Just as Huo Yingjie hugged He Tiantian, he heard He Jingyu's voice coming from outside.

"Shuping, where's Yingjie?" He Jingyu asked loudly as soon as he got home.

He came down from the mountain and passed by the livestock team's place. He went inside to take a look, but Huo Yingjie was not there.

When she got home, she saw that her daughter's door was closed and she didn't see Huo Yingjie in the yard.

He Jingyu guessed that Huo Yingjie must be in his daughter's room, and he was very unhappy about it.

Even under his watchful eye, he didn't behave himself, so he deliberately spoke loudly.

Upon hearing He Jingyu's voice, Huo Yingjie inside pouted like a wronged wife and said, "Your father is at it again, playing the big stick that breaks up couples."

"You're the one who's a big idiot!" He Tiantian quickly covered Huo Yingjie's mouth and said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense, my dad will be angry if he hears you."

With her fair little hand so close, Huo Yingjie certainly wouldn't let such a good opportunity pass by, so he stuck out his tongue and licked He Tiantian's palm.

"You bad guy!" He Tiantian quickly withdrew her hand, her face turning even redder.

Seeing that Wang Shuping didn't speak, He Jingyu quickly gave her a look, signaling her to say something!

Wang Shuping smiled and said, "Yingjie is inside teaching Tiantian to read!"

"Oh, I see!" He Jingyu laughed. "Yingjie, Tiantian, come out, I brought you some delicious food."

Huo Yingjie rolled his eyes. The most delicious food was right in front of him, and he didn't want to eat anything else.

Huo Yingjie didn't want to pay attention to his future father-in-law, but He Tiantian couldn't refuse.

"Hey, I'm coming right away," He Tiantian said crisply, pulling Huo Yingjie to go out.

Huo Yingjie looked listless and utterly dejected, which was quite pitiful.

He Tiantian stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek, saying, "Okay, Dad called! He was just worried about me! Think about it, if we have a daughter in the future, and she's not even an adult yet, and a man flirts with her in front of you, wouldn't you be furious?"

Huo Yingjie raised an eyebrow, thought about the scene, and said solemnly, "I won't jump up and down, I'll grab that brat, beat him up, and throw him out."

"You said that too, which proves that my dad has been very kind." He Tiantian shrugged, putting herself in his shoes!

"Okay." Huo Yingjie gave He Tiantian a final kiss on the cheek before leaving with her.

Wang Shuping and He Jingyu, both experienced people, were furious when they saw their daughter's adorable appearance. They suspected that Huo Yingjie had taken advantage of the situation and profited greatly.

That brat!

"Sweetie, come here and help me cook." Wang Shuping smiled and pulled her daughter into the kitchen.

It's cold now, and there are a lot of people, so we need to do a lot of preparation.

He Tiantian went to the kitchen with her mother.

"Yingjie, come on, let's talk about the next episode." He Jingyu called out to Huo Yingjie, whose eyes were practically glued to his daughter. It was so embarrassing.

"Okay." Compared to his sweet and adorable sweetheart, his future father-in-law's angry glare was really affecting his mood!

However, there's nothing we can do about it!

Who told him to be He Tiantian's father!

Huo Yingjie was in a bad mood, and when he played chess, he showed no mercy, utterly defeating He Jingyu.

He Jingyu was even angrier. This kid is so clueless.

He wants to marry my daughter, but he doesn't know how to please his future father-in-law. I'll definitely make things difficult for him in the future and keep my daughter until she's 28 before she becomes a nun.

One afternoon, the sound of He Jingyu arguing with Huo Yingjie could be heard.

He Tiantian, who was in the kitchen, asked with some concern, "Mom, won't they start fighting inside?"

"Ignore them," Wang Shuping said. "Tian Tian, ​​when did Yingjie leave?"

He Tiantian felt a little disappointed and said, "He's leaving tomorrow morning; he's taking the evening train."

"Okay, I'll bring Yingjie something to eat then," Wang Shuping said with a smile. "By the way, are you learning English now so it will be easier for you to go to America in the future?"

“Yes, I want to go to America,” He Tiantian said with a smile. “Otherwise, Grandma will be very worried if she goes there alone and doesn’t know anyone.”

“Well, it’s good that you go too,” Wang Shuping said. “This is a major event for both countries, so it shouldn’t be affected. You can go without worry.”

Furthermore, Wang Shuping believed that the Huo family would not harm them.

“Of course, this is a matter of foreign policy. Our relations with the Soviet Union are currently tense and strained, with frequent clashes in the north. If we don’t establish diplomatic relations with the United States, we will face the hostility of two superpowers, which would be very detrimental to our national security. When it comes to national security, those evil spirits don’t dare to come forward,” He Tiantian explained. In her previous life, even though everyone knew that Qi Shu was in the United States, after the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States, when he came to Qi Family Village, no one dared to cause trouble for the villagers.

Overseas relationships? Well, we need to see what kind of overseas relationships they are!

Qi Shu is now gambling with almost all his savings. If the country makes things difficult for his family, it will make overseas Chinese feel even more disheartened!

You can catch spies and traitors, that's fine, it's for national security!

But you can't call someone a spy or a traitor just because they have normal overseas connections!

It is important to know that during the War of Resistance Against Japan, many overseas Chinese generously offered their help, donating money and clothes, hoping that their motherland could drive out the invaders as soon as possible.

Many of them have also made contributions.

Wang Shuping smiled and said, "My daughter has grown up and is more comprehensive in her thinking."

"Of course, I can't just grow tall and not smart!" He Tiantian laughed. "Mom, when I go to America, I'll bring you a gift."

Hearing this, Wang Shuping stopped what she was doing and said with a smile, "Daughter, we don't have any money right now, so there are some things we can't afford. Let's not buy them for now. We can buy them later when we have more money. When we get to Qi Shu's house, we can't ask him for anything."

He Tiantian smiled and quickly explained, "Of course I won't ask, but knowing Grandma's personality, she'll definitely prepare something for me. As for me, I'm going to go to the place where Grandpa used to go to school and pick up two maple leaves for you, make them into bookmarks, and give them to you and Dad."

"Yes!" Wang Shuping nodded. "That's a good idea!"

Wang Shuping doesn't want her to be too worldly, but she also doesn't want her daughter to be detached from worldly affairs. This kind of daughter is quite good.

Wang Shuping was incredibly grateful that during He Tiantian's most important year, a strong and wise woman like Grandma Qi was by her daughter's side. This had a profound impact on her daughter's growth and would benefit her for a lifetime.

The mother and daughter chatted and laughed, while the two grown men playing chess in the living room were completely at odds.

He Jingyu was angry because Huo Yingjie had taken advantage of his daughter, but his daughter liked this man, and he, as her father, could only be angry.

Huo Yingjie was also feeling aggrieved, as his good time had been interrupted by his future father-in-law, and he was quite angry.

The two were locked in a battle of wits, exchanging blows back and forth—it was quite a spectacle!
