Chapter 168: It’s better not to eat this New Year’s Eve dinner
Although Huo Yunrui was unwilling, he could only stand outside when he saw his mother's wink.
"Zi Yan, is everything okay? Do you want to go to the hospital to check it out? Is your head dizzy?"
Shi Shi looked concerned and worried.
Huo Yunzheng ignored her and squatted down to look at his son.
"Dad, I'm not dizzy, I just have a headache."
Huo Xiaonuan was indignant, holding her cat in her arms, "How can it not hurt to get hit with such a big bump?"
If the old man hadn't been there, she would have used his own method to retaliate and let that bastard taste the feeling of being hit by a stone.
"Go back to your room and reflect on it. You should know what I mean." Huo Jiachuan whispered to Huo Jiaxing beside him.
She cleared herself of all blame in this matter, but Huo Jiachuan knew that his sister was not free from blame.
Huo Jiaxing said "oh" and turned around and walked out reluctantly, taking another look at Huo Yunrui who was standing in the yard as punishment.
Idiot, why is he showing off with just this little ability?
I really don’t know where he got his confidence from. Fortunately, she didn’t get involved, otherwise she would have suffered with him!
In the evening, the table was filled with all kinds of food, fruits and snacks, and a gala was playing on TV. After Grandpa Huo and Huo Yunzheng took their seats, everyone sat down one after another.
"Dad, why don't we let Yunrui in? The temperature outside is low right now. Let him come in and have a meal, otherwise he will catch a cold." Huo Shan said cautiously.
He had heard about what happened in the afternoon and looked at Huo Yunzheng unhappily.
It's just a trivial matter. Is it necessary to treat your own brother like this?
Huo Yunrui had been standing outside for more than four hours. When he checked just now, he found that the child's knees and feet could no longer bear it.
Mr. Huo couldn't bear it, so he told the butler, "Let him in for dinner."
The butler nodded and glanced at the Second Master, who did not say anything.
Huo Yunrui was supported by the housekeeper. His calves were sore and his waist was almost broken. When he entered the room, he glared at Huo Yunzheng fiercely, but he immediately restrained himself.
"grandfather."
Old Master Huo was in a bad mood. It was a nice holiday, but it made everyone feel bad.
"Sit down."
Huo Yunrui nodded, "Thank you, Grandpa."
Shi Shi felt distressed when she saw her son limping, but she did not say a word for him. Instead, she showed concern for Huo Ziyan.
"Zi Yan, does your head still hurt?"
Huo Ziyan sat next to Huo Xiaonuan. In the Huo family, apart from Huo Yunzheng, he was closer to Huo Xiaonuan.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Shi Shi couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
Mr. Huo put down the chopsticks in his hand, his mouth corners tightly tightened, and he was obviously very dissatisfied.
"Zi Yan is so repulsive now, he has no manners at all, and he doesn't know how to teach him well. Did you marry that wife just for show?"
She hadn't even met the person, but she was already complaining about the person who wasn't there. Huo Xiaonuan felt sorry for her second sister-in-law.
This is an inherent prejudice, old man.
"Don't talk about my mother!" Huo Ziyan shouted, his cheeks puffed up and his eyes widened.
Huo Yunzheng didn't even pick up the chopsticks and just leaned back in his chair.
"Zi Yan, go home with Dad."
It’s better not to eat such a New Year’s Eve dinner.
Seeing Huo Yunzheng stand up, pick up Huo Ziyan and be about to leave, Old Man Huo's face looked worse than ever.
Huo Shan stopped him, feeling dissatisfied. Ever since his son met the woman from the Jing family, he had acted more and more willfully, without considering the consequences at all.
"Where are you going? It's New Year's Day. What does it mean that you don't stay at home?"
Huo Yunzheng stood there, looking at everyone present with a cold gaze.
"Grandpa, I'm married now and I have my own family. I should be with my wife and son on New Year's Eve. But it's precisely the person you despise the most that tried every means to persuade me to come back and show my filial piety."
After these words were spoken, Mr. Huo was obviously stunned.
"You know what Zi Yan was like when he first came to the Huo family. Now he can study, go to school and make friends like a normal child, all because of Chu Chu's careful care. Don't forget that she is not Zi Yan's biological mother. Few people can do this, but in your eyes, she is useless."
"The Huo family is really a reasonable and fair place."
The last sentence was so ironic that no one dared to speak. Mr. Huo's right hand, which was holding the cane, trembled slightly.
"I still say the same thing. It would be best if you can tolerate her. If you can't, I won't force you. Huo family, just choose another heir."
This is giving up.
At the dinner table, Shi Shi was delighted. This was not the first time that Huo Yunzheng had confronted the old man. Tonight was New Year's Eve, and the old man attached great importance to rules and traditions. He was showing his disapproving attitude to everyone, which was simply going against the will of heaven.
"Second brother, don't be angry, let's eat first." Huo Jiachuan advised.
Huo Xiaonuan glanced at her grandfather and tried to persuade him, "That's right, second brother. You are not hungry, but Ziyan is. If you go back so late, there will be no servants in Lishuiju, and it will be cold and deserted."
Huo Jiayuan looked smug and enjoyed watching the show.
"Second brother, there is no need to go back to Lishuiju. The door of the Jing family is open."
"Shut up." Huo Jiachuan scolded in a low voice.
It's already this time, and he's still adding fuel to the fire, afraid that the matter isn't big enough?
"Are you going to the Jing family?" Old Master Huo also asked angrily. Does he like being a son-in-law of the Jing family so much?
Huo Yunzheng sneered, "Grandpa, your grandson is not a popular commodity. Chuchu is marrying down to me. Do you really think the Jing family is so satisfied with me?"
Old Master Huo was speechless for a moment. He knew, of course, that Old Man Jing had made a lot of efforts over the years. In addition, the Jing family had a good background and was indeed more prestigious than the Huo family.
Huo Yunzheng took his son away, and no one in the family dared to stop them.
Huo Xiaonuan no longer had the appetite to eat. She turned sideways to face the old man and said from the bottom of her heart, "Grandpa, you haven't seen my second sister-in-law, but I have."
"She is really good. I can assure you that if you insist on breaking them up, there will be no one in the world who loves my second brother more than her, and my second brother will never marry again."
"If you want to see my second brother die alone, then continue to be stubborn."
This was the first time that Huo Xiaonuan was so bold. Although the old man doted on her and she sometimes did things a little out of line, she would never dare to be presumptuous in front of the old man.
For her second brother and sister-in-law, she risked everything.
"I won't eat this meal either. Second brother is right. There is really no sense in our family."
It was a great New Year's Eve dinner, but three people left and none of the remaining people dared to pick up their chopsticks or speak a word.
Huo Qi tried to keep a low profile as much as possible because he was held accountable some time ago. However, looking at the current situation, he couldn't help but feel proud and looked at Huo Jiayuan.
Let’s make a fuss. The more violent the fight between Huo Yunzheng and the old man, the better it will be for them father and son.
