Chapter 93: What's the difference between him and a dandy boy?
Huo Jin stood up with difficulty, made a "shut up" gesture to Wei San, and pointed at the door.
Wei San sighed helplessly and tiptoed forward to support him.
After quietly walking out and closing the door, Huo Jin saw a tall shadow swaying in the moonlight.
Leaning against the railing of the corridor, he began to try to lift his legs without hesitation, but every movement was accompanied by severe pain.
Cold sweat dripped down his forehead, soaking his lapel, but he clenched his teeth tightly, said nothing, and his sword-like brows were almost twisted into a ball.
"Young Master, take a break." Wei San advised with concern, but Huo Jin just shook his head firmly.
He stubbornly continued to practice, repeating the simple yet difficult movements over and over again in the moonlight.
The night wind blew up his messy hair, but he was completely unaware. His mind was filled with only one thought - faster, faster!
The moonlight was like a veil, lightly covering Liang Weiyuan's profile.
Hearing the subtle noise outside, her eyelashes trembled, but she did not open her eyes, only sighing in her heart.
In fact, she had already woken up when Huo Jinjian got out of bed.
No need to guess, you know what he wants to do.
She could understand Huo Jinjian's anxiety. Since persuasion was useless, she might as well ask Ye Zhonglin to prescribe more prescriptions tomorrow...
When the atmosphere in Qingzhuyuan was in full swing, Huo Siyuan did not return home for several nights in a row.
"How many days has it been?"
In the kitchen, Liang Weiyuan, wearing a brocade skirt, exuded an elegant and refreshing temperament. She asked casually while flipping through the account book.
Zhu Shu counted on his fingers, "Hah, it's been four days. I heard that the people from the second house went to look for him, but the second young master refused to come back no matter what."
"The Second Madam deliberately suppressed the news, fearing that others would find out."
As she spoke, Zhushu curled her lips. With only these people in the Marquis' Mansion, it was not easy to hide the news. She could find out with a quick investigation.
Liang Weiyuan raised her eyebrows slightly. She had been busy accompanying Huo Jin for rehabilitation recently and had not had time to deal with the second room.
It is said that Liang Shanyu went to Marquis Huo to persuade him that day, which led to the subsequent hiring of Nanny Zhou and the search for a beautiful maid.
I'm in a good mood today and have some free time, so how can I not return the favor?
Liang Weiyuan sneered and stamped the last account book. Then he calmly ordered, "Bring the cakes from the small kitchen. It's time to go see father."
After lunch, Lord Huo always stayed in the study.
Liang Weiyuan knocked lightly on the door and walked in, her voice clear and sweet: "Father, your daughter-in-law heard that you have been busy recently, so she asked the kitchen to make a few cakes that you like."
Huo Hou raised his eyes and saw the rose and kidney bean cake in the box. The sweet fragrance of the cake was indeed tempting.
"That's thoughtful." He took a bite and a hint of satisfaction appeared on his face.
Seeing this, Liang Weiyuan sighed at the right time, lowered her eyes and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Speaking of which, my daughter-in-law has something else to report to my father."
Huo Hou choked suddenly, and he didn't care that the cake crumbs fell into his robe.
The eldest daughter-in-law has been in charge of the family for so long, and she has been doing a stable and proper job, and nothing has ever gone wrong.
But now something suddenly happened to him, and Marquis Huo had to take it seriously. "What happened in the mansion?"
Seeing Marquis Huo's nervous look, Liang Weiyuan said in a gentle voice, "Don't worry, father. It's not a serious matter. It's just that your daughter-in-law is a little worried."
"It's my second brother. He's been staying out all night lately, and has caused a lot of gossip among the servants in the mansion."
She raised her head, her eyes shrouded in a faint layer of worry. "The Marquis' Mansion has always valued family traditions. If word gets out about my second brother's behavior, it will damage the family's reputation. As the head of the family, I'm really worried."
Huo Hou's expression instantly darkened, and he slammed the cake in his hand down on the table, causing ripples in the tea.
"Okay, this rebellious son!"
"It's only been a short time since you made a contribution, and you're already slacking off. How disgraceful!"
Hanging around outside, what's the difference between him and those bastard playboys?
Although his mansion has not made much achievements, it has always been praised by the public for its strict family traditions. How could it be allowed to be ruined by a rebellious son!
Thinking of this, Huo Hou suddenly stood up, his eyes filled with anger, "You did the right thing, you should have told me earlier, if you had waited any longer, who knows what kind of stupid things he would have done!"
Liang Weiyuan bowed, a faint smile on the corner of his lips, which quickly disappeared.
"It's also my duty as a daughter-in-law. Father is very busy with many things every day, and these trivial matters shouldn't bother you. But since this concerns our family tradition, I dare not hide it."
Her face was gentle, and she said with just the right amount of respect, "I hope father will discipline my second brother well and not let outsiders laugh at him."
"Well, you are sensible and always think about the Marquis' Mansion, unlike that brat who stirs up trouble all day long." Marquis Huo sighed heavily and looked at Liang Weiyuan again. He was much more satisfied with the comparison.
Liang Weiyuan bowed his head and left as if he didn't notice. The fire had already been lit, so he didn't stay any longer.
As soon as she left, Marquis Huo strode towards the main courtyard.
Yu was dressing herself in front of the mirror. Before she could insert the gold hairpins on her temples, she heard a familiar angry shout coming from outside the door.
"You still have the mood to dress up? Do you know what your good son, whom you taught well, did outside?!"
