Crossing the Passenger Sacrifice

"Mr. Jiang?!" Li Huoyue took the bamboo basket and asked, "Which Mr. Jiang?"

The second child replied: "A new friend of mine."

Li Huoyue looked at the bamboo basket.

In the small bamboo basket was a small ceramic bowl, surrounded by ice wrapped in cotton cloth.

Li Huoyue opened the lid and saw chopped green peppers on the surface?

I took out the small bowl and poked it with a spoon. It looked like semi-solid milk cake underneath.

She leaned in to smell it and asked in confusion: "Yogurt???"

The second brother was very pleased and nodded with a smile: "As expected of Huo Huo, you know all this! This is the first time for me..."

"You're talking nonsense!" Li Huoyue pointed it out on the spot, "You didn't eat enough of the yogurt that mother made for Lao Wu?"

The second brother scratched his head strategically, found a seat for himself and sat down, saying, "Try it now, before it goes bad."

"No." Li Huoyue put the bowl back. "It looks weird. You're just a new friend, and you dare to bring his things to me. Has he ever saved your life?"

The second brother actually also felt it was a bit strange. Which friend would bring things to each other's sister? But he was sure that this friend would not harm Li Huoyue.

Maybe he knew that Li Huoyue is the one who has the final say in the Li Mansion, so he came here specifically to curry favor with him.

"Your second brother has met so many people, so why are you so unsure about my ability to make friends? I'm not the third brother." The second brother said confidently, "Just give it a try, the fifth brother is in the mansion anyway."

Li Huoyue: “???????”

What do you mean the fifth brother is in the house anyway?

Li Huoyue looked at the time and said to the second brother:

"Then call Lao Wu over."

The second one: “??????????”

There is no trust left between siblings???

The second brother saw that Li Huoyue was continuing to settle the accounts, so he really took the trouble to bring the fifth brother over as well.

"Old Five is here, can we eat now?"

The second brother stared at Li Huoyue, as if he would keep staring at her if she didn't eat today.

Li Huoyue looked between the green pepper-flavored yogurt and the second one.

The second child looks gentle and polite, but he is actually very slippery. A few years ago, he was scolded by his mother because he always liked to play tricks on people.

He seems to have a good temper and is easy to make friends with, but few people can catch his eye.

Today, for the sake of a new friend named Jiang, he was willing to spend time watching his sister drink yogurt?

Could it be the person on the marriage card?

The person that the mother has tried her best to cross out is probably not a good person.

It seems that I have to avoid Lao Er in the future, so as to avoid suddenly running into his new friend and activating the bonus effect of the marriage card.

Li Huoyue called Lao Wu over and took out a spoon to serve him half a bowl.

Lao Wu took it happily and drank it all in one gulp.

Li Huoyue looked at him.

The second one also looked at him.

Two seconds later, Lao Wu let out a sharp explosion:

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

Lao Wu couldn't bear to waste the food, nor did he dare spit out the food Li Huoyue gave him in front of her. He could only swallow it in one breath, and then continued to cry.

"It's so disgusting! What kind of taste! How can you mix green pepper sauce and yogurt together! Which cook made this?! Get out of the Southland!!!!!"

Li Huoyue silently put down the spoon and pushed the bowl away.

The second brother saw Li Huoyue's behavior, but did not urge him, but changed the topic:

"Huo Huo, aren't you planning to go find Xu Jiao'er today?"

Li Huoyue is very familiar with the art of "making requests" and she knows it well.

But you have no choice but to accept the other party's topic.

Li Huoyue nodded: "Yes, isn't this what we discussed in the study this morning?"

"Then you still have to go to Prince Liang's Mansion tonight, right?"

Li Huoyue replied unhappily:

"Did you not eat enough this morning so you were daydreaming? Weren't these all discussed this morning?"

The second brother's smile seemed to be semi-permanently embedded on his face. He squinted his eyes and suggested, "Since you are so busy, why don't I help you settle the bills for this month?"

The second brother's mental arithmetic ability is simply first-rate. With his help, he can calculate all the business or expenses of the Li Mansion in less than a cup of tea, without the need to use a calculator at all.

At this point, Li Huoyue knew exactly what he was setting up, and he also smiled, "It seems like your friend still has some importance in your heart."

"Okay, you help me with the bill." Li Huoyue picked up the bowl of green pepper yogurt, "I'll drink the yogurt."

As they talked, the two exchanged positions.

I saw Lao Wu put the calculator aside, picked up the account book and started writing on it. He calculated the answer while reading the question, and the answer came out when he finished reading the question.

Li Huoyue watched with envy from the side.

After Lao Wu recovered, Li Huoyue said, "Lao Wu, go to Doctor Huo's place in a few days to help keep an eye on him. It looks like the old man is going to run away again."

Lao Wu said yes, but didn't ask why or how long he would help.

Seeing that Li Huoyue had nothing to say to him, he left quickly, probably going to his room to find dessert.

"What benefit did I give you?"

Li Huoyue took a sip and thought he would spit it out immediately, so he prepared an empty cup for himself.

Although the feeling when she put it in her mouth was a little strange, she unexpectedly liked it very much.

"Is it delicious?" The second brother took the time to look at Li Huoyue.

Li Huoyue gave a fair review: "It's very strange, not delicious, but I like it for some reason."

The second brother stopped and looked at Li Huoyue's face seriously.

I really didn't lie.

The second brother struck while the iron was hot and said:

"If you like, I..."

Li Huoyue put the bowl back. Before Lao Er finished speaking, Li Huoyue refused in advance: "No need. I don't want to have too much contact with this person."

"Why?" The second brother tilted his head slightly, observing Li Huoyue's expression, "You haven't even met him, maybe you have met him many times?"

What does it mean?

Li Huoyue analyzed this sentence. Does it mean that this person has been monitoring her?

Why is it so scary?!

Li Huoyue said: "Then give me a portrait."

If you recognize me in the future, avoid me if you can. If you can’t, pull me out and give me a beating.

"I don't have any." The second brother stopped looking at Li Huoyue and focused his eyes on the account book again, trying to calculate the accounts. "Why would I, a young master, carry another man's portrait with me at all times?"

"...That's true."

After a while, the second one had finished.

Li Huoyue also put the small porcelain bowl into a small bamboo basket and asked the second child to take it back.

The second son did not take the bamboo basket, but turned a few pages of the account book and asked:

"What does this Waizhuang do? Why have you donated so many incense money recently?"

Li Huoyue took a closer look and found that indeed, they went to donate incense oil almost every other day, and the amount was quite large.
