Chapter 70: Events of the Year (1/2)



The person who came was Dong Lihua.

Feeling the other person's gaze, Jiang Si also raised her eyes to look at Guo Dian.

Perhaps out of professional habit, during the few seconds of staring at each other, Jiang Si subconsciously used her eyes as a pen to record the other person's organ contours and facial features.

Judging from appearance alone, this man's features are 40% to 50% similar to those of Huo's father and the old man.

However, starting from Huo's father's generation, the Huo family has basically been composed entirely of men, and most of them have sacrificed their lives for the country.

At present, apart from Huo's father, only Huo's fourth uncle remains in Beijing.

Therefore, Jiang Si guessed that this person was most likely a cousin of Huo's father.

If she had to say who looked like her, she felt that this person looked more like someone else.

Before Jiang Si could form any idea, the other party started calling for help.

"Uncle, aunt, cousin-in-law——"

After saying hello to everyone, Dong Lihua finally set her sights on Jiang Si.

No matter how reluctant she was, she had to admit the fact at this moment.

The third brother has a really good eye for choosing a wife!

If Ting Tao could also find a daughter-in-law with such a family background, why would he worry about not being able to climb to the position of director?

Even everything about the Huo family did not require him to plan so painstakingly.

"Is this the third son's daughter-in-law? She's really pretty."

Before going out in the morning, Mr. Huo had already informed the two elders.

So Grandma Huo didn't have much reaction to her arrival. After all, she was just her aunt, and it wouldn't be nice to say too much.

When she asked about it, Grandma Huo introduced Jiang Si to her with a loving face.

"This is your aunt's daughter."

It turns out they are really cousins.

Jiang Si nodded and called the other party "cousin".

"Oh, that's great."

"By the way, cousin, when are they going to have their wedding banquet? I have to come over to have a drink and have some fun."

Before Huo Qi could respond, the old man glared at Dong Lihua unhappily.

"Okay, I'll let you know when there's good news, but why do you keep asking for leave every few days?"

As he spoke, he pointed to the slogans with red characters on a white background on the wall of the family compound.

"Now all units are working on [promoting revolution and production], so aren't you afraid that others will report you for not having a high level of ideological awareness and accusing you of slacking off in revolutionary production?"

"Uncle, this is not a small matter."

Dong Lihua's expression froze, but she did not forget to make up for herself.

"I just miss you and your aunt because I haven't visited you for a long time."

"Your aunt and I are fine, you've seen it, so hurry back."

“…”

If she had heard this under normal circumstances, Dong Lihua would have replied.

But this time it won’t work. Yesterday she patted her chest and promised Tingtao that she would take care of this matter.

If he left in disgrace now, Ting Tao would definitely suffer a great loss when the family business was divided.

After all, this was the child she had nursed for several years, and Dong Lihua couldn't bear to let him suffer this injustice.

"Cousin, I heard that you want to divide the family property among the children, right?"

"That's right. We had already agreed on the division of the family several years ago. As long as all the children in the family have started their own families, we will separate."

"Then each family will live their own lives, and your elder brother and I will be able to relax a little."

Dong Lihua thought to herself, then you are really selfish.

As a father, how can you just care about your own happiness?

Apart from anything else, the Huo family still has several older grandsons. It would be too irresponsible to give up at this time!
