1970, A Bit Sweet

He Tiantian treated everyone around her with a grateful heart. However, reaching middle age, she discovered she had been living inside a full-bodied lie.

Returning to the year 1970, He Tianti...

Chapter 747 Please, Small Regular Script

747

At the time, Bai Qiongyu couldn't persuade her, but she had already prepared herself mentally. If He Tiantian didn't have a good life, she, as her grandmother, would be her support.

Now, her support is useless.

"Thank you, Grandma." He Tiantian's nose tingled with emotion. Receiving praise from her grandmother made her especially proud, and she felt that everything she had done had become worthwhile.

While He Tiantian was talking to her grandmother and mother, Huo Yingjie and He Jingyu were drinking tea and chatting.

"Yingjie, didn't I hear you went to work?" He Jingyu asked. "Did you take time off to come look at houses with Tiantian?"

Huo Yingjie poured some more tea for his father-in-law and said, "No, Dad. I've finished a project and have a month and a half of vacation. I can spend time at home with Tiantian and help her with whatever I can."

"Wow, a month and a half of vacation? Your company is really generous!" He Jingyu exclaimed in surprise. "Having so much vacation time doesn't make sense!"

He Jingyu knew his employers in China very well; they rarely gave employees holidays like this.

"I told Chief Engineer Sun that we have two major projects a year. If we complete them, he'll get a vacation; otherwise, he'll be accused of slacking off," Huo Yingjie said. "If he can't reunite with his family, who is he working so hard for?"

"Hehe, that's good." He Jingyu laughed. "Your Chief Engineer Sun is a broad-minded person. If it were anyone else, they probably would have made things difficult for you long ago."

Huo Yingjie smiled and said, "If you make things difficult for me, I'll go do civilian research and won't have to be away from home all the time. If civilian research institutions don't want me, then I'll go into business. With my talent, inventing a small household gadget is easy, and I can still support my family."

Huo Yingjie is just like a dead pig that's not afraid of boiling water!

No holidays, no results!

Chief Engineer Sun valued talent and kept all these things a secret, which is why Huo Yingjie was able to live such a comfortable life.

“I don’t know much about your work, but I’m relieved that you have this intention,” He Jingyu said with emotion. It’s the norm for many families to have men working hard outside while women take care of the home.

Many men think these are things women should do, but they don't realize that women also have to work. It's not like in ancient times when women didn't work, only managed the house, took care of the children, and did housework.

Huo Yingjie understands Tian Tian's hardships, cherishes her, and cares for her. This is Tian Tian's happiness.

"Dad, don't worry, I will treat Tian Tian well," Huo Yingjie said. "It's probably because of me that Tian Tian's application process for going abroad is very complicated. I guess you'll have to come back to China more often in the future."

He Jingyu smiled and said, "It's nothing. My mother has bought a private jet, so it's convenient for us to come back."

Being rich is great; you can be powerful and influential!

He Jingyu saw a lot in the United States and often felt fortunate that he went abroad in his forties. If he had been in his twenties, he would not have been able to resist the temptations of the outside world.

"Thank you for your understanding, Father-in-law," Huo Yingjie said gratefully. His wife was wonderful, and her parents were also understanding; they could discuss anything together without any conflict.

After having dinner together, Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian were driven back to the Huo family's old residence by a car arranged by the hotel.

Madam Huo, Song Chunli, and Zhao Huanhuan were chatting when they saw He Tiantian had returned, and they all greeted her with smiles.

"Sweetie, how are your grandmother, parents, and brother?" Old Madam Huo asked. "If they have time, we can invite them over for a simple meal. If they don't have time, I can visit your grandmother myself!"

Regardless, since her in-laws and their grandmother had come, she, as an elder, couldn't fail to show her respect.

After all, she was very satisfied with He Tiantian. When her grandson and granddaughter-in-law got married, she didn't have a big celebration, and she always felt guilty towards He Tiantian. If the elders came and she didn't express her opinion, outsiders would think she was looking down on He Tiantian.

Perhaps He Tiantian doesn't care, but her in-laws, especially her grandmother, are very particular people; they do care!

He Tiantian took out a card that looked like a printed card from her bag and handed it to Old Madam Huo with both hands, saying, "Grandmother, this is an invitation written by my grandmother herself to come and visit."

Madam Huo was taken aback. "Oh dear, these things are all the rage in China now." Receiving such a formal visiting card suddenly filled Madam Huo with many emotions.

That in-law's grandmother was also an old-fashioned and particular person.

A simple gesture reveals his reserved and polite manners.

"Okay, welcome." Madam Huo accepted it with both hands to show her respect. The cover had some elegant magnolia flowers and a few elegant poems on it.

Song Chunli and Zhao Huanhuan were also very curious, and at the same time, they thought that He Tiantian's grandmother was really particular.

Madam Huo solemnly opened it, and her eyes were met with several lines of beautiful small regular script. A faint fragrance wafted out. After a moment of contemplation, she said, "Your grandmother is very thoughtful."

"It's my first time visiting, and Grandma said we should be more formal," He Tiantian said with a smile. She understood what her grandmother and parents meant by coming. Firstly, it was a visit, and secondly, they wanted the Huo family to know that He Tiantian was a woman with her own family and not someone to be bullied.

"Okay, I'll make the arrangements," said Madam Huo. "The child is sleepy, you can go upstairs now."

"Goodnight, Grandma." He Tiantian smiled and carried the child upstairs.

After Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian went upstairs, Song Chunli asked in a low voice, "Could I take a look at that post?"

Madam Huo handed the invitation to Song Chunli and said, "Take a look. The He family is indeed a family of scholars. Such beautiful handwriting cannot be achieved without decades of practice."

After Song Chunli finished reading, Zhao Huanhuan took it to read.

“Yes, it’s really well written,” Zhao Huanhuan said. “I heard Yingjun say before that Tiantian looks a lot like her grandmother. Back in America, they found her grandmother by her appearance.”

"She's truly a beauty," Song Chunli exclaimed, speaking the truth.

"Yes, Huanhuan is pretty too, but compared to Tiantian, she's not quite as good-looking," said Madam Huo. "Huanhuan, don't be angry, it's just the truth!"

"What's the big deal!" Zhao Huanhuan didn't care. He Tiantian was prettier than her anyway, with a better face and figure. "I knew my limitations from the first time I met my second sister-in-law!"

"What's rare is that Tian Tian is beautiful and has a good temperament," said Madam Huo. "Of course, Huan Huan has a good temperament too."

Zhao Huanhuan covered her mouth and laughed, saying, "Grandmother is so good at comforting people. If it were someone else, I might be jealous, but this girl, Tian Tian, ​​is so thoughtful in her words and actions that I would feel embarrassed to be jealous."

"Hehe, you've figured things out quite well." Song Chunli laughed. "Sigh, when I was young, I was secretly jealous of your second aunt. You don't know how good your second uncle was to your second aunt back then. Compared to your father-in-law, who's busy with work every day and just collapses into bed as soon as he gets home without saying a single comforting word, I got angry."
