The whole family went out early in the morning. Except for the guard on the sentry post who noticed it, the three generations of the Huo family, grandparents and grandchildren, all wore military medals on their chests.
No one else in the compound knew about this.
But it was just past dinner time, and there were still quite a lot of people gathered in groups of three or four at the gate of the compound.
I heard the guard's full voice: "Hello, Chief!"
Several military dependents nearby all looked over subconsciously.
With just one glance, the smiles of the people who were chatting and laughing just now froze on their faces in an instant.
Those who can live here are not ordinary military dependents, and naturally know what it means to wear so many military medals.
Seeing how flushed Mr. Huo's face was, could it be that his family had gone to participate in some important event?
"What day is today?" A well-dressed woman suddenly frowned and asked.
The rest of the people were confused, "It's just an ordinary day."
There are still several days until New Year's Day.
The person asking the question certainly knew that New Year's Day was still several days away, she was just a little confused.
"Has anyone heard that there will be a celebration or commendation meeting before New Year's Day?"
Everyone shook their heads: "No, we haven't heard of it either."
Generally, things like commendation meetings would be notified about a month in advance.
Although the Huo family has been growing rapidly in recent years, everyone is speculating privately.
The next top military official may very well be Huo Yu!
But with so many senior leaders living in the compound, it was impossible that only the Huo family was notified.
But it is an indisputable fact that the three generations of the Huo family are well-dressed and each of them wears military medals.
For a moment, everyone present had different thoughts.
Those who were on good terms with the Huo family were in a pretty good mood. After all, the Huo family was moving up a level, which was a win-win for them.
The expressions of the remaining few people were not so good.
Especially the Yu family, which has never gotten along well with the Huo family.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her intentionally or unintentionally, Zhang Yaqin's face immediately darkened.
"I remembered that I have something else to do at home, so I won't go out today. You guys have fun."
After saying this, he didn't care about everyone's reaction and went back to the compound with his waist twisted.
Zhang Yaqin has always spoken and acted in this way, and everyone is used to it.
Just at this moment, several old men came out of the compound.
At their age, there is no such thing as twists and turns.
Look, I see Grandpa Huo, who is dressed like a peacock.
Lao Wang and Lao Li asked immediately, "What did you do today? We looked for you all morning but couldn't find you."
After saying that, he clicked his tongue twice, "Look at how cocky you are, could it be that the big boss invited you for tea?"
"I guessed half right. He did go to have tea."
"Are you really drinking tea?" This really surprised Lao Wang and Lao Li.
Why would this big boss invite Old Huo's family over for tea for no reason?
Just when the two were confused, Grandma Huo gave the old man a look that asked, "Are you sick?"
"It's almost done. What would it be like if someone heard it?"
After being glared at by Grandma Huo, the old man put away his joking expression, but the words he said were still quite provocative.
"Alright, alright, I won't tease you two anymore. I'm going to have tea with my granddaughter-in-law today."
"Here, this is wedding candy, and this is the invitation. My third son will hold a banquet at noon in the auditorium of the family compound on New Year's Day. You two should remember to pack the red envelopes thicker."
After saying that, he quickly waved his hand and said, "Stop, I won't talk to you anymore. I was so happy today that I drank two more glasses. Now my brain is still dizzy."
Lao Wang and Lao Li looked at each other, and finally showed a speechless expression.
When Lao Wang took the invitation and wedding candy, he snorted coldly.
"You'll easily get beaten if you talk like that, do you know that?"
Old Li raised his chin and motioned them to look at the military dependents not far away.
"You should be prepared if you are dressed like this."
"In my opinion, there might be some earth-shattering gossip coming out of the compound this afternoon—"
