Chapter 183

After Huo Jin and the other returned to their yard, they washed up and lay down in bed together.

Luo Chaoyan was afraid of the cold, so she just treated him as a "hot water bottle".

Huo Jin hugged her and asked considerately, "It's cold? Do you want someone to add another charcoal stove?"

Luo Chaoyan shook her head and smiled: "With you here, it's okay even without a charcoal stove."

Huo Jin looked at her deeply, then lowered his head and kissed her lips...

New Year's Day

When the brothers Huo Rui and Huo An woke up in the morning, they looked at the snow all over the ground and screamed with excitement.

After putting on their clothes, they hurried to Luo Chaoyan's yard.

Luo Chaoyan was lying in the warm bed at this time and didn't want to get out of bed. She really admired Huo Jin for being able to get up on time in such a cold day.

"Mother!"

The voice arrived before the person did, which is what these two brothers are talking about.

Luo Chaoyan knew she couldn't stay in bed any longer, so she had to get up and get dressed. After she put on her clothes, she asked Pineapple to bring in the toiletries.

The Huo Rui brothers ran in.

Huo An said excitedly: "Mom, let's go play snowball fight."

Seeing that the tips of their noses were red, Luo Chaoyan said with a smile, "Look at your noses."

"Have you had breakfast?"

The two shook their heads and said, "No."

Luo Chaoyan asked Fengli to bring breakfast over and also asked someone to make a pot of pear tea. Everyone had a charcoal stove in their house that night, so the weather must have been quite dry, so drinking some pear tea would be just right to moisten the lungs.

After they finished breakfast, Luo Chaoyan took them outside to the yard to make a snowman. Afraid that their hands would get frostbite, we asked them to wear gloves.

So the mother and her two sons started busying themselves in the yard.

The three of them made four snowmen, which was exactly the size of their family of four.

Huo An disliked Huo Rui's image of himself and said, "Brother, I'm not that fat!"

Huo Rui explained, "An An, it's easier to recognize you this way. Others will know it's you at first glance."

"You...brother, you are bad!" Huo An stomped his feet angrily.

He squatted down, made a snowball, and when his brother wasn't paying attention, he threw it at him.

After smashing it, he ran away, laughing as he ran.

Huo Rui also made a snowball and chased after him, saying, "An An, stop right there! You're trying to sneak attack me!"

Luo Chaoyan ignored the two of them. She looked at the snowman she had made and expressed her satisfaction.

"Ayan!"

Huo Jin came over at this time.

Luo Chaoyan looked at him and said, "Huo Jin, do you think it looks like our family of four? '

Huo Jin nodded and smiled, "Very similar!"

Huo An and Huo Rui saw their father coming over and said with a smile: "Dad, let's play together!"

Luo Chaoyan smiled: "Then how do we, husband and wife, treat you two brothers?"

"Okay!" Huo Rui nodded.

Huo An said: "Mother, you are adults and we are children. To be fair, father can only be one hand."

Luo Chaoyan rolled her eyes at him and said, "You might as well let your father use one foot." How can you make a snowball with one hand?

Huo An chuckled and said, "If father is willing, we have no objection."

"Stop talking nonsense, let's get started."

After the fifth day, the court resumed its morning sessions. Huo Jin and Master Huo began to get busy again.

…

Huo Family Academy

Gao Che walked into the classroom with a lunch box and said to Huo Rui, "Huo Rui, this is the snack I sent to An An. Please bring it back to him for me."

Huo Rui took the lunch box and said with a smile, "Thank you, Gao Che."

Gao Che waved his hand and said with a smile: "We are all good friends. And I like An An very much."

Huo Rui smiled and said, "Then don't be too obvious, otherwise my brother will open a dyeing room."

"By the way, what were you talking about just now?" Gao Che asked.

Huo Yu said: "Someone is planning to leave us."

Gao Che was stunned, "What do you mean?"

Huo Rui said: "I might be sent to Xuanzhou with my father."

"Ah? So sudden?"

Huo Shun sighed and said, "Boss, now that you're gone, will we not see each other again for many years?"

"Yeah, boss, will we be old men with gray hair when we meet again?" Huo Ze said.

Huo Rui said: "It's not that exaggerated. As long as Xuanzhou is reorganized, father may come back."

"At least three years, at most five years."

Gao Che said, "I heard that Xuanzhou suffered a severe flood before. Now is the time for everything to be rebuilt. We need a capable person to go to Xuanzhou to preside over the reconstruction."

"Huo Rui, I envy you so much. The book says that reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. I have never set foot outside the capital since I was a child."

Huo Shun said: "Gao Che, after hearing what you said, I also want to follow the boss."

"Yes!" Huo Ze nodded.

Huo Rui smiled and said, "Hehe, don't be sad. If I come across anything interesting over there, I will definitely bring it back to you."

"Really?" Huo Shun said, "Boss, you must remember this."

Huo Ze said: "Boss, but I still can't bear to leave you."

Huo Yu patted his shoulder and said, "We will all go our separate ways when we grow up, so just adapt to it in advance."

Huo Rui said: "If you miss me, just write to me."

…

Huo Mansion

Luo Chaoyan flipped through the map, carefully analyzing the possible places to visit on the way to Xuanzhou, and then asked Fengli to register them. Hehe, she wants to make a travel guide. How nice it would be to travel and have fun at the same time! The freedom she had long awaited finally came.

Although I had heard Huo Jin mention it before, I didn't expect him to settle the matter so quickly. It’s so reliable!

A maid came in and said, "Young Madam, the old lady wants you to go to her yard."

Luo Chaoyan nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

When she arrived at Madam Huo's yard, she saw Huo Rui and Huo An both gathered in front of the old lady.

Seeing the old lady's depressed expression, it's easy to imagine that she must be reluctant to let her grandson leave.

Luo Chaoyan bowed to the old lady and mother-in-law and said, "Grandma, mother!"

Mrs. Huo asked, "Ayan, what do you think about Ajin's exile?"

What do you think? That would be a great thing for her.

Luo Chaoyan thought for a while and said, "Mother, Xuanzhou suffered a serious disaster a few days ago. I think His Majesty values ​​my husband's talents very much, so he gave him the important task of reconstruction."

Mrs. Huo nodded and said, "What are your plans?"

Luo Chaoyan said virtuously, "As a wife, I naturally prioritize taking care of my husband's daily life, so that he can focus on his official duties without any worries."

Mrs. Huo sighed softly and said, "Your grandmother and I just can't bear to leave you."

Luo Chaoyan thought about it and said considerately: "Mother, An An and Xiao Rui are still young, why not... let them stay in Kyoto."

What!

Huo Rui and Huo An looked at her in disbelief. Their mother didn't plan to take them with her.

That won’t work! He had already boasted to his friends that he was going out, and if he didn't go, he would be laughed at by them.

Absolutely not!
