After taking a bath and changing his clothes, Huo Mingzhu went to rest. Under Lin Ruyi's and his company, they headed towards the Pingyang Mansion, which was not far away from them.

Lin Ruyi was not used to sitting in the carriage, so he sat on the palanquin instead. Inside the carriage, Huo Huaiyu insisted on sitting next to Huo Mingzhu.

Once again, Baili Zonglv's personality was completely different. The foolish crown prince also seemed to be different from his previous life, Huo Mingzhu was not sure if Huo Huaiyu had also changed. The little tricks she had played in front of her grandmother were, after all, little tricks, and she could not yet convict herself of them.

"Sister, when you were in Fringe City, aside from those little gadgets, did you bring anything else for me? What was kunlun? Their masks are strange. " Huo Huaiyu could not stay idle, constantly provoking Huo Mingzhu to ask questions.

"Elder sister, when will Yun Shan Cousin return? I haven't seen him in years! I'm so envious of my sister for growing up with Cousin since young. He's a valiant general now! "I don't know how many girls from Shang Jing want to marry Cousin as their wives, but I don't know whether or not the threshold of Uncle's family has been broken by the matchmaker ?" When Huo Huaiyu talked about Lin Yunchu, he genuinely envied him.

Huo Mingzhu smirked and replied: "Huai Yu also wants to marry Cousin?"

"Aiya, sister!" Huo Huaiyu's face flushed red, his head crawling into Huo Mingzhu's embrace. Huo Mingzhu naturally caught her hand, but he was still unable to smile as before. The little sister in her arms, whom she had doted on for many years, sheltered her from the elements, stood up for her in everything, and stole away her love, and even plotted to ruin her life for a long time.

Her smile was light and distant. "Huai Yu, don't be shy, you are already thirteen years old, in two more years you will have profound strength, and at that time, there will definitely be people who will step foot the threshold of the general's manor. Huai Yu, do you want to marry a hero?"

She didn't know if Huo Huaiyu was truly ignorant or if he was just pretending to be silly. She obediently leaned her head on Huo Mingzhu's shoulder, her large eyes blinking. Of course I want to marry a hero! It's not like the Yun Shan Cousin, who is the Battle God King, I like the heroes in big shows. Other than them, no one else is willing to marry! "

Hearing that, Huo Mingzhu's heart sank. Before he could say anything, Huo Huaiyu had risen up from her embrace again, and looked at Huo Mingzhu enviously, "Elder sister, I heard that when you met an assassin on your way back, Ninth Prince saved you, right? Originally, when Big Sister came back today, I wanted to pick you up and take a look at Ninth Prince, but Mother didn't allow me to! This is so annoying! "

As she spoke, she started to complain about her mother, but the look in her eyes was real.

Huo Mingzhu laughed coldly from the bottom of his heart. Baili Zonglv really did use some tricks, he had saved her from over ten miles away, but the news had actually spread to Shang Jing with such agility that even the girls in the pavilion had to fall in love with him, even risking losing their ladylike names to go and see him.

He only wanted to be his hero, and let her become his constant companion. To save her, he benefited, gave her. He benefited, even if he had to whisper in her ear, it would make her the target of public criticism.

Huo Mingzhu looked at Huo Huaiyu with anticipation and laughed: "Huai Yu, no rush, Ninth Prince will not go out of the city this time. Since Father is on good terms with the Ninth Prince, you still have many opportunities to meet him."

"Really!" Huo Huaiyu shouted excitedly. Sensing that her voice was too loud, she immediately covered her mouth, smiling at Huo Mingzhu with her big eyes.

Huo Mingzhu often thought that during the times when she and Baili Zonglv had a relationship, they would tell each other that Feiqing would not marry Feijun. Could it be that everything of that time was a disguise? Or perhaps in the three years she had been with Baili Zonglv, she had gradually lost all of her mischievous nature, and could even look smart while winking and sticking out her tongue. As a result, Baili Zonglv fell in love with her sister ?

"First Miss, Second Miss, we're here."

Su Lv lifted the curtain from the outside.

Huo Mingzhu got off the carriage first, and extended his hand out to her: "Elder sister, help me get off the carriage!"

When Huo Mingzhu held her hand, Huo Huaiyu jumped down and held her arm while laughing: "Elder sister, I knew that your martial arts were the best. Uncle and grandmother are always praising you, but I can't learn anything at all. Hehe, in any case, before I marry my hero, I'll have to rely on elder sister to protect me. "

Lin Ruyi got off the palanquin. Seeing the deep affection between the sisters, he was very satisfied, and said to the butler Lin Zhong, who was welcoming them at the entrance of Pingyang Mansion: "Old Ancestor has been nagging everyday, look, didn't Ming Zhu come back already? Butler Lin, is the Old Ancestor awake? "

This Lin Zhong was a distant branch of the Lin Family. His family's Pingyang Mansion, which came to seek refuge, was extremely smart and loyal. He took care of everything carefully and became the housekeeper in the house.

Hearing Lin Ruyi's question, Lin Zhong laughed: "Second Miss, you should know that the old lady is very old, so the young lady's heart is heavy. The young lady is far away in the Fringe City, how can she not talk about it? Ever since the marquis returned to his residence, he has been talking about ladies.

Lin Zhong was almost 50, and could be considered to have watched Lin Ruyi grow up. As a result, he could not change his name, and often called him "Second Miss".

"Ming Zhu, do you hear me? Your grandmother is going to miss you so let's go in quickly and not make the old man wait. " Lin Ruyi smiled gently. Huo Mingzhu had been observing her smile the entire time, he didn't know if she was annoyed by it or not, but no matter how he looked at it, Lin Ruyi's smile seemed more brilliant than when he was in the General's House. It was as if he was trying to show it to someone.

After entering the Lin Residence's old mistress' courtyard, the servants' voices were filled with joy. With smiles plastered all over their faces, they opened the curtains as they ran, "Old granny, Second Miss has brought the two ladies here!"

When Huo Mingzhu followed Lin Ruyi in, seeing that the grandmother, supported by the little girl, had come over, she could not care about her little daughter anymore, and only looked at Huo Mingzhu with a serious face and said angrily: "You unfilial granddaughter, make me wait! See if I, this old man, will hit you! "

As she said that, she raised the cane in her hand and swung it towards Huo Mingzhu's legs.

When he was framed by Baili Zonglv's tricks, Huo Mingzhu did not cry. When she was intimidated by her grandmother, Huo Mingzhu did not cry. However, Huo Mingzhu was moved by his grandmother's genuine rebuke and that pole that was neither light nor heavy. He uncontrollably walked forward and hugged his trembling grandmother, and that voice stuck in his throat: "Grandmother ?"

Her gentle smile could be a fatal trap, but this beating with a grudge was real love. Huo Mingzhu who crawled out from hell was unable to extricate himself from this love.

"Yo, you're crying? How old are you? " Old Lady Lin was also from a family of generals, although his body was not good, he still had a strong tone to his words. Although his mouth never showed mercy, the cane in his hand never swung down.
