Chapter 790 (Page 1/2)

After carefully placing her backpack and the camera in her hand, Lin Man looked around and finally found a relatively comfortable seat.

She walked over slowly, then bent down slowly and sat down gracefully.

Just as Lin Man sat down, a faint and elegant floral fragrance drifted over like a breeze.

Song Jingjing, who was sitting next to her, couldn't help but take a deep breath and asked curiously, "Sister-in-law, did you spray perfume on yourself?

This fragrance is truly unique, but I can’t tell which flower it belongs to. Is it the fragrance of gardenia, the sweet scent of osmanthus, or the rich aroma of magnolia?

Lin Man smiled slightly, wondering in her heart whether she should tell the truth, but finally decided to just tell a lie.

She responded calmly, "I'm not quite sure what brand of perfume this is. I just know it's a gift Qingci brought back for me from Hai City."

In fact, what Lin Man sprayed was the Miss Flower perfume, a well-known brand in later generations. This perfume exudes a charming sweet scent. This high-end fragrance is completely different from the ordinary perfumes commonly seen in department stores.

After hearing this, Song Jingjing curled her lips, revealing a hint of envy and said, "Oh, big brother is so good to you!"

Lin Man quickly smiled and comforted her, "Sister-in-law, don't say that. Your Qingyan treats you very well too."

However, Song Jingjing shook her head disapprovingly and grumbled, "Huh, what's so good about him? If he could be half as good to you as Big Brother, I'd be satisfied."

Lin Man just smiled slightly. She didn't want to express any opinions or comments on how other couples get along and live their lives.

After all, everyone has a different lifestyle. Besides, the relationship between her and Song Jingjing has always been rather dull. They usually just exchange a few simple greetings when they meet, and there is no in-depth communication or close contact between them.

At this moment, Lin Man suddenly stood up and said politely, "Sister-in-law, please sit down for a while. I'll go to the kitchen to see if there's anything I can help with."

However, before she could take a step, Song Jingjing waved her hand and said, "Hey, sister-in-law, brother already said that today is your birthday. You don't have to worry about anything. Just sit here and wait for the delicious food."

After hearing this, Lin Man looked around and suddenly realized that her grandfather didn't seem to be here, so she turned to Song Jingjing and asked:

"Sister-in-law, isn't Grandpa here? Where is he now?"

Song Jingjing thought for a moment, then replied, "Maybe he went to chat with someone or play chess? I didn't see him when I came in."

After receiving this answer, Lin Man nodded to show that she understood.

Then she muttered to herself, "Hmm... Then I'd better go ask Qingci. I was thinking of taking a photo or two of Grandpa as a souvenir." After saying that, she walked towards the kitchen...

Song Jingjing cast her gaze towards the camera placed high up, a hint of anticipation in her eyes. She then called out, "Sister-in-law, can you take a few pictures of me and the children first?"

Facing Song Jingjing's call, Lin Man stopped and after a moment's thought, she responded, "Sister-in-law, why don't we wait for Grandpa to come back before taking a photo together? Grandpa is the head of the family, and I'd like to take this first photo of him."

Song Jingjing cursed in her heart: "What a flatterer! He only knows how to please Grandpa. What's so arrogant? It's just a camera, right? I'll ask Huo Qingyan to buy her one for her birthday."

Lin Man had no intention of chatting with Song Jingjing at all, and strode towards the kitchen in the backyard.

Huo Qingci was roasting lamb in the backyard. When he saw Lin Man coming, he strode over to her and said softly, "Manman, please don't stay here!

I'm still roasting lamb, and it's greasy everywhere, and the smell of cooking fumes is particularly strong! If you stay any longer, I'm afraid your beautiful clothes will be stained with the unpleasant smell of cooking fumes."

Huo Qinghuan, who was standing by, quickly agreed after hearing what his elder brother said, "That's right, sister-in-law, why don't you go out and sit down and rest for a while? I can help you here, why do you have to do anything?"

Besides, my sister-in-law is dressed so brightly today, please don't get this beautiful dress dirty!"
