Chapter 263: Miss Jiao (Page 1/2)
Huo Qingci said bluntly: "You don't eat mutton, but everyone else does. Besides, children can't be picky eaters. If they are picky eaters, they won't grow tall."
Huo Yining pouted and retorted, "Humph, I'm much taller than my brother. When I grow up, I'll definitely be taller than my dad!"
Lin Man glanced at Huo Yining and said calmly, "Little guy, you can't be so rude, and you can't talk back to adults. If Ningning doesn't listen, you can only eat white rice tonight!"
Lin Man's casual words scared Huo Yining enough.
He quickly hugged Lin Man's thighs and said in a childish voice, "Oh, Mom, I was wrong. I will never be picky about food or talk back again. Please forgive me~"
"Okay, then go and apologize to your dad." Lin Man touched Huo Yining's little head.
Huo Yining turned to look at Huo Qingci, and after a slight hesitation, he suddenly gave his father a standard military salute, then bowed deeply, muttering to himself:
"Dad, I'm sorry! I know I was wrong. I shouldn't be picky about food, and I shouldn't talk back to you."
Huo Qingci was really at a loss for words, wondering where on earth did this brat learn all this, saluting and bowing, as if he was holding a memorial service for him.
Huo Li, who was sitting on the sofa warming himself by the fire, smiled and said, "Ningning is really smart. This is a very proper way to show respect. Not bad, not bad."
Huo Qingci looked at his grandfather. Could it be that this kid learned this from his grandfather? Would his grandfather take him to the memorial service?
Lin Man said to Huo Qingci, "Qingci, I've already knitted your sweater. Let me give it to you to try on!"
"Okay, thank you Manman."
Huo Qingci and Lin Man went back to their room to try on sweaters. Huo Qinghuan picked up Huo Yining and sat him on his lap, coaxing him, "Ningning, do you want to go out and play with your uncle? How about I ride my bike and take you to grandma's house?"
Before Huo Yining could say anything, Huo Li directly refused, "Huanhuan, it's cold and windy outside. Don't take Ningning outside. If Ningning catches a cold, your sister-in-law won't have enough time to take care of him."
Huo Qinghuan nodded, "Grandpa, I understand."
Huo Li asked him again, "How are you studying?"
"It's okay. I'm reviewing what I need to review."
"How are your second brother and his wife doing recently?"
Huo Qinghuan was stunned at first, then replied with a smile: "Grandpa, although my second brother and his wife do have some quarrels, they actually have a pretty good relationship.
The second brother takes good care of the second sister-in-law! He listens to her in everything. If she wants to eat something in the middle of the night, the second brother will get up in the middle of the night to make it for her.
Not only that, he also helps his second sister-in-law wash her face and feet every day, and even gives her a leg massage!
Hey, but ever since my second sister-in-law got pregnant, her temper has really gotten worse! She scolds my second brother all the time. One time, when they were washing their feet, my second sister-in-law thought the water was too hot and she kicked my second brother in the face.
Also, my second sister-in-law wanted to eat this, then that. My mother made it for her, but she complained that the taste was not right and said it was not as delicious as the one made by my eldest sister-in-law.
What’s even worse is that she was crying in her room in the middle of the night, saying that her second brother no longer loved her and that he had another woman outside…”
Huo Qinghuan kept talking, completely unaware that Huo Li's expression was becoming increasingly gloomy.
Finally, when he mentioned "Second Sister-in-law" again, Huo Li couldn't help but interrupt and asked, "Huanhuan, has your Second Sister-in-law scolded you like this too?"
Huo Qinghuan took one out, touched his nose awkwardly, and said with a smile:

"Grandpa, my mom said that my second sister-in-law might be pregnant, and the increased hormones have caused her to become emotionally unstable and unable to control herself, which is why she cursed. Mom told me not to bother with her."
Huo Li didn't expect Ling Fei to be such a person. Xiao Man was also young when she married Qing Ci. No matter what, she would not be so willful.
"Huanhuan, you are a good child. Come and live with grandpa during the winter vacation. Don't go back. Let's go back to the courtyard together during the Little New Year."
Huo Qinghuan was so happy to see that his grandfather wanted him to stay. He nodded and said, "Yes, Grandpa, I want to live with you. Living with you will not only provide good food, but also provide peace of mind.
At home, all the delicious food goes to my second sister-in-law, and she's so noisy. She has to hold the bowl when she eats, and needs help pouring water when she drinks. She's like a spoiled little girl.
After listening to his grandson's complaints, Huo Li shook his head and said, "Your second brother has poor taste and has always liked this kind of delicate lady. This is his fate. We don't need to care about him. He brought this upon himself.
Your second sister-in-law seemed carefree and not so spoiled before, why is it that after she got pregnant, she became like that guy surnamed Bai?
Alas, women are so fickle! Huanhuan, you should keep your eyes open when you find a partner in the future. We won't marry Miss Jiao. Marrying Miss Jiao will bring temporary happiness, but in the end, you will be the one who gets tired.
When looking for a partner, look for someone who is mature and sensible. Don't look for an ignorant girl like Miss Jiao.
Feelings are mutual, and couples should learn to understand and care for each other. If only one person in the marriage is giving, the relationship will not last long."
Although Huo Qinghuan didn't understand emotions, he understood these principles, and he also agreed with his grandfather's point of view.
"Grandpa, you are right. When you marry a daughter-in-law, you should marry someone like my eldest sister-in-law, who is virtuous, beautiful, and family-oriented."
Huo Li laughed heartily. "Grandpa will be relieved after he leaves. At least you won't be as confused as your second brother."
Huo Qinghuan actually thought to himself that he didn't plan to get married in the future, but it was not easy to tell this directly to his grandfather for fear that his grandfather would worry about him.
So he could only nod his head to show his agreement with his grandfather, and casually echoed, "Don't worry, Grandpa! I will definitely not be as foolish as my second brother and let a woman bully me."
When Huo Qinghuan thought of the scene where his second brother was kicked in the face by that woman, he felt that he had no masculinity at all.
Look at the eldest sister-in-law. Even when she was pregnant and feeling unwell, she would never kick the eldest brother in the face!
Lin Man pulled Huo Qingci back to the room, carefully closed the door, and took him into the space.
On the other side, Huo Qingci had returned to the bedroom on the second floor of the villa.
When he saw his youngest son sleeping peacefully in bed, his little face red and adorable because of his deep sleep, he couldn't help but whispered:
"Our An An is so pretty! Her rosy little face looks just like a little girl."
Lin Man laughed and teased, "Are you treating our An An like a little girl?"
Huo Qingci smiled and said, "It would be great if An An was really a daughter. That way Man Man wouldn't have to give birth again."
Lin Man waved her hand and said, "It's okay. I'll have another baby. We'll have a daughter no matter what."
Seeing Ling Fei was pregnant with twins, Lin Man wanted twins too. She had medicine in her space, and she could decide whether to have twins, a boy and a girl, or twins. She had no plans to have children for the next few years.
