In the afternoon, Lin Wan was at ho alone, while Liang Hongi went to the store.
Lin Wan had nothing to do at ho, so she took the cradle to the study and began drawing a few pictures.
...
Zhang Dandan walked around her new yard, and the gloomy mood from being pressured by the mother and daughter duo gradually faded.
"Not letting stay there? No big deal, it’s just a broken house. Once I get Lin Yinghui in my hands, that house will be mine. Then, I can let whoever I want live there, and that old hag won’t even dream about it."
...
In the evening, Lin Yinghui learned that Zhang Dandan had moved out, and he also felt relieved.
Having a ghost haunting around all day is really uncomfortable.
Another thing worth celebrating today is that Mu Qing wrote him a letter. She said her job on that side is already arranged. She’s doing clerical translations in the military, related to communications.
She’s just started reporting and will undergo three months of training. So, they won’t be in contact until three months later.
Mu Qing asked him to wait for her. Seeing this, Lin Yinghui chuckled.
She knows Lin Wan is about to give birth in a few months, but doesn’t know if it’s a boy or girl. She didn’t dare to buy clothes, but thoughtfully sent two cans of milk powder to Xiao Wan.
Lin Wan was delighted, as the milk powder Han Yi brought last ti was almost finished by the baby.
This milk powder isn’t cheap; a can probably costs thirty to forty bucks. Sister Mu Qing’s goodwill is appreciated.
When they et again, she must thank her properly.
Mom said, Zhang Dandan is living quite well alone over there. She cos to work every afternoon and wasn’t dared to let her go back after eight p.m., making her leave at seven instead.
She earns a dollar a day, gets dinner in the evening, doesn’t have to pay rent until the end of the year, and even got a bicycle for free.
With that, Lin Wan thought she had settled down.
To her surprise, these past two evenings after work, she was carrying the latest fruits to the house.
Claiming she’s visiting Little Star, saying how she misses the little girl after not seeing her for a few days.
Lin Yinghui gets off work early, at five o’clock, and sotis visits the winery. He actually wanted to visit the store.
It’s just that with Zhang Dandan there now, he also gave up the idea.
When he cos ho early, Lin Yinghui always likes to visit his little sister and play with his little niece.
To his surprise, Zhang Dandan is up to her tricks again. Actually using Little Star as an excuse.
The siblings are also quite annoyed.
When she lived here before, she didn’t seem that fond of children. Now she uses Little Star to make an issue. If it’s really for Little Star, why not buy so food for the kid?
Just an excuse to see my brother.
Lin Wan finally understood when she saw Zhang Dandan giving her brother sultry glances right in front of her, occasionally moving closer to him.
Luckily, brother reacted quickly and got up, leaving the house.
Fortunately, Hu Lijuan is on sumr vacation, staying at Lin Wan’s place these days to watch her little niece.
Suddenly, there was an unfamiliar girl, almost her age, who turned out to be a college student.
Zhang Dandan instantly felt discouraged, always feeling inferior in front of Hu Lijuan.
This feeling made Zhang Dandan uncomfortable, so she herself was also unwilling to co.
Lin Wan didn’t expect that, just because of Hu Lijuan, Zhang Dandan gave up on coming over every day.
Sigh. If it weren’t for the child just being one month old, Lin Wan would have gone to Han Yi’s side by now.
"Saozi, I have a two-month vacation, nothing to do at ho. Why don’t I go to the store to help you work and keep an eye on her?"
"No need. She’s just a little girl, aside from so improper thoughts, everything else is okay. No need to waste your ti on her... Didn’t you sell several sweaters last winter? If you’re really bored, go find Yu Qianqian. You can knit quite a bit over the sumr."
Lin Wan’s words brightened up Hu Lijuan, making her realize she had forgotten about it. "Hmm, I’ll go in a couple of days."
Actually, since the beginning of the year, Lin Wan ordered a batch of yarn from Yu Qianqian, took it to the orphanage for Ye Zi and a few others.
She asked them to knit cardigans in five styles.
In a few months, they’ll be ready to sell.
...
In mid-July, Lin Wan called Han Yi to talk about the situation.
"It’s okay, our household registration is done, it’s with . Yours follows mine, don’t worry, everything is settled."
Lin Wan finally felt relieved upon hearing this, as the baby’s household registration had been pending, keeping her anxious all this ti.
This wasn’t a sudden thought from Lin Wan, but a few days ago, Han Yi received a call from i Shuping. Sohow, he knew Lin Wan had given birth and clearly wanted to transfer Xingxing’s registration over.
Han Yi imdiately sneered, rebuking i Shuping. His illegitimate son isn’t even known by the i family, yet he’s ddling with his daughter’s affairs. Wanting Xingxing under his na, he dares to think so. Han Yi just didn’t understand what i Shuping wanted by moving his daughter there, is he planning to make her soone’s granddaughter in the i Family?
He’s sure i Shuping won’t tell the i family about this son. He’s not planning to yet. Can’t even tell his family but still thinking about taking his daughter.
i Shuping really can imagine things.
When he got married, i Shuping looked down on Xiao Wan, thinking he could brush her off casually with money, and in the end, didn’t even show any gesture. He didn’t even visit once when the child was born. After a direct phone call asking for the child, dreaming would be better.
With the household registration sorted out, Han Yi and Lin Wan were relieved too.
"Is Xingxing being good?"
"Very good, just knows to eat and sleep, sleep and eat now. You don’t have to worry. In a few days, I’ll bring the child to see you."
"You bring the child, don’t go back and forth. I’ll co back to see you guys as soon as I get a break. It won’t be many days." Han Yi chuckled helplessly over there. Though he missed them, he didn’t want them to rush around in such hot weather.
The child is still young, and if anything bad happens, he’ll be the one feeling heartbroken.
"That’s good then, Xingxing and I will be waiting for you at ho."
Lin Wan hung up the phone and smiled happily at Little Star. "Xingxing, isn’t Daddy aweso? Let’s stay at ho and wait for Daddy to co back, okay?"
The little girl in the swaddle responded with a couple of giggles.
Over here, Liang Hongi ca over to ask about Little Star’s registration. Lin Wan had told them about it, and at that ti, she cursed that i Shuping in the courtyard. Because her voice was loud, it happened that Shen Qing heard it, and after finding out the reason, Shen Qing was so angry that she almost ran to the Capital City to confront i Shuping, but Uncle Hu persuaded her.
But during this ti, i Shuping had not been spared from curses, and Lin Wan wondered if he was sneezing non-stop these days.
"Mom, Ai Yi just called. The registration is done."
"That’s good, that’s good," Liang Hongi was delighted, worried i Shuping might use connections and cause trouble.
Actually, i Shuping was also temporarily excited upon learning Han Yi had a daughter. He thought the child should be part of the i lineage, should be with the i family, and privately, he was thrilled for two days, even naming his granddaughter.
Of course, it’s uncertain if his son would appreciate it. He initially thought of placing the child in the i family, claiming she’s soone’s granddaughter, but later reconsidered thinking it was improper. A real granddaughter versus a dry granddaughter are two different things.
Even if placed in the family, his parents wouldn’t know, and his wife wouldn’t dare to be told. In the end, no one would really care for the granddaughter.
He knows sowhat of his parents’ characters; they usually don’t bother about non-blood relatives.
Finally, thinking it over, he gave up on it, since Han Yi didn’t agree either.
i Shuping got excited and made this call. Initially, this son didn’t care for him, and now after this ss, probably resents him even more.
Liang Hongi cheered up the little granddaughter for a while and was about to go buy a waterlon outside. As soon as she opened the front door, she heard arguing next door.
"What happened?" Lin Wan also heard it while in the house, adjusting her sleeping daughter’s blanket before coming out to ask her mother.
Liang Hongi frowned, worried that the loud noise might scare the child.
"Who knows. But I know this family; it’s the woman who hit you in winter. Not a decent person," Liang Hongi lived here long enough to know the neighbors.
After that winter incident, she paid extra attention to that woman.
"...." Lin Wan was surprised for a mont, looking at Liang Hongi.
The mother and daughter listened clearly in the yard; it seed to be the sound of her husband hitting her.
Liang Hongi whispered to her daughter, "That woman is restless. Her husband works at the coal plant, tired from working hard all day. He’s capable, considering there are two elders and three little girls at ho, leaving him with no choice."
