Xiao Yi didn't know what version of the sermon he heard, but there must be something wrong: "Of course I didn't do it voluntarily. I never agreed at all. Huo Tao got engaged to me so that he could torture me in the future. This is what he did to me."
There is no punishment for resignedly accepting your fate.”
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Huo looked at Huo Yuncheng with disappointment: "You kid, you actually helped those guys hide me!"
"How did I know that my second uncle would lie to you?" Huo Yuncheng said coolly, feeling very innocent.
Grandpa Huo thought about it and forgave him this time. He turned to Xiao Yi and said, "Don't worry, I will give you justice in this matter. No one can get away with it."
"Thank you, Grandpa Huo." Xiao Yi could see that he was sincere in his assurance.
Grandpa Huo glanced at Xiaoyi. When facing him, this little girl could act naturally and neither humble nor arrogant. It was quite good. Her eyes were straight and not impetuous.
It is normal for A Tao not to be worthy of such a good little girl: "Little girl, if you are free in the future, you are welcome to visit me as a guest in the future. Can you play chess?"
Xiaoyi shook his head.
"Is the handwriting good?"
"She doesn't know how to play piano, chess, calligraphy or painting. She's still a college student and majoring in fashion design. Grandpa, please don't embarrass her. How about I play chess with you?" Huo Yuncheng answered for her, clearly suspected of protecting her shortcomings.
"Okay! Girl, I'm a little thirsty. Go ask Auntie to pour some herbal tea." Grandpa Huo took out the chessboard and put it on the coffee table and said to Xiao Yi.
Watching Xiao Yi leave, Huo Yuncheng asked while playing chess: "Grandpa, why did you send her away?"
"Then answer me a question first. Why are you working so hard on this matter, even if you don't hesitate to offend your second uncle?" I had heard that Yuncheng was very kind to the second daughter of the Gu family. At that time, I just thought it was a rumor. His
How could the cold grandson be nice to his cheating partner's sister? That's not like him. He tried it deliberately today, and it was true.
Usually he wants Yuncheng to play chess with him, which is difficult to achieve. Yuncheng is good at chess, but he is always too lazy to coax him, because it is very difficult for him to lose to his grandfather.
It's a difficult thing, but every time he loses chess, Grandpa Huo will be depressed for a while.
Today I actually offered to play chess with him, which is so strange.
"Because I like her, are you satisfied?" Instead of making excuses, it's better to tell the truth. His grandfather is an old fox, and telling lies is in vain.
After hearing this, Grandpa Huo had mixed feelings: "This little girl is very good, and the marriage between the two families can continue. But after all, she and A Tao were almost engaged. I'm afraid that your second uncle will be unhappy and cause stumbling blocks for you."
"What if I give up all the business benefits from the engagement to my second uncle?" He didn't want any of it.
Grandpa Huo smiled after hearing this: "You are really willing to give up. Then your second uncle will laugh from ear to ear. Aren't you worried?"
Although Huo's Group is powerful, most of the power is in the hands of Dafang. Second Fang doesn't have many shares, and the performance of the company and hotel he invested in is mediocre. Uncle Huo has always wanted to succeed, and he really wants to be on an equal footing with Father Huo.
It's a good opportunity.
"The cake is big enough, but whether you can eat it or not depends on Uncle Huo's ability." He is only responsible for giving Uncle Huo this opportunity, but the Gu family is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Experience and strategy are needed in the mall. Can it be done?
To get big benefits from it depends on whether the second uncle has the ability.
"Cunning! Then I'll wait to drink your engagement wine." Like when he was young, he liked this child.
"Grandpa is welcome to visit in three days."
"You're so cunning, I'm afraid you even hid it from your father!" He cut first and then played, his movements were really fast.
"So grandpa, please keep it a secret for us for now!" Huo Yuncheng said.
"what is the benefit?"
"Let you hold your great-grandson as soon as possible."
"My mouth is very strict." For the sake of my dear great-grandson, let's hide it from his sons for now! But it's only three days to rush, so he should pick out the gifts for his grandson-in-law as soon as possible.
"Then dad..." Huo Yuncheng was very cunning.
"Afraid of being beaten? I'll tell him for you." The eldest son obeyed his words.
"Thank you, grandpa." There is a saying that to catch the thief first, catch the king. It seems to be very reasonable.
When Xiao Yi came in, Grandpa Huo waved to her with a smile, and the more he looked at her, the more he liked her: "Come here, granddaughter-in-law, come to grandpa."
Xiaoyi glanced at Huo Yuncheng and saw him nodding slightly. Xiaoyi walked over and called grandpa.
Grandpa Huo patted her hand and said: "You came in a hurry today, so I didn't prepare a meeting gift. When you get engaged, I will make up for it together. Let's have dinner at home at noon!"
"Okay! Anyway, I don't have to go to the company today." He was avoiding his second uncle and didn't dare to go to the company. Grandpa approved Xiaoyi, which was like a reassurance for him, because grandpa has a high position in the family.
The nanny heard the old man smiling happily. He hesitated and walked to the door and said to him: "The second young master and the second young mistress are here and want to see you. I saw that you were waiting for guests, so I asked them to wait in the living room."
Grandpa Huo's eyes were all for his grandson's daughter-in-law. Where did those two people come from and where are they going back? He didn't have time to see them, so he said: "I'm busy and asked them to go back. I don't want to see them now. It's useless for anyone to ask for mercy."
."
"Yes..." The nanny nodded and went over to inform.
After Grandpa Huo finished his instructions, he said angrily: "You dare to lie to me! Do you think I am an old fool? You are an insincere guy."
Grandpa Huo was very angry, and the consequences were serious.
Uncle Huo and Aunt Huo came to the old man for help tremblingly, but they were shocked before they even saw him.
Grandpa Huo loves his younger son very much, but his grandchildren like Huo Yuncheng more.
After hearing what the nanny said, Uncle Huo's face turned ugly: "Why doesn't my dad see me? Did someone say something to him? Is it Yuncheng?"
The nanny did not dare to discuss or speculate on the affairs of the old man's family in private and only said: "The old man is very angry. Second Young Master, you and the young mistress should go back first! Otherwise, the old man will be even more angry when he sees you later."
"But I just heard laughter."
"Oh, we have a visitor at home today."
"who is it?"
"I don't know. If there's nothing else, I'll go do some work first." The nanny lowered her head and walked to the kitchen without saying anything else.
Seeing her walking towards the kitchen, Aunt Huo chased after the nanny and asked the nanny: "Are the guests going to eat at home? Dad likes to eat the pumpkin I cook. Do you have pumpkin at home? I will cook it for him. Dad will be happy."
The nanny looked at her embarrassedly: "Yes, yes, but let's wait for another day! I'm afraid the old man will be unhappy."
"How could it be?" After speaking, Aunt Huo rolled up her sleeves and followed the nanny into the kitchen.
Uncle Huo was a little afraid that his father would lose his temper, so he didn't dare to stay. Seeing that his wife was staying, he asked her to try to persuade his father, but he left first.
During the meal, as soon as everyone sat down, Aunt Huo came over with the prepared dishes, lowered her head and put it in front of Grandpa Huo: "Dad, I burned pumpkin for you."
Grandpa Huo looked at her expressionlessly: "Why are you here? Didn't I ask you to go back?"
Aunt Huo had a good temper and was not angry at being said like this. She smiled and sat down next to him: "I saw that there are pumpkins at home, so I wanted to make you a dish."
"Sit down!" After Grandpa Huo finished speaking, he looked at Xiao Yi: "Little girl, eat more, let's see how thin you are."
Only then did Second Aunt Huo realize that the girl named Gu Xiaoyi was at home, with Huo Yuncheng sitting next to her. It seemed that Huo Yuncheng must have brought her to the family, and she suddenly felt bad!
Everyone was eating, and she couldn't say anything. She didn't know how to taste the meal. After finally finishing the meal, she said to Xiao Yi: "Xiao Yi! Auntie happened to have something to do with you. Let's go outside and talk."
Bar!"
Grandpa Huo said with sharp ears: "If you have anything to say, tell me here."
"Dad, I want to talk to her about Atao." After Aunt Huo finished speaking, seeing that Grandpa Huo had no objection, she looked at Xiaoyi and begged: "I know you are a kind-hearted child. You forgave him last time.
Can you forgive him this time? I will give you 10 million as compensation."
Xiaoyi shook her head: "No."
The first time, she was moved by maternal love. Although she was moved this time, she was not moved enough to let that person go. The fact that Huo Tao is so arrogant now may actually have something to do with Aunt Huo, and he must be spoiled.
"Why?"
No offense intended, she was just making a metaphor: "If someone slaps you on the left cheek and then slaps you on the right cheek, will you give him a chance next time?"
Aunt Huo was silent. Indeed, if it were her, she wouldn't, but that was her son. If her son hit her on the left cheek and then on the right cheek, she would be sad but would forgive. This is hers.
Motherly love. But Xiaoyi and Huo Tao were just strangers before, and later became enemies. She did not tolerate Huo Tao's position infinitely.
When it came to this matter, Huo Yuncheng pulled Xiao Yi to stand up. After saying goodbye to his grandfather, he said to his second aunt, "Second aunt, let's go first. I will discuss the matter with my second uncle."
After saying that, before Aunt Huo could say anything, she took Xiaoyi out of the yard and got into his car. Xiaoyi looked at him tiredly: "Where are we going now?"
"Go home and take a shower first, and then ask someone to dress you up." Huo Yuncheng said. She hadn't taken a shower all night, and her clothes were still from yesterday.
"Why?"
"I'm going to have dinner with dad tonight." If he guessed correctly, grandpa would soon tell dad about the two of them. It would be the first time for the new daughter-in-law to come to the house, so it would be better to tidy up.
When the two of them were about to get home, Huo's father called, "Yuncheng! I heard from your grandfather that you are going to get engaged to the little girl of the Gu family, right? In three days?"
Huo Yuncheng nodded: "Yes!"
Hearing this, Huo's father scolded Huo Yuncheng: "You bastard! Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'm your father, can I still turn my elbows out?"
After hearing the scolding, Huo Yuncheng said honestly: "I'm afraid of alerting the enemy. Something happened recently, so I have to be careful. I originally planned to tell you after I have dealt with Xiaoyi and A Tao's engagement."
"Then you really like that girl?"
Huo Yuncheng hummed: "Yes."
"Bring her back for dinner tonight!" Although I have met him before, other people's prospective daughter-in-law is very different from his prospective daughter-in-law, and I don't remember clearly from the past. As for Huo Yuncheng's marriage, he obviously
Agree.
Why?
First, the old man told him Huo Yuncheng's plan and would not hurt the feelings between his family and the second family.
Second, this little son was very obedient when he was a child. Maybe he had high hopes and was strict with him. He was also very busy at ordinary times. He rarely saw his son. When he saw him, he would ask about his homework. If he didn't do his homework well, he would be punished.
Even though he was punished, the old man was also very strict with him. As a result, something went wrong over time. The son gradually became less gregarious and had a cold personality. He was not very affectionate to anyone and spoke very little.
I took him to the doctor and he was told that he had mild autism and that he needed to be given the warmth of a family to help him recover.
From then on, the family felt as much pain for their son as they could, but Huo Yuncheng's character had been developed. Although he gradually became more relaxed and gentle towards his family, he was still very indifferent to outsiders.
Very few.
His eyes were cold, and even if a little girl liked him, she would be scared away by his coldness. As a result, Yuncheng has been single for many years, and now he is thirty years old and has not yet married.
He doesn’t associate with any women, but he is relatively close to Ye Zihao.
So word spread outside that Ye Zihao was a pair of glasses.
This made him feel so embarrassed as a father. He immediately called them two to ask. After confirming that it was just a rumor, he immediately arranged a marriage for his son with Gu Lifei. Who knew that the woman was so frightened that he cheated on her? What about his daughter-in-law?
The time has come!
This problem has been giving him a headache, but today he received a call from his father, saying that the boy had found a girl, pampered and cared for her, and wanted to get engaged.
This is a good thing!
So he agreed very much. After all, something is better than nothing. A female wife is better than a male wife. He can't care so much about other things that are carried away by happiness for a while. If you want to get engaged, then book it!
After hanging up the phone, Huo Yuncheng looked at Xiaoyi: "Dad asked us to go back for dinner tonight."
"He promised us to be together?" Xiao Yi felt incredible.
"My dad is actually very easy to talk to. Just relax, he won't refuse as long as I like it." Huo Yuncheng said confidently, because his dad loves him very much and loves him more than his eldest brother.
More tolerant. That is a heavy father's love.
"Oh, what gift should I choose for your dad?" There must be a meeting gift, right?
Huo Yuncheng thought for a while: "Actually, he would be happy even if he didn't buy anything, but we brought a gift to grandpa. If we didn't give it to him, I'm afraid he would hold a grudge. Since it's a formal visit, I'd better choose something more solemn."
"What does he like?"
"The pens are very common hero pens. There are several boxes at home. I don't like vases. He likes growing vegetables. He used to be an educated youth and did farm work. That's when I met my mother. But don't mention it in front of him."
My mother, I'm afraid that he will feel uncomfortable. I will tell you the specific reason later. There is a vegetable patch behind our yard that he is planting."
"Then what does his cup look like?" Xiaoyi suddenly had an idea.
"A purple sand cup for home use."
"Then can I give him a cup?" Xiaoyi remembered that he and Song Yu saw a cup when they were shopping not long ago. His father should like it.
