Chapter 72

Huo Mingzhu said a little more seriously, and then said with a smile, "I only use my cousin as a confidant to say these unpleasant words. My aunt should not blame me for being talkative."

It can be heard by everyone. Compared with Lin Ruyi, who really treats Yu Tong well and who deliberately puts pressure on her. Yu Tong's heart is both aggrieved and gratified. She turns to look at Huo Mingzhu and says with tears, "Mingzhu, it's hard for you to think about me like this. I've made a mistake once, and there won't be a second one."

"Well, that's it..." Huo Mingzhu nodded and heard the footsteps outside. She assumed that the old lady was coming. She pretended not to know and continued: "aunt, you don't know how worried the old lady is about you. She treats you better than my granddaughter. She's always in bad health. If you have an accident, she'll be very sad. I'm a granddaughter, I can't do anything. It's really useless. I just want to do something for my aunt... "

The sound of footsteps suddenly stopped outside the screen. Huo Mingzhu burst into tears and said with a smile, "anyway, I'll live in peace in the future. There's an old lady and my father around. You can take this as your home. It's all a family. What's the matter?"

"..." Yu Tong shook her head helplessly. Mrs. Huo just came in and saw that they were holding hands together and were sad. She coughed and said, "the pearl is right. Tong'er, you can live in this house with my old lady. No one dares to do anything to you. Anyway, my old lady is still alive! This family can still be the master! "

This is the first time that old lady Huo called Huo Mingzhu's name. Hearing Huo Mingzhu pick her eyebrows, it's really a wonderful thing. However, she pretended that she didn't know the old lady was coming. She was startled. She suddenly turned around, stood up from her chair and called politely, "old lady, are you coming?"

Her attitude of fear is more respectful than that of Huo Huaiyu and Lin Ruyi.

"Well." Old lady Huo looked at Huo Mingzhu, and for the first time she was not interested in sneering at her. Everyone likes to listen to good words, especially when she is old. She has neglected Huo Mingzhu for ten years, but she overhears Huo Mingzhu saying good things about her. Old lady Huo must feel sorry for her.

Instead of paying more attention to Huo Mingzhu, she went to Yu Tong's bed and sat down. With a straight face, she asked, "you girl, why are you so embarrassed? Are you just making a joke or a joke made by Bodhisattva? Why do you feel ashamed? My daughter's family is thin skinned, but she can't abuse herself in this way. Aren't you going to let your aunt and your parents give black hair to white hair? What a muddle

Old lady Huo criticized again. Yu Tong wet her eyes again and just lowered her head and wiped her tears. "Aunt, I didn't dare any more. At that time, I was too angry. So many servants looked at me and my cousin refused to forgive me. I felt that I had no way to live."

Huo Mingzhu doesn't know whether Yu Tong is going to blame Lin Ruyi or just casually. Anyway, old lady Huo hears something strange: "your cousin won't forgive me?"

Yu Tong about to know that he said something wrong, quickly changed his mouth and said: "no, aunt, my cousin didn't say anything. I feel I can't face her. It's like I've done something shameful. Now I think about it, I'm very sorry..."

It's more than regret. It's just a feeling of frustration. Listening to Lin Ruyi's words just now, every word, is all suppressing Yu Tong's heart. Even Huo Mingzhu can't listen to it. What's more, Yu Tong himself?

People can't bear the fact that what they haven't done has been framed and tried to seduce Huo Zhengde.

Old lady Huo snorted coldly and said, "hum, don't explain. I've been with your cousin for years, but I don't know her temper? She is so small-minded that her sister can't measure her any more. These years in the mansion, no one can offend her, everything should follow her heart. Your cousin has a good temper. Apart from being busy with official business, he refuses to argue with her after going back to the government. That's why she has such a bad habit now. If you argue with her, you won't get any good. Even my old lady can't help her... "

Mother in law and daughter-in-law have never been as close as mother and daughter in law. They all have to look at each other. Some of them are in front of each other, some of them are hidden deep, but they can't be tolerated. Whenever they seize the opportunity, they have to bring it out to let people judge whether the theory is right or wrong.

Huo Mingzhu feels that it's a pity that Lin Ruyi is not here at the moment. Otherwise, it's hard to say whether the quarrel will arise. But Huo Mingzhu, like Yu Tong, has found out a problem. This contradiction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is a very good starting point. Looking at his wife's mediocrity in the general's house, he doesn't know what the dirty twists and turns are.

After saying this, Mrs. Huo sighed, took Yu Tong's hand, patted her, and said, "if you take my old lady's idea, it would be better for a girl to be our Huo family's daughter-in-law. Unfortunately, your cousin has no fortune, and our Huo family has no fortune."

Huo Mingzhu looked at Yu Tong, and Yu Tong looked at her, her face turned red. Huo Mingzhu joked along with the old lady's words: "exactly. If my aunt can be my aunt, it's our Huo family that thanks Buddha."

"Pearl, you make fun of me! You're making fun of me with your aunt! I don't care about you! " He was shy and dry, covered his face with his hands, and buried his head in the pillow.

Huo Mingzhu continued to smile: "old lady, you see, my aunt is shy." She deliberately took this opportunity to get close to the old lady. Even if the old lady still didn't like her very much, her attitude was much better than before. She glanced at Huo Mingzhu's smile and said, "you're a girl too. What you should say and what you shouldn't say is a little proper."

Huo Mingzhu struck while the iron was hot, not moved by her unkindness. She frowned and apologized: "Mingzhu made the old lady angry again, but what Mingzhu said just now is really what she thought. Although her mother treats Mingzhu generously, Mingzhu's surname is Huo all the time. In the border town these years, she always hopes to add some younger brothers and sisters to her family, so as not to be left out in the cold. Who would have thought that my mother was only guarding my sister and could not open up branches and leaves for the general's mansion? The old lady's temper was very good, and she could not be angry. She treated my mother and Huaiyu the same as before. She really made Mingzhu feel ashamed. "

What she said just poked into Mrs. Huo's heart. It was her heart knot for more than ten years. If it had not been for Lin Ruyi's mother's family, she would have had an attack long ago. How could she have tolerated the general's house being cut off?

"A few days ago, two aunts and their relatives came from afar, and the old lady's happy Pearl was in her eyes. If she came to the house to be more lively, the old lady would have more happiness and longevity." Huo Mingzhu continued to flatter and put it very beautifully.

No matter how hard-hearted Mrs. Huo was, no matter how unhappy she was with Huo Mingzhu, she couldn't argue. She sighed, nodded her head and said, "Oh, I didn't expect that you, Mingzhu, are a sensible child, more sensible than your mother and sister..."

In Mrs. Huo's eyes, who follows her, who is more in line with her will, who knows the truth.

Huo Mingzhu did not fight for this right or wrong, but only for the old lady's favor. She still stood with a low brow, without a trace of joy. She only maintained her original docile appearance, and said: "it's hard for the old lady to work hard for this family these years. Although Mingzhu has reached her hairpin, she can be regarded as an adult, but she still has many reasons to ask the old lady for advice, and also ask the old lady to teach Mingzhu more..."

Having said that, how can Mrs. Huo refuse? Although she is a little depressed, it's also because of Lin Ruyi. Mrs. Huo sighs again: "well, for your child's sake of being sensible and obedient, my old lady will love you more, but you've been away for a long time. Don't compare my old lady with your grandmother, the Marquis's wife of your grandmother's wealthy family, I know more than I do. Your grandmother loves you again. "

Huo Mingzhu's grandmother, Mrs. Lin of Pingyang Marquis's residence, was not satisfied with Huo Mingzhu all her life. Huo Mingzhu had expected that she would say so, so she said with a smile: "old lady, my mother's surname is Lin, but I'm Huo. If I get married in the future, my mother-in-law's family will look after your father and old lady's face. Besides, my mother-in-law has passed away. Even if I have my mother, I can be with my grandmother's family, It's a long way off. The old lady is my own grandmother. "

"It's pitiful to say that. I can't bear to hear this old woman..." Mrs. Huo didn't know whether to believe it or not. She only used her hand to tuck Yu Tong in the corner of quilt. Seeing Yu Tong turning around, she said with a smile: "don't be shy, tong'er. Sooner or later, you will get married. If you can be my general's daughter-in-law, wouldn't you be more happy? Your parents can rest assured. "

Old lady Huo is still thinking about Yu Tong. She is not interested in Huo Mingzhu's loyalty. Huo Mingzhu doesn't care about it. She knows the reason. She overheard Lin Ruyi saying that when she was born, the general's house asked the magician to do a divination. She said that her life was very fierce. If she stayed in the general's house, it would bring blood. Therefore, no matter how soft Mrs. Huo is to her, she will never forget the bad fortune.

But it doesn't matter. Huo Mingzhu never thought how much friendship she really wanted to have with anyone in the general's mansion. She never forgot what she wanted to do once again.

Huo Mingzhu's heart is clear. It seems that the old lady really wants to take concubines for Huo Zhengde. Yu Tong may not be the best choice, but the Bodhisattva's signature says that Yu Tong has a life of wealth and wealth, and that she is prosperous and has many children. How can Huo not be moved?

For the sake of the Huo family's incense, I'm afraid old lady Huo can't even sleep well, can she?

Huo Mingzhu continued to look on coldly. She really has foresight and knows how to return blood with a tooth for a tooth. In the past, old lady Huo despised her vicious life and abandoned her in the border town for ten years. Now, she also treats her in her own way. With a nonsense Buddhist signature, she pulls Yu Tong into the general's mansion and becomes the daughter-in-law candidate that old lady Huo yearns for, Thinking about the fragrance of the Huo family from her stomach

Old lady Huo can not care about anything, but she is most concerned about the continuation of incense in Huo's family. She can't forget the collapse of the sky.
