Chapter 126 Going to the Hongmen Banquet
Nanny Li who was standing at the gate of the courtyard breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Yuan Bohan was going to take Huo Zhirou to see De Ling, it was not in vain for her to stand under the sun for an hour!
The servant girl looked at Mammy Li who was standing straight. After hearing the news, her whole body relaxed, her body was a little unsteady, and she was about to fall to the ground. ?"

Nanny Li relaxed her whole body, only then did she feel that her feet were as heavy as lead, with an ugly expression on her face. She came to Yuanmen to be pampered and pampered for so many years, and today's stop reminded her of being raped when she was young in the palace. The scene of punishment, the suffering she has suffered today, must be recovered from that merchant's daughter!

Yuan Yin looked at the vicious expression in Nanny Li's eyes, and her eyes sank. If she had known that this nanny would show such an expression, she should have told her master about it in private, and kept Miss Huo from knowing. I know if this tricky slave will add fuel to the old lady's side when he goes back, if he says something bad, the master will take Miss Huo to the Hongmen banquet later!
Because she was going to Deling, Huo Zhirou went back to her room and changed clothes. When Huo Zhirou came out, she was wearing a light yellow cloud sweater, with ancient white and auspicious cloud patterns stretching across the floor. Dress, hair tied in a chic lily bun, hollowed-out cloud hairpins inserted in the lightly curled temples, and a tourmaline fragrance bead bracelet on her creamy skin, the elegant makeup makes her beautiful face look gentle After a few minutes, his eyes looked at Yuan Bohan who was waiting for her outside with affection.

"How?" Huo Zhirou asked worriedly.

Yuan Bohan looked at Huo Zhirou's makeup at this time, and nodded in satisfaction. In fact, he didn't want to hit Huo Zhirou. Yuan Bohan thought that his mother would not let him take Huo Zhirou to her place for dinner. He really regards Huo Zhirou as his future daughter-in-law, no matter how good-looking Huo Zhirou is, in his mother's heart, the only daughter-in-law is Si Rongxue, but he will not tell Huo Zhirou about this now Yes, so as not to make her feel bad.

When Huo Zhirou heard Yuan Bohan's approval, the smile on his face became even brighter.

"Let's go, let's go to Shouyuan Pavilion, where my mother lives in the courtyard." Yuan Bohan stepped forward to hold Huo Zhirou's hand.

Seeing Yuan Bohan's actions, Huo Zhirou immediately put her hand on her body.

Seeing Huo Zhirou's actions, Yuan Bohan immediately looked at her with dissatisfaction. Before Yuan Bohan could speak, he heard Huo Zhirou say embarrassedly: "I'm going out soon, if Yuanmen looks up and down What will you think of me when you hold my hand? I don't want it!"

Hearing Huo Zhirou's explanation, Yuan Bohan frowned, apart from his mother, who in Yuanmen would dare to accuse them of holding hands?But this girl is right to think about it, now his mother is dissatisfied with Huo Zhirou, if she knows that they are holding hands in public, she will probably say something ugly again.

Yuan Bohan sighed helplessly, and said to Huo Zhirou: "Okay then, let's go, it's getting late!"

Huo Zhirou nodded, and followed Yuan Bohan towards the Shouyuan Pavilion. On the way, when Yuanmen saw Huo Zhirou, Qi Qi looked at her with bright eyes, making Huo Zhirou Although Zhirou was imposing calmness on his face, his heart was throbbing.

Nanny Li returned to the Shouyuan Pavilion, and naturally added some embellishments. De Ling looked at the pale Nanny Li, and his face sank.Nanny Li is an old man she brought out from the palace. Although she is not from Yuanmen, as her personal nun, no one in Yuanmen would dare to bully her. In addition, Nanny Li also took care of Yuan Bohan when he was young. , Yuan Bohan also respected this nanny quite a bit, but he never thought that for a woman, she would be asked to stand outside for an hour to wait, such a woman who confuses her son must not be ruled out!

De Ling didn't respond to Nanny Li's words about Huo Zhirou's rights and wrongs, and said to Nanny Li with the same tone: "Mommy, go back and rest first!"

"Yes!" Nanny Li looked at De Ling's attitude and said nothing more. After serving De Ling for so many years, she naturally knew what her master thought, and she probably already had a plan in mind.

After Nanny Li left, De Ling said to the maid beside him: "Let the kitchen prepare some dishes that Han'er likes, and prepare some other dishes, and tell them that I want to entertain distinguished guests, and let them make it more grand! "

The maid heard Deling's words, and stepped back respectfully.

When Huo Zhirou and Yuan Bohan arrived at Shouyuan Pavilion, De Ling was in the process of dressing up, and when she heard the servant girl's report, she gave a faint "hmm".

In the warm jade side hall of Shouyuan Pavilion, Huo Zhirou sat on a chair, his face could not hide his nervousness, his eyes passed over this small side hall, and he saw that it was extremely luxuriously arranged, all the tables, chairs and coffee tables were expensive. It is made of heavy golden nanmu, shark bead gauze is the curtain, and there are fresh chrysanthemums inserted in the large celadon vase painted with gold. The room is burning with an elegant fragrance. What attracts Huo Zhirou's attention most is the phoenix peony not far away The double-sided embroidered rosewood screen is carefully carved by famous craftsmen on the sandalwood, depicting exquisite patterns, which looks extremely delicate.This side hall is both luxurious and reveals the master's elegant taste.

Huo Zhirou thought of the identity of Yuan Bohan's mother, who was the Royal Princess of the North Wing. Because she married Yuan Bohan's father, she broke away from the identity of the Royal Princess. She thought that she would meet a noble woman later, and she was The identity of Yuan Bohan's mother made Huo Zhirou feel uneasy.

Yuan Bohan on the side looked at the uneasy look on Huo Zhirou's face, and said comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, no matter what she said later, if it sounds good, you just listen to it; if it doesn't sound good, just pretend it's nothing." I've heard it, but trust me!"

When Huo Zhirou heard Yuan Bohan's words, she felt helpless on her face. Didn't this guy remind herself that his mother would say bad things later, which made her even more nervous?

Huo Zhirou was about to speak, when she saw a beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes walking into the side hall surrounded by maidservants. She had a beautiful face and a faint smile on her face. Han passed by, and finally landed on Huo Zhirou's body. With a flash of light in his eyes, he walked past the two of them and walked to the main seat.

When Huo Zhirou saw this beautiful woman, her eyes showed shock. This is Yuan Bohan's mother. She is so young. There is no trace of age on her face. She looks similar to Yuan Bohan. The two stood together, and the old lady in front of her seemed to be Yuan Bohan's sister.

Huo Zhirou quickly put away her surprise, and respectfully bowed to De Ling, "The little girl Huo Zhirou has seen the old lady!"

De Ling sat on the main seat, smiled slightly at Huo Zhirou, and stretched out his hand to signal: "Miss Huo, please get up!"

Huo Zhirou heard De Ling's words and stood up. At this time, De Ling looked at Huo Zhirou seriously, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart. Apart from the lowly status of the girl in front of him, this girl is not the one who is so beautiful. Why was my son so bewitched by this girl?

Although De Ling was disdainful of Huo Zhirou in front of him, the smile on his face looked so kind, "I heard from Han Er that he liked a girl, I have long wanted to see what kind of girl she is. Is Miss Huo surprised that I can grab this son's heart and ask him to bring you to my place for dinner today?"

Yuan Bohan stood quietly at the side, seeing the approachable smile on his mother's face, he couldn't help narrowing his eyes, and looked at her with some vigilance.

At this time, Huo Zhirou didn't realize that De Ling was dissatisfied with her. Hearing De Ling's words, she said with a smile: "The little girl is temporarily staying in Yuanmen. As a guest, she should visit the old lady earlier. It should be my daughter's rudeness to ask the old lady to invite my daughter now."

"It's okay, Han'er was afraid that I would eat you, so he protected you tightly, this child, I really don't know what to say about him, since he likes a girl, he should have brought you to me earlier , Why do you just hide and pinch like this, making me think that he has no woman he likes and wants to find him a wife!"

De Ling's words were very understated. In his words, he did not blame Huo Zhirou, but blamed Yuan Bohan. She always had a deep smile on her face, and gently stroked the slender and soft jade hand on her wrist The glazed emerald bracelet on the top.

When Huo Zhirou heard De Ling's words, for some reason, she felt a little uncomfortable. The words of the old lady in front of her seemed to remind herself that Yuan Bohan didn't want to tell her that she liked her. Now She is not the unmarried daughter that Yuan Bohan admits to the outside world.

Yuan Bohan, who was standing beside her, heard De Ling's hint to Huo Zhirou, his eyes turned cold, then he smiled lightly, bowed towards De Ling, and said to De Ling sincerely : "It's my son's fault! My son sees that my mother has been unwell for the past few days. In addition, a major event happened at the Yuanmen Conference. I should have brought Rou'er to see you earlier. If I delay until today, mother, don't blame her. Is it my son or not!"

De Ling looked at the son in front of him admitting his mistake, his eyes flashed coldly, Rou'er?Yuan Bohan called him so affectionately, and found so many excuses to protect this girl. Now this girl has really become his son's weakness!
The more De Ling thought about it, the more dissatisfied she became, but a loving smile appeared on her face, and she said cursingly: "Bad boy, it's not your fault that my mother is unwell? Now you have a girl you like, don't you?" Mother doesn't have a high status in your heart anymore?"

"Mother, it's my son's fault!" The smile on Yuan Bohan's face became wider, and he said to De Ling: "My son also knows that he is not filial, so he found a filial girl, don't worry, Rou'er and I We will honor you together!"

When De Ling heard Yuan Bohan's answer, the smile on her face was still very gentle, but the light in those eyes was very sharp. This son actually planned to marry this girl?Let her be the mistress of Yuanmen, hum!

De Ling's gaze shifted to Huo Zhirou's body, changed from the kindness he had shown to Huo Zhirou just now, and pierced Huo Zhirou's sharp eyes like a sharp knife.

Huo Zhirou's heart couldn't help but to be raised by the power that suddenly came towards her. Such a strong sense of oppression made her feel like retreating. When she saw Yuan Bohan for the first time, this feeling She had never experienced it before, and her fair forehead was faintly oozing with sweat, and her hands gradually clenched into fists subconsciously...
