Grandpa Fan still felt uneasy, so he waved his hand, telling the younger generation to keep making a fuss at home. He had to go out and call Fan's father to ask what was going on.
Otherwise, I'll never feel at ease.
Tickets for such a large item aren't easy to come by; we mustn't cause any trouble.
Mr. Fan was busy working in his office when he heard someone call him to answer the phone. He quickly responded and hurriedly picked up the receiver. On the other end of the line, Mr. Fan's grandfather's booming voice came through: "You brat, what's the deal with those two tickets?"
"dad……"
Fan's father instinctively covered the microphone. My goodness, the microphone's soundproofing wasn't very good either. He's old enough to be a grandfather, and his father still has to call him "brat" and lecture him. Has he no shame...?
He glanced around the room, trying to escape his own gaze, then slowly moved closer to the corner of the room. Hmph, don't think he didn't see their suppressed laughter.
Grandpa Fan was already yelling, "Hey kid, what do you want? Say something..."
Fan's father pressed his brow hard: "Dad, didn't the letter say it was a gift from your eldest grandson..."
"Nonsense. No matter how capable my grandson is, he's only just been noticed by some people. I should be grateful if they're willing to transfer him to S City. There's no such thing as a free lunch. Do you think I'm too old to think straight?"
Fan's father said helplessly, "Why would I lie to you? This was for Yunyan's wedding. Xiao Fan got it as a favor. Yunyan owed his sister a favor and gave it to you as a gift, since you've worried a lot about his wedding. My family has also gotten a set now, so don't worry, it's all done properly..."
Grandpa Fan was silent for a while, and just when Fan's father thought he was about to hang up, he suddenly said, "My granddaughter is so promising..."
Then she changed the subject: "Hmph, my grandchildren are all good kids, but you parents are so irresponsible. If your mother and I find out you've done anything stupid again, let me tell you, my boxwood cane isn't just for show..."
Before Fan's father could retort, the sound of the phone being slammed down came from the other end...
Brahma Father...
Silence is golden.
Facing the gossipy glances from his colleagues in the room, Fan's father forced a smile: "Old people get old, their tempers just get a little bad..."
The moment he left the house, a burst of laughter erupted behind him.
What could Brahma do? What else could he do?
Back in the office, a colleague casually asked, "Who called?"
The helplessness of a middle-aged man vanished instantly, replaced by a spirited demeanor. He tried to keep his tone calm and avoid showing off: "Oh, it's just my dad. My son's eldest grandson is getting married, and the old couple used all their best things to help with the arrangements. Yunyan is so filial; he got vouchers for a washing machine and a refrigerator, just like the ones we recently bought. My dad panicked, so he called to ask..."
Wow, this seemingly insignificant display of wealth actually made everyone in the room envious.
"Old Fan, I'm also missing one of these at home. If you happen to have any good deals like this, think of us colleagues..."
"That's right, oh my, having these two things at home makes things so much easier..."
"You men are alright, but you don't know what we women are like. After finishing our work, we still have to rush home to do laundry, cook, and take care of the elderly and children. Oh my, it's really exhausting..."
"Then you'll have to get a washing machine..."
