Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 845 - 745: Mei Family Rules (Part 4)

Mei Langchi saw his gloomy face, then followed him in. He hadn’t forgotten what Li Liang said.

Originally, Mei Shuping was watching Han Yi’s busy figure with anger, not expecting his other son to also enter the kitchen.

Angrily, he pointed towards the door from the living room, trembling.

Beside him, Mr. Mei coldly snorted and gave him a glaring look. "Still so hot-tempered. What era is this now? It’s not like our time. Let the young ones do what they want."

Mr. Mei had just seen Han Yi’s family of three happily cleaning up the dishes, and his heart wavered. It had been so long since he felt this warmth in the house.

Alas, people grow old; he too wished for the whole family to be joyful and happy together.

Perhaps his methods this time were wrong!

....

Han Yi’s family of three quickly tidied up the dining table.

Mr. Mei wanted to have a chat with Han Yi, to discuss his time in the army, and also mention what to be aware of tomorrow.

So, the men of the house were called to the study by Mr. Mei.

Little Star played downstairs with Hua Hua. The two children, unaware of the complexities among the adults, played cheerfully.

Lin Wan didn’t want to face Old Mrs. Mei and Xie Lingzhi downstairs. Sitting together would only bring mockery, and she wasn’t about to foolishly seek it out herself.

She felt assured with Little Star downstairs because Old Mrs. Mei genuinely liked her.

Sigh, who knows what this old woman thinks. She disapproves of them, yet adores their child immensely. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

After going upstairs, Lin Wan lit mosquito-repellent incense, applied some essential balm, and moved a stool to sit by the balcony for a while.

After the incense burned out, Lin Wan opened the window and left the room.

Mosquito-repellent incense is highly toxic, and if a pregnant woman inhales it over a long period, it’s easy to cause miscarriage or fetal death.

In her previous life, she had seen similar news.

Taking advantage of this time, Lin Wan went downstairs to boil water herself. She didn’t want to use the hot water Ye Qing prepared for her. Considering Ye Qing’s hatred for her, even if she didn’t poison it, she might secretly put something filthy in.

By then, it’d disgust no one but them.

When Lin Wan went downstairs, perhaps Ye Qing had already heated up two pots, and there was movement in the downstairs bathroom.

She saw Little Star and Hua Hua playing in the living room. It seemed like Xie Lingzhi was giving Old Mrs. Mei a bath in the bathroom.

Tsk tsk, this daughter-in-law indeed did better than her godmother, no wonder Old Mrs. Mei favored her.

When Lin Wan entered the kitchen, Ye Qing was already sweating profusely from the heat.

This maid worked hard, in the big summer without a fan, cooking meal for a whole family. Hot and cold dishes, she’d have to busy herself for several hours. No wonder the maid took a day off today; if it were her, she’d take a day off too.

"Ye Qing, congratulations, you’ve got what you wanted," Lin Wan said as she saw only one pot on the stove, realizing Ye Qing was not going to help them boil water for a bath. She picked up an empty pot, filled it with some water, and placed it on another stove.

"Yes, I’m lucky," Ye Qing rolled her eyes at her and let out a sarcastic laugh.

It’s not luck, it’s resilience!

"Lin Wan, I used to be jealous of you, but now I genuinely hate you. Look at the way you are now, it’s truly disgusting."

"Is it so hard to stand this? Sorry, I never intended to make you like me. By the way, I heard your business is doing well, but I wonder if Mei Langchi knows how you run your business."

Lin Wan’s words suddenly made Ye Qing look at her warily, squinting her eyes, thinking of something unknown.

Lin Wan watched Ye Qing’s expression and silently chuckled, not saying anything further.

It was clear Ye Qing didn’t want Mei Langchi to know about Chen Haichang.
