When cousin Lin Shuang's parents passed away, she was adopted by Lin Man's parents and became the family's darling.
Lin Man, on the other hand, became the sandwiched punching bag,...
Chapter 399: Promise to Help Buy Cotton (Page 1/2)
Six-and-a-half-year-old Zhou Zhou smiled shyly. Zhuo Yue put Huo Yi down and said, "An An, go play with Sister Yuan Yuan. She is a few months older than you."
Huo Yian walked up to Zhou Yuanyuan and called out sweetly, "Sister."
Zhou Yuanyuan hummed, and ignored him. Instead, she ran to Huo Yining, grabbed his hand, and said, "Little brother, I want to play with you."
Lin Man was stunned. Her An An was so well-behaved, but Xiao Yuanyuan didn't like him.
It seems that children like to play with those older than them and dislike those younger than them.
Arriving at the main hall, Lin Man put down the gifts and greeted Zhuo Yue's mother-in-law and sister-in-law.
After saying hello, Zhuo Yue asked the children to eat snacks together, played by himself, and then pulled Lin Man back to the room to chat.
"Xiao Man, I'm telling you, I seem to be pregnant again."
"Ah, you're pregnant?"
"Yes, I plan to have two more children and then no more. Four children are enough."
Lin Man asked Zhuo Yue, "When is your due date?"
"Around Children's Day next year, Xiao Man, when are you planning to have your third child? An An is already over two years old."
"I plan to take care of my body first and then see after the New Year!"
Zhuo Yue whispered in Lin Man's ear: "Xiao Man, if you want to have a daughter, you can try to be on top again."
"Oh, really?"
Lin Man thought that if she wanted to have a daughter, she could just take the pills. Now she was considering whether to have one daughter, two daughters, or twins, a boy and a girl.
Although there is no family tradition of having twins, Lin Man still wants to have twins. She often drinks the medicinal springs in Huo Qingci's space, and her physique is stronger than that of ordinary people.
There shouldn't be any problem with giving birth to twins, and Huo Qingci has healing abilities, so if he's by her side when she gives birth, nothing should happen.
Zhuo Yue pulled Lin Man to sit on the bed, and said with a smile: "My daughter Yuanyuan came this way. This method was taught to me by my colleague. Xiao Man, is your married life harmonious with your husband?"
Lin Man didn't expect that Zhuoyue's colleagues were so open-minded. They even talked about having sex and having children during working hours. It really shows that you can't judge a person by his appearance. Such a serious-looking person is actually like this in private.
Seeing that Lin Man was embarrassed to reply, Zhuo Yue continued, "Oh, you have two children, what's there to be embarrassed about? Do you two have sex frequently?"
Lin Man looked at the floor. Fortunately, it was bluestone, otherwise she would have embarrassedly carved a castle out of it with her little iiOiiO.
Zhuo Yue is such a fierce guy, her man definitely can’t handle it, right?
"Xiao Man, are you embarrassed to answer?"
Lin Man shook her head. "Our relationship is fine, and we have sex as usual."
Zhuo Yue raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean by normal? How many times a week?"
As long as she was at home, not having her period, and he didn't have to work the night shift, they would do it once or twice almost every night. Of course, she wouldn't tell anyone about this.
Lin Man smiled and replied, "Three to four times a week, right? How about you guys?"
"My husband is either full of energy for a few days in a row, or he ignores people for several days. I don't know what's wrong with him.
There was a gay man in our unit who cheated on his wife, and he ended up losing his job and being sent to a remote area for reform.
Lin Man frowned at Zhuo Yue and wondered, could it be that after she got pregnant, she suspected her husband of cheating? Otherwise, why would she bring up her husband?

"Sister Zhuoyue, it's obvious that Section Chief Zhou dotes on you. He probably won't do anything reckless."
"Men are visual animals and only think with their lower body, but our Lao Zhou is still trustworthy. He is a serious person and his men and women are afraid of him."
Lin Man nodded in agreement, "Section Chief Zhou is a good man, Sister Zhuoyue is blessed."
Zhuo Yue stood up and took out two bottles of perfume from the cage box. One bottle exuded the fragrance of osmanthus, and the other bottle was filled with the fragrance of magnolia.
"These two bottles of perfume were bought for me by my husband, but I've never used them much. Xiao Man, which one do you like? I can give it to you."
Lin Man shook her head gently and said, "Sister Zhuoyue, I really don't need it. I rarely use perfume at home. I only spray a little occasionally when I go out in the summer."
Lin Man secretly wondered why Zhuo Yue suddenly wanted to give her perfume. Was it because she had prepared two kilograms of wool yarn for each of her two children today?
In this era, wool yarn was very difficult to buy, and pure wool yarn was even scarcer and more expensive.
At this moment, Zhuo Yue picked up an unopened bottle of magnolia-scented perfume and handed it to Lin Man.
"Xiao Man, you gave Zhou Zhou and Yuan Yuan such beautiful wool yarn, so you should accept this bottle of perfume. After all, it's a domestic product and won't cost much."
Seeing her say that, Lin Man had no choice but to accept it. She had no shortage of perfume in her space, but in this era of domestic products, she had only bought floral water. She would keep this bottle of magnolia perfume for next summer.
"Thank you, Sister Zhuoyue."
"You're welcome. We are good sisters and share happiness. Xiao Man, are you going to buy cotton this year?
My colleague has connections, and if you need it, I can get you a few pounds. Children grow fast, so I need to help her alter her cotton clothes every other day."
"No, thank you. I have a channel to buy cotton. If you need it, I can buy it for you. You don't need cotton tickets, but the price will be a little higher."
The cotton in her space is super long-staple cotton produced by the Doomsday Superpower Team using their superpowers. It is softer than ordinary cotton.
If Zhuo Yue and her friends need it, she can sell dozens of kilograms.
Zhuo Yue's eyes lit up, "Xiao Man, you can really get cotton. My cousin is getting married next year, and my aunt asked me to help her collect cotton tickets. It would be great if you had a way to buy cotton."
Lin Man asked, "How much cotton do you need? I'll ask for you."
"My sister is going to make six quilts for her wedding, and she's also going to have to prepare a cradle quilt for the children, which will probably weigh dozens of kilograms."
"My friend has 100 kilograms of first-grade cotton. If you need it, I can help you keep it."
"Really? That's great! In that case, I'll also need 20 kilograms of cotton to make a new cotton-padded jacket for each of the two children, and two new quilts.
Before I got married, I only had four quilts. My son sleeps alone in the winter, so he needs one as a mattress pad and one as a cover.
I thought that after the baby in my belly is born, my daughter Yuanyuan will also sleep in a separate bed, so I need to prepare two more quilts. "
"Okay, I'll ask my friend to deliver the cotton to my house tomorrow, and you can come pick it up after get off work tomorrow."
"Okay, okay, thank you, Xiaoman."
