The return of the son-in-law

"What's going on?" Guo Xiantong suppressed his anger, looked at Jia Huan who was kneeling in front of him, and asked, regardless of the voices of "Madam" from the servants next to him, "What do you mean by saving An'er last night, An'er?" Didn't you fall into the water early this morning?"

Jia Huan said "fortunately" several times in his heart, fortunately Huo Yu expected that Guo Xiantong didn't know the truth.

"Master, the second young master suddenly appeared in the young master's yard last night, and for some reason, he fell into the pond. Fortunately, young master Huo Yu discovered it early and jumped into the water to rescue the second young master. Actually, yesterday We have already invited a doctor tonight, and the doctor said that the two young masters are fine, and even prescribed a prescription. Today, Master Huo Yu was already fine, but suddenly the big housekeeper said that Master Huo Yu should leave immediately, without any sympathy .Master Huo Yu knew, maybe he was out of breath, and suddenly collapsed."

"Master, don't listen to his nonsense!" Liu Pianpian saw that she couldn't pretend to be dizzy, and her husband didn't look at her at all. He didn't care about being sad, so he quickly opened his eyes and argued, "There are too many doubts in this statement, what? Falling into the water in the middle of the night, what to leave immediately, this is clearly sophistry! This slave and outsider are lying to deceive the master!"

Guo Xiantong only felt a dull pain in his temple, and said: "What are you still doing in a daze, help your wife up quickly!" Then, he looked at Jia Huan again, "Is what you said true?"

Jia Huan nodded and said, "I dare not lie to the master, let alone lie to frame the wife and the second young master. Really, there is really no other way, the younger one came to the master. Master Huo Yu, he is unconscious now , the young master is not here, and everyone in the courtyard is in a hurry. Master, for the sake of master Huo Yu saving the second young master, please agree with the master, and ask the doctor to come back and show Master Huo Yu. Even if you really want to let Huo Yu Young Master Yu is leaving, you can't let him go like this? If word gets out, you and the young master's reputation will be ruined!"

Liu Pianpian sat aside, looking at Jia Huan with her eyes, wishing she could pounce on Jia Huan and tear Jia Huan's mouth.

She panicked.

Originally, he thought that if Guo Zhanan was not here, none of his servants would dare to jump out and challenge him. How could he not take advantage of this opportunity to take advantage of Guo Zhanan's prestige?Drive out the righteous brother he brought here, so that he can know who is really in charge of the Guo family!

In fact, it was her bad luck. If it wasn't Huo Yu who came, maybe Jia Huan and the others wouldn't dare to stand out; or Huo Yu was not so smart, and he saw something suspicious at a glance. Dejected and tired, the bedding was swept out.

Liu Pianpian's plan didn't include the current incident at all. She didn't know how to speak, so she could only look at Guo Xiantong pitifully: "Master, this Huo Yu's origin is unknown, I'm afraid he is not an ordinary person. Look, An'er fell into the water today, and now he is going into the water." People dare to challenge you, master! Obviously the master said that he wanted to ask Huo Yu to leave, so it’s fine if he doesn’t help persuade that kid, and now he’s standing up for him. This, this Huo Yu might have been transformed by a vixen!”

Seeing Liu Pianpian splashing dirty water on Huo Yu, and confusing Guo Xiantong's vision by the way, Jia Huan closed his eyes, and said three times, "Master, when did the second young master fall into the water? We all know. If Madam doesn’t believe the people in our yard, then please ask the concierge from last night to find out! If you still think that the concierge was bought by us, then you can ask the doctor from the hospital to come and ask.”

"Master!" Liu Pianpian knew that if the concierge and doctor were called, her lie would be completely exposed!

She trembled half-truthfully, and said, "Master, if you really invite the concierge and the doctor over, no matter what the result is, how will you let me gain a foothold in the Guo Mansion? The wife in charge was forced by a servant to prove her innocence." , if this matter gets out, I will be ashamed to live any longer! For the sake of the Liu family and An'er's generation, there are still a few girls who have not left the court, please have mercy on me!"

Guo Xiantong looked at the haggard Liu Pianpian, and thought of the Liu family, the concubine Liu who was favored again in the palace, and the fourth prince Li Shaojin who had been trained in the household department again, and finally compromised.

"Let this doctor show it to Huo Yu. Jia Huan, go and find a house. When Huo Yu wakes up, let him move there."

Jia Huan's heart felt cold, knowing that Guo Xiantong was moved by Liu Pianpian's persuasion, and she didn't intend to investigate further.

However, Huo Yu can't just leave like this!

Jia Huan gritted his teeth, and said: "Master, this house will not be found in a short while. Besides, Master Huo Yu is the young master's brother-in-law, so he can't just find a place to house Young Master Huo Yu. Otherwise, wait for the young master to return. Already, please ask the young master for instructions. If it is possible, how about sending young master Huo Yu to the young master's village to recuperate?"

If Guo Zhan'an came back, then Liu Pianpian's calculations would be all in vain!

She scolded angrily: "Why are you so unruly! The master has already spoken, so there is no place for you to speak! Hurry up and find a place to send him out. If you can't find a house, send him to the inn first! In short, you can't let him stay anymore." Come down, it will be bad if you bump into An'er again!"

Jia Huan compared the words of Guo Xiantong and Liu Pianpian, and found something wrong - Guo Xiantong said to find a house to send Huo Yu to recuperate, while Liu Pianpian said to send Huo Yu to an inn first.When the chief executive came to see him before, he also said that he was sending Huo Yu to live in an inn for a while.So, what the chief executive said, did Guo Xiantong mean it, or Liu Pianpian mean it?

Although Guo Xiantong didn't like Huo Yu, he wanted face after all. He might not be able to justify his face when a guest who was originally staying at his house suddenly went to stay at the inn.

"Forget it, send it to your young master's village, and find some people to take good care of it. After the Chinese New Year, when your young master returns to Xuzhou, take him back along the way."

Jia Huan knew that he couldn't persuade Guo Xiantong, so he had to take a step back: "Thank you, master, thank you, madam, I will take the doctor to show Master Huo Yu first. As for which village to send, when the master returns, I ask the master to decide."

Guo Xiantong hummed and agreed.Liu Pianpian on the side tightly clutched the handkerchief, planning how to drive Huo Yu out before Guo Zhan'an came back.

Maybe at first she just wanted to anger Guo Zhan'an and embarrass him, but she didn't expect it to develop into this appearance.Now she is riding a tiger, and can only go one way to die.

Huo Yu was naturally fine, but since he entered the water last night, the dampness and cold in his body hadn't been completely removed, so he looked more like a patient than Guo Feng'an.

The doctor prescribed the prescriptions for health as usual, and left with the medicine box, leaving Jia Huan to discuss the next plan with Huo Yu, who was beside him, with a worried look on his face.

Huo Yu was quite open-minded: "Anyway, I told you to wait for my brother to come back, so I continued to pretend to be dizzy. No matter how powerful Mrs. Guo is, she wouldn't be able to drive me out while I was unconscious."

Jia Huan sighed, and said: "Now I'm embarrassing her in front of my wife, and I'm afraid she will come up with some tricks before the young master comes back."

Jia Huan actually worried too much. Although Liu Pianpian wanted to drive Huo Yu away, firstly, she hadn't figured out a way yet, and secondly, Guo Xiantong was still there. If she made any small moves now, she would just tell Guo Xiantong clearly. Did she cause everything?

In the panic of Liu Pianpian, Guo Zhanan hurried back to the house, and first went back to the courtyard to meet Huo Yu.

Early this morning, he received a report from someone from Guo's mansion. He heard that Huo Yu went into the water to save people at night. Now Liu Pianpian actually said that Huo Yu had bumped into Guo Feng'an and wanted to drive Huo Yu out. He immediately led Huo Yu out of the stable. He picked up a fast horse and drove back without stopping.

He didn't heave a sigh of relief until he saw that Huo Yu was lying on the bed, but his expression was normal.

He took off the brocade robe outside and threw it aside casually. Jia Huan took it and put it on the shelf to hang up.Afterwards, Jia Huan turned around and stood guard outside the screen.

"How is it? Where does it hurt? Let me see." Guo Zhanan sat on the side of the bed, hugged Huo Yu into his arms, and looked at Huo Yu nervously.

"Don't worry, brother, I've already taken the medicine," Huo Yu patted Guo Zhan'an's arm, and said, "I didn't soak in the water for a long time yesterday, and Fuquan and the others hired a doctor for me. Now it's just to delay time, deliberately pretending to be unconscious Master Guo and Mrs. Guo's."

"It's winter, what are you trying to do, you have to go down to save people." Guo Zhan'an frowned, "My second brother is really promising, he came into my yard in the middle of the night, didn't do anything, and fell into the pond. "

Speaking of Guo Feng'an, Huo Yu let out a chuckle: "Brother, if you hadn't told me, I would never have believed that he was your younger brother. Did you know that he told Fuquan yesterday that he sneaked into the yard in the middle of the night, For that bite of potato and bolou dish."

"He doesn't have a plan." Guo Zhan'an said, pinching Huo Yu's arm, and the latter let out a muffled groan.

Regardless of Huo Yu's stop, Guo Zhan'an quickly pulled up Huo Yu's sleeves, only to see that there were three or four small bruises on Huo Yu's fair skin, and his face turned black immediately: "What's going on?"

Huo Yu had no choice but to reply hesitantly: "That's right, when saving people yesterday, the second young master of the Guo family was probably too scared, so he dragged me desperately. Sigh, brother, you should know that I have been a good swimmer and fish catcher since I was a child." , How could the pond in this yard be hard for me. If it wasn't for the second young master who wouldn't let me go, and the whole body sank again, I could have rescued him earlier. "

Huo Yu said it easily, but Guo Zhanan's complexion became darker and darker with every word he said: "You rest, I'll go and see the 'condition' of my second brother."

Huo Yu and Guo Zhan'an have been together day and night for two years, so they naturally know the meaning of Guo Zhan'an's words.He didn't dare to provoke Guo Zhan'an at this time, he could only watch Guo Zhan'an leave with Jia Huan and others, and he simply got into bed to catch up on sleep.

"You came just in time, your foster brother, let's send him to your Zhuangzi to recuperate tomorrow morning." In the study, Guo Xiantong saw Guo Zhanan coming, so he put down his pen and told Guo Zhanan his decision.

"Father, I don't know when Huo Yu needs to go to Zhuangzi to recuperate." Guo Zhan'an naturally refused to agree, "He was caught in the cold to save his second brother. Now that the damp and cold are entering his body, he needs someone to take care of him most." Time. Zhuangzi is too remote, I went there yesterday and felt that it was much colder than the capital city, and there are few people in Zhuangzi, where can Huo Yu be taken care of when he goes there?"

Guo Xiantong said in displeasure: "We can't let him continue to live in Guo's mansion, he offended us."

"Why did you talk about the collision?" Guo Zhanan sneered, "I don't know, Huo Yu and the second brother are of the same generation, and he is older than the second brother. How could he have collided with the second brother?"

Guo Xiantong was speechless for a moment, he had looked down on Huo Yu before, and Liu Pianpian was his wife who had slept with him for many years, so he naturally favored Liu Pianpian.Liu Pianpian said that Huo Yu had offended Guo Feng'an, he didn't bother to think about it, and he felt awkward because Huo Yu was carrying filial piety, so he took advantage of the situation and wanted to send Huo Yu away.

But as Guo Zhanan said, where does the same generation collide with this theory?

Guo Zhanan said again: "The second brother fell into the pond in my yard last night. I'm curious, what did he do in my yard in the middle of the night. Father, do you know?"

Guo Xiantong naturally didn't know, but Guo Feng'an was his beloved son, and Guo Zhan'an had been separated from him for a long time. It was impossible for him to let Guo Zhan'an accuse Guo Feng'an of any crimes, so he said: "What last night? Your second brother is today You fell into the water in the morning, don't make a mistake."

"Oh? How did I hear that it was last night, and it was still in my yard. How about it? Fuquan said that he sent someone to invite the doctor last night, the porter and the doctor. We will know as soon as we ask." Guo Zhan'an said this , his tone became tougher, "Father, it is rumored in the house that I brought Huo Yu back on purpose, because Huo Yu was wearing filial piety, and would run into my second brother, and then I would be able to reap the benefits! If it weren't for the second brother The servant next to my brother is loyal and saves the Lord in time, I am afraid there will be only one young master left in the Guo Mansion!"

Guo Xiantong said with embarrassment, "What are you talking about? Huo Yu and An'er are said to be of the same generation, so why are you talking about it? Who are the talkers? They were given dumb drugs and sold!"

"Is father trying to force me to death?" Guo Zhanan asked, "Gossip is enough to kill people! Today it is said that I deliberately brought Huo Yu back to kill my second brother and monopolize the Guo family; tomorrow I may say that I killed my father and brother! Father, do you insist on letting me slam my head against the stone lion at the door?"

"You child, what are you talking about? How could I think so?" Guo Xiantong panicked, and quickly comforted him, "Don't worry, I know that there is something wrong with my wife. How about this, Huo Yu doesn't have to leave, Just keep living in your yard. Just one thing, don't let him out."

Guo Xiantong thought he had given Huo Yu a big face, but Guo Zhan'an didn't appreciate it at all—Huo Yu didn't do anything wrong at all, he deserved it, why did it become a charity from others?

"Father, don't talk about anything else, I just want to know why my second brother came into my yard in the middle of the night. If I don't explain this clearly, I can't sleep well all day long."

"What do you mean, that An'er has other plans for entering your yard?"

Guo Zhan'an also does not deny: "My son suffered a lot when he was young. As the saying goes, he was bitten by a snake once and afraid of well ropes for ten years. It is inevitable that he should think more about himself. What's more, the second brother is so young, why would he think of sneaking into the well in the middle of the night? What about my yard?"

The implication is that he suspects that someone is abetting Guo Feng'an.

Guo Xian turned pale with a well-maintained face.

Now my son has put the whole family under suspicion, and even he can't escape.In the past, at most he would just reprimand Guo Zhan'an, but now that Guo Zhan'an is a judge, he is quite popular with the emperor, and he has a lot of friendship with Li Shaojun, the king of Qin.

Therefore, Guo Xiantong didn't care about saving some face for Liu Pianpian, and said, "Okay, I'll take you there, and you ask your second brother, when and where did he fall into the water!"
