Huo Yunchao loved his fat girl so much that he kissed, hugged and lifted her up, making little Fu Bao giggle non-stop.

Xu Ning leaned on the door frame, looking at the quarreling father and daughter and smiling sweetly.

"Daddy."

Xiao Fubao noticed Xu Ning at the door and struggled to get down.

Huo Yunchao followed the fat girl's gaze and the moment he met Xu Ning's eyes, his eyes changed again and again, using his gaze to express his wild and passionate inner emotions.

Where has Xu Ning ever seen such superb flirting techniques? She soon couldn't bear the offensive eyes of the new humans whose souls came from the 21st century, and quickly looked away, deliberately avoiding looking at Huo Yunchao.

Huo Yunzhao looked at Xu Ning with good eyes, unabashedly admiring the two clouds of shame on her face. He calmed down after receiving the angry look from the beloved girl: "Fubao, daddy wants to wash up, you first talk to my mother-in-law. Play outside.”

When Xu Ning came over to hug Fu Bao, Huo Yunchao turned his head and kissed her on the lips firmly and accurately. Before he could let out a proud laugh, he was stunned when he met a pair of beautiful big eyes that were as pure as bright mirrors. , had an idea and kissed the little chubby girl on the cheek: "One kiss per person, isn't daddy the fairest?"

Poor little Fu Bao didn't even know about her father's charlatanism, so she was fooled so easily.

Xu Ning glared at Huo Yunchao as a warning, took the Fu Bao without saying a word, and when he was about to walk out of the room, his pretended annoyance turned into a bright smile.

She is not an ignorant and indifferent person.

Huo Yunchao dressed up and went out. He didn't see Xu Ning and her daughter playing in the yard. He didn't ask any more questions and went straight to the bathroom to wash up.

After washing, Huo Yunchao went straight to the kitchen. Before he entered the kitchen, he heard a secret guard say: "Thank you, madam, for the reward."

"What are you doing?"

Huo Yunchao crossed his arms on his chest and looked at Xu Ning who was personally packing the dark guard's luggage.

The secret guard Jia said with a happy face: "Speaking to the Marquis, Madam knows that I am going to the capital, so I will reward you with many good things."

Huo Yunchao didn't answer, but turned to look for someone, waving to Secret Guard B: "Did you come up with the idea? You've been staring at the fine wine and delicacies in my warehouse all day long!"

Secret Guard B just laughed: "Master Hou, your craftsmanship is so good!"

Huo Yunchao pointed to the warehouse and said, "Don't be stupid. Go to the warehouse and bring two jars of sweet potato wine over to His Majesty."

Secret Guard B was ordered to run to bring the wine.

Huo Yunchao said to the secret guard: "Noodles, meat sauce, dried sweet potatoes, sweet potato wine and other foods are not allowed on the table. You don't need to present them to His Majesty in a big way. When you arrive in the capital, they will be delivered to the Chen family. The old patriarch of the Chen family will help. Send it to the palace."

The secret guard didn't say anything, but in his heart he felt that Huo Yunchao was on the side of the Chen family. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed: the aristocratic family headed by the Chen family was destined to have a battle with the imperial power. If Pinglehou chose the aristocratic family, he would definitely be liquidated by Emperor Yong'an. .

Huo Yunchao didn't know what An Weijia had in mind. He just wanted to live a simple life and didn't want to take sides. If he had to choose, he chose to be a "royalist".

Huo Yunchao could not predict how the future would change. He always remembered that Mr. Chen was so kind to him, so he was still willing to stand with the Chen family as long as it did not violate his own principles.

Without Mr. Chen's recommendation and protection, his grave would be covered with grass as high as his height.

When the Dark Guard left, the bullock cart was full of things. They were not particularly valuable things, but every gift had extraordinary meaning.

Secret Guard B bid farewell to his eldest brother and returned to the Xu family to ride on Little Fubao's horse. Without the tight attention of the black-faced brother, he could finally let himself go and chase and play with Little Fubao, laughing and joking.

Huo Yunchao rubbed his temples, pointed at the secret guard B who was riding for Xiao Fubao, and said, "Ning Niang, has this guy been like this before?"

Xu Ning smiled and shook his head: "Jia Da is very strict with him and won't let him make such a fuss in front of others."

"Jia Da?"

Huo Yunchao reacted belatedly, "What's his name? Jia Er?"

"Master Hou, did you call me?"

Secret Guard B suddenly heard someone shouting and looked at Xu Ning subconsciously. After he reacted, he let Xiao Fubao sit on his shoulders and ran over.

The first thing Huo Yunchao saw was the fat girl whose eyes were lined with smiles. He noticed that she was sitting skillfully and steadily on her exclusive tall horse. There was no fear in her eyes. It was obviously not the first time she was playing like this with Jia Er.

"Jia Er, you and Xiao Fubao are having a good time."

Huo Yunchao looked Jia Er up and down as he spoke, and Jia Er's nerves felt something was wrong, "Master Hou, please forgive me..."

Huo Yunchao waved his hand and said: "I don't want to blame you, just play well with the eldest lady and don't let her fall down and get hurt. Go ahead."

Xu Ning took Huo Yunchao's calloused hand and gently stroked it: "Mr., your hands are getting thicker and thicker."

Huo Yunchao said seriously: "You have to have thick palms to have strength. In the past, when I was a weakling, I had to use both hands to hold you. Now I can hold you and Xiao Fu Bao with one hand. This is what I want." Become a real man.”

Xu Ning smiled, then changed the subject and said words that made Huo Yunchao stiff as iron: "Ms. sir, I heard about what happened in the refugee area."

Huo Yunchao deliberately avoided that matter, not wanting Xu Ning to worry about him: "Ning Niang, I, I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to worry."

"Ms. sir, I don't want to blame you. If it were me, I wouldn't tell you either."

Xu Ning successfully snatched away Huo Yunchao's carefully prepared lines. It was embarrassing to see his face changing and he couldn't hold back a sentence for a long time.

Huo Yunchao scratched his head and deliberately changed the topic and said, "Ning Niang, let's go to the river embankment together tomorrow? Father Xu works as a supervisor at the river embankment. Let's bring some food to Father Xu."

Xu Ning squeezed his palm and complained slightly: "Mr., you are always like this."

Huo Yunchao stopped talking about him and said honestly: "Ning Niang, I don't want to tell you those bad things."

Xu Ning pursed her lips and confessed frankly: "Mr. sir, I can probably guess why you didn't tell me those bad things. However, I don't want to know these things from other people's mouths, making it seem like others are more important than the person next to me. It’s a terrible feeling to know more about your every move.”

Huo Yunchao touched his nose and said, "Mother Ning, how about we go to the river embankment now?"

Xu Ning was so angry that her teeth itched, and she squeezed Huo Yunchao's ears harder: "Huo Yunchao, you won't even give me a guarantee!"

Huo Yunchao grinned in pain, but still did not let go: "Ning Niang, I don't want to lie to you, I really can't guarantee it."

Xu Ning was angry and thought about it on her own: "That's all, I won't force you to do anything you don't want to do. I'll go pack some food and bring it to dad."

The open space near the river embankment was bustling with activity, including men, women, and children.

Different from the labor conscripted by the imperial court in previous years, the old men who participated in the construction of river embankments this year could not only get wages but also take care of a meal.
