Although the young man admired Qiang, Huo Nian also had a good impression of his biological father, but this feeling was different from when he faced Yang and Huo Erhuai.

Although Huo Erhuai and Yang were not biological parents, he grew up in their arms and was always protected and cared for by them.

The roles of father and mother have always been played by Huo Erhuai and Yang.

Huo Nian never thought of leaving them.

He was reluctant to leave them.

"Can't you bear to leave your parents?" Huo Xi asked him.

Huo Nian's eyes were red, and he nodded: "We only know him in that family, and no one else knows him. He can come to see us like he is now."

He couldn't let go of his parents, An'an, his uncle's family, and everything in Qionghua Lane.

Not willing to give up, but also afraid.

"Sister, can't we still live at home?" She pursed her lips and looked at Huo Xi.

"Which heir apparent left our family? And you're not old enough to open a mansion yet. Besides, even if you open a mansion, you won't be moving out of the mansion."

"Then, can we allow our parents to come with us?"

"What do you think?"

Huo Nian's eyes turned red and he picked up his fingers.

Huo Erhuai and Yang were looking for the siblings. When they heard these words, they were extremely sad.

"My son!" Yang entered the room, hugged Nian'er and started crying.

Such a small person, wrapped in swaddling clothes, was so soft that they didn't dare to hold him tightly.

For fear that he would not be able to survive on the boat with them, he and Huo Erhuai did not dare to sleep at night. The couple took turns watching and taking care of him. It was not easy to raise him to such a big size...

"mother!"

"Damn it!"

Huo Erhuai also came over and held his mother and daughter in tears.

The child riding on his shoulders grew up, splashed in the water with him, and fished on the boat. The child who said he wanted to fish and sell money for him to take care of in his old age grew up and wanted to fly away.

My heart felt like a knife.

Huo Xi also felt uncomfortable and didn't know how to comfort him.

Huo Erhuai wiped his tears and comforted his mother and daughter: "Okay, don't cry anymore. Xi'er and Nian'er are just changing places to live. They are still in the capital. My parents can also visit you often."

He wiped a handful on his face and looked at Huo Xi: "Your mother and I have discussed that when you move to Zhang's house, our family will move to a house in the inner city. It's not far away. If you miss me, you can

If you come to see us, your parents will also come to see you."

Huo Xi nodded: "That's great. My parents live close to us and we can take care of each other."

Huo Erhuai responded: "That's right." Without seeing the two children, he and his mother couldn't let go.

The couple comforted Huo Nian for a long time, and then he felt better.

That night, Mu Yan came over.

"You can arrange a yard for me and I'll stay here at night."

Huo Xi was surprised: "Why?"

"I'm afraid that Wu will jump over the wall and bring everyone here. Until you return to the British government, they will stay by your side."

"We have enough manpower now."

"It doesn't hurt to have more."

Huo Xi asked Vanilla Xiacha to clean up the yard and arrange Mu Yan's manpower.

Mu Yan waited for her to finish her instructions. Seeing her frown, he said with relief: "Don't be afraid, the British government is not a dragon's den or a tiger's den. I will arrange for someone to follow you in, and there are also secret places. Don't worry."

Huo Xi glanced at him gratefully.

Mu Yan tilted his head: "Are the clothes ready?"

"No." Huo Xi answered honestly.

Mu Yan looked at her hands and sighed: "It seems that I have to wait for my clothes to be put on, so I really can't count on you."

"I said I'm not good at sewing, but you pointed at me." You glared at him.

Mu Yan touched his nose and said, "Then you have to move faster. You can't do these things after entering the British government."

Huo Xi felt very melancholy when he heard this.

It is almost foreseeable that after returning to Zhang Mansion, I will be very upset when I have to abide by this rule and that rule.

Mu Yan looked at her, "Just wait... later, I won't restrain you, you can do whatever you want."

Huo Xina didn't know what he was talking about. She picked up a tea mat on the table and threw it at him.

Mu Yan quickly caught it with his eyes and hands. He was in a good mood and took the tea mat in his hand to play with it.

Hearing that Huo Nian was reluctant to let go of his parents and cried for a long time in the afternoon, he comforted her: "After entering Zhang's house, let Nian'er and Jie'er go to the Imperial College. He is more comfortable studying outside. He also has time to go.

Look at your parents, it will also give him some time to adapt."

"I'm afraid Nian'er won't be able to get into the Imperial College, right? Isn't there only one place for each house?"

"He is the eldest son of the Duke's palace, but he can't get a special exception to enter the Imperial College? Besides, isn't there Jie'er? For Jie'er's sake, the emperor will also let him accompany Jie'er to the Imperial College."

It would be best if Nian'er could be admitted to the Imperial College.

In addition to the gathering of famous teachers, the main thing is to let him integrate into the circle of aristocratic families and make more friends, which will also be of great help to him.

"Did the British Lord say when he would come to take you back home?"

"He sent a message to ask us. I said I would inform him after things are settled."

"Then let's arrange things in the next two days. Now that the news has spread, it's not appropriate for you to still live here. It will cause a commotion, so don't cause any more trouble."

After thinking for a while, he said, "It would be best if your parents, your uncle's family, and Mr. Qin's grandparents also live in the inner city."

"My uncle and Mr. Qin also live in the inner city?" There are also shops and workshops in the outer city.

Mu Yan nodded: "After the news about you spreads, I'm afraid there will be a lot of people fawning over your uncle. It's better to keep a low profile and not attract attention."

Huo Xi thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

I thought there would be a big storm at night and everyone in the house was on alert, but unexpectedly it was calm and the wild dogs outside stopped barking.

Let the whole family have a good sleep.

Huo Xi wondered if the Wu family wanted to attack them in the British government?

As soon as he woke up, Huo Xi began to arrange various things and arrange manpower in various places.

Shen Qianzhong looked at Huo Xi and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

A few years ago, he was in such a state of poverty that he took his son to the capital to seek life. When he got sick, he had no money to treat him, and his son almost sold himself and was almost arrested as a eunuch.

The girl in front of him, who was less than seven years old at the time, entrusted him with all her wealth and spoke of her ambitions without any concealment.

He also said that he would open shops all over the cities along the canal.

At that time, he was desperate and wanted to take a gamble to see how far this little girl could go.

Unexpectedly, in these years, he went from earning five taels of monthly silver to tens of taels and hundreds of taels by the end of the year, to receiving dividends of thousands of taels and tens of thousands of taels of silver...

He followed her and made the right bet.

He always felt that this little girl should not be underestimated, but he didn't expect that she would hide such an identity!

The eldest daughter of the Duke’s mansion!

God had favored him so much that the father and son actually climbed up to the Duke's Mansion!

"Don't worry, boss. As long as I'm here, I will definitely take good care of Guangfeng Water and make it bigger and bigger!" The higher the status of the boss, the more stable their business name will be.

Huo Xi smiled and said, "We should stick to our usual style and keep a low profile. There are many noble families in Kyoto. If you don't stand out, you can just make money from us quietly."

Shen Qianzhong was very impressed.

Nodding: "Understood. As the boss said, a small appearance means a big belly. I will also explain it to the shopkeepers below. We can just do the same as before. I also warn those who know the truth, keep their mouths and don't rely on them. The girl's identity is domineering."

Huo Xi nodded: "Exactly, let's just keep doing business. We don't seek excellence, just stability. Now we have more shops and more and more people. Many people live on our Guangfeng water. Don’t cause everyone to lose their livelihood.”

"Yes. Don't worry, boss. I will definitely warn them to be careful."

Yang Fu nodded: "Don't worry, Xi'er. I'll listen to you and move to the inner city with you. Shopkeeper Shen and I will keep an eye on the shop. Just take care of yourself and Nian'er. Don't worry about the shop."

"Okay. I can rest assured with you."

Shen Qianzhong thought for a while: "Then let my family move to the inner city. We will live close to you and we can discuss things easily. If there is a curfew, it will be inconvenient to travel back and forth between the inner city and the outer city. Besides, Shen Luo also has to continue studying. , it would also be beneficial to get to know more people in the inner city."

Huo Xi nodded, "Very good. This way we can live close to each other, so it's easy to discuss things and take care of each other."

She needs someone to help her, and she can be there at any time.

Shen Qianzhong has saved a lot of money over the years and can afford a house in the inner city. Besides, Shen Luo is already a scholar. He will continue to take the college entrance examination and it will be beneficial to meet some people in the inner city.
To be continued...
