Chapter 493: No Comments (Page 1/2)
When Huo Li learned that his son and grandson had named his daughter, he said nothing. Lin Man thought her grandfather would be sulking, but she saw that he had no reaction at all.
Lin Man teased Huo Qingci, "Qingci, is your grandfather a bit biased towards boys?
"He was so enthusiastic about naming our first and second children, and even when we had twins, he was still so enthusiastic about naming them. Why is it that when it comes to my sister-in-law and Huo Qingyan's daughter, he doesn't care anymore?"
"Grandpa's thinking is quite traditional, and it's inevitable that he favors boys over girls. Dad and Qingyan want to name their daughter themselves.
It’s not easy for my grandfather to stop him, not to mention that he’s old and doesn’t want to get involved in some family matters anymore.”
"Whatever, it's nice to just stroll around the military area and have some tea in my subordinates' offices every day."
"It's great. Grandpa is looking forward to Ningning growing up soon. He said he wants to see him get married and have children."
Lin Man also knew that the eldest son had the same status as Huo Qingci in his grandfather's heart. He wanted to see his son get married and start a family, which meant that he wanted to live another ten or twenty years.
Huo Qingci often took his grandfather to take medicinal baths and gave him clean medicinal spring water to drink. As long as there were no accidents, his grandfather should have no problem living to be eighty or ninety years old.
"Qingci, ask grandpa if we can build two small houses in the backyard, one for the sons and one for Xinxin."
"This is the military housing. I don't know if it can be built. Our hospital's family housing will be completed by the end of next year, and we will move in then."
"What about Grandpa?"
"Grandpa plans to return this house and move to the hospital's family quarters. You forgot that the brother of our hospital director was promoted by Grandpa.
Whether it's the hospital or any other place, they all belong to the Air Force. As long as Grandpa wants to move to another place, the leaders won't say anything."
"In that case, then don't build the house."
Huo Qingci also planned so. Although the house they were allocated was dozens of square meters, it only had one bedroom and one living room.
He planned to live on the same floor with his grandfather in the future, so he let his three sons live in his grandfather's house, put a set of sofas and two beds in the living room, and his grandfather would sleep alone in the bedroom.
As for his daughter, of course she will live at home with him and his wife. He plans to build a partition in his living room and make a small bedroom for his daughter.
Although their master bedroom was also large and there was no problem in making a partition to put two beds in it, the problem was that he didn't want to expose the space between him and Lin Man in front of the children.
The bedroom is spacious, so he can customize a larger wardrobe and place a desk, a chest of drawers, a recliner, etc. in the bedroom.
Lin Man was so happy when she thought about moving into her new home at the end of next year. It would be fine if she could live on the same floor with her grandfather, not in the same house.
At least from now on, Huo Qingci won’t have to hide in the room when holding her hand or something.
"Xinxin and Wenwen will be three next year. Xiaohua said she will go back home to get married after working until the end of next year."
"Will she be eighteen by the end of next year?"
"I'm not sure about this, but few rural children go to get a marriage certificate when they get married. They get a certificate from the brigade and then have a few tables of wedding banquets."

"Manman, after Xiaohua leaves, you'll have to work hard on your own."
"An'an and Ningning will go to school. After Xiaohua leaves, I will take care of Xinxin and Wenwen for two more years. They can go to elementary school when they are five years old."
Once all the children go to school, she will be truly liberated, and cooking and doing housework will not be a difficult task for her.
Moreover, her son Ningning has started helping her with housework since he started elementary school. Anan follows suit and will also take the initiative to help wash dishes, sweep the floor, and wipe the table.
Although the children are not as efficient as the adults in their work, at least they are willing to try. As long as they are willing to do it, Lin Man will not stop them, but will give them encouragement and support.
Huo Junshan felt guilty for not being able to hold a third-day baptism banquet for his daughter, so he approached Xiao Ya to discuss the matter: "Xiao Ya, when Rourou is one month old, how about we hold a full-moon banquet for her?"
Xiao Ya thought that since she became pregnant, she has been the focus of attention of people in the compound. If she holds a banquet at this time, it may cause unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, she decided to wait until next year when her daughter turns one year old to hold a birthday party for her. By then, perhaps those people's attention will have decreased a lot.
After Xiao Ya thought about all these things, she made a decision, "Junshan, I think we should not do it. Let's wait until Rourou turns one next year.
A year later, we'll set up two or three tables and invite your sister, your brother, and the others over."
Huo Junshan naturally understood what Xiao Ya was thinking. After thinking for a moment, he gritted his teeth and agreed, "In that case, let's hold a birthday party for Rourou. Then let Zizi come along to do the one-year-old celebration."
Xiao Ya shook her head. "You'd better not mention this. Although Zizi was born later than Rourou, my daughter-in-law will definitely not agree to have her do the "Zhuazhou" ceremony with Rourou."
Huo Junshan sighed and said, "If they don't want to, forget it. By the way, Xiaoya, Qingci asked us if we wanted Xinxin's old clothes. Qingyan's wife said Xinxin's clothes were beautiful and she wanted some.
Xiao Man said that when you have time, you should go with Qing Yan's wife to pick some out."
Xiao Ya also knew that Lin Man asked them to choose personally instead of sending it to them because she was afraid that her daughter-in-law would say that she was biased.
Well, she took the initiative to choose. Song Jingjing wanted Xinxin's beautiful clothes, so she would pick some old sweaters and old cotton-padded jackets.
"Okay, Jingjing is back from the hospital too. I'll go with her in a week or so!"
Huo Junshan nodded, a smile on his face: "Well, okay, I'll take you there another day.
This time, Xiao Man prepared new clothes for our baby Rou Rou, but didn’t prepare any for Qing Yan, so when you go there, let Xiao Song choose first.”
Xiao Ya rolled her eyes at Huo Junshan and said angrily, "Do you think I would fight with my daughter-in-law for the child's clothes?
Don't worry, since she brought it up herself, let her choose first. Our Rourou can wear Xiaowenwen's old clothes, too. After all, children are young and clothes are not divided into boys and girls.
Although Huo Junshan loved his youngest daughter very much, he did not dare to express his opinion at this time.
After all, the third son of his family was still a sent-down youth in southern Yunnan, where the conditions were harsh and food and clothing were scarce. He had to send some of the cloth coupons he had saved to his youngest son so that he could live a slightly more comfortable life.
