CHAPTER 434: CHAPTER 432: HAN YI’S IMPUDENCE

Mom pointed at her head, trembling with anger. It took Lin Wan a long time to calm her mom down.

She also said all this was done with the help of Yin Peibai.

At the end of May, the weather gradually became hot, and Lin Wan’s mood was irritable.

Han Yi said he would be back in two months, but he still hasn’t returned. That day, a call came to the house; Lin Wan thought there was news from Han Yi, but unexpectedly, it was a call from home. "Big Uncle? Is the house finished?" Lin Wan thought.

"Oh, Ah Wan, the house is almost done. I’m calling you to tell you something."

"What’s the matter, Big Uncle?"

"Your aunt’s Zhang Dan went to your place yesterday. Your aunt secretly sent her on the bus, saying she’s going to work there. Ah Wan, she should arrive in about eight days. She’s taking the bus for the first time, have your brother pick her up. Ah Wan, listen to Big Uncle, let her stay there for a few days and then send her back. Your aunt’s kids, except for your cousin, aren’t cut out for work. It’ll just add trouble to you all."

"...Oh, got it, Big Uncle."

"Big Uncle has nothing else, I just learned about this matter this afternoon. Your aunt sent the child on the train secretly without telling the family. When she didn’t return home at night, your aunt told your uncle. Don’t forget about this."

"Mm hmm, by the way, Big Uncle, I heard from my brother that Brother Ah Zhi has taken over a hill. What’s being planted there?"

"Nothing’s planted, usually he gathers mountain goods, fenced off a large area to raise chickens, ducks, and geese, all growing pretty well. In these two months, it’s been promising. Didn’t think selling mountain goods could be so profitable." Listening to Big Uncle talk happily, you know it’s going well, making Lin Wan relieved.

"That’s good."

After hanging up with Big Uncle, Lin Wan went to class. In the evening, when Mom came to pick her up, Lin Wan told Mom about the call from Big Uncle.

"What? Zhang Dan is coming?" Who knew Mom would have such a big reaction.

Mom had met Zhang Dan, but they had little interaction and didn’t talk much when they did meet. Not very familiar.

From Big Uncle’s words, Zhang Dan’s visit was Aunt’s idea. Aunt is a person with high expectations but little capacity, opportunistic. Of course, also a lazy foodie.

But hard to deny she married well. Uncle is an honest man, follows whatever Aunt says.

"If Mom doesn’t like her coming, Big Uncle’s idea is to let her play here for a few days and then send her back."

"Easy to invite gods, hard to send them away. During New Year, your aunt wanted her to come along, I disagreed. Whatever your aunt is planning, I don’t know, she sees our family doing well and wants to take advantage, her appetite is huge. You don’t know, that Zhang Dan, at a young age, is unprincipled, fixated on your brother. If she really catches my son, our family’s matters will be at her daughter’s mercy in the future. Your aunt’s plan is well calculated. They’re cousins, imagine your aunt thinking like that." Liang Hongmei has suffered no less from Liang Weixiang’s mockery over the years. She’s holding back anger, her daughter clearly came to seduce her son.

"What’s Aunt doing? Over there, we avoid cousin marriages. Not just my brother already having a partner, even without one, my brother wouldn’t fancy Zhang Dandan." She knows her brother best, Zhang Dan believes she’s better off for finishing high school, constantly looking down on others while walking with her eyes almost up in the sky, always acting superior. When meeting someone better, she’d stick her face close to their behind.

Such a person, she’s confident her brother wouldn’t be interested.

"She is such a person."

"What should we do? If she comes over, she definitely has to stay here."

Sigh.....this is also what Liang Hongmei least wants.

Lin Wan’s due date is early June, it’s already mid-May now.

Lin Wan plans to attend classes for one more week before telling the teacher and starting her leave.

These days, during the season change, summer clothes are selling very well. Besides the styles she designed and cut, everything else was handled by Yin Peibai himself.

With Sister Gao and Director Wang, she only took Yin Peibai once. Later replenishments were just a phone call from Director Wang and Sister Gao. She told Yin Peibai, and he’d come over the next day to take them.

Half of the clothes have already been sold. Lin Wan gave Yin Peibai a hundred bucks beforehand. Once the other half is sold out, she’d give Yin Peibai another two hundred bucks; besides the hundred-plus bucks for sewing the clothes, the rest is for Yin Peibai as a hard work fee.

Of course, she hasn’t told Yin Peibai about this; Yin Peibai was touched when he got the money from Lin Wan ahead of time. Just as there was a debt collector these days, she didn’t have to worry anymore.

While Lin Wan was worrying about Han Yi.

That day, she finally saw him with two big luggage bags, a bit darker and thinner. Fortunately, her family Han Yi has a good physique, after a few days’ rest, he’ll return to his fair self. Being out for two months, looking so thin, he must have gone through a lot. "Why didn’t you have any news at all? I was so worried," Lin Wan hugged Han Yi tightly, unwilling to let go. Knowing full well that their mission doesn’t allow outside contact, yet still resentfully criticized him.

Lin Wan’s belly was big, hugging Han Yi, Han Yi was afraid to squeeze her belly, only able to bend slightly, hug her, and comfort her, "Don’t be mad, I’m back now, right? I have a month’s vacation, I can be with you through the postpartum period."

"Mm," Lin Wan sniffled, clinging to his embrace, unwilling to separate.

Helplessly, Han Yi cuddled her in the courtyard for a long time, coaxing her before she was willing to let go and walk into the house.

Only then did Han Yi have time to look at Lin Wan’s belly, larger than when he left, more than double in size. It looked quite scary.

On this mission, Han Yi not only got a Swiss Army knife for himself but also brought back some nice things for Lin Wan and the child. Foreign goods, a big package of sanitary pads, a lipstick, and a pair of jeans, lipstick aside, how did she not know Han Yi had such taste, buying women’s bras and advanced sanitary pads for this era without blushing or hesitating for his wife.

Receiving the gaze from his wife, Han Yi’s face reddened too. These things were bought at a mall they passed by after their mission ended. Initially, he intended to buy some food.

Entering the mall, he saw some women eagerly buying those soft things women like. Thinking his wife would certainly like them too.

So he brought back two packages for her. His few teammates also shopped briefly.

Han Yi noticed the mall was having a promotion, items were expensive there, and Han Yi had limited funds, seeing women gathering in one spot, he bought whatever they bought.

Who knew buying them would reveal the foreign language instructions, he, a grown man, actually bought women’s sanitary napkins. The teammates accompanying him were elite from various military divisions, adept with foreign languages. Good thing he kept it hidden, none of them noticed.

"Ahem...heard you women find these very comfortable. Haven’t seen them domestically, I thought of buying them for you."

If those teammates saw, he’d be embarrassed in front of the whole division.

Considering her husband’s thoughtfulness, bringing gifts back for her from afar, not just the jeans, which would become popular this summer and fall, but also the bra and sanitary pads, although she liked them, they wouldn’t be needed for almost a year. Despite the awkwardness, she was still very happy.

This was the first time her husband brought back gifts from his mission.

Besides Lin Wan’s gifts, he also bought milk powder for their daughter; many cans.

This was indeed considerate. Currently, such upscale items aren’t available domestically.

Han Yi returned in the afternoon, Lin Wan’s mom was busy at the shop, Lin Wan had her last class that day.

In the evening, after dropping Lin Wan at school, Han Yi bought some supplements and went to see Grandma. He sat at Grandma’s house for a while.

Seeing it was about time, he picked up his mother-in-law from the store and took his wife home on the way.

Liang Hongmei wasn’t surprised to see Han Yi arriving, thinking this was about the time he should be returning.

She was transitioning duties with Xiao Gu these days, Xiao Gu managing the store, she wouldn’t be coming out during the due date.

Having agreed with her in-laws, both would be with the child when she goes into labor, both would quickly ride the tricycle with their daughter to the hospital.
