Chapter 829 (Page 1/2)

Huo Qinghuan stayed with his second brother in the hospital for more than two hours and then walked home.

When he dragged his tired body back home, as soon as he entered the door, he saw his little sister running towards him like a cheerful little bird, wearing a pair of sparkling shoes with colorful lights, skipping and jumping.

Huo Rou muttered proudly, "Third brother, third brother, come and see how pretty my new shoes are! Look, they can even light up!"

Hearing his sister's excited shouts, he couldn't help but stop and look carefully at the shoes on her feet.

I saw that the sole of the shoe was transparent. Whenever my sister ran or stomped her feet, the light bulbs would flash colorful lights, which was very beautiful.

So, he smiled and praised his sister, "It's really beautiful! This must be a gift that my sister-in-law bought for you from Guangzhou. Next time you see my sister-in-law, don't forget to say thank you to her."

The younger sister nodded obediently and replied, "Yes, I know. Rourou likes my eldest sister-in-law the most. But third brother, are there many shoes like this for sale in Guangzhou?"

Facing his sister's curious question, he scratched his head, thought for a moment and replied, "Well... I'm not too sure.

My sister-in-law said that these shoes seemed to be shipped from the port city, so the price might be a little higher.

It's so hot now. If you keep running and playing in them, your feet will easily get sweaty and stuffy. Why don't you take off your shoes first and put them on when the weather is cooler?

However, Huo Rou shook her head and said stubbornly, "No, I just want to try it on so that Dad can see it when he comes back.

After my dad finished reading it, I immediately put the shoes away and saved them for the New Year.

After saying that, she happily turned around a few times, showing off her beloved new shoes.

At this time, Huo Junshan pushed his bicycle into the yard. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw the little girl circling around the little son. He smiled and said:

"Hey, Qinghuan is back. How come you have time to come back today? Could it be that your sister-in-law is back?"

Huo Qinghuan nodded, "Yes, Dasou came back last night."

Huo Junshan leisurely stopped the old but well-maintained bicycle slowly and leisurely, and then stood steadily aside.

At this time, Huo Rou ran to him like a happy little rabbit, and quickly raised her little feet.

"Dad, please come and have a look. Come and have a look at my new shoes."

Huo Rou looked at her father expectantly, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

Huo Junshan smiled and lowered his head, carefully looking at the shoes on his daughter's feet.

Seeing that the shoes were of novel style, he couldn't help but praise them, "Oh, these shoes are really beautiful, Rourou baby, did your third brother buy them for you?"

Hearing this, Huo Rou quickly shook her head and said anxiously, "No, Dad, please take a closer look and see if there's anything special about these shoes."

Before she finished speaking, Huo Rou jumped hard on the ground a few times.

Seeing this, Huo Qinghuan, who was standing nearby, smiled and explained, "Dad, this pair of shoes was actually bought by my sister-in-law for my younger sister. The special thing about these shoes is that they light up.

The eldest sister-in-law not only bought a pair of these shoes for her younger sister, but also bought a pair for each of the three children in her second brother's family.

It’s just that the two youngest children in my second brother’s family are too young and their legs are too short to use them yet, so we didn’t buy them.”

Huo Junshan nodded in satisfaction, a pleased smile on his face. "Well, your eldest brother and his wife have always been so generous. No matter where they go, they always think of our big family. Every time they come back, they bring everyone a thoughtful gift."

When Huo Qinghuan heard his father praising his elder brother and sister-in-law, he scratched his head a little embarrassedly and muttered softly:

"Dad, don't worry. When I make money in the future, I will definitely buy you lots of gifts."

However, at this moment, Huo Rou discovered that her father was so busy chatting with her third brother that he completely ignored the pair of sparkling shoes on her feet.

So she shouted anxiously: "Dad, Dad! Please look at my shoes. Look and see if they glow like the fireflies that twinkle at night."

Huo Junshan quickly agreed, "Yes, yes, these shoes sparkle like fireflies, they're really beautiful."

Huo Qinghuan reached out his hand and gently rubbed his sister Huo Rou's head with a doting look in his eyes, and gently reminded her, "Little sister, go change your shoes quickly, it's time for dinner."

Hearing her brother's words, Huo Rou slowly raised her chubby calves, blinked her big eyes, looked down at the pair of beautiful shoes on her feet, and couldn't help but praise: "Wow, my shoes are so beautiful!"

Huo Junshan, who was standing by, couldn't help laughing when he saw his daughter being so conceited. He said gently, "Alright, Rourou, stop admiring your shoes. Hurry and change into sandals. We need to have dinner."

Urged by her father, Huo Rou woke up as if from a dream, and ran hurriedly into the house with brisk steps.

Huo Junshan stood there, sniffing hard. Suddenly, his brows furrowed slightly, and he muttered to himself in confusion, "Huh? Why do I smell bacon?"

At this time, Huo Qinghuan smiled and explained: "Dad, it's not the smell of bacon, it's actually the aroma of air-dried chicken.

When my sister-in-law came back from Guangzhou this time, she specially brought you a dried chicken, three pounds of Cantonese sausage, and seven or eight boxes of Cantonese biscuits."

Huo Junshan nodded slightly after hearing this, but still asked curiously, "So it's air-dried chicken that hasn't been smoked. I wonder if it tastes as good as your sister-in-law's smoked chicken."

Huo Qinghuan shook his head, indicating that he was not quite sure, and then replied: "Well... I really don't know, after all, this is the first time I've eaten dried chicken in Yangcheng.

But having said that, the cured chicken made by my sister-in-law is really delicious. Every time she makes it, I always eat two extra bowls of rice."

"Haha, every time I have cured chicken, I have to drink two cups to feel comfortable." After saying that, Huo Junshan strode into the house with his son.

As soon as the father and son stepped into the house, they were stunned by the scene before them. They saw that the eight-immortal table was already filled with several plates of meat and vegetables, which made them salivate.

Xiao Ya, who was busy at work, saw them come in and quickly took off the apron tied around her waist. She smiled and said to the two of them, "You two are quite quick. Go wash your hands first, and then come sit down and eat."

Huo Qinghuan trotted back to the backyard to wash his hands, and Huo Junshan turned and walked towards his room.

After entering the room, he skillfully opened the cabinet and took out a bottle of long-treasured white wine from it, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

When Xiao Ya saw the white wine in Huo Junshan's hand, her smiling face froze instantly and her expression suddenly became gloomy.

She frowned and said worriedly, "Junshan, have you forgotten? Qingyan drank so much last time that he had stomach bleeding. He's still in the hospital! It's summer, and the weather is so hot. You should try to drink less. It's not good for your health."

Hearing his wife's words, Huo Junshan quickly smiled and said, "Oh, Xiaoya, don't worry. Look, there are so many delicious snacks on the table today. Wouldn't it be a shame if we didn't have a few glasses of wine to go with them?"

I promise to only drink two cups and never overdo it, okay?" He raised his right hand and made an oath gesture.

Xiao Ya helplessly scolded, "Humph, if I had known it would be like this, I shouldn't have cooked so many dishes tonight. Really, you guys can't control your mouths."

Although she complained, she actually loved her husband in her heart and was just worried that he would hurt his body by drinking too much.

At this moment, Huo Qinghuan walked over quickly with a full basin of water and placed it steadily on the coffee table.

Then he raised his head and shouted to Huo Junshan, "Dad, the water has been brought to you. Go wash your hands and get ready for dinner!"

After he finished speaking, he walked briskly to the dining table, looked at Xiao Ya with a smile on his face, and coaxed her coquettishly:

"Mom, I know you made so many snacks because you care about me and Dad.

Don't worry, if Dad wants to drink two cups, let him have them. I won't drink even one. I'll listen to you."

Xiao Ya frowned and said with a look of reproach, "If you really listen to me, then hurry up and bring me a partner! Look at you and your second brother, neither of you really gives me peace of mind!"

Hearing his mother say this, Huo Qinghuan couldn't help but grumble, "Mom, it's fine if you're talking about my second brother, but why are you dragging me into this?! If you keep nagging like this, I'll go straight back to the city tomorrow!"

Xiao Ya rolled her eyes at Huo Qinghuan and responded unhappily, "Sure, go back if you want! It's better to go back early anyway, and you can help your sister-in-law with some work!"

At this time, Huo Junshan silently unscrewed the cap of the wine bottle, then turned around, picked up a wine glass, and slowly poured himself a full glass of wine.

Then he slowly sat down again, his movements appearing steady and calm.

Huo Junshan looked at Huo Qinghuan and asked in confusion, "You little brat, you just got home today, why are you in such a hurry to leave tomorrow?"

Huo Qinghuan quickly explained, "Dad, my sister-in-law brought back a lot of wholesale clothes from Yangcheng this time, and she's planning to take her nephews to set up a street stall to test the waters!"

Huo Junshan was slightly taken aback, then asked, "Oh? Didn't she say before that she would slowly open the shops one by one after the National Day? Why did she suddenly change her mind and decide to set up a stall first?"

Huo Qinghuan replied with a smile: "My sister-in-law said that she wanted to try it out first to see how it works. If the stall business is good, she will be more confident about opening a store later!"
