"Stop for a moment!"

Liu Yanran waved her slender hand, "Wu Yanping may no longer be our enemy."

"What do you mean?" Liu Yang didn't quite understand.

You've probably heard the saying, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend," right?

Liu Yanran said with a half-smile, "Have you noticed that although Wu Yanping and Wang Qian are very close, Wu Yanping's understanding of Wang Qian seems to be the same as mine, stuck in our college days?"

"Sister, I... still don't quite understand. Why don't you explain it more clearly?" Liu Yang said awkwardly.

"What's wrong with your brain?!"

Liu Yanran rolled her eyes.

But in order to make Liu Yang understand the core of her words, she patiently explained, "What I mean is that not only me, but I'm afraid even Wu Yanping, who is strongly supported by Wang Qian, doesn't know that Wang Qian is already married and even has a son!"

"Ah, sis, I think I understand your scheme now!"

Liu Yang's face lit up with joy. "Besides attacking Wang Qian yourself, you're also planning to drag Wu Yanping into it, right?"

"What do you mean by conspiracy? Do you even know how to use words?"

Liu Yanran gave Liu Yang a flick on the forehead. "I call this making good use of capable people and prescribing the right medicine for the right ailment, do you understand?"

"Yes, yes, whatever you say, sister."

"Then what are you still standing here for?"

Liu Yanran said with exasperation, "Go and stop what you're trying to do to smear Wu Yanping right now. If it gets out, my plan will be ruined."

"Okay, I'll go right away!"

Liu Yang hurriedly got up and ran outside.

But after running a few steps, he seemed to remember something and turned back to ask, "Sister, what about you?"

"I'll go to the Pearl Hotel myself right now!"

Liu Yanran said expectantly, "Wu Yanping and I have always disagreed. Back in college, we were notorious rivals in love. But this time, we have finally found a common goal."

...

Xieyang Village.

In front of Wang Qian's rural villa in Heikangou.

"Dad, Mom, have you notified all the relatives and friends in the neighborhood about our one-month celebration for Xiao Niangui?"

"Yes, everyone has been notified."

Wang Yuanguang nodded. "As for how many people will come, we don't know."

"Of course you are welcome to come, but if you don't want to, we won't force you."

Wang Qian looked down at the baby in his arms, whose eyes were wide open but who wasn't crying. He sighed from the bottom of his heart, "I want to do everything I can to give him the best and create the best environment for his growth."

"But you bought way too much stuff, didn't you?"

Lu Aihua looked pained. "When other families hold a banquet, they only buy a dozen or so catties of meat and serve three or four dishes, which is considered very respectable. You're going to serve more than a dozen dishes, and each one is full of meat and fish. If we can't finish them, it'll be such a waste if we lose weight."

Lin Xiaoyu chimed in, "Besides my family, there are people from the neighborhood and your maternal grandmother's family. All told, there are probably around two hundred people. I also think you've prepared too much food."

"Mom, Xiaoyu, it's okay!"

Wang Qian patiently explained, "It's always better to be well-prepared than to be unprepared at the last minute."

He paused for a moment, then added, "If there's a lot left, the neighbors can come and take some home to eat. Anyway, the purpose of buying these things is to share them with everyone."

Since Wang Qian had already said that, the others stopped trying to dissuade him.

Just then, the sound of a tractor came from afar.

"It must be Yang Shenglong bringing back goods from the county town. Let's hurry out and unload them."

Wang Yuanguang said something and walked out first.

They needed to buy various ingredients and many utensils to hold a full moon celebration.

But Wang Qian entrusted all of this to Yang Shenglong.

All they had to do was wait at home to help unload the goods, including everything they had bought.

"I'm going too!"

Lu Aihua quickly followed her out.

Wang Qian then handed Wang Niangui, whom he was holding, to Lin Xiaoyu, saying, "Xiaoyu, you hold little Niangui here and warm yourself by the fire. I'll go out and help."

Since moving into their new home, they have installed a fireplace with a chimney in the living room.

Even in the cold winter, as long as the stove is lit, the whole house will be warm and cozy, and there will be no smell of smoke.

Even Lin Xiaoyu, who is currently in postpartum confinement, spends most of her time sitting here, except when she is sleeping or breastfeeding her baby.

"In a few more days, I'll be able to help."

Lin Xiaoyu was somewhat impatient, and her gaze towards Wang Qian was filled with guilt.

You should know that two months ago, her requirements were actually very low.

As long as Wang Qian treats her well, cares about her, and has some of the responsibility a man should have, she would be content even if she lived a life of poverty and hardship.

But during this time, Wang Qian has been too good to her.

He runs back and forth between home and the county town every day, and he is already extremely busy, but he still makes sure to buy her all sorts of things, and he is always very gentle and considerate towards her.

Every small moment of emotion is enough to bring tears to her eyes.

Besides Wang Qian, her parents-in-law also treated her exceptionally well. They always gave her the best food first and volunteered to do the heavy and strenuous work first.

She felt incredibly happy to have married into such a family.

"It's alright. As long as you take good care of Xiao Niangui and get your health back, that's more important than anything else. I can handle everything else."

Wang Qian turned around and smiled, his smile warm and radiant.

But I want to help you!

Lin Xiaoyu's tone was somewhat somber. "I'm your wife. You've recruited so many people. If I can't help you, I don't deserve to enjoy the fruits of your hard work."

Wang Qian's breath hitched.

The guilt that had long since faded surged back into my heart like a raging torrent.

Lin Xiaoyu is the kind of person who is thoughtful, has a strong sense of responsibility, and values ​​relationships.

But in her previous life, she married such a cold and heartless person as herself, so the ending was destined to be a tragedy.

In fact, it's not just him and Lin Xiaoyu; any couple, if one is more sentimental and the other is cold-hearted, will not have a good ending.

In his previous life, he betrayed Lin Xiaoyu's tenderness and devotion.

No matter how much he tries to make up for it in this life, he never feels it's enough.

In particular, the fact that Lin Xiaoyu was exactly the same as in his previous life made him feel even more ashamed.

"Xiaoyu, please don't think like that. Everything I've done is for you, Xiaoniangui, and our family."

Wang Qian took a deep breath and continued, "I don't need you to give as much as I do to feel balanced. I just want you all to be well, that's the result I want to see the most."

Lin Xiaoyu's eyes welled up with tears.

After avoiding Wang Qian's gaze, she nodded slightly and whispered, "Yes, I understand!"

Though she said this, she felt an indescribable sweetness in her heart, as if her whole heart was melting.

The more this happened, the more she wanted to help Wang Qian after her postpartum period.

Wang Qian was so good to her, she had to reciprocate. Even if she didn't do much or do it well enough, she had to try her best, otherwise she would feel guilty.
