Mother Shen, who was sitting in the passenger seat, seemed surprised as well. "Is that Chairman Huo?"

Father Shen pondered for a moment, “Yes.”

No wonder the couple was so surprised.

There are strict car regulations for leaders' travel.

Most cadres below the vice-ministerial level travel in Shanghai-branded 760 sedans, while only cadres at the ministerial level and above are eligible to use cars like the Hongqi 770 series.

When they saw the car parked on the side of the road, they thought it was a security guard driving out to do something.

I didn’t expect Chairman Huo to be here too!

"Hey, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and go down and say hello." When Shen's mother reacted, her face was full of excitement.

As if she thought of something, she quickly took out an invitation from her bag.

In the past, both the Chen and Huo families lived in the Xishan compound, although one was the main compound and the other was the naval compound.

The two family compounds are two or three kilometers apart.

But there are always one or two such cases every month.

But since Huo's father got a promotion and moved to the military headquarters in the early 1980s, the two families haven't seen each other for more than half a day.

Mother Shen said: "It's a rare opportunity. Please send this invitation to Chairman Huo. It would be great if you can invite him."

"Oh, call your husband and bring him over so he can get to know his face."

"You don't even need to tell me that."

Father Shen took the invitation and walked over quickly to greet him.

When he got to the front, he showed surprise at the right moment, "Chairman Huo, why are you here too?"

Father Huo nodded slightly and said, "Come and pick him up."

Father Shen had a look of coincidence on his face, “Me too.”

After saying that, he waved towards Shen Chao and his wife in the distance, "You two, come here quickly."

When Xu Fangmin heard her father-in-law calling them, she felt inexplicably relieved.

"I'm so sorry, old classmate. We're a little anxious. Maybe next time. I'll definitely take you there next time."

As soon as the words fell, she quickly dragged her man towards Father Shen's side.

"Dad, it's so cold, why are you here?"

Xu Fangmin finished speaking breathlessly, and then she noticed Mr. Huo standing beside her.

strangeness.

Why does this person look so familiar? I seem to have seen him somewhere before.

Before she could react, Shen Chao had already stepped forward and saluted the other party with a standard military salute.

"Hello, Chief!"

Father Shen introduced him to Father Huo with an eager look on his face, "Chairman Huo, this is my useless boy, Shen Chao. He is currently serving in the 26th Division of the Yangcheng Military Region. He was just promoted to officer last week..."

Father Huo nodded and said, "Very good."

But there is only this one sentence, no more.

He was always thinking about his two lovely grandchildren, so at this moment he could only wink at Mrs. Huo frantically.

However, Mrs. Huo didn't even glance over here.

After getting out of the car, she walked straight towards her son and daughter-in-law.

After saying hello to my third uncle and Uncle Zhong.

Mother Huo glanced at her daughter-in-law, and her brows furrowed the next second.

"Si Si, why do you look thinner to me?"

Jiang Si didn't deny it, because she really had lost weight.

After giving her mother-in-law a big hug, she explained.

"The two little ones didn't eat well, so Azhou and I discussed it and decided to stop breastfeeding them. Now they are fed with formula all day long."

She has a physique that is prone to losing weight. After she stopped breastfeeding, she ate less and her weight dropped naturally.

"No, this time I'll give you some good nourishment."

After Mrs. Huo finished speaking, she looked around.

"Where are my two wonderful grandchildren?"

Hearing this, Huo Tingzhou unbuttoned his military coat.

Immediately, two white and pink little faces appeared.

The child was carried in a specially made backpack, probably because Beijing had just had a heavy snowfall.

The two guys were so excited that they forgot to blink, and their big black eyes were looking at everything outside curiously.

“Oh~oh~”

Sui Sui suddenly said "oh" twice to his sister.

When Zhao Zhao heard his brother's "oh", he was stunned for a moment.

Then he opened his toothless mouth and made a babbling sound in response.
