Chapter 386: Never Asked About My Biological Father



Yun Mo couldn't sleep in the first place, and was a little annoyed by the noise. She turned around unhappily and asked, "What are you doing if you're not sleeping?"

"I'll be asleep soon."

Yun Mo turned over, closed her eyes and continued to fall asleep.

There was a sound of footsteps behind her, and then the bed shook and vibrated slightly. Even with her eyes closed, Yun Mo could feel the man's cautiousness.

It’s just that this bed is too old. It’s not as strong and stable as a new one. It will shake even if you move it lightly.

"Wife, are you asleep?"

After a while, a man's voice came from behind.

Yun Mo closed her eyes and didn't move, "What?"

"Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow."

Yun Mo turned over and faced the man, "What's going on?"

Ling Chuan took out two big red envelopes from under the pillow, "Should I give this to Mom directly or find a suitable time?"

Yun Mo looked at the red envelopes and was a little confused. Does a son-in-law have to give his mother-in-law a red envelope when he returns home for the first time? Yun Mo opened the red envelopes and saw that each one contained 100 yuan, so two red envelopes were 200 yuan.

"Why did you wrap two red envelopes?"

"The other one is Dad's."

Yun Mo was slightly stunned.

Even though she had known Huang Zhiqiu for so long, she had never asked about his biological father. One reason was that there was no suitable time, and the other was that she was worried about bringing up Huang Zhiqiu's sad past.

Even now, getting pregnant before marriage is a "scandal" that is widely criticized and despised, let alone the era when she was born.

She couldn't imagine how determined Huang Zhiqiu was and how much ridicule and abuse he endured before he gave birth to her daughter without hesitation.

Although she is not the original owner, the life in her current body was given by Huang Zhiqiu. As long as she lives in this body for one day, she will respect and love Huang Zhiqiu as her own mother.

Yun Mo returned the red envelope to Ling Chuan and said, "I'll ask grandma tomorrow."

"good."

After buying the train tickets, the return gift, and the two red envelopes, Yun Mo estimated that the man should not have much money left.

"Have you run out of money?"

"And some more."

Seeing that the man didn't say anything, Yun Mo didn't bother to ask more questions. She directly took the man's coat that was placed on the bedside and took out the wallet from his pocket.

Looking at the few scattered bills in the wallet, Yun Mo took out 200 yuan from the space under the cover of the backpack and stuffed it into the man's wallet.

"Wife, you don't have to give me money..."

"This money is not for you. It's for our expenses during this time in our hometown. When you go out to buy something, be quick with your money."

Ling Chuan nodded quickly.

Yun Mo put the wallet back into his coat pocket and reminded him, "You also have to consider the occasion and timing. Take it out when you should. When you shouldn't take it out, just play dumb and don't act like a fool."

"Uh-huh."

Although Lingchuan didn't quite understand what being a sucker meant, he thought what his wife said was always right.

"Go to sleep!"

After sitting up and talking for a while, the quilt became cold. Yun Mo subconsciously wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and put her feet close to the hot water bottle to keep warm.

"Wife, are you cold?"

After a while, Ling Chuan's voice was heard in the room.

Yun Mo deliberately said, "It's not cold."

"I'm a little cold."

She pretended not to notice the man slowly moving towards her, but her heart was beating faster and faster.

Their arms were pressed together under the quilt, and through the not-so-thin layers of cloth, the man's body temperature was continuously transmitted to her.

"Wife, can I hug you?"

Yun Mo rolled into the man's arms, closed her eyes and leaned her face against his chest, "You're so annoying, go to sleep!"

"Um."

Ling Chuan hugged her back, his face showing joy and satisfaction.

Downstairs, the lights were still on in the rooms of Huang Jianjun and Huang Kailin, father and son.

Liu Zhi spoke of her sister-in-law and niece with emotion to her husband, "God is merciful. My sister-in-law has suffered for Huang Yao for half her life, and now she is rewarded. Her biological daughter is not only filial and capable, but also found such a good son-in-law. My sister-in-law has someone to rely on for the rest of her life."

Speaking of son-in-law, Huang Jianjun couldn't help but think of his eldest daughter Huang Qinghe.

Huang Qinghe married into the neighboring village three years ago. Although her eldest son-in-law Yang Jiayong is not as handsome as her niece's son-in-law, he is also good-looking, straightforward and talkative, and has a good relationship with her eldest daughter.

The couple went to work in another place in the second year after their marriage and only came back during the Chinese New Year every year.

"Did Qinghe say when she will be back this year?"

"It's said to be around the end of the year, probably around the 25th or 26th."

Speaking of his eldest daughter, Huang Jianjun couldn't help but tell his wife about his worries, "Qinghe has been married to Jiayong for several years, but they have not given birth to a child. The Yang family has been gossiping about her behind her back. Alas, Qinghe is not young anymore. When she comes back this time, you should have a good talk with her. Let men make money, and having children is her priority."

"Got it. I'll tell Qinghe."

Liu Zhi agreed, but he was worried in his heart.

In the first year of her eldest daughter's marriage, she secretly took her eldest daughter to see a Chinese doctor, who said that it would be difficult to get pregnant if one had a cold body.

In the past two years, she has secretly tried many folk remedies, and her eldest daughter has also been taking Chinese medicine, but there has been no movement in her stomach.

She comforted her eldest daughter and told her not to worry, but in fact she was more anxious than anyone else.

In Huang Kailin's house, the old couple were talking to their daughter Huang Zhiqiu about their grandson-in-law.

Yang Xinghua smiled with relief, "I think Xiao Ling is a good kid, tall and big, and looks like a steady and reliable person. In the afternoon, I brought him some sweet wine soup, and he passed it to Momo. You saw it just now, too, he was fetching water for washing faces and feet, and you can tell at a glance that he is caring."

Huang Zhi didn't say anything, but from his expression, he was obviously satisfied with Ling Chuan as his son-in-law.

Yang Xinghua nudged her husband and said, "Old man, what do you think?"

"I think he's OK." Huang Kailin smacked his lips and talked about something else, "Zhiqiu, how much red did you give to your son-in-law before?"

"18.8."

According to the local customs, when the new son-in-law returns to his parents' home for the first time after marriage, his father-in-law and mother-in-law have to give him a red envelope.

Those with poor conditions can get 6.6 yuan or 8.8 yuan, while those with good conditions can get 18.8 yuan, which is considered high.

Unfortunately, the gift I brought back to the bride's home was of too high a standard, and a red envelope of 18.8 yuan was definitely not something I could afford.

Huang Kailin opened the closet at the end of the bed and took out a locked wooden box from underneath it.

Huang Kailin took off the key from his belt and unlocked the wooden box. Inside were some important documents and passbooks with banknotes.

Huang Kailin took out the money from the passbook, counted out a hundred yuan and handed it to Huang Zhiqiu.

Huang Zhiqiu was not willing to answer it, "Dad, no need, I have my own..."

“Here!”

Huang Kailin stuffed the money into her hands in a tough manner, "You and the eldest brother have been running around the city these days, how much money do you have left? Give your son-in-law a bigger red envelope, don't let people think that we Huang family are rude."
