Chapter 328 Hostility
"Sister You!" Upon learning that the Yuan Mansion's carriage had arrived at the door, Huo Wan happily went out to greet it with Wu Ying and Wu Hen. Seeing Yuan Ziyou following behind Liu, she happily called out to her and threw herself beside her. Then, she smiled and bowed to Liu, "Wan'er greets Aunt Liu!"
Liu smiled and said to Huo Wan, "Wan'er seems to have grown taller!"
"Hehe, Aunt Liu, my mother said the same thing!" Huo Wan said happily when she heard that.
Previously, Huo Wan was taken to her maternal family to escape the summer heat, but a flood broke out and she has been stranded at her maternal family's home ever since. She just returned to the capital a few days ago.
"Wan'er has really grown a lot taller!" Yuan Ziyu gestured and said with a smile.
"Sister You, I've been practicing martial arts diligently these past few months. I've mastered everything you taught me!" Huo Wan said to Yuan Ziyou, seemingly taking credit for the performance. "Let's have a sparring match sometime, and you can help me see."
"Okay!" Yuan Ziyu smiled and said, "I'll take you to the farm in a couple of days, and then we can have a competition!"
"Yeah!" Huo Wan's eyes lit up when she heard that. She nodded hurriedly and said mysteriously to Yuan Ziyu, "Sister You, my eldest brother was going to wait for you at home, but he had to leave the house for something urgent. He told me to tell you that you must wait for him to come back."
After saying that, she looked gossipy again: "Sister You, when will you really become my sister-in-law? I'm waiting anxiously!"
Yuan Ziyu blushed slightly and gently tapped Huo Wan's forehead: "Then you have to wait patiently!"
"Ah~!" Huo Wan sighed and took Yuan Ziyu's arm: "But I want to see Sister You every day, what should I do!"
Liu, who was walking in front, turned around and said with a smile: "That's easy. You can come back with us today and live with your sister You."
As soon as Liu finished speaking, Meng's laughter came over: "Sister Liu, you can take this naughty monkey away and leave my You'er behind."
It turned out that the group had already arrived at Meng's yard. Meng came out to greet them and just happened to hear what Liu said.
Huo Wan's eyes widened when she heard this: "Mom, I've only been back for a few days, and you already dislike me again!"
After saying that, he exaggeratedly hugged Yuan Ziyu's arm and pretended to be pitiful: "Sister You, look how pitiful I am, you must feel so sorry for me!"
Yuan Ziyou smiled and said, "Well, if you could cry a little or shed a few tears, it would be more convincing!"
"Sister You, you won't help me!" Huo Wan wailed.
Mrs. Meng laughed and said, "You've only been back for a few days, and you're already acting so naughty. If I don't despise you, who else should I despise?"
As he said that, he stepped forward, took Yuan Ziyu's hand and said, "Hurry up and learn from your sister You!"
Liu smiled and said, "Sister Meng, I think Wan'er is doing very well the way she is. Don't let her be like my You'er. You know, this child has been practicing martial arts with her father and brother since she was little. She's gotten into so many troubles since she was little. It really worries me!"
"I still think You'er is better." Meng said with a smile.
Liu also smiled and said, "No, Wan'er is so nice."
As Meng and Liu talked, they walked into the house together!
Yuan Ziyou and Huo Wan looked at each other, and Huo Wan blinked: "Sister You, are we being disliked?"
"It seems so!" Yuan Ziyu said with a smile.
"Hmph!" Huo Wan raised her chin. "Then let's dislike them too. Come on, Sister You, let's go to my yard!"
"good!"
After the two of them reported to Madam Meng and Madam Liu, Huo Wan excitedly led Yuan Ziyou to her courtyard, saying to her, "Sister You, I brought you some delicious food this time. I guarantee you haven't eaten anything like it before. This is my first time eating it!"
"Oh?" Yuan Ziyu asked curiously, "Did you bring them back from your maternal family? Were they brought back by those ships?"
Huo Wan's maternal family lives in Yanyang, which is by the sea. Every day, many ships dock at the pier on the seashore, and these ships also bring a lot of imported goods.
"Yes, it's a very delicious fruit that I have never seen before!" Huo Wan nodded quickly.
Yuan Ziyu was curious and was about to speak when she heard Huo Jiao's voice: "Eighth sister got something good, but she didn't think about her own sisters, but thought about the sister from the Eighth Route Army. It really makes us cousins sad!"
As she spoke, Huo Jiao brought Huo Na, Huo Xian, and a girl in green who Yuan Ziyu was not familiar with. They came out from the other side of the flowers together and looked at Yuan Ziyu and Huo Wan with a smile.
When she saw Huo Jiao and the others, Yuan Ziyu's expression faded. She knew that both Huo Jiao and Huo Na were quite hostile to her, so she would not rush to get close to them. Moreover, the girl in green, whom she did not know, was looking at her with a scrutinizing look. Although it was very subtle, Yuan Ziyu still sensed the full hostility from her.
Huh! Hostility?
Yuan Ziyu raised his eyebrows slightly. This inexplicable hostility, coupled with the fact that the girl came with Huo Jiao and others, reminded Yuan Ziyu of someone.
"Oh, third sister, fourth sister and seventh sister are here to visit grandma again. Why don't you flatter grandma but come to my side to eavesdrop?" This place is very close to Huo Wan's yard. Huo Wan naturally knew that these people came to her again, looking for an opportunity to take advantage of her.
As for the girl in green who followed, Huo Wan knew who she was, but she didn't even glance at her.
"Look at what Eighth Sister said. We sisters have come here with great difficulty, so how can we not come to see Eighth Sister?" Huo Na said with a smile.
"Look at me?" Huo Wan sneered. "Thank you for your concern, Fourth Sister. Now that you've seen me, sisters, please hurry back to Grandmother. I'm entertaining Sister You today, so I won't keep you here any longer!"
"We are all sisters from the same family. It would be so lively if we were all together. Could it be that Eighth Sister wants to have a private conversation with Second Miss Yuan?" Huo Jiao said with a laugh.
"Yes!" Huo Wan smiled and said, "I want to have a private conversation with Sister You, so it's not convenient for outsiders to hear!"
After saying that, he glanced at the girl in green, and saw that the girl in green was biting her lip with an embarrassed look on her face!
Isn't this outsider talking about her?
"Look at what Eighth Sister said. How can there be any outsiders here?" Huo Jiao asked with a pursed smile. Seeing the look in Huo Wan's eyes as she looked at the girl in green, she smiled again and said, "Eighth Sister, this is my cousin Yu from my mother's family. You've met her. We are related, so she's Eighth Sister's cousin."
The girl in green was Huo Jiao's maternal cousin Yu Fangyin.
Yu Fangyin smiled and said to Huo Wan, "Eighth cousin..."
"Don't!" Huo Wan interrupted Yu Fangyin as soon as she heard it: "I have many cousins, I don't need any. Miss Yu, it's better not to be so self-indulgent."
