After Transmigrating Into a Book, I Married a Divorced Man (1970s)

The female protagonist transmigrated into a novel she wrote herself, playing the role of a vixenish supporting character. In the book, she caused trouble until her death on the streets, and her act...

Chapter 290

Xu Zhang smiled and said, "Your mother is always like this, always thinking of others."

"It depends on the time, and also on the person."

“You silly child,” Xu Zhang shook his head.

"Then it's settled. I'll ask Lu Feng to come over this weekend to help with the move."

Gu Changfeng looked at her and said, "Okay, you stay for dinner. It's so late, don't leave."

"Godfather, what's the situation with Brother Bai Qi now? I heard from Bai Ying that he's in a relationship?"

Xu Zhang immediately replied, "Yes, I've met that girl. She's very nice, highly educated, and well-mannered. She's from Suzhou."

"I see. Then you can rest assured from now on."

Lin Wanwan chatted with them for a while, and then Gu Bei and his wife returned.

"Why did you come here?" Gu Bei asked when he saw her.

"You're not welcome? It's no use if you're not welcome. My grandparents miss me and called me."

"How could we not welcome you?"

Gu Bei helped Li Zimu sit on the sofa.

"Did your sister-in-law go for a checkup?"

"Yes, I'm going to have a prenatal checkup."

"What did the doctor say?"

Gu Bei said with a smile, "The doctor said it's nothing serious, just pay attention to nutrition."

"As expected, people are in high spirits when they have good news. My brother is all smiles now. Being a dad really makes a difference."

During dinner, Xu Zhe said directly, "Your parents, your grandmother, and I are planning to move out. You two have been married for almost a year, and now Zimu is pregnant. If we move out, you'll have more space to move around."

Li Zimu was taken aback at first, then turned his head to look at Gu Bei, then at Lin Wanwan opposite him, his eyes flickered, but he still didn't say anything.

Xu Zhang nodded, "Zimu is pregnant and it's inconvenient for her. We'll hire another nanny to take care of you."

Li Zimu couldn't help but ask, "Mom, where will you live? Will you go back to Grandpa's old house?"

Qian Qian shook her head, "Wanwan's newly built villa has one that's already been renovated and left to air out for almost a year. We can move in this weekend."

Lin Wanwan carefully observed the expression on Li Zimu's face.

Hearing Qian Qian say that she would ask for a housekeeper, Li Zimu visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Grandpa and Grandma, why do you want to move out? Did I do something to upset you? I..."

Xu Zhe interrupted her, "No, we're just getting older, and our lifestyles are different from yours. Besides, we're just moving in; it's not like we won't come back to see you."

Lin Wanwan lowered her eyes and stopped looking at Li Zimu.

Gu Bei sighed, "Mom and Dad, Grandpa and Grandma, I'm all grown up now. It should be my responsibility to take care of you, but now you have to move out for my sake."

Xu Zhang said nonchalantly, "Why are you talking about this as a family? Your maternal grandparents are getting old, and it's quiet there. Wanwan said that Grandpa Cheng and Grandma Cheng have also moved there, as have Wanwan's parents and maternal grandparents. They will all move there eventually, so what's there to worry about?"

"As long as you two live a good life, that's the greatest filial piety you can show."

Lin Wanwan looked at Xu Zhang with a smile, "Then I'll come and help out on the weekend."

Qian Qian picked up a piece of fish for her. "Okay, here you go."

"Then I'll take you to see the house tomorrow. If there's anything you don't like, I'll change it. We also need to go with godmother to complete the transfer of ownership and change the name on the property certificate to godmother's."

Xu Zhang shook his head, "No, we'll stay in the house, as long as the name is still on your deed."

"That won't do. It was originally a gift from me to you. What would it mean if you put my name on it?"

Xu Zhe looked completely unperturbed. "If you don't want to, I'll have Wanwan write my name."

"Dad~~~" Xu Zhang called out helplessly.

"What are you doing? This is your own daughter, not a stranger."

“That’s right, let’s put Grandpa’s name on it then. We’ll go transfer the property first thing tomorrow morning, Grandpa.”

"Okay, come early tomorrow and pick me up for dim sum."

Lin Wanwan immediately nodded, "Okay, okay, let's all go."

"Your brother and godmother aren't going. They're both stubborn. Just ignore them."

"Grandpa, why are you talking about me again? I didn't say a word."

"Then you deserve to be scolded even more."

Lin Wanwan was about to leave after dinner.

"I'll take Wanwan home, and we can take a stroll around while we're there."

Gu Bei also stood up, "I'll go with you."

"No need, you keep Mom and Dad company and chat. I'll walk her downstairs and come right back."

Lin Wanwan gave him a look, and Gu Bei immediately understood, nodded, and agreed.

"Then don't linger too long, or you won't be able to see anything when it gets dark."

Li Zimu nodded and followed Lin Wanwan toward the door.

"Godfather and Godmother, Grandpa and Grandma, I'm leaving now. I'll come pick you up first thing tomorrow morning."

Neither of them spoke as they went downstairs.

Once downstairs, Lin Wanwan turned to look at her and said, "You can go back now, I'm leaving."

Seeing that she was really turning to leave, Li Zimu immediately called out to her, "Wanwan, I have something to tell you."

"There's a bench over there, let's go there."

Li Zimu nodded and sat down with her on a bench in the community.

She didn't speak, and Lin Wanwan didn't urge her.

“Wanwan,” Li Zimu turned his head to look at her.

"Do my parents and grandparents have a problem with me? Why are they suddenly saying they want to move out?"

Lin Wanwan looked at her speechlessly, "Aren't you overthinking it? They made room for you two, is that a problem with you? Did they ever scold you? Or were they not good enough to you?"

"No, that's not what I meant."

"Li Zimu, can you stop overthinking this? As a junior, I'm just showing them respect. The house was arranged a long time ago, just like the house was built. It's just that it's being moved up now because they're afraid you'll suspect something, or that having too many people in the house will make you noisy and unhappy. That's why they're moving out to give you two some space. Is this what you call having a problem with you?"

As she talked, Lin Wanwan felt her temper getting hotter. If it weren't for the fact that the girl was pregnant, Lin Wanwan would definitely have given her a good scolding to wake her up.

"Wanwan, that's not what I meant~"

Li Zimu's eyes were red, and his voice was trembling slightly.

People who didn't know the situation might have thought that Lin Wanwan had bullied her.

"What exactly are you trying to say? And what's been bothering you since you got married?"

Li Zimu lowered his head, fidgeting with his fingers, biting his lip tightly and remaining silent.

Lin Wanwan kept looking at her with her head turned to the side.

"I'll be going now if there's nothing else."

If it weren't for the fact that she was Gu Bei's wife, Lin Wanwan would have already started cursing.

"Wanwan~~"

Li Zimu called out to her.

"I...I don't know. Seeing so many people care about you makes my heart ache. Even Brother Bei cares about you so much, I..."

"Li Zimu, put your hand on your heart and tell me, are they really good to you? Your parents tormented you so much because of their preference for boys over girls, and you almost couldn't marry my brother. You still can't let go of this family bond. They've been so good to you, and you still say they're biased. Who's really biased here?"

Li Zimu's tears fell down.
