Although Uncle Yuan didn't know why Mr. Li and the others were demoted, he had a sharp eye and knew whether he should make friends with this person.

but……

Yi'an girl! You came here too openly!

There is another one behind him, he is really a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger.

Lin Yian noticed the look in Uncle Yuan's eyes and immediately understood what he meant. He took out two White Rabbit candies and placed them on the windowsill, then...

“Bang!”

Uncle Yuan watched Lin Yian close his window while his son's eyes were glued to the candy.

"Hey, eat, eat, and then go brush your teeth."

This isn't the first time he's pretending to be blind, so it doesn't matter this time.

Boom boom boom.

"Master, I'm here."

"Just come in."

Lin Yian exchanged a look with his second mother behind him, and Huo Fang stayed outside the door to start planning her words.

But less than two minutes later, the door that had just been closed opened again. Huo Fang looked up and saw an elderly man who was in very good spirits.

"Come in, your Aunt Xiao wants to talk to you."

Although the cowshed is small, it can still provide private space if carefully planned.

While Lin Yian was worried about Huo Fang's situation, he recited the contents of the booklet to Mr. Li.

Although he hadn't recited a single word wrong, Mr. Li still rolled up the book in his hand and tapped Lin Yi'an on the head in an unpleasant tone: "I think you still don't have enough homework."

The radar in Lin Yi'an's mind sounded a warning: "It's a lot! Master, in addition to memorizing the lessons, I also have to give my brother questions, and I have to train and work in the fields. If you add more homework, your disciple will collapse!"

Even the little girl's cleverness and wit could not dissuade the master, who was striving for perfection, from giving her more lessons.

Lin Yian successfully took over the homework booklet that was originally for next month.

Woo woo woo

Next time, bring less paper and pen for the master. This is not a blank piece of paper, it is clearly a pile of homework that is weighing on her head!

But the scene on the other side of the curtain was not quite what Lin Yian had imagined.

When Grandma Xia heard the news that her friend had passed away, it was like the last boot dropped in her heart. In the end, no miracle happened.

"I... had thought of it a long time ago. Given Si Yuning's unyielding character, if she had survived, we would have met a long time ago. Well, except for your mother, the rest of the Huo family is just a bunch of rotten fish and stinky shrimp. Now that you are still alive and well, she can rest in peace in her grave."

Huo Fang subconsciously clenched her hands on her knees: "You don't seem to care about the Huo family's inheritance?"

The Huo family is a wine-making family.

The history of this family's rise to wealth can be traced back to the Song Dynasty. A long time ago, the Huo family began to supply wine to the powerful and wealthy relatives. The family's several wine recipes have been passed down for hundreds of years and have been improved many times by the talented people in the family. They have long been priceless treasures.

The reason why Huo Fang was abandoned by the Huo family was because those people thought they had found the real secret recipe of the Huo family. Therefore, the last direct descendant of the Huo family was no longer important.

"Inheritance? Haha."

When Grandma Xia wakes up in the middle of the night, she can still clearly remember the moment when she tasted the homemade wine made by her friend when she was a teenager, the joy she felt after drinking with her friend under the moonlight, and the secret of the Huo family that she would take to the grave...

"Clinging to those prescriptions is nothing but sticking to the old ways. As long as you are here, the Huo family will always have the possibility of returning to its glory days. I think your mother means the same thing, right, Fang girl?"

Huo Fang didn't expect that her mother would tell Aunt Xiao even this. Indeed, the most important thing for the Huo family was never the recipes, but the perfect sense of taste and smell that almost all direct descendants of the Huo family possessed.

This is the fundamental reason why the Huo family has been able to survive to this day, otherwise those recipes would have been eliminated long ago.

Huo Fang raised her head and looked into those eyes that were still calm despite the vicissitudes of life: "Your guess is indeed correct. But I really don't know if the time my mother is looking forward to will come, and I..."

"But your mother's most fundamental wish is that you live happily. Are you happy now?"

"happy."

She is now well fed and warmly clothed, and has a husband who treats her as always, a filial and intelligent son, sisters-in-law who are as close as sisters, and kind and amiable elders. She is indeed living a good life.

Grandma Xia patted Huo Fang's hand and said, "That's enough. As for the rise and fall of a family, it depends on luck first and human effort second. However, if I hadn't seen Ah Ci first, and looked at her temperament and the jade button, I would have really thought she was Siyu's granddaughter."

The topic suddenly changed, and Huo Fang also laughed. Through the curtain beside her, she seemed to be able to see the scene of Lin Yian and Mr. Li fighting wits and courage.

"Ah Ci's personality is really like my mother's, but Ah Ci is more flexible and adaptable."

This was also part of the reason why she willingly gave the jade button to Aci at that time.

Grandma Xia gave a somewhat mysterious smile. Yes, she thought that Aci's stubbornness was ingrained in her bones.

"Let's go out and take a look. The jade buttons are originally a pair. Let Ah Ci take both. Just treat it as a gift from me as her elder."

This prevents some old man from secretly wanting to do something to the jade button.

Everyone said that the handsome man with a jade face was actually Siyu in disguise, but he just stiffened his neck and refused to believe it.

Really...Alas,

Grandma Xia sat up from her chair, and Huo Fang quickly supported her, and the two of them walked out together.

"I see you can be patient now. Next time, bring something with you and tell me why you think it's old. If you can't bring it, don't come!"
