âThank you, Uncle Huo. Then I wonât stand on ceremony. By the way, I also brought a gift for Uncle Huo. Ling, go to the kitchen and help me get the chili sauce. â
Uncle Huo, I heard from Ling that you like the chili sauce made in Shacheng very much, so I used the chili that I grew at home to make some chili sauce. It goes especially well with rice.
Thereâs your favorite garlic and some Chinese medicinal herbs that my father mentioned before. Theyâre all added in, and theyâre especially fragrant. Ling, his eldest brother, and sister-in-law also liked it very much.
A spoonful of chili sauce can eat two bowls of rice each. There are mantous today. Uncle Huo, you can try it with chili sauce. Is it the same as what my father used to make?â
Yes, this time Li Muyao brought a few bottles and asked Huo Jiling to make them according to her fatherâs recipe. Of course, he had made them many times before.
Moreover, before Li Muyao nodded to confirm that the taste was the same as her fatherâs, the chili used was all local to Yangcheng. The texture was not good, and it was not very spicy.
Huo Jiling only succeeded after five attempts.
After he succeeded, he took out the chili that Lin Qin sent from his hometown and asked Huo Jiling to continue cooking.
Indeed, Huo Jiling and Jiang Lilan especially liked it after he brought it to Jin City. Huo Jifeng even liked to add this chili sauce when he cooked. It was because of the spiciness of the chili sauce that Jiang Lilan could eat three bowls of rice.
To be able to let Jiang Lilan eat more was definitely the proudest thing in Huo Jifengâs life.
Thatâs right, Huo Jifeng had been married for so many years and had always been keen on feeding his wife.
The degree of intimacy between husband and wife was no less than that of Huo Jiling and Li Muyao. If one said that they were sweeter and warmer, it was the kind of intimacy that outsiders couldnât touch at any time.l Enterl They were in the blissful atmosphere of their two-person world.
âIs that so? Is this the chili sauce that you made yourself? I went to visit my friend these two days. Because my friendâs health wasnât too good, I didnât have a good meal there.
Now, I really miss the chili sauce that your father made. Alright, all of you sit down. Xiu Mei, if you donât want to eat breakfast, you can go back to your room to rest.â
Huo Aiguo didnât take Song Xiumei seriously at all. In other words, he felt that Song Xiumei was a bit of a hindrance.
Huo Aiguo wasnât old enough to be dizzy, so he could clearly see Song Xiumeiâs threatening words and eyes.
Bringing Song Xiumei back to Jin City was Huo Aiguoâs limit.
âI⦠Alright, Iâll go back upstairs to rest. But Old Huo, donât forget what you promised me. âSong Xiumei was very unwilling. She glared at Jiang Lilan and Li Muyao a few times, then turned around and went upstairs.
As she turned around, Song Xiumei felt that there were still many opportunities in the future for her to take revenge.
Right now, the most important thing for Song Xiumei was to capture Huo Aiguo. After she adopted the child, Song Xiumei wanted to use the child to ask Huo Aiguo for some shares. Huo Aiguo would compensate her.
After Song Xiumei left, Li Muyao and the others started chatting happily.
Especially since Huo Aiguo kept asking Li Muyao about the past five years. After all, when Li Dajian was in trouble five years ago, something happened to the Huo family too, so they couldnât rush over. By the time they had time, Li Dajian had already been buried.
Lin Qin also refused to let all of Li Dajianâs friends and comrades visit him.
Huo Aiguo felt guilty about what happened five years ago.
Huo Aiguo ate six steamed buns with chili sauce and drank a bowl of savory soybean milk before sighing, âTime and tide wait for no man! Back then, when your father and I were in the guard team, the happiness we had was something that you kids canât imagine.
Unfortunately⦠However, Little Yaoyao, I heard from Ling that youâre willing to take the college entrance examination next year. You have to work hard!
Your father used to say to me that his only regret was that he didnât study well.
After I had you, your father often wrote to me, saying that you were very smart, very cute, very beautiful, and very good at reading. The eldest son looked much more promising.
Last year, I was really angry when I heard that you didnât get into college and didnât repeat your studies.
Fortunately, Little Yaoyao is willing to continue studying now. Itâs good for girls to study more! Uncle believes that you will definitely be able to get into a good university. When you get into a university, Uncle will give you a house.â
Huo Aiguo looked back at the past and helped Li Muyao imagine the future. He thought of the few things he had left and wanted to give them to Li Muyao.
A building was also a house.
After Huo Aiguo was tricked by Song Xiumei, he wouldnât give Song Xiumei too many things. Fixed assets like the house would definitely be left for his sons and grandchildren.
However, Huo Aiguo also knew that if his eldest son and daughter-in-law were to spend the rest of their lives together, they would never have a child.
Therefore, Huo Aiguo could only look forward to his youngest son and the cute little girl, Yao Yao.
Speaking of her father and their past when they were young, Li Muyao couldnât help but think of the happy times she had spent with her father when she was young. She nodded and coaxed Huo Aiguo to mention more about them.
However, Huo Aiguo didnât say much because he couldnât reveal many things about the guards.
When Huo Aiguo and Li Muyao were chatting, Huo Jifeng and Jiang Lilan had left the table. It was also after they left that Huo Aiguo said,ââLittle Yaoyao, I heard about that Li Mufeng. Youâre doing very well. When your father was still alive, he was worried about you and your two younger brothers.
Now it seems that he still thought that you and your two younger brothers were weak compared to the morning reading.
Moreover, I especially support the three of you. Keep in touch as little as possible. If there is a need, let your two brothers and Ling handle it.
As for that Lin Qinâ¦You have to stay far away from her too, understand?â
Huo Aiguo didnât want to talk about his best friendâs embarrassing situation, but he had been through it before and knew about it.l He definitely had to remind Li Muyao. After all, Li Mufengâs child wasnât a pure kind-hearted person. Even if Li Muyao had the ability to protect herself, she should stay as far away as possible.
âI know. Thank you for telling me this, Uncle.â
Li Muyao and her two younger brothers also knew that her father must have known a long time ago that Li Mufeng was not his biological son. Was he really afraid that Li Muyao and his twin brother wouldnât be able to accept this fact?
Huo Aiguoâs words made Li Muyao suspect that it was her father himself..
