Chapter 118

Luo Chaoyan was a little stunned. She didn't understand what was wrong with Huo Jin. Was he delivering the letters too frequently?

Seeing her dazed look, Mrs. Huo rolled her eyes at her and said, "Why are you standing there like an idiot? Why don't you read what the letter says?"

Luo Chaoyan came back to her senses, bowed to her, then took the letter and Fengli back to her room.

She opened the envelope and took out the letter.

Huo Jin wrote: Ah Yan, my father-in-law left a message. He misses you very much and hopes you will come back to see him. He cherishes the bamboo leaf handkerchief you embroidered. He told me many things you said to each other and looks forward to you embroidering more for him...

Seeing this, her heart skipped a beat for some reason. She felt as if his words always revolved around the embroidered handkerchief. Wait, how did he know that she embroidered a handkerchief for Daddy? Could it be that he saw his father carrying the handkerchief she embroidered? It seems very likely, so...so he is jealous?

When she saw his last words, "I hope my wife will come back," her face inexplicably felt hot.

Fengli looked at her expression and couldn't help laughing: "Madam, what did the young master say?"

Luo Chaoyan coughed lightly and said, "Nothing. He said that Daddy missed me and asked me to go back and see him when I'm free."

Fengli nodded and said, "Young Madam, do you want to reply?"

Luo Chaoyan thought about it and shook her head, saying: "We will go back tomorrow and will not reply to the letter." She also didn't know what to say. Tell him honestly that the handkerchief was embroidered for her father? That might make him even angrier. m.

After Huo Jin returned to the mansion after his shift, he asked Butler Huo, "Is there any letter from the young lady?"

Butler Huo was stunned and shook his head: "No!"

Huo Jin pursed his lips, and walked towards the inner courtyard without asking any more questions.

Butler Huo was a little confused. What happened to the young master? I feel like it doesn't look very good.

Huo Jin returned to the inner courtyard room and saw the book open on the desk, so he walked over. It turned out to be a travelogue written by him personally, with some of the places and features circled in red ink.

The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he seemed to be able to imagine his wife's longing expression.

Her father-in-law said that she was heartless, and it turned out to be true. With her intelligence, she would definitely be able to guess what he meant by those words!

…

Luo Mansion

Zhao was a little puzzled as she watched Yin and Madam Su walking towards the courtyard of the third room. When did this third brother's wife get close to Madam Su?

She said to her daughter, "Why did Madam Su come to our house for no reason?"

Luo Chaoning pursed his lips. What else could it be? Of course it was a marriage! Fortunately, she no longer has any illusions about Mr. Su.

Luo's three-room inner courtyard

Yin invited Madam Su to the hall, "Madam Su, please sit down!"

Mrs. Su smiled and nodded.

After the two of them exchanged pleasantries for a while, Madam Su spoke up and said, "Madam San, I won't beat around the bush with you. I came here today to talk to you about my Yi'er's marriage."

"I know that our Su family and your Yin family may not seem to be a good match in the eyes of outsiders, but I hope you don't mind. My Yi'er said that he only wants to marry Miss Yin and stay with her for the rest of his life. Nothing else matters."

Yin was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Mr. Su would dare to say such words to the elders of the Su family.

Madam Su also told Yin about her son's future assignment as an official and the fact that he would not take a concubine.

Yin was somewhat shocked. She could feel Mr. Su's sincerity. It was rare that he could do so much for Shan'er.

She looked at Madam Su and said, "Madam Su, you don't care either?" Don't the ladies of the noble families in Kyoto attach great importance to family background?

Madam Su shook her head and said, "As a mother, I just hope that their marriage can be happy." Her life was a marriage between families, and she had been unhappy for half of her life. She didn't want her children to bear this burden anymore.

Yin was somewhat moved. She had originally not agreed with the marriage, but now she was somewhat shaken. She could see that Madam Su was sincere, and with a mother-in-law like her, Shan'er's life would not be too difficult in the future.

"Madam Su, Shan'er is only my niece after all. Her marriage still needs to be approved by my brother."

Madam Su nodded and said, "Of course!"

…

Early the next morning, Luo Chaoyan and others left Lianzhuang after breakfast.

In the carriage, Huo An looked at Zhuangzi who was going further and further away with reluctance.

He looked at his great-grandmother and mother who were sitting on the side and said, "Great-grandmother, mother, can't you stay longer?"

Madam Huo rubbed his little head and said with a smile: "You have been out for a while, why haven't you gotten tired of playing yet?"

Huo An shook his head and said, "I won't get tired of it if my mother is still here!" After thinking for a moment, he added, "I won't get tired of it if my great-grandmother is still here!"

Mrs. Huo smiled and tapped his nose, saying, "Flatterer."

Luo Chaoyan leaned against the horse wall and felt a little drowsy. She didn't know what happened last night, but she unexpectedly embroidered a handkerchief for Huo Jin. She had been embroidering for half the night. She must be very sleepy.

After the carriage swayed for an hour, it finally arrived at the Huo Mansion.

Mrs. Huo and the others knew that they would return home today, so they were waiting there early.

Seeing Mrs. Huo get off the carriage, he hurried to meet her.

Mrs. Huo supported her and said with a smile, "Mother, you are finally back." She didn't know why, but the house felt a little dull since her daughter-in-law, grandson and mother were not at home.

Luo Chaoyan yawned and when she got out of the carriage, she saw Huo Jin coming towards her and extending his hand to her.

She blinked, not expecting him to be at home. She put her hand in his and was about to walk down the wooden steps from the carriage, but unexpectedly, Huo An also came out from inside. However, his little body did not stand firmly and he fell behind her. She was caught off guard and fell directly into Huo Jin's arms.

The servant standing nearby hurriedly helped Huo An up, and Huo Jin also carried Luo Chaoyan down.

Huo An seemed to be able to sense the cold light his father was giving him. Knowing that he had almost gotten into trouble, he quickly put on a flattering smile and said, "Father, An An misses you!"

Luo Chaoyan patted her chest and let out a breath. She almost thought she was going to make a fool of herself.

Huo An saw his father staring at his mother and said, "Father, mother misses you too!"

Cough cough!

Luo Chaoyan opened her mouth and said, "Just say what you want to say. Why bring her into this?" This...this is in public, so embarrassing!

She rolled her eyes at him deliberately, and said, "Don't worry, your father misses you too, and the old lady in the mansion misses you even more."

Huo An immediately showed a bitter face when he heard this, and he would have to start studying when he returned home.

"Mother, stay with me!"

Luo Chaoyan choked and said she didn't want it.

Huo Jin glanced at Huo An coldly and said, "You just study your books, why do you have so many requirements?"
