Zhan Zhumen

Chapter 248 Where to Go
Boya Shushu, a group of elementary school children bounced and walked towards the gate.

"Huo Nian, Huo Nian!"

"Huh?" Huo Nian turned to look at his classmate Fang Qi.

"Aren't your parents and sister back yet?" Fang Qi liked Huo Nian very much.Everyone called him little fat man, but Huo Nian called him by his first name, and he didn't make fun of him for eating too much at noon.

Huo Nian shook his head.

"Then do you want to come to my house to play? Let's take a rest tomorrow, and you can stay at my house. My house has a big garden and a lake. We can row boats, pick lotus, and fish!"

Huo Nian was a little moved.

There is a garden, a lake where you can row boats and pick lotus. It must be fun.He hasn't played at anyone's house yet.

"Go, go. My parents, grandpa and grandma like me, and they will like you too." It is rare to meet a little friend he likes, and Fang Qi really wants him to go to his house to play.

Huo Nian said to the little hand, "I want to ask my uncle."

"Okay, then let's ask your uncle." The two ran towards the gate holding hands.

"Look, my family's servant is here to pick me up. We'll take the carriage in a while!" One pull, but no pull.

Fang Qi turned to look at Huo Nian, and saw that he had come to his senses, had broken free from his hand, and ran out.

"Father, mother, sister!"

Ah, Huo Nian's parents and sisters are back?
"Hey, mother's Nian'er. Miss mother to death!" Yang hurriedly trotted towards Huo Nian.

"Mother, Nian'er misses you so much! It's been half a month since you left, and I'm counting it every day, it's been so long." Huo Nian was picked up by Yang Shi, hugging her neck tightly, complaining softly.

Huo Erhuai also walked over, touched his little head with a smile, and he called daddy sweetly, making Huo Erhuai smile fondly.

Huo Xi watched him act like a baby with Yang Shi and Huo Erhuai, and felt that this brat was getting more and more squeamish.

Did not see.Turning around, I saw a little fat man looking at this side a few steps away, seeing her looking at him, and walking towards him.

"Are you Huo Nian's sister?"

Ouch, this little fat man is so cute. His face is round and his eyes are too crowded to see.

Bending slightly: "Why not brother?"

"Huo Nian said he doesn't have an older brother."

This little fat man is quite smart, just as he was about to tease him, he asked: "Can I invite Huo Nian to my house to play? Let's have a rest tomorrow."

Uh……

Huo Nian has a friend that he can invite to his house?
Huo Xi felt happy for a while.

Thinking about how many friends my younger brother has, it would be good, and just about to speak, Huo Nian raised his voice, "No way. My parents are back, and I want to accompany them. Let's visit your house next time."

Yang put Huo Nian down, and Huo Nian ran to Fang Qi and said it again.

The little fat man was a little disappointed when he heard that.

A maid who looked like a nanny came over, smiled at Huo Xi and the others, and coaxed the little fat man: "Then let's invite your classmates to our house next time, okay?"

"Okay. Then it's settled. Next time Xiu Mu, you can come to my house to play."

"it is good."

The two classmates happily agreed and waved goodbye.Not long after, the students at the gate of the Shushu were all picked up.

Huo Nian was very happy to see his parents and sisters, and kept talking about the funny things that happened these days.

He couldn't help complaining that they took too long to go out this time, pouted: "Next time you go out for so long, I will ignore you."

"Okay, mother promises that it won't be so long next time. If you go out for so long, mother will take you with you, okay?"

"Hmph. Mother said it herself."

"Well, mother said, let's pull the hook."

Huo Xi saw that he was pulling Yang's hook after finishing pulling him, and wanted Huo Erhuai and her to hook him, so she couldn't help but give him a blank look.Pi Xiaozi was not afraid, and pouted at her.

After pulling the hook, he happily pulled Huo Erhuai and Yang Shi left and right, and asked again when he remembered something, "Hey, Dad, where is our boat, who is guarding it?"

"Don't worry, Dad is guarding. This time, Dad brought you a lot of good things. Let's go home and have a look later."

"Okay. I like Dad best!"

Huo Erhuai and Yang looked at him happily, as if they couldn't get enough.

After receiving Huo Nian, the family decided to have dinner in the city before going back.

"Today, mother took us Nian'er to find a delicious restaurant for dinner. After eating, mother will take Nian'er to take a flower boat in Mochou Lake. Let's take a good swim in the lake, okay?"

Huo Nian's eyes widened, he clapped his little hands and danced happily: "Okay, I like mother the most!"

Huo Xi gave him a helpless look.

Soon Yang Fu also found them, and the family found a nice restaurant by Mochou Lake for dinner.

Sitting in the lobby on the first floor, Huo Nian wanted to eat this or that, relying on his parents to spoil him, everyone will fulfill his wish today, quite unscrupulous.

After a good meal in the restaurant, everyone was a little full, so they walked to the lake and found a flower boat to sit on.

Hired a gorgeously decorated flower boat, and the family sat on it.

Huo Nian looked here and there curiously, unable to sit still.He pulled the gauze on the flower boat and said that he would also put it on his own boat, saying it was beautiful.If it wasn't for Huo Xi's pull, Yang would have responded on the spot.

The family sat on the boat, drinking tea and eating snacks, enjoying the lake breeze and enjoying the beautiful scenery by the lake. It was very pleasant.

Mu Yan had spotted them a long time ago, the two boats were quite close just now, but they didn't find themselves.

I heard that kid pulling the little liar to say that their two-story flower boat is beautiful, and that he will take a flower boat of that height once he saves enough money.

The corner of Mu Yan's mouth raised, and he looked away.

"By the way, Mu Bin, have you decided which yamen to go to to experience the incident?"

The Imperial College is about to graduate, and several classmates who have been friends with each other on weekdays meet at Mochou Lake and ask about their whereabouts.

"Maybe go to the Ministry of Rites." Mu Yan said lightly.

"The Ministry of Rites? Do you want to go to the Ministry of Rites?"

Xu Sanbao and others were very surprised, "You are excellent in literature and martial arts. You can go to the Ministry of Rites?"

Mu Yan was silent and did not explain.

Chen Yan glanced at Mu Yan, seeing Xu Sanbao chattering, secretly gave him a hand.

"Why are you pulling me? In terms of academics, Mu Bin is better than the rest of us. There are so many departments in Beijing, why do you have to choose the leisure department of the Ministry of Rites?"

Xu Sanbao couldn't understand Chen Yan's hint, and he still talked to himself, trying to persuade Mu Yan to change his mind.

Chen Yan expressed that he was tired and didn't want to talk to him.He is clear about Mu Yan's situation, but Xu Sanbao, a star-studded person, doesn't understand.

Mu Yan didn't answer him, and smiled: "What about you, what are your plans?"

Xu Sanbao then said, "My father wants me to go to the household department."

Chen Yan said, "I might go to the Ministry of Officials." Chen Xi said he wanted to go to the Ministry of War.Of the few people present, only Mu Yan wanted to go to the Ministry of Rites.

Everyone knows that the Ministry of Rites is an embarrassing department. It presides over affairs such as sacrifices, ceremonies, education, and reception of foreign guests... They all look very tall, but they rarely involve important government affairs such as personnel, military affairs, and economics.

Its status is not low, but it is far away from the core of power. It is a relatively marginalized department, and its actual administrative power is also limited.

For Mu Yan's choice, some understand, some don't.

Xi Ba returned to the mansion, Li Yi and Kan Er asked with some puzzlement: "Master, we don't have to go to the Ministry of Rites, do we?"

The corner of Mu Yan's mouth sneered: "I want to go to the Ministry of War. Do you think the higher-ups can let me go? I'm afraid the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the Ministry of Punishment will also be dismissed. However, if your young master wants to go to the Ministry of Industry, I'm afraid it will be the Ministry of Industry. I can go."

After hearing this, Li Yi and Kan Er's eyes darkened, and they gave the young master a distressed look.
