Chapter 4
"My aunt's kindness, Zhixin appreciates it. It's just..." Huo Zhixin pretended to be weak, with a sad face, and said, "They were all chosen for me when my mother was alive..."

When Huo Zhixin said this, Mrs. Su also understood what Huo Zhixin meant. She lowered her head and glanced at the maidservants, then looked at Huo Zhixin with a worried expression on her face, and said, "My concubine understands what Missy means...but Missy As the concubine's concubine of the Hou Mansion, the maids around her should be the best. People like these people with tired hands and feet..."

"Ah!" Huo Zhixin suddenly exclaimed and interrupted Su Shi's words, looked at Su Shi with a face of surprise, and asked, "Has Aunt Su's status been raised?"

"What?" Su Shi was taken aback, why did this eldest lady suddenly ask about this matter?Huo Zhixin saw Su's dazed expression, and then secretly glanced at the brown brocade shirt exposed by the door, a sneer flashed at the corner of her mouth, and she changed into a cowardly and deceitful look: "Aunt Su, if it wasn't for her promotion Why do you call yourself a "concubine"? Although my mother passed away, I promised my aunt that I would speak kindly to my father for my aunt. But from this point of view, there is no need for me to say more..."

It was only then that the Su family realized, why did Huo Zhixin say these words?Although the Su family had lied to Huo Zhixin in the past, saying that Huo Zhixin was very important to the Hou Ye, and asked Huo Zhixin to say something nice to the Hou Ye.However, anyone with a discerning eye knows that Huo Zhixin is not favored by the Marquis, and the Su Clan only wants Huo Zhixin to humiliate herself.She, the Su family, wants to be righted, how can she count on an unfavored concubine?
"I know, Daddy doesn't like me." Huo Zhixin choked with tears, "Mother said that when I was born, the family's ancestral hall collapsed, and my father thought I was unlucky, so I listened to my mother and didn't bother my father all these years But... but my mother passed away, and my younger brother wants me to take care of my elder sister, but I am too useless, and I am not in good health, so I can't take care of my younger brother."

Huo Zhixin's tears flowed even more when she was sad, she grabbed Su Shi's sleeve and cried, "I entrusted my younger brother to your care, I said I would help you straighten..."

"Miss!" Su Shi raised her voice to silence Huo Zhixin's crying, then lowered her voice, and said softly, "It's the servant's fault, because the servant loves Lord Hou so much, and has always hoped to be with him As a couple, I can't help but say the word "concubine". It's the slaves who are not blessed, who can't share the worries for Lord Hou's birth, and it's the slaves who don't take good care of them, which makes the young master fall into the lotus pond. If the eldest lady If you want to blame, please punish the lady!"

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Su knelt in front of Huo Zhixin's bed with a determined expression on her face. If Huo Zhixin couldn't figure out why Mrs. Su did this, she would be a stick!Su Shi must have discovered her father as well.Huo Zhixin secretly gritted her teeth, tightly clenched one hand under the quilt, trying to calm down her emotions, and don't let her emotions out too much. This time, she was the one who underestimated Su's ability too much.

When Su Shi knelt down, she was also afraid for a while. Fortunately, she was with Huo Zhengting every day on weekdays. Huo Zhengting wore a scent of coriander that was unique to Huo Zhengting's study. I don't know, what if I say something wrong?Involuntarily, Su Shi took another look at Huo Zhixin and felt a little suspicious, did she do it on purpose?
Of course Huo Zhixin noticed Su Shi's gaze, but she pretended not to know, and softly called to Huo Zhengting who was about to enter the house, "Daddy?"

As soon as Ping Suhou entered the room, he saw Su's thin and pretty back kneeling in front of Huo Zhixin's bed, his originally gentle face became cold and hard again. "What are you doing again?" There was a hint of anger in these words, and Huo Zhixin immediately understood that these words were aimed at herself.

Huo Zhengting frowned slightly, walked quickly in front of Su Shi and asked Su Shi to help him up, then looked at Huo Zhixin, who was half lying on the bed with a pale face and tears in her eyes.Huo Zhengting, who originally wanted to get angry at her, forcibly suppressed his harsh tone, and instead asked in a cold tone, "Are you feeling better?"

"Thank you, dad, for your concern. It's much better now." Huo Zhixin looked flattered, and looked at Huo Zhengting with admiring eyes from time to time. , Said: "You are weak, you need to rest well."

Huo Zhixin nodded obediently, her lips pursed for a long time, the weak and helpless look in her watery red phoenix eyes made Huo Zhengting feel a burst of emotion in his heart.I can't help but ask myself, is it too negligent to this daughter?He also thought of Huo Zhixin's cowardly look when she saw her in the past, probably because she was afraid that she would hate her so she often showed her timid look.

"Recover well, and tell Aunt Su what you need." Huo Zhengting thought for a long time before adding, "You are the daughter of the Hou family, so don't think too much about it."

Su Shi stood beside Huo Zhengting, serving Huo Zhengting for so many years, if Huo Zhengting didn't even know what was going on in his mind now, then Su Shi would have gone somewhere else to cool off.Although Su Shi still had a gentle face on the surface, his gums were bleeding from biting on the inside. Huo Zhengting's daughter, whom Huo Zhengting had never looked at seriously, was now being missed again!

"That's right, just tell your maidservant what Missy needs." Su's forced smile really made Huo Zhixin feel happy.

"Yes, I remember everything my aunt said." I remember every word you said clearly and clearly.Huo Zhixin lowered her head and lowered her eyelids, looking weak and obedient
When Huo Zhengting saw Su's being so gentle and considerate, he couldn't help feeling a sense of pride in his man's heart. Who doesn't have a mess of troubles in the backyard?And how harmonious the backyard of my own home is!

Thinking of this, Huo Zhengting looked at Su Shi and Huo Zhixin with softer eyes, and Huo Zhixin accepted it as soon as she saw it, and asked a few more questions, what should I do if Su Shi finds out?As a result, Huo Zhixin's face became more docile and weak, but there was always a hint of sneer on the corner of her mouth.
