After I Married the Disabled War God As My Concubine - Chapter 217
The meal was meant to be a reunion family feast, but it was rushed and no one enjoyed themselves.
The whole banquet ended abruptly.
After the banquet, Huo Yuyan called Huo Wujiu to the inner room behind the banquet hall, saying that he had something to tell him.
When someone led Huo Wujiu there, his expression was still a bit unpleasant.
Huo Yuyan captured all of these at the corner of his eye. A plot formulated in his mind, but he didn’t bat an eyelid.
“Why are you still so unhappy?” He was originally sitting on the couch drinking tea, and when he saw Huo Wujiu enter, he put down his tea cup and stood up to welcome him.
Huo Wujiu waved his hand for him to sit back, walked forward and flipped the hem of his robe, then sat down opposite him.
“He’s too unruly.” He frowned, looking a little irritable. “Blame me for spoiling him.”
Huo Wujiu has said something similar to him before. However, at that time, he was smitten and was all too glad to do so. Jingwang said whatever he wanted, and he indulged him.
But now…
Huo Yuyan knew that if he guessed correctly, the novelty that Huo Wujiu found had already passed.
Jingwang was so conceited that he dared to say at the banquet that he seduced someone. Didn’t he himself do so? He even tied his entire life and wealth to a general of an enemy state. Why? Did he think that Huo Wujiu could protect him for the rest of his life?
Huo Yuyan had a grasp of everything in his mind.
He laughed and kindly said with a sprinkle of persuasion, “But isn’t it you who spoiled him? However, it’s not a big deal. Except for speaking presumptuously, he hasn’t done anything wrong.”
Huo Wujiu frowned.
“He’s annoying as hell,” he whispered.
Huo Yuyan smiled and reasoned with him, “Back then, wasn’t it you who took him into your side?”
“At that time, he’s quite a novelty, but now he’s gone stale.” Huo Wujiu frowned. “But after such a long time, why hasn’t he learned to behave? No matter what, he’s also from Southern Jing, so it was fine for him to be a bit presumptuous at first. But for him to be so reckless all the time, it’s nothing but trouble.”
As he said that, he picked up the tea on the table and drank it, looking at Huo Yuyan with a puzzled expression.
“Whenever he’s with me in private, he’s been very obedient.” He said, “If it weren’t for that, I wouldn’t have taken him in the first place. But how come every time he sees you, he looks for trouble?”
When Huo Yuyan heard this, how could he not fan the flames?
He lowered his eyes and smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly.
“What’s wrong with that?” he answered. “That’s just how he is in front of you. How can you know what he looks like behind your back?”
At this point, he seemed to have thought of something and frowned a little worriedly.
“If that’s the case, he must be a very shrewd man,” he insinuated, “Think about it, he presents several faces in front of you alone, so who knows what he’s thinking in the bottom of his heart?”
After those lines, he looked at Huo Wujiu with concern.
“It’s not that I want to interfere in your family affairs.” He said, “However, the back house is often the place that is most prone to chaos. Jingwang isn’t a good person, and he will definitely cause trouble behind your back in the future. Not to mention, he is a man, and your relationship will not last long. Sooner or later, you will have a wife and children. If you let him make trouble at that time, something major will happen. ”
He had been dying to say these for a long time, so saying them now was quite smooth. After all, he knew if these words were said when Huo Wujiu was smitten, it would have just been wind in his ears; but if there were cracks in the relationship between them, they would serve as hot oil fueling the flames.
As a matter of fact, Huo Wujiu’s frown deepened.
“… It’s really a hassle,” he muttered, “Then Elder Brother, what should I do?”
Huo Yuyan fell silent for a moment, then whispered.
“Although these words shouldn’t be said, it is better to get rid of such a person earlier,” he suggested.
Huo Wujiu gave it a thought.
“Forget it.” He said, “After all, he’s a person I shared the same bed and the same pillow with. At the end of the day, I can’t just leave him to sink or swim. From now on, I’ll give him the cold shoulder and just keep him as an extra mouth to feed in the backyard. ”
Huo Yuyan made no response.
He had always been vengeful and his intention was to kill Jingwang. But although Huo Wujiu was tired of him, he still hadn’t gone so far as to abandon him. This being the case, his goal was still not achieved.
However…the future is long, right?
He thought so, then he heard Huo Wujiu speak again.
“However, I’m getting older now, and my backyard can’t really be without someone.” He said, “In the next few days, can Elder Brother help me find someone? The most important thing is to find a girl of the right age in Lin’an, so help me pick one that is similar to him.”
Huo Yuyan was stunned.
…Sure enough. A young man who had enjoyed the joys of the flesh threw his current fling and immediately wanted to replace him with another one.
“Of course, that’s not a difficult task.” He laughed. “However, you have to control the one in your backyard. Don’t let him scare the lady away right after she enters the house.”
Huo Wujiu scowled.
“How troublesome,” he said.
“Forget it. It just so happens that he wanted to go to Suzhou for fun two days ago. I’ll send him away and wait until the wedding is finalized here, then let him come back,” Huo Wujiu frowned and said casually.
“This…” Huo Yuyan looked at him.
Huo Wujiu continued, “It’s best if he doesn’t come back. I’ll send someone to buy him a mansion, send a few people to keep an eye on him, and raise him in that mansion in the future.”
It seemed that he really lost interest in him and wanted to lock him up in a mansion.
This gave Huo Yuyan some thoughts.
He looked at Huo Wujiu for a moment, then laughed.
Why bother buying him a mansion? He could help Huo Wujiu get rid of him and save him a fortune in buying a mansion.
With this in mind, Huo Yuyan warmly spoke.
“If that’s the case, it’s naturally best,” he smirked.
