Chapter 311
Li Yuanbai didn't seem to be so attached to medicinal wine after getting two taels of tea leaves.
Huo Qiqi stood up, but he followed suit without saying a word.
Huo Qiqi walked out, and he followed suit, and the movements of the two were unexpectedly tacit.
Qingfeng Minglang and the others couldn't help laughing secretly when they saw this.
"The sixth prince is going to the city too?" Huo Qiqi turned his head and asked.
"It's late, go back to the city." Li Yuanbai replied softly.
That said, the two are on the same path.But Huo Qiqi didn't plan to ride in the same car with him, she walked slowly to her carriage, and then climbed into the carriage.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she got into the carriage, Li Yuanbai actually followed her into the carriage.
"Is there something else for the Sixth Prince?" Huo Qiqi's face was sour, what the hell is going on with this person, why is he pestering her all the time?
"I have something to do." Li Yuanbai was very straightforward.
So Huo Qiqi swallowed the words he wanted to curse.
"You don't need to worry about the fish pond. But you have to be responsible for feeding the fish." Seeing that she was impatient, Li Yuanbai directly stated his plan without going around in circles.
"I'm not proficient in fish farming." Huo Qiqi lazily explained.
She really didn't want to have too much contact with Li Yuanbai if it wasn't necessary.
"Your fish is sick." Li Yuanbai took another step back. He seemed to be relying on Huo Qiqi, and he didn't give Huo Qiqi a chance to refuse. "I will also arrange people to go there, and you don't need to worry about small problems."
Speaking of which, Huo Qiqi is not unreasonable.She reluctantly agreed, "Since the sixth prince thinks highly of me, then I will try."
Hearing this, Li Yuanbai finally showed a faint smile on his face.But the two of them seem to have nothing to say so far.
After a quiet journey, the two of them didn't feel embarrassed at all. After the capital, Li Yuanbai took the initiative to ask the coachman to stop and get out of the car.
Huo Qiqi pretended to get off the car and see them off.
"Sixth Prince, go slowly. I have other things to do, so let's take a step first." Huo Qiqi smiled at him, turned and ran away without waiting for Li Yuanbai to speak.That hurried appearance, as if there is a ghost chasing after him.
Seeing this, Li Yuanbai couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth again.
After Huo Qiqi got into the carriage, he finally secretly breathed a sigh of relief.She is not stupid, Li Yuanbai's actions today are undoubtedly showing favor to her.However, Huo Qiqi did not appreciate this kind of gesture.
She's only doing business, she's not interested in royal feuds.
In ancient times, when imperial power was above everything else, standing in the wrong team would cost you your life.
The Lord Protector chose to remain neutral, which was exactly what she wanted.However, she and Li Yuanbai have gotten a little closer recently.
Huo Qiqi began to reflect on herself, but she did not regret it.Life cannot be smooth sailing.
She firmly believes that the road to the bridge is naturally straight. She and Li Yuanbai are just business partners. As for the others, she...
Just thinking about it all the way melancholy, the carriage soon stopped at the gate of the Duke Protector's Mansion.
"Seventh Young Master is back." As soon as the doorkeeper saw her coming back, he immediately went up to greet her, very attentive.
"Are there any guests at home?" Huo Qiqi asked suspiciously when he saw several cars parked in front of Duke Protector's Mansion.
"Go back to the seventh son, there are people from the ancestral house. Lord Huguo and the eldest son are talking to them in the flower hall." The boy replied respectfully, and when he mentioned the ancestral house, the boy's face clearly showed disdain.
Huo Qiqi didn't move when he heard the words.
Many memories quickly circled in her mind. The so-called ancestral house was actually the ancestral home of the Huo family.The Huo family's ancestral home was in the north of Qing Dynasty. Back then, almost all of the lineage of Duke Huo followed the old man to follow the emperor, and most of them died in battle later.It can be said that although Qingbei is also surnamed Huo, few people are close branches of the Huo family.
The old man loved the past, and after gaining a firm foothold in the capital, he sent people back to Qingbei to repair the Huo family's ancestral hall. At the same time, he also sent all the men of his lineage who died in battle back to their ancestral home for burial.
In order to allow the Huo family's children to have more outstanding people in the clan, Duke Hu Guo specially pulled out a large sum of money every year to build a private school for the clan.
As a result, there were more contacts between Qingbei and Duke Huguo's mansion.It stands to reason that their ancestral home has benefited from the Duke Protector's Mansion over the years, so they should be satisfied.But people's hearts are so strange. Many people get more, but want more.
No, in the past two years in the clan, not only some old guys came to Beijing to live in Duke Huguo's Mansion for a short time, but also some relatives and relatives began to come here frequently.
Maybe it's because of old age, Duke Hu has always been very happy with the people from Qingbei.The juniors of the Huo family were happy to see him, although they were unhappy, they wouldn't say much.
"If you don't want to see them, young master, just go to the Flower Hall and let me know." Seeing Huo Qiqi standing at the door and not leaving for a long time, Jing Mu thought that Huo Qiqi was bored with the people from his ancestral home.
Jian Yu also took a cautious look at Huo Qiqi, "They don't dare to get close to Young Master's yard anyway. Or, Young Master is starting a business in the yard these days?"
"No need." Huo Qiqi waved his hand, "Being a human being should not forget one's roots. If one comes from one's ancestral home, the master doesn't come over to say hello, isn't that reasonable? Let's go directly to the flower hall."
After speaking, she walked in with a smile.
Jian Yu and the others looked at each other, and they all saw the puzzlement in each other's eyes.In the past, the Seventh Young Master didn't have a good look at the people from his ancestral home.If it weren't for the Duke Protector's fondness for chatting with his clan members, the Seventh Young Master would have been angry and kicked him out long ago.
Today, the seventh son was uncharacteristically willing to meet people.
Huo Qiqi entered the courtyard, and before he entered the flower hall, he heard bursts of laughter coming from the flower hall.The old man's voice was even more majestic, loud enough to shatter tiles on the roof.
It can be heard that the old man is really in a good mood at this time.
Facing the old man's joy, Huo Qiqi secretly decided that as long as there were not too many people coming from her ancestral home, she would turn a blind eye and not make things difficult for those people.
However, in the end, it depends on whether the other party has eyes or not.
She walked slowly into the flower hall.
When the people who were joking in the flower hall saw her entering the door, the smiles on the faces of all the guests froze, and the lively chatting and laughing just now became hoarse.
"It's so hot outside, why are you still running outside?" Seeing beads of sweat dripping from her forehead, the old man cared about her distressedly, "Hurry up and ask someone to bring in more ice, so that Qiqi won't be overheated."
"Grandfather, it's already the beginning of autumn. It's not too hot at the moment. I'm sweating a little because I walked in a hurry." Huo Qiqi opened the silk fan and gently shook it. The old man sat shoulder to shoulder with an old man above him.
The old man was sitting very casually, but when he saw Huo Qiqi's eyes on him, he immediately started to feel cold all over his body, his body could not help but sit upright, and his expression became unnatural.
The other guests in the room were not much better than the old people. There were even two young people who were standing upright, but now their legs started to tremble.
The corners of Huo Qiqi's mouth curled up immediately, knowing that it's good to be afraid.
