Chapter 856 (Page 1/2)

The father standing by looked at the scene in front of him, shook his head helplessly, sighed heavily and said: "I have said long ago that you can't give him money, absolutely not give him money!

It's all because you, as a mother, are too soft-hearted. As the saying goes, a loving mother often spoils her child. Look at what's happening now? We used the money we worked so hard to earn to buy him food, and what happened?

This kid actually bought some kind of explosive gun and used it to fry fish! Not only did he not catch any fish, but he also blew his own hand off! Humph, do you feel the pain now? You have to bear it even if it hurts!"

The woman glanced at him fiercely, "Did I ask my son to buy thunder and firecrackers? I only gave him fifty cents to buy some melon seeds, but who knew he went with Da Qiangzi to buy thunder and firecrackers?"

"If you don't give him money, nothing will happen."

"Why blame me if he wants to buy it himself? How could I know that there would be firecrackers available for purchase at this time?"

"Have you forgotten Dachuan? His son lost his eyes while playing with rockets."

The couple was arguing with each other, and the crying of the child was really overwhelming.

Lin Man couldn't help but frown slightly as she listened to the quarrel between the couple in the next bed.

Huo Qingci also looked over there, gently pulled the corner of Lin Man's clothes, and whispered: "It's a bit noisy, you go and persuade them."

Lin Man thought that the child was crying in pain, and the adults were also quarreling, which would definitely affect Huo Qingci's rest, so she decided to go over and persuade them.

"Family members of the next bed, please don't rush to make a fuss. The child is in pain. Why don't you ask the nurse if you can use medicine to relieve the pain?" Lin Man said softly.

Just as the man was about to speak, the woman interrupted him, saying, "Sister, you're right. Look at his father, he's just mean."

The man blushed and said, "I'm worried too. All the money in the family has been spent on this. How are we going to make a living in the future?"

At this time, the nurse came in to check on the boy's condition and told them that there would be painkillers in the drip.

Lin Man returned to Huo Qingci, who suddenly said, "That child is a bit naughty, just like Wenwen."

"Actually, all three of our sons are a bit naughty."

"Yeah, Ningning, An'an, and Wenwen are all naughty, but luckily Xinxin is obedient."

At this, the two smiled at each other. The bed next to them also quieted down. The man patted the child's head guiltily, while the woman gently fed the child canned food. The nurse gave the child an IV drip.

The ward temporarily returned to calm, with only the sound of medicine dripping.

Since her mother-in-law offered to be responsible for cooking dinner, Lin Man stayed in the hospital ward with Huo Qingci for the entire afternoon.

Time flowed slowly, and at a slightly boring moment, Lin Man took out a ball of soft wool and several slender bamboo needles from her bag.

She already had a plan in mind and wanted to knit a new and warm pair of woolen trousers for Huo Qingci with her own hands.

After all, he accidentally injured his leg this time, and the cold winter is coming, so he must take comprehensive warming measures and take good care of the injured leg.

Huo Qingci lay quietly on his side on the bed, turned his head slightly, and his eyes fell gently on Lin Man.

He saw her holding the bamboo needle skillfully and carefully knitting the woolen trousers stitch by stitch. Her focused expression made him feel extremely happy and at ease.

"Manman, by next summer, I should be able to transfer back to Beijing. From now on, our family will never be separated again." Huo Qingci said softly, his words full of longing for a better life in the future.

Since the sudden car accident, he has become particularly precious about life, and has also learned to cherish every warm moment spent with his family.

Work used to be his top priority, but now, those busy days are a thing of the past.

Now, he just wants to stay with his family peacefully and no longer be away from them for work.

As the sun set, its golden afterglow cast a shadow over the hospital corridor. Xiao Ya carefully carried the carefully prepared meal and slowly walked towards the ward.

When she gently pushed open the door, she saw Lin Man sitting by the bed knitting woolen trousers.

When Lin Man saw her mother-in-law coming, she quickly put down the needle and thread in her hand, stood up and went to greet her, taking the lunch box from Xiao Ya's hand.

After putting the lunch box back on the bedside table, she handed the snacks and biscuits she had bought at the supply and marketing cooperative to her mother-in-law and said, "Mom, give these to Rourou. These are special snacks and biscuits that I picked out specifically at the supply and marketing cooperative."

Xiao Ya gently shook her head and declined, "Xiao Man, let's leave these for Qing Ci to eat. He still needs to recuperate."

Lin Man insisted, "No need, Mom. Take it back to Rourou. There's no TV here, and she'll be bored staying in the room all by herself. If she gets fussy, just give her something to eat. Oh, by the way, Mom, Dad doesn't have a stomachache or diarrhea anymore, right?"

Xiao Ya nodded with relief and replied, "Well, I'm much better after taking the medicine. He even asked me to tell you that he will go shopping for groceries tomorrow and wanted to ask what you two would like to eat." As she spoke, her gaze turned to Huo Qingci lying on the hospital bed.

Lin Man then turned to look at Huo Qingci and asked softly, "Qingci, is there anything you particularly want to eat tomorrow?"

Huo Qingci raised his head slightly and responded gently: "Anything is fine, I'm not picky about food."

Hearing this, Xiao Ya smiled and nodded, expressing her agreement: "Okay, then let your dad buy some fresh vegetables and meat.

Manman, you can sleep a little longer tomorrow morning and don’t have to get up so early. Your dad will bring you breakfast after he buys the groceries.”

Lin Man looked at Xiao Ya gratefully, her eyes filled with happiness and emotion, and said, "Okay, thank you, Mom. You've worked so hard."

Xiao Ya smiled lovingly, then picked up the snacks and biscuits that Lin Man bought, turned around and left the ward.

As soon as her mother-in-law left, Lin Man opened all the lunch boxes and prepared to eat with Huo Qingci.

At this time, the child sleeping in the next bed started to make a fuss again, "Mom, I want to eat, I want to eat braised pork."

The woman looked at her husband and said, "Dad, go to the cafeteria and buy some food! Our son is hungry."

"knew."

As soon as the man left, the child started crying again, "Mom, I'm so hungry, I want to eat now."

"Son, your dad is going to get you some food. Please wait patiently."

The boy looked at Lin Man and Huo Qingci who were eating, swallowed, and looked at his mother aggrievedly.

The child's mother could only continue to coax him. Huo Qingci said, "Manman, we've already eaten. Give him an apple to eat!"

Lin Man put down her lunch box and chopsticks, took an apple from her net bag and brought it to the next bed. She handed the apple to the boy's mother.

"Your child is hungry, have an apple first!"

The woman waved her hand and stammered, "No thanks. Apples are expensive, keep them for yourself."

"We still have apples. You can take this apple and eat it." Seeing that the woman refused to take it, Lin Man directly stuffed the apple into the boy's uninjured hand.

She nodded to him, then returned to the folding bed and continued eating her meal.

The little boy raised the apple towards Lin Man who was eating, "Thank you, Auntie!"

Lin Man smiled faintly, "You're welcome."

Lin Man thought the little boy would be very noisy at night, but he wasn't. Instead, the little girl in the innermost bed was humming all night.

And it seemed like her family wasn't around, leaving her alone in the hospital.

In the following days, Huo Qingci continued to stay in the hospital for treatment and observation.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day for Huo Qingci to be discharged from the hospital. After a comprehensive evaluation by the doctor, it was confirmed that he had basically recovered and could be discharged and go home to recuperate.

It was a sunny day with a gentle breeze.

Lin Man personally supported Huo Qingci and took her parents-in-law and sister-in-law into the car to return to the villa.

As the car slowly drove into the city center, Huo Junshan saw rows of magnificent and stylish Western-style buildings through the car window. He couldn't help but widen his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

He thought to himself, Hai City is indeed more prosperous than Beijing City.

Lin Man led everyone out of the car in advance. After her feet were firmly on the ground, she picked up the luggage bag with swift movements.

At the same time, Huo Junshan held the handle of the heavy suitcase tightly with one hand, and carefully supported his eldest son beside him with the other hand.

Xiao Ya followed them closely, carrying the luggage in one hand and holding her little daughter in the other.

In this way, the group slowly walked towards the magnificent courtyard not far away.

Soon, they arrived at the big iron gate of the western-style building.

Huo Qingci took out a key from his pocket and gently inserted it into the door lock. With a slight "click", the door slowly opened.

As soon as she entered the yard, Lin Man turned to look at Huo Qingci and asked in confusion, "Qingci, where is the uncle who usually guards the yard? Why can't I see him?"

Huo Qingci smiled slightly and explained patiently: "Oh, that uncle was sick, so his family took him home to enjoy his old age!

Don't worry, although there is no housekeeper here now, no one will dare to come and pick the lock and steal.

After all, the Housing Authority is located nearby, and with them watching over it, there will definitely be no problem with safety."

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

At this moment, Huo Junshan was completely attracted by the quiet and beautiful ocean-style building in front of him.

He opened his eyes wide and his mouth slightly open, as if he had seen some rare treasure. For a moment, he didn't know how to describe his feelings at the moment.

It took him a long time to come back to his senses. He thought that if he had any questions, he should go to his son's house first and ask him.

So everyone continued to move forward, passing through the beautiful garden with colorful flowers and green grass, and finally arrived at the main building of the stylish villa.

Huo Qingci took out the key again and opened the door skillfully. Then, he took a deep breath and pushed the slightly heavy door open with both hands.

Lin Man put down her luggage and helped Huo Qingci in first, then came out to get the luggage bag placed aside.

Huo Junshan followed into the hall in a daze, carrying his suitcase. He stared at the exquisite decorations around him and the spacious and bright hall, sighing in his heart.

Finally, unable to contain his curiosity, he couldn't help but ask Huo Qingci, "Qingci, I can't believe you really bought such a beautiful house?"

Just as Huo Qingci was about to answer his father's question, Xiao Ya suddenly interrupted and said, "Junshan, of course Qingci bought this house! You kept saying that he rented it."

Huo Junshan felt awkward when he heard his wife say this. He subconsciously touched his nose and quickly explained, "Oh, I'm sorry, son. I was just impatient and spoke too quickly..."

Seeing this, Huo Qingci smiled slightly, gently put down the crutches in his hand, then reached out and patted the sofa beside him, motioning his parents to sit down first.

Then, he said slowly, "Dad, Mom, don't worry, everyone sit down and rest for a while. We'll talk about this house later."
