Chapter 617 (Page 1/2)
Since Huo Qingci had to go to Hai City in two days, Huo Li specially arranged for Huo Yining to go to the Youth Palace in the afternoon to ask for two days' leave. After asking for leave, they hurried back to the military hospital.
On the night before Huo Qingci left for Hai City, Lin Man followed her grandfather's instructions and carefully prepared two tables of sumptuous dinners at home to see Huo Qingci off.
When the Huo family learned that Huo Qingci was going to Hai City to work, they all came over to talk to him.
Huo Qingci's fourth uncle and younger uncle came, Huo Qingyan's entire family also came, and of course Huo Junshan also came with his wife, daughter and grandson.
Even my cousins Huo Wenjing and Huo Xi came, but Fourth Aunt and Younger Aunt did not come this time. They wanted to stay at home to help take care of the grandchildren.
Song Jingjing has been busy taking care of the children recently. She is exhausted both physically and mentally and is already in a bad mood.
She was originally quite worried that her fourth aunt and youngest aunt would come and take this opportunity to mock her and ridicule her for giving birth to a daughter with heart disease.
When dinner started, Song Jingjing didn't see the two of them show up, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
When she thought about the fact that her elder sister-in-law and elder brother-in-law had been separated for the past two years, her originally heavy mood suddenly became light.
People are really strange creatures! They always like to compare themselves with each other.
Whenever I see others living better than me, I will unconsciously feel a sour feeling in my heart, and I will feel unhappy no matter how I think about it.
But if you find that the other person is having a harder time than you, at that moment it seems that the hardships you have experienced are not so unbearable.
At this moment, the family was sitting around the table enjoying dinner. She pretended to look at Lin Man casually and asked:
"Sister-in-law, I heard that my brother will stay in Hai City to work for the next two years. Do you plan to take the children with you?"
Lin Man naturally understood what Song Jingjing meant, but she didn't choose to beat around the bush. Instead, she answered directly, "No need to go. When the children are on vacation, I will take them to Hai City to visit Qingci."
Hearing this, Song Jingjing didn't seem to be willing to give up and continued to ask, "Oh, are you going to wait until winter vacation to take Ningning and the others to Hai City by train?
That's a long way to go! And there are so many people coming and going along the way. Aren't you worried at all about running into human traffickers?
Besides, such a long journey would cost a lot of money just for transportation!"
Faced with Song Jingjing's barrage of questions, Lin Man didn't want to pay any attention to her at all.
Although she knew in her heart that human traffickers did exist even in this day and age, and she had to be extra careful when traveling with four children alone.
But even so, Song Jingjing's words were really disappointing.
Seeing Second Aunt making things difficult for Mom, Huo Yining suddenly interrupted, "Second Aunt, I can help Mom look after my younger brothers and sisters."
Huo Yian also patted his chest and said, "Second Aunt, I will also help look after my younger brothers and sisters."
Song Jingjing thought, Huo Yining is tall, the traffickers definitely can't take him away, and Huo Yian is half a head shorter than his brother, how can he take care of his younger siblings who are two years younger than him.
At this moment, Huo Junheng, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly turned his gaze to Huo Qingyan and asked, "Qingyan, why is it that one of your lovely twin sisters is so chubby while the other is so skinny?"

Hearing this, Huo Qingyan quickly replied with a smile, "Uncle, you don't know! My child An Ran has not been in good health since childhood. She eats very little, and her gastrointestinal absorption function is also relatively poor.
In comparison, An Yan is different. She eats a lot, so naturally she is bigger than her sister."
Huo Junheng nodded thoughtfully and continued, "I see. But if things continue like this, one of these two little sisters will definitely be tall and thin, and the other short and fat in the future.
As a father, you have to think of a way to take good care of Anran's health and let her eat as much as possible.
Look at Wenwen and Xinxin, they look almost the same size."
Huo Qingyan quickly responded, "Uncle is absolutely right. Xinxin and Wenwen look about the same height now, but in two years, Wenwen will definitely be a whole head taller than Xinxin."
Generally speaking, boys are taller than girls."
However, tonight's protagonist Huo Qingci couldn't help but interrupt and said, "My daughter Xinxin takes after her mother and was born with long arms and legs.
In my opinion, this girl will definitely not be short in the future. Besides, girls usually grow taller first. Maybe in two years, she might be taller than Wenwen!"
Huo Qinghuan smiled and nodded in agreement, "That's true! Generally speaking, girls develop earlier and usually grow forward.
Boys grow up later, so they often catch up later. My sister-in-law is so tall, so I'm sure Xinxin won't be short in the future."
Song Jingjing's eyes fell on Huo Yixin, who was wearing a beautiful little floral dress. She saw that the little girl had slender hands and feet and a graceful figure.
She couldn't help but think to herself that this girl was really going to grow up. Not only was she tall and outstanding, but her face was also delicate and charming.
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly like butterfly wings, and her big eyes were like a deep lake, bright and clear.
The small cherry lips are rosy without any makeup, and they are delicate and tempting; and the skin is as white and flawless as snow, delicate and smooth, as if it can be broken by a touch.
This kind of appearance is simply a natural beauty! Looking at her daughter Zizi, although her facial features are more like Qingyan and her foundation is better than her mother, she is still a long way behind Huo Yixin.
I can't compare with my children, but compared with my husband, my uncle is going to Hai City for two years this time. I guess he will be reborn when he comes back. My sister-in-law is so lucky!
Seeing that Lin Man didn't talk to her much, Song Jingjing simply stopped talking and just ate her meal.
Huo Junheng didn't know if he was in a good mood, but he kept clinking glasses with Huo Qingci, saying as he did so: "Qingci, Haishi is a very nice place. When you go there, you can go to the Huangpu River to see the beautiful night view."
Huo Qingci raised his eyebrows, "Fourth Uncle, are you familiar with Haishi?"
Huo Junheng seemed to have thought of something and suddenly changed the subject, "Qingci, how many doctors are your hospital sending to Hai City this time? Will the hospital there send doctors to your hospital?"
"Our hospital is sending nine doctors to Hai City this time. I'm not sure about the others."
