Chapter 381: Song Jingjing Shares Secrets (Page 1/2)
Huo Li learned that Mr. Ye had suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and was admitted to the hospital. He also heard from an old friend that the Wang family member had undergone another kidney transplant. He knew that the fool Ling Fei must have donated a kidney to Wang Chunlin.
In the evening, he said to Lin Man, "Xiao Man, fry a bowl of peanuts tonight and get a couple of extra side dishes. I want to have a couple of drinks with Jun Shan and Qing Ci."
Lin Man was puzzled as to why her grandfather was so happy today. He was clamoring for a drink in such hot weather. She did not ask too much, thinking that she would know the answer during dinner in the evening.
After cooking, Lin Man found that Huo Yian had eaten watermelon, and his clothes were covered with watermelon stains, so she took him to take a shower and changed his clothes.
It was a hot day, so Lin Man would give them two or three baths a day. After lunch, they were sweating profusely, so they took a bath and had a nap.
If they got their clothes dirty and made themselves sticky in the afternoon, Lin Man would take them to take a bath, and then take them into the space to take another bath before going to bed.
Anyway, she has quit her job now and has nothing to do, so she likes to keep the children clean and smell good, play with the two children every day, and tutor Huo Qinghuan in his studies and teach Huo Yining to recognize words.
In her spare time, she can grow vegetables in the corner of the backyard and make various desserts and snacks with her children. Anyway, she has plenty of time to do it.
Lin Man felt that such a life was very comfortable. There was no need for fighting, no need to intrigue with colleagues, and no need to rush to make a lot of money. Anyway, the time was not right now. The key was to relax and take good care of her health.
At half past six, Huo Qingci came back from get off work. Huo Junshan came with his wife Xiao Ya and second daughter-in-law Song Jingjing.
Song Jingjing was holding a bag of bananas and a bag of egg cakes. She handed both bags to Lin Man and said with a smile:
"Sister-in-law, I went back to my parents' home yesterday. My parents bought me a lot of good things. I brought some bananas and egg cakes for An An and Ning Ning to eat."
Lin Man said thank you, took the two bags from Song Jingjing's hand, put the bags on the coffee table, and then asked everyone to eat first.
Huo Junshan looked at the crispy fish and peanuts on the table and knew that his father must be craving for alcohol again.
At this time, Huo Qingci came over with a bucket, and in the bucket there were several bottles of beer chilled with well water.
Huo Junshan fished out a bottle of cold beer from the bucket, bit open the beer cap with his teeth, sat back in his seat, poured a full bowl of beer for his father, and then poured a bowl for himself.
"Dad, you invited us over for dinner today. Is there anything you want us to do?"
"What do I need you to do? Stop imagining things. Qingyan is not at home. I'll ask Qingyan's wife to come over for dinner."
Song Jingjing looked at Huo Li with a smile: "Grandpa, I will come to see you often when I have time."
"You don't have to come here often. You're pregnant and still have to work. Rest more when you have time."
Lin Man looked at Song Jingjing quietly. There was a very obvious scar on the right side of her face, and there were many spots on both cheeks due to pregnancy. Fortunately, Huo Qingyan, the face-chaser, was not at home, otherwise he would definitely give his wife a cold face again.
Fortunately, Song Jingjing is an optimistic person and did not become depressed because of Huo Qingyan's departure.
Lin Man actually had little contact with Song Jingjing, and didn't know what kind of person she was, but one thing was certain, that is, Song Jingjing was more polite than Ling Fei. At least she would not come empty-handed, and after dinner she would take the initiative to help with some housework within her ability.
Song Jingjing sat down next to her mother-in-law and said to Lin Man on her other side, "Sister-in-law, let me tell you a big thing that happened in the Qiao family."
Lin Man didn't want to hear anyone talking about her Qiao family. She smiled awkwardly at Song Jingjing and then took a bowl to fill her son's food.
Song Jingjing said to herself, "I went back to my parents' house yesterday, and my mom told me that Qiao Sitian and Ling Fei had a fight. Ling Fei kicked Qiao Sitian's uterus and ruptured it. I don't know if she can have children."
Lin Man's face showed no expression, but everyone in the Huo family was shocked.
Xiao Ya asked Song Jingjing, "Jingjing, you said Ling Fei kicked Qiao Sitian so hard that her uterus ruptured?"
"Yes, it was Deputy Minister Qiao's wife who told my mother about this, but they didn't tell me the reason.
However, Ling Fei is not having an easy time either. She donated a kidney to Mr. Wang and is still living in the hospital.
I heard that the Qiao family suspected that she was the Wang family's illegitimate daughter, but it was unclear whose illegitimate daughter she was. "
After Song Jingjing finished speaking, she looked at Lin Man again, wanting to see her reaction.
Her mother said that Lin Man was her eldest sister-in-law, and she should build a good relationship with her so that there would be someone to speak for her in the Huo family in the future.
How did Lin Man react? Lin Man had no reaction at all. Ling Fei was going to have her kidney removed by the Wang family, and she already knew the ending.
Even if Qiao Sitian's uterus had not been ruptured by Ling Fei's kick, she would have lost her fertility.
These two people no longer had any contact with her, so Lin Man naturally didn't want to care about their affairs.

Xiao Ya sighed deeply upon hearing the news. "I never thought Ling Fei would donate a kidney to Elder Wang. I also never thought she would be so impulsive as to kick someone again."
Fortunately, her son divorced her, otherwise she would kick her son whenever she was unhappy.
Huo Junshan laughed and retorted, "What's so unexpected? Ling Fei is impulsive. She kicked Bai and caused her to have a miscarriage. Otherwise, how could she have lost her good job in the art troupe?
As for her kidney donation, it was definitely not voluntary. How could she, a very selfish person, voluntarily donate a kidney to someone else?"
It’s not that he looks down on Ling Fei, but Ling Fei only has herself, and her family members are not as important as herself.
Huo Li picked up the bowl and drank beer in big gulps. After two sips, he put the bowl down and looked at Huo Junshan and said, "Ling Fei donated her kidney, whether she was willing or forced to do so.
However, this is the second kidney transplant operation for the Wang family. It is hard to say whether he can survive the first few months, after all, he is not young anymore.
Now, Old Man Ye and his wife were probably so frightened after hearing about Ling Fei's kidney donation that they were both admitted to the hospital ward. They suffered a stroke and became paralyzed. "Alas, the younger generation is disobedient, and the elders are worried too!"
Huo Junshan nodded and said seriously, "Dad, we will be obedient and not let you worry too much."
Huo Li smiled slightly and patted Huo Junshan on the shoulder, "Well, I know you are all good children."
In fact, Huo Li has gradually understood a truth in his heart, that is, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and he does not need to worry too much.
Too much worry will only make you tired and cause trouble to your younger generations.
So, he decided to let nature take its course and stop worrying too much about his children's affairs, just let them be!
His children are all doing well at work, his eldest grandson is also doing well, he doesn't have to worry about his second grandson going abroad, Huo Wenjing is learning to drive and is doing well, and his youngest son will arrange a job for Huo Xi.
Among his grandchildren, Huo Qinghuan is the only one still studying, and his academic performance is pretty good.
His two great-grandchildren are too young for him to take care of. By the time they grow up, his body will probably have rotted away.
After dinner, Huo Li called his son and eldest grandson back to their room. Huo Qinghuan was sweeping the floor while Lin Man was clearing the dishes.
Xiao Ya and Song Jingjing were teasing Huo Yian and Huo Yining. Song Jingjing said, "Mom, why does An An look like a baby girl? If he wears a skirt, outsiders will definitely not know his true gender."
Xiao Ya picked up Huo Yian and kissed him fiercely on the face several times. "My An An is so beautiful. If Ning Ning loses weight, she will definitely be as beautiful as An An."
Huo Yining pouted and said, "Grandma, do you think I'm fat? I won't be fat when I grow taller."
Xiao Ya put her grandson down and patted Huo Yining's little head. "My Ningning is also good-looking, chubby and very cute. You are already very tall, a few centimeters taller than other children of the same age."
After the parents-in-law left, Lin Man and Huo Qingci took the child into the space to take a bath and sleep.
After the child fell asleep, Lin Man asked Huo Qingci, "Qingci, why did grandpa call you to the room?"
"Grandpa said that when Mr. Ye steps down, he will do something to get Fourth Uncle and Fifth Uncle to important positions. They can't just stay in idle positions forever.
He also said he would be returning to the city in two days, possibly to attend a meeting, and asked me to prepare some seasonal fruit for the leader.
"Tomorrow I'll take Qinghuan and the others to stay in the courtyard for ten days or so, and pick the pomegranates, grapes, and dates in the yard."
Lin Man had previously planted two Tunisian soft-seeded pomegranates and a rack of Kyoho grapes in the front yard, and golden thread dates and cherries in the backyard.
During the cherry harvest season, they did not return to the city, and it is estimated that all the big cherries fell to the ground and rotted.
This season is perfect for harvesting pomegranates, grapes and golden candied dates.
Huo Qingci said with a smile on his face, "This way, I don't have to prepare extra fruit for Grandpa.
After all, there were no late-ripening lychees in Beijing, and even if there were, it wouldn't be appropriate to sell them. Furthermore, there weren't many longans or mangoes in the supply and marketing cooperatives.
If the fruit is grown in your own yard, it would be perfect to give it to others as a gift.
If the grapes and pomegranates in our yard grow well, we can give them as gifts.”
Lin Man nodded gently in agreement and continued, "Don't worry about the fruit. If the fruit doesn't grow well, I'll pick them all and leave them for you to feed your livestock.
Afterwards, I will apply some compound fertilizer to the fruit trees and use my supernatural powers to encourage them to bear fruit again. I believe the new fruits will be big and sweet."
"Thank you for your hard work, Manman. The deputy director of our department has a serious liver problem and probably won't be able to continue working this year.
I want to work harder and strive to take over his position. I may have to work overtime frequently in the next month, I hope you can understand. "
