"Um"
After thinking about it, he decided to just buy it and leave it at that. At worst, he could find some things to buy and send back to them later.
After figuring it out, he called the Huo family again.
Huo Yue answered the phone this time.
"Why are you answering the phone? Where's Dad?" Huo Haocheng's joy vanished as soon as he heard Huo Yue on the other end of the line. He remembered how his wife had left him here alone because she wanted to go back to her wedding.
"What, can't I answer the phone? It's spring planting season now, of course Dad's in the fields at this time. Let me tell you, if I hadn't just finished registering the farm tools, I would have been busy if you were two minutes later. Who would want to answer your call?"
Huo Yue could only retort to her older brother over the phone; if she were standing in front of him now, she wouldn't be able to say such tough things.
Upon hearing Huo Yue's words, Huo Haocheng suddenly remembered that spring plowing had begun in Northeast China.
"Alright then, tell your parents and grandparents to take good care of themselves. It's okay if you get fewer work points, as long as you have enough to eat. Call me if anything happens, okay?" The troupe is busy right now, and he can't go back to help. Besides, Huo Haoshen and Huo Haoli have both come here this year, and Huo Haoshi's wife is pregnant. There are so few workers now. Do what you can, and if you can't finish, just leave it at that. Take it slow.
"Okay, okay, big brother, is that all you want to say? If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now." She still had to go back to take care of Li Huan. Li Huan's morning sickness had been particularly severe lately, and she really couldn't stand the smell of any meat. There was nothing she could do, so her family could only prepare her portion with plain water first before starting to cook for the others. Now that it was still early, she wanted to go back and see if Li Huan had finished eating, and she also needed to prepare lunch.
"There's something you need to tell your family. Ruan Ruan is pregnant. They just found out. Since you're getting married, it won't be convenient for her to come back. Okay, I've told you. You can go ahead and do your work. I'll hang up now."
After finishing his business, he slammed the phone down, not giving Huo Yue a moment's rest. He knew that Huo Yue would be very excited to hear the news of Ruan Ruan's pregnancy and would ask her all sorts of questions on the phone. He couldn't answer her questions anyway, so he hung up. No one was wasting anyone's time.
