"Actually, it doesn't need to be that complicated. The 10th National Youth Games will be held in Beijing next Saturday."
"In addition to students from various universities, some workers from state-owned factories will also participate in the competition."
"Our sports bureau is also sending two teams over. Third sister-in-law, why don't you come with me?"
"Let me tell you, there are about 1,500 participants this time, plus the spectators, so there should be around 5,000 people. That should be enough for you to draw."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Si's eyes immediately lit up.
That's true. Although the college entrance examination has been abolished, there are still quite a few college students from the class of 1965 who are still in school.
That is, you won't learn much in university.
Otherwise, such a large-scale sports meet wouldn't be held.
"Ah, it's so good to be young."
When the topic of the sports meet came up, Yang Meina, one of the table tennis referees, could be seen with excitement.
But her excited and thrilled expression didn't seem to others at all.
The fourth brother and his wife exchanged a glance, feeling that something was off, but they couldn't quite put their finger on it.
Finally, the fourth brother turned his gaze to his second brother.
Huo Erge glanced at his bewildered fourth brother, then at his wife who was getting more and more excited as she talked, and felt utterly helpless.
If he remembered correctly, the third brother called last time and said he would be back before the end of the month.
He wasn't sure which day it would be.
However, it doesn't matter when the third brother comes back; what matters is that you invite your third brother's wife to watch the game.
The participants were a group of vibrant college students and promising young people from various factories.
This...this might not be a good idea?
At that moment, he suddenly remembered that his wife had mentioned some time ago that a winter swimming event had been added to this year's sports meet.
With that thought in mind, Brother Huo's vigilant radar instantly activated.
But he couldn't say it outright at this point.
After trying to signal to his wife for a while, he could only cough several times when she didn't react at all.
Yang Meina reacted immediately, "What's wrong? Did you choke?"
No, it's not—
"No, why are you coughing! You're spitting all over my face. You'd better sit down a little further away."
After saying that, Yang Meina gave him a reproachful look.
The meaning was clear: we sisters-in-law were having a great chat, could you please not interrupt?
Just as Huo Erge was worrying about what excuse to use to interrupt her, Jiang Si's voice suddenly rang out.
"Second sister-in-law, will it affect your work if I go with you?"
Without a second thought, Brother Huo replied, "Yes!"
"What do you mean by 'knowing'?"
Yang Meina was really angry this time, and she glared at Huo Erge.
I'll tell you later.
Then he smiled and replied to Jiang Si, "Don't listen to your second brother, he's just joking with you."
Brother Huo wanted to say another word of advice, but when he looked up, he met the old man's wide-open eyes.
Grandma Huo didn't glare at him, but her eyebrows were already twisted so tightly they looked like a pretzel.
Second Brother Huo: "..."
Well, he shouldn't have said that.
He stopped talking, but Yang Meina wasn't going to let him off the hook. She waited until the chat between the sisters-in-law ended.
After returning to her room, she complained, "What was wrong with you just now? Why were you blinking at me like that?"
"So you saw it!"
"I'm not blind, how could I not see it?"
She just couldn't understand it. "How did you become like this?"
"I...I've changed?"
"Yes, you've changed!"
Yang Meina said with a pained expression, "My third sister-in-law was so good to us. She didn't take a single penny of the 30,000 yuan she received and left it all to the Huo family's descendants."
"We took such a big advantage of her, what's wrong with helping her out?"
"Didn't your grandparents say that we should fully support her work? Even your two sons know to side with their aunt."
"And you, you're always dragging us three down..."
As Yang Meina was speaking, she looked up and realized that the man who had just been sitting opposite her was gone.
"No, I'm talking to you, why are you opening the window?"
"Let me see if it's snowing outside."
Yang Meina was stunned for a moment. What did this mean?
She said angrily, "I'm talking to you, why are you tearing off the snow like that?"
"What else could it be? He was wronged."
Brother Huo sighed heavily, and then explained why he had interrupted her.
Upon realizing that she had made a mistake, Yang Meina immediately deflated.
"It shouldn't be... right?"
"My third brother is not a stingy person."
Seeing his wife's timid and cowardly appearance, what could Huo Erge say?
Alright, even if my third brother is angry, he wouldn't go so far as to hit his own sister-in-law.
However, whether he will be polite to his older brother is another matter.
"Go to sleep, maybe I'm overthinking it."
Upon hearing this, Yang Meina patted her chest, "That's right, I told you you were overthinking it..."
Meanwhile, on the other side...
After washing up, Guan Xue lay back in bed. Seeing her silly son staring blankly at the newspaper without saying a word, she waved her hand in front of him.
"What are you thinking about, so seriously?"
"Honey, I think I know why I felt something was off earlier."
Guan Xue had almost forgotten what had just happened, but both she and her husband were the type of people who didn't talk much and had a particularly long reaction time.
