Huo Yao tilted her head and looked at Huo Yulin with her bright eyes. "Brother Yulin, are you going back to Uncle's place?"
"Mm." Huo Yulin's eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't say anything else.
Although Big Uncle had specifically instructed him to bring his little sister back with him, when he thought about his parents … Forget about bringing her back, he was afraid that he would be chased out of the house as soon as he spoke.
Huo Yao was still mulling over the fact that she couldn't get through to him. For some reason, she felt a little frustrated. However, it was already too late. She had no choice but to try again tomorrow morning.

The next morning.
After breakfast, Huo Yao took out her phone and called the old lady.
No one picked up the first time.
After the second ring, the call was finally picked up.
Huo Yao opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, a voice came from the other end of the line.
"Don't you find it annoying? Did you call my mom to continue cheating us of our family's things? "
The person who picked up the phone was none other than his former foster mother, He Xiaoman. Her tone was particularly unpleasant, even subconsciously filled with resentment.
Huo Yao frowned. She did not care about what He Xiaoman said. Instead, she asked patiently. "Where's the old lady?"
"Why should I tell a thief like you?" He Xiaoman sneered. She still couldn't understand why the old lady would give the ancestral jade to an adopted daughter.
It was one thing to give it to him, but did the other party appreciate his kindness? In the end, the Lu family was still in shambles.
From the moment He Xiaoman picked up the phone, Huo Yao knew that it was impossible to talk to the old lady today.
She hung up the phone.
He Xiaoman, who was on the other side of the phone, wanted to say something. When she heard the sound of the phone being hung up, her ugly face became even uglier.
What kind of ungrateful thing was this?
Is this how you greet the old lady when you call her?
It was really a waste for the old lady to talk about it day and night.

After Huo Yao hung up, she sat quietly on the couch and wondered why He Xiaoman picked up the phone.
He Xiaoman was not a person who liked to stay in the countryside, and it was impossible for the old lady to go back to the Lu Family to be taken care of. What He Xiaoman said just now was also very strange.
Huo Yao frowned. She contemplated for a moment before she switched on her phone and changed the flight to the next morning.
After changing her ticket, she went back upstairs and packed her suitcase. She also put away the medicine and incense that she had specially made for the old lady.
In the afternoon, Min Yu gave Huo Yao a call and asked her to go to the entrance to pick up some stuff.
"Why did you buy so many?" asked Huo Yao as she looked at the huge cardboard boxes placed by his feet.
"Both Uncle and Auntie have them." Min Yu showed Huo Yao the labels on the packaging in case she took the wrong one.
Huo Yao crossed her arms and sighed softly. "It's so nice to be rich and generous."
Min Yu raised his brow. "If you want it, what's mine is yours."
Huo Yao touched her nose and glanced at him angrily. "Stop flirting with me. Please maintain your aloof persona."
Min Yu smiled. He looked up at the front door and asked casually. "Are you home alone?"
"Not really. The nanny is always around," replied Huo Yao.
Min Yu turned to pick up the cardboard boxes by his feet. "Let's go. I'll bring them in for you."
Huo Yao could tell what he was thinking right away, but she did not expose him.
They entered the house together.
