Chapter 545 Young Marshal Huo's Little Mute 36
But she can't speak.
The phone kept ringing.
Song Jinhuan hesitated for a moment before stepping forward, but after thinking about it, she picked it up anyway.
A familiar yet slightly distorted voice came from the other end.
It's Hozer.
The man's bent index finger rested on the table. There was no response from the other end of the phone, only a faint breathing sound.
A fleeting smile crossed Huo Ze's eyes as he tentatively called out in a low voice, "Little mute?"
The breathing sounds on the other end were noticeably heavier.
He couldn't help but chuckle, and just as he was about to speak, a "sizzle" sound came from the other end.
The call was disconnected.
I'm angry.
Hearing the laughter coming from the other end of the line, Song Jinhuan became furious and impulsively hung up the phone.
What are you laughing at!
What's so funny?
When she gets angry, she'll bite his face to pieces!
After silently uttering a string of harsh words in her mind, Song Jinhuan's mood brightened considerably.
Just then, the bell rang again.
Song Jinhuan's heart skipped a beat. The other party clearly knew it was her, yet still called. Could it be something important?
She picked it up again.
"Little mute, are you angry?"
Song Jinhuan's eyes flickered, her memory returning to the scene where the other party asked her to speak.
His fingers gripped the phone tightly.
I wasn't angry at first, but now I'm feeling a bit irritated again.
"If you're angry, tap the handle twice; if you're not angry, tap it once."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Ze heard two rather forceful knocks coming from the other side.
He coughed twice. "I've finished my official business. On my way back, I'll pass by shops selling chicken oil cakes, rolled pastries, mung bean cakes, and fermented rice cakes. Are you still angry?"
A distinct sound of swallowing saliva came from the other side, followed by a soft knocking sound.
Huo Ze smiled slightly. "Okay, I understand."
There was no further movement from the other side.
Huo Ze stood still for a while before saying, "You hang up first."
There was still no "sizzle" sound from the other side.
Huo Ze's eyes curved into a smile, and he said with a hint of helplessness, "I will bring back chicken oil cakes, rolled pastries, mung bean cakes, and fermented rice cakes."
With a "whoosh" sound, it immediately came.
The man, seeing the pretext, chuckled to himself.
Favorability: 58.
Having received Huo Ze's assurance, Song Jinhuan happily returned to the house and continued her previous work.
When Lu Xiangling returned to the young marshal's mansion, she was shocked by the sight of so many "double happiness" characters everywhere.
She found the steward and declared her loyalty, saying, "Steward, my hand is almost healed and I can come back to work."
The housekeeper looked her over in surprise; her complexion was rosy, and she had indeed recovered quite well.
How could it have healed so quickly in just a few days?
She has a really good physique.
"There's nothing to do at the manor these days, so you should continue to rest until you're fully recovered."
It is unknown what this woman's purpose is, or what organization is behind her.
The young marshal has already sent people to investigate, so we can only deal with it for now.
Lu Xiangling: "The household is holding a celebration, and it is precisely the time when manpower is needed. This servant will certainly be able to lend a hand."
“I have been in good health since I was a child, so the steward doesn’t need to worry too much.”
The butler's eyelids twitched; this was utter nonsense.
He smiled and said, "In that case, you can go to the backyard to feed the pigs, horses, cattle, sheep, and some chickens and ducks."
The feed alone requires a long time to prepare.
After feeding them all, I was exhausted.
Lu Xiangling's face turned pale, but she couldn't refuse, since she had asked for the job herself.
She felt that the housekeeper had noticed something, but seeing his smiling face dispelled her doubts.
As long as one can stay in the Young Marshal's Mansion, it means there is still hope.
