Chapter 699 (Page 1/2)
Seeing his father's statement, Huo Qingyan nodded and agreed without hesitation.
At this time, Song Jingjing, who had been silent the whole time, cautiously spoke up, "Dad, how about I take charge of cooking this time and let Qinghuan help me? As for Qingyan, can he help look after the children?"
However, when Huo Qingyan heard that his wife wanted to cook herself, he immediately looked embarrassed and decisively refused, "Jingjing, it's more important for you to concentrate on taking care of the children. Leave the cooking to Qinghuan and me.
Besides, maybe Fourth Aunt and the others will come over and lend a hand later!"
Song Jingjing instantly understood what her husband meant. He obviously felt that the food he cooked was not delicious enough, so he was unwilling to let her cook.
But if she really does nothing, I'm afraid her parents-in-law will complain about her behind her back again.
Thinking of this, Song Jingjing couldn't help but feel regretful. How great it would have been if she hadn't given birth to the twins!
After all, the family already has two lovely sons and a well-behaved daughter, and this combination of family members is actually happy enough.
The birth of the two sisters An Ran and An Yan has caused them no one knows how much trouble they have caused. If the defective part of An Ran's heart does not heal before she is four years old, she will need more surgery, and they have to save money for An Ran's surgery.
This is the first reason. The second reason is that the child was born underweight and drinks milk like a kitten every day. He will choke if he drinks a little faster.
Huo Anran was weak and thin, so it was naturally difficult to raise her. She didn't know how much effort and energy she had spent on taking care of her. She couldn't eat well, and she couldn't sleep well.
Although she didn't lose weight from taking care of the children, she looked much more haggard, especially her hair, which fell out in clumps.
But now that things have come to this, the die is cast. Faced with the various situations in reality, Song Jingjing can only sigh helplessly.
I really don’t know how my sister-in-law looks like this! Her black, shiny and extremely thick hair is simply amazing.
Not only that, her thick eyebrows were like ink paintings, and her long eyelashes were trembling slightly like butterfly wings.
I don't know if it's because my sister-in-law's kidneys are too strong, or if it's just an overproduction of male hormones. It's really enviable.
At this moment, Xiao Ya walked out of the room slowly with a smile on her face, holding a plate full of fruits and a plate of New Year's goods in her hands.
She gently called out to the children to come over and sit around the warm fire.
Speaking of the New Year's goods they prepared this year, Lin Man was not here, so most of them were cooked by Xiao Ya herself.
There were fried melon seeds, fried peanuts, fried beans, and more than ten pounds of each, enough for the family to eat until the end of the month.
In addition, the clever Xiao Ya also carefully fried a large bag of sweet and crispy glutinous rice strips using glutinous rice flour.
However, since candy and biscuits require money and receipts to buy, and there are many children in the family, Xiao Ya still found a way to buy two or three pounds.
In two days it will be the second day of the Lunar New Year. According to custom, my sister-in-law should come to pay New Year's greetings. However, as there are many children at home, she cannot leave this year and therefore cannot go to the city to pay New Year's greetings to her parents.
Suo Xiaoya planned to ask her youngest son Huo Qinghuan to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some canned food, two bottles of fine wine, and a pound of fragrant tea. Of course, snacks, candies and the like were also indispensable. After all, her parents were old, and it was time for them to enjoy the blessings of their children.

Huo Yichen walked slowly into the living room, glanced around, and found a place to sit down.
Looking at the fruit plate on the coffee table, he couldn't help but reach out and grab a few orange candies from the fruit plate, then stuffed them into his pocket with satisfaction.
Then, he skillfully peeled off the wrapper of one of the candies, gently placed the orange candy with an alluring aroma into the corner of his mouth, and began to chew it slowly.
However, at this moment, a crisp "crack" sound suddenly rang out, as if something had broken. Huo Yichen was stunned at first, and then he felt a strange sensation in his mouth.
He subconsciously licked the place where the candy he was chewing, but found that it was empty - it turned out that a tooth suddenly fell out of his mouth!
"Ah! My tooth fell out!"
Huo Yichen was terrified and couldn't help but scream. This sudden change made him completely at a loss. He could only stare blankly at the tooth that had just fallen out in his hand, his eyes full of panic and helplessness.
Hearing her son's scream, Song Jingjing rushed over like an arrow and rushed in front of Huo Yichen.
She stared nervously at the tooth her son was holding carefully in his palm, and asked with concern, "Chenchen, are you okay? Does it hurt anywhere?"
Huo Yichen raised his head, looked at his mother pitifully, and said in a crying voice: "Mom, the teeth next to my front teeth fell out..." As he spoke, he pointed to his empty mouth with his finger.
Seeing her son like this, Song Jingjing's heart suddenly tightened.
After all, today is Chinese New Year, and according to folk sayings, losing teeth at this time seems unlucky. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but frown and pondered in her heart.
Seeing blood during Chinese New Year, will my son get seriously ill next year? This tooth didn't fall out earlier or later, why did it have to wait until today? It's such bad luck.
At this time, Xiao Ya beside her also hurriedly stood up and walked quickly to Huo Yichen.
She first gently touched Huo Yichen's head to comfort him, then turned and went to the kitchen to pour him a cup of warm water.
After returning to the living room with the cup of water, Xiao Ya whispered to Huo Yichen, "Yichen, be good and rinse your mouth quickly and spit out the blood in your mouth. Also, you're in the teething period now, so you can't be so greedy with candy, or you'll get more cavities. Your dad said you already have several cavities."
After hearing Xiao Ya's words, Huo Yichen lowered his head, and his originally bright eyes became dim.
He bit his lip tightly, his face full of frustration. Oh, he lost his teeth during Chinese New Year, and now he can't even eat his favorite candy. How could he be so unlucky!
"Grandma, woo woo woo, I can't eat candy for New Year's."
Seeing her grandson crying so sadly, Xiao Ya whispered to comfort him, "Grandma is telling you to eat less candy, not to stop you from eating. Okay, don't cry on New Year's Day."
Huo Qingyan frowned when he saw his son suddenly burst into tears. "Chenchen, stop crying. Did you lose an upper tooth or a lower one?"
"The one above."
"Take the top ones back and throw them under the bed later to prevent new teeth from growing crooked."
Huo Yichen looked at the incisor in his hand and couldn't help wanting to cry again. Why did God let him lose his teeth during the New Year?
