Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 628 - 609: Can’t Watch Anymore

Wang Leqin crossed her arms, snorted, and said, "Do you need to see? You know this, don’t you? Your man speaks and acts in ways that always protect you, unlike mine, who is a macho man at home, but acts like a different man outside."

Lin Wan was quietly amazed, how much grievance had she endured at home to vent about her man like this to a random person she just met.

Wang Leqin seemed to see through Lin Wan’s thoughts and said, "Don’t look at me like that. I only said this to you because I find you agreeable. Alright, I won’t sit at the same table with you. That sister of yours, humph, she annoys me just looking at her."

After saying this, Wang Leqin left with her head held high before Lin Wan could say anything.

Leaving Lin Wan a bit embarrassed.

Brother is considered from the military era of sorts. Although he himself isn’t from the era, the wife he married is.

Adding grandparents, parents, step-parents, in-laws, each sibling is a notable figure.

So today the person officiating is the team leader, Mr. Xu, who works with Dad. This is quite a face-saving event.

Every single friend and family member who came didn’t have a word of complaint.

The eldest of the Lin Family, lost for so many years, is found again and is quite capable. They were just saying how pathetic it was that the Lin Family’s eldest had no wife or children in middle age, and suddenly he pops up with a beautiful wife and two wonderful kids.

The Mei Family’s son married into their family. Many people were saying that Mu Guomin hit it big this time. Instead of ingratiating himself to others, his daughter directly brought him glory by marrying a wealthy son-in-law back home.

Mu Guomin and Li Suolan were all smiles. Today they finally earned some face in front of relatives and friends.

However, they did splurge. This time, they gave their daughter quite a substantial dowry.

But there were also people laughing at them. The matter of reporting their own son-in-law was somehow spread around the compound, and many people knew about it.

But the Lin Family valued their daughter and didn’t make them look bad.

The brother’s banquet lasted until around one in the afternoon before it ended.

"Xiao Wan, what do you think of the dishes here?" After the guests were all seen off, Liang Hongmei walked over to her daughter and asked.

To be honest, the dishes at this state-owned restaurant were okay, just the portions were small. In S City, at their own restaurant, the same table of dishes would be at least 20% cheaper than here.

"It’s alright, the taste is good."

"This is the most luxurious place in Z City. I heard from your aunt that people with status in Z City like to come here for events."

When Lin Wan was eating, she already saw it. Other than being big, it was pretty standard, nothing particularly luxurious about it.

"Mom, how’s your search going recently? Have you found a suitable place?"

"Mom did find a place, but the building is a bit worn out. But there are quite a few people there, it’s a main street. Mom just thinks that building isn’t suitable for business."

"If it’s not suitable, just tear it down and rebuild. If you have time tomorrow, take me to have a look."

"Alright, Mom will take you."

"What are you two talking about, all secretive?" Auntie was busy packing up the leftover chicken, duck, and fish, thinking there might be a problem when she saw the mother-daughter pair frowning.

"I was talking to Xiao Wan about the property. Want to open a restaurant, you know? I saw a spot a few days ago. Planning to take Xiao Wan to see it tomorrow."

"Where at?" This big sister-in-law, having been back a few months, also knew about their restaurant in S City. When the mother-in-law introduced work to this big sister-in-law, she didn’t go. She mentioned wanting to open a restaurant.

"On Agricultural Road, not far from our house. There’s a big commercial building over there. Nearby is a residential area, a school not far, and a few factories, with many people passing by before and after work."

"You mean over on Second Street, right? Isn’t that where Lin Yuan’s hospital is?"

Liang Hongmei was a bit surprised and said, "Xiao Yuan’s hospital is still a short distance from there."

Wang Lu laughed, shook her head, and said, "The place you’re talking about is the back entrance of their hospital. You probably didn’t pay attention."

"I thought it was quite crowded there, next to a clothing street. I’ve only been there twice, didn’t really notice elsewhere. If it’s really near the hospital’s back entrance, then that’s even better."

"Indeed. If you want to open a restaurant, that place is quite suitable."

"I’m unsure, that’s why I want Xiao Wan to accompany me for a look tomorrow."

The leftover chicken, duck, and fish from the wedding banquet, even for wealthy families, wouldn’t be thrown away.

Neighbors from the compound would take some home instead of wasting it.

Grandma and Grandpa were getting older. At the wedding banquet, Grandpa even had a couple of bottles of plum wine with his old war buddies, and now the alcohol was making him drowsy.

Dad quickly asked the younger ones to send a few of the elderly back first.

Luckily, Han Yi hadn’t been drinking, so the task of sending the elderly was all up to him and Brother An Liang.

The brother was already tipsy, and Dad directly asked Brother Congnan and Brother Jianye to take the newlyweds home first.

Lin Wan stayed with the kids and her parents until the end, settled the bills, and then went home.

By this time, Little Star had already fallen asleep in Lin Wan’s arms.

The little guy quite liked the sweet rice porridge, and all that was on the table was quickly finished by the kids.

At the end, it wasn’t enough, so they brought over the remainder from Han Yi’s table.

When at home, Lin Wan often made it for her. Just, unlike others, she didn’t add apple slices inside.

By the time their party got home, they initially thought Brother would be passed out drunk on the bed. But who would’ve thought he’d be wide awake, chatting with Brother Congnan?

"Brother, weren’t you drunk?"

Saozi, coming out of the kitchen with hot water, laughed and said, "He was pretending. When we got home, I intended to help him upstairs to sleep for a bit. But suddenly his eyes popped open, scaring me half to death."

"Haha... Looks like this trick fooled quite a few people." Brother Jianye laughed.

"What trick?"

"The one Yi talked about last night. Diluted the wine you guys toasted him with 80% water."

"You guys are quite clever." Lin Guozhi chuckled a few times, joining them in the living room for tea.

"She asleep?" Mu Qing walked over to Lin Wan. Seeing Little Star sleeping peacefully in her arms, she quickly said, "Why not place her in Mom’s room first? She’ll hear us better when she wakes up."

"Better put her upstairs. I’m worried Dad might roll over her if he goes to sleep."

Dad also had quite a bit to drink today. Unexpectedly, he overheard Lin Wan’s words and said discontentedly, "How would I roll over my granddaughter? Just place her in our room, I’ll cuddle her while I nap."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sister-in-law exchanged helpless smiles!

Han Yi came back after three. Lin Wan had already been lying in bed asleep for half an hour.

Awoken by a light tingling sensation, a handsome face appeared before her eyes. She blearily reached out to check the time, lazily saying, "How long have you been back?"

"Just came back. Where’s the child?"

"In Dad’s room. No one downstairs?"

"The brothers are downstairs playing cards."

"Oh... I just went upstairs, lay down for a moment, and fell asleep right away," Lin Wan said, quickly getting up.

"Got up early in the morning, not yet adjusted to taking a nap in summer. If you want to sleep, just sleep a bit longer."

...

When going downstairs, it was already past four. Fortunately, they were engrossed in their game, so no one noticed. Even so, Lin Wan felt a bit guilty.

Brother Congnan and Brother Jianye came this time, went around the surrounding cities, of course, they couldn’t miss Z City.

The next day, the two of them just pulled their goods to roam the city. Brother also wanted to go with them. But Brother Jianye pushed him right back.
