Chapter 432: Great Hero (Page 1/2)
As soon as the food was served, Lin Man realized that the dish was not made by Xiao Hua. Even if the ingredients were the same, the dishes made by two different people would definitely be different.
The dishes cooked by Huo Qinghuan looked more appetizing, but Xiao Hua was still reluctant to use oil when cooking. Lin Man reminded her many times. It was better when she was around, but she forgot again when she was not watching over her in the kitchen.
I guess she was used to being frugal at home! Lin Man didn't say anything about her afterwards. The food she cooked tasted pretty good anyway. If it was too bad, she would definitely say it.
When Huo Qingci came back, Huo Li said to him, "Qingci, Qinghuan will come back to the city with me in a few days to stay for half a month. Xiaoman and the others don't want to go over, so you have to take a good look at her."
"Oh, I know."
Huo Qingci looked at Xiao Hua and said, "Xiao Hua, my grandfather and his family are going back to the city to live for a while, so I'll leave Manman and the child in your care.
You can take the two days off this month together with next month, and then you can go back for a few days."
"Uncle, if I don't take a break, can I still get paid for those two days?"
Huo Qingci looked at Lin Man, and Lin Man nodded, "Okay, if you don't take a break, I'll give you two dollars for those two days."
Although her daily salary was less than one dollar, she was promised two days of rest. Since she refused to rest, it was normal to give her a few cents more.
"Auntie, how will my salary be deducted if I ask for leave to go home in the future?"
"It depends on the specific circumstances. If it's not a serious matter, we might deduct the corresponding number of days' salary. But if there are special reasons, we can discuss it. In short, everything is reasonable."
If Xiao Hua does a good job and wants to take a few days off to go home, she will definitely not deduct Xiao Hua's salary, of course, the premise is that Xiao Hua performs well.
If you don't behave well, you will be punished according to the rules and your salary will be deducted as much as you deserve.
Lin Man will not make empty promises to Xiao Hua, she will do what needs to be done in a down-to-earth manner.
After hearing this, Xiao Hua felt much more at ease. She nodded repeatedly, indicating that she understood and was willing to abide by these regulations.
Even if something really happened at her home, she would only be charged 65 cents for each leave she took. Their home was in the western suburbs, so she only needed to take one day off to go back and forth.
Her parents said that she should not take leave unless necessary, and should just work hard for her employer and go home to play for a few days during the New Year.
After dinner, Huo Qingci watched Huo Qinghuan and Xiao Hua cleaning up together, and always felt that something was strange.
Before going to sleep, Huo Qingci asked Lin Man anxiously, "Manman, do you think my brother has hit puberty and is curious about lesbians?"
"What do you mean?"
"Do you think my brother will fall in love with Xiaohua?"
Lin Man chuckled, "Qingci, you're overthinking it. How old are they? I don't think your brother is getting it at all. And you forgot, Xiaohua said it herself these past few days. She came to our house to be a nanny.
The village chief introduced her second son to her, and both families have made an engagement, and they will get married when Xiaohua reaches the age of marriage.
"Well, children in rural areas tend to get married early. If Xiaohua hadn't come to our house as a nanny, she might have gotten married next year."
"Qingci, your brother asked Xiaohua to call him uncle today. Don't worry, your brother will never fall in love too early. If he wanted to, he would have done it long ago.
There was a girl in their class with a melon-seed face and big eyes who was the school's most beautiful girl. Someone stuffed a letter into his desk, but he tore it up right in front of her without even looking at it, like a veteran cadre, advising her to study hard.

Xiao Hua can't be compared with the girl in Huo Qinghuan's class. Not only is she beautiful, but her father is also a cadre.
Xiao Hua has pretty facial features, but her skin is a little wheat-colored, and she is thin and small. Huo Qinghuan definitely doesn't like her.
That guy said that when he gets married at the age of 30, he must find a tall and beautiful wife.
How could he have any feelings for Xiao Hua when he still hadn't figured it out yet? However, the two of them were close in age, so they were afraid that sparks of love would fly if they spent too much time together. So they had to remind Huo Qinghuan that Xiao Hua had a fiancé.
"Qingci, talk to your brother tomorrow about the differences between men and women. Remember to keep a distance. Also, tell him that Xiaohua has a fiancé."
"Well, I have to remind him that although he doesn't have that kind of feeling towards Xiao Hua, he's afraid that Xiao Hua might have that feeling towards him.
Our family will definitely not let Qinghuan marry a girl who only has an elementary school education."
"Yeah, if I hadn't gone to college back then, I guess your parents and your grandfather would have opposed me marrying in, right?"
Huo Qingci hugged Lin Man tightly, rested his chin on her shoulder, and said gently:
"Manman, my mother has always felt that she owes me something, so she really hopes that I can be happy. She fully supports my decision and she won't object to me marrying you.
My father is a reasonable man. As long as you communicate with him sincerely, he will definitely understand and agree with our situation.
As for my grandfather, although he is a bit traditional, he loves me the most and also hopes that I can find my own happiness, so he supports all the decisions I make. "
After hearing this, Lin Man frowned slightly, rolled her eyes at Huo Qingci, and said unhappily:
"Hmph, so if you say so, I should thank you? If it weren't for you as a lobbyist, maybe your family wouldn't even agree to our marriage!"
After saying that, she gently pushed Huo Qingci.
Huo Qingci didn't take it seriously. Instead, he hugged Lin Man tightly, held her face in his hands, and kissed her several times like a chick pecking at rice.
Lin Man's face was covered in saliva. She quickly reached out to push him away and complained coquettishly, "Oh, you're so annoying. You're all saliva..."
However, Huo Qingci did not stop there. He smiled and hugged Lin Man again, looking into her eyes affectionately, and said seriously:
"Manman, meeting you is truly the greatest fortune of my life. I must have done a lot of good things in my past life, so God has blessed me and given me the good fortune to marry someone as outstanding as you in this life."
"That's so corny. Okay, let's not talk about the past. I've already married into your Huo family, and they can't change it even if they don't want to."
"Manman, my family is not unwilling."
Yes! Her parents-in-law and grandfather didn't say anything, but Lin Man knew that according to everyone's opinion, she was definitely not worthy of Huo Qingci.
At that time, in the eyes of outsiders, she was just an orphan without a father or mother, who didn't know who her parents were.
Fortunately, Huo Qingci's family loved her, so they loved her and treated her well.
She knew clearly that not only was she good-looking and had attended college for two years, but she had also given birth to two sons for Huo Qingci, making her a great contributor to the Huo family.
