Chapter 1066 No matter what happens, go to the third palace
In the afternoon, Huo Yan had just put his child to sleep and was about to take a nap when Madam Xiang came outside again.
Huo Yan forced himself to cheer up and went downstairs to deal with Madam Xiang.
"Aunt Xiang, why are you here now?" Huo Yan asked with a smile.
This time is perfect. Who doesn’t want to rest on a summer afternoon?
Madam Xiang asked with a hint of apology:
"Yan Yan, Aunt Xiang is coming here now. Is it disturbing your rest?"
Huo Yan quickly shook his head and said:
"No, I'm just bored."
Mrs. Xiang talked about this and that, sometimes asking how Seventeen was doing, sometimes talking about how their family member Jiang Zhenjiang was doing. The topic jumped from young to old, and she just kept talking about business.
Huo Yan listened patiently and didn't push him, giving him enough face.
Madam Xiang saw that Huo Yan had a soft personality and was indeed easy to talk to. She had seen this little devil when she was eighteen or nineteen years old. She was a simple-minded person, so Madam Xiang couldn't help but run to the new building.
After talking about a lot of random things, I finally got to the point.
"Did the eldest wife come here this morning? Is there anything about making a will?"
Madam Xiang is in trouble now, so she treats the other party like her own daughter. How could she think about Xinlou at other times?
Huo Yan smiled and said, "I did mention this matter, but it's not appropriate to discuss it privately, so I didn't say much."
Huo Yan is not stupid, she would never talk about others behind their backs.
"The old man made his will yesterday, and the notary and his lawyer came to the house, but he didn't announce how the property was divided. This is really shocking. By the way, Yanyan, do you know who the old man gave the Zhuang family compound to?"
Madam Xiang could see that Huo Yan didn't want to talk about the inheritance, so she asked directly.
This old lady has been hiding her fox tail for her whole life, but now she can no longer hide it. This matter is not urgent yet, so when will it become urgent?
Huo Yan shook his head. "I don't know. The Third Master and I were not at home yesterday. No one mentioned the will to us privately, not even my father-in-law."
"I'm afraid the eldest lady knows something?" Madam Xiang asked again unwillingly.
The Third Master is in charge of the family, and his wife is now the housekeeper. Can she believe that this little goblin doesn't know anything about it?
This time, the old man really made everyone on all sides confused. They knew it was best to keep calm at this time, but they just couldn't hold it back.
If Madam Xiang had not seen the eldest wife coming to Huo Yan, she might have been able to hold on for a while, but when she learned that the eldest wife was coming, how could she not wonder what the third master's wife and the eldest master's wife had exchanged behind the scenes?
Mrs. Xiang will be happy that the eldest family and the third master's family have joined forces.
Huo Yan shook his head. "I don't know much about my sister-in-law's affairs. Everyone does things for their own benefit. Just like when you came here, some things are not said openly, so, hehe..."
Translated, what Huo Yan meant was that everyone has a scale in their heart, and only at this moment does the other party need to come over and say a few words.
But we're not stupid. Who would reveal so much from their heart? She wanted to get some information from me, and you did the same. Have you confessed much yourself?
Who doesn’t come here with a cover on?
Huo Yan certainly knew that Madam Xiang didn't believe her, but that was not something she could control.
Now that things have come to this, let the other party think whatever they want.
Madam Xiang nodded slowly. She was too impatient and her mind was not clear enough for her to run over in such a hurry.
Think about the eldest brother's wife. She doesn't have any great abilities, but she's not stupid either. Even if she knew about the inheritance, she wouldn't reveal it to this little goblin.
The eldest wife doesn’t know yet, but she has an adopted son.
Could her son find out something?
Let’s talk about Third Master. The old man relies so much on Third Master Zhuang, how could he not discuss the matter of the will with Third Master?
"Perhaps, the old man has told the third master privately, and it's hard to say what he revealed." Madam Xiang was not giving up hope.
Everyone has a way to find out information, but she doesn't. She is anxious and can only target Huo Yan.
"This is not something I can ask, Aunt Xiang. You should also know that the status of a daughter-in-law in the Zhuang family is not high. Some things can be asked, but some things are better to pretend not to know. This is good for all of us." Huo Yan responded politely and officially.
Don't offend anyone, and don't form an alliance with anyone.
Mrs. Xiang had been sitting there for more than half an hour. Huo Yan was so sleepy that he had no choice but to force himself to practice Tai Chi with the old lady.
Huo Yan thought in his heart, if you want to sit down, just sit down. If you want to ask something, I'm sorry, I really don't know.
Huo Yan yawned several times in succession, and his tired look was not fake. Madam Xiang had to get up and say goodbye.
Huo Yan sent Madam Xiang out the door, asked the servants to take Madam Xiang to the old house, and then turned around and went upstairs.
Lying on the bed, she was finally able to close her eyes. She was so sleepy.
When it's time for a nap, my head starts buzzing if I don't sleep. I didn't have the habit of taking naps when I was studying and working, but now I have to take them. Maybe I'm really not young anymore.
She is only in her twenties. I can’t believe what she will be like when she is forty or fifty.
Zhuang Zhoucheng always said that she was in poor health and would feel tired all day if she didn't sleep enough. What could she do?
She didn't want to be like this either. After two years of playing, her body became lazy.
Huo Yan was sleeping in a daze. Oh, someone came to visit again.
Fourth Miss Zhuang's disdain for Huo Yan was more obvious than that of the First Lady and Madam Xiang.
Huo Yan's feelings towards Zhuang Jinse are the same as Lan Siyun's feelings towards Ji Feifei, from liking and admiring her in the beginning to feeling sad and disappointed in the end.
Huo Yan thought she was being really nice to Aunt Zhuang, but no matter what she did, she just wasn't impressed.
After giving birth to her daughter, Huo Yan also went out with Zhuang Jinse, Shen Yuan and others for a while, and also wanted to establish a good relationship with the Zhuang family.
But after being disappointed again and again, I ended up avoiding it.
The most outrageous time that Huo Yan remembered was when she followed them in a stroller while shopping. As for why Zhuang Jinse always asked her to go with her when she went out, it was because the things she bought could be placed under the stroller and they didn't have to carry them.
After entering the mall, Zhuang Jinse and Shen Yuan were trying on clothes. Shen Yuan picked out a piece of clothing and thought it was suitable for Huo Yan. She insisted that Huo Yan try it on. If Huo Yan kept refusing, it would be very disrespectful, so she took the clothes in to try them on.
When she came out, everyone had left. Before she entered the fitting room, she pushed the stroller in front of the two of them and asked Aunt Zhuang and Shen Yuan to help her take a look.
The results came out and the car was still there.
Huo Yan was so angry that tears came out at that time. Without waiting for her to be satisfied, the baby was only a few months old and was left in a public place like this without any family members watching. What if someone took the baby away?
There are still so many people in the store!
Huo Yan was so angry that time that he never went out with Er Yuan again.
