I'm back in 1990

Chapter 1155: Huo Miao is enraged

On their way home, Zeng Hong was still somewhat indignant.

"I think she wasted her two years in the army. She doesn't even know the proper order of seniority. Honestly."

Tang Jianhua then advised, "He might be a little out of sorts after just returning from the army. Besides, didn't my little sister say she'll take Liujin to see Dad and Mom tomorrow?"

It would be better if Zeng Xia wasn't mentioned, because as soon as Zeng Xia is mentioned, Zeng Hong gets angry again.

"I've never seen a mother like her. When she was little, she didn't care about her and just left everything to her younger brother. When she grew up, she spoiled her rotten. It was her younger brother who was the most thoughtful and sent her to the army to train. I didn't expect her to come back and still be like this. Instead of disciplining her properly, she just lets her have her way. If that's the case, then those two years of military service were a waste."

Tang Jianhua didn't say much, after all, he was his brother-in-law's child. He could only comfort him, "Liu Jin is still young, he'll be fine when he's older."

"You're already twenty-one, you'll be twenty-two after the New Year, still young?"

Zeng Hong then felt sorry for her younger brother Huang Xiaochuan and continued to complain.

"What has my younger brother ever done wrong to her? He raised her from infancy, changing her diapers and feeding her. What other maternal uncle would do that? When she was in junior high and didn't do well in school, he went to great lengths to find her a tutor and give her one-on-one lessons. Her biological parents, on the other hand, act like they're just washing their hands of the matter. Now that they're back, they just hide at home. They don't even come to see her maternal grandparents or greet her maternal uncle. I really don't know what to say."

Tang Jianhua had to admit that his brother-in-law was really too good to his family and his brother-in-law's daughter.

Back then, he raised both children from a young age, and he witnessed it all firsthand. Moreover, his brother-in-law was not only good to the two children, but also to him and his brother-in-law.

Otherwise, how could their business have grown to its current scale over the years?

Tang Jianhua is lucky to have met such a brother-in-law in this lifetime.

After receiving a call from her older sister, Zeng Xia realized that she hadn't handled some things well that day. She shouldn't have listened to her daughter. Now, she thought that wanting peace and quiet was just an excuse.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and she kicked the man.

Huo Miao was kicked for no apparent reason and felt somewhat confused: "What's wrong with you now?"

Zeng Xia was just waiting for him to say that, otherwise how could she pin the blame on the man?

"It's all your fault. If it weren't for you, how could Liu Jin have become like this? You spoiled him."

Seeing this, Huo Miao asked, "What's wrong now?"

"You'd better really discipline your precious daughter. We were supposed to go to her grandparents' house tonight, but your little princess said she wanted some peace and quiet and didn't want to go. My older sister just called and gave me a good scolding, saying I didn't raise Liujin properly and that it's the father's fault for not teaching her properly. Don't you think this is your fault?"

Well, after all that, Huo Miao still has to take the blame in the end.

Seeing this, Huo Miao didn't know how to argue, and simply said, "Then let's go to your parents' house tomorrow!"

"You definitely have to go. Your daughter is in your care now. If she says she doesn't want to go again, you need to show your fatherly attitude and not let her do whatever she wants. You know what she said when I told her uncle invited her over for dinner?"

Huo Miao was also eager to know: "What did she say?"

"She said she wasn't going right away. It seems she's still upset about her uncle sending her to join the army. What's wrong with this child? You have to talk to her properly."

Hearing that his daughter was still angry with her uncle, Huo Miao also felt that his daughter had gone too far.

This is simply a matter of not knowing right from wrong!

Her uncle treated her so well that even her own father felt ashamed of himself. How could she be so ungrateful? It's outrageous.

He got up and went to his daughter's room. He knocked on the door, but there was no response for a long time. He turned the doorknob and found that it wasn't locked, so he opened the door and went in.

When I went inside, I saw my daughter sitting on the carpet, talking on the phone and looking very happy.

"Xiaoxiao, it's settled then. I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow night. I haven't seen you in so long, I've missed you so much."

After finishing the call, Huo Xinyuan saw her father in her room, which startled her.

"Dad, when did you come in? Why didn't you knock?"

Hearing his daughter's tone, even though Huo Miao doted on her, he was still very unhappy.

But he suppressed his dissatisfaction and said, "I knocked, and you didn't respond, so I came in."

In the two years that followed, his daughter had become darker and thinner, but her overall energy and spirit were noticeably stronger than before she joined the army. However, what she had just said made him feel that her temperament did not seem to have changed much.

Seeing her father standing there motionless, Huo Xinyuan asked, "Dad, did you need something?"

Huo Miao pulled the chair in front of the dressing table to his side and sat down. "I have a question for you. Your mother said your uncle wants you to go to dinner, and you said you wouldn't go?"

Huo Xinyuan's face stiffened for a moment, unsure how to answer, and she lowered her head.

Huo Miao knew immediately that his wife hadn't lied to him, and he was instantly furious: "What has your uncle ever done to you? I want to hear your story today."

At this moment, Huo Xinyuan stubbornly raised her head: "When did I say he was mean to me? I just don't want to go right now, what are you doing?"

"I don't care if it's temporary or not, I'm just asking you why you don't want to go?"

After holding back for a while, Huo Xinyuan finally spoke her mind: "It's his fault for abandoning me in the army without even saying goodbye."

Huo Miao felt a terrible headache when he saw that his daughter was still struggling with this matter.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, otherwise he wouldn't be able to control his temper.

"Don't you know why we sent you to the army?"

"I know, I didn't say being a soldier was bad, I'm just angry that you didn't tell me beforehand."

"If I had told you beforehand, would you have agreed? Tell me the truth." Huo Miao looked at his daughter and realized that his wife was right. He couldn't abandon the child; she was really spoiled.

Huo Xinyuan did not answer, but her stubborn expression clearly showed her attitude at that moment.

Despite his anger, Huo Miao still earnestly advised, "Think about it carefully. How has your maternal uncle treated you since you were a child? Have you ever seen a maternal uncle treat his niece this well? Tell me!"

Your grandparents knew you were back, so they specially prepared so many dishes for you, and you just said you wanted some peace and quiet and didn't want to go. Do you know how disappointed your grandparents were?

Your aunt just called and scolded your mother. She's still angry outside because of you.

Huo Miao glanced at his daughter, who seemed touched, and continued, "Tomorrow, we'll go to your maternal grandparents' house together to apologize to them and tell them you were being unreasonable. As for your maternal uncle, call him later and tell him you've arrived home, understand?"

After a long while, Huo Xinyuan finally replied, "I understand!"
