Chapter 18 Borrowing Money
"Hehe, Qiqi, good morning." After receiving her suspicious look, Wang Shaojie greeted her dryly and awkwardly.

Huo Qiqi snorted coldly, but didn't say much.

Wang Shaojie felt that he had escaped a catastrophe, and secretly rejoiced in his heart.

"Qiqi, are you eating meat buns today?" Huo Yichen asked her with a smile.

"Yeah." Huo Qiqi still liked this brother very much. "Brother, eat more later."

Obviously eccentric!The old man couldn't bear to stare at Huo Qiqi, so he stared hard at Huo Yichen.

Huo Yichen only had Huo Qiqi in his eyes, "I'm already tired enough on the way back, and I was so busy last night, why don't you sleep a little longer in the morning?"

"Young and in good health, you can rest overnight." Huo Qiqi replied with a smile, nodding her head.

Wang Shaojie shook his head and looked at the white cloth wrapped around her forehead, "I said Qiqi, your forehead is not broken, it is unlucky to be wrapped with a white cloth."

"Why is it unlucky? There is no wound on Qiqi's forehead, but there is blood congestion in her brain, which is an internal injury. It's cold, so she should be wrapped in a white cloth." The old man gave Wang Shaojie an unhappy look.

Wang Shaojie was so frightened by his bull's-eye stare that he didn't dare to speak again.

The Duke Protector is famous for being unreasonable in the court, and even the Holy Majesty and the Empress Dowager have nothing to do with him.

Come on, let him be honest.

"Grandfather, Qiqi, are you feeling better?" Huo Yining and Huo Yixing came in from outside with smiles, and Huo Yining greeted worriedly.

"Back to the capital, I probably won't die." Huo Qiqi looked as if he couldn't bear to look back on the past.

When the old man saw it, he immediately became angry, "You boys are useless at all, one only knows about romance, one gets into the eyes of money, and the other knows how to read dead books, and you can't even protect Qi Qi. Hold on, are you still willing to eat?"

He scolded three times at once, and even Huo Yichen was affected.

The three brothers bowed their heads, pretended to be deaf, and no one answered his words.

The old man became even more angry.

"Grandfather, getting angry hurts your health. It took me a lot of effort to pull you back from the gate of hell. You must not be angry again, and don't burn yourself down in a moment of inattention." Huo Qiqi pointed at the table with chopsticks and said slowly.

"My dear grandson, if you come back, grandfather won't fall down. It's them boys who are not up to date. I'm scolding them. Grandpa is not angry at all." Became an amiable smiling face.

It really deserves to be favored, the same person does not have the same fate!Wang Shaojie looked at the three brothers who were being trained sympathetically.

"Why isn't that boy Yi An coming? If he doesn't come, the food will be cold." The old man yelled.

"Grandfather, we are here." Just as he was speaking, Huo Yi'an led Huo Wuyou into the door.

"Serve the food." Huo Qiqi ordered.

The maidservant in the mansion heard this, and hurriedly started serving dishes.

"One person, one cage, is there too much?" Huo Qiqi lazily said when he saw Wang Shaojie and the old man scrambling for each other.

"That's too little." The old man stuffed a steamed bun directly into his mouth, and when he heard her words, he expressed his dissatisfaction with a bitter face.

Wang Shaojie is not a good bird, he thinks the same as the old man, and is going to fight for more speed.Who knows, Huo Qiqi actually made such a broken rule.

Huo Yixing couldn't help laughing, and deliberately took a small bite, "In this case, it's more cost-effective to taste carefully."

"Everyone is full of fat, why eat so much? My old man is weak, shouldn't you be more filial to the old man?" Mr. Huo yelled confidently.

Huo Yining and the others glanced at each other, the brothers' bodies were all thin, where was there any fat on their bodies?The old man is opening his eyes and talking nonsense again!

"Grandfather, I stewed chicken soup on the stove, a whole fat chicken. Since grandfather ate so much in the morning, I'll forget about the lunch meal." Huo Qiqi added with a smile.

Mr. Huo stretched out his hand in front of Huo Yining's steamer, and immediately retracted it like an electric shock.

"Good grandson, you also made the chicken soup?" He asked Huo Qiqi flatteringly.

"The chicken soup stewed with gastrodia elata and astragalus is as nourishing as ginseng, and with kun noodles, alas, it's a pity that grandpa doesn't appreciate it, so let's forget it. Wait a minute..." Huo Qiqi sighed deliberately.

"It's better to eat less in the morning. That's fine, just a cage like this." The grandfather said boldly, but his eyes turned around several grandchildren with nostalgia.

"Uncle Qi, your cooking skills are great." Although Huo Wuyou was young, he had already wiped out the six little buns in the steamer on the table.

"That is." Huo Qiqi replied triumphantly.

Come on, the chat was dead again.

After breakfast, everyone dispersed, busy with their own affairs.

The old man purposely ran to the kitchen to take a look, and when he smelled the rich aroma of chicken in the air, he went back to his room to lie down in satisfaction.

"Wang Shaojie, borrow some money." Wang Shaojie wanted to slip away after dinner.But Huo Qiqi quickly caught him.

"Where do I have money?" Wang Shaojie replied with a sad face. "The Lord Protector spoils you so much, are you still short of money?"

"My private money has been squandered. Don't tell me, you don't know about it. On weekdays, you don't spend less of my money. At critical moments, if you are not brother enough, don't blame me for turning your back on me." Huo Qiqi stared at him.

"Two hundred, I can only give you two hundred. You also know my situation, I'm the elder brother, it's fine if I'm a bit of a jerk, I have to leave some silver for my sister as a dowry." Wang Shaojie replied with a mournful face.

"Don't worry, if you behave well, I'll take care of your sister's dowry." Huo Qiqi's face softened a little, this kid hasn't gotten home yet, and he knows how to protect his sister, so he still has a conscience.

"Huo Qiqi, let me tell you, you're dead." Wang Shaojie was furious, "A friend's wife should not be bullied. I don't have a daughter-in-law, but I only have one younger sister. A younger sister is more important than a daughter-in-law. You can harm anyone. You are not allowed to harm my sister. Otherwise, I am in a hurry with you, and there is no need to be friends."

"It's as if I don't care about you as a friend. You can figure out how much you have cheated me every month?" Huo Qiqi looked at him sideways, and kicked him by the way, "Who said I want to harm you? Sister, I treat you as a brother, and a brother's sister is not my sister. Besides, who told you that I like beauties, but I like men. "

"Say it again?" Wang Shaojie stared at her in surprise.

"I'm not interested in your sister." Huo Qiqi gave him a blank look, "Of course I'm not interested in you."

"That's good." Wang Shaojie's face was ugly, he didn't even know whether what Huo Qiqi said was true or not. "200 taels is really a lot, and you know the situation in our mansion."

"Okay, 200 taels is 200 taels. We must let them lose their pants today." Huo Qiqi rubbed his hands with a smile and said.

"What, you're going to gamble just after you came back?" Wang Shaojie immediately jumped up when he heard that Huo Qiqi asked for money for the purpose of going out to gamble.

"The 200 taels I borrowed from you. If you lose, I will pay you back. If you win, I will give you double." Huo Qiqi gave him a blank look and said.

"That's not what I mean, Qiqi, I'll advise you only if you're a brother, nine out of ten bets, there are masters in the casino." Wang Shaojie persuaded her earnestly.

 Store it for another two weeks.
