Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 605 - 586: Mei Langchi’s Trouble

This time, Han Yi sent the photos not only to Lu Zheng but also to himself, and another copy to Zhang, another to the district’s communication room.

If the photos sent to Lu Zheng and himself were intercepted, they couldn’t prevent the copies sent to Zhang and the communication room from spreading.

For a while, rumors circulated throughout the district about Mei Langchi having a mistress before his divorce.

Originally, Mei Langchi was expected to be promoted to a regular regiment commander, but because of this incident, his appointment was held back, and he himself was under investigation.

Mei Langchi insisted on his testimony, resolutely denying any relationship before the divorce, claiming it started only afterward. Whose child this was, he didn’t know.

"Leader, if the child were mine, I would certainly admit it. You can take a closer look at the child. Which part resembles anyone from the Mei Family? Besides, I am a military person, aware that such mistakes shouldn’t be made." Mei Langchi was relentlessly questioned and investigated by the leadership these past few days.

As a result, Ye Qing’s side now also had no time to address it. One could say that he was struggling to protect himself.

Four days later, the incident was finally brought to the attention of Mei Shuping in Capital City.

Actually, this matter wasn’t considered severe; it could be regarded as light or serious. If Mei Langchi’s ex-wife, Tao Jia, sued Mei Langchi and Ye Qing, it would be more serious. A prison sentence of up to two years or detention would be considered light, but being expelled from his rank would be Mei Langchi’s real issue.

If expelled, no matter how capable the Mei Family is, Mei Langchi wouldn’t dream of returning to the division.

Mei Shuping wouldn’t let his son commit such mistakes. He would surely resolve it for his son.

If the military person doesn’t commit bigamy and the spouse doesn’t sue, the court won’t deal with a soldier merely having an affair.

Hence, after a week’s suspension, Mei Langchi received a severe penalty, losing the chance for promotion this time.

It’s estimated that this matter would need to settle for a year or two, only rising through ranks after earning several major achievements.

Due to this incident, Mei Langchi equates to staying stagnant for five years. This wasn’t a good thing for him.

Trying to outsmart and failing, Mei Langchi couldn’t take down Han Yi’s brother-in-law but destroyed his own future.

Mei Shuping initially wasn’t satisfied with his son’s divorce, and now he was reported for having unclear relations with a woman.

Mei Shuping was very disappointed with his son’s performance over these two years.

At this moment, Mei Shuping, who had been traveling for a few days, stood in front of Mei Langchi full of anger, appearing frustrated like iron that fails to become steel.

"Do you know, these past two years I’ve tried to get you opportunities for achievements, wanting you to advance more smoothly. Unexpectedly, you turned it into this. Such a good opportunity, now handed over to others. Look at you, and look at Lang Yi. He’s now at the same level as Zhang, and he’s only two years older than you."

"Dad, I am your real son. No matter how amazing he is, he can’t escape the label of an illegitimate son." Mei Langchi looked dismissively at the imposing father in front of him, amusedly saying, "Lang Yi, Lang Yi’s name is even closer than mine. Dad, did he agree?"

"You...." His son’s words choked Mei Shuping, leaving him red-faced, unable to counter.

"Dad, isn’t it you who secured the further training quota for him secretly? Good for him. I am such a failure, letting you down, and now starting to quietly nurture another. Is it because Dad sees me as incompetent, planning to completely give up?"

"If I were to completely give up on you, would I still appear before you now? Why do you have so much resentment? A dignified man, why bother with trivial matters like a woman? Lang... Han Yi now completely doesn’t recognize me. Even the slightest move I make is noticed by him. If I want to help him, he won’t accept. The further training quota was something he had the capability to secure by himself, not needing my intervention." Mentioning Han Yi, Mei Shuping also felt hopeless; his son didn’t acknowledge him. What else could he do?

"I’m being petty? Dad, Han Yi is just somewhat outstanding academically, yet you seem obsessed, daily thinking of ways to bring him back to the Mei Family. Ignoring your wife and children at home. Dad, do you also want to bring Han Yi’s mom back into the Mei Family?"

"Damn it, is this something you should say?"

"Why shouldn’t I say it? Dad now seems entranced, fixated on having your wonderful son. Even this time when he got injured on a mission earning a first-class merit, isn’t it you who secured it for him? Hah, wholeheartedly devoted to Han Yi, but what about Han Yi? He doesn’t appreciate it and is plotting against your current son."

"What does that mean?"

"What does that mean?" Mei Langchi swiftly tossed the photos onto the table, angrily pointing them out, saying, "Look, I dare to bet that this time’s incident was orchestrated by your good son." Mei Shuping was stunned, eyes wide open, asking, "You suspect Han Yi orchestrated this?"

"Hmm. It’s not suspicion, it’s certainty. Sending anonymous letters isn’t the first time; it’s already the second. If Dad doesn’t believe, you can go to S City directly to question him. Heard he’s quite badly injured this time, hasn’t Dad longed to go?" Mei Langchi couldn’t tolerate his father’s bias, feeling deeply uneasy inside.

Why was Han Yi so excellent, why was he supposed to be Dad’s son; if he weren’t so excellent, wouldn’t that be great. If so, he wouldn’t reject him like now.

Blame him for being too excellent. He shouldn’t have been born in the Mei Family.

Ultimately, the Mei Family could only be his.

Dad now estimated he wouldn’t care about the grandparents’ feelings, but he wouldn’t, Mom knew, and he would let Grandpa and Grandma know too, while acting preemptively. He would never allow his grandparents to agree to Han Yi joining the Mei Family.

Listening to his son’s words, Mei Shuping felt suspicious, thinking this matter truly had something to do with Han Yi.

If it were indeed Han Yi, then the situation wasn’t too optimistic; privately, he hoped the two brothers could be harmonious.

In the future, both could become assets to the Mei Family. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Seems his thinking was too simplistic, not considering the younger son’s mindset. Letting him know Han Yi existed was initially to prepare him, priming the brothers to cultivate feelings.

Unexpectedly... things always turned out contrary to hopes!

Han Yi and his brother spent these two days creating an entrance in the brother’s small courtyard. In this way, the three families were interconnected, making things much more convenient.

Saozi would leave tomorrow. Taking advantage of the weekend, his brother took Saozi to the movies, buying a plethora of snacks and supplements for her to bring along.

Entering early July, Lin Wan made two new skirt designs and one dress.

Without the department store’s business, other small clients still weren’t few. She advertised for a month, which had exceptional effects.

Because of this, Brother Jianye also planned to follow her method, doing rounds of advertisements on their province’s TV station, newspaper, and radio.

Lin Wan also found it feasible.

Meanwhile, Wu Liu who had been away for a month, returned. Ready to pull another batch of goods.

This time Brother Wu wanted five thousand pieces.

"Brother Wu, how did the last batch of goods sell?"

"Quite well, you know, your southern region is far more affluent with people willing to spend on food and clothing. Guangdong and Shanghai regions have recently had several private clothing factories spring up, and they’re producing quite attractive clothes. Local public clothing factories have been squeezed significantly, and it’s expected they might go bankrupt within a year or two. Private enterprises will increasingly dominate."

Lin Wan nodded slightly, this situation was indeed true.

"However, the shipment I took over this time sold very well mainly due to the beautiful designs. Even the factories in Guangdong couldn’t beat our styles, so this time I plan to make another trip."

"Then when does Brother Wu need the goods?"

"I need to stay here for half a month, I brought up a batch of radios and televisions from the south, I need to handle them first."

"Okay, I’ll help you speed up production these few days."

"By the way, is Sister Shi around? I also want to haul a batch of bean paste over."

"Made a call yesterday, estimated she’ll be back in a few days."

"That’ll work, you guess whom I sold Sister Shi’s batch of bean paste to this time?"

"Could it be that a major client bought it all?"

Wu Liu laughed, "Sister guessed right; sold to a middleman."

Lin Wan raised her eyebrows, this matter was quite reliable!

Brother Wu’s televisions were colorful, and Yin Peibai recently added one to his home. A 15 inches one, costing seven to eight hundred.
