"He's already gone." Master Li knew how busy their work would be after Huo Haoli left.
Master Li looked at the people present, scanning them over and over, but couldn't find anyone who could replace Huo Haoli.
"Sigh," Master Li sighed, picked up his toolbox from his desk, and left.
After Mr. Li left, the office was so quiet that even breathing was soft.
After finishing his work, Huo Haoli rode his bicycle back to the village.
"You're back. How did it go? Did you finish up with the work?" Seeing Huo Haoli return at this time, Old Master Huo assumed that he had almost finished.
"I sold it to the nephew of one of my mother's colleagues at the food factory. I got 300 yuan for it," Huo Haoli said, handing over the money.
He got this job thanks to his grandfather's help. Now that the job has been sold, he feels that the money should go to his grandfather, even though his mother says he should keep the money for self-defense.
"Why are you giving this to me? Keep it for yourself. When you're out and about, it's good to carry some money with you in case of emergencies." Grandpa Huo didn't take the money. His thoughts were the same as Xiao Xia's. The child was growing up, and when he was out and about, how could he not carry some money?

"Haoshen and Haoshi have gone up the mountain," the old man said irritably to him as he stood in front of him. The meaning was clear: don't linger in front of me.
"Oh, then I'll go find them." Huo Haoli then went to the backyard, picked up a basket, grabbed a sickle, and went out. He had never been good at talking, especially when facing his grandfather. After finishing his business, he didn't know how to chat anymore. So when he heard his grandfather say this, he felt like he had been granted a pardon. He quickly picked up his basket and went up the mountain to find his two brothers.
When the three brothers returned with firewood in the afternoon, the old man told them to go find the Zheng brothers the next day, buy their tickets, and call Huo Haocheng to tell him their boarding time so they wouldn't be lost when they arrived in Yuncheng.
So after Zheng Xuyang managed to buy four sleeper tickets through connections, he called Huo Haocheng, who said he would come to pick them up.
