"Don't worry, let me do this. He is a businessman. I am the most familiar with the businessman in Shengjing City. It's quite easy to find him."
"Then please give me my word." Huo Jingchen patted Wen Jianzhou on the shoulder and smiled.
Wen Jianzhou pretended to be angry and said, "Why are you doing so politely with me? Are you still a good brother?"
"Of course." Huo Jingchen smiled and poured him a cup of tea.
Wen Jianzhou hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, looked at Huo Jingchen with his eyes, and tentatively said: "It's okay, I have something to ask you."
"What's the matter?" Huo Jingchen thought casually.
Wen Jianzhou smiled and said, "Well, if I get angry with Xier in the future, will you stand on my side?"
"What do you think?" Huo Jingchen looked at him with a smile and said slowly: "You are not messing with Xi'er, right? Why, what have you done?"
"No, I'm just talking." Wen Jianzhou was shocked and pretended to be angry. "I originally thought that you were my good brother and would definitely help me, but I never thought that I would forget my brother with a wife. I am really
I'll see through you, for nothing, I'll leave."
As he said that, Wen Jianzhou actually left quickly.
Huo Jingchen thought he was just a joke at first, but he didn't expect that he would really leave, but he was a little confused. When he thought of his strange expression just now, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
At this time, a maid in green came in, holding a bowl of hot chicken soup in her hand.
"Young Master, this is the chicken soup specially brought by my servants. You can try it."
"Take it over." Huo Jingchen's lips curled up. He was about to take the chicken soup, but he found that the maid rubbed his palm intentionally or unintentionally, his face slightly closed, and he looked at her scrutinized.
The maid bit her lip, but when she thought of the glory and wealth that was close to her, she was moved. A blush appeared on her pretty face, and her moist eyes looked at Huo Jingchen with affection. She wanted to speak but stopped, and her eyes were circling.
"Young Master, I have admired you for a long time." Seeing that Huo Jingchen did not move, the maid was overjoyed and thought he had such an idea, so she couldn't help but feel proud. Jiang Hexi was just like this. She didn't see that the eldest master was attracted by her. It seemed that this matter was true.
Can be accomplished.
Thinking of this, the maid became more and more shy and looked at Huo Jingchen admiringly, "I love the young master for a long time. My wife is always busy with the housekeeper and the shop outside, and she neglects the young master. Whenever I see the young master busy with political affairs, I feel very distressed.
I know that I have a humble background and cannot compare to my mother, but I am obsessed with the young master wholeheartedly. I don’t seek fame, but I just want to be able to serve my pen and ink by my husband.”
Huo Jingchen could no longer listen, waved his hand impatiently, and said with a blank expression: "Since you know that you are from a humble background, you shouldn't say these words, and you shouldn't slander your mother. A slave dares to think about it. Sure enough
He is brave."
When the maid heard this, her face turned pale. When she saw Huo Jingchen's sharp eyes, she knew that she was finished. When her legs were weak, she collapsed to the ground in an instant.
"With white!"
"I'm here." Hearing this voice that suppressed anger, he slammed into Bai and hurriedly walked in.
I saw a maid in green slumped to the ground, covering her face and crying.
When he saw Huo Jingchen's gloomy face and Bai Fu were in his heart, he scolded the maid for being ignorant and not to take him on his side if he wanted to get to power!
I wonder if my master hates these things the most? He is so unlucky!
"Master, my subordinate will take this person down immediately!" He and Bai Kuang expressed their loyalty, and Sheng pulled the maid up.
The maid knew that her fate was not good, but she was still unwilling to accept it and cried: "Young Master, you can't treat me like this. I know that my mother is jealous, but you are the young master in the mansion, why should she control it like this?
You, I feel sorry for you too!”
"Yu Bai, are you dead? Why don't you block her mouth quickly!" A dark storm gathered in Huo Jingchen's eyes, and he roared with anger.
Yu Bai hurriedly took out a sweat towel, stuffed it into the mouth of the maid who was still shouting, and dragged her down.
Seeing that the person was leaving, Huo Jingchen took a deep breath and pressed his eyebrows with headache.
After a long time, Yu Bai walked back.
"Master, the man has already dealt with and will be sold tomorrow."
"Well, it's not advisable to open your voice at this time, and you'll cover your mouth tightly."
With Bai Ming, Huo Jingchen didn't want Jiang Hexi to know, but...
"Master, many people saw it when my subordinates took the people down just now. It is estimated that the mansion has spread now."
Hearing this, Huo Jingchen opened his eyes, immediately stood up and left, and walked back to the main house in a hurry.
As soon as he walked in, he saw Jiang Hexi holding a book in his hand, leaning against the soft collapse and watching carefully.
Even though he heard the noise of his coming in, Jiang Hexi didn't raise his head and was still looking at the books in his hand with relish.
Huo Jingchen sighed helplessly, feeling guilty, walked to the soft couch and sat down, hesitantly glanced at Jiang Hexi, but she didn't look up.
Huo Jingchen became more and more anxious and tentatively said: "Xi'er, have you heard anything just now?"
Hearing this, Jiang Hexi's movements of flipping through the book paused for a moment and said lightly: "I'm not deaf, so I naturally heard such a loud cry."
"Xi'er, it's all that maid who is not clean, I didn't touch her at all. She brought soup in under your name. Then I relaxed my vigilance. You must believe me, but I did nothing.
, absolutely nothing to be sorry for you.”
Jiang Hexi finally raised his head, and when he saw Huo Jingchen's nervous look, he snorted coldly, and he was indeed even more nervous.
Anyway, she couldn't read it anymore, so she put down the book, looked at Huo Jingchen with a smile, and said coldly: "Young Master Huo is really blooming with peach blossoms. Miss Zhao before and Princess Shero in front,
Now Princess Xiang has a maid. You might as well tell me how many admirers there are to open my eyes."
Huo Jingchen was stunned and frowned, "Xi'er, what Princess Xiang, why don't I understand what you mean?"
"Don't understand? Humph, Princess Xiang has been treating me openly and secretly today. My cousin said, it turns out that someone was an old acquaintance with Princess Xiang before. Princess Xiang treats you very well. If God hadn't done anything, maybe you would have almost been.
That's it, it turns out that I'm the one who is the extra one."
Seeing Jiang Hexi's self-pity, even though she knew that she might have done it on purpose, Huo Jingchen still slammed and said helplessly: "What are you talking nonsense? Princess Xiang and I are innocent. I have only seen each other a few times before.
I can't even remember what she looks like. How could it be involved with her? Now that we have our own family, we can't have any connection."
"Xi'er, what happened today is really just a coincidence. Just believe me once. I promise that this will definitely not happen in the future."
Seeing that Huo Jingchen had just almost swore, Jiang Hexi said mercifully: "Okay, I will forgive you this time, but if there is a next time, let's forget it."
"What does it mean?" Huo Jingchen's face tightened and he looked at Jiang Hexi. When he saw that she didn't look like a joke, he grinded his teeth and said, "Don't think about it, you are my wife, for the rest of our lives,
We will be husband and wife in the next life!"
Jiang Hexi said seriously: "Well, I'm not kidding you. You are the eldest son of Duke Huo's mansion, the emperor personally conferred great military achievements. He is a great hero of the Great Prosperity Dynasty, and I am just
An ordinary woman, you never lack a woman who loves you. There are not more than me, but less than me."
"This kind of thing is not the first time, nor will it be the last time. I don't need you to give me the so-called guarantee that there will be no such thing again. I just hope that if you get tired of me in the future, or you will fall in love with others.
, Then I beg you to tell me directly that I can accept all this.”
"Don't worry, as long as you tell me the truth, I will not stick to you, nor will I beg your family for a penny. It's just that, from now on, the two have nothing to do with, and the goods are paid."
Huo Jingchen turned black and grabbed Jiang Hexi's shoulder tightly, suppressing his anger, saying word by word: "Stop, I will only have you in this life, and I will never have two hearts, you will die of this heart.
Well, it seems that I am so spoiled to you on weekdays. If you don’t believe me, then I have to prove it with my actions.”
As he said that, Huo Jingchen picked up Jiang Hexi and walked into the room.
I was waiting anxiously at the door and waited for Rongyue and Xiyue when they heard it suddenly quiet inside. They looked at each other and became panicked.
But the few depressing sounds that came later shocked the two people who were about to rush in.
Rongyue and Xiyue both blushed and retreated to the distance, looking at their noses and their hearts, just thinking that they didn't know anything.

In the yard of Mrs. Huo Guogong.
Duke Huo was busy with official duties today and was only rushing back to his house when the night was dark.
"You are back, come here quickly and have a meal." When Duke Huo saw her husband's figure, he hurriedly greeted him and helped him take off his outer robe.
After washing his hands, Duke Huo took the towel handed over by the maid next to him, wiped it carefully, and walked to the table.
I saw two plates of watery green vegetables on it, and said in surprise: "Where did the green vegetables come from in the winter?"
Mrs. Huo smiled and said, "It was planted in Xier's farm. She has told me the method and wants to share your worries."
As he said that, Mrs. Huo said what happened today.
Duke Huo sighed: "She is intent, but Brother Chen has married a good wife. If you give her more good things on weekdays, just treat it as my father's will."
"That's natural. Xi'er is my daughter-in-law whom I finally hope to come back. I will naturally take her." Mrs. Huo looked at her husband with a angrily look, picked up a piece of winter bamboo shoot and put it in Duke Huo's bowl, "Why is it so late today?
