Chapter 166
Huo Yu said: "Master said that excessive modesty is pride. I just know myself very well."
Luo Chaoyan looked at him inexplicably, her eyes flickered, and she said, "Huo Yu, do you want a gift?"
When Huo An saw her expression, he felt happy, thinking that his mother seemed to be doing something bad.
Huo Yu raised his eyebrows. Although he really liked the gift she gave him, why did she give him a gift for no reason? Why did he feel that it was malicious?
Seeing his suspicious look and a nonchalant look, Luo Chaoyan said, “Well, since you don’t want it, then I’ll save myself the trouble.”
Huo Yu extended his hand towards her and said, "A gift from an elder cannot be refused. Since Madam is so kind as to want to give me a gift, as a junior, I can't refuse it either."
Luo Chaoyan curled her lips slightly and said, "Okay, then close your eyes."
"You're not going to do anything bad, are you?" Huo Yu hesitated.
Luo Chaoyan waved her hand and said, "Am I that kind of person?"
Huo Yu really wanted to reply to her and say yes, but he really wanted the thing she gave him, so he had to close his eyes.
Seeing that he closed his eyes, Luo Chaoyan rubbed her hands first, then reached out to his cheek and was about to pinch his face, but saw that he opened his eyes.
"you……"
Luo Chaoyan didn't care about him and pinched it directly, and even pulled his face to confirm that it was indeed very thick.
"pain!"
Luo Chaoyan let him go and said with a smile: "I thought you were thicker than a city wall, so you shouldn't feel any pain."
Huo Yu rubbed his face and said, "You pinched me, bring me the gift."
Luo Chaoyan said innocently: "Hasn't it been given to you?"
Huo Yu was stunned for a moment, then he realized that he had been fooled by her. He said with some dissatisfaction: "Madam, you always like to bully children."
"No way, haven't you heard it? Beating is love and scolding is care. This is my love for you as your elder." Luo Chaoyan said shamelessly.
Huo Yu rolled his eyes at her, then looked at Huo An and said, "An An, does your mother also 'love' you in this way?"
Huo An shook his head and said, "No, I'm not thick-skinned."
Huo Yu choked.
Huo An frowned and said, "My mother only deducts my chicken legs."
There was some grievance in his voice.
Huo Yu pursed his lips and looked at Huo An's chubby body. This... indeed needed to be cut back.
Seeing that he actually agreed, Huo An gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Yu, you are bad too."
He turned around angrily, only to see the big brother he had seen in the palace last time. He waved at him and said, "Big brother!"
Gao Che had been standing aside for a while, but he had never dared to step forward. Now, seeing Huo An calling him with a smile, he walked over.
"Mrs. Huo!"
Luo Chaoyan nodded slightly and smiled, "Little grandson." She was a little surprised, as she thought that Gao Che, the little grandson who had no sense of existence, could not participate in the autumn hunt.
Gao Che seemed to see through her confusion and said, "The Empress Dowager sent someone to bring me here." To be honest, he really had to thank Madam Huo for helping him out of trouble in the palace last time. He also caught the Empress Dowager's eye by testifying for her, which made his life in the palace much easier.
"Mrs. Huo, thank you for helping me out last time. I...I don't have anything good to give you, so I'll just give you this jade pendant."
Gao Che took out a jade pendant from his chest and handed it to Luo Chaoyan.
Luo Chaoyan waved her hand and said, "Little grandson, you also testified for me last time, so we are even. How can I take your things?" The jade pendant was wrapped in a handkerchief. She must have cherished it very much. He also helped her, so she was not a shameless person, so how could she have the nerve to take it.
This child has an awkward status and has to live his life at the mercy of others in the palace, but his character seems to be better than other imperial grandchildren. It's a pity that he has a rebellious father, otherwise his future would definitely be bright.
"this……"
Huo An said: "Big brother, please take it back. Mother is not interested in these things."
Gao Che was stunned.
Huo An counted on his fingers and said, "My mother likes to eat, play, and watch plays..."
The corners of Luo Chaoyan's lips twitched. This... this made it seem like she was not doing her job properly.
Huo An said: "Big brother, come to our farm one day and ask mother to make you grilled fish. It's so delicious." As he said this, he smacked his lips.
Luo Chaoyan rolled her eyes at him. This little fat boy really never forgets to eat wherever he goes.
Gao Che felt a little envious. He heard that Mrs. Huo was a stepmother, but it was obvious that both brothers of the Huo family liked her. He noticed it when he defended her in the palace last time. Mother! He misses his mother too! But……
Seeing that he was suddenly feeling a little depressed, Huo An took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve and wanted to pour a candy for him, but after thinking about it, he put it back. There was only one candy left in the bottle, which he would eat tomorrow, so he took out some raisins from his purse and handed them to him, saying, "Big brother, these raisins are very sweet, try them!" Mother said that when you are in a bad mood, eating sweets will make you feel better.
Gao Che was stunned for a moment, then he reached out to take it and said, "Thank you, brother!"
Huo An waved his hand and said, "You're welcome."
Luo Chaoyan looked at Huo An with amusement. She did not miss the action of him taking out the porcelain bottle. She knew without thinking that the fat boy was reluctant to part with his candy. But it's true. Now all the candies in her hand have been squeezed out by this foodie. Next time she wants to eat some, she will have to find a way to trick her uncle's two nephews.
Huo Yu looked at Huo An and said, "An An, why didn't you give it to Brother Yu?"
Huo An snorted and said, "Brother Yu is bad, I won't give it to you."
"Stingy!" Huo Yu said.
Huo An made a face at him and said, "I am small, so I am stingy."
Huo Yu sneered and thought to himself, you may be young, but your body is not small.
"Big brother, um...if you can come out of the palace to play with us at that time, we will treat you to grilled fish, and you will also treat us to snacks, okay!" Huo An said with clear eyes. The snack he and his mother had in the palace last time was delicious. I haven't eaten it for a long time, and I miss it a lot.
Luo Chaoyan raised her hand and patted his forehead. How could she not know what the fat boy was thinking? If it were any other imperial grandchildren, it might be possible, but Gao Che's life in the palace was not easy, so how could he bring any snacks to them? Wouldn't that make things difficult for him? And he shouldn't be able to enter and leave the palace at will.
She was just thinking about what to say so as not to upset the child, but she saw Gao Che smiled and said, "Okay, I will ask the Empress Dowager to let me visit your house when the time comes."
"An An, what snacks do you want?"
Huo An then recounted all the snacks he had eaten at the last Lotus Banquet.
Luo Chaoyan rubbed her forehead and was still ordering food.
Huo Yu whispered to her, "An An has learned your essence."
Luo Chaoyan glared at him and said, "I'm not as greedy as him." Even if she wanted to eat, she would be embarrassed to say that to others.
