Chapter 230: Released (Page 1/2)
Huo Yining pouted and asked, "Is my brother going to be a military doctor like Dad? Then what do I want to do when I grow up?"
Huo Qinghuan said, "You will be a soldier when you grow up, because when you were a child, you grabbed a wooden gun during the Zhou ceremony."
Huo Yining asked again: "Why do I only grab one thing during the "Zhuazhou" ceremony? If I were to do it again, I would grab everything on the table."
Xiao Ya laughed out loud. Her eldest grandson was so adorable! Ling Fei looked at her two nephews and couldn't help but touch her belly. Her aunt had given her ten doses of Chinese medicine for fertility. She had finished all of them, so why wasn't she pregnant yet?
Seeing his wife's distraction, Huo Qingyan knew she was sad about her pregnancy again. He walked over to her and whispered, "Fei Fei, An An is one year old today. You should hug him more. Maybe you can get pregnant next month."
Ling Fei thought about it and decided to give it a try.
Huo Junshan put away all the items used for the "Zhuazhou" ceremony on the table. Huo Qingyan walked over to Xiao Ya and stretched out his hand to Huo Yian, saying, "An'an, uncle is here to hold you."
Huo Yian grinned and said incoherently: "Dudu."
Huo Qingyan held Huo Yian in his arms and pointed at Ling Fei and asked, "An'an, this is your aunt. Tell your uncle when your aunt is going to give birth."
Huo Yian looked at Ling Fei, smiled, clapped his hands and said, "Baby...Meimei..."
Huo Qinghuan suddenly said, "Second brother, is Second Sister-in-law pregnant? An An said Second Sister-in-law is pregnant with my sister!"
Huo Qingyan glared at Huo Qinghuan angrily, "What are you talking about? When did An An say that your sister-in-law is pregnant with your sister? Your sister-in-law is not pregnant yet. Don't talk nonsense!"
Huo Qinghuan pouted slightly and muttered, "An An clearly said 'baby' and 'sister' just now. Doesn't this mean that the baby in my second sister-in-law's belly is a girl?" There was a hint of certainty in her tone.
At this time, Huo Yining suddenly interrupted and said, "Mom said she would give birth to a sister for us, so my brother said the baby is a sister." The little guy blinked his bright eyes and explained seriously.
Huo Qingyan was instantly cheered up when he heard this, and praised: "Ningning is really smart and sensible! Then Ningning, can you tell uncle whether auntie will give birth to a brother or a sister in the future?"
Huo Yining answered without hesitation: "My brother likes a sister, so let aunt give birth to a sister!
And it would be best if you could have two more children, so that you can give my mother a sister and she won’t have to have another baby. Because my father said giving birth is very painful.”
After saying this, Huo Yining showed an innocent smile, and everyone was amused by what he said.
Huo Qingyan was almost choked to death, feeling like a mouthful of blood was stuck in his throat. He was so angry that he really wanted to slap the kid's butt hard.
He sighed helplessly and said unhappily, "My dear nephew, your opinion is good. Please don't express your opinion anymore."
Huo Qinghuan also smiled and said, "Second brother, both of my nephews said so. Maybe Second Aunt is really pregnant. It seems that I will have a niece next year."
Xiao Ya wanted to ask Ling Fei whether she had her period this month, but she was too embarrassed to ask because there were so many people around. Forget it, she decided to go back and ask!
After Huo Yian caught Zhou, Huo Junshan looked at his watch. It was almost nine o'clock. He wondered when Qingci and his wife would come back.
Thinking of what just happened, Huo Junshan felt a little uneasy. He said to his father Huo Li nervously, "Dad, why don't I go to the reconnaissance department to see what's going on?"
"No! None of you are allowed to step forward in this matter. If you interfere too much, it will make them suspect that the spies are really related to our family." Huo Li replied firmly.
After hearing such a heavy topic, the joy originally brought by the children's one-year-old celebration disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Xiao Ya's face was also filled with worry. She turned to Liao Sijie and said, "It's getting late, Sijie. Take Ningning back to the room and put him to sleep first. I'll put Anan to sleep."
Liao Sijie nodded and said softly, "Okay, Auntie. But I still need to wash their faces and soak their feet first. I'll go get some hot water."

At this time, Huo Yining on the side pouted and muttered: "I have to wait for my mother to come back before I go to bed!"
Junshan waved at Huo Yining, "Ningning, come here. Your parents are working overtime and won't be back until very late. If you're tired, go to sleep first and don't wait for them."
Liao Sijie brought some hot water and took Huo Yining to wash her face and feet. Xiao Ya looked at the sleepy little grandson in Ling Fei's arms and said, "Let me hold him! Feifei, you go back with Qingyan and Qinghuan first!"
Ling Fei asked: "What about you guys?"
"We'll wait for your eldest brother and sister-in-law to come back before we go back."
Huo Li said, "It's getting late. Qingyan, take your favorite and Qinghuan back first."
Huo Qingyan had no choice but to take his younger brother and wife back first. Since his son and daughter-in-law had not returned yet, Huo Junshan and Xiao Ya naturally could not go back. They had to wait for news here.
Lin Man and Huo Qingci were taken to different rooms. The investigator asked them how they discovered Su Yingzi's abnormality. They both said in unison that Su Yingzi had secretly entered her grandfather's room to look for something.
They also said that she was drunk and kept talking in Sakura Mandarin, so they suspected she was a spy. As for the rest, they didn't say anything, after all, the more they said, the more mistakes they made.
It was impossible for Lin Man to tell Su Yingzi that she had given her a hallucinogen because the effect would have worn off in half an hour.
When the investigator found out he couldn't get anything out of them, he took the investigation report and left. The two stayed in the investigation room for several hours and were not released until twelve o'clock.
The two dragged their tired bodies back home and opened the door, but were surprised to find that their parents were sleeping in Liao Sijie's bed, while Liao Sijie was sleeping in their room with her two children.
Huo Qingci gently pushed the door open, fearing to wake the people inside. However, when he walked into the room, Huo Junshan suddenly sat up, quickly turned on the light, and asked nervously, "You're back? How's the investigation going?"
Huo Qingci took a deep breath, tried to keep his voice calm, and replied:
"Manman and I were questioned separately, and we recounted in detail what happened tonight.
After that, we waited in the interrogation room until midnight, and then we were released.”
Huo Junshan frowned and continued to ask, "What about your fourth uncle?" There was a hint of worry in his tone.
Huo Qingci shook his head and said helplessly, "Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt may have to spend the night there. As for Wen Jing, he will probably be detained for a few days.
He can only be released after the entire matter has been thoroughly investigated and proven to have no connection with the spies."
At this time, Xiao Ya beside him also climbed up, her face full of worry.
She sighed and said softly, "Wen Jing is such an unlucky child!
Although he was innocent, he was dating a spy after all. Even if he was unaware of it, this incident would definitely be recorded in his file.
Alas, I hope he won’t be affected too much in the future!”
After Xiao Ya finished speaking, Huo Li put on a coat and walked out of the room, "Qingci, why are you back so late?"
Huo Qingci pulled out a stool and sat down. "Grandpa, after those people finished questioning us, they threw Manman and me into our respective interrogation rooms. At 11:30, they came back to try to get us to talk. We repeated what happened tonight, and they finally let us go."
Huo Li shook his head and sighed, "Alas! If Wen Jing wasn't involved in this matter, you two would have done a great deed by catching the spy. Now that Wen Jing is involved, I hope nothing goes wrong on his end."
Huo Junshan echoed, "Yeah, I hope Wen Jing doesn't get into trouble. How could he be so unlucky to be dating a spy?"
"Okay, Junshan, let's talk about it tomorrow. You guys will sleep here tonight. Qingci, go back to your room and sleep with me. Xiaoman, go back to your room and sleep with Sijie and the child."
Huo Qingci and Lin Man replied in unison: "Okay, Grandpa!"
