Chapter 321 Confused
"The Huo family is not a family without foundation. Besides, these were originally going to be handed over to you in the future. It is more to our liking to just give them to you now."
Old Master Huo spoke seriously and glanced at Huo Jinzhi indifferently, as if he didn't take this grandson seriously.
Chen Zhu pursed his lips and said nothing. When he was hesitating, Mrs. Wen's loud voice floated over: "Grandpa, we are here to wish you a happy new year too."
Her hands reacted faster than her brain. She stuffed the house ownership transfer document into the box and placed it directly on the chair under the stool.
Winter clothes are not that thin, and Chen Zhuyi was wearing a skirt, so the distance between the chairs was just right to avoid being seen by others.
Mrs. Wen came over with Jinhua and Zhaodi. She first gave Chenzhu a New Year's gift and then smiled: "I also prepared something for the child in your belly. It may not be suitable, but it is a token of my love."
"Thank you for still thinking of me." Chen Zhu touched the jade amulet in his hand with a gentle look in his eyes.
An old lady like Mrs. Wen is, after all, old and has the good fortune of having many children. What she is giving a gift for now is not just the gift itself, but also her own blessing.
Although it is just a folk legend, it ultimately comes down to other people's concern.
At the end of the morning, the Huo family just smiled and looked at Chen Zhuyi who was protecting these things, and they felt warmer in their hearts.
They thought Huo Jinzhi would live out his life alone, but unexpectedly, he could find such a sensible and considerate girl.
The most important thing is that she does not covet anything from the Huo family, but is devoted to them.
"Finally, we got rid of all these people." Chen Zhu let out a long breath, with a small expression of relief on his face, looking a little cute and adorable.
Huo Jinzhi just shook his head helplessly: "They did this on purpose, just to make you nervous. Don't worry about their bad intentions."
As he spoke, he simply pulled the person outside, obviously not intending to let Chen Zhuyi stay any longer.
The small box was placed on the ground. Before Chen Zhuyi could speak, he saw Su Yunya's teasing look.
She lowered her head quickly, pretending that she didn't feel it, and walked forward with Huo Jinzhi.
"You are so easy to fool." Huo Jinzhi said, pinching his face with a little helplessness.
But there was a hint of seriousness in Chen Zhuyi's dark eyes: "That's because... they are very important people."
When Mr. Huo gave the gift, he was sincere and there was no temptation at all.
It was at this moment that Chen Zhuyi realized that it was because he was too nervous that he caused this misunderstanding, and he pinched Huo Jinzhi's clothes in anger.
"Why don't you remind me? How can I meet them in the future?"
Even though it was a gift given with good intentions, it still made Chen Zhuyi feel a little embarrassed.
When she thought about the Huo family watching her make a fool of herself, Chen Zhuyi wished she could just move out and never come back.
"They will only feel that the warmth is worth it. You love us so much, and we feel the same way." Huo Jinzhi held the person in his arms.
After this little misunderstanding, no one in the family mentioned it. Instead, Huo Jinzhi took the initiative to return the gift and gave it to Chen Zhuyi.
She stuffed it into the space with her backhand.
The Huo family's relatives also took advantage of the past few days to come to the door one after another. The old man cut off all ties with those who wanted to take advantage of him before.
He joined the army when he was young and fought in all directions. His parents died early, and now he has few relatives and blood relatives left. Those who can come to visit him at this time are all relatives from the same clan.
Naturally, there isn't much affection between them, and now it's just that they don't feel awkward when they meet each other.
But he also has people he needs to care about more, so he should stay away from those who only take advantage of him.
The old men of the four major families also came. I don’t know what they talked about with Mr. Huo. The next day, they went out to eat together.
That mysterious posture aroused doubts in Chen Zhu's heart as soon as she saw it. Unfortunately, no one answered her question. It was only Huo Jin who brought it up later.
It’s all about the construction of the port city.
Chen Zhuyi, with the help of his mother, became a popular figure among the people and firmly became the hub that maintained the four major families.
Mo Cuilin also followed, which was beyond Chen Zhuyi's expectation.
In his previous life, this person was determined to follow the lighthouse and would not give up until he killed himself.
And his identity became the straw that broke the camel's back.
"Can you take me to see the scenery of Jing City?"
Mo Cuilin acted frankly and extended the invitation openly.
Chen Zhuyi was a little surprised, pursed his lips and smiled: "I'm not familiar with this place..."
"I can just take you guys out to play. You all know how to drive, right?" Huo Qiyun came over and pushed away Mo Cuilin who was sneaking up on him without leaving a trace.
He was angry at her for not fighting back and glanced at the still calm Huo Jinzhi. His wife was about to run away with another man, and he was still pretending here!
"Yes." Chen Zhu nodded.
The itinerary was arranged by Huo Qiyun, and people from the four major families went along to play. The trip was like a wedding procession, and it looked extremely lively.
Gongsun Mei hugged Chen Zhuyi's arm, leaned back with her eyes slightly closed, and her pretty face showed a rare look of relaxation.
"It's freezing here. Luckily I bought a lot of clothes."
She mumbled something, but suddenly felt a chill.
Chen Zhuyi opened the car window and large snowflakes fell. Gongsun Mei widened her eyes, stretched out her hand cautiously, and watched the snowflakes melt in her palm.
"It's snowing! It's actually snowing!" Gongsun Mei was a little excited and wanted to jump out of the car and find someone to play snowballs with. Yao Zongliang was also happy. His gaze turned to Wu Liuxing several times, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.
The bright-looking little girl of the past has now lost her vitality. She hides willingly in the crowd and hardly dares to expose herself.
This posture makes people's hearts tremble.
Yao Zongliang also wanted to go find her, but before he could say anything, Wu Liuxing interrupted him coldly, as if she was unwilling to interact with him anymore.
Sometimes, some people can only disconnect in a confused manner.
Red walls and white snow, their attraction today is the Forbidden City. The ancient and majestic palace suddenly pulled them into that snowy world, as if they had traveled through time.
Huo Qiyun talked incessantly about the past, the love and hate between the emperor and his favorite concubine, and the various struggles in the palace. Even if it was unofficial history, he could make it very interesting.
The old men were no longer old enough to listen to stories, but they still clapped their hands in cooperation.
Huo Jinzhi grabbed Chen Zhuyi's hand, feeling fortunate: "We are in the best of times."
