Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 950 - 774: Secret (Part 2)

No trace left at all.

After getting these done, Lin Wan quickly took out the foot warmer from under the blanket and let Han Yi warm his hands with it, since it was new anyway.

"Ai Yi, do you think the old man would go crazy if we suddenly took these things away?"

"He’s hidden these treasures for so many years, if you really take them away, he wouldn’t just be angry, he’d probably die of rage."

Lin Wan burst into laughter upon hearing Han Yi not giving Mr. Mei any face.

"This time we caught something to use against the old man. In the future, if he dares to use anything against us, we’ll move all his treasures out, one by one."

"Hmm, alright, I’ll listen to my wife."

"By the way, what did the old man call you to the study for just now?"

"He was upset about us hiding the pregnancy. He didn’t expect you to be of the B type and have this privilege. But he also said, if this child is a boy, he must have the surname Mei."

"I knew he would say that. Ai Yi, what should we do? I don’t want the child to have the surname Mei."

Han Yi affectionately patted Lin Wan’s hair and said with a smile, "Don’t worry, I won’t let him have his way. As soon as the baby is born, we’ll immediately register the child. With your father and grandfather around, he won’t prevail."

"Hmm, if it really is a boy, have you thought of a name yet?"

"I’ve already thought about it. Whether it’s a boy or a girl, the name will be Han Xingyang. How about that?"

"Isn’t that a bit weird? When Xingxing was born, it was at night, and there were stars. If this one is born during the day, where would the stars come from?"

"Even without stars, the child can still be as bright as a star and grow up to be an upright person. It would be even better if it’s born at night."

"Okay, if you say Xingyang, then Xingyang it is." Lin Wan also felt this name was sunny. Boys should be a bit brighter.

The couple stayed upstairs for a while until Aunt Wu came to call them. However, Little Star had actually fallen asleep, sleeping very soundly at that moment. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Lin Wan didn’t wake her up, deciding to wait until she woke up to make some food for the child individually.

When the two went downstairs, the dining table was already set with food. Godfather and Mei Shuping had also come out with the old man.

And Chen Haichang, who just came down from the second floor, not sure where he was just now.

"Oh, dear niece-in-law, it’s almost time, right? Tsk tsk, there’s going to be a new addition to the family. Looks like as an uncle, I’ll have to shell out some money."

"Uncle Three, why were you on the second floor just now?" Lin Wan asked curiously.

"Of course, it’s your grandfather’s arrangement. As a member of the Mei Family, I can’t be without a room, right? Or do you expect me to stay at Second Bro’s house? Oh, by the way, Xiao Yi, your grandpa even bought me a quadrangle courtyard right next to your house. It’ll be convenient for our families to visit each other in the future."

"Really? What a coincidence." Lin Wan was surprised, not understanding why the old man chose a house next to theirs and what his purpose was.

Chen Haichang didn’t say anything further and went straight downstairs.

"Why didn’t you inform us of such a big deal in advance? It’s been a few months since last time." As soon as Lin Wan and Han Yi sat down, Mr. Mei started complaining.

Lin Wan replied, "The family said the baby was still too small, so we shouldn’t announce it."

"According to the current estimate, it was already four months when Sister-in-law came over, right? Not so small anymore." Ye Qing chimed in, deliberately reminding everyone.

Indeed, over four months last time, and it wasn’t noticeable unless you looked closely, thanks to Lin Wan’s good figure and loose clothing. No one noticed at all.

"Ah Qing, don’t you know? At home, I’ve always been pampered and spoiled, now that I finally got pregnant, I have to be careful. It’s for both the baby and myself."

Mentioning family hit Ye Qing where it hurt; the only person who truly cared for her is still in the reform-through-labor camp.

"Yes, when a woman is pregnant, she must be cautious, especially in the first few months, for fear of losing the baby. It’s best to be careful," Liang Qian echoed her goddaughter, making Ye Qing’s face look awkward.

Xie Lingzhi couldn’t just stand by when her daughter-in-law was being bullied by the two people she disliked the most.

"It’s the second child already, not as delicate as the first. I see Xiao Wan has gained quite a bit of weight since last time, seems her appetite is good. A woman with a good appetite is usually healthy, and so would the child. Keeping such a secret from the family indeed wasn’t right. Luckily, we know now, otherwise, would we have to wait until the baby was born to be informed?"

What Xie Lingzhi said made the two elders of the Mei family recall the time when Mei Langchi and Ye Qing had Hua Hua.

They didn’t meet Hua Hua until the child was over a year old. Indeed, quite irresponsible.

"Alright, alright, enough said. Since we’re spending the New Year here, let Aunt Wu pay attention to the meals. Whatever Xiao Wan wants to eat, just tell Aunt Wu. Take good care of the baby." Mr. Mei didn’t say much, but Lin Wan could understand.

Mr. Mei seemed to want her to give birth here.

"By the way, I heard your father came too." Mr. Mei started eating, then looked at Lin Wan.

"Yes, but after seeing Ai Yi, my dad went back to the troops." Lin Wan replied while eating the dish Han Yi served her.

Mr. Mei nodded and said to Mei Shuping, "Since the in-law is here, you, as the elder, should meet him. Don’t let him search for us and lose courtesy."

"Got it, Dad. I’ll prepare something tomorrow, and then invite the family over."

"Hmm, Shuqing, you should also come by tomorrow. You’re comrades with Xiao Wan’s dad; you’d have plenty to talk about."

Mei Shuqing nodded, agreeing with a hum.

"Old man, if you’re inviting guests tomorrow, how could you leave me out when Big Bro and Second Bro will be there? Wouldn’t you want to introduce your illegitimate son to your old friends?"

Chen Haichang spoke without expression and didn’t look at Mr. Mei when talking, clearly displeased.
