Chapter 267
“This fool!”
He turned his head, and in the darkness, those eyes, so beautiful they looked like the starry sea of the night sky, looked silently at the woman who had finally fallen asleep.
“Does it hurt?”
“…… It doesn’t hurt.”
The sleeping Wen Shuxu, subconsciously, dreamed a sentence.
This was a phrase she often said.
One that had been said often to herself, and to her children, over the past five years.
But how could it not hurt?
Wen Shuxu had just rolled over, and the pain involved in those injuries soon had her pale little face screwed up, but this night, she was really quick to stop hurting.
For, she felt a warm embrace that held her tenderly in its arms.
She even seemed to hear him coaxing her gently in her ears, “There, it doesn’t hurt anymore ……”
Then, he even patted her ……-
The old Huo family residence.
Because the three little ones suddenly came over here, the mansion was simply more lively than the New Year, and apart from the old man, the Huo family members who lived here, all showed extreme enthusiasm for their arrival.
“Mo Bao, can you go and sit at second uncle’s house? Second Uncle’s house has lots and lots of good food.”
“Bah, don’t go my little MoMo, you come with your brother to little uncle’s place, little uncle has a big yard and you can play with whatever you want inside.”
“P*ss off, they’re mine!”
“……”
Everyone was desperately inviting the two boys, just hoping they would go to their place and have some fun.
Of course, what was the real purpose of them doing this? That would be unknown.
Maybe, it’s really because these munchkins are cute.
Maybe, it’s because they want to please the Huo family, who knows?
“Everyone take it easy, we have to ask Grandpa first before we can decide where to go.”
Mo Bao is a little resourceful, after seeing so many people come to invite himself and his brother and sister, he was playing in the courtyard and immediately lifted up his grandfather.
Huo Yin also nodded in a high spirited manner.
Only little Ruo Ruo, who was still pouting, continued to dig her little taro, which, it was said, had been planted by grandpa.
The people saw that there was nothing else they could do but go and ask the old man for advice.
The old master was quite happy.
This old mansion was actually inhabited by the Huo family’s inner relatives. Back then, after the old man’s father had given birth to three sons after taking over this family business, he let them all live in this mansion so as to avoid centrifugal brotherhood.
Of course, the mansion was very large, and there were dozens of courtyards alone. If you didn’t have someone to show you the way, you wouldn’t be able to get out at all, and, if you had to walk, you wouldn’t know if you could finish walking in a day.
It was for this reason that the Huo family was not separated at all.
When the old man heard that everyone wanted to invite his grandson over to play, of course he was happy.
“In that case, then let’s go to little uncle’s place first.”
“Okay!”
Little Uncle Gong, who had received permission, was instantly as happy as a child in front of his own elder brother.
He then came out to bring those three little ones under a crowd of envious and jealous eyes.
“Huo Yin, Mo Bao, quick, your grandfather has given you permission to go to your little uncle’s place, come quickly.”
“Little Uncle?”
Mo Bao, who was playing in the garden in the main courtyard, heard these words and looked at his brother in front of him, “The one who gave me the golden lock piece last time?”
Huo Yin nodded with an expressionless face, “Mm.”
He didn’t seem to be in a high mood, and his cold little face seemed to have a hint of disgust on it.
Could it be that brother didn’t like this little uncle?
Mo Bao’s small brows knitted together.
At this time, some of the Huo family members who were outside the main courtyard were also starting to discuss the matter.
“This little uncle is really good at sucking up to people, before it was Huo Yin, now it’s this kid who just claimed his ancestors, is he trying to find a good path for his son?”
“No, if he doesn’t cling to the old man’s leg, I’m afraid that in the future, the third house won’t be able to get anything from the Huo family.”
It was the two daughters-in-law of the second house who were discussing the matter, and they were very indignant as they returned.
When it came to children and grandchildren, the youngest uncle’s family was indeed the most withered.
After so many years, there was only one son, who was still not very successful and was always hanging around outside.
“See how long he can hold it?”
“That is not necessarily, Huo Yin at that time also has not been his heart as a meat? It was only later when Huo Yin became ill that he went there less often, and now that such a lively and spirited child has easily arrived, how could they let go of such a good opportunity.”
The younger one, the daughter-in-law, became more and more furious as she spoke.
But after all, in the end, they could only hold back.
Because in the Huo family, according to seniority, apart from the old man, there was only this youngest uncle left.
Little Uncle Huo Zhenghua had also come to the garden with a smile on his face by this time, as he prepared to take the two children to his side of the courtyard.
“Mo Mo, Huo Yin, where are you? Little uncle is here, take your little uncle there for some delicious food.”
“……”
A word spread in this garden, Huo Yin, who was playing there, immediately stood up, a cold little face was actually full of frost.
Mo Bao was startled: “Huo Yin, what’s wrong with you?”
Chapter 268
However, Huo Yin didn’t say anything in the end.
So this little uncle came over excitedly, “Little MoMo, come quickly, let little uncle hug you.”
Mo Bao: “……”
That’s strange, his brother and sister are both here, just hugging him.
With a twinkle in his little fox-like eyes, right away, he ran to his sister and pulled up the little group who was muddling with the dirt.
“No, little uncle, I’m going to hold my sister, our sister is a little girl, she’ll be scared if she goes to a strange place.”
“Huh?”
Huo Zhenghua, who had come running happily, immediately had an old face fallen.
This child, he really wanted to hug.
He had never seen such a flexible child before.
“Little Uncle, then otherwise, you hug my sister? My sister is also very well behaved.” The little fox suggested with another smile.
Hugging this girl child?
How was that possible? She wasn’t a member of Huo’s family!
Huo Zhenghua was reluctant: “Forget it then, let’s go, let’s hurry over, your little grandmother is already preparing lots of delicious food.”
Then he took a few children with him and left.
Little Ruo Ruo was dumb and naive, not paying attention to this, hearing that there were delicious food, her innocent little face even immediately showed a very happy expression.
Only Huo Yin, still did not say a word.
However, I don’t know if it was because he was so interested in seeing his younger siblings, he didn’t show any other emotions the whole time.
Ten or so minutes later, the special mobility scooter within the mansion took the few of them to the entrance of a courtyard.
“Well, here we are, come, come, little uncle carry you down.”
Seeing that they had finally arrived at the entrance to the courtyard where he lived, Huo Zhenghua finally found a reason to carry the children in the car down one by one.
Of course, Mo Bao was the one who was more concerned.
The three siblings followed them inside, and Huo Zhenghua’s wife really came out with a lot of delicious food at once.
“Wow, lots of delicious food, I want to eat it.”
When little RuoRuo saw this, she, who was born to be a snacker, immediately went over to get it, wanting to take the plate of red cherries that looked very fresh and sweet and delicious
However, just as she went over, her little hand had not even reached it yet, this Huo Zhenghua’s wife actually moved the plate away.
“Come, come, little Yin Yin, Mo Bao’er, you eat, this is just flown in from abroad, there are not many at home, hurry over and eat.”
She surprisingly did not give little Ruo Ruo to eat, but directly brought to Mo Bao and Huo Yin in front of.
Little RuoRuo stood there looking at her little hand that had fallen short, and finally, her round eyes were red.
“Brother ……”
“RuoRuo, come here.”
Huo Yin saw his sister like this, and instantly that pretty little face went gloomy and beckoned for his sister to come over.
Mo Bao was also a bit angry.
He knew his sister was naive, and this time when he came over, in the front yard her sister had been more or less looked down upon by the people in the mansion, but she was so simple-minded and playful that she hadn’t bothered to pay so much attention.
But what is going on now?
These two old guys, just blatantly despising their sister like that?
Mo Bao tilted his little head and looked at this little grandmother with a smile, “Grandmother, if my sister doesn’t eat it, we won’t eat it, she’s our heart and soul.”
“What?”
“Hey, you old thing, why are you taking things away, can’t you see the little girl wants to eat? Come here, little girl, come here, little uncle will give you this plate of food.”
At the critical moment, it was little uncle Huo Zhenghua who reacted and scolded her wife.
In the end, his wife could only resentfully bring the cherries to Ruo Ruo again.
After the little ones had eaten and played in the courtyard for a while, it didn’t take long for the old man to send someone over to pick them up from the main courtyard.
This night, they were to sleep here.
It was a happy event, but unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, Mo Bao, who was usually in good health, actually started a fever.
“What’s going on? How come you have a fever for no reason?” The old man rushed over when he heard the news and was in a great hurry.
“I’m afraid it’s because I played too much in the courtyard this afternoon and got a cold from sweating, don’t worry for now, Master, I’ll call the doctor here.”
He Tingyu, the housekeeper, rushed to hear the news and hurried to comfort him, then made a phone call to the doctor.
Fortunately, after the doctor was called, he examined Mo Bao and found that it was nothing serious.
“Old Master, your grandson is indeed caused by catching a cold, don’t worry, I’ll give him some medicine and another injection and he’ll be fine.”
“Good, then you hurry up.”
The old man was relieved to hear this.
Little Ruo Ruo and Huo Yin were also awakened by the shock, the two little ones had been lying on Mo Bao’s bed very nervously, afraid that something would happen to him.
Especially Huo Yin, after seeing that his brother was sick, he stayed there in addition to worrying and also showing a hint of anger and fear, an emotion that was very rare to see.
“It must be them!”
“What did you say?”
In the quiet compartment, the child suddenly made such a headless and cold tone of voice, causing several people present to look towards him.
“Who are you talking about?”
“The old woman! It must be them who are harming the younger brother!”
Huo Yin added.
And this time, he looked even more frightening, his hands clenched, that cool little face like Huo Siji’s, shockingly white, only five years old, at this time, it was all shady and ruthless, it looked oozy
