Huo Yingjie is tall, so even from a distance, he can see Huo Yingjun. Holding He Tiantian's hand, he walks over to Huo Yingjun.
"Luckily, it wasn't late today, otherwise you would have had to wait a long time, brother," Huo Yingjie said with a smile. "Thank you, brother!"
Huo Yingjun punched Huo Yingjie on the shoulder, looked at his younger brother who was half a head taller than him, and laughed, "You rascal, you're in high spirits when something good happens, you look great! My sister-in-law is kind and righteous, and beautiful too, you've really struck gold."
"Hehe!" Huo Yingjie chuckled, quite pleased with himself. "Big brother, you're not bad either, you're carrying a treasure bowl in your arms. Don't envy me, I should envy you, now your big treasure bowl is carrying a small one!"
"Haha, well said!" Huo Yingjun laughed heartily. "If your sister-in-law knew that you praised her as a treasure trove, she would be beaming with joy. As for my son, I don't ask him to be a treasure trove; I just hope he doesn't become a spendthrift."
"Huh?" He Tiantian was taken aback. There weren't any ultrasounds available now, were there? "They already know it's a boy?"
"Yes, Huanhuan's teacher took her pulse and said it's most likely a boy," Huo Yingjun said. "But it doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl, it's our first child anyway, we can have more later!"
Well, hopefully they'll be quick, otherwise they'll be caught up in the family planning policy, which they can't violate given the nature of their work.
"Congratulations, big brother!" He Tiantian said with a smile. Although the tiger shoes she made were unisex, they looked even more imposing on boys.
"Let's go, that's enough talk, get in the car," Huo Yingjun said. "We can talk about it when we get home!"
The group got into the car and headed straight for the Huo family's old residence.
Mr. Huo and Mrs. Huo got up early this morning to prepare for their grandson's arrival with his wife, eagerly awaiting their arrival.
He not only wants to see his granddaughter-in-law, but also wants to see his healthy grandson, Huo Yingjie.
Huo Yingjie's previous injury was a huge blow to them; Huo Yingjie's mental instability was another blow to them.
After their son left with his grandson, although they received some letters about Huo Yingjie's recovery, they couldn't believe it because they hadn't seen him in person, and they were even more worried.
The car was parked at the entrance.
Huo Yingjun led the young couple in and said, "Grandpa, Grandma, Second Brother, and Second Sister-in-law are here."
"It's good that you're here, it's good that you're here." Old Madam Huo came out, warmly took He Tiantian's hand, and looked He Tiantian up and down. Now that she was a member of the Huo family, she was even happier.
"Grandma! Grandpa!" He Tiantian whispered, her face blushing.
Even if you've met before and had a pleasant relationship, it's always a little strange to see each other again in a different capacity.
It's similar to the nervousness a new bride feels when meeting her in-laws.
All of this stems from the importance we place on her, so we hope everyone will like her.
After everyone was seated, Old Madam Huo took out a pair of bracelets and said, "Sweetie, this is a gift for you when we first met. Take it!"
Just by looking at the quality of the bracelet, you can tell it's a good piece and quite old.
He Tiantian glanced at Huo Yingjie.
"Since Grandma gave it to you, you can keep it." Huo Yingjie smiled. You can't take it now, but you can take it later!
"Thank you, Grandma!" He Tiantian took it, put it in a box, and put it in her small bag.
Then, Madam Huo said apologetically, "Tian Tian, we originally wanted to hold a grand wedding for you and Yingjie, but the Huo family had some trouble last year. Although it's been resolved, we have to keep it low-key, so your wedding can't be a big affair. We'll just have a meal with family. Please don't mind!"
“Grandma, I don’t mind.” He Tiantian nodded and said, “That’s how things are. Just do whatever is best for the Huo family.”
"Yes, good child." Old Madam Huo smiled, then took out a larger, long box, opened it, and took out a bright green jade necklace. "I feel bad that I didn't give you a big wedding. I always feel sorry for you and your parents. This necklace is the most precious thing in my dowry, and it was left to me by my mother."
Ah, such a wonderful thing, and so meaningful, how could He Tiantian dare to accept it!
"Grandma, this is too precious, please keep it. Look, I already have a pair of bracelets in my bag, I'm already very happy," He Tiantian quickly said, not daring to accept any more.
Madam Huo smiled and said, "Your grandfather and I feel guilty for not being able to hold a grand wedding for you. If you don't accept it, I'll feel uneasy! I'm already this old, and I don't need these things here. Our Tian Tian is so pretty, she'll definitely look good wearing it."
Seeing He Tiantian hesitate, Grandpa Huo smiled and said, "Child, accept it. We elders won't be happy if you don't accept it!"
"Then I'll accept it on behalf of Tian Tian." Huo Yingjie took it and helped He Tian Tian put it on.
Anyway, it's at home, so it doesn't matter if someone sees it. Besides, it's winter now, so no one can see it if it's inside.
Song Chunli looked at the necklace with envy. She thought it would be passed down to her, but it ended up being given to the second son's daughter-in-law.
Before her son's wedding, the old lady gave Zhao Huanhuan a jade pendant, and after the wedding, she received a pair of jade bracelets. Now, He Tiantian not only has a jade pendant and bracelets, but also such a beautiful necklace.
Not only that, Huo Yingjie's own wedding was not held, but his son's wedding was attended by many prominent figures in Beijing, and it was a very respectable affair.
Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian's wedding was rather modest. It's understandable that the old lady would compensate them.
"Thank you, Grandpa and Grandma." He Tiantian thanked them again, then remembered that she had brought a gift, which she felt a little embarrassed to give, but it was still a token of her appreciation. "Grandpa and Grandma, I brought you gifts too."
"Then I want to see what gift Tian Tian has prepared for me?" Old Madam Huo was very happy. Whether the gift was good or not was one thing, but the important thing was that her granddaughter-in-law had this thought, which made them very happy.
He Tiantian took out two pairs of shoes and said, "Grandma, these blue silk embroidered shoes with magnolia flowers are handmade by me. The magnolia flowers on them were embroidered for me by the grandma from Qijia Village."
Upon seeing the embroidered shoes, Madam Huo's eyes lit up, and she nodded, saying, "It's been many years since I've worn shoes like these. They're so beautiful. I must wear them when the weather gets warmer."
“Grandpa has one too, a pair of black slip-on shoes with a thousand-layer sole.” He Tiantian smiled. “It’s very simple, Grandpa, please don’t mind.”
"I don't mind at all. These shoes are good; they're breathable and won't make your feet smelly," Grandpa Huo chuckled. "Thank you for your hard work."
Then He Tiantian took out two exquisite bamboo tubes and said, "Grandma, this one is flower tea, for you; this one is wild mountain tea, for Grandpa. It's wild mountain tea that I picked on the mountain and roasted. It tastes good, please try it."
