Chapter 490 I am not his father!
When Huo Changxian saw the man in front of him, he was pale, handsome, elegantly dressed, with a jade belt around his waist, and the word "rich" written all over his body.
But it's not the usual flamboyance of a kid from a rich family, it's kind of low-key and restrained.
Huo Changxian thought to himself, no wonder he could expand his business. With his composure alone, he couldn't go wrong.
Huo Changhe saw the sizing and scrutiny in Huo Changxian's eyes, and then the calculation, and knew that Yan Ruyu's plan was done.
Huo Changhe nodded slightly, not wanting to talk too much with Huo Changxian, and said to Yan Ruyu: "Yu'er, come over and have a meal."
"Okay," Yan Ruyu agreed firmly, then turned to Huo Changxian and said, "Young Master, please excuse me."
With the clear eviction order, if Huo Changxian doesn't leave, the price will drop a bit.
What's more, there is a shopkeeper watching here.
He had no choice but to go back to his private room first, and the shopkeeper followed him and served the food himself.
Huo Changxian took a bite of the new dish, but he didn't bother to taste it. He praised: "It's not bad, give it a reward."
The boy quickly took out the silver and handed it over. The shopkeeper smiled all over his face and held it in both hands: "Thank you, sir."
"Well done, you deserve it," Huo Changxian said, "Do you know who was in that room just now?"
"This... I don't know," the shopkeeper replied truthfully.
"I'm not from Lincheng. I'm here for the first time. Don't let people think that our Lincheng is not good because of my young master's recklessness just now." Huo Changxian raised his head and looked at him, "When you go there later, say a few good words for me. .”
"Master, look at what you said, what are you talking about? Mistakes are common, and it doesn't affect them in any way. It will never..."
"Just say it," Huo Changxian interrupted.
The shopkeeper stopped talking: "Yes, yes, I will definitely say it."
"Be careful when you say my identity, don't scare people."
"……Yes."
The shopkeeper exited, and Huo Changxian lowered his eyes: It must be said that the shopkeeper is the most suitable candidate to let Mr. Jia know his valuable status, but he cannot say it himself.
Huo Changxian was full of schemes, but Yan Ruyu was very happy.
She held two pieces of Huo Changxian's hair in her hand, and had just taken them when Huo Changxian turned away and wasn't paying attention.
Huo Changhe saw her smiling happily and asked, "Is this his hair?"
"Exactly."
Huo Changhe touched his nose and stopped talking.
Yan Ruyu put it away carefully. Seeing that he was silent, she asked, "What's wrong?"
Huo Changhe said in a low voice: "It's only when a couple gets married that they get married."
He paused: "None of us have knotted hair."
Yan Ruyu: "..."
"It's not a hair knot," Yan Ruyu wanted to laugh, but held back, "How can two hair knots be used? This is for a small test."
"test?"
"Yes," Yan Ruyu asked, "My lord, do you still remember how I was sure that you and Brother Rui were not father and son?"
Huo Changhe's eyes brightened slightly: he had completely forgotten about this.
"You mean, you also want to test Huo Changxian? Test him against whom?"
Yan Ruyu looked at him and slowly stretched out her hand: "With you."
Huo Changhe stood up from his chair in shock: "I'm not his father!"
Yan Ruyu: "..."
Now she couldn't hold it back any longer, Yan Ruyu burst into laughter and burst into tears.
Just at this moment, the shopkeeper knocked on the door outside.
Huo Changhe felt that he might have made a mistake, and even after blurting out his words, he felt something was wrong, and was very embarrassed for a moment.
He turned around and said angrily: "What's the matter!"
The shopkeeper was silent outside the door: "Sir, there is something I want to tell you."
Yan Ruyu held back her laughter. Huo Changhe took a breath and coughed twice: "Come in and talk."
When the store manager entered the private room, he saw that the atmosphere in the room was harmonious, Yan Ruyu looked as usual, and there was still an unfinished smile between her eyebrows, and she felt in a daze that she had misheard just now.
"Sir," the shopkeeper said, holding a plate of dishes, "This dish is a gift from the shop. Please try it, sir."
Huo Changhe raised his eyes to look at him, and Yan Ruyu took it: "Thank you very much, shopkeeper, but I'm just not getting any reward for your merits. What are you..."
"Look what the girl said, it's just a dish. Please don't take it to heart about what happened just now." The shopkeeper changed to the main topic, "The young master just now is the eldest son of the Lord's Mansion of Lincheng County. Because he disturbed the two I feel very sorry for you."
"The eldest son is usually gentle and polite. He is by no means a reckless person. He just made a mistake for a moment."
Yan Ruyu's face showed just the right amount of surprise: "Is he actually the eldest son of the county lord's palace? No wonder he looks extraordinary. When we first arrived in Lincheng, we heard that the lord of Yongchang County lived here, and we thought that if there was a chance, we would come here I went to visit and I didn’t expect to meet you here, it’s really a coincidence.”
When the store manager heard this, his heart dropped: "Yes, it's all fate. The young master is next door. If you two are interested, you can go and say hello."
I thought Yan Ruyu was eager to do so, but she didn't expect to hear her say: "I won't go for the time being. My young master is in poor health, and there was a little misunderstanding just now. It would be more solemn to visit another day when I have the opportunity."
Even though he said this, he could tell that it was a form of excuse.
The shopkeeper was slightly startled and didn't dare to force it.
Yan Ruyu turned around and put down the dishes, turning her back to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper understood, so he cupped his hands and said, "Take it easy, I'll take my leave."
He turned around and went out to reply to Huo Changxian.
Yan Ruyu closed the door, raised her eyebrows and said, "Sure enough, she's here."
"It's just that the method is not very good," Huo Changhe snorted, "It's like a trick used by women in the back house. They don't say anything and let the servants do it, and then they pretend to be aggrieved. It wasn't him who said it anyway."
Yan Ruyu was surprised: "Your Majesty knows the essence of it."
"Hmph, stubble means."
Yan Ruyu just took a sip of the soup and almost spit out: "Wha...what?"
Huo Changhe was a little proud: "It's what Yin Ding often said, and it was said to be from a book, but I didn't ask what book it was. This kid has been reading and listening to books with the abbot and Changxu recently, and he has gained some knowledge."
Yan Ruyu: ...up, knowledge? That's it?
Yan Ruyu silently drank a few mouthfuls of soup, suppressing the laughter in her throat.
Huo Changhe brought her some vegetables: "You just said, how to test? What to test?"
Yan Ruyu cleared her throat: "I want to use his hair and the prince's hair to test whether you are really brothers, that is, whether you are blood relatives."
Huo Changhe paused: "What? He's not..."
"Whether he is or not depends on what the head of Yongchang County says. What happened back then is very confusing, and it all depends on what she says. But who can tell, who can be sure?"
"My lord, if you think about it carefully, this matter has become a topic of conversation for many people. My mother was shocked and angry, and my father was the one who made the mistake. He has to bear and comfort others' ridicule, discussion, and speculation, as well as my mother's sadness."
"This has become a serious problem for my mother, and how about my father? So, they never mention it, let alone talk about it in detail."
"So, what happened back then has become the master of Yongchang County."
