It was off the mark. Huo Haowen felt that sometimes he really couldn't keep up with his father's train of thought.
What are you thinking about?
He just said he would take him back to his hometown, but then he changed his mind. I have never seen such a fickle man.
An expressionless face stared straight out the window: "No, don't try to drive me away."
"Dad, I know what you're thinking. Aren't you just afraid that I'll steal your wife?"
"But I want to tell you something. A gentleman doesn't take away what others like. Since you and your stepmother are planning to live a good life together, I definitely can't do anything that goes against ethics and morality. Just treat your stepmother well in the future. But if you treat her badly and make her cry, then I... I won't tell you. You know it, Dad."
This arrogant little expression was imitated perfectly by Jiang Mengning.
Huo Jinyan snorted.
Driving with concentration.
He didn't mean to force his son to get out of the car.
"Humph, you little brat who hasn't even grown all his hair yet, I won't take you seriously."
As the leader of a group, it would be useless and ridiculous for him to be controlled by a little brat.
This little brat wouldn't even frown if he got a boost.
"By the way, I heard from your new teacher that you're dating someone at school, right?"
The temperature in the car suddenly rose, and Huo Haowen's face turned red.
"What...what? Who's dating? I don't..."
When I suddenly received my father's gaze, my anger suddenly subsided.
He seemed too embarrassed to explain himself and his face turned even redder.
Huo Jinyan couldn't bear to look at such behavior.
A voice without any emotion came: "You are just a little kid! How dare you do this? It's outrageous."
"Huo Haowen, you're a boy, so I have to be much stricter with you. I must warn you about this matter. You're not allowed to bully female classmates outside, and you're not allowed to hold hands or kiss... ahem, don't mess around. Don't act like a second-rate person. You're a descendant of a soldier, and you must be upright."
Huo Haowen was so embarrassed that he explained in a low voice, "I didn't do anything wrong."
"Well, write me a 5,000-word self-criticism later."
"ah!"
He knew that his father had bad intentions and was waiting for him here.
Humph, that’s too much.
Huo Jinyan glanced at his son out of the corner of his eye, a smug smile appearing on the corner of his lips.
You little brat, your hair isn't even fully grown yet, how can you fight with your father?
There was no conversation along the way, Huo Haowen pretended to be dead.
He was afraid that if he said something wrong again, the 5,000-word review would become 10,000 words.
Driving to Huojiagou is faster than taking the train, but the road conditions are not very good and it still takes seven or eight hours.
Huo Jinyan was thinking about Jiang Mengning, and he didn't stop except when his son needed to urinate.
I drove from Qingyuan City to Niujiao Town in one go and was very tired.
Fortunately, he arrived at a familiar place and he breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s much faster to go back from town.
"Are you hungry? What do you want to eat? I'll get it for you."
Huo Jinyan would not have stopped the car if he hadn't taken into consideration the little one in the car.
Huo Haowen had been hungry for seven or eight hours and was almost unable to bear it.
There would definitely be nothing delicious to eat when we get home, so I said, "Dad, why don't you pack some food so that my mom and sister can eat when we get home."
Huo Jinyan nodded, turned off the engine and got out of the car.
He was very familiar with Niujiao Town. When he was a child, he often came to the town alone to make money.
He could tell where every corner was with his eyes closed.
In the past one or two years, reforms have been taking place everywhere, but the wind of reform does not seem to have reached Niujiao Town yet. There has not been much change here compared to before.
When we arrived at the nearby state-owned restaurant, it was around three o'clock in the afternoon. The food had not been prepared yet, and there was not much left from lunch.
There was only one roast duck and ten meat buns.
Huo Jinyan wanted them all.
"Wait, is there anything to eat here? I'm starving."
Just as Huo Jinyan was about to pay, a man dressed in colorful clothes appeared beside him.
He took a quick glance and saw that it was a man, well-built, but dressed in a way that was… he had no comment.
The waiter in the restaurant blushed again.
When she first saw a soldier who was good-looking, she blushed because she was thin-skinned.
Now another good-looking man comes. Is she lucky today to meet two at once?
When he spoke, he was much gentler than usual.
"There's only one roast duck and ten meat buns left, but they've all been bought by this soldier. We don't have anything else to eat right now. If you want something, you'll have to wait another hour and a half for it to be ready."
If Zhou Qihuai hadn't had his own qualities to support him, he would have wanted to cry to the sky.
God knows how difficult it was for him along the way.
Having a troublesome sister at home will shorten his life by ten years.
Zhou Qihuai had no idea that his sister had gone to such a place. It was only when he went to the store to look for his sister and didn't see her that his sister's father told him.
He was almost scared to death when he learned that his sister had run to the remote countryside alone, regardless of her own safety, for the old man's daughter.
This was the eighties!
There is no surveillance on the road and the security is poor. How dare such a beautiful girl run alone? What's the difference between this and running naked on the street!
At that time, he really wanted to curse, but who should he curse? He didn't even know where the old man was, and he had no place to vent his anger.
I had no choice but to hurry up and buy a ticket for the nearest train to catch up with my sister.
What happened on the train was an experience he never wanted to mention again in his life. In order to travel faster, he bought a hard seat.
He tolerated the dirt, the mess, and the shabbiness; it didn't matter; he could tolerate it.
However, he absolutely could not tolerate the fact that the lady sitting next to him urinated and defecated in public even though he knew there was a toilet on the train.
"Sorry, I really can't hold it anymore, the toilet is occupied."
Can a simple sentence cover up what you have done?
Zhou Qihuai was so sad that he wanted to cry but had no tears. He endured the nausea and gave up his hard seat to someone else. He ran to the corner and squatted there for more than ten hours.
My legs were numb from the time I squatted to get off the bus.
Hungry and tired, I finally found a restaurant to buy food, but in the end, there was nothing left.
He felt that he had used up all his good luck by traveling through time, and that he was here to overcome difficulties in this life, not to enjoy happiness.
"Uncle Soldier, that's great! I'm so hungry! Can you share some of your buns with me? Even two would be fine!"
Huo Jinyan frowned as Zhou Qihuai grabbed his arm.
This man doesn't look young either, yet he calls him a soldier...uncle!
uncle!
Humph, you are so presumptuous.
Not only is he being presumptuous, but he also wants to share the buns. Doesn't he look like a fool?
She shook off his hand that was grabbing her arm and said, "Give it to him!"
There was no way. He was a soldier and couldn't just sit there and watch a starving person die without helping him.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you so much. You are worthy of being the People's Liberation Army. We ordinary people are blessed to have you!"
Huo Jinyan: "..."
