Chapter 96: Unpredictable Things in Life (Page 1/2)
Huo Qingci didn't expect that this movement would last so long. He was not worried about himself. Once the situation stabilized, his grandfather would definitely find a way to transfer him back.
But my aunt and uncle-in-law will have to wait at least five or six years before they can find a way to help them appeal for redress.
The work on the farm here is extremely hard. There is endless work to do in all seasons, and you have to work under the scorching sun every day.
Huo Qingci was wondering, would it be better if his aunt went to the Northwest?
Lin Man took a bag of potato chips from the shelf and handed it to Huo Qingci, "Try these fried potato chips."
"Manman, are these things still edible?"
"Xiaozhi said they can be eaten. As long as these things don't leave the space, they will always remain in the state they were just brought in."
Having said that, Lin Man is actually a little worried that the fresh food in the freezer will go bad, so she usually doesn't go to the refrigerator to take out the frozen meat to eat.
Huo Qingci tore open the bag, took out a piece of potato chips and handed it to Lin Man first, then took one for himself, "Are these potato chips fried? They taste good, but I still prefer cookies."
Lin Man knew Huo Qingci liked sweets, so she took him to the candy section and said, "Take whatever candy you want."
"Hey, there's also White Rabbit here, why did they change the packaging?"
Seeing that Huo Qingci was interested in White Rabbit, Lin Man took a bag from the shelf, tore it open, took out a pill and handed it to him.
Huo Qingci peeled off the candy wrapper, put the White Rabbit in his mouth, frowned and said, "The milky flavor of the White Rabbit in the last days is not as strong, and the sweetness is not enough."
Lin Man nodded. "Times are changing, and maybe tastes will eventually change too. If you don't like these, there are still many imported candies over there."
"Eating too much sugar can cause tooth decay."
Lin Man smiled and said, "I didn't ask you to eat them all at once. You can pick some that you like and put them in your space. You can eat one whenever you want."
"Manman, you're treating me like a child."
"Qingci, you don't smoke or drink, so what's wrong with eating some candy? This is called a lollipop, you can suck one when you have nothing to do."
Lin Man picked up a can of Zhenzhi Rod from the shelf and handed it to Huo Qingci, "Put it away quickly."
"Okay, thank you Manman."
"You're welcome. If you like, take as much as you can. There's also bulk candy over there. Anyway, this supermarket has several thousand kilograms of candy."
Huo Qingci didn't want to take it at first, but Lin Man kept stuffing it into his arms, one thing after another. As a result, in just over ten minutes, his space was filled with dozens of kilograms of candy.
"That's enough, that's enough, don't take any more."
"Then I'll take you to get other daily necessities! I won't be going out in the future, so you can bring back anything the family needs."
"I feel like marrying you is like marrying a mountain of gold. Manman, you've turned me into a gigolo."
Lin Man smiled and asked back, "Are you a gigolo? Who is so young and can earn a few hundred yuan a month and have more than 30,000 yuan in their savings account?"
Qingci, where did you get all that money? Are those herbs so profitable?"
"Some herbs are indeed very valuable. I started selling them when I was a teenager. And I was rewarded with 700 or 800 each time I donated a prescription. Do you know how many prescriptions I donated?"
"several?"
"I donated three prescriptions to the country and a plaster prescription to the previous hospital."
Lin Man gave Huo Qingci a thumbs up and said, "Doctor Huo is truly a man of high moral character!"

Huo Qingci pursed his lips and smiled, "I can't say I have a noble character. Donating the prescription is indeed for the country and the people, but I also have selfish motives, such as wanting to be promoted faster.
Although those prescriptions are worth a fortune, they are not all donated for free. At least some of them will be rewarded."
Despite what Huo Qingci said, Lin Man still thought he was very noble. Her mother-in-law said that when he was a doctor in his first year, he used half of his salary to help patients who had serious illnesses and had no money to treat them.
"I heard from my mother that you used to be a real Lei Feng, even helping those patients pay for their medical expenses."
"Don't say that. Those patients really can't afford the money, and I can't just watch them die. I'm trying my best to save them. I've made some money selling medicine, so I'm trying my best to help them.
If I don't have much money, I can't help. Did you know that a family member secretly sold blood two or three times to save his wife?
Finally, because of anemia, I fell off the roof while helping someone replace the tiles, and ended up with broken bones and internal bleeding.
"So you donated money to treat his illness?"
"Well, I was the one who saved that man and I also paid for the hospital bills.
His wife, still ill, learned that her husband had fallen from the roof, so she secretly ran out and bought rat poison and ate it.
How could that woman be so irresponsible? Her husband had to sell his blood to pay for her medical treatment, and when she learned that he was injured, she actually committed suicide. Wasn't she trying to make her husband die faster?
"How many children does the patient have?"
"Three. The oldest is nine years old, and the youngest is four."
"Is the woman terminally ill?"
"Not really. It was just a heart rhythm disorder caused by high blood pressure. I originally wanted her to stay in the hospital for a few days and then get her some blood pressure medication. Who knew she'd end up like that before she was even cured? Life is so unpredictable!"
Lin Man didn't want to talk about such heavy topics with Huo Qingci anymore, so she decided to take him to see the various ships in the space collection.
Xiaozhi gave her a nourishing potion to help her stay in the womb, so even if she rolled back and forth on the ground, the baby in her belly would not fall out.
She hasn't felt like vomiting as much in recent days. She wants to persuade Huo Qingci to take her out to sea to fish. She wants to eat big lobsters and abalone.
"Qingci, let's not talk about those patients anymore. Let's go see the high-tech fishing boat."
"High-tech fishing boat?"
"Yes, my space not only has fishing boats, but also helicopters, cars, and submarines. There are several fishing boats in the space, but large ships are too big to be spotted easily."
Huo Qingci suddenly felt something was wrong. What did they mean by the boat was too big and easy to be discovered? What was Manman trying to do?
"Manman, what do you want to do?"
"Xiaozhi said that I am in good health now and the baby in my belly is also doing well, so there is no problem going out to sea to fish.
I want to eat lobsters. I know which sea area has lobsters and abalone. Can we go fishing secretly tomorrow night?"
Huo Qingci never expected that Lin Man actually wanted to go out to sea to fish. Who said that you can go out to sea just by having a boat?
"Manman, even if we have a boat, we can't go out to sea to fish without permission, and we don't know how to drive a boat."
"I can sail a boat, and these boats are high-tech and intelligent. It's not as difficult as you think. If you don't know how, I can teach you."
"Manman, you're still pregnant, and think about it, what if we go out to sea and get discovered?"
