The black car drove out of the city and headed towards a sparsely populated road. After a while, it arrived at the foot of a mountain. After walking up the winding mountain road for about ten minutes, we finally caught a glimpse of a corner of an old castle in the shadow of the trees. After passing through a tall arch, the car stopped in a residential area.
As the top wealthy family in Ningcheng, Huo Mansion is built halfway up a mountain outside the city. It has an open-air swimming pool, a garden racecourse and other places, covering an area like a square.
Through the car window, Qin Mian sighed in her heart, no wonder it was so difficult for the heroine in Ba Zong to escape from the clutches of the hero. For a villa as big as Huo Mansion, there are more than ten security personnel, and there are surveillance cameras everywhere. .
Let's take a look at Huo Lin before she gets divorced.
…
As soon as they entered the room, a servant came over, took their coats and hung them aside.
"The old lady has been talking about Mr. and Mrs. for a long time, and today she even cooked the food herself." Aunt Chen, who was waiting next to her, said with a smile.
Aunt Chen is an elderly member of the Huo family. When Grandpa Qin Mian was still here, she followed him to the Huo Mansion. At that time, Aunt Chen had been working here for a long time.
"Really? I haven't eaten grandma's cooking for a long time." Qin Mian also responded affectionately, talking to Aunt Chen while going inside.
The decoration of the old house is Chinese-style, low-key yet luxurious.
In the living room, Mr. Huo is dressed in a Tang suit, full of energy, his hair is meticulously combed with silver threads, and his frowning face can reveal his youthful handsomeness, and his overall aura cannot be ignored.
Even though Qin Mian and Huo Lin had a bit of trouble in the past two days, Qin Mian still played the role of a well-behaved grandson-in-law in front of her grandparents.
The two of them stepped forward to greet the old man together, and then were greeted by the old man to sit down.
"Why, you won't come back unless your grandma and I ask you to come back?" The old man's voice was calm and dignified.
Qin Mian's heart tightened and she glanced at Huo Lin from the corner of her eye. Huo Lin still looked cold.
Although she knew that her grandfather was very kind to her, her grandfather's aura of superiority was hard for her to ignore. In her heart, she was still a little afraid of her grandfather.
"Mianmian, don't listen to your grandpa."
Suddenly a gentle female voice came from behind. Qin Mian turned his head and saw that it was grandma. She was wearing a dark purple cheongsam and was holding an apron she had just taken off.
Before grandma married into the Huo family, she was also the daughter of the family. She had studied abroad and had a gentle and elegant temperament in her every move.
An unbeatable beauty, even though the old lady is already over seventy, she is well-maintained and looks like a woman in her fifties. Her silver hair has long been dyed black and is tied behind her head with a simple wooden hairpin.
"Grandma." Qin Mian stood up and went to support the old lady.
The old lady had a smile in her eyes, patted Qin Mian's hand gently, and said gently: "If you want to blame, blame A-Lin. A-Lin is busy all year round and doesn't know how to spend more time with Qin Mian."
Qin Mian was slightly embarrassed, knowing that if he pulled it back and forth, it would get on her body.
"Mianmian, go upstairs with grandma and ask your grandpa to scold Alin. Grandma just found something while cleaning up the house some time ago. You can try it out."
Qin Mian knew that the old lady wanted to get rid of her. It was probably that her grandfather and Huo Lin wanted to talk about work. She nodded and obediently helped her grandma go upstairs.
The decoration of Huo Mansion is all in retro Chinese style. At a casual glance, one would think that one has entered some ancient deep mansion.
The old lady took out a jade bracelet of excellent quality from an antique box. Looking at the jade bracelet, the old lady's eyes were filled with nostalgia.
"This bracelet was brought as a dowry by your grandfather when I married you." The old lady touched the jade bracelet with a gentle smile on her face, "Mianmian, grandma wants to apologize to you for A-Lin. A-Lin... ugh... "
Grandma wants to give this bracelet to her? And it’s grandma’s dowry? Is this in the plot?
Qin Mian frowned. She was about to divorce Huo Lin. How could she accept grandma's things?
"grandmother……"
The old lady took Qin Mian's hand and did not allow Qin Mian to refuse. She directly put the bracelet on Qin Mian's hand and admired it with satisfaction, "This bracelet is still suitable for young girls like you."
"Grandma, I have this bracelet..."
"Mianmian, I didn't give this bracelet to you because of Alin. It's just that grandma simply likes you. Can't grandma give a gift to the junior she likes?" The old lady interrupted her warmly, pressing her hand. Although the strength is not strong, it has a sense that it cannot be refused.
The words of rejection were stuck in Qin Mian's throat. She opened her mouth and finally said sweetly, "Thank you, grandma."
The old lady held her and talked for a while before taking her downstairs.
Qin Mian looked at the jade bracelet on her wrist and sighed secretly.
Okay, it's the same thing if you give it back to Huo Lin during the divorce.
…
Although it is just an ordinary family banquet, the dishes are also extremely rich.
The Huo family is small. Mr. Huo only raised one son and one daughter. The son is Huo Lin's father. I heard that he was well-educated. Unfortunately, he got into a car accident on the way to attend a company meeting with Huo Lin's mother, and neither of them was killed. He was rescued; and his daughter was married to Hong Kong City and would come back to visit several times a year.
Before Qin Mian married into the Huo family, she also learned about the wealthy family through novels and TV series. When she married into the Huo family, she realized that the novels and TV series were still conservative.
Fortunately, the Huo family did not let many servants serve at the table, which made Qin Mian feel a lot more comfortable.
After dinner, Huo Lin still had work to report to the old man, while Qin Mian accompanied the old lady for a walk in the glass greenhouse.
The flower room of Huo Mansion is very large, and there are many precious and delicate flowers in it. Flowers that look inconspicuous may be the down payment for a house in a prosperous area of Ningcheng.
However, Qin Mian is not a carefully cultivated wealthy daughter. In her eyes, these flowers are just flowers. She doesn't like flowers and she really can't appreciate them.
…
At around eight o'clock in the evening, Huo Lin refused to stay overnight at Huo Mansion on the grounds of work, and took Qin Mian on the return journey.
Shortly after getting in the car, Huo Lin's cold voice broke the deadlock between the two.
"I heard from Anna that you have recently been involved in small animal rescue."
Qin Mian was surprised at first, but soon calmed down. Although Anna was her personal assistant, her boss was still Huo Lin, so she would naturally report her schedule to Huo Lin.
"Well, we're focusing on stray cats first." She nodded.
Huo Lin remembered that Qin Mian had angrily scolded him for playing with his mobile phone at the dinner table. After listening to Anna's report, he realized that the "work" Qin Mian mentioned was the rescue of small animals.
He is allergic to these furry animals and does not like these small animals. Although Huayue spends a large amount of money on charity every year, it has never been involved in animal rescue.
If Qin Mian can keep himself busy, it will be a good thing for him.
“If you need financial or other assistance, please contact Ark.”
Qin Mian gave him a strange look. She didn't know why Huo Lin suddenly became kind-hearted, and she didn't know if grandpa said something to him.
However, she was not some kind-hearted, strong, independent and self-reliant little white flower with boss Wen. Once Huo Lin mentioned it, she immediately agreed.
Anyway, there is no divorce now, so she spent Huo Lin's money and connections.
