Chapter 82: Republican Marshal 04

Ma Lin came knocking on the door early in the morning. It turned out that Wang had a dream last night about the Bodhisattva in the temple. She wholeheartedly thought that Huo Changyao could survive this time, and she was blessed by the Bodhisattva, so she immediately decided to go to incense and asked someone to ask Jiang Rui if she wanted to go with her.
Jiang Rui made an appointment to watch the show in the afternoon. Anyway, he woke up and had nothing to do. It was better to walk outside and nodded in agreement.
Sending away Ma Lin, she returned to the room to get the hairpin on the head of the bed. Huo Changyao closed her eyes, not sure if she was asleep, Jiang Rui didn't wake him up, and went out gently.
In the morning, I went to the mountains outside the city to enjoy incense. After eating fast food in the temple, I returned to the city. The car passed by Changchun Garden. Jiang Rui and Wang talked about their appointment.
Wang only asked her to be careful and go home early.
She watched a scene with people, then went to the department store to stroll around. When she came out, she was full of rewards. Originally, those people invited her to dance at the ballroom. She declined and called a rickshaw back to the Huo Mansion.
As soon as she arrived at the door, a car stopped beside her and Huo Changyao got out of the car.
He was wearing a straight military uniform, a military cap, a belt around his waist, and shiny leather shoes under his feet. He looked cold and sharp, but his face was still less bloody.
"Brother, you also went out today, why don't you take a few more days off?" Jiang Rui said.
"It's okay." Huo Changyao glanced at the big bag she was carrying, and reached out to pick it up.
Jiang Rui embarrassedly lifted the bag, "It's just a few clothes, not heavy, I can do it myself." After finishing speaking, before Huo Changyao insisted, he went upstairs.
Huo Changyao went to see Wang in the back building.
At night, Jiang Rui washed up and went to his room.
Huo Changyao silently motioned to her to close the door, then walked to the wall opposite the bed, and opened a pair of calligraphy hanging there, only to see a narrow passage appeared on the wall, and behind the passage was another room.
Jiang Rui's eyes widened in surprise, "This is?"
"The sixth man brought someone to dig today. If you feel wronged, you will live here for a while."
Jiang Rui walked through the passage. This room was also very spacious, with a bed, sofa, and bookshelf. He was probably afraid that the lights would be seen outside at night. There were several layers of black curtains on the windows.
She looked around and nodded in satisfaction, "I think it's pretty good here. By the way, brother, can I bring the phonograph in my room?"
"I'll go like a while." Huo Changyao said.
This night, both of them finally slept peacefully.
Jiang Rui had washed in his room at the beginning, and then went to sleep in the room next to Huo Changyao. Later, he found it troublesome to walk back and forth. There was a bathroom in that room, and he simply moved the bathing utensils.
The servant who cleaned the building had already been ordered by Huo Changyao, and even if he found something strange, he didn't say anything. Wang's people stared at him for a while, and when they saw that they had been sleeping in the same room, they gradually stopped staring.
However, for fear that she would make a temporary comeback, Jiang Rui didn't move away for the time being.
For a while, Huo Changyao has been out early and returning late, sometimes staying overnight and not showing up for a few days. Xu Hansheng also came and went in a hurry. His always gentle face was rarely serious. He told her several times that she must be followed when going out.
Jiang Rui guessed that they were about to fight back, after all, Huo Changyao didn't seem to be a boring person.
School hasn't started yet, and she is just going out for fun. Since the outside is not very stable, she simply won't go out.
After about ten days, the secret threat was finally uprooted. From Huo Changyao's injury to the present, Xu Hansheng rarely relaxed and decided to go back to the Huo Mansion for dinner with him.
Unlike Pan Susu, he moved out of the Huo family after joining the army, and only occasionally went back.
After passing by a shop, he suddenly stopped, got out of the car and entered the shop. He came out after a while. He raised the two small pink boxes in his hand to Huo Changyao and smiled: "I haven't seen Xiao Qi for a long time, buy two for her. Lipstick."
"She likes this?" Huo Changyao glanced at the gadget in his hand.
Xu Hansheng put the lipstick in his jacket pocket, "Girls don't all like these." Then he joked: "Big brother never gave Xiaoqi a gift? Be careful she doesn't wait to see you. Remember when she was young, she avoided you when she saw you , I bought her candy many times before I managed to let her run after me."
Huo Changyao thought about it and said, "She and her second child are also very good."
Xu Hansheng glanced at his expression and made sure that he was just talking casually, and then said, "Yes, the second brother is handsome and can talk. The little girl likes him the most."
Huo Changyao nodded, and then said to the driver, "Go back."
When he talked about the sixth child, he realized that he did not seem to have given Seven Sister any gifts. His elder brother was unqualified, and she was wronged by the recent matter. Although it could not be resolved for a while, he should at least buy something as a compensation.
He entered the shop where Xu Hansheng bought lipstick just now, and was stumped by rows of lipstick, perfume, vanishing cream, and pearl powder.
The clerk stood behind the counter and looked at the handsome young officer in front of him. He didn't dare to urge him. He only thought in his heart, I don't know which lucky lady can get his favor?
Huo Changyao paused for a few seconds, then stretched out his finger.
"Sir, do you want all of these?" The clerk was surprised, seeing him nodding, and immediately said diligently: "Our store can help you pack it into a gift box for free. I wonder what color box you want?"
Huo Changyao paused again and asked, "What color do young girls like?"
The clerk said: "It's usually pink, but some girls like yellow, green and blue."
Thinking of how she seemed to wear goose yellow clothes several times, Huo Changyao said: "Yellow."
"Okay sir, please wait a moment." The clerk packed quickly and tied a bow on the box. When he was about to pass it over, he suddenly asked: "Would you like to tie a rose to the box? The rose represents romantic love, and the lady will be very happy to receive it."
She asked one more question purely for the sake of good service, but she didn't expect that after asking this sentence, the young officer's original serious face became more serious, and after refusing to ask the price, she left the money and left.
When he walked away, the clerk patted his chest, but smiled again when he saw the coin in his hand. Although the guest looked cold and could not speak, he was generous in his hands, and the tip left was worth her wages for several days.
When Huo Changyao returned to the car, Xu Hansheng looked at the big box in his hand and said speechlessly: "Brother, you are not kind, let's give gifts together. You gave me such a grand ceremony, don't you make me shabby?"
Huo Changyao wasn't actually trying to compare Xu Hansheng, he just couldn't choose what to give away, so he just gave it all.
He said: "Seven Sisters will not despise you."
"That's true," Xu Hansheng smiled, "I am her favorite-at least the second favorite sixth brother."
"Who is the first?" Huo Changyao asked casually.
Xu Hansheng smiled: "Then I don't know, we don't understand the little girl's mind."
Huo Changyao didn't care either.
When he arrived at the Huo Mansion, Xu Hansheng gave the lipstick out first. Jiang Rui thanked him in surprise. After unscrewing it, he glanced at the color and was even more happy, "I bought it this time, thank you Brother Six!"
Xu Hansheng smiled helplessly, remembering that she also gave her lipstick last time, but after receiving it, she said that it was used by a mature lady. He looked at it for a long time and didn't see any difference.
"I just mean it, there is a bigger one waiting for you, Brother."
Jiang Rui immediately turned his head and looked at Huo Changyao with bright eyes, "What good day is today? I remember it wasn't my birthday."
Huo Changyao handed the gift box over and said, "I have a birthday."
"Thank you, brother!" Jiang Rui held the big box joyfully and began to tear it apart in the living room.
The other two sat next to her, looking forward to her for a while, cheering for a while, and they felt more satisfied than receiving gifts from others.
The three of them will go to dinner after she finishes the present. Wang has been a vegetarian for a long time, and has not eaten with them since he moved to the back.
Although there were no elders at the dinner table, Huo Changyao was the town. No one had ever spoken before. Even if Xu Hansheng spoke to his seventh sister, she would not dare to respond.
Now that the situation has changed, the three of them can be regarded as a group. With a common secret, there is a common topic. Xu Hansheng and Jiang Rui said a few words from time to time. Not only did Huo Changyao not stop him, he sometimes participated in it.
After eating, he sat for a while, and Xu Hansheng was about to leave.
Jiang Rui said: "It's so late, don't you stay, Brother Six?"
"No, I can sleep comfortably in my nest."
Jiang Rui suddenly said mysteriously: "Brother Six, did you hide a Liusao for me outside?"
"What nonsense, children, go to bed, I'm leaving." Xu Hansheng flicked her forehead.
"Pain..." Jiang Rui covered his forehead, and said to his back: "There must be, you are angry into anger!"
Xu Hansheng didn't turn his head back, but waved his hand with his back to the side.
Huo Changyao happened to answer the call, and when he came back to see Jiang Rui muttering, he asked, "What?"
"It's nothing, big brother, I'm upstairs." She said as she ran upstairs, she disappeared around the corner in a blink of an eye.
If there were no chat scenes with the previous three people, Huo Changyao still didn't think there was anything, but with the previous enthusiasm, seeing her and running away after a word with herself, he felt a difference.
He couldn't help but think again that his elder brother is indeed incompetent. Even the sixth child knows that he always cares about the seventh sister. It is the first time he has given her a gift for so many years. No wonder she is not close to him.
