Chapter 579: Give Her a Raise? (Page 1/2)

At this moment, Song Jingjing was extremely flustered, with beads of sweat appearing on her forehead. She stared at Tang Xue, afraid that she would say that she was unwilling to stay and work.

Finally, she couldn't hold back her anxiety any longer and said, "Xiaoxue, don't worry, as long as the two children are born safely, I will definitely not treat you unfairly!

I will have a good discussion with your cousin's husband tonight and will definitely give you a substantial increase in salary and benefits.

Besides, you've always wanted to find a suitable partner in the army, so leave it to me. I'll have Qingyan help you carefully arrange a good young man."

Tang Xue couldn't help but feel a little shaken after hearing what Song Jingjing said.

She thought to herself that if Song Jingjing could really fulfill these promises, not only give her a raise but also help introduce her to a date, then she might be able to work here for another year or two.

After getting married, I will consider whether to leave here and seek other opportunities.

Thinking of this, Tang Xue responded softly, "Sister Jing, let's discuss this matter in detail after my cousin-in-law comes back!"

However, at this moment, Song Jingjing's originally rosy face instantly turned pale as paper. She felt a dull pain in her chest, as if a heavy burden was pressing on her. Then a strong surge of blood and energy surged up, making her unable to suppress the urge to vomit.

"yUe～～!" With a dry heave, Song Jingjing no longer cared about anything else. She turned around and staggered towards the door. After pushing it open, she fell straight onto the bed as if she had lost her support.

Seeing this, Tang Xue hurried forward and asked with concern, "Sister Jing, how are you? Do you want me to get you a glass of water?"

But at this time, Song Jingjing was so uncomfortable that she couldn't even say a word. She could only wave her hand weakly to indicate that she didn't need it for the time being.

"Xiaoxue, please help me take care of Feifei and Zizi. I'm going to lie down for a while."

"Oh well!"

When Huo Qingyan got home from get off work, Song Jingjing told him immediately, "Qingyan, I'm really pregnant, and I'm pregnant with two children."

"Really? Then don't have another baby after this one. If you have another, there won't be enough room in our house."

Song Jingjing was immediately unhappy when she heard this. "Qingyan, aren't you happy for me that I'm pregnant with two sons at once? Our house is small, but if we squeeze in, it's still big enough for us."

"How did you know you were pregnant with two sons? Did the doctor tell you?"

Song Jingjing shook her head. "The doctor didn't say it directly. They say sour food means a boy, spicy food means a girl. He told me to eat more sour food. Isn't this hinting that I'm pregnant with a boy this time?"

Huo Qingyan did not show much concern or attention as to whether his wife was pregnant with a son or a daughter.

In contrast, he was more concerned about Song Jingjing's physical health.

After all, she had a tragic experience. When Ling Fei became pregnant with twins, she accidentally fell on a snowy day, which led to the unfortunate death of the fetus in her womb.

If the two children had been able to be born safely, perhaps he and Ling Fei would not have parted ways and ended up in divorce.

And now, Song Jingjing is also pregnant with twins.

Huo Qingyan secretly made up his mind that this time he must carefully protect his wife and unborn children.

Huo Qingyan looked at Song Jingjing tenderly and asked softly, "Jingjing, have you decided when you're going to officially start your vacation? You know, you're pregnant with two babies at once, so you need to be extra careful in all aspects!"

Song Jingjing smiled slightly and responded, "I've thought about it. I won't take a break this year. I'll wait until June next year to start my vacation, and then take half a year at a time.

We can take advantage of next summer to send Zizi and Feifei to the nursery together, so that we can have some more ease.

By the way, Qingyan, can you introduce Xiaoxue to someone? She said she will go back for a blind date during the New Year, and if she finds someone she likes and wants to get married, she won’t come back.

After hearing this, Huo Qingyan suddenly realized that Tang Xue had decided to quit because he knew his wife was pregnant with twins and was worried that taking care of them would be too tiring.

He turned to look at his wife Jingjing and asked doubtfully, "Jingjing, do you think that if you introduce Tang Xue to someone, you can successfully keep her to help with the work?"

Song Jingjing frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "What else? How about we give her another five yuan raise? We can't just watch her go!"

After all, Zizi and Feifei still need someone to take care of them. What will happen if Tang Xue leaves? And I have two little ones waiting to be born in my belly!

Do you want me to be like my sister-in-law, throw away the iron rice bowl that I worked so hard to get, and stay at home to take care of the children wholeheartedly?

When we get old, others will be able to enjoy their retirement with their pensions, but my sister-in-law can only watch helplessly."

Huo Qingyan explained, "My sister-in-law had no choice but to quit her stable job as a teacher because she had no one to help take care of the children."

At this point, Huo Qingyan couldn't help but sigh, and continued, "Actually, my sister-in-law had no choice but to resign! My mother was too busy at the time and couldn't spare any time, and my sister-in-law's family couldn't be relied upon."

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Song Jingjing couldn't help but retort, "What do you mean by 'I can't rely on my family'? It's obviously my sister-in-law who doesn't want to interact with her family and insists on relying on my brother for her life."

But then again, luckily my eldest brother has a decent salary and good benefits. If he only had 20 or 30 yuan a month, I don’t know how he would support a family of four!

Song Jingjing felt that Lin Man was short-sighted and had ruined a good iron rice bowl. She probably couldn't stand hardship and didn't want to work at all, so she didn't want to be a teacher!

She has family members on her mother's side but they don't recognize her, and her biological father, a high-ranking official, doesn't recognize her either. She's just suffering for no reason. I really don't know what's going on in her head.

Huo Qingyan disagreed. He retorted, "My eldest brother and his wife live a comfortable life. They have a good meal three times a day, with a combination of meat and vegetables, and never lack meat, chicken, and fish. Look at the children in their family. Have you ever picked up anyone's old clothes?"

Song Jingjing wore a sardonic smile and said coldly, "Humph, that's all thanks to Grandpa! I'm afraid all of Grandpa's pension has been spent on them these past few years, right?"

Hearing this, Huo Qingyan was unhappy, "Who said that Grandpa's money was used on them? Have you forgotten?

When the family was divided up before, grandpa took out all the money he had saved with great difficulty and divided it equally!

Every family received several thousand yuan, and each of our grandchildren received several hundred yuan."

He paused, then continued, "As for the pension from these years, I guess Grandpa is still saving it.

Maybe he wanted to save it for his most beloved nephew Huo Yining to marry in the future. After all, you know that Grandpa loves Ningning very much!

Song Jingjing curled her lips and responded with disdain, "Tsk, your grandfather is so partial! Among his sons, he favors his father-in-law, and among his grandsons, he favors his eldest brother. Now, even his great-grandson only favors Huo Yining."

Huo Qingyan shook his head and corrected her, "Oh, you're wrong. If we talk about Grandpa's favorite son, it's not my dad, but my uncle.

It's a pity that my uncle passed away so early. Later, there was no other choice but to let my eldest brother be adopted under my uncle's name. So strictly speaking, my eldest brother is nominally my uncle's child."

Song Jingjing thought, Grandpa is partial to me. In fact, everyone in the Huo family, young and old, must have some opinions about it, but they just don't dare to say it in front of Grandpa.

"Grandpa is so partial. He gave the huge courtyard to your brother and left it empty even though he didn't live in it. He wouldn't rent it out."

"Jingjing, don't say that. If Grandpa hears you, you'll be in big trouble. My brother has been taking care of Grandpa all these years. My dad and my fourth and younger uncles haven't cared about him.

They would only visit grandpa during the Chinese New Year and other holidays. They would not go there on ordinary days unless there was something important.

Look, who is more filial than my eldest brother and his wife? They have taken care of my grandfather for so many years. Look, my grandfather has a rosy complexion and looks much younger than other old men of the same age.

My grandfather is over seventy years old, and he is very good at boxing. I think he can live to be over ninety without any problem at all."

Song Jingjing did not deny that her sister-in-law took good care of her grandfather. If it were her, she would definitely not be able to take good care of him.

The reason why she took such good care of Grandpa was because he had a high pension, at least two or three hundred a month, right? Even higher than her husband's salary.

Song Jingjing pursed her lips, "I'm not a fool. When Fourth Aunt and Second Aunt talked to me about this, I didn't agree with them and even spoke up for my eldest sister-in-law. I was just telling you about it.

Okay, let’s not talk about your grandpa anymore. What do you think Xiaoxue should do about this?”

Huo Qingyan thought for a moment and said, "You can increase her salary. Since you're pregnant with twins, give her an extra ten yuan each time. As for finding a partner, forget it!"

Huo Qingyan suddenly thought of his cousin Liao Sijie, who was married to his good brother Lin Jing because of his matchmaking.

Later, Ling Fei somehow caused her to have a miscarriage, and in the end, she also caused Ling Fei to have an induced abortion, causing his relationship with Lin Jing to become worse than before.
