Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 887 - 757: Grandma in Trouble (Part 2)

"Once Bai Jun is done with his business, we’re leaving in a few days."

"Is Bai Jun’s wedding house ready?" Lin Wan asked from the side.

"Yes, it’s a two-bedroom, similar to Saozi’s place." Shen Bai Jun works in a government department and lives in the government compound.

If it weren’t for Grandpa having a house in the military district, and needing to take care of Grandpa and Grandma, Second Uncle might have been living in the government compound too.

"When’s the invitation out? Xiao Wan and I will head there in advance," Han Yi, as someone from the groom’s family, needed to help Bai Jun with the preparations and to greet the guests.

"The day after tomorrow evening, the restaurant is near Saozi’s shop. Lele and I have already talked to Auntie."

Bai Jun had already started following Peng Le’s family’s ways and called Auntie accordingly.

"By the way, has Xiao Jie come back?" After getting married, Shen Jie moved south with her husband and started working as a scriptwriter with him.

The couple hasn’t been separated.

"She came back, and as soon as her brother’s business was done, they hurried back. They said there’s a TV drama to film, and they’re busy revising the script this month, tight deadlines. They thought you’d be back this time, but you weren’t. So, she specifically asked me to bring these to you," said Second Aunt while taking out several books from a bag.

Lin Wan knew Xiao Jie would leave these books for her. Besides storybooks, there were also children’s stories and some related to fashion.

"Xiao Jie just knows my interests, picking all the ones I like."

"She’s always with Xiao Yu now, never home. Recently, her mother-in-law called me, saying she couldn’t persuade them and asked me to urge Xiao Jie to have kids. But Xiao Jie doesn’t listen to me either."

Lin Wan smiled at Second Aunt’s anxious look and advised, "People like them in creative fields don’t like to have kids too early. It affects their work."

"I don’t really understand their stuff, but I still have to say a few words to them."

Lin Wan chuckled without knowing what to say. Once you become a mother-in-law, you start to worry about urging kids.

Han Yi and Bai Jun’s second uncle chatted about outside matters; they didn’t like hearing about mundane family matters either.

Second Uncle’s family went back after having lunch here.

On the day Shen Bai Jun invited guests, Han Yi took them early to the venue. There wasn’t much to set up; it was mainly about handling many guests.

Fortunately, with Little Aunt, Uncle, and two cousins, socializing wasn’t that hard. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Liang Hongmei arranged the Lin Family in a large private room, with two tables, enough for adults and children to sit comfortably.

"Xiao Wan, when you have time, help Saozi with some suggestions." At the dining table, Sister-in-law Wang Xi quietly pulled her aside, "Your brother and I have our eyes on a piece of land. We just don’t know if it’s suitable."

"What land?" Wang Xi wanting to buy land surprised her, considering she and Eldest Cousin both worked at the Agricultural Academy. Why would they need land?

"We’re in the suburbs, quite far from the city, pretty remote. But the place grows particularly sweet tangerines. When your brother and I inspected the area, some tangerines were especially sweet and tart."

"Why does Saozi want that land?" Government workers aren’t supposed to do business.

"We originally went to assess a pig farming site and accidentally discovered that it’s a waste for the land to be abandoned with such delicious tangerines. So, we wanted to buy it and see if we could grow some variety tangerines."

"I see. If Brother and Saozi think it’s good, why not just buy it?"

"That’s true, but since it’s our first time buying land, we don’t know if it’s worth the price they asked. Last time, they said it’s 80,000 yuan for over two thousand mu of land. Your brother and I thought it was expensive."

"80,000? For over two thousand mu?" That’s not expensive at all! "Saozi, how many years is the contract for?"

"Seventy years. It felt a bit expensive to us, so whenever you’re free, your brother and I would like you to go with us to have a look."

"Saozi, what you said is already very cheap."

"No way, it’s so barren there, not even a decent path."

"Alright, just call me whenever you’re free, I’m not busy these days."

"Alright, let’s settle it then."

"Okay."

The family chatted and laughed together until after nine in the evening, seeing off guests one by one.
