Reborn in another world, the boss loves me to the core

Chapter 337 Banquet of the Head of the Huo Family

The old lady prepared a tweed plaid suit for Su Xian. It was light in color, dignified and elegant, without any brand logo.

In addition to this outfit, there is also a set of Dadong pearl jewelry, including two necklaces, two pairs of earrings, bracelets, rings, a hat with a pearl shawl trim, and a handbag.

Dongzhu has long been extinct, and the remaining ones have been collected. There are very few of them left in the world, and even if they do exist, their quality is average.

Aunt Rou carefully traced her eyebrows and said, "Miss, this set of pearl jewelry was worn by the old lady when she was young. The old lady specially asked me to bring it to you."

Su Xian looked at the pearl jewelry on the dressing table. They were of different colors, round and full, and each one had a white and transparent luster.

"Aunt Rou, is today's dinner important?"

"It's just a home-cooked meal. Most of the people here are relatives, so you don't have to worry." Aunt Rou said with a smile.

The old lady once lamented to her in private, "I originally wanted to marry my girl in, but it was because of my feelings. If I had known better, I wouldn't have let Lu Ming take her away."

"As my grandson grows older, his ideas will grow bigger. When he was a child, the deer's roar was so rare."

"Old madam, the young master has no big ideas and will be eaten alive."

"That's true. The Huo family is now well-off. It would be too much for Lu Ming to marry a noble lady. The kitten was raised in our own family, so we know his background and he likes it, so let him be."

"My young master would be very happy if he knew your kindness."

The old lady thought clearly, and the little knot in her heart was completely dissipated when Master Ba came back with his two grandsons some time ago. She only felt that her life was complete, and she never mentioned the idea of ​​marrying a girl from the Huang family again.

Early in the morning, he told her: "Ah Rou, find out my set of pearl jewelry and send it over with this new set of clothes. You follow her during the main banquet. The kitten has been raised by him to be inexperienced in the world. I'm afraid I don’t know who the Huo family is, so don’t be bullied.”

After all, the old lady still felt sorry for the young master whose parents died young.

In addition, Su Xian was well-behaved and well-behaved, making the old lady happy every time he came. He was also uniquely smart and could remember anything after being taught it once. In the end, he felt sorry for the little girl's difficulty and put her in trouble. All the treasures at the bottom of the box were uncovered.

"The makeup is done, miss, go and change your clothes and take a look." Aunt Rou put down the eyebrow pencil in her hand.

Su Xian looked in the mirror. His originally thin chin now looked much rounder, and his thin eyebrows made his face look like a silver plate. It lacked the childishness and had a classical and graceful beauty.

Paired with this set of light-colored clothes, it is completely different from her usual external image. She looks dignified and elegant in every gesture.

This jewel-filled style really suits her, like a rich flower blooming in the world.

"Miss, you have a good foundation. No matter how you dress, you will look beautiful."

Aunt Rou put pearl earrings and a hat on her.

Su Xian smiled and said, "Aunt Rou, if you praise me again, my tail will be lifted up to the sky."

Aunt Rou sighed in her heart, after all, she was raised as a proper lady in the Huo family, and she had the sense of superiority and alienation of an ancient family in her bones.

The Huo family's ancestral home is located in the Gendong area of ​​the imperial city. This ancestral home has been occupied since the Huo family moved to Kyoto Prefecture. It has gone through three dynasties and undergone many expansions. It originally had an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters and more than 30 large and small courtyards.

Later, the Huo family donated most of their ancestral home, including a large garden, to establish a university, which is now the main campus of Kyoto University, with the garden in the middle.

The ancestral home has five courtyards. Except for the first one, each courtyard has several small courtyards. The first one is the largest and most open. It is usually used for meeting guests, holding banquets and guest courtyards.

Several uncles lived in the second and third courtyards. In addition to Madam Huo's Chaohui Hall, the fourth courtyard only had Huo Li's Qizitang. After his parents passed away, Huo Li moved from the second courtyard to the fourth courtyard. The fifth courtyard The eldest aunt, Huo Yuan, Huo Min and others lived here.

This area is mostly composed of courtyard-style buildings, and the roads are not wide, so most of the younger Huo family members actually live outside.

The car was parked in the parking lot outside the ancestral home.

The sky was dark, the moon was bright, the stars were sparse, and it was rare that there was no snow.

Su Xian felt a little nervous for some reason. He felt as if he was going to the Hongmen Banquet. It was probably the first time he had entered this old house since his rebirth.

Feeling her uneasiness, Huo Li slightly increased the strength on his hand.

The century-old building is mainly made of wooden structure, with carved beams and colorful paintings. It is very well maintained. It has experienced the heaviness and vicissitudes of several generations and has been renovated in a modern way. It has regained a different vitality.

The courtyard is lush with vegetation, with century-old trees everywhere, decorated with lights and bustling with people.

When they saw Huo Li bringing people in, they all stopped to talk.

"Homeowner"

Huo Li nodded slightly, with no emotion on his face. For a while, the courtyard was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Huo's branch hated and feared him, and his mood was extremely complicated.

If it weren't for the incident a few years ago, this yard would not be able to accommodate all five generations of the Huo family.

The old man's father had three brothers. The old man's generation including his uncles had more than twenty people. When it came to Huo Li's generation, although there were not many direct descendants, there were a large number of collateral descendants.

Compared with the flourishing collateral branches, the direct lineage is pitifully small.

This also fueled the ambitions of the side branches, causing them to unite and try to replace the boss. However, they did not know that this was indeed a vicious move. Except for those who did not participate, only two or three members of the Huo family who were able to attend today were left.

Huo Li didn't care what those people were thinking, but Su Xian felt that he had instantly become the center of attention.

Most of those looks were scrutinizing, contemptuous and disdainful. There were not many friendly ones, and they were all familiar to her.

Su Xian turned a blind eye to these glances, with a slight smile on his face.

"Sister Xian'er, I haven't seen you for a long time." Huo Ling'er broke the silence in the courtyard, stepped forward to hold Su Xian's arm, and winked at Huo Li: "Brother, can I borrow Sister Su Xian for a while? My eldest sister Sister He Xiuxiu hasn’t met Sister Xian’er yet.”

"Just a moment."

Huo Ling'er looked surprised, but quickly recovered.

A little girl dressed in rich and auspicious clothes stumbled out next to her. She opened her arms and said in a sweet voice, "Uncle, give me a hug."

Holly's lips curved up into a smile, he squatted down and picked her up, "Where's your mother?"

"Mom was talking to aunt and uncle over there, and Xiaobao came over secretly."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a beautiful woman walking over in a hurry.

Su Xian thought for a moment and said, "Sister Ran."

Huo Ran smiled and said, "Well, let's talk later."

"Xiaobao, give me here, you go in, we are all waiting."

There were two large round tables in the main hall that could accommodate more than twenty people. At the head of the main table sat a man who looked to be in his thirties. He had long black hair tied up with a golden crown, looking aloof from the world.

The main seat and the seats next to it are still empty.

Most of the people sitting here are elders of the Huo family, and their combined age is several thousand years old.

Then came the uncles and aunts. Mr. Huo was the youngest and seemed a little out of place sitting among the antiques.

He playfully watched these people's expressions when they saw Huo Li and the girl beside him come in.

Tsk tsk, it’s as if my own son was seduced away by a woman of unknown origin.

Everyone treated Huo Li as their own property and wanted to control him in the palm of their hands!

Don’t even look at whether you are worthy or not!
