Mr. Huo held his grandson with one hand and his granddaughter with the other. He was wearing a blue cloth clothes and looked like an ordinary grandfather next door, talking to the children with a smile.

"dad"

"dad……."

Secretary Huo and Director Huo quickly met him and greeted the old man with a three-point awe.

After looking up at the two sons, Mr. Huo didn't say much. When his eyes moved from them to the watch on their wrists, Mr. Huo frowned immediately.

"Why did you forget this?" Secretary Huo suddenly felt relieved. The Rolex gold watch he was wearing was not bad. It was also a famous watch. The old man didn't like his children's luxury in his life and always asked them to be hard and simple. The old man he wore was bought with a monthly salary in the 60s, and had never changed it in nearly half a century. Today, he was so confused that he actually ignored this matter. He should have asked to take it off before entering the door.

"Grandpa, I want to eat candy water"

"Grandpa, I want to eat too"

Fortunately, the two children were acting coquettishly at this time and wanted to eat sugar water. Mr. Huo instantly turned into a kind grandfather again, nodding with a smile, and walked towards the kitchen with the child.

When Mr. Huo asked the nanny to get the children's candy water and take them back to the living room, Secretary Huo and Director Huo had already quietly removed the watch on their wrists, and asked their daughter-in-law to hide all the things that were easily "stimulating" to the old man.

"Eat slowly, be careful to choke." said to the children with a smile. Mr. Huo touched the children's heads, and then sat down on the sofa beside him.

"You're still standing there, sit down."

He looked at his two sons who were still standing in the living room with majestic eyes. The old man was so sorry that he couldn't stand the steel.

After responding, Secretary Huo and Director Huo carefully sat down with the old man.

"Have you got into trouble again? Tell me, I plan to take out my old face and sell it for another sale?" Hengmei looked at the two sons, and Mr. Huo asked coldly.

"Dad, what are you talking about? Today, my brother and I came here to see you. Why do you still look at us with your eyes?" Director Huo said aggrievedly.

"What? Am I wrong?" Mr. Huo stretched out his finger and pointed at him: "Who made the General Office's documents wrong last time? It made me almost make a big fuss. How long has this matter been, and you guys have forgotten it? If I hadn't sold this old face to say hello to you, you thought you could still sit in your current position

Director Huo's expression was extremely embarrassing. He did cause a big disaster that time. He made a mistake in the date of an important document in the General Office, and something big happened almost. Fortunately, he asked the old man to come forward and he reluctantly settled the matter. Less than three months have passed, and the thrilling incident is still fresh in memory.

Looking at Huo Lao Er's embarrassing look, Secretary Huo's lips curled up slightly. Don't think they are brothers, but Secretary Huo's relationship with this younger brother is definitely not as good as outsiders' eyes.

"And you" Who would have thought that in the joy in his heart, Mr. Huo pointed his finger at him again, and he pointed at himself: "What's wrong with you, the county party secretary? It's a good old saying, "If you are an official and not a decision for the people, it's better to go home to sell sweet potatoes. You have been in this position for more than two years. You're talking about what benefits to the people besides eating, drinking, and talking every day? You're still trying to get on the top? You're thinking about what kind of deputy mayor to enter the city? You're the matter first, just putting the county party secretary Yu Hao."

The smile instantly turned into surprise and embarrassment. Secretary Huo hung his head and did not dare to refute it. At this time, Director Huo, who had just been trained to be embarrassed, was immediately happy. It seemed that this old man was really fair. After training, he trained himself and the boss, neither of the brothers left behind.

He lowered his eyebrows and let the old man get angry, and then he calmed down. Next, Director Huo gave a look at Secretary Huo, indicating that it was almost done, and he could come as discussed before.

"Dad, are you in good health recently?"

"You can eat well and sleep well, and you can also raise flowers and plants. As long as you two don't get angry, I'm still early to see Marx." Mr. Huo said this as soon as he opened his mouth, choking Secretary Huo.

With a silly smile, Secretary Huo nodded repeatedly, followed the old man's words and said a few words before saying, "Dad, you are an elderly person after all, so you still have to pay attention to your daily well-being."

"Yes, Dad, the weather this year is a bit abnormal. You have to pay more attention to your health and remember to wear more clothes when you are moving." Director Huo was beating the side drum.

"I know my own body," Mr. Huo replied hard, but no matter what, these two are his sons. The son cares about him. The old man does not show his mood on his face, but he actually enjoys it very much in his heart.

After pretending to care for a few words, the Huo brothers began to fool them. They first talked about the health care of the elderly, and then asked their daughter-in-law to bring some health care products they brought today, so that the old man could eat more and take care of them. Then, Secretary Huo mentioned that a medical delegation in the province would go to Europe for a few days. It is said that Europe has a good way to treat some old injuries to the elderly. For the sake of the old man's health, he suggested that the old man go out for a walk and take care of the old injuries in Europe.

"Not bad" Who would have thought that Mr. Huo was so angry that he had just finished speaking that he reached out and slapped hard on the handrail: "The medical delegation in the province, I, an idle person, followed him, and did not do business for his own family? You are all Yumen of the Party and the people. How can you tell you such a thing? I will never agree with this matter."

"I said dad, don't get angry," Secretary Huo quickly advised: "My second brother and I understand what you said. You are the old man and the master. You are very enlightened. No matter how bad we are under your guidance, we will not be able to do this. I think so. Your old injury is getting worse and less easy to treat as you get older. This time, the medical delegation is just a good opportunity to go out for treatment according to your level. Of course, the advantage of the public cannot be taken, so we think about spending money to go out for treatment. Following the medical delegation mainly considers 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 said, and these words made Mr. Huo stunned.

"Pay your own money?"

“Yes”

"Don't take advantage of the public?"

“Yes, yes”

"Then I won't go." Who would have thought that Mr. Huo refused their suggestion in one go. At this moment, the two of them were stunned and looked at each other and didn't say anything.

Mr. Huo is very ruling, and men at home always stand aside when talking to women, so the daughter-in-law of the Huo brothers is not easy to persuade. Everyone stares at him and there is no way to deal with the old man.

"dad"

At this moment, a sound came from outside. Mr. Huo, who had a serious expression, calmed down when he heard this voice, and the Huo brothers' expression suddenly changed, because the voice was not someone else, but their little sister.

"Little Swallow, come on." Mr. Huo was much better at this daughter than to his two unscrupulous sons. Seeing that his daughter was coming, he greeted her with a smile.

Huo Yan entered the house with her high-ranking shoes. She first said hello to her father, then saw her two brothers and sister-in-law who were there, and nodded at them with a smile, and then sat down next to Mr. Huo.

"What are you talking about?" Huo Yan is in her thirties this year, but she still looks young like a girl in her twenties. She sat down and looked at her two brothers on the side, and asked with a smile. But for some reason, she seemed to be a little different today than usual. Her face seemed not very good, and there was a hint of undetectable bitterness and helplessness in her smile.

"You two uneasy brothers have all their bad ideas." Mr. Huo reached out to Secretary Huo and Director Huo, and talked about the fact that they asked him to go to Europe for medical treatment just now. After the lecture, he said angrily: "Listen, it's so vague, but in fact it's not just using the privileges in his hands to do things for himself? I've been sitting upright all my life, but I don't expect that when I get old, I'll still be able to stab my backbone."

Huo Yan nodded repeatedly and blamed the two brothers according to the old man's words. Seeing Huo Yan's attitude, Secretary Huo and Director Huo both felt heartbroken and couldn't help but want to curse. This woman didn't come early or late, why did she come at this time? She looked righteous and pretended to show her favor in front of the old man. In fact, what's the difference between her and herself? She doesn't do less to dig up the country's corners on weekdays. Now she has a pig's nose and is pretending to be here.

"But Dad, my brother and others have made the arrangements for this matter, but then again, this filial piety is still not easy. Besides, your old injury was left when you went to the countryside. The weather changed over the years. In the past, you were in good health and could survive, but now you are so old, and it's not a big deal to endure it all year round. What if... what should you do?" As he said that, Huo Yan shed tears.

"It's strange? Is the sun coming out from the west today?" The Huo brothers were stunned when they saw this scene. My sister has never been a good-for-nothing lamp. There is no time to agree with them on weekdays? But what's wrong today? And haven't she always maintained a different attitude towards this matter before? Why did she change her mind all of a sudden?

"Don't cry, Xiaoyanzi..." As soon as her daughter burst into tears, Mr. Huo's heart suddenly became soft and he quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

After crying for a few times, Huo Yan pulled the topic back: "Dad, the medical conditions in Europe are indeed good, but following the medical delegation is easy to get gossip. Even if we pay for it ourselves, it is easy to misunderstand it in the eyes of others. Do you think?"

Mr. Huo nodded slightly. This was indeed what he was thinking.

After a change of topic, Huo Yan said again: "It's better to do this. I'm going to Europe to discuss projects next month, so we can go there. Anyway, it's because I'm paying for it myself, and no matter how others do, I can't talk. I'll find someone to arrange it in advance and find a sanatorium there to treat it. By the way, dad, didn't you say back then that you always wanted to go abroad and have a look? Now that I'm leaving, take this opportunity to cure my illness and take a closer look at the scenery abroad. This is also our children's wish."

"This..." Mr. Huo hesitated a little and didn't make any decisions for a while.

"Dad...you agree. Mom is no longer here. You are the one I dearest and closest to. As a daughter, I don't miss you...I beg you, can you do it?"

Mr. Huo's long long brows moved slightly, and this sentence hit the softest part of his heart.

"Pay the money by yourself? Let's go by yourself?"

"For us to go by ourselves, the cost of treatment abroad is not high. I have saved some money over the years, and it is enough for me to raise a little bit of it," Huo Yan said, while taking advantage of the old man's inattention to give a look at Secretary Huo and Director Huo. The Huo brothers didn't understand at this time, so they hurriedly nodded repeatedly and said yes.

Finally, Mr. Huo nodded to this matter. It would be inappropriate for him to refuse his children's filial piety, let alone his favorite daughter's words. Since that's the case, then go out to treat the disease.

Listening to Mr. Huo agreeing to this, the joy on the Huo brothers' faces could not be concealed. Mr. Huo saw it and felt slightly moved in his heart, feeling that these two sons were not useless, at least they were sincere to him. But who would have thought that their joy was not what Mr. Huo thought.

After chatting for a while, Mr. Huo was a little tired and asked the nanny to take him upstairs to rest. The Huo brothers and Huo Yan also offered to say goodbye. After sending the old man upstairs, everyone went downstairs and prepared to leave.

When leaving, Huo Yan winked at Secretary Huo and Director Huo, and then the three of them went out to a secluded place outside. When there was no one around, Huo Yan then said, "I don't mean nothing, you will give me 1.5 million."

"What's 1.5 million?" Director Huo jumped up as soon as he heard this and said angrily: "Are you crazy about money? Has the blackmail brought me to my head?"

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

Huo Yan looked at them and sneered, "What's wrong? Didn't you all say that on my father's side just now? Everyone gathered money to treat my father's illness. 1.5 million yuan per person, no point can be lost. At the latest, call me to the card tomorrow. You know the card number."

"1.5 million per person? My elder brother and I combined for 300,000 yuan. Where can the old man use so much money to treat the disease? Besides, you won't pay for it? You are obviously taking advantage of the situation to rob," Director Huo said angrily.

"Just take advantage of the situation, what's the matter?" Huo Yan said calmly: "It doesn't matter if you don't leave. Anyway, you didn't discuss this with me in advance today. I did a lot of help. Don't think I don't know. The money you collected is more than 1.5 million for this matter. The biggest effort is for me, so it's not too much to charge some labor fees, right? And I have to accompany my father abroad in person. Isn't it hard to pay?"

"you……"

Director Huo was so angry with this sister that Secretary Huo was also angry. Once they came out, they had already passed it. Even if they sent Mr. Huo to the best nursing home in Europe, the monthly fee would be only 100,000 US dollars. This project only requires the old man to go out for two months. It would be only 200,000 US dollars for the day, and it would be less than 1.6 million yuan for the RMB. But now, Huo Yan asked them to pay 300,000 yuan as soon as she opened her mouth, which meant that she had made 1.4 million without spending a penny. This abacus was too good and she was doing business too smart.

"What? I don't want to? It doesn't matter if I don't want to. I'll tell the old man that you don't want to pay. Let's forget about going abroad for treatment..." As he said that, Huo Yan turned around and was about to walk back. Secretary Huo saw that something was wrong and quickly grabbed her.

"We will pay for this money," Secretary Huo gritted his teeth and stared at Huo Yan hard: "But you must ensure that the old man will go out, and you cannot come back within at least two months, until the domestic affairs are completed."

"Don't worry, I, Huo Yan, do what I say." Huo Yan smiled proudly and made a promise.

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

After watching the two brothers leave, the smile on Huo Yan's face faded instantly. She walked to her side, took out the key and opened the car door, 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 dialed a number with her cell phone. After a few ringing sounds, the other party quickly picked up the call.

"I am Huo Yan"

"Hello Miss Huo..." the other party said politely.

Huo Yanhan said with a face: "I have done what you are going to do for you. When can I give me the IOU?"

"Haha, Miss Huo, don't worry, as long as we confirm, the IOU will return to your hands."

"But I want to go to Europe with my old man..."

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

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

"There will be no surprises. Of course, if Miss Huo has an accident, we cannot guarantee this." The other party reminded him before Huo Yan finished speaking.

"Okay, hope so, that's it." Huo Yan said this and hung up the phone. When the phone was hung up, she stared blankly in front of her, her eyes were as clear as a soul wandering around the sky. The obedience and scheming she had just in front of Mr. Huo, and the strength and ruthlessness in front of her two brothers were gone, replaced by a hint of helplessness and panic in her heart, because just the day before yesterday, the thrilling experience seemed to be still in front of her.
