Tomb Raiders: Beginning Qinglong Bloodline

Chapter 286 287 Huo family, Xie family.

Beijing.

Nine families of the Huo family.

"Xiuxiu, grandma has already chosen the cheongsam for you, why did you come back from buying so many clothes?"

When Huo Xiangu was looking for Huo Xiuxiu, she was a little unhappy when she saw her returning with the newly bought clothes, her face was long and gloomy.

"Grandma, I want to buy some more clothes!"

"By the way, grandma, what kind of clothes did you choose for me?"

Huo Xiuxiu actually doesn't like cheongsam very much, but in order not to make grandma angry, she still pretended to be very pleasantly surprised.

"I've already tailored a cheongsam for you, and I'll bring it to you when I'm done."

When Huo Xiangu heard Huo Xiuxiu's words, she smiled very satisfied.

I thought to myself: This is the woman of her Huo family. In Huo Xiangu's heart, the female head of the Huo family should wear a stunning Chinese cheongsam.

And the character is strong and domineering!
But this girl Xiuxiu... Hey!

How wonderful it would be if Ling'er came back!

Damn it, when thinking of Huo Ling, Huo Xiangu thought of Ye Haochu, a cheap son-in-law.

It's been more than 20 years since she abducted her daughter, that girl Ling'er is real, she doesn't know how to come back to see her as a mother now!
"Ms. Huo, Changsha's fourth master is here again."

Just when Huo Xiangu was thinking about this, the housekeeper of the Huo family looked a little ugly, and hurried in to inform Changsha's Fourth Master that he had arrived.

"Xiuxiu, why didn't you finish the matter last time?"

Huo Xiangu was taken aback when she heard the words, then turned to look at Huo Xiuxiu.

"Grandma, this matter is too complicated. My fourth uncle was sued for cooperating with others to take the land, but he didn't want to listen to my suggestion to give up the land, and insisted on taking it."

Huo Xiuxiu looked embarrassed, and told Huo Xiangu everything she had negotiated with Fourth Master.

"Since he doesn't listen to your persuasion, then you go out and send him away and let him go."

"Xiuxiu, this era is not like before. We must know how to be a human being and know what we can do and what we can't do!"

Huo Xiangu waved her hand, and asked Huo Xiuxiu to dismiss her fourth uncle, as if she didn't want to see this useless nephew at all.

"What do you mean? I'm also from the Huo family. How dare you treat me like this? Are you courting death?"

At this time, Huo Laosi rushed in cursing.

"I met Mrs. Huo, my nephew is in some trouble now, please help me, otherwise I may go to jail."

Huo Lao Si didn't seem to see Huo Xiangu's gloomy face at all, and bowed to her with a smile, asking Huo Xiangu to help him.

"roll!!"

"Is this a place you just wandered into?"

"At the beginning, I said not to take that piece of land, but now it's your own business to cause trouble. Is this what the men of the Huo family are capable of? It's useless at all. They're just causing me all kinds of trouble!"

Huo Xiangu stared at Huo Laosi coldly, and directly issued the order to evict the guest.

"Old lady Huo, what do you mean? Seeing that I'm in trouble, you just give up on me as an outsider, right? We all know what the Huo family did to make a fortune, so don't force me!"

Huo Lao looked crazy all around, stared at Huo Xiangu and Huo Xiuxiu, and threatened viciously.

"Okay. You're fine! Get out, or don't blame me for cleaning up the Huo family's house!."

Huo Xiangu was so angry that her whole body trembled, she stood up abruptly, pointed at Huo Lao Si, and smiled back with anger.

"Haha, Mrs. Huo, I entrust everything to you. I hope you don't let me down. If I go in, the whole Huo family will have a hard time."

Fourth Huo laughed triumphantly, turned and walked out, he didn't care about Xiangu Huo's scolding just now.

"Bastard! Why did such a waste come out of our Huo family?!"

"It seems that after the old man retired for many years, the Huo family is getting more and more chaotic, and it's time to reorganize!"

Seeing Huo Laosi leave, Huo Xiangu's anger gradually calmed down.

"Grandma, don't be angry, be careful not to get angry."

"I think fourth uncle thinks that you can definitely help him settle this matter, that's why he's so confident."

"It's because I didn't handle Fourth Uncle well that bothered you, Grandma, I'm sorry."

Huo Xiuxiu hurriedly poured tea for Huo Xiangu to apologize, and kept blaming herself and herself.

"Hey, I can't blame you for Xiuxiu's matter. It's because I didn't teach you well. You have to remember that in the future, you must have the aura of being the leader."

"That kid Xie Yuchen was very young when he was in charge of the family. After Xie Laojiu died, there was no one to support him, but he still managed the Xie family in an orderly manner."

"Remember, don't be afraid when encountering difficulties, just be afraid that you dare not face them. Xiuxiu, you still know too little. I will teach you another lesson today..."

"Remember?"

"I remember, grandma!" Huo Xiuxiu replied with a relaxed smile.

"You…"

Huo Xiangu looked at the carefree Huo Xiuxiu with emotion and helplessness.

…………

In a hot pot restaurant.

Wu Xie, Wang Yueban and the younger brother were having dinner to celebrate their survival after the catastrophe.

At this moment, Wang Yueban found that Wu Xie was still absent-minded and preoccupied, as if he was still thinking about Qinling.

"Naive, what's the matter with you? Have a few drinks today, be happy, and don't be sad."

Wang Yueban looked at Wu Xie and reprimanded him slightly dissatisfied.

"I was thinking about Jude Kao leading us into Qinling, what is all this going to do?"

"The only thing I can think of now is that he wants to influence Third Uncle through me. After all, it seems that Third Uncle and Jude Kao were fighting at the beginning, and I was only involved."

Wu Xie pondered for a long time before expressing the confusion in his heart.

"Naive, I think that foreigner is making a deal with your third uncle. After all, they have cooperated before. Besides, your third uncle is so mysterious that no one can see through."

Wang Yueban took a sip of wine, and boldly guessed.

"Wu Xie, the target of Jude's test is not your third uncle, but yourself."

The little brother suddenly raised his head, stared at Wu Xie, and said something that shocked Wu Xie.

"For me? How is it possible? What value do I have, that Jude Kao should lead me into the ancient tomb?"

After hearing this, Wu Xie was stunned. He didn't want to believe that these old foxes did all this, and the target was actually himself.

"Maybe it's hard for you to realize your own value."

After the little brother said something, he returned to his expressionless and cold look again.

"Naive, according to my brother's speculation, you are in danger. I am even more worried that that gringo will use some tricks to deal with you!"

Wang Yueban frowned at this time, and looked at Wu Xie worriedly.

"No, we must not continue to be passive like this. We must take the initiative, otherwise we will be led away like puppets on a string."

Wu Xie suddenly revealed a firm expression, and said loudly.

"I'm going to find the third uncle. If we want to know the truth of the matter, we must find the third uncle."

Then Wu Xie brought his younger brother and Wang Yueban to Wu Sansheng's house again.

……

Wu Sansheng's home.

At this time, Wu Sansheng was hiding in the room, looking at the camera at the door, but refused to come out to meet Wu Xie and others.

"Naive, I guess your third uncle must be hiding on purpose and doesn't want to see you!"

Wang Yueban stood at the door and knocked for a long time, but there was no response, so he began to speculate on Wu Sansheng's whereabouts again.

"I have a solution!"

Wu Xie picked up the phone after finishing speaking.

"Pan Zi, hasn't my third uncle come back yet? I want you to tell my third uncle that I have to explore the ancient tomb. My friends have found a large tomb. You can ask my third uncle if you are interested. , you let third uncle come to me."

In the end, Wu Xie called Pan Zi on the spot outside Wu Sansheng's house, deliberately saying that he had found the big tomb, and wanted to trick Wu Sansheng into contemplating himself.

After Wang Yueban saw Wu Xie's strange behavior and thought of Wu Sansheng's hobbies, he gave a thumbs up and praised Xiaotian for being so smart!
"Third Master, what should I do?"

At this time, Pan Zizheng and Wu Sansheng were sitting in the house observing the situation of Wu Xie and others.

"Pan Zi, this is the kid's plan to delay the attack. He is trying to trick me out. Don't answer his phone first, let's talk about it after a while."

Wu Sansheng told Pan Zi with a smile on his face that Wu Xie was acting.

"Ok, I see!"

After hearing this, Pan Zi hung up the call from Wu Xie decisively.

……

At the same time, Xie Yuchen, the head of the Xie family, came to a theater to watch a play, and someone sang his familiar Kunqu opera.

"It's really unexpected that there are people who insist on Kunqiang here."

"Go and tell the troupe to leave your contact information. As long as they are willing to persevere, I will always support them."

Afterwards, Xie Yuchen ordered the next person to go on in an unquestionable tone.

"Boss, someone is causing trouble in our territory. We caught two people. It is said that that boy Zhai Xingyao also sought out these two people."

At this time, a member of Xie's family came to Xie Yuchen and told him carefully.

"I see, let's go back now."

After listening to the subordinate's explanation, Xie Yuchen turned around with a cold face and left.
