481 [Huo Xiufen's marriage]

Huo Yaowen said that he finally dispelled the idea of some board members wanting to continue to develop real estate!

In fact, he didn't disagree in his heart, or he didn't want to continue to develop land to make money, but he wanted to wait a few years before developing.

Especially in recent years, the Lands Department has gradually reduced the amount of official land auctioned, and the three vacant plots of land under Hutchison Whampoa are even more valuable!

Therefore, instead of cooperating with others to develop it now, it is better to wait for a while, wait for the real estate in Aberdeen to be completed and sold, and then develop it independently.

After the meeting, the directors dispersed one by one, and Huo Yaowen just returned to his office when he received a call from Davide, who said that the headhunter had already contacted and communicated with Ma Shimin, and the other party seemed to be interested in coming to work at Hutchison Whampoa, but it had not yet been determined, but the probability of recruiting him was still very high.

When Huo Yaowen heard the news, he was immediately overjoyed, he was about to close the Whampoa Dockyard in Hung Hom, West Kowloon, and urgently needed an experienced real estate manager.

Now the general manager of Hutchison has been doing a good job recently, but it is always the person supported by Qi Dezun, who has just settled in the company and eliminated some non-performing assets in order to integrate resources, so it is not good to directly clean up this group of old people.

Now that Hutchison's assets are almost integrated, it's time to clean them up.

……

In the evening, Huo Yaowen drove home.

After parking the car, as soon as I walked into the door, I saw that the house was very lively, and the third uncle Huo Chengguang and his cousin Huo Xiufen were sitting on the sofa, chatting with Grandma and Huo's father and mother.

"Daddy, hug!"

Suddenly, a small figure swooped over.

"Good daughter. ”

Huo Yaowen looked at his daughter Huo Shuyu, who was as delicate as a doll, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and happily squatted down and hugged her into his arms.

At this time, Xiaohu, who was following Xiaobao, also walked over, and when he saw his sister being held by his father, his expression seemed to be a little low. Seeing this, Huo Yaowen also squatted down with a smile and hugged his son again.

One left and one right, the two little ones are quite heavy now.

Hearing the movement, Grandma and the others on the sofa also looked at it.

Grandma said: "Yaowen, you came just in time, your third uncle and Xiufen are here." ”

"Third Uncle. ”

Huo Yaowen walked over with the two little guys in his arms and said hello to Huo Chengguang.

"Good. ”

Huo Chengguang has not had much contact with Huo Yaowen, and this nephew is not what it used to be, so it is inevitable that he will be a little restrained.

Anna looked at the children in her husband's arms, and also came over and said, "Xiaobao Xiaohu, Dad just came back, don't disturb Dad and Grandma chatting." ”

After saying that, he took the two little ones away.

Seeing this situation, Huo Yaowen glanced at Grandma, then at his father and mother next to him, and roughly guessed that the third uncle should have something to look for him.

Just thinking about it, his father Huo Chengcai said: "Yaowen, your third uncle came to the door this time mainly for Xiufen's marriage. ”

"Xiufen's marriage?"

Huo Yaowen was stunned for a moment, and then turned his head to look at his cousin Huo Xiufen. In his impression, this little cousin has always been very introverted and very shy in her speech, if she hadn't been exercising in the foundation for a few years, she would probably blush when talking to strangers, but she didn't expect that she would be getting married after not seeing her for a few months.

Being stared at by her cousin all the time, Huo Xiufen blushed, lowered her head and was silent.

Huo Chengguang, who knows his daughter's temperament, also took the initiative to say: "It's like this Yaowen, Xiufen has dragged a boy before, I have seen it a few times, and the impression is very good, I think Xiufen is also older, and when she reaches the age of marriage, it just so happens that the man's parents also want the two to get married as soon as possible, so I came over to ask your grandma's opinion." ”

Among the direct relatives of the Huo family in Hong Kong, there are only two people of the same generation as Huo Yaowen, except for Huo Yaozu of the eldest uncle's family, and Huo Xiufen of the third uncle's family.

Huo Yaozu has little contact with Huo Yaowen, except for the New Year's holidays, he rarely meets in private, but Huo Xiufen has been living with Zhang Wanjun before, and then worked in the foundation for a few years, and the relationship with Huo Yaowen is quite close, so he is very concerned about his cousin's marriage.

Huo Yaowen asked, "This is a good thing, who is Xiufen's boyfriend?"

Without waiting for the third uncle to open his mouth, Grandma said first: "It's called Chen Guangyuan, his parents run a tea restaurant, and Xiufen is a colleague." ”

"Chen Guangyuan?" The name is a little familiar, Huo Yaowen frowned and thought about it, looked at his cousin and said, "Xiufen, is it Director Chen of the foundation." ”

"Hmm. Huo Xiufen nodded softly.

"It's him. Huo Yaowen suddenly realized: "If it's him, it's pretty good." ”

Huo's mother asked curiously, "Awen, have you seen Xiufen's boyfriend?"

"I've met a few times before, and I'm a director of the Education Charity Foundation. ”

The year before last, Zhang Chengyi resigned from the position of director of the foundation due to physical reasons, and it happened that Huo Yaowen had been accompanying Anna in the UK to give birth, and when the foundation was seriously short of people, Luo Qiaozhen recruited five or six directors to be responsible for the operation of the foundation, and Chen Guangyuan was one of them.

Later, when Huo Yaowen returned to Hong Kong to inspect the foundation, he met Chen Guangyuan a few times, and his appearance was average, but his temperament was still very good.

From Luo Qiaozhen's mouth, I learned that this person is a top student who graduated from the Department of Economics of Oxford University in the United Kingdom, and has been working in the Kowloon Stock Exchange.

Hearing Huo Yaowen talk about Chen Zhiyuan's situation, Grandma said happily: "So this kid is still very good! A high-achieving student who graduated from Oxford University in the United States, Xiufen, why didn't you say it just now." ”

"I..."

Huo Xiufen said embarrassedly: "I don't feel like there's anything to say." ”

Huo Chengguang said: "This child is more shy, don't mind the second aunt." ”

"It's fine. ”

Grandma waved her hand, how could she not know Xiufen's temperament, and opened her mouth and said: "We must be happy about Xiufen's marriage, since you have decided as a father, then arrange it as soon as possible, and if you need anything, go directly to Yaowen." ”

Huo Chengguang hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, there is nothing missing, I brought Xiufen here this time, I just wanted to come and tell my second aunt about her marriage, and I will go to my uncle's house tomorrow to say it." ”

Although the eldest grandfather Huo Zongming is not as good as before, he has opened a number of pawn shops on Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories in recent years, in order to take care of the third nephew, he handed over a pawnshop on Hong Kong Island to Huo Chengguang to take care of, and now the third uncle is also a small boss, and his cousin Huo Xiufen also has a job, and his economic situation has always been very good.

Huo Yaowen said: "Third uncle, you are going to see the outside, Xiufen is my sister, she will definitely help me as an elder brother when she marries, just say what you need from me." ”

shirked a few times, seeing that the second aunt's family was so enthusiastic, Huo Chengguang did not refuse again, and nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, Awen, I will definitely look for you if you need it." ”

chatted for a while, and when it came to dinner, Grandma originally wanted to leave Huo Chengguang and Huo Xiufen down for dinner, but they shirked something and drove back by themselves.

At six o'clock in the evening, the family sat around the dining table to eat.

Huo's mother pointed out Huo Tingting from time to time that Xiufen was going to get married, speaking of which Xiufen was two years younger than Tingting, but now her sister is about to get married, but Huo Tingting doesn't even have a boyfriend.

I didn't think there was anything before, but now Huo's mother sees that Huo Xiufen is about to get married, and she also begins to care about her daughter's marriage.

"Mom, aren't you bothered, what about eating!" Huo Tingting listened to the headache, quickly pulled a few mouthfuls of food, and turned upstairs angrily.

Looking at the figure of the younger sister leaving, Huo Mu frowned and scolded: "This girl, how did you talk to your mother!"

"Mom, don't worry about my sister's marriage. ”

In his opinion, the younger sister is only twenty-five years old, and she is not particularly anxious to get married.

"How can you not be in a hurry, you will be 26 years old in a few months, and you will be an old girl in the past!"

"You also said that it was in the past. Huo Yaowen put a chopstick dish in his mother's bowl and said: "Now that college students are twenty-three or fourteen years old, it is normal to work for a few years and then get married. ”

"But it's been more than two years since your sister graduated, and it would be good if she found a partner and got married in a few years, but now she doesn't even have a boyfriend ......"

Listening to his mother's broken thoughts, Huo Yaowen glanced at Anna helplessly, and no longer persuaded anything, and ate by himself.
