Chapter 504: Lying (Page 1/2)
Yang Huiling and Du Juan expressed their doubts about this. They couldn't understand why Lin Man's children, who were also descendants of the Huo family, were so different.
They believed that one child's intelligence might be attributed to chance, but if all of Lin Man's children were very smart, there must be some special reason.
So they began to speculate whether Lin Man had eaten some special food or medicine during her pregnancy, which made her children so smart.
If this is true, they want Lin Man to help their daughter-in-law, so that the second child born by their daughter-in-law will be exceptionally smart.
Now they asked Lin Man, but Lin Man firmly denied it, which made Yang Huiling and Du Juan confused and dissatisfied. They felt that Lin Man was not honest enough and even a little selfish.
They are all members of the Huo family. Helping them will not harm her interests. I don’t know why she refused.
Seeing Lin Man's denial, Du Juan raised an unnatural smile and said to Xiao Ya, "Third sister-in-law, did Xiao Man really not eat anything special when she was pregnant?"
Xiao Ya frowned, somewhat puzzled, "Sister-in-law, what are you doubting? Do you suspect that my grandson is smart because Manman ate something special when she was pregnant with them?"
Du Juan smiled awkwardly, "This is about the daughter-in-law of Lao Qian from our unit who gave birth to a child with cerebral palsy. Everyone is talking about the fact that she ate the wrong food during her pregnancy, which is why the child has cerebral palsy.
Xiaoman’s children are all very smart. I want to ask her what she ate during her pregnancy…”
Seeing her mother-in-law was stumped by the question, Lin Man knew that Fourth Aunt and Little Aunt were difficult to deal with, so she replied directly: "Fourth Aunt, Little Aunt, I didn't eat anything special when I was pregnant. If there was anything, it was fish. I was pregnant with Ningning and An'an on the island, and I ate a lot of sea fish."
Du Juan's eyes suddenly lit up, and she was delighted. "Xiao Man, are you telling the truth?"
Lin Man nodded half-seriously, "Yeah, my kids all like to eat fish."
She has so much seafood in her space, so is she just going to keep it in the cold storage if she doesn't eat it? It's said that children should eat more fish, and eating fish can make children smarter. It's not just talk.
Deep-sea fish are rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, which cannot be synthesized by the human body but are very beneficial to the body. They can promote brain nerve development, strengthen the brain, regulate blood pressure, reduce inflammation and even lower blood lipids.
Du Juan exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? So what our ancestors said is true. Children who eat more fish will become smarter and eat fish to improve eyesight, right?"
Yang Huiling and Du Juan decided to let their grandchildren and daughters-in-law eat more fish in the future so that they don’t have to envy Lin Man.
Yang Huiling said with a smile, "It turns out that Ningning and the others became so smart because they ate fish. I will cook fish for my grandchildren every day from now on."

Lin Man couldn't help but remind her, "Aunt Si, your grandson is still young. Be careful when eating fish. If he gets his food stuck, it will be more trouble than it's worth."
Xiao Ya couldn't help but nod in agreement, "Manman is right. If Rourou wants to eat fish, we will help pick out the fish bones in advance. If you really feed fish to children, you must pay attention to the fish bones."
Yang Huiling and Du Juan nodded and said they remembered, then they took their children back and sat at the same table with their son and daughter-in-law.
Fortunately, before the meal started, Huo Qingci brought his grandfather and father over to sit down.
Huo Junshan asked Xiao Ya, "Xiao Ya, what are the fourth and fifth daughters-in-law doing here?"
"I'll ask Manman how she raised her child to be so smart."
Huo Junshan said proudly, "That must be hereditary. Our Qingci and Xiaoman are both top students. With the Yangtze River's younger generation pushing the older generation forward, isn't it normal for their children to be even smarter than they are?"
Xiao Ya glanced at Lin Man and saw that she was calmly eating peanuts from the fruit bowl. She smiled and nodded, "You're right. A child's intelligence is definitely due to genetics. But Manman just said that the children are so smart because she ate a lot of fish when she was pregnant. An An and the others all like to eat fish."
"Oh, so that's how it is. Some people say eating fish can make people smarter. Our Rourou should eat more fish from now on."
Huo Rou shook her head. "Dad, I actually prefer meat."
Huo Junshan patted Huo Rou's little head and coaxed her softly, "Alright, little darling, the feast is about to begin. There's plenty of meat today."
At this time, Huo Yingzi ran over crying, grabbed Huo Junshan's hand and said, "Grandpa, Mom just beat me. She only likes my older brother and younger brother."
Huo Junshan asked her, "Zizi, why did your mother beat you?"
Huo Yingzi lowered her eyes and sobbed, "I just grabbed a few candies from the fruit plate, but my brother wouldn't let me. Then my mother came over and yelled at me, even beating me..."
Seeing this, Huo Yining grabbed a handful of candy from the fruit plate and stuffed it into Huo Yingzi's hand, saying, "Zizi, your aunt is not here, so eat it quickly!"
Lin Man really didn't expect that Huo Yingzi would actually come to complain about her mother for a few candies. She didn't know the truth of the matter, so it was difficult for her to comment. After all, children like to lie.
Huo Qingyan saw his daughter running to her grandfather's table and hurried over. Huo Junshan glared at him, "Qingyan, what's wrong with you? Why are you hitting Zizi?"
Huo Qingyan frowned and explained, "Dad, we didn't hit Zizi. She just grabbed the candy from the fruit bowl with Chenchen, and mother-in-law scolded her.
She was unhappy and wanted to sit on the ground, and ended up knocking Chenchen to the ground. Jingjing went to help Chenchen instead of her..."
Huo Junshan knew that his son would not lie, so it seemed that his granddaughter lied.
