Chapter 498: My Husband Only Likes Other People's Daughters? (Page 1/2)

Seeing that Song Jingjing looked unhappy, Lin Man picked up Huo Yixin and stuffed her into Huo Qingci's arms. "Qingci, you hold Xinxin. I'll go back to the room and get some more candy."

Huo Qingci took his daughter in his arms and handed her a piece of frozen rice candy from the fruit plate. "Xinxin, do you want some frozen rice candy?"

"Thank you, Dad. Xinxin doesn't want to eat frozen rice candy. Xinxin wants to eat orange jelly candy."

"Mom has got it for you. Warm yourself by the fire first. Your hands are so cold. Were you playing in the snow with your brother just now?"

"No, I was just watching my brother build a snowman."

Huo Qingci glanced at Huo Yining and coaxed her in a low voice, "Xinxin, be good. Let's stay home and warm ourselves by the fire. Don't go play in the snow with your brother. You'll get sick if you play in the snow, and you'll need a shot."

Huo Yixin nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "Dad, Xinxin is very good and doesn't want to play in the snow."

Huo Qingyan looked at his well-behaved and sensible niece sitting in his eldest brother's arms, and his heart softened. He wished this was his daughter.

He looked at his daughter in his wife's arms. She used to be either eating or sleeping, but now she is different. She refuses to sleep at night and wants someone to hold her. She starts crying when someone puts her down.

She will cry if she is in a hurry to drink milk, cry when she needs to pee, and cry when adults speak loudly.

Tang Xiaomi went back home to celebrate the New Year yesterday. He didn't sleep all night last night and walked around with her in his arms.

My sister-in-law also gave birth to a daughter, and Jingjing also gave birth to a daughter. Why is there such a big difference?

"Brother, did Xinxin have trouble sleeping when she was little?"

"No, Xinxin and the others are easy to take care of. What's wrong? Is your Zizi difficult to take care of?"

Huo Qingyan pouted and said, "This child was fine for the first half month. She ate and slept, then slept and ate. But I don't know what's wrong with her these days. She keeps crying. I held her and rocked her all night last night."

After Huo Qingyan said this, Xiao Ya asked worriedly, "What's wrong with Zizi? Is she feeling unwell?"

Huo Qingyan wanted to explain, but Song Jingjing stepped forward and explained awkwardly, "Mom, Zizi is fine. Don't listen to Qingyan's nonsense."

At this time, Lin Man came out with candies and nuts, grabbed a handful and added them to the fruit bowl, then carried those things back to the room.

Huo Qingci took two orange gummies from the fruit plate and handed them to his daughter. Huo Yichen saw so many candies on the fruit plate and stretched out his hand to grab some. Seeing this, Huo Qingyan also took two from the fruit plate for him.

As a result, the little guy looked unhappy and twisted around on Huo Qingyan, "Daddy, I want more."

Huo Qingyan said fiercely, "Take it after you finish eating."

Huo Yichen burst into tears after being scolded, and when he cried, the daughter in Song Jingjing's arms also started crying.

Huo Junshan advised, "Qingyan, why are you being so mean to Chenchen? If he wants to eat, let him eat."

"Dad, Chenchen ate most of the candies in the fruit bowl. Xinxin and the others didn't eat much. He's a picky eater to begin with, and if he eats candy, he won't eat even more."

Huo Junshan thought that tonight's New Year's Eve dinner was very sumptuous. Xinxin, who was younger than Chenchen, ate a bowl of rice. His daughter-in-law put her daughter down and chased him to feed him, but in the end he didn't eat much.

Mingming Qingyan is one or two centimeters taller than Qingci, but his son is thin and small, and is probably not as tall as Anan, Ningning and Wenwen.

Huo Junshan took a few candies from the fruit plate and handed them to Huo Yichen, coaxing him gently: "Chenchen, after eating these, don't eat any more candy today. Eating too much will cause worms in your teeth."

Huo Yixin, who was eating candy, quickly stuffed another candy in her hand into her father's mouth, "Dad, eat candy. Xinxin doesn't want to eat anymore. Dad, put Xinxin down. Xinxin wants to go draw little flowers with her second brother."

Huo Yian said, "Sister, we won't be drawing for the New Year this year. We have to be obedient, and mom will give us New Year's money later."

Huo Yixin asked Huo Qingci, "Dad, what is New Year's money?"

Huo Qingci knew that his daughter liked to ask questions. In order to reduce trouble, he naturally couldn't talk to her about any evil topics, so he just gave a casual explanation.

"Lucky money is the red envelope given by elders to younger generations during the Chinese New Year."

"Oh, it's a New Year's red envelope. My brother said that if you wish your elders a happy New Year, you will receive a red envelope. Dad, should I kneel down and wish you a happy New Year?"

Huo Qingci thought his daughter was so cute that he even wanted to kneel down to wish him a happy new year. "Xinxin, you don't have to kneel down to wish him a happy new year. Mom and Dad will give you a red envelope too."

Huo Yixin's eyes lit up when she heard what her father said, and she laughed happily: "Okay! Then I won't kneel. The ground is too cold."

At this time, she turned her head and looked at the other elders in the family, her eyes full of expectation. Her eyes were clear and bright, like two shining stars, making people want to get close to her.

Huo Junshan smiled and reached out, touched her head, and said gently: "My dear granddaughter, come to your grandfather to wish him a happy new year tomorrow, and I will give you a big red envelope tomorrow."

After hearing this, Huo Yixin smiled so hard that she couldn't stop, and she danced with joy, blinking her bright eyes and said, "Thank you, Grandpa. When I receive the red envelope, I will buy you some candy later."

Huo Junshan was amused and laughed heartily, his eyes full of doting and love. He stroked Huo Yixin's little head and praised her, "Xinxin is such a well-behaved and sensible child!"

At this moment, Huo Qingyan suddenly became childish and jokingly said, "Xinxin, Second Uncle will also give you a big red envelope tomorrow. Would you like to use the money to buy Second Uncle some candy?"

Huo Yixin shook her head and refused without a second thought, answering seriously, "No, Second Uncle, you just told me not to eat too much candy, otherwise I won't be able to eat. Second Uncle, give me a red envelope tomorrow, and I will buy you a small flower, and we will wear flowers together during the New Year."

Huo Qingci looked at his innocent and lovely daughter in his arms, couldn't help but pinch her chubby little hand, and said gently: "Okay, Xinxin, your second uncle is a gay, he doesn't need to wear flowers."

Huo Qingyan also smiled and coaxed: "If Xinxin likes big red flowers, Second Uncle will take you to buy some."

"No red flowers, Xinxin wants yellow flowers."

"Okay, Uncle Er will buy yellow flowers for Xinxin next time he sees them."

Song Jingjing looked at her whimpering little daughter in her arms, then at her niece, who was laughing so hard at her husband's teasing, and felt a pang of sadness in her heart. Why did Qingyan like his eldest sister-in-law's daughter so much?

"Qingyan, come and hold Zizi. I'll go make her some chrysanthemum crystal."

Huo Qingyan put his son on the ground and took his little daughter from Song Jingjing's arms. Looking at his daughter who was sobbing with her eyes closed, he felt a little overwhelmed.

As soon as Song Jingjing left, Huo Qingyan asked Xiao Ya, "Mom, will my sister cry all night and not sleep at night?"

Xiao Ya looked at her son's blue eyes and knew that he must not have slept well last night. She guessed that her granddaughter must have cried for a hundred days and did not sleep at night.

"Take Zizi to your grandfather's room later and have your eldest brother check to see if there's any wind in Zizi's stomach. Babies will cry and fuss if there's wind in their stomachs, after all, their intestines aren't fully developed yet."

Huo Qingci nodded, "Mom is right. I'll help you check later. If Zizi cries too much, give her some Baoying Powder."
