"
