Chapter 450: Differential Treatment (Page 1/2)
Song Jingjing was thinking that Lin Man's twins, a boy and a girl, would be a little lighter than her son when they were born.
If they can raise their sons to be fat and plump, then she can naturally raise her son to be fat and plump as well. When Huo Qingyan comes back, he will definitely be very happy to see the big fat boy she gave birth to for him.
Isn't it just milk powder? She went back to her parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year and asked her parents to find a way to get her some milk powder coupons. She also let her son drink milk powder, and the family bought some chrysanthemum crystals to reduce internal heat.
"I'm planning to buy some milk powder for our Chenchen. Drinking it for a few months should help him gain weight, right?"
Lin Man reminded her, "Sister-in-law, your son Chenchen can have some minced meat and vegetable porridge, egg custard, and milk powder in the morning and evening."
Xiao Ya agreed, "It's time to wean Chenchen. Jingjing, where are you going to wean him? Or why not send him over to let your dad and I take care of him."
Song Jingjing hesitated a little, "Mom, I plan to send Chenchen to my parents to wean him for a month and let him drink milk powder."
Seeing that Song Jingjing had made up her mind, Xiao Ya didn't take the initiative to try to keep her.
Since she doesn't have to take care of her third grandson, she can come over when she is free and help her eldest daughter-in-law take care of the twins.
Song Jingjing went back to her own home at night, and brought her children to visit her grandfather early the next morning to wish him a happy new year.
Huo Junheng and Huo Junlin also brought their families to pay New Year's greetings to the old man.
Huo Wenjing and Huo Xi both brought their partners this time. Although they haven't gotten their marriage certificate yet, they got engaged a year ago.
As soon as they got engaged, the girl went to the boy's house to celebrate the New Year. It was the first time they brought their fiancées to visit their grandfather for the New Year, so Huo Li naturally had to give their girlfriends a red envelope.
Lin Man discovered that this year, Fourth Aunt and Younger Aunt gave each of their four children a red envelope of two yuan, but gave Huo Yichen a red envelope of ten yuan.
She felt very uncomfortable. She didn't care about the few dollars, but they were obviously biased and obviously didn't take their children seriously.
Is she someone who needs a few dollars? They still have the nerve to say that she has too many children. Does their daughter-in-law only plan to have one child in the future?
When Huo Wenjing and Huo Xi hold their wedding banquet, she will not give too much red envelope. She originally planned to give fifty yuan, but now she only plans to give twenty yuan.
Fourth Aunt and Younger Aunt can say whatever they want, she is not afraid of offending them.
She wouldn't be that angry if someone stepped on her face, but she would be very angry if someone stepped on her children's faces.
If Fourth Aunt and Younger Aunt treated everyone equally, she would definitely give some gifts to Huo Wenjing and Huo Xi's partner, after all, it was their first time here.
Even though Lin Man was very angry, she didn't say anything on the first day of the new year and let things take their course.
On the evening of the second day of the Lunar New Year, Huo Qingci suddenly said to Lin Man, "Grandpa plans to take Ningning to pay New Year's greetings to the leader tomorrow."
Lin Man asked Huo Qingci, "Grandpa, why did you think of Ningning again?"
"Grandpa said that taking Ningning to receive the red envelope from the leader will help her study smartly in the future."
Lin Man's mouth twitched. Grandpa wanted Huo Yining to share in the great leader's blessing.
If she wants her sons to be smart and clever, she can let them take intelligence pills. When the weather gets warmer, she will give them to An An and Ning Ning.
"Qingci, speaking of red envelopes, I want to tell you something."
"What's up?"
"Your fourth aunt and young aunt have some problems with us. Give Huo Yichen a red envelope of ten yuan and give each of us children two yuan.
Your mother also gave Huo Wenjing and Huo Xi's wife a red envelope of twenty yuan each."
Huo Qingci hesitated for a moment and said, "They probably look at our children more!"

"Even if there are many children, they can't treat them differently. Huo Yichen is so thin, but they deliberately flatter Song Jingjing, saying that this kid looks smart and will become a high-ranking official when he grows up.
Huo Qingci, your fourth aunt and youngest aunt not only look down on me but also on you. They think you are just a military doctor.
Your brother is going abroad to study, and he will definitely be promoted when he comes back. Song Jingjing's grandfather has a higher position than her grandfather, and her parents are also high-ranking officials, so they flatter Song Jingjing, right? "
Huo Qingci was silent for a moment. He hugged Lin Man and said, "I'm sorry, Manman. My aunt and the others are indeed a bit more realistic. Since Manman doesn't like them, we should have less contact with them in the future."
"Well, I get it. I'm just telling you that I don't care about the size of the children's red envelopes, but it's not good to treat them differently.
If they gave their children the same red envelopes as Huo Yichen, I wouldn't treat their new daughter-in-law unfairly." Lin Man couldn't help but complain.
In order not to let her children suffer, she took out four biscuit jars, put an extra red envelope of ten yuan in each biscuit jar, and also gave each of them a large yellow croaker to save.
Lin Man discovered that since she had children, the children have come first in her heart. It’s okay to offend her, but you can’t offend her children.
If Huo Qingci really dared to dislike the children, she would definitely turn against him. If a man's heart was not with her, she could find another one, but the children were hers, and even if they were not outstanding, they were her own.
On the sixth day of the first lunar month, Huo Wenjing got married. Lin Man stayed at home to take care of the twins and did not go to her fourth aunt's house for the wedding banquet. Huo Qingci took his two sons with him.
Huo Junlin asked Huo Qingci, "Qingci, why didn't your wife come?"
"Xiao Hua hasn't come back yet, Man Man is at home taking care of the kids."
Lin Man wanted to go, and she could actually go with Huo Li, but she didn't want to go, so she didn't go.
Yang Huiling and Du Xiaojuan whispered, "Qingci's wife is so proud of having twins, a boy and a girl. Jingjing has to go to work, but she brought her son to the wedding."
Du Xiaojuan asked Yang Huiling, "How many favors did they owe you when they were at your house?"
"Twenty dollars."
"Where is Qingyan's wife?"
"They didn't split up the family. They came here with my eldest sister-in-law. I didn't give any money as a gift, but a pair of pillowcases."
Huo Qingci, who was not far away, was very unhappy when he heard this. It seemed that his daughter-in-law was right. Fourth Aunt and Young Aunt just had something against them.
Even if her sister-in-law didn't give her a gift, they would have reasons to help her.
He knew why Fourth Aunt and Younger Aunt were so dissatisfied with their family. It was because Grandpa gave the house to him.
After the family split up, grandpa continued to live with them. They suspected that he gave all his retirement pay to them.
Grandpa knew that he had money from selling supplies, and except for the money Manman took out when she got pregnant and gave birth, he hardly ever let Grandpa spend any money.
Since they had such strong opinions about their family, he would definitely not be so eager to help Huo Wenjing and Huo Xi if they needed his help in the future. He would try not to interfere unless it was a matter of life and death.
Huo Xi got married on the 16th day of the first lunar month. Xiao Hua had already returned from her hometown, but Lin Man still did not show up at their wedding banquet.
When her mother-in-law asked her what was wrong, she directly said that it was inconvenient to attend the wedding with the children, and she still had to feed two children.
The reason was reasonable and they didn't know what to say, but Huo Junheng seemed to feel something was wrong.
He asked Du Xiaojuan, "Did you offend Qingci's wife?"
