Chapter 570: My Face Was Scratched (Page 1/2)
Huo Yixin and Huo Rou held hands, happily holding skipping ropes, and went downstairs to play, while Lin Man began to prepare lunch for the family in an orderly manner.
The kitchen on the balcony was filled with the aroma of pork. Lin Man was about to serve the dish when she heard hurried footsteps approaching from afar, followed by Huo Yixin's sobbing voice, "Mom..."
Lin Man was startled and quickly dropped the spatula in her hand. She saw Huo Yixin running towards her crying with tear marks on her face and messy hair.
Lin Man quickly squatted down and asked distressedly, "Xinxin, tell mom, what's wrong with you?"
Huo Yixin sobbed and said, "Mom, Yaya is so mean! She snatched away my aunt's skipping rope. I wanted to help my aunt get it back, but she actually reached out and scratched my face. My face was burning with pain."
As she spoke, Huo Yixin raised her head, wanting her mother to see her injured cheek. Lin Man took a closer look and couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in her heart.
The two high ponytails that were carefully tied for my daughter in the morning have now become one high and one low, and are messy.
Look at that cute little face again, it is covered with bloodstains of varying lengths, some places are even slightly red and swollen, the whole face is red, which makes people feel so distressed.
"This Zhang Daya is too much! Not only did she dare to steal someone's things in broad daylight, but she also hurt them. Mom will go downstairs and help you teach her a lesson later. Honey, let's apply the medicine first."
At this time, Lin Man still had two dishes that had not been cooked, so she had to put them aside for the time being. She had to deal with her daughter's affairs first.
I saw her skillfully scoop a full bucket of water from the bucket and gently pour it into the pot to prevent it from burning dry. Then she took her daughter's hand and went back to the room to apply the medicine.
"Baby, be good and listen. Mommy will apply the medicine for you first, and then we will go downstairs to play with Zhang Daya." Lin Man said gently to her daughter.
However, Huo Yixin shook her head and said anxiously, "Mom, don't apply the medicine to me now. My aunt is still waiting for us downstairs!"
Lin Man asked doubtfully, "Then why don't you bring her upstairs with you?"
Huo Yixin hurriedly explained: "My elder brother and younger brother are accompanying my aunt."
After hearing this, Lin Man nodded, then squatted down to comfort her daughter: "Okay, but you still have to apply the medicine first, so that the wound can heal faster. After the medicine is applied, Mom will take you downstairs."
After saying that, she stood up and walked to the five-drawer cabinet. She took out a bottle of iodine and a pack of cotton swabs from the top drawer, gently dipped some iodine, and carefully applied it on Huo Yixin's injured cheek.
Afterwards, she went to the small kitchen on the balcony and brought the cooked dishes and unfinished ingredients to the dining table and arranged them neatly. She then locked the door and slowly went downstairs holding her daughter's hand.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked downstairs, I saw two children fighting fiercely not far ahead.
Looking closely, he found that it was his youngest son Huo Yiwen who was grabbing Zhang Daya's hair tightly and refused to let go.
Sister-in-law Huo Rou was held tightly in the arms of her second son Huo Yian, who even had a pair of badminton rackets on his back.
"What's wrong? What happened to you?" Along with anxious shouts, Lin Man rushed forward hurriedly. She stretched out her hands and forcefully pulled the two people who were arguing apart.

After being pulled away, Zhang Daya's face was full of anger. Her big round eyes were filled with resentment and malice, staring at Lin Man in front of her.
Suddenly, she thrust her head forward, spat fiercely at Lin Man, and cursed, "Fox spirit!"
Lin Man never expected that this little girl would be so rude, but her good upbringing and high quality allowed her to suppress the anger in her heart.
She took a deep breath and told herself not to argue with a child. If the other person was an adult, with her temper, she would have slapped him in the face without hesitation.
However, facing the young and ignorant Zhang Daya, Lin Man could only choose to be patient and tolerant.
When Huo Yiwen heard Zhang Daya calling his mother a vixen, he quickly stepped forward and kicked her. Lin Man was quick to grab her son.
"Okay, smell it, just stand there obediently."
Huo Yiwen stood there motionless. Seeing this, Zhang Daya picked up her tattered skipping rope and ran away.
Lin Man asked Huo Yiwen, "What happened to you? Why did you fight with Zhang Daya?"
"She bullied her aunt and sister, scratched her sister's face, and just now she scolded her mother..."
Lin Man looked at her children helplessly and said, "Okay, let's go home first. We'll deal with this later."
Just as she was about to take the children back, Zhang Daya rushed over, dragging another woman with her. "Mom, that's him! He just pulled my hair."
Yu Xiuying put her hands on her hips and looked at Lin Man, saying angrily, "Hey, Director Huo's wife, your son pulled my daughter's hair. How do you think we should handle this?"
Lin Man looked coldly at the short woman, who was only as tall as her shoulders, and said, "Daya's mother, you are going to cause trouble for my son. I originally planned to talk to you after lunch about how your daughter stole the rubber rope from my sister-in-law, scratched my daughter, and spitted and insulted me.
Now is the perfect time, since you're here, let's settle this matter."
"What does it count? Your daughter was playing with my daughter's skipping rope, so what's wrong with my daughter using your sister-in-law's skipping rope?
Did my little girl scratch your daughter's face? Didn't your daughter also pull my little girl's arm?
Your brat even pulled my daughter's hair. I don't care. Your Huo family must pay for my daughter's medical expenses."
What the hell is she dreaming about? She bullied her child and wanted her family to pay compensation. Doctor Zhang’s wife is so shameless.
Lin Man's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a sneer full of sarcasm, and said in a cold voice: "Sister Yu, you are so determined to make our family pay compensation? Good!
So today we have to carefully and clearly calculate this account. Is it my family who needs to pay your daughter money, or is it your family who should bear the medical expenses for my daughter? "
After saying that, Lin Man stretched out her finger without hesitation, pointing directly at her daughter's face covered in medicine, and continued to shout excitedly:
"Look, open your eyes and see what has become of my daughter's face!
Also, do you know what ugly words your daughter just uttered to insult me?
Could it be that you were the one who taught me all these obscene words? Okay, now tell me clearly what I, Lin Man, did to provoke you.
