He Tiantian poured tea, sat down, and talked to her parents-in-law.
"Dad, Mom, you two get some rest," He Tiantian reminded them. "We'll go to Grandpa and Grandma's tonight."
Jiang Lifang smiled, very happy, and said, "Okay, let's go to the old house tonight, and go to the Jiang family tomorrow."
A hint of weariness appeared between Huo Zhekun's brows.
“Then let’s go,” Huo Zhekun said. “I’m a little tired.”
"The room is all ready, it's in the front yard," He Tiantian explained. That yard was prepared for her parents-in-law; they usually live in the back yard and drive in from the back parking lot.
He Tiantian led her parents-in-law to the front yard, pointed to a small room on the side, and said, "Dad, Mom, there's a small bathroom over there. Don't go out to wash up; it'll be warmer inside."
Jiang Lifang looked around at the furniture and furnishings, and was pleasantly surprised at every turn. This courtyard was truly wonderful.
"Great job, Tiantian, you've decorated this house very well," Jiang Lifang said with a smile. "We're only able to stay in such a nice room because of Tiantian."
"Yes." Huo Zhekun smiled, his feet lightly tapping the floor, making a pleasant wooden sound.
"Hehe, this is our home, so of course we should decorate it nicely. I'm glad Mom and Dad like it." He Tiantian said with a smile. "Okay, I've already brewed the tea, and the thermos is full of water."
"Alright, go back and rest. We have hands and feet, we can take care of ourselves," Jiang Lifang said. "Thank you, Tiantian."
"You're welcome." He Tiantian smiled and turned to leave.
After returning home, He Tiantian sorted out the money, taking out 89,000 yuan from each side and placing them in two separate brown paper bags. That evening, she went to the Huo family's old residence, giving one copy to Song Chunli and the other to Zhao Huanhuan, and had them sign the documents. This completed this year's dividend distribution.
Huo Yingjie was also very happy because his parents came.
The children played together and weren't sleepy, so He Tiantian couldn't take a nap either, as she played with the children.
At 3 p.m., Jiang Lifang and Huo Zhekun finished their rest, got dressed, and prepared to return to the Huo family's old residence.
He Tiantian also helped Huo Yingjie change his clothes.
The three children were also dressed like cotton balls, wearing hats and scarves, with their big eyes showing.
Since the start of his vacation, Huo Ruixiang has been here and hasn't returned to the Huo family's old residence.
"Mom, look at the New Year's gifts I prepared, are they okay?" He Tiantian opened the trunk and pointed them out to her mother-in-law one by one.
Jiang Lifang glanced at it and nodded, saying, "Not bad, it's already very good. I originally thought I would be busy for two or three days after coming here, but now that you've done everything, I can finally enjoy myself."
“You’re already so busy, and it’s not easy for you to come all the way to Yanjing, how could I let you go through all that trouble!” He Tiantian said with a smile. “Brother Yingjie and I are the younger generation, and we are young, so naturally we should do more and be good to our elders.”
"Okay, okay!" Jiang Lifang didn't know what to say, she just kept praising He Tiantian.
Huo Yingjie sat in He Tiantian's car and adjusted the seat back a bit.
Grandma Wang sat in the back seat with the children.
Zhang Ning drove Huo Zhekun and Jiang Lifang to the Huo family's old residence.
Old Master Huo was also thinking that his second son would be returning to Yanjing soon, so these past few days when he went out for a walk, he would always come back to the front gate to wander around, hoping to see his second son and his family soon.
When Grandpa Tang has nothing to do, he often goes out for a walk.
Seeing Old Master Huo smile, he said, "Brother Huo, you used to say you liked to go for walks in other places, but you didn't like coming here. It's a bit windy!"
"Hehe, I'm in good health and not afraid of the cold, so I'll just wander around." After saying that, Old Master Huo glanced at the gate a few more times.
"Still being stubborn." Old Master Tang shook his head and chuckled. "You just want to wait for your youngest son to return to Beijing!"
"Ahem!" Old Master Huo was a little embarrassed, as his long-standing "tough guy" image had been shattered.
"Missing your child is nothing to be ashamed of," Grandpa Tang said with a smile. "Now I understand, as long as the child is well, that's better than anything else!"
Old Master Huo smiled and asked, "The Li family is riding high right now, aren't you upset?"
"Hehe, what's there to be upset about?" Old Master Tang said. "I owed the Li family back then, and now I've paid them back. As for the money I lost, it's nothing compared to my son's reformation. As long as he's alive, money and career prospects are no big deal."
"It's good that you think that way. I was going to comfort you, but it seems that's not necessary." Old Master Huo laughed. This old Tang is indeed shrewd. However, even shrewd people sometimes do foolish things. Fortunately, he wasn't completely foolish and knew to clean up the mess for his youngest son.
"Hehe, I wouldn't mind if you offered some comfort," Old Master Tang chuckled. "The world isn't like it was back then. Young people have their own ideas, and we can't control them anymore."
"Alright, your three sons and one daughter are all quite good," said Old Master Huo. "Don't be ungrateful. I don't think the fourth one has always been a troublemaker. You should just stay home and enjoy your life."
"I hope so," Old Master Tang said with a smile. "All of us old buddies who survived are envious of you. You have a loving father and filial son, a harmonious family, a stable career, and a house full of children and grandchildren."
That's the truth; when these people meet, they all say the same things.
In the end, everyone thought that Old Man Huo, this rough and uncultured man, had gotten incredibly lucky to be doing so well.
As they were talking, He Tiantian drove ahead, and after inspection, she was allowed to drive right in.
"Hehe, you're here." Old Master Huo chuckled. "Old Tang, it's so cold outside, you should go back."
Old Master Tang pursed his lips, somewhat disdainful of Old Master Huo's hypocrisy, but inwardly he was also envious!
But thinking about my son and daughter, only the fourth one is a bit weaker, but he has already reformed and will get better in the future.
"Hehe, I haven't seen Zhekun in a long time. Let's chat for a bit before you go," Old Master Tang said with a smile, without leaving.
Upon seeing that the old man in front was Grandpa Huo, He Tiantian quickly stopped the car and said, "Grandpa, please get in, I'll drive you home."
Grandpa Huo chuckled and said, "No need, you can drive home first."
Huo Yingjie has a bad leg, and with Grandma Wang and three children behind him, He Tiantian had no choice but to drive away.
Seeing Huo Zhekun behind her, Jiang Lifang couldn't stay in the car any longer and quickly got out.
"Father!" Huo Zhekun exclaimed excitedly, "Uncle Tang is here too!"
"It's good that you're back." Old Master Huo nodded and smiled, even more satisfied with his second son.
Although the eldest son was also very talented, he was far inferior to the second son, whose future was much brighter.
