Huo Jinyan's prestige in the village is now greater than that of the village chief.
It can be said that as long as he says a word, everyone in the village will give him some face.
Therefore, whenever there was an event in someone's family, whether it was a wedding or a funeral, he would be invited to attend.
This is a respect for him and also a desire to maintain this relationship.
After all, I have an officer relative in the army, so it will definitely be easier to get things done in the future.
Huo Jinyan is not stupid. He can handle the ways of the world and knows whether the other party has good intentions or has other motives.
He will only deal with superficial relationships casually, but he will naturally cherish those who are sincere.
The person in front of him was quite nice to Huo Jinyan. When they were young, he felt sorry for him and secretly gave him a bite to eat. He was very grateful.
"It's okay, Uncle Huo. I came back in a hurry and didn't visit you earlier. It's my fault. I will definitely go to celebrate Grandpa Huo's birthday later."
Uncle Huo was obviously relieved.
"That's good. I was really worried that if I didn't inform you in time today, you would dislike me. Haha, you must come later! Bring your wife and children, the whole family."
"No, no, Uncle Huo, you are too polite."
Uncle Huo was busy at home, so he came to inform Huo Jinyan and hurried back.
When I left, I kept looking back and saying, "Remember, you must come, come with your whole family!"
"You must come!"
Huo Jinyan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll definitely go."
Uncle Huo was relieved and left in a hurry.
After a while, everyone in the village seemed to know the news that Huo Jinyan had returned home, and they all ran to the thatched hut to greet him.
Huo Jinyan had no choice but to talk to them.
But his mind was entirely on his daughter-in-law in the house.
My wife should be waking up by now. There are so many people here, she will definitely not be used to it.
No, we have to find a reason to send these people away.
Villager A said, "Jinyan, I remember not seeing you for a long time. You haven't been home for a few years, right? Is the army really that busy? Oh, and are there any vacancies in your army? What do you think of me?"
Villager B said, "I heard your dainty wife is here too! I haven't seen what she looks like, but I heard she's very beautiful. Is that true? I've been doing business for a year or so, and I've seen at least a hundred, if not a thousand, women. I've even met celebrities. Is your wife any more pretty than a celebrity?"
Villager C said, "I also want to meet our Captain Huo's wife. Why hasn't she come out for so long? Is she shy?"
As we were chatting about the topic, we actually felt like we were secretly competing with each other.
When men are together, those who like to show off love to make comparisons.
Compare status, money earned, women and children, anything that can be boasted about will be compared.
These young and middle-aged men in the village are in their prime. Huo Jinyan came from their village. A peasant became the head of a group. Isn't this definitely someone else's child?
Being nagged so much by my parents, I naturally developed the desire to compete with them.
Every day when I hear my parents talking about Huo Jinyan, I can't help but roll my eyes in dissatisfaction behind their backs.
Therefore, more and more people regard Huo Jinyan as an imaginary enemy and want to compete with him in everything.
I heard that Huo Jinyan's wife is as beautiful as a fairy. How could he have such a good thing all to himself? Naturally, there are people who are not convinced and want to find out the truth!
Huo Jinyan's career has been booming. God has been very kind to him. If the wife he finds is also a beauty picked out of thousands, then he will truly be God's own son.
Why does he always run into good things?
But this is impossible. Not everything can be perfect. Even if his career is going well, his love life will definitely not be as he wished.
Yes, his wife is definitely not as pretty as she is said to be, definitely not that pretty.
Huo Jinyan frowned and didn't want to deal with these things.
It's completely meaningless and a waste of his time.
Just as he was about to send the person away, the tightly closed door creaked open.
The sound of the broken door opening and closing was so loud that it attracted everyone present.
Behind the slowly opening door stood a slim and graceful person.
She was wearing a white waist-length dress, with her black hair draped over her shoulders, making her small face look pink and white.
She has a very innocent look, but her big watery eyes seem to have hooks that make people unable to take their eyes away.
Anyone who sees her will have to say, she is a peerless beauty.
Everyone present gasped.
Jiang Mengning leaned casually against the door, biting her pink lips and looking at Huo Jinyan with innocent eyes.
"Husband, come here."
