Chapter 816 (Page 1/2)
Huo Qingci returned home with a steaming hot breakfast in his hand.
He put down his breakfast and tiptoed into the bedroom. He saw Lin Man lying quietly on the bed and sleeping soundly. Her peaceful face made him feel tender.
Huo Qingci closed the door gently, fearing that any noise would wake her up.
However, this subtle movement still caught the attention of his son Huo Yining.
"Dad, why doesn't Mom come out for breakfast? Is she not feeling well?" Huo Yining asked with his eyes wide open and a look of concern.
Huo Qingci quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, your mom is just a little tired and needs to rest for a while. Let's have breakfast first, okay? We still have to go to school later."
As he spoke, he touched his nose guiltily, and the scene of his lovemaking with his wife last night involuntarily emerged in his mind. He secretly regretted that he had been a little too indulgent at that time.
Huo Li, who was standing aside, looked at his eldest grandson meaningfully, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he had guessed something.
Then, he picked up the delicious meat bun from the plate as if nothing had happened and took a big bite.
Huo Qingci gently pulled the stool back a distance, then slowly sat down.
At this moment, Huo Li, who had been silent all this time, suddenly broke the silence and asked, "Qingci, are you not planning to come back for the New Year this year?"
Hearing his grandfather's question, Huo Qingci raised his head slightly, looked at Huo Li and said, "Grandpa, I'm afraid I really don't have time.
As you know, the newly developed drug is about to enter the clinical trial stage, so I think I will be very busy during this period."
Huo Li nodded to show his understanding, but there was still a hint of regret in his eyes.
Then he added, "This year our family may spend the New Year together in the courtyard, but Xiaoman probably won't be able to bring the children to see you."
Huo Qingci smiled and responded, "Well, Manman has already told me about this. She said that she might not be able to spend the New Year with me in Hai City.
But if she can squeeze out some time before the New Year, she will still take a bus to come and see me."
"That's fine." Huo Li thought for a moment and continued, "Once Ningning and the others have their winter break, I'll let Qinghuan stay at the courtyard with me, and then let Xiaoman take a bus over to visit you.
If the couple is separated for a long time, conflicts and misunderstandings are inevitable.
I don't want to affect the relationship between you two by always keeping my granddaughter-in-law by my side to take care of me!" At this point, Huo Li couldn't help but sigh.
He knew very well that his grandson was young and energetic, and it was inevitable that he would have some physiological needs.
If one day he loses control of himself and makes a mistake, hurting his granddaughter-in-law's heart, then this originally happy family will be in danger of falling apart.

So no matter what, we have to find a way to let the couple spend more time together.
"Grandpa, you misunderstood me. Even if Manman and I live in different places, my heart is always with her. Don't worry, I won't do anything rash. I will grow old with Manman."
Huo Li naturally believed in the character of his eldest grandson. If he was a playboy, he would probably have started looking for a partner at the age of seventeen or eighteen, but he didn't.
He fell in love with Lin Man at first sight, so he came to him and asked for marriage, and then they got married in a flash.
Over the years, the couple has had a very good relationship. They have four children and have never quarreled or had a fight over anything.
Unlike his second grandson Huo Qingyan, whose love life was bumpy, his two marriages didn't seem very happy. In fact, it was all a person's fate.
When Huo Yiwen heard the news, his eyes widened. He looked at Huo Li with surprise and curiosity and asked, "Grandpa, you said we're going to move to the city next semester?
And this year we're going to celebrate Chinese New Year in that courtyard! So...do we have to move our TV there too?"
Huo Li smiled and nodded, answering affirmatively: "Of course we have to move it there. There's a TV there, and everyone can get together to watch shows and chat. That would be lively enough!"
At this time, Huo Qingci on the side couldn't help laughing. He gently patted his youngest son Huo Yiwen on the head and said jokingly: "Wenwen, your great grandfather really likes crowded and lively scenes the most!
During the Chinese New Year this year, maybe he will even call your fourth grandfather and fifth grandfather to the courtyard to celebrate the New Year with great joy!"
Hearing this, Huo Yiwen couldn't help but frown, sighed softly and said: "Alas, although it is lively when there are many people, it will be hard for Mom."
Huo Li quickly comforted her, "Wenwen, don't worry, we won't let your mother run around all by herself.
If they want to come here to celebrate the New Year, they have to work with us!" As he said this, Huo Li touched Huo Yiwen's head lovingly.
Huo Yining said seriously, "We are all grown up now and have the ability to help mom with some of the housework! Besides, my uncle is here, and grandma will come to help too."
Then he paused, "Now Fourth Grandma and Fifth Grandma seem to have become more diligent. It's just Second Aunt, who takes care of the children all day long and doesn't seem willing to help out herself." After saying that, he shook his head gently, looking a little helpless.
When Song Jingjing was mentioned, Huo Li frowned even more tightly, and his face showed more and more obvious dissatisfaction.
Back then, Song Jingjing looked gentle and virtuous, but now, she has completely changed her appearance, she is like two different people, which is really sad.
