Chapter 673 (Page 1/2)
Huo Qingyan carried his daughter's clothes and returned to his parents' home.
He knocked on the door gently, walked into his parents' bedroom, put a bag of clothes on the bedside table, sat down on the edge of the bed, and looked at Xiao Ya with concern.
"Mom, do you have any left of the scar removal cream that Big Brother gave you?"
Xiao Ya stopped sorting the clothes she was doing, looked up at her son, and replied with a smile, "Oh, you mean the scar removal cream Qing Ci sent?
He gave us two boxes, but I've already used them all! You know, Mom had surgery before, and she has some noticeable scars. Thanks to these scar creams, my scars are much lighter now!
Hearing what his mother said, Huo Qingyan's originally relaxed expression instantly became solemn.
He frowned slightly, a hint of worry in his eyes, and said anxiously, "Mom, have you run out of the scar cream at home? You know Zizi had six stitches on her forehead, and the doctor said it's very likely to leave a scar.
If it weren't for the scar removal cream, Zizi would definitely be disfigured. She used to say she wanted to be a pilot like me when she grew up, but now it seems impossible."
Xiao Ya was also startled when she heard this. She quickly put down her work, looked at Huo Qingyan, and comforted him, "Qingyan, don't worry, don't worry! Calm down first. Although this matter is indeed worrying, maybe the situation is not as bad as we think.
Your eldest brother has two boxes of scar removal cream at home. He always says that bumps and bruises are inevitable for children, so he keeps some medicine at home.
Huo Qingyan nodded repeatedly and replied, "Yeah, I see. Unfortunately, my eldest brother and his family have all gone to Hai City. My eldest sister-in-law probably won't be back until the tenth day of the first lunar month."
"Qingyan, you can't use this scar cream until Zizi's wound is completely healed. Buy it from your sister-in-law when she comes back."
"Okay, that's the only way."
After talking about scar removal cream, Huo Qingyan turned to Xiao Ya with a serious expression and slowly said, "Mom, there's something else I need to tell you. Tang Xue has resigned.
Oh, this is really troublesome. With Tang Xue gone, there is no one to help us take care of the children..."
Xiao Ya looked at Huo Qingyan with a worried look on her face, her tone full of worry. Suddenly, she thought of her son who had already given her his son and daughter to take care of. Could he be thinking of sending another one?
Then she frowned and responded unhappily, "No one to take care of them? What can I do? I've already taken care of two children for you!"
Is it possible that your wife can’t even take care of two children by herself?”
Then, as if she remembered something, she continued, "Let me tell you, I often see some military families carrying babies who can't even walk yet on their backs.
In front of her was a baby who was breastfeeding, and in her hands was a stumbling child who had just learned to walk.
The Chinese New Year is just around the corner, so it would be difficult to hire a nanny, and I can’t help you take care of the twins.
How about this, I have some baby carriers here, you can take them back and give them to your wife to use for babysitting. Tie one in front and one in the back, and you can have both hands free to do the work.
Xiao Ya really doesn't have the energy to take over the twins from her second son's family. Now that there are two more children in the family, she can't do a lot of work. Fortunately, her youngest son is at home helping her with housework, otherwise she wouldn't be able to celebrate the New Year.
Huo Qingyan brought back two baby carriers and asked Song Jingjing to carry the child on her back so that she could work with her hands free. Song Jingjing was naturally not happy about this. She said that she could put the child in the cradle while she worked and let her son help watch over the child.
Huo Qingyan had no choice but to follow her. The New Year was approaching, and although he didn't have to go on any missions, he had to attend meetings every day. How could he have so much time to come back and see the children?
As soon as Huo Qingyan went to work, Song Jingjing found that she couldn't take care of the two children's eating, drinking, defecating and urinating by herself, let alone cleaning. In the end, she could only break down and cry.

Huo Yichen couldn't bear it any longer, so he took the initiative to come over and pick up the little girl from the cradle, feed her milk powder and rice porridge, and change her diaper.
Huo Junshan dragged his tired body back home from get off work. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the granddaughter who had been sent back home came again.
When he got closer and saw his granddaughter clearly, he was shocked - he saw that her forehead was wrapped in a thick layer of gauze!
Huo Junshan hurried forward and asked with concern, "Xiaoya, why is Zizi here again? What's wrong with her head injury?"
Xiao Ya sighed helplessly, shook her head and said, "Oh, don't mention it." Tang Xue wanted to ask for leave to go home for the New Year, but the second son's wife refused to agree. As a result, the two of them started fighting after a disagreement.
Zizi was playing in the living room at the time. No one expected that the second son's wife would suddenly pick up a water cup and throw it at Zizi, hitting her on the head. Qingyan took her to the hospital and got six stitches.
Qingyan even came to ask me for scar cream, but I’ve already used up the two boxes of scar cream Qingci gave me.”
Hearing this, Huo Junshan was so angry that he slammed his hand on the table and roared in anger: "The second brother and his wife are simply making trouble! What sins did I commit in my previous life? Did I owe them in my previous life that they tortured us..."
Xiao Ya naturally understood her husband's dissatisfaction with his second son and his wife. Ever since they had twins, the couple had pushed most of the responsibility of caring for the children onto them.
It was not enough to throw one child over, and then another was thrown over. If Xiao Ya had not directly told her son Huo Qingyan today that it was impossible for her to help them take care of the twins.
She really suspected that her daughter-in-law Song Jingjing would send her youngest granddaughter to take care of.
Even if the old couple are unhappy, what can they do?
After all, the second child's children were still young, ignorant and naive. The youngest child, in particular, had a heart condition and needed special care.
Now, even the nanny who was hired to help take care of the children has left because she couldn't stand her daughter-in-law's attitude.
How are they going to celebrate the New Year? It's such a headache!
Xiao Ya frowned slightly, and suddenly said with a worried look, "Junshan, given the current situation, it's really not a good idea to ask others for help. But tell me, what should Qingyan and the others do?"
As she spoke, she sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
Hearing this, Huo Junshan frowned and responded unhappily, "What else can we do? Just leave it as it is! Cold dish! In our countryside, which woman doesn't have to take care of children, do housework, and work in the fields?
Some even have to not only take care of several children, but also carry their children on their backs to work in the fields!
Look, our son has already sent Feifei and Zizi over for us to take care of. Isn’t this already causing us enough trouble?
"Xiao Ya, are you planning to take An Yan to look after you again?" He looked at Xiao Ya with dissatisfaction, as if he disagreed with her idea.
Xiao Ya waved her hands and shook her head repeatedly when asked, and hurriedly explained: "Oh, Junshan, look at what you said! The New Year is coming soon, and there are still a lot of things waiting to be done at home!
I haven't had time to do the big cleaning yet, and I also have to prepare some New Year's goods. I haven't bought or prepared any New Year's dishes yet. How can I have the extra time and energy to help them take care of Anyan!
Fortunately, Qing Huan is quite capable, otherwise, I really don’t know how I would spend the New Year this year…”
