Xu Ning's confinement is a happy event worthy of celebration. Huo Yunchao specially prepared a banquet for this purpose and invited the respected patriarch of the Huo family, Huo Tianxiang's family of four, and Madam Ma and her husband to have a drink together. !

Patriarch Huo and the elders felt very uncomfortable when they saw that Huo Yunchao valued Xu Ning and Xiao Fubao so much. They wanted to take the opportunity several times to let Xu Tuhu and Xu Ning and his daughter know how much Huo Yunchao had paid for them.

As a result, every time they started talking, Huo Yunchao cleverly changed the topic. In the end, the old patriarch of the Huo family took the initiative to stop talking and stopped others from trying to morally kidnap the Xu family father and daughter.

Well, the married daughter threw away the water. Huo Yunchao was already leaning towards the Xu family and his daughter. The more they blocked it, the more they pushed Huo Yunchao away from the Huo family.

Huo Yunchao breathed a sigh of relief. As a mature man with a wife and daughter, he didn't like to be taught how to live. He had the ability to take responsibility and was willing to pay for his own choices.

Patriarch Huo and others no longer tried to preach, and the dinner table became more and more lively, with laughter and laughter.

Little Fubao's feet were playing happily. Mrs. Chen and Aunt Ma couldn't put down the little guy, and they wouldn't even let their mother Xu Ning come over to hold them.

Xu Ning led the two female elders to the backyard to talk, while the front yard was left for the elders to drink, guess numbers, and talk about the land.

"The pavilion built by Chao'er is nice. It can blow in the cool breeze in summer, and the curtain can block the wind in winter."

Aunt Ma came to see Xu Ning and Xiao Fubao every now and then, but this was the first time she came back to the pavilion in the backyard.

Xu Ning smiled and said: "Dad said before that my husband wasted money on repairing this useless thing. In the end, the first thing he did when he got home was

I come here to sit and rest. After I have a rest, I like to play here with Fu Bao in my arms. This pavilion is what my father uses the most. "

Aunt Ma laughed unceremoniously.

Mrs. Chen glanced at Madam Ma and bumped the little Fubao in her arms. Seeing that the little guy started to yawn again, she reluctantly handed it back to Xu Ning: "Mother Ning, the little Fubao is probably sleepy again."

Xu Ning was not used to feeding little Fubao in front of others, so she carried her daughter back to the house.

Aunt Ma poked Chen's arm and asked her in a low voice: "Tell me, what are your plans for this house after Ning Niang and the others move out?"

"It's probably going to be demolished and rebuilt." Mrs. Chen didn't give Madam Ma any chance to daydream. She pointed at the pavilion and said, "I asked Chao'er when he was building the pavilion. Chao'er said this is his father Xu's house. It was the first house he built with his own skills, and it was also the place where he and Xu Ning had their biological daughter, so he would definitely keep it."

Aunt Ma's inner fantasies were shattered. She gave birth to several sons and the family branched out.

Together, she and her husband were not as capable as Butcher Xu. She thought Huo Yunchao and his family would move away, so she shamelessly made a request to Butcher Xu and sold the house to her at a price.

It's impossible to think about it. Huo Yunchao is the Marquis of Pingle who holds power and wealth. He comes and goes by horse-drawn carriages and has servants at home. Things are different now. How could he value the little money she gave him?

As far as Mrs. Chen was concerned, she had no intention of getting involved in Aunt Ma's family affairs, but she was Huo Yunchao's stepmother after all, so she had to remind her of her stepson.

Early the next morning, Mrs. Chen came over with a bamboo basket and said to Huo Yunchao, who was about to go out, "Chao'er, I made this millet porridge specially for Ning Niang."

Huo Yun

Chao was happier when he received this gift for Xu Ning than when he received it himself. He couldn't help but grinned and said, "The millet porridge cooked by stepmother is delicious. Ning Niang told me about it before. Thank you, stepmother."

Mrs. Chen asked, "Ning Niang and Fu Bao are having a relationship?"

Huo Yunchao noticed that Mrs. Chen's expression was different: "No, Fu Bao woke up from hunger an hour ago, and Ning Niang is still sleeping now. Stepmother, what's wrong?"

Mrs. Chen did not add any exaggeration. She repeated the exact words to Huo Yunchao, and only said: "Chao'er, you just have to know what's going on. There is no need to mention it to Ning Niang."

"Yeah, I know."

Huo Yunchao was not surprised at all. He had heard from Xu Ning before that Madam Ma's family was in a state of unrest over the separation of the family, and their resources were unevenly distributed. It was normal for them to turn their attention to the "big dog".

However, Huo Yunchao has never been a big dog with anger, stupidity and money.

Mrs. Chen settled her worries and mentioned the matter of buying cloth to Huo Yunchao: "Chao'er, don't buy cloth for me and your father next time. The cloth you bought before is enough for the two of us to wear for three to five years. I know you are filial. , I have plenty of money, and I'm happy if you can take advantage of me. But I am your stepmother after all, and I can't always think about taking advantage of my children. Chao'er, you should think more about Xiao Fubao, and think more about Xiao Fubao's younger brothers and sisters. . One child doesn’t seem like much money to spend, but three or five? That will cost a lot of money.”

Chen finished speaking in one breath, carefully looked at Huo Yunchao's expression, and quickly patched up: "Chao'er, if you think what I said is wrong, you can pretend that I didn't say it."

Huo Yunchao shook his head and said: "I don't think so. Stepmother, you are right. I just don't understand. Stepmother, you are obviously so good to me.

Why was I so ignorant before? "

In good conscience, Mrs. Chen really has no ill intentions towards the original White Eyed Wolf, so she can support him in his education.

White Eyed Wolf's original body was not up to par. Huo Tianxiang and Mrs. Chen had provided him with education for more than ten years, but they could not gain any fame. He also had two biological sons who were growing up. Mr. Chen was unwilling to be mean to his own son and continued to support him. It is reasonable for a grown-up stepson to study.

Mrs. Chen was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "Chao'er, you were very close to me before you could remember, and you always called me mother. Later, when you grew up, you knew that I was your stepmother, so you slowly followed me. I won’t kiss you.”

When she first married Huo Tianxiang, she had a good relationship with her stepson. She regarded her stepson as her own son and tried her best to give him everything he wanted.

The fact that the original person was able to study for so many years was actually the result of Chen's tacit approval.

If Chen insists on not allowing Huo Yunchao to study, Huo Tianxiang's attitude will be affected by her attitude no matter how strong he is.

The original person was forced to marry into the Xu family, which is one of the strong evidences.

Huo Yunchao suddenly felt enlightened: "That's it."

It seems that someone deliberately instilled this idea of ​​​​the original body, and his intentions are to be punished.

Mrs. Chen stepped on her feet and patted the dust off Huo Yunchao's shoulders, and said with a smile: "Chao'er, go ahead and get busy."

Huo Yunchao said goodbye and left. He was going to inspect the sweet potato fields, and then he was going to discuss with the master how to sign the specific documents.

It is true that he is Pinglehou now, but he still needs the endorsement of the court. If any unexpected events happen, the court can handle them justly, and he can save a lot of trouble.

Huo Yunchao blatantly transferred the conflict to the government. Master knew this very well. What was really going to happen?

Love, he needs to work hard to solve it.

The master chuckled twice: "Yun Chao, you brat is really good at pushing the blame and being lazy!"

Huo Yunchao took the opportunity to suggest: "Master, my brother-in-law is very good at handling these things, why don't you take him in?"

The master narrowed his eyes and asked him: "Yun Chao, didn't you say before that you wanted your brother-in-law to help you? Why did you change your mind?"
