CHAPTER 456: CHAPTER 454: WANG GUIHUA’S MOUTH

She never thought it would end up like this.

"Ah... my stomach. It hurts. Quick, go find someone."

Yang Wei’s mother was stunned, completely not reacting.

"Mom, quickly call Yang Wei, I... ah, I’m bleeding." Sun Yu turned over with difficulty, and upon seeing the blood flowing down between her legs, she panicked and became afraid.

"Ah... Oh, right, right, I’ll go find someone, I’ll go find someone." Yang Wei’s mother was also frightened into reaction by the bright, glaring blood. In confusion, she ran outside.

...

Han Yi’s mood had stabilized a lot these days, because the team’s big autumn competition was approaching.

The team he was leading emphasized shooting as a priority; he had no time to be distressed over there. Damn it, it’s just a quota, he still believed that with his abilities, he could earn it back.

That bastard Mei Langchi dared to withhold his quota; he shouldn’t be afraid of him catching any bribery and relationship exploitation.

Lin Wan also noticed Han Yi’s change these days, and she felt relieved.

Grandma always said, suffering a loss is a blessing, she thought, her Han Yi’s luck wouldn’t be bad.

Wasn’t Han Yi in the past life just like this too? In the end, didn’t he become an exemplary soldier?

Lin Wan also hadn’t gone out these days, and at home, she used a piece of plain cotton floral fabric to make a simple sling bag for carrying the baby.

This way, it’s much more convenient when she takes the baby out, with something to help support it, she can reduce some weight.

Han Yi felt this item was pretty good, and as soon as it was done, he wore it himself and took Little Star for a walk around the yard.

"This thing is useful, it’ll save you a lot of trouble when you go out. After a few days when I’m off, I’ll go buy a stroller for the baby, so it’ll be more convenient to take her out. Xiao Wan, I’m sorry, I’ve neglected you and the baby."

Lin Wan smiled and leaned on his shoulder, saying, "We’re first-time parents; how would we think of everything thoroughly? It’s normal to only realize it when we’re faced with it. You’ve already taken good care of us. Look, the baby is already two months old and hasn’t gotten sick yet. Mom said having a healthy baby is our blessing."

"Yes, Mom is right." Han Yi held the baby with one hand and hugged Lin Wan with the other, smiling.

Lin Wan felt good and arranged to go with Shi Lan to the small market to buy watermelon.

Seeing Lin Wan carrying the baby like that, Shi Lan was very curious and insisted on trying it herself while walking on the road.

Lin Wan had no choice but to take off the sling bag and let her carry the baby along the way to try it out.

"Xiao Wan, don’t throw away the leftover clothes at your house in the future, keep them for me. When I have a baby one day, I can use them. I’m not being greedy... It’s mainly because the things you make for the baby are very comfortable. I like them."

"Sure, I’ll keep them for you. If you really get pregnant in the future, I’ll make new stuff for the baby."

"That would be great. We’ve made an agreement."

"Don’t worry, I keep my word."

"By the way, your Jiang Ning is going to military school. Are you going with him or going back to your hometown?"

"I’m neither going with him nor returning to my hometown; I’ll stay here waiting for him to come back."

Lin Wan blinked and said, "I heard from Wang Guihua that once they go to military school, the house here will be taken back. After graduation, new positions will be reassigned, and in the future, the family will move with them."

Shi Lan sneered, "Don’t listen to her nonsense. Maybe Feng Zhi’s instructor fooled her, not wanting her to stay with the child alone in the team. When she messes up something again, no one will help her. The team sends them to military school to cultivate talent for the military district. After graduation, they’ll definitely return to serve in their original team. The Capital City doesn’t allow families to go with them. If I went there, I would have to rent a house anyway, so staying here is better. Here, I’m even preparing to do business, and it’s close to the mountains, convenient for me to gather mushrooms."

Lin Wan then understood. Of course, she was happy that Shi Lan could stay; she would have company in the future when she came to this place.

"Xiao Wan, I like Little Star from your family more and more. Can you let her call me her godmother? Don’t worry, I promise to love her like my own daughter."

"Go, go, go." Lin Wan hadn’t thought of making her daughter recognize a godparent.

"I’m serious, Xiao Wan. You should go back and discuss it with your Han Yi."

All the way, Shi Lan badgered her, and even when they returned, she hadn’t given up.

Finally, Lin Wan agreed, "I’ll go back and discuss it with my Han Yi. If he doesn’t agree, there’s nothing I can do."

"Alright, you two discuss it well. I’m serious, Xiao Wan. It’s good for your daughter to have more godparents to love her. Don’t let me down."

"If my daughter has four parents, what if she’s closer to you than us? Wouldn’t we be raising a daughter for you for nothing?"

Shi Lan gave Lin Wan a contemptuous look, "What are you thinking? No matter how close she is to us, she can’t be closer than to her birth mother. If you’re worried, why don’t we arrange a child betrothal instead? Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to have a son."

Lin Wan shook her head immediately without thinking, "I don’t want my daughter to become someone’s wife from a young age, and especially not to a younger man by an unknown number of years. A sibling love affair? No, no. Besides, what era are we in now, still thinking about child betrothal?"

"Well... okay, as we agreed, if you don’t arrange a child betrothal for me, just let me be her godmother."

"You shameless."

"I’m willing to shamelessly do this for an extra daughter. What do I need a face for?"

"Little Sister Wang, when are you planning to go back?"

"I’ll be leaving in a few days. I’m afraid my Old Feng won’t have clothes to wear when he gets to the school, so today I specially went to the city to buy some fabric to make him a few sets of casual clothes. I even bought him a watch today." I heard the students at the school were all college students who got in after high school, bright and shiny; I couldn’t let my man lose face either.

Shi Lan and Lin Wan were talking as they walked to the army gate and didn’t expect to see Wang Guihua returning from the city.

Looking at the big bags, she bought quite a lot. She really didn’t hold back for her Old Feng this time.

"A watch, it must have cost quite a bit."

"It’s true. I bought the best one, over one hundred. Sigh... my Old Feng’s several months’ salary is gone just like that." Although her tone was filled with reluctance, Wang Guihua didn’t show any sign of it on her face; instead, she was smiling very happily.

"You, you usually save up money but aren’t willing to spend it." Being stingy, always eating at other people’s houses, who knows how much money she’s saved.

"What else could I do? I’ve been afraid of being poor at home. My Old Feng came over just to have a full meal, and now we’ve finally made it." Wang Guihua wasn’t afraid of others laughing at her family’s poverty anymore, since she had been stingy and pretended to be poor many times. In the future, when her man gets a promotion, many will rush to ingratiate themselves with her, and who dares to speak ill of them?

"Good, that’s really good... soldiers wanting a full stomach. Is that what they call exemplary soldiers? It’s like feeding a dog."

Somehow, at the army gate, a group of a dozen people in uniform were standing.

The people at the front, middle-aged, stood there with an aura of authority that made others not dare to speak too much.

The one who spoke was a military officer at the front, someone Lin Wan didn’t recognize. But she recognized the Mr. Mei next to him.

He seemed to be angered by Wang Guihua’s talk.

"Old Qin, when Feng Xiaoxian and Han Yi return from training, have them see me. The team doesn’t keep idle people, but we also can’t bury talent." After the leader finished speaking, he glanced at the family members and added, "The quality of the family members in the team is too low. Were last year’s training sessions for nothing?"

"Just one short-term training session, it got lax. These days, I’m working on a plan for the family members; their ideology indeed needs improvement." The deputy behind the military officer broke into a cold sweat and said.

Several sisters-in-law listening were awkwardly frozen; it was clearly saying they were unrefined.

A few of them looked dissatisfiedly at Wang Guihua beside them; it was her babbling that stirred up trouble, now dragging them into it too.

Wang Guihua was baffled, turning her head to look at the row of people at the gate; even a fool would know they were team leaders.

Seeing the top leader angry, Wang Guihua nervously pinched a corner of her own, chuckled awkwardly, and courageously stepped forward to explain, "Leader, it’s not what you think, I was just caught in a conversation loop."

"You navigated that conversation loop very well." That leader didn’t say much else, turned around, and walked into the team.

However, Mr. Mei saw Lin Wan and waved to her, "Comrade Xiao Wan, come over for a bit."

Lin Wan, who was about to step back with Shi Lan, paused for a moment and hurried forward, "Mr. Mei."

"Hmm... come, let me see the baby."
