Chapter 811 (Page 1/2)
After everyone got on the bus, Huo Qingci carefully leaned close to Lin Man's ear and asked softly in a low voice:
"Manman, when we were having dinner together just now, I seemed to see a familiar figure."
As he spoke, he carefully observed the subtle changes in Lin Man's expression.
Lin Man naturally understood what Huo Qingci wanted to express. She nodded slightly in agreement and responded calmly:
"Well, I know who you're talking about. But he's just an insignificant person."
After she finished speaking, she looked out the window, as if her thoughts had drifted far away.
Seeing this, Huo Qingci said no more, but reached out and gently and softly held Lin Man's small hand, as if he wanted to give her some comfort and support in this way.
Lin Man was still staring quietly at the street scene outside the window that was constantly receding. Her eyes were a little blurred, making it difficult to guess what she was thinking at the moment.
Lin Man thought that Qiao Siyu must have recognized her, so he told his wife about it. As a result, her wife, either because she had a grudge against her or was crazy, suddenly ran over and pushed her.
Whether intentional or not, Lin Man felt that these two people were a little crazy. If Huo Qingci hadn't caught her in time, she would have been the one to fall flat on her face.
After returning to the military hospital, Lin Man and Huo Qingci got out of the car first.
Just as Huo Li was about to open the door and get out, Huo Junshan, who was sitting in the driver's seat, hurriedly said:
"Dad, today's my day off. Why don't you come over to my house and have dinner tonight? I'll have Xiaoya make some snacks, and we can have a little wine. What do you think?"
Huo Li thought about it for a while and felt that he really didn't have anything important to deal with in the afternoon, so he nodded and agreed. Then he turned to look at Huo Qingci who was standing next to the car and whispered:
"Qingci, if that's the case, then you and Xiaoman should just go home. You don't have to cook for me tonight. I'll come back after dinner."
Hearing his grandfather say this, Huo Qingci quickly handed the attractively colored and fragrant roast duck in his hand to Huo Junshan who was sitting in the front row, "Dad, take this roast duck home and eat it."
Huo Junshan waved his hand and said, "Oh, let's not have it. Ningning and the other kids really like roast duck. Just leave this roast duck for them."
Lin Man, who was standing by, also tried to persuade him: "Dad, look, we just bought two roast ducks, so you can take one without worry. One is enough for Ningning and the others.
Besides, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. If we don’t eat these roast ducks today, they will easily go bad if left out for too long.”
After hearing his daughter-in-law's caring words, Huo Junshan showed a relieved smile on his face.
Then he readily reached out and took the roast duck from Huo Qingci, muttering, "Alright, I won't be polite then. I'll take it first!"
Lin Man just smiled. The two of them carried the roast duck upstairs. As soon as they entered the house, Huo Qingci said, "Manman, while I'm free these few days, quickly pot the orchid seedlings in the field."
Lin Man also thought that Huo Qingci would be returning to Hai City to work in a few days, so she should prepare some food for him in advance.
She said, "You can transplant orchids in the space, and I'll make you some dried chickens!"

"Manman, don't bother with that. I know the chickens and ducks in your dimension are delicious. How about taking a few from your dimension and raising them in mine?"
Lin Man thought about it and thought it was okay. "Then take one of those jars of meat I fried when I killed the pig and put it in your space."
Huo Qingci nodded and said yes, then he reminded, "Manman, let's make time to steam a jar of rice wine tomorrow! You can bring the children back to the city in the second half of the year, and you must celebrate the New Year in the courtyard this year."
"If you want to drink rice wine, I still have more than ten kilograms in my space. I'll give it to you later. As for making wine for grandpa, let's wait until autumn!"
Grandpa saw that he wanted to watch us make our own wine, so he would feel at ease. He let him add the yeast, as he likes rice wine sweeter.
"Okay, then I'll go back to the space to transplant the orchids. If you need anything, just call me." After Huo Qingci finished speaking, the two returned to the room, closed the door, and went into their own space.
…
After Lin Man stepped into the space, she went straight to the warehouse as if she was familiar with the route.
She came to the storage shelf and quickly scanned the dazzling array of items, finally stopping on the neatly arranged honey jars.
She just reached out and gently took four large jars of honey, holding them steadily in her arms.
Then, she turned to the shelf next to her and took down six cans of spiritual tea that exuded a faint fragrance.
After she delivered these to the villa lobby, she then moved to another shelf which was full of spiritual rice.
She effortlessly lifted a bag of rouge rice weighing 50 kilograms, placed it on the prepared cart, and carried four bags in a row.
After moving the spiritual rice, she thought Huo Qingci would be very busy in the second half of the year, so she went back to the warehouse and carefully took out a jar of ginseng tonic wine, two kilograms of bird's nest, and half a kilogram of cordyceps and put them back in the villa.
Later she went to the warehouse and moved a jar of salted duck eggs, a jar of pickled vegetables, and a jar of fragrant meat.
After taking a short rest on the sofa, Lin Man turned around and entered the foggy space again, which was full of vitality.
Lin Man walked straight to the chicken coop, opened the door skillfully, and quietly approached the hens that were foraging.
After finding the right opportunity, she acted with lightning speed, caught six fat hens in one go, and quickly put them into the chicken coop prepared in advance.
Then she took a big chicken coop and caught six big ducks.
There was no electricity or cold storage in Huo Qingci's space, so Lin Man naturally did not prepare seafood for him.
After sending the chickens and ducks back to the villa, Lin Man rushed to the white spiritual field without stopping.
Various crops and fruits were planted in the white spiritual fields, but at this moment, what attracted her attention most was not the fruits, but the spiritual rain that had just been collected and put into buckets.
Without saying a word, she poured all the spiritual rain collected in all the buckets into one bucket. She planned to give this bucket of water with rich spiritual energy to Huo Qingci for future use.
After collecting the spiritual rain, she ran quickly to the fruit tree with a pair of sharp scissors and started working.
The early-ripening Feizixiao cherries are plump, the bright red cherries are as crystal clear as agate, and the peaches are even more pink and attractive, with a fragrant aroma.
Lin Man was very excited. She picked the lychees, cherries and peaches skillfully and put them into two large baskets.
Only when each basket was filled to the brim did she use her mind to send the spiritual fruits, including the baskets and fruits, into the villa.
