Old Man Huo was holding his grandson with one hand and his granddaughter with the other, wearing old blue cloth clothes, looking like an ordinary grandfather next door, talking to the children with a smile. 【Update.】

"Dad"

"Daddy......."

Secretary Huo and Director Huo hurriedly greeted him and greeted the old man with a look of awe.

Raising his eyes and looking at the two sons, Old Man Huo didn't say much, and when his eyes moved from them to the watch that the two were wearing on their wrists, Old Man Huo immediately frowned.

"Why did you forget this" Secretary Huo suddenly felt a void in his heart, the Rolex gold watch he was wearing on his hand, and the second brother's watch was not bad, it was also a famous watch. The old man was most disgusted with the luxury of his children in his life, and he always required them to be hard and simple. The old watch I wore was bought with a month's salary in the 6s, and it has never been changed in nearly half a century. I was really dizzy today, and I actually ignored this matter, and I should have asked to take off the watch before entering the door.

"Grandpa, grandpa, I want to eat sugar water"

"Grandpa, I want to eat too"

Fortunately, the two children wanted to eat sugar water at this time, and Old Man Huo turned into a kind grandfather in an instant, nodded again and again with a smile, and walked to the kitchen with the children.

By the time Mr. Huo asked the nanny to make sugar water for the children and took them back to the living room, Secretary Huo and Director Huo had already quietly removed the watch on their wrists, and also asked their daughter-in-law to hide all the things that were easy to "irritate" the old man.

"Eat slowly, be careful of choking." Talking to the children with a smile, Old Man Huo touched the children's heads, and then sat down on the sofa next to him.

"It's still over there, sit down."

Glancing at his two sons who were still standing in the living room, the old man hated that iron could not be made of steel.

After answering a sentence, Secretary Huo and Director Huo carefully sat down with the old man.

"Is it another trouble? Say, are you going to let my old face take it out and sell it again? Heng Mei looked at the two sons, and Old Man Huo asked coldly.

"Dad, what did you say, my brother and I came here to see you today, why do you still look at us with old eyes?" Director Huo said very aggrievedly.

"What's the matter? Am I wrong? Old Man Huo stretched out his finger and nodded at him: "Who made a mistake in the documents of the office last time?" It almost turned the sky upside down. How long has it been since you kid forgot about it? If I hadn't sold you this old face to greet you, you would still be sitting where you are

Director Huo's expression was suddenly extremely embarrassed, he did make a big mistake that time, he made a mistake in the date of an important document in the office, and there was almost a big incident. Fortunately, he later begged the old man, and the old man came forward to reluctantly settle the matter, and less than three months have passed since this incident, and the thrill is still fresh in my memory.

Looking at Huo Laoer's embarrassed appearance, the corners of Secretary Huo's mouth turned up slightly, don't look at them as brothers, but Secretary Huo's relationship with this younger brother is definitely not as good as in the eyes of outsiders.

"And you" Who would have thought, the joy in his heart was not a few seconds, and Master Huo's spearhead pointed at him again, only to see him pointing his finger at himself and saying: "What kind of did you do as the secretary of the county party committee?" As the old saying goes, if you don't make decisions for the people, it's better to go home and sell sweet potatoes. You have been in this position for more than two years, but in addition to eating and drinking every day, what benefits have you brought to the people? The brain is still trying to drill into it? Still wondering what kind of deputy mayor you want to be in the city? It's the right thing to get the secretary of the county party committee right first."

The smile instantly turned into stunned and embarrassed, and Secretary Huo drooped his head and didn't dare to refute. And at this time, Director Huo, who had just been embarrassed by the training, suddenly felt happy in his heart, it seems that this old man is really fair, after training, he will train himself again, and neither of the two brothers will be left behind

lowered his eyebrows and let the old man get angry, and then it stopped. Next, Director Huo glanced at Secretary Huo, indicating that it was almost time and that he could come as previously discussed.

"Dad, are you okay lately?"

"Eat well, sleep well, and raise flowers and plants, as long as you two don't get angry with me, I'll be early to see Marx." As soon as Old Man Huo opened his mouth, he said this, and Secretary Huo choked a lot.

By smirking, Secretary Huo nodded again and again, followed the old man's words with a few words of concern, and then said: "Dad, you are an elderly person after all, and you still have to pay attention to this usual physical condition." ”

"Yes, Dad, the weather is a bit abnormal this year, you can pay more attention to your body, and remember to wear more clothes when you are active." Director Huo was beating a side drum on the side.

"My own body knows it myself" Old Man Huo replied stiffly, but no matter what, these two are his sons, and the son cares about himself, and the old man does not show his mood on his face, but he is actually very useful in his heart.

Pretending to care for a few words, the two Huo brothers began to fool, they first talked about the health care of the elderly now, and then asked the daughter-in-law to bring some health care products brought today, so that the old man usually eats more and nourishes more. Then, Secretary Huo mentioned that there is a medical delegation in the province going to Europe to investigate in the next few days, it is said that Europe has a very set of treatment for some old injuries of the elderly, for the health of the old man, he suggested that the old man follow the delegation to go out for a walk, by the way in Europe to recuperate, and treat the old injuries of the body and bones.

"Nonsense" Who thinks, as soon as the words fell, the old man Huo was angry, and stretched out his hand and slapped it on the armrest: "The medical delegation in the province, I, an idler, followed me, didn't I take the public money to do things for my own family?" You are all subordinates of the party and the people, how can you tell you such a thing with such a beginning, I will never agree to this matter?"

"I said Dad, don't be angry" Secretary Huo hurriedly persuaded: "What you said, my second brother and I both understand, you are an old Yu Ministry, with high consciousness, under your teaching, we will not be able to do such a thing, I think so, your old injury is not easy to treat as you get older, this medical delegation to Europe happens to be a good opportunity, and it is normal to go out for treatment according to your level." Of course, the public can never take advantage of it, so we pondered spending our own money to go out for treatment, and following the medical delegation was mainly for the convenience of experts and scholars together. ”

"Yes, yes, Dad, that's what my brother and I mean, don't look at us with old eyes, this is also our filial piety" Director Huo hurriedly followed on the side, which made Old Man Huo stunned.

"Pay for yourself?"

"Yes, yes"

"Don't take advantage of the public?"

"Yes, yes, yes"

"Then I won't go" Who would have thought that Old Man Huo would not get in, and vetoed their suggestion in one bite. At this moment, the two of them were dumbfounded, and they didn't say much under looking at each other.

The old man Huo has big rules, and the men and women in the family stand aside, so the daughter-in-law of the Huo family brothers is not easy to persuade, everyone is staring at each other, and there is no way to take the old man.

"Daddy"

At this moment, there was a sound outside, and the old man Huo, who had a serious expression, actually softened his expression when he heard this voice, and the faces of the Huo brothers changed suddenly, because this voice was no one else, it was their little sister.

"Little swallow, come on, come on" For this daughter, Old Man Huo has a much better attitude than the two sons who are not angry, and when he saw his daughter coming, he greeted her with a smile.

Huo Yan stepped on Gaogen's shoes and entered the house, first said hello to her father, and then saw that her two brothers and sisters-in-law were there, nodded at them with a smile, and then sat down next to Old Man Huo.

"What are you talking about?" Huo Yan is in her thirties this year, but she still looks as young as a girl in her twenties, she sat down and looked at the two brothers on the side, and asked with a grin. But I don't know why, she seems to be a little different from usual today, her face doesn't seem to be very good, and there is a trace of imperceptible bitterness and helplessness in this smile.

"You two careless brothers have bad ideas." Old man Huo stretched out his hand and pointed at Secretary Huo and Director Huo, and told him about the fact that they had just let him follow the medical delegation to Europe to see a doctor, and when he finished speaking, he was very angry and said: "Listen, what you say is fantastic, but in fact, you are not using the privilege in your hand to do things for yourself?" I've been sitting up straight all my life, but I don't want to be poked in the back when I'm old."

Huo Yan nodded yes again and again, and blamed the two brothers for a few words according to the old man's words, seeing Huo Yan's attitude, Secretary Huo and Director Huo both sank, and couldn't help but want to scold. This woman doesn't come early or late, why did she come at this time? makes a decent appearance and pretends to be flattering in front of the old man, in fact, what is the difference between her and herself? On weekdays, they have done no less work to dig up the corners of the country than they do, but now they are sticking green onions in their noses and pretending to be here.

"But Dad, brother, although they didn't arrange this properly, but then again, this piece of filial piety is not easy. Besides, this old wound of yours was left when you went to the countryside, and it has flare-up whenever the weather changes for so many years. In the past, you were in good health and could survive, but now that you are so old, it is not a matter if you survive year after year, just in case...... What can you do with us? As she spoke, Huo Yan burst into tears.

"Weird? Is the sun coming out of the west today? The Huo family brothers were stunned when they saw this scene, their sister has never been a fuel-efficient lamp, where is the time to agree with them on weekdays? But what's going on today? And hadn't she always had a different attitude towards it before? Why did you change your mind all of a sudden?

"Don't cry, little swallow ......." As soon as his daughter shed tears, Old Man Huo's heart softened suddenly, and he quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

After crying a few times, Huo Yan pulled the topic back again: "Dad, the medical conditions in Europe are indeed good, but it is easy to gossip with the medical delegation, even if we pay for it ourselves, it is easy to misunderstand in the eyes of others, don't you say?" ”

Old Man Huo nodded slightly, this was indeed what he was thinking.

As soon as the conversation changed, Huo Yan said again: "It's better like this, I'm going to go to Europe next month to talk about the project, and we can go by ourselves." Anyway, it's your own money, and no matter how good others are, they can't gossip. I arranged it in advance and went over there to find a sanatorium to treat it. By the way, Dad, didn't you say back then that you always wanted to go around abroad and see it? Now that I have retired, I will take this opportunity to recuperate and see more of the scenery abroad, which is also our heart as children."

"This ......." Old Man Huo was a little hesitant, and he didn't make much of a decision for a while.

"Dad... Say yes. Mom is no longer here, but you are my dearest and dearest person, and I don't want you to be a daughter...... I'm begging you, okay."

Old Man Huo's long eyebrows moved slightly, and this sentence hit the softest place in his heart.

"Pay for it yourself? Shall we go on our own? ”

"For us to go by ourselves, in fact, the cost of treatment abroad is not high, I have saved some money over the years, plus the eldest brother and the second brother are enough to make up a little more." Huo Yan said so, and at the same time took advantage of the old man's inattention to look at Secretary Huo and Director Huo, the two Huo brothers didn't understand at this time, and hurriedly nodded together and said yes.

Finally, Old Man Huo nodded at this matter, the filial piety of the children, it would be inappropriate for him to refuse, not to mention the words of his favorite daughter, since this is the case, let's go out for treatment.

Hearing that Old Man Huo agreed to this, the joy on the faces of the Huo family brothers couldn't be hidden. Old Man Huo saw it in his eyes, and his heart was also slightly moved, feeling that these two sons were not useless, at least they were sincere to themselves. But who would have thought that their joy was not what Old Man Huo thought at all.

After chatting for a while, Old Man Huo was a little tired and asked the nanny to send him upstairs to rest. The Huo brothers and Huo Yan also said goodbye, and after sending the old man upstairs, everyone went downstairs and prepared to leave.

When leaving, Huo Yan gave Secretary Huo and Director Huo a look, and then the three of them went out to a secluded place outside. When there was no one around, Huo Yan said: "I don't talk nonsense, you will give me 1.5 million each." ”

"What 1.5 million" Director Huo jumped up when he heard it, and said angrily: "Are you crazy about money?" Extortion got to Lao Tzu's head? ”

"I said Yanzi, do you want this money?" Secretary Huo also asked unhappily.

Huo Yan looked at them and sneered, "What's the matter? Didn't you all say it on my father's side just now, everyone pooled together money to treat my father's illness. 1.5 million people, not a single point less, call me on the card tomorrow at the latest, you know the card number. ”

"1.5 million people? My eldest brother and I add up to 300,000 yuan, where can the old man use so much money for treatment? Besides, you don't pay for it? You are obviously taking advantage of the fire to rob," Director Huo said angrily.

"It's just taking advantage of the fire, what's the matter?" Huo Yan said calmly: "It doesn't matter if you don't come out, anyway, you didn't discuss this matter with me in advance today, but I helped you a lot." Don't think I don't know, you collect more than 1.5 million yuan for doing this, and I have the greatest effort to do it, and it's not too much to charge some labor fees, right? And I have to accompany my father to go abroad, isn't it hard work? ”

"You ......"

Director Huo was so angry with this sister that Secretary Huo was also angry, they had already calculated it, even if the old man Huo was sent to the best nursing home in Europe, the cost of one month would be 100,000 US dollars, and this project only needed the old man to go out for two months, and it would be 200,000 US dollars, which was less than 1.6 million yuan. But now Huo Yan asked them to pay 300,000 yuan as soon as she opened her mouth, which means that she earned 1.4 million without spending a penny, this abacus is too good, and the business is too shrewd.

"What? Don't want to? If you don't want to, it doesn't matter, I'll go and tell the old man that you don't want to pay, forget about going abroad for treatment....... With that, Huo Yan turned around and was about to go back, but Secretary Huo saw that it was not good, and hurriedly grabbed her.

"Okay, we'll pay for this money" Secretary Huo gritted his teeth and stared at Huo Yan fiercely: "But you have to ensure that the old man goes out, and he can't come back for at least two months, until the domestic affairs are done." ”

"Don't worry about this, I, Huo Yan, do what I say." Huo Yan smiled proudly and promised.

Then, the Huo brothers glared at their sister, and then without saying anything, they turned around and left.

After watching the two brothers leave, the smile on Huo Yan's face faded instantly, she walked to her side, took out the key to open the car door, and sat in the cab, but did not start the car, but took a slender lady's cigarette from her bag and lit it.

After taking a few puffs of cigarettes, Huo Yan took her mobile phone and dialed a number, and soon the other party picked it up after a few ringtones.

"I'm Huo Yan"

"Hello, Miss Huo......." The other party said very politely.

Huo Yan said with a cold face: "I have already done what you want to do for you, when can I give me the IOU?" ”

"Hehe, Miss Huo, don't worry, as long as we confirm it, the IOU will be back to you."

"But I'm going to Europe with my old man ......."

"It doesn't matter, our services are all over the world, as long as the earth is on, we can return the IOU to you." The other party still said in a very polite but unquestionable tone.

Huo Yan hesitated, and said in a cold tone: "I hope you can fulfill your promise, otherwise you will ......." ”

"There will be no accidents, of course, if Miss Huo has an accident, we can't guarantee this." The other party reminded Huo Yan without waiting for him to finish speaking.

"Well, I hope so, that's all." Huo Yan hung up the phone after saying this, and when the phone hung up, she looked at her in front of her in a daze, her eyes were blank as if she was wandering out of the world, the kind of well-behaved and scheming in front of Old Man Huo just now, as well as the strength and ruthlessness in front of her two elder brothers, were gone, replaced by a trace of helplessness and panic in her heart, because the day before yesterday, that thrilling scene of experience seemed to be still in front of her.
