Chapter 801 (Page 1/2)
The porridge was still steaming and looked extremely hot.
Seeing this, Lin Man carefully picked up the bowl and slowly sat down.
She decided to taste the cold shredded radish that Huo Qingci had carefully prepared first. After all, the tempting aroma had already made her salivate.
When the first bite of shredded radish enters your mouth, a refreshing and delicious taste instantly spreads across your tongue.
Lin Man's eyes lit up involuntarily, and she secretly admired in her heart: The cold shredded radish that Huo Qingci made today is simply delicious!
She could no longer contain her inner joy and love for the food, and blurted out: "Qingci, the shredded radish you made tonight is so refreshing and delicious!"
When Huo Junshan, who was sitting opposite, heard this, he quickly picked up a piece of shredded radish with chopsticks and put it into his mouth and chewed it carefully.
After a moment, he nodded with surprise and said, "Yes, that's true! This dish of shredded radish is indeed very refreshing and tastes great.
I used to think that only winter radishes were sweet and juicy, but I never expected that early-ripening radishes in this season would be so delicious.”
After hearing this, Lin Man's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a barely noticeable smile.
Because only she knew that these radishes used to make shredded radishes were not ordinary radishes! They were all picked from the spiritual fields in the misty space, so they were naturally many times more delicious than the ordinary radishes outside in winter!
At this moment, Xiao Ya was also attracted by everyone's words and joined the discussion about shredded radish.
She asked curiously, "Are these shredded radishes really as delicious as you say? Qingci, tell me quickly, where did you buy such good radishes?"
Facing everyone's expectant gazes, Huo Qingci thought for a moment, then answered without hesitation: "Dad, I really didn't buy these! These radishes were actually brought back by Grandpa."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Li suddenly glared at Huo Qingci fiercely. He said slowly, "I did bring this radish back. As for where I bought it, don't worry about it.
If you want to eat some, I'll ask Qingci to bring you half a bag later. You can use it to make kimchi, stew pork shank soup, or dry radish. It's up to you."
Seeing that his father looked solemn and didn't seem willing to talk about the matter any more, Huo Junshan tactfully stopped asking any more questions.
However, after a moment of silence, he frowned as if he suddenly remembered something and said:
"Dad, you don't know, after you all left yesterday, Qingyan's wife actually found me and asked me to give her money to buy a shop!"
Hearing this, Huo Li stopped picking up the food he was doing, looked up at his son, and asked, "Did you agree to her?"
Huo Junshan quickly shook his head and replied with a bitter face, "I only have such a pitiful amount of savings on hand, how can I afford to buy a shop for them?

So I asked her to go back to her parents’ house to borrow money, and told her that as long as she could borrow money from her parents’ house, I would lend her the same amount of money.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Li slowly put down his chopsticks, stared straight at Huo Junshan, and asked in a serious tone: "So, do you still have the intention of lending them money?"
Huo Junshan felt a little guilty when his father asked him this, but he still explained, "Dad, think about it, there's no way the Song family would spend so much money to buy a shop for Song Jingjing!
When she married into our family, she didn't bring much valuable dowry with her."
After saying this, Huo Junshan seemed to realize that there might be something wrong with his words. He quickly turned his head to look at Lin Man who was sitting beside him and said apologetically:
"Xiao Man, what I said just now was not directed at you, please don't take it to heart!"
Lin Man showed an awkward and forced smile on her face and responded softly: "Okay, Dad, I don't mind."
Huo Junshan frowned and said to his father in a serious tone, "Dad, you don't know that when I told her that, I never even thought of lending them the money!
Our Rourou is still young, and Qinghuan hasn't even gotten married yet. How can we afford to lend them money to buy a shop?"
Hearing his son's words, Huo Li nodded thoughtfully, and then said, "Son, I'm afraid things are not that simple.
Since Qingyan's wife has already asked you to borrow money, given her personality, she probably won't give up easily.
Maybe one day she will be able to borrow some money from her parents' side, add it to the savings that the couple has saved, and then insist that it was all borrowed from her parents' side.
When the time comes, if she comes back and asks us to give her a few thousand dollars as support, what do you think, should we lend her money or not?
Huo Junshan pondered this inwardly. His father had a point. Song Jingjing had always been very shrewd. She might actually be able to pull off something like this.
Thinking of this, he shook his head vigorously and answered firmly: "I will never lend this money no matter what!
The next time they come to me, I will tell them straight out: don’t expect to get a penny from me! "
However, at this moment, Huo Li suddenly raised a new question: "What if they suddenly ask for a share of the family income? What should we do then?"
Huo Junshan thought for a moment and said, "I'll give Qingyan away when he gets married again. Why should I give them any money for the separation? Dad, if you didn't take out the money back then, we wouldn't blame you."
Huo Li snorted coldly, "Are you blaming me for not giving you any money in the first place?"
