Chapter 218: Revenge for My Son (Page 1/2)
Lin Man bought tofu and bean curd, and went back to the school gate to wait for Huo Qingci to pick her up. She only waited for a few minutes before getting in his car.
Lin Man reminded: "Qingci, did you buy the pagoda candy?"
"I bought fifty and put them in my space. I'll take out twenty later. Ningning is still young, so two or three will be enough."
"I took the anthelmintic medicine from my space. Do you want some? The anthelmintic medicine from my space is more effective than the pagoda candy. It can disintegrate the roundworms. At least you can't see any living worms."
Huo Qingci smiled and shook his head. "I took anthelmintic medicine this morning, but I guess I don't have any roundworms in my stomach."
"From now on, we will only eat vegetables and fruits from space, and we generally won't get roundworm disease."
"Si Jie and Grandpa are here, so it's impossible for them not to go out to buy groceries. If we don't go back at noon, Grandpa will ask the driver to take him to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy groceries in the morning."
Lin Man also knew that this was unavoidable. Even if their family of four lived together alone, they would occasionally have to go out to buy groceries to avoid arousing suspicion.
When they got home, Huo Qingci took out a small paper bag from his pocket, took out three pagoda candies from it and handed them to Huo Yining, "Ningning, have some candy."
Huo Yining took it without thinking. He took one and put it in his mouth, then took another and put it in Huo Yian's mouth. Lin Man quickly snatched it away and said, "Ningning, your brother is still young and can't eat candy."
Her second child is not even one year old yet, so he definitely cannot take deworming medicine. Huo Yian watched the candy that was about to reach her mouth fly away, and she burst into tears.
“Mom…Mom…”
Lin Man returned the yellow pagoda candy to Huo Yining and said, "Eat it yourself."
Then she reached out to hug Huo Yian, "An'an, be good. Mommy will hold you to see the chicks. Don't cry. You can eat eggs later."
"Mom, I want to go see the chicks too."
"Okay, come on your bike!"
Huo Yining crunched the remaining two pagoda candies, then nimbly climbed onto his compact tricycle.
In order to make her youngest son happy, Lin Man gently picked up Huo Yian and walked towards Aunt Tian's yard.
Because the old hen in Aunt Tian's house had just hatched thirteen cute chicks, and Liao Sijie would take Huo Yian to watch these chicks almost every day.
Huo Yian loves them very much. As soon as he sees these little chicks, he can't wait to go out and take a walk.
Just as Lin Man was about to go to Aunt Tian's house with her son in her arms, a group of women gathered around with bowls of rice in their hands.
Among them, a girl named Zhang Cuifen was the first to greet Lin Man: "Teacher Lin, have you had dinner?"
Lin Man smiled and shook her head, then replied, "Not yet. We just got home from get off work."
Zhang Cuifen then suggested, "You can ask your cousin to prepare the meal in advance so that you can eat as soon as you get home."
Lin Man responded gratefully, "Si Jie has to take care of the children and cook at the same time. It's really too hard. Let's do it ourselves when we get back. There's no rush."
"Where are you going? Is your An An going to Auntie Tian to see the chicks? He comes over several times a day. Why don't you buy a few and take them home to raise."
"Our yard is small and we can't raise them."
Lin Man was thinking, since her son liked furry animals so much, should she raise two rabbits for them to play with?
But there are only chickens, ducks, geese, pigs and sheep in the space, but no rabbits!
Otherwise, let Huo Qingci go into his space and take out a turtle to raise for fun, but turtles are ugly and bite people.
Huo Yining sat on the bicycle and looked at Lin Man pitifully, "Mom, can you go to Aunt Tian's house and buy some chicks?"
"Why, you like chicks too?"

"No, my younger brother likes it. I'll buy him a younger brother and let him raise him. When he grows up, I'll eat him."
Zhang Cuifen, who was standing by, chuckled, "Your Ningning has always been good at eating since he was young. No wonder he's so fat. Do you guys eat chicken every day?"
Lin Man frowned and said, “Sister Zhang, my Ningning probably absorbs water well and will gain weight even if she drinks water.
We don't have the means to eat chicken every day. Even if we did, we don't have the tickets. You all know that we don't even have a single chicken at home."
Zhang Cuifen laughed, "I was just kidding. Your Ningning is the fattest in the whole compound, and An'an is not thin either. I thought you made delicious food for them every day."
Huo Yining interrupted, "Auntie, I don't eat chicken every day. I haven't eaten chicken for a long time. My father makes me eat vegetables every day. He says that vegetables are nutritious."
Qin Xiaomin, who had finished her meal and was out for a walk, heard what Huo Yining said and jokingly said, "Where do you buy your vegetables? Auntie should go buy some too.
Poor Xiaoyong, he eats eggs every day but still can’t gain weight! What did you eat to grow up so fat, little guy?
It was this auntie who called him a fat pig, and his mother said she was impolite and not to talk to her.
Huo Yining grumbled unhappily, "Mom, let's take my brother to Aunt Tian's house!"
Lin Man looked at Qin Xiaomin with a smile, but the smile did not reach her eyes. This woman was just jealous that her son was stronger than her son, so she slandered her son and called him a fat pig?
Indeed, her son Deng Yong was as thin as a bamboo pole. He was one or two years older than her daughter Ningning, but probably weighed less than Ningning.
"Comrade Qin, your son doesn't gain weight even though he eats eggs every day. Could he have stomach worms? If he does, then it's useless to eat eggs."
After Lin Man finished speaking, she walked to Qin Xiaomin's side, hugged her youngest son with her left hand, and patted his neck with her right hand. "Don't move, there's a moth."
Without anyone noticing, Qin Xiaomin was given some appetite-stimulating weight-gaining medicine.
Qin Xiaomin touched her neck suspiciously, thinking that she didn't feel any itch, so where did the moth come from?
"You just said my son is thin. Is it because he has roundworms in his stomach?" Qin Xiaomin asked with a frown.
"Well, I'm not sure about that. But to be on the safe side, you'd better take your son to the hospital for a check-up." Lin Man answered casually.
At this moment, Huo Yian suddenly said, "Mom, let's go quickly. Aunt Tian will put the chicks in the cage when it gets dark!"
Lin Man nodded quickly and said, "Okay, baby, we'll be there right away."
After saying that, she picked up Huo Yian and walked towards Aunt Tian's house, while Huo Yining followed behind her on his bicycle.
In fact, she came to Aunt Tian's house this time under the pretext of bringing her children to see the chicks, just to find an opportunity to give Qin Xiaomin some weight-gaining medicine.
After all, Qin Xiaomin dared to bully her son, and she would not let it go easily.
A man who does not seek revenge is not a gentleman. She must seek revenge immediately, otherwise she may forget about the grudge over time.
After Lin Man, her mother, and her son left, Qin Xiaomin sneered, "Bah! You're kidding me! Her son is as fat as a pig. He must eat meat every day at home, and he won't admit it! Is she lying because she's afraid people will ask her for meat?"
Zhang Cuifen finished her last bite of cold rice and advised, "Xiao Min, don't talk about him like that. Ningning is fat and looks like a New Year picture doll. Have you ever seen a pig as good-looking as his?"
"My son is no worse than him if he gets a little fatter."
Zhang Cuifen sneered in her heart. Qin Xiaomin's son looked like a bamboo pole, with a sallow complexion and no flesh on his face. What good was having big eyes? This woman had no self-awareness at all!
