Huo Minglang was stunned and could hardly believe his ears.
"Mom, my eldest brother has been gone for several days. He is now in the army. How can he come back?"
"Why can't he come back? Didn't he bring Shu Wan back with him during the New Year holidays? He just left, so just ask for a leave." Fang Qin said as a matter of course.
Huo Minglang looked at Fang Qin's matter-of-fact look, and the chill in his heart grew stronger. He suddenly understood why his elder brother felt that way. It was probably because of his mother's attitude that he became a little disappointed, and finally lost hope. Family affection was completely destroyed by her excessive demands.
"Mom, you can't ask for leave casually in the army, and it takes two days to travel from Hai City to our home. Three or four days of leave can't be asked for casually." Huo Minglang said.
"Brother, are you just going to watch your second brother lose his job?" Huo Tianhe said sadly.
Fang Qin couldn't stand her son's sadness. She gritted her teeth and said, "Tianhe's work must be resolved."
Huo Minglang was very confused. "Since the second brother has lost his job, let him continue to look for a new one. Why should the eldest brother come back? He is not the boss."
Huo Tianhe immediately said: "What I said is not right. My elder brother helped me find this job. Now that I have lost my job, he must compensate me with another one."
Huo Minglang was surprised and looked at Fang Qin, "Is what my second brother said true?"
Fang Qin nodded guiltily.
Huo Minglang suddenly felt like laughing. When his second brother got a job in the city, his mother boasted that his second brother was outstanding and was favored by the people in the city, so she insisted on letting him work in the city. She never mentioned the existence of his eldest brother at all, not even in front of him.
He once believed it to be true, but he didn't expect that it was all a lie they made up.
Fang Qin looked at Huo Minglang's horrifying expression and couldn't help but say, "Your second brother is too proud to mention Zhengye. Besides, Zhengye is the eldest brother and should have helped you."
"But mom, aren't you being too partial?"
Huo Minglang finally couldn't help himself and spoke.
Fang Qin was stunned. Seeing this, Huo Tianhe said quickly, "Mom is doing this for our own good. If I hadn't asked my eldest brother to send money back, would you still have money to go to school and college?"
Fang Qin came back to her senses at this moment, and looked at Huo Minglang with a hint of disappointment, "I didn't expect you to miss me so much, Minglang, you disappoint me so much."
Huo Minglang looked at Fang Qin's white hair, and all the words were stuck in his throat. His throat trembled slightly, and he lowered his head and said in a muffled voice: "Mom, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that to you."
Only then did Fang Qin smile with satisfaction.
This time Fang Qin suggested calling Huo Zhengye and asking him to come back. Huo Minglang moved his mouth but said nothing.
Fang Qin took the note with the number to the phone and dialed.
After a few beeps, he learned that the call was for Huo Zhengye, so he quickly notified Huo Zhengye and asked him to answer the phone.
"mom?"
Huo Zhengye's voice sounded a little surprised.
"Zhengye, when did you return to Hai City? Why didn't you tell mom?" Fang Qin's voice sounded particularly intimate through the phone line.
Huo Zhengye's heart sank subconsciously. Every time at this time, Fang Qin would ask something of him.
When he recalled every time he answered the phone, it was always about his brothers. There were no calls asking about his well-being.
Huo Zhengye suppressed his chaotic emotions, did not answer Fang Qin's question, and asked directly:
"Mom, what do you want from me?"
