Chapter 53
"You didn't tell me there was white cake, you knew I liked it, but you didn't tell me..." Cheng Zhou complained.
"Blame me, I didn't think about it before," Huo Yueze patted his forehead and coaxed for a while in a low voice.
He said patiently: "Zhouzhou, those white cakes are considered expensive items, I can't buy too much at one time, and I can't buy too often in the future."
In Chang'an City, Huo Yueze had to keep a low profile all the time, he didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.
Cheng Zhou knew what he meant, "It's okay, we just buy something to satisfy our hunger once in a while."
Huo Yueze smiled, took him to visit his room, and specially turned out some old photos that were yellowish, with the cub on the left and Cheng Zhou on the right, with gentle eyebrows and eyes.
"Look, this picture was taken when I was three years old, how about it? Can you recognize me?" Huo Yueze said.
Cheng Zhou shook his head, his voice was a little excited, "I can't recognize it, the photo is a bit blurry, is this little wax gourd head yours?"
Huo Yueze laughed and said, "Yes, what little winter melon head, don't I grow quite tall now?"
When it comes to height, Cheng Zhou said without thinking, "When I get home, I will draw a line on the wall for you to measure your height, and I will measure it every other week in the future."
Logically speaking, the special energy he fed should also have a starting point, right? Among other things, the improvement of physical fitness alone should make Huo Yueze's size even bigger.
Thinking of this, Cheng Zhou felt a little resentful. Huo Yueze was already taller than him, but he still had to work hard to feed this man with good food. Why did he always feel that he was at a disadvantage?
Before Huo Yueze could ask, there was a sound of opening the door outside, "Zhouzhou, you watch Mingyu here first, I'll go out and have a look."
Cheng Zhou nodded, and continued flipping through the photos with the little boy in his arms.
"Third brother, why are you back? Didn't you say you moved out?"
Huo Yueling frowned, took out the white floral fabric in the satchel, and gestured happily on her body, looking heartless.
"Brother asked you to watch Mingyu, but you just went out to play by yourself?" Huo Yueze suppressed his anger and asked.
Huo Yueling was in a good mood, and she didn't speak properly, "How can it be? I saw Mingyu fell asleep, so I went out for a while, besides, haven't I come back?"
Since Cheng Zhou and the boy were in the back room, Huo Yueze endured it, "How did you get the money for the fabric?"
It's impossible for his elder brother to give this girl too much pocket money.
"Third Brother, Yu Jiajia gave it to me. I didn't spend any money." Huo Yueling said.
"Yu Jiajia? Who is this?" The name sounded quite familiar.
Huo Yueling leaned forward recklessly, "Third brother, don't you remember her? She is the girl who chased after you in high school, who haunted you every day, did you forget?"
When she was in high school, Yu Jiajia looked down on her, and her posture was so lofty.
It's a pity that the goddess is interested, King Xiang has no dreams, and her third brother has never paid attention to Yu Jiajia from the beginning to the end, so Huo Yueling is relieved.
Huo Yueze remembered, and said irritably, "Didn't she move to the next provincial capital?"
As early as two years ago, with the job transfer of Yu Jiajia's parents, they moved their family to the next provincial capital.
"She works in the Railway Bureau. I heard that she has transferred her job back to Chang'an City. If you ask me, she definitely hasn't given up on you yet." Huo Yueling said with a grin.
She took things from others, so she naturally had to say good things to them, "Third brother, do you want to consider talking to her? Their family conditions are so good——"
"Who are you talking about?" Cheng Zhou only heard the second half of the conversation, and walked over with doubts in his eyes, leading the little boy.
Huo Yueze covered his little nephew's eyes with his hand, and secretly winked at Cheng Zhou, trying to divert his attention, so that Cheng Zhou wouldn't be unhappy again.
Cheng Zhou was stunned for a moment, understood, and immediately mobilized his mental power, blurring Huo Yueling's memory of his details in the blink of an eye.
"Zhouzhou, are you dizzy?" Huo Yueze helped him in time.
"No, I'm fine." Cheng Zhou waved his hand easily.
He is now more and more comfortable with the use of mental power, perhaps because he used it too frequently during this period, which indirectly caused his mental power to become stronger and stronger, which is barely an unexpected gain.
"Third brother, did you hear what I just said?" Huo Yueling shook her head, as if she didn't forget to continue to say good things to Yu Jiajia.
"You'd better shut up," Huo Yueze stared at her, not wanting her to mention Yu Jiajia's affairs again, "I treat you as my younger sister now, it's for the sake of my childhood, if you continue to play tricks, Don't blame me for being ruthless with you."
Cheng Zhou was a little puzzled, "What's wrong with you two? Did you quarrel?"
Huo Yueling was a little annoyed by what was said, and without thinking about it, she yelled at Cheng Zhou: "Can you take care of our own family's affairs? What kind of onion are you? Get out of our house as soon as possible—"
Hearing this, Huo Yueze only felt angry rising up, "Lingling, don't force me to teach you a lesson, and apologize to me."
The baby he loved so much in the palm of his hand, it was too late to pet him, and he was pointed at his nose and scolded like that. Since his little nephew was by his side, he tried his best not to make a move.
Cheng Zhou was inexplicably yelled at by her, feeling aggrieved in his heart, cursing back unceremoniously: "Which onion do you think you are? The onion is better than you, let me tell you, I have to stay here tonight , don’t leave, I’m mad at you.”
He was not a soft bun to swallow his anger, of course he had to scold him back if he was scolded, even if the other party was Huo Yueze's younger sister, he would not be willing to suffer this.

"Little uncle." The little brat shrank a little from fright.
"It's okay, it's okay, little aunt is not sensible, your uncle and I are teaching people." Cheng Zhou coaxed and said deliberately, and in the end he didn't forget to give Huo Yueling a contemptuous look, determined to fight her to the end.
Huo Yueling stared at him angrily, "You, you—"
Huo Yueze was amused by Cheng Zhou, and said: "Is what he said wrong? If you are angry in your heart, then come at me and lose your temper at other people for no reason. Is that what mom taught you before? "
Huo Yueling kept silent, and the air was a little stagnant for a while.
"Lingling, open the door, why is it locked inside?" Brother Huo's voice came from outside the house.
Cheng Zhou hurriedly went to open the door, only children who can cry can eat sweets, he pretended to be wronged in a low voice, "Brother, I was scolded by that damn girl Lingling, she told me to get out..."
A posture of kicking the nose first and complaining to the face!
"..." Huo Yuedong unconsciously twitched the corners of his mouth, you don't look like a wronged person, but rather a troublemaker who deliberately complained.
When brother Huo and sister-in-law Huo figured out the ins and outs, Cheng Zhou jumped out confidently and said, "Brother, you have to teach her a lesson, otherwise I won't be able to swallow this breath."
Brother Huo was a little bit worried again, the little bastard, he was more cheerful than anyone else, and he complained one sentence after another, and he refused to suffer at all.
"What's the rush? My elder brother will definitely help you." Huo Yueze held down Cheng Zhou who was jumping, and looked at his elder brother with meaningful eyes.
Huo Yuedong: "..."
One and two are debt collectors, you don't protect yourself, but you want him to protect your weaknesses, right?
Fang Xiaoting smiled, and asked first: "Lingling, tell me first, where did you get the fabric?"
Huo Yueling hesitated, "It was given by someone else. I, I don't have any money in my hand. It's not like you don't know. What nonsense are you talking about?"
"How do you talk? This is your sister-in-law, no matter how big or small, stand up straight for me." Huo Yuedong scolded.
Huo Yueling was obviously afraid of him, she stood upright, not daring to talk back to him.
"Brother, I really didn't spend money recklessly, it was given to me by Yu Jiajia, you may not remember her, she was the girl who would chase after my third brother in high school—"
Huo Yueze covered his face silently, while Cheng Zhou puffed his cheeks and pinched his lower back fiercely behind his back. It was obvious that the little vinegar jar became a fat puffer fish again.
"Okay, okay, don't talk about it." Brother Huo interrupted her in time, glanced at Cheng Zhou's secret movements, held back a smile and coughed twice, "For no reason, why did they give you something?"
"We play well together. Her family's conditions are good. She doesn't care about this fabric at all. She'll give it to me as soon as she's happy, can't she?" Huo Yueling made up casually.
Fang Xiaoting didn't believe her nonsense. I'm afraid that Yu Jiajia was a drunkard who didn't want to drink, and most likely came for Yue Ze.
"Lingling, return this fabric," Fang Xiaoting said, pulling Huo Yueling's satchel over.
"Don't touch my bag." Huo Yueling suddenly raised her voice, rushed up and snatched her bag.
Maybe because she felt that she was making a big fuss, she smiled dryly and explained: "I just don't like others looking through my things."
"Let go, I have to see what's inside today?" Brother Huo said.
"Brother, do you have the nerve to look through the things in the girl's house?" Huo Yueling deliberately embarrassed him, trying to dispel his thoughts.
Brother Huo laughed angrily, "I'm embarrassed to turn it over, but I'll let your sister-in-law turn it over, okay?"
Fang Xiaoting didn't love her, she just pulled the satchel and looked inside, and suddenly found a large stack of bills, at least a hundred dollars.
"Where did you get the money?" Brother Huo's face was completely darkened, "Tingting, go to my room and see if the money I kept at the bottom of the box is still there?"
Huo Yueling hurriedly stopped her, with flustered eyes visible to the naked eye, and hastily explained: "Brother, I didn't touch your money, this, this was given to me by Gao Yuan, and the two of us are talking about someone, this is the pocket money he gave me. "
"Yes, it's the pocket money he gave me." Huo Yueling repeated it again, clasping her hands tightly as if to convince herself.
"I just went to Gao Yuan's house before, why didn't I hear him say that he gave you so much pocket money?" Huo Yueze said quietly.
"That's right, I didn't hear Gao Yuan talk about it." Cheng Zhou nodded in agreement, suddenly he lost his mind, and didn't want to talk to this stupid and bad sister anymore.
He also didn't want to continue listening, seeing is not seeing, anyway, Big Brother Huo would definitely not easily spare this sister with dirty hands and feet.
"Brother, Huo Yueze and I will leave first, we have other things to do." Cheng Zhou raised his foot and kicked Huo Yueze's leg, signaling him to leave.
Fang Xiaoting asked to stay: "Why did you leave so soon? It's almost time for dinner, so just stay and have a meal with us."
My sister-in-law is such an annoying troublemaker, she doesn't even know what to say.
Huo Yuedong also said: "Don't leave in a hurry, Zhou Zhou, you haven't tasted your sister-in-law's skills yet, so just stay and try this time."
