Huo Xiaoxiao was very angry.
Why do adults nowadays like to talk nonsense with their eyes open
She managed to pluck up the courage, and racked her brains to think of a way to please her father. It's fine if she isn't moved. Even the people in the painting don't want to admit that it's her.
Is there such a thing as a father
Can't even taste the love of your own daughter
It's so hard to serve!
Even if the Heavenly King and Lao Tzu are here today, she still draws dad instead of grandpa!
"Dad of the painting!" Huo Xiaoxiao pointed to the adult on the painting, and explained righteously: "Today at the beach, Dad, I, I'm sorry Dad, so... draw a picture and give it to Dad."
Explanations are broken in fits and starts, but the logic is clear.
I did something wrong at the beach today, so I sent this painting to my father to express my apology.
Huo Suicheng looked at the painting with frowning eyebrows, and under Huo Xiaoxiao's expectant eyes, said: "You were too modest about what happened in the afternoon, and I have forgiven you."
Huo Xiaoxiao deeply felt that her father's words meant: I forgive you, so I don't have to apologize with this painting.
After all, I still despise her paintings.
Ugly is a bit ugly, but it was drawn by your daughter whose blood is thicker than water, so you can't accept it against your will
I have never seen him to be such an honest and upright person.
After thinking about it, Huo Xiaoxiao took the painting back to the room, climbed up on the stool and lay down on the table, and continued to draw on the painting.
She drew another person on the painting, with a flat head like a pumpkin, a body as thick as a winter melon, eyes bigger than a mouth, hands thicker than feet, and thick hair.
Wow, that's ugly.
After finishing the painting, he ran to the room excitedly and handed the painting to Huo Suicheng to see.
"This is Dad, this is Grandpa, and this is me!"
A family of three, neat and tidy.
Huo Suicheng looked at the most abstract man in the painting, and after a few seconds of silence, he praised against his will: "Well, the painting is really good."
Because of the praise, Huo Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, "Then dad accepts it! Don't be angry!"
"Dad has said it, and he has forgiven you. Don't be angry. If you show this painting to Grandpa, he will be happy."
Huo Xiaoxiao nodded hurriedly, with a look of excitement and anticipation, "I'll go... go... show it to grandpa!"
After finishing speaking, I couldn't wait to go to Mr. Huo's room with this painting.
Mr. Huo was about to take a rest when Huo Xiaoxiao knocked on the door.
He opened the door and looked down. There was a child standing at the door stepping up and down, jumping around in small steps, holding up the painting with both hands to show him.
"Grandpa, Grandpa! Draw!"
The moment he saw the painting, Mr. Huo was really pleasantly surprised. He took the painting from Xiaoxiao's hand and hugged her with the other.
"Is this Xiaoxiao's painting?"
Huo Xiaoxiao nodded heavily, and pointed at the painting, "This is grandpa, this is dad, and this is me!"
Old Mr. Huo is not as picky as Huo Suicheng, he thinks his granddaughter draws really well from the bottom of his heart, and he is not stingy in his compliments. No?"
"Look! Daddy praises!"
Mr. Huo admired this painting with satisfaction, and felt that this was the first painting he painted in his life. Such a commemorative painting should be kept in a good collection.
"Grandpa will find a picture frame later, and frame this little picture and hang it on the wall, okay?"
"..." There is no need to spend so much trouble.
She knew exactly what this painting was like. Where would it really be so inflated that she couldn't find her way after being praised
Frame it and hang it on the wall
Look up and see down.
Shame is nothing more than ugly.
Huo Xiaoxiao shook his head like a rattle, "No... No, I want to give it to Dad!"
"To Dad?"
"Dad was angry in the afternoon, so I drew a picture and gave it to Dad."
Mr. Huo suddenly realized, "So Xiaoxiao gave this painting to Dad as an apology? Okay, then let's frame it and give it to Dad, and put it in Dad's room. Your dad will be very happy."
Huo Xiaoxiao recalled Huo Suicheng's expression when he saw the painting.
Maybe... not very happy
Mr. Huo hugged Xiaoxiao with a smile all over his face, and went to Uncle Chen with the painting, asking him to find a frame to frame the painting carefully.
Looking at Xiao Xiaohua's paintings, Uncle Chen also praised Xiao Xiaohua again and again, without hesitation, "Is this painted by Xiao Xiaohua? It's really good. Uncle Chen must frame it properly."
Just do it.
Chen Bo immediately found someone to find the picture frame, carefully framed the A4 paper size picture, wiped and wiped the mirror glass until it was spotless, and then showed the picture frame to Huo Xiaoxiao.
Huo Xiaoxiao blushed seeing a horrible painting he drew being treated like a celebrity masterpiece.
I'm really a little embarrassed.
"Give me the painting." Mr. Huo took the frame from Uncle Chen and walked upstairs to Huo Suicheng's room.
After entering the room, Mr. Huo first looked around for a while. Under Huo Suicheng's unclear eyes, he pointed to the wall facing the bedside in the room, and asked Huo Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, look at hanging the painting here. OK?"
Only then did Huo Suicheng notice the picture frame in Mr. Huo's hand, and his heart skipped a beat.
"What are you... talking about?"
Mr. Huo smiled and showed him the frame, "This is the first painting of Xiaoxiaohua. I think it is very meaningful, so I asked Lao Chen to find a frame and frame it. This painting of Xiaoxiaohua is specially for you The paintings, of course, have to be hung in your room."
"..." Huo Suicheng hesitated to speak.
Huo Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to boo, "Okay!"
"Well, let the workers nail a nail here later, and then hang the painting." After finishing speaking, Mr. Huo turned around and said to Huo Suicheng: "Look how good Xiaoxiao is, knowing how to paint when you are angry I will apologize to you for painting, how good you are at painting. In the future, don’t lose your temper all the time, what’s wrong with the kids? Just teach them slowly.”
Huo Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement.
Huo Suicheng sighed, and accepted Huo Xiaoxiao's painting of an apology.
Anyway, I don't come to this holiday villa very often.
"I see."
"Then put the painting here for you first, and I'll ask the workers to come over and hang it up for you later."
Huo Suicheng looked down at the picture frame in his hand, "It's really a good painting, quite talented."
Huo Xiao was taken aback.
"I'll invite that art teacher back in two days. Talent can't be wasted."
"Okay, let's do that."
Huo Xiaoxiao: "..."
It didn't take long for the workers to come upstairs, drive a nail to the wall in Huo Suicheng's room, and hang the painting that can be regarded as a "naive" painting on the wall.
The worker couldn't help laughing twice when he saw the painting.
Huo Suicheng looked over at Xunsheng, "What are you laughing at?"
Seeing Huo Suicheng's stern expression, the worker quickly explained, "You misunderstood, I just think this picture drawn by your daughter is really cute."
Huo Suicheng looked back coldly, "Go out."
The workers hurriedly packed up their things and left.
Although this is just a holiday villa, there is still no slack in the decoration, every inch is carefully designed by the designer.
From the overall frame layout to the decorative vases, they are all exquisite.
The paintings hanging on the wall are not to mention sky-high prices and famous paintings, but they are also very valuable.
Suddenly, a picture drawn by a childish child hangs on the wall, which is very abrupt at first glance.
Painting like this can still be framed, except for Huo Xiaoxiao, there is no one else in the whole family.
Huo Suicheng stood in front of the painting and looked at it for a while. The man with thick hair in the painting didn't resemble him at all except his hair.
It is said that the daughter is his father's little padded jacket, why does Huo Suicheng think that this child is sent by heaven to torture him
Day by day, every time I think about it, I come up with it.
The mirror surface of the picture frame seemed to be stained with some dust from the workers nailing the nails just now. Huo Suicheng reached out and wiped it, and it was clean.
——
Early the next morning, Huo Xiaoxiao opened his eyes in high spirits.
After sending out the painting last night, Huo Xiaoxiao thought that he had shaken hands with his father and made peace, and would no longer hurt each other, so he had no psychological burden for this, and even had a good night's sleep.
The only thing that troubled her was that she wanted to play in the water, but Mr. Huo refused.
But what's the point of coming to the beach without playing in the water
boring.
For a whole day, the red bow swimsuit that Huo Xiaoxiao specially put on didn't play a single role. He just carried a small plastic bucket during the whole process. Mr. Huo held hands and told him not to leave each step, on the beach. I picked up a few shells and came back.
It's not as good as the dog leash that Huo Suicheng gave her yesterday.
There is a swimming pool in the backyard of the villa. When she went upstairs, she vaguely heard the sound of water, and hurriedly ran to the backyard with her short legs.
The swimming pool is quite large, with deck chairs and barbecue grills on the shore, and she saw people swimming in the pool.
"dad!"
Huo Suicheng swam back and forth in the swimming pool, and vaguely saw a child standing by the pool, sticking his head out of the water and docking on the shore. Sliding down the tall bridge of the nose into the pool.
Who wears clothes when swimming
Huo Xiaoxiao looked at her father's naked eight-pack abs. The muscles were clearly defined, and the arm muscles were well-proportioned. It was very powerful at first glance.
Turning his big black eyes around, Huo Xiaoxiao smirked at him, stepped back with his right foot, and ran towards Huo Suicheng with a stride.
Huo Xiaoxiao's bold move shocked the old father.
His face changed drastically, and he took a few steps back hastily, and firmly caught Huo Xiaoxiao who jumped down from the bank with his hands and chest.
"Huo Xiaoxiao!"
Huo Xiaoxiao, who didn't feel that he had done anything wrong, hugged Huo Suicheng's neck, and his two short legs were soaked in the water.
"Dad, go swimming!"
Huo Suicheng, who had lingering fear in his heart, frowned and scolded: "Who made you jump down!"
Huo Xiaoxiao is confident: "There is Dad!"
Huo Suicheng saw that she was very courageous, and there was nothing she dared not do.
Hold her in one hand and swim to the shore, "Go up!"
Huo Xiaoxiao hugged his neck and didn't let go, "I don't! Dad taught me, I want to swim too."
What was the result of her search yesterday
Always depend on your father.
"Be obedient, Dad will teach you when you grow up."
"I want it now."
"Huo Xiaoxiao, do you have to let me give you a complete childhood before you will be obedient?"
"..." She knew her dad had wanted to beat her up for a long time.
Huo Suicheng hugged Huo Xiaoxiao and stood up from the swimming pool and walked to the shore, grabbed a towel on the deck chair, dried her body and put her on the deck chair.
Just as I was about to wipe myself off, I heard the sound of water splashing behind me.
When Huo Suicheng turned around, he saw Huo Xiaoxiao jumped into the water happily. Huo Suicheng was frightened and rushed into the water to arrest people.
"Ahem... Dad, I'm fine." Huo Xiaoxiao was picked up by Huo Suicheng, grabbed his arm and coughed twice.
nothing serious.
Huo Suicheng's hanging heart finally let go. Seeing her smiling so hard that she couldn't see her teeth, she reluctantly stroked her wet hair back, "I'll settle the score with you later."
Huo Xiaoxiao was not afraid at all, and even yelled at her father: "Dad, go... go to the back!"
Huo Suicheng had nothing to do with her, and slowly swam back, letting her grab his arm, kicking randomly in the water with his short legs.
"Hold your breath when your head goes down."
"leg!"
"Breathe."
It's easy to say that Huo Suicheng can swim, but Huo Xiaoxiao, a landlubber, has never learned to swim in his previous life, and regretted it after splashing a few times and taking a few sips of water.
Swimming is too hard!
The taste of water pouring from the nose is too uncomfortable.
"Dad... Dad, no, no, no..." She panicked and wanted to stop learning, but she gurgled a few bubbles.
"Don't be afraid, Dad is here."
The arm strongly held her sinking body, Huo Xiaoxiao felt the force of the uplift, and took a deep breath.
Under Huo Suicheng's teaching, Huo Xiaoxiao held onto Huo Suicheng's mobile phone for a while, then gradually became bolder and let go of his hand, and started to swim with his hands and feet excitedly.
As a landlubber, Huo Xiaoxiao never thought that swimming could be such an easy task.
"Dad! Dad, look at me! I will!"
The stingy old father was finally willing to give her a compliment without hesitation, "Smart."
Huo Xiaoxiao was praised, her tail almost went up to the sky, and she happily swam to Huo Suicheng's side, "Dad is smarter!"
Before Huo Suicheng could say anything, Mr. Huo's angry voice came from behind him: "Huo Suicheng! What are you doing!"
Seeing Mr. Huo coming, Huo Xiaoxiao swam even more happily.
She kept flopping in the water.
"Grandpa, I can swim! Dad taught me!"
She also wanted to show her superb swimming skills to Mr. Huo, but Huo Suicheng carried her ashore.
Aunt Zhao and others quickly sent towels to Huo Xiaoxiao to dry off the water stains.
Only then did Huo Xiaoxiao see three or four servants walking in with iron buckets or charcoal.
Huo Suicheng wiped his hair with a towel, and said: "You didn't see it, she kept jumping in and had to learn to swim. Although she is still young, you can't blame me for everything."
"She is ignorant and you are ignorant?" Mr. Huo looked at Huo Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao!"
Huo Xiaoxiao blinked, and said obediently: "Grandpa, I'm sorry, I was wrong, and I won't do it in the future."
After getting the guarantee, Mr. Huo's face softened a little.
"Grandpa, what are they doing?"
Mr. Huo squatted down and wiped the water stains for her personally, "They caught a lot of seafood, and we steamed and grilled them in the yard at night, but because a certain child was disobedient, grandpa decided..."
barbecue
picnic
Huo Xiaoxiao had no psychological pressure to act like a baby in front of the old man, and kissed the old man on the face with a slap, "Grandpa is the best!"
Mr. Huo was very helpless, but he was very useful, "Hurry up and change your clothes, don't catch a cold."
"it is good!"
Huo Xiaoxiao happily went upstairs to change clothes.
When it came down, the sky was dark and the sun was slowly sinking into the sea.
Aunt Zhao and the others were preparing for the barbecue over the grill. Huo Xiaoxiao couldn't wait, so she watched eagerly in front of the grill, kept wandering around, and urged her twice from time to time.
Huo Suicheng and Mr. Huo sat at a wooden table on the side.
The moonlight is very good today, and the lights in the yard are all brightly lit. There are even a lot of tiny colored lights hung on the lush trees, reflecting the whole yard brightly.
Huo Suicheng opened a bottle of wine, poured Mr. Huo a glass, and enjoyed this moment of peace.
When sitting down, Mr. Huo supported his waist, frowning, obviously uncomfortable.
Huo Suicheng saw it, and said: "I see that your waist is not very good recently, and I will accompany you to the hospital for a checkup some other day."
Mr. Huo hammered his waist, and said in a relaxed tone, "It's nothing serious, it's an old problem I had when you were young."
"When I was young?"
"You were naughtier than Xiaoxiao when you were a child, and you are like today. You have to learn to swim. I didn't let you jump into the pool by yourself. When I picked you up, you hurt your back. It hasn't recovered. Your mother even spanked you for it. Twice, you hold grudges and ignore her for two days."
Huo Suicheng was silent for a moment.
"I don't remember, Mom...she hit me."
"You were young at that time, of course you don't remember."
"Still young? How young?"
"Not much bigger than Xiaoxiao, but much heavier than her."
The sound of waves outside the villa can be faintly heard, and there is a breeze blowing, carrying the salty and humid atmosphere of the ocean.
Huo Suicheng lowered his eyebrows, "I almost don't remember what my mother looks like."
"For many years..."
"She must regret it." Huo Suicheng thought.
Otherwise, he would not have sent a letter when he was seriously ill, hoping that he could visit her.
"Maybe." Mr. Huo looked up at the Yuyu Qingshan behind him, "When will the project start?"
"The fifth day of next month."
"It's a good day."
Huo Suicheng didn't speak.
Mr. Huo sighed: "Come back later, it won't be so quiet."
"Dad, I'm sorry..."
"Okay, this place has been vacant for more than ten years, so it should be well developed. I didn't agree with your father before, but I got into a dead end. Now that you are going to develop this place, do it well and don't let me down."
"Don't worry, leave the company to me, and I won't let you down."
If Mr. Huo handed over the remaining shares of the company under his name to Huo Suicheng with worry a year ago, then Mr. Huo is completely relieved now.
He picked up the wine glass and touched Huo Suicheng, "The company is entrusted to you, I am at ease."
Swallowing a sip of wine, the aroma of grilled seafood wafted over with the wind.
Huo Suicheng put down his wine glass and asked him, "When did you and Mom divorce?"
Mr. Huo's hands froze, and he said: "Before she left, she filed for divorce with me. It happened that the company went bankrupt. I didn't want to involve her, so I simply divorced her."
"Then why don't you ever tell me?"
"You are still young, what can I tell you?"
"I didn't see you tell me when I grew up?"
"You're old enough, what else can I tell you?"
"If you had told me earlier..."
"It doesn't matter how obedient you are, look at Xiaoxiao," Mr. Huo looked at the mischievous Huo Xiaoxiao at the barbecue table, "Like a father, like a daughter."
Huo Suicheng looked over and smiled.
"Yes, like father, like son."
Mr. Huo glared at him, and cursed with a smile: "It's not big or small."
Huo Xiaoxiao at the barbecue table finally got a crispy roasted chicken leg, and hurried over.
"Grandpa, eat chicken drumsticks!"
Mr. Huo took it with a smile, "Give it to grandpa, where's dad?"
Huo Xiaoxiao spotted the oranges on the table, and she tiptoed to get one from the table with difficulty. She peeled off the orange peel bit by bit with her white and tender fingers, carefully picked off the white strands on the orange petals, stuffed them To Huo Suicheng's mouth.
Huo Suicheng took a bite, and in the fresh sea breeze, he tasted the sweetness of the orange in his mouth.
