823: Become Cannon Fodder

Become Cannon Fodder

Su Xiyin kicked him. Couldn't he talk nicely? Why was he being so aggressive? Was he deliberately finding fault? He could not be quiet even when eating a meal.0

He had not even taken a liking to a person like Third Master Jun wooing Sheng Sheng. He had his eyes above his head. Who else could he take a liking to? She was afraid that even if he searched the entire world, there was no one he would take a liking to.

"Sixth Brother's standards are really high. In that case, according to Sixth Brother, no one in the capital is worthy of Sheng Sheng?" Jiang Meiyun wiped her mouth and asked jokingly, "Then, Ning Xiao from the Ning Family, Ye Zhengxiu from the Ye Family, Gao Wenqing from the Gao Family, and He Bai from the He Family. Which one of them isn't a talented young man?"

Can't take a liking to others? How could others even take a liking to his illegitimate daughter? Raising a son with such a dubious background. Who would want a loose woman whom someone had slept with before?!

"Mother." Huo Xuanzhou happened to enter. Upon hearing this, he walked over hurriedly and pulled out a stool to sit beside Jiang Meiyun. He smiled and asked, "What are you guys talking about? It's quite lively."

Upon seeing Huo Xuanzhou shoot her a look, Ling Sheng could not help but laugh. If he had not returned, she would have forgotten that he was also part of the Huo Family!

"What can I be talking about? I'm talking about finding a youthful and talented man for your younger sister Sheng Sheng. Your Sixth Uncle's standards are high, so he doesn't fancy anyone. You know a lot of people. Introduce one to your sister." Upon seeing him pick up a bowl and start eating, Jiang Meiyun smiled helplessly.

Her son was good at everything, but he was not sensible at all. How old was he already? Why was he acting like a child?

"I don't." Huo Xuanzhou was embarrassed. Even if he knew anyone, he did not dare either. His Sixth Uncle did not even like that scumbag Jun Shiyan. Who else could he fancy?

To be honest, although he was not fond of Third Master Jun either, those men whom his mother was speaking of were not even worthy of carrying his shoes.

"All of you better eat your dinner properly. Don't talk while eating." Huo Xiao did not want to continue listening either. What was there to hear? Was he supposed to hear them say how no one wanted a woman who had given birth? That she was worthless?

They were all women themselves. How could they belittle women like that? Why was no one discriminating against men who lost their wives and were raising children alone then?

His dear granddaughter was fine. She did not need a group of gossipy women to introduce those sloppy men. Humph!

Since the Old Master had spoken, the others shut up too. Cao Yunxian and Xiao Hui coaxed the Old Master. "Father, you're right. None of them are worthy. Sheng Sheng is the eldest granddaughter of our Huo Family after all."

Huo Xiao let out a snort. "Even eating can't shut you people up!"

Ling Sheng was very obedient and had been eating silently. She took a look at the people opposite her, who each bore their own ulterior motives. She did not know if these women had given up on getting her to go on blind dates. Although they said that she was the precious eldest granddaughter of the Huo Family, who knew what they thought of her inwardly!

The meal was still fairly peaceful.

After Huo Xuanzhou finished eating, he tugged at his mother and reminded her, "Mother, no matter what my Fourth Aunt and the others want to do, don't get involved, especially when it comes to Ling Sheng."

Jiang Meiyun looked at her son. "What do you mean?"

Huo Xuanzhou was very solemn. "Anyway, just remember this. Don't get involved in the blind dates. It's not something you can interfere in."

Jiang Meiyun said, "What's wrong with arranging blind dates? I'm doing this for her own good. It's not easy for a woman to raise a child alone. Marrying a reliable and honest man is better than anything."

Huo Xuanzhou felt a little helpless. His mother was just too artless and never learned her lesson. Every time, she would be egged on by his aunties, who each harbored evil intentions, and used as cannon fodder. "Don't worry about it. Just listen to me. I'm your son, your biological son. How could I possibly harm you? Have you forgotten how you were conned by them in the past?"
