Huo Changgen was speechless. He said in a low voice, "Can't your aunt come back to visit if she's alright? You're overthinking it."
"You'll find out then, but don't come looking for me. I can't do what she asks for."
After Huo Junshan finished speaking, he pulled Yun Ningyan back.
On the way, Yun Ningyan asked, "What kind of person is your aunt?"
Huo Junshan: "She's a troublemaker! She's good at finding problems, a bit like Aunt Ma, but she's not as stingy."
"Hehe, it'll be so lively at our house when she comes back."
After they returned home and washed up, Huo Junshan held her close as they fell asleep, whispering, "Wife, how about today? I didn't have any yesterday... I was so uncomfortable."
Yun Ningyan: "You think about this all the time, but I'm so sleepy."
Huo Junshan kissed her pink lips: "It's okay, you go to sleep, I'll do mine."
Clouds and mist...
This works?
She really wanted to try.
Huo Junshan's smile widened.
[The process is omitted, I can't post it, you'll have to figure it out yourselves, haha...]
An hour later, Yun Ningyan scratched Huo Junshan's back hard, her voice aggrieved: "Huo Junshan, you lied! I couldn't sleep at all..."
Huo Junshan: "That's right, you can't sleep. If you can sleep like this, how bad must my skills be?"
Clouds and mist!
She was so angry that she didn't want to talk to him and turned her face away from him.
Huo Junshan chuckled and carried the person into the space. Actually, he really wanted to do it there...
But his wife absolutely refused, feeling that it would pollute the space.
I had no choice but to carry the person in to take a bath.
After washing, he carried the person back.
It's getting colder now. Once the first snow falls, it'll be time to start heating the kang (a traditional heated bed).
The next day, Huo Min and Huo Jianshe came here to study again. Huo Min said, "When I study at home, my sisters-in-law keep making me hold the children and look after them. It's so annoying."
Yun Ningyan smiled and said, "It's okay. You can come here. Your third brother and I can explain any questions you don't understand."
Huo Jianshe has been doing well lately. He has almost finished reviewing junior high school math. After doing a few more practice tests, he will be able to look at junior high school physics and chemistry.
Huo Junshan is still studying how to write compositions today. His compositions are very poor, and he is severely unbalanced in his studies.
Several days passed in the blink of an eye, and Huo Jianguo, Huo Jiandang, and Huo Jianjun had returned from the commune.
Li Xiangyun told the two of them to go to the front to eat.
Yun Ningyan noticed that Huo Jianguo and Huo Jiandang didn't look too good, except for Huo Jianjun who had a slight smile on his face.
She whispered to Huo Junshan, "I guess Huo Jianjun succeeded, right? Look how ugly those two look."
Huo Junshan asked, "Who among you has passed?"
Huo Jianjun said excitedly, "Third Brother, it's me! I passed! They told me to get ready and go to work."
Huo Junshan nodded. Huo Jianjun would also be fine. It would be much easier to find a wife if he had a job. His older brothers both had wives. Even if he didn't have a job, he could stay at home.
Li Xiangyun brought out the food and said, "It's good that Jianjun has a job. It will be much easier for him to find a wife in the future. You two older brothers, don't look so down."
Wang Cuihong was unwilling to accept this, so she asked Huo Jianguo, "Jianguo, even the fourth brother succeeded, why didn't you?"
Huo Jianguo remained silent. He had originally had high hopes for this, but it didn't work out.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Wang Cuihong turned to Huo Junshan and said, "Third brother, you see, Jianjun has a job, you have to find a job for your eldest brother too, we still have several children to raise!"
Zhang Hongying remained silent, waiting for her sister-in-law to speak, having already witnessed Yun Ningyan's formidable nature.
Avoid provoking others if possible; always rely on your sister-in-law to stand up for you.
Huo Junshan said coldly, "This job isn't something you can just get on a whim. Besides, I'm not the factory manager of any factory. I can't just give you a job like that."
Wang Cuihong was speechless after being choked by him.
He looked down at the food in his bowl.
Yun Ningyan also found it funny. Why did they act as if he and Huo Junshan owed them something?
They're never satisfied with just taking advantage.
Li Xiangyun: "Alright, let's eat. Shut up, everyone."
She gets a headache every day just from hearing her eldest daughter-in-law speak.
After the family finished their meal, several guests arrived at their home.
right!
The girl I mentioned the other day is Huo Changgen's sister: Huo Changlan.
She and Huo Changlan had two daughters, one named Yao Qingqing and the other Yao Tingting.
Huo Changlan, accompanied by her two daughters, had tears welling up in her eyes when she saw Huo Changgen.
"Second brother! Second brother, I've brought the child back to see you!"
Huo Changgen's eyes also reddened. She never expected to see her sister again. She took their luggage and invited them into the house.
"Xiangyun, hurry up and make some food for your niece and Changlan, they definitely haven't eaten yet!"
Li Xiangyun was speechless, so she went to cook and called her eldest daughter-in-law over: "Cuihong, come and tend the fire."
Li Xiangyun simply made half a pot of noodles for the three of them.
Huo Changlan wanted to lash out at the sight, but then she remembered what she was there for, so she immediately put on a smile and said, "The noodles are good, the noodles are delicious. Qingqing, Tingting, come and eat."
The three of them wolfed down their food.
The whole family sat there, looking at each other.
Huo Changgen spoke first, introducing them one by one: "This is the eldest son, Jianguo; this is the eldest son's wife, Cuihong; their two children are the second son's wife and the third son's wife; these two are the fourth and fifth sons."
Huo Changlan looked at each one, and the Huo brothers all nodded and smiled in acknowledgment.
Yun Ningyan smiled in agreement, and no one spoke.
Li Xiangyun said, "Shall I go and call my older brother and the others? Have them come over?"
Huo Changlan stopped her, saying, "Second sister-in-law, there's no need. We can go tomorrow, it'll be the same."
Huo Changgen chimed in, "Yes, yes, it's getting a bit late. Let's go tomorrow, we'll go together tomorrow."
Yun Ningyan sneered inwardly: Are they determined to take advantage of their family?
Huo Changlan said, "Second Brother, where are we going to stay? We've been walking all this way and we're exhausted."
Li Xiangyun frantically gave him meaningful glances, but Huo Changgen acted as if he couldn't see them. He said, "Third brother's original room isn't empty. You can live in that room. Fifth brother and fourth brother will share a room. Make room for your two cousins."
Huo Jianshe reluctantly moved all his things into his fourth brother's room, where he was perfectly content living alone.
What's the purpose of this aunt I haven't seen in decades coming back?
And so, Huo Changlan and his two daughters settled down.
Huo Junshan took Yun Ningyan back to rest. Huo Changlan asked in confusion, "Junshan, aren't you going to rest? Where are you going so late at night?"
Huo Junshan said coldly and indifferently, "Our house is in the back, of course we're going back to sleep?"
Huo Changlan, unaware that they had bought a large house, smiled and said, "Yes, you should go back and rest!"
