Chapter 871
Huo Zhao couldn't imagine it.
"If there's anything you want to eat or want, just tell me. Don't overwork yourself."
Huo Zhao felt that it was too early to say these words to a three- or four-year-old child.
But the current situation is strangely fitting for this statement.
"Um!"
After eating a few more bites of pastries, Shen Nianchu couldn't sit still any longer.
Huo Zhao had someone escort him to the Prince's residence.
Watching Shen Nianchu skip away, Huo Zhao couldn't help but shake his head: "This child really takes after both sides."
Jixiang smiled and said, "Isn't that wonderful? Our young master will surely excel in both literature and martial arts in the future. Perhaps in just a few years, he will be the dream man of many young ladies in Luoyang City!"
Huo Zhao glanced at her: "You really dare to say that."
“This servant thinks so too,” Le’an said. “It’s just that our young master is too amazing.”
As the master and servants were chatting and laughing, Granny Liu arrived.
"This servant greets the young mistress."
Granny Liu bowed to Huo Zhao.
Huo Zhao told her to get up, and Granny Liu took out the silver that Qi Jing had given her, and then told her about Qi Jing coming to see her.
Finally, Granny Liu added, "I know that the young mistress has arranged for me to be there because she trusts me, and I certainly wouldn't dare to betray that trust."
Huo Zhao nodded slightly: "Since this money is for you, just keep it. How much you can earn in the future depends entirely on your abilities."
Granny Liu was taken aback. Before she could react, Jixiang said, "However, you still need to think this through. You can accept money casually, but you can't do things casually. You're smart, you must understand, right?"
Granny Liu nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes! This servant understands, this servant knows what to do, thank you young mistress!"
As she left the main courtyard, Granny Liu felt light on her feet.
She never expected that Huo Zhao would not care about her taking money, and even said that it was up to her to take as much as she wanted!
Then she wouldn't hold back.
Although her whole family lived in the Marquis's mansion and they didn't usually have many expenses, why not save more for the younger generation?
Besides, this money was practically handed to her for free!
If you refuse money that's practically handed to you, wouldn't you be a fool?
Thinking of this, Granny Liu quickly left.
In the main courtyard, Jixiang brought Huo Zhao a new cup of tea and said, "Auntie is really no simple person. She actually set her sights on the side gate so quickly!"
Qi Jing's current actions are the same as Huo Zhao's back then.
However, precisely because Huo Zhao knew where the loopholes were, she made all the necessary preparations when she first started arranging manpower.
Granny Liu's entire family was in the Marquis's residence, so there was no possibility of them betraying her, and she could rest assured.
Moreover, the side gate is different now than before. In addition to Granny Liu guarding the gate, there are several servants and guards. Whether it's through soft or hard tactics, Qi Jing has no chance of succeeding.
Le An said, "Young Madam, Aunt Qi is so restless and doesn't take your words seriously. What should we do next?"
Huo Zhaogang had just told Qi Jing to behave herself this morning, but it wasn't even noon yet, and Qi Jing had already set her sights on the back gate. If this wasn't dealt with, who knows what kind of trouble she might cause in the future!
But Huo Zhao didn't seem to be in a hurry at all: "She has only just entered the manor, what can we do to her? Let's wait and see."
