Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space-Chapter 968: Breaking Up

Sun Zhenling glanced at the doorway, then lowered her voice: "I was having dinner with Yuan Yikai outside, and happened to be spotted by his real mom. That woman is truly unreasonable, trying to lecture me like a mother-in-law the moment she showed up.

That instantly infuriated Yuan Yikai, and he just embarrassed her.

But who knows how that woman found out about my workplace? She came over a few days ago, said some inappropriate things in front of my colleagues, and even my boss came to talk to me.

It was Yikai who came over and explained the situation, and then he took me away."

Although Xinyan felt some sympathy for Yuan Yikai, she really didn’t want her cousin to marry into a family with such an irrational mom.

The main issue is the abundance of troubles. If she keeps coming over to cause problems every few days, how are they supposed to live after marriage, and how will she manage her job?

Xinyan looked at her cousin, who was completely worried: "So, what do you think?"

Sun Zhenling lowered her head: "Cousin, I know none of you approve of us. Yikai’s family matters are indeed quite troublesome, but Yikai himself is really nice and very ambitious. I don’t want to part from him."

As she said this, she began to choke up.

Xinyan patted her hand: "It’s best if you come clean with your parents about this and see if there’s any way to help him sort things out. If you keep going on like this, your relationship will just be worn out."

Sun Zhenling went silent after hearing her cousin’s words.

Thinking about it, it’s true that this situation isn’t sustainable. Her parents don’t want her to date Yikai because they’re afraid she’ll suffer in the future.

On the other hand, Yikai proposed breaking up because he doesn’t want to drag her into his messy family affairs and make her regret it later.

But she never thought about giving up on this relationship: "Cousin, you’re right. I should be honest with my parents. Maybe if I get their support, Yikai wouldn’t think that way."

Xinyan didn’t know if her advice was right or wrong, but she felt she really couldn’t bring herself to suggest giving up. After all, Yuan Yikai is quite good-looking, and he’s ambitious. She heard he’s doing very well in the sales department at the distillery.

Perhaps resolving her internal conflict brought back her vivacity: "Cousin, let’s go see the baby niece. I even prepared a little gift for her."

Xinyan remembered she hadn’t yet given the gift she prepared for her niece and smiled: "Sure, let’s go together. I haven’t given my gifts yet either."

Xinyan knew her parents prepared a gold lock for the baby, so she prepared a pair of silver bracelets, as well as some lotion and baby powder specifically for the child.

The two of them took their prepared gifts and went back to the second courtyard.

When they entered, several elders were playing with the baby.

Seeing them come in, Gu Wanqing smiled and waved them over: "Come quick and look, she was just blowing bubbles."

Upon hearing Gu Wanqing’s words, Xinyan felt a little worried, but she still stood in the room for a moment before walking over.

Seeing her niece was full of spirit, she discreetly checked her over and found nothing abnormal, which eased her mind.

Previously, her senior told her that babies blowing bubbles at one month old is often because the baby’s nervous system isn’t fully developed, their regulatory ability is poor, their salivary glands are immature, their oral cavity is relatively shallow, and their swallowing ability isn’t perfected, causing them to blow bubbles.

However, another possibility is that it is a typical symptom of infant pneumonia, which is why she first observed and then checked. Seeing the baby was fine, she eased her worries.

Everyone didn’t notice Xinyan’s actions and continued talking about the child.

Sun Zhenling stepped forward: "Aunt, does the baby have a name yet?"

Su Aihong smiled gleefully: "Yes, she’s named Han Feifei. How does it sound, nice right?"

Sun Zhenling nodded vigorously: "It sounds lovely."

Saying this, she handed over the set of clothes, hat, and tiger head shoes she prepared: "Aunt, this is a gift from this cousin to the baby niece."

Su Aihong laughed: "Oh, Zhenling even prepared a gift! Feifei must properly thank her cousin. See, so many people are thinking about you."

Only then did Xinyan hand over her prepared gift as well: "Since the cousin gave one, naturally I, the aunt, can’t be left out."

Su Aihong graciously accepted, smiling: "Oh, when did you prepare these? They’re so beautiful."

A pair of adjustable silver bracelets, specially crafted by an old silversmith she specifically sought, based on designs from the modern era. She even ordered twenty pairs, varying only by patterns, such that the old silversmith thought she was planning to sell them.

She heard from others that this old silversmith had excellent craftsmanship, but his son and daughter-in-law didn’t want him overworking, as it strained his eyesight.

When Xinyan found him, seeing it was a big order, perhaps he wanted a proper farewell to his craft, and so he accepted Xinyan’s request.
