The villa was very quiet. Xiao Yiheng also took Mo Xi out to play. Xiao Muyou seemed to have invited a few friends to eat out. Several elders in the family were not at home, so no one disturbed Xiao Siluo and Feng Beichen.
Two days later, Huo Lan and the baby were discharged from the hospital. Shanhaiwan Bay suddenly became more lively. Families who had good relations with the Xiao family also came to visit them in the past few days. It must be said that Xiao Jinyue was once again a man with gold in his mouth.
The little princess who was born in Shao, just look at the gifts she has received in the past few days, which can be described as being worth thousands of gold.
The most surprising thing is that Tu Junye, who is far away from abroad, also asked someone to give the baby a generous gift. It was because of this gift that Huo Lan remembered what Xiao Yihe had previously asked him to investigate.
In fact, Xiao Yihe has also been thinking about finding a suitable opportunity to tell Huo Lan the truth about the past few days. Since Huo Lan mentioned it, Xiao Yihe is not hiding it.
"Xiaolan, before I talk, you must promise me not to get too excited. The doctor said that you must keep a happy mood during confinement. As for what you want to do, we can wait until you have confinement last night to talk about it, okay?"
Besides, before, Xiao Yihe had vaccinated Huo Lan in advance. He was afraid that what happened back then would irritate Huo Lan. After all, this is a special period. If for some reason, there was another postpartum depression, what would Xiao Yihe do?
Regret for life.
When Xiao Yihe said this, the Xiao family, including Mrs. Huo, were all present. Huo Lan was stunned for a moment, and her expression became much more serious. She looked at Xiao Yihe's solemn expression and asked.
"Yihe, is it really the same as what was written in the information Tu Junye gave me?"
"No, the matter of your father's company has nothing to do with our Xiao family, but it was indeed harmed by others."
Xiao Yihe said in a low voice, although he has nothing to do with the Xiao family, that person is Huo Lan's uncle after all. After all, he is also a close relative by blood. I wonder if Huo Lan can accept such a truth.
At this time, Mrs. Huo, who was sitting next to her with the same solemn expression, held Huo Lan's hand and said.
"Xiaolan, just listen to Yihe, okay?"
When Mrs. Huo said this, Huo Lan was stunned for a moment and then said.
"Mom, did he tell you everything?"
Mrs. Huo nodded.
"That was the day I came back from Penang. In fact, it was Yihe who called me back. I knew everything. I just didn't expect that your father had been silently enduring everything. I actually didn't know anything. You said that my wife did this
Not competent at all.”
When Mrs. Huo thought about her husband's tragic death, she felt extremely regretful. If she had cared more about her husband at that time, if she had been more sensitive, he would not have died.
Seeing her mother so sad, Huo Lan also looked sad. She was studying abroad when her father died. She couldn't imagine how her mother faced this bad news.
"Mom, it's over now, don't be sad."
Mrs. Huo also knew that she had lost her composure, so she wiped the corners of her eyes, smiled, and comforted Huo Lan.
"I'm not sad, I just miss your dad a little."
"Yihe, don't worry. No matter what the truth is, I can bear it. I survived the most difficult times. How can I still not accept the truth? I just don't want my father to die in such an unclear way."
Xiao Yihe nodded, and then placed a document in front of Huo Lan. He had just asked Lei Yan to fax it over. This time when he returned to Luo City, he did not bring that document back.
"This is the truth of the whole thing back then. In those years, your father's company has been secretly supporting your uncle's faction. If everything goes well and their supporters can take the top position, then your uncle and your father will
The company will be the hero, but I didn’t expect it to fail in the end. The other party took advantage of the leader, and the only condition they proposed was your father’s company. In the end, those people sold your father and Tucson Real Estate for their own rights and status.
He was treated as an abandoned child and sent away."
Huo Lan looked through the documents in her hand and listened to Xiao Yihe's story. She never thought that the truth of the whole matter would be like this, let alone that the person who really hurt them would be her uncle.
The document clearly stated that if her father did not hand over the company at that time, his uncle's career would have come to an end.
Huo Lan remembered that her uncle was already in a high position at that time, but he could not continue to rise. But because he was greedy for power, he gave up her father. This was his sister's husband, how could he be so ruthless.
Huo Lan didn't bother to read the next few pages, which listed the details of the financial support his father gave to that faction in those years. With so much money, if her father hadn't spent the money on these people, Tucson Real Estate would probably have
There won't be any shortage of funds.
"Mom, how do you plan to handle this matter?"
After all, it was related to her relatives. Huo Lan knew that her mother cared about these family ties, although she hated this uncle at the moment. Fortunately, Xiao Yihe had arranged a job for his daughter and son-in-law before.
Mrs. Huo's attitude had already been made clear to Xiao Yihe, so when Huo Lan asked about this, she didn't hesitate at all.
"Xiao Lan, just do whatever you want, and don't worry about me. Since he killed your father despite me, my biological sister, then I will treat him as if I don't have a brother."
After saying that, Mrs. Huo sighed softly.
"Speaking of which, your uncle was able to embark on the official career path with the help of your grandfather. Otherwise, he would just be an accountant in a certain company now."
Huo Lan was a little surprised when she heard this, because her grandfather passed away not long after she was born. She only heard that her grandfather used to be an official in Penang, but later retired due to illness, and died of the illness not long after.
As long as she can remember, her family has been in business, and her uncle is already the second-in-command of a county-level city below Penang.
The more Huo Lan knew, the more cruel she became to this ruthless uncle. If it was true as her mother said, it would be like the Huo family had cultivated a white-eyed wolf. I wonder if her grandfather would regret his promotion if he knew this.
Got this person.
Huo Lan was quiet for a long time, showing no emotion at all. He looked very calm, so calm that Xiao Yihe was even a little scared.
"Xiaolan, you..."
"I'm fine, I'm just thinking about what I can do to teach these people a lesson."
Hearing what Huo Lan said, Xiao Yihe breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Huo Lan was not immersed in grief and anger.
"Xiaolan, don't worry, I have already started arranging this matter. I didn't tell you before because you were still pregnant and I was afraid that you would be irritated."
When Huo Lan heard this, she was still very moved. She smiled slightly and said.
"I'm fine, husband. I want to resolve this matter myself."
When Huo Lan said this, Mrs. Huo immediately stopped her.
"Xiaolan, you are still in confinement, so you shouldn't work too hard."
"Yes, yes, Xiaolan, I think this matter should be left to Yihe to solve. Your first priority now is to take good care of your body. If the confinement period is not done well, the root cause of the disease will be imprinted in the future."
Xiao Yingxi on the side also started to persuade. She knew very well the complexity of this matter and Huo Lan was definitely not qualified to handle it in her current situation.
But Huo Lan's attitude was very firm, she said firmly.
"Mom, Yihe, Mommy, this is my father's business. I used to be young and ignorant, and I never helped my father do anything. Now this is the only thing I can do for him. Tucson Real Estate was founded by my father.
, I know how important the company is to him, and I want to help him get the company back and hang up the Tucson Real Estate sign again. This is the only filial piety that I can fulfill as my daughter."
"Xiaolan..."
"Okay, I'll let you handle this matter by yourself, but I have a few requests."
Just when Mrs. Huo was about to stop her, Xiao Yihe also spoke up. He agreed to Huo Lan. In fact, he had not done anything until now because he wanted Huo Lan to solve the matter by himself.
Seeing this, Mrs. Huo sighed softly and said nothing more. Seeing that Xiao Yihe agreed, Huo Lan also asked quickly.
"any request?"
"This matter is not something we ordinary people can solve. I know you want to get the Tucson Property back. I will not interfere in this matter, but I will handle the rest."
Huo Lan was silent, not because she was unwilling, but because she was weighing the seriousness of the matter. It can be seen from the documents that Wanhui Real Estate now has a deep background in Penang. If it were to use commercial means alone, it would not be affected at all.
No Wanhui Real Estate.
After thinking for a moment, Huo Lan nodded.
"Okay, I promise you."
Seeing Huo Lan relent, Xiao Yihe also breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Huo Lan would have his own way.
"Now there is one more thing. Once this thing starts, there will be no turning back. So, your uncle, what do you think?"
Huo Lan knew what Xiao Yihe meant. If she took action, her uncle would probably retire early. This was the best outcome.
Huo Lan hated this uncle in her heart, but she also had to consider her mother's feelings. Huo Lan looked at Mrs. Huo.
Mrs. Huo sighed softly and shook her head.
"Xiaolan, don't worry about me. From the moment your uncle turned his back on your father, he was no longer my relative."
After understanding her mother's attitude, Huo Lan said very resolutely that whatever the outcome should be, Liu Ruicheng and Cao Sitong should also find a way to get them to leave Kyoto.
Huo Lan said fiercely. No one here thought Huo Lan was cruel. Since her uncle did such a thing in the first place, he should bear all the consequences.
Xiao Yihe looked at Huo Lan who was so calm and determined, and actually felt very distressed. He would rather Huo Lan make a fuss and cry at this time than live with such hatred.
Xiao Yihe hugged Huo Lan tightly and said softly.
"Xiao Lan, my father-in-law is no longer here, and I believe he doesn't want you to live with this hatred."
Feeling Xiao Yihe's warmth, Huo Lan's eyes gradually softened. She leaned tiredly into Xiao Yihe's arms and said.
"I know, I just can't figure out why my uncle would be so cruel. Didn't he consider whether my mother could accept it after my father's accident? Didn't he consider how my mother would live in the future? Just because
That position of power?”
"Xiaolan, it's over. Everything will be over. As long as I'm here from now on, I will take good care of you, my mother-in-law."
"Mommy, why are you crying?"
At this time, Xiao Gua ran out from the nearby game room and saw Huo Lan feeling uncomfortable in Xiao Yihe's arms, with tears still hanging from the corners of his eyes. He hurriedly ran over and hugged Huo Lan.
"The Overlord's Pursuit of Marriage: Madam, where are you running?"
I like the boss who pursues marriage: Madam, where are you running?
