Chapter 515 (Page 1/2)
Huo Yichen lowered his eyes and looked at the ground. Huo Qinghuan sighed and pulled Huo Qingchen to sit down.
"Chenchen, are you afraid of your uncle? Why don't you answer when your uncle talks to you..."
Huo Yichen shook his head and waved his hands nervously, speaking incoherently, "No... No, little uncle, I'm not..."
Huo Qinghuan gently patted Huo Yichen's shoulder and said earnestly, "Little boy, relax a little. This is not school. There's no need to be so nervous."
Hearing this, Huo Yichen suddenly stood up and stammered, "I... I'm not nervous!"
At this time, Huo Yixin also noticed her cousin's nervousness, but she couldn't understand why her cousin would be nervous when meeting strangers, and why he was still so nervous when meeting his uncle? She really didn't understand why he was so afraid of adults.
So, Huo Yixin comforted him, "Brother Chen, don't be afraid. Although my uncle is tall and very strong, he won't hit anyone casually."
However, Huo Qinghuan turned around, smiled at his pretty and lovely niece, and said jokingly, "Xinxin, how do you know that your uncle doesn't hit people? But your uncle did hit people in southern Yunnan, and he was a bad guy!"
"Brother Chen is not a bad guy."
Huo Yichen nodded stupidly, "Uncle, I'm not a bad guy, don't hit me."
Huo Qinghuan laughed in anger. Did he look like a bad guy who liked to beat up children? Second Brother's son was timid and cowardly, and he didn't know who he looked like. His temperament was nothing like Second Brother's.
My parents told me that among the three brothers, the second brother was the most mischievous and the most daring when he was young.
"Chenchen, my uncle won't hit anyone. Don't hide next time you see me, especially at school."
"Got it, little uncle. I'm going to go next door to watch Brother An An paint."
Huo Qinghuan smiled and said, "Go ahead!"
Huo Yichen ran to the next door. Huo Yixin pestered Huo Qinghuan, looking up curiously and asking, "Uncle, were you fighting with the bad guys in southern Yunnan? Why were you fighting?"
Why did they fight? Huo Qinghuan fell into memories, his thoughts drifting back to the year he first went to the countryside.
That day, he and Xie Yan took advantage of the lunch break to go to the mountain to collect herbs, but unexpectedly discovered that a group of people went up the mountain to steal wood.
He immediately asked Xie Yan to go down the mountain to inform the captain, while he stayed behind to monitor the thieves.
However, Xie Yan was too nervous and accidentally fell down the slope, which alarmed the thieves.
When the thieves learned they were planning to report the incident, they flew into a rage and rushed towards them, picking up a small piece of wood. Seeing this, Huo Qinghuan picked up a piece of wood and started fighting with the thieves. Eventually, the fight attracted the attention of the educated youth who were living down the mountain.
Fortunately, Huo Qinghuan was quite strong and did not suffer much damage, but if his elder brother had not given him the pill, he would probably have died long ago.
He never dared to tell his family about this matter, and just mentioned it as a joke to his nephews and nieces.
Looking back now, he couldn't help but feel scared when thinking about it, and he really didn't want to continue talking about this past event.
He pretended to be stupid and changed the subject, "Xinxin, I heard that you are the study committee member of your class?"
Huo Yixin replied with a look of annoyance: "Yes, I want to be the class monitor, and the teacher chose me as the study committee member because I am a girl.
Alas, our class monitor is a boy. I don’t know why the teacher is biased towards boys.”
Huo Qinghuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his niece didn't bring up the past anymore. He jokingly said, "How can the teacher be biased towards boys? Your brother still didn't become the class monitor."

Huo Yixin nodded and said, "My brother didn't become the class monitor because he didn't want to be one. The teacher asked him to be the study committee member, but he refused."
"Oh? So this is why Wenwen didn't become a work leader!" Huo Qinghuan said with sudden enlightenment.
"Yes, my brother said he wanted to be a scientist and didn't plan to be a teacher when he grew up, so he had no interest in managing students and naturally didn't want to be a class leader," Huo Yixin explained.
Huo Qinghuan couldn't help laughing after hearing this. He really didn't expect that the little guy Huo Yiwen had so many ideas of his own. He was even unhappy about the teacher asking him to be a class leader.
After dinner, Huo Qingci looked at Huo Yichen and asked softly, "Chenchen, do you want to sleep here, or let your uncle take you back?"
Huo Yichen blinked, looked at his uncle beside him, then turned to look at his uncle, and answered cautiously: "Uncle, I don't want to sleep here. I want to go back with my uncle."
Huo Qingci nodded and said gently, "Okay, then let your uncle take you back later. I'll go see your navy brother off now."
Huo Qingci said to Huo Qinghuan, "Qinghuan, I'll give you the bicycle key. You can take Yichen home later."
Huo Qinghuan nodded, "I understand, big brother."
Huo Qingci added, "You ride your bike to take Yining back, and I'll take Haijun back to the dormitory on foot."
"good."
At this time, Lin Man came out of the room, carrying a large bag. She looked at Zhang Haijun tenderly, her eyes full of concern and reluctance.
Then, she handed the bag to Zhang Haijun and said with a smile, "Hainan, there are two new sets of clothes and a pound of candy in here. Take it back and put it in the dormitory. Come back with An An when you are free in the future."
Zhang Haijun took the bag, his heart filled with emotion. He knew that these things were specially prepared by Lin Man for him, and this thoughtfulness made him feel extremely warm.
He said to Lin Man gratefully, "Thank you, Auntie. I will take good care of myself." Jun took the bag and bowed to Lin Man, "Thank you, Auntie Man."
"Okay, it's getting late, let Uncle Huo take you home!"
Huo Qingci put his arm around Zhang Haijun's shoulders and said, "Let's go. Come over for dinner when you're free."
Huo Qingci sent Zhang Haijun back to the dormitory, and Huo Qinghuan was also preparing to take Huo Yichen home. Lin Man brought two bags of pears and two bags of snacks and placed them on the coffee table.
"Qinghuan, you and Yichen each get a bag of fruit and snacks."
Huo Qinghuan was so embarrassed that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Sister-in-law, I'm not a child anymore. Chenchen can take one portion, and the rest can be left for An'an and the others."
"There are some more at home. Take these back. If you don't want to eat them, give them to Rourou."
Huo Qinghuan held his forehead with his hand. Oh no, how could he forget about his younger sister? "Okay, thank you, sister-in-law. We'll go back now."
Huo Qingci lent one of the old bicycles in his home to Huo Qinghuan, and Huo Qinghuan rode the bicycle that was always shaking to take Huo Yichen home.
As soon as they arrived at the downstairs of the family compound, Huo Yichen jumped off the back of the bicycle and said, "Uncle, don't get on. I can walk by myself."
How could Huo Qinghuan agree to let Huo Yichen go home alone?
He quickly grabbed Huo Yichen's arm and said anxiously, "Yichen, don't leave in such a hurry! Did you forget the fruit and snacks your aunt gave you? It's pitch black in the hallway here, it's not very safe. I'd better take you upstairs."
