Han Yixian immediately rejected He Yuhan's suggestion, saying, "There's no cotton left in the warehouse. If you agree to help, you'll have to get some more cotton, but I don't want you to bring out any more. The last commotion was too big and has already attracted some attention. If we make any more moves, we'll inevitably be investigated."
Han Xiao nodded and said, "Since Yi Xian, you don't have any stock left in your warehouse, that's fine. I'll just go back to them. Let's prioritize safety."
He Yuhan sighed and said, "I have a lot of things, but I don't have an excuse to take them out. Sometimes when I see people suffering from hunger and cold, I feel indescribably sad. But for the safety of our family, I can only be careful."
If only I could find a way to produce the item without arousing suspicion or being traced.
Han Yixian said, "Don't think about it too much. We've done our best. Dad, just give them a reply."
Han Xiao said, "Okay, I'm going back. It's hard to get any kind of supplies right now, everyone can understand that."
The snow finally stopped the next day, and the weather cleared up. People were shoveling snow everywhere, and the streets and alleys were bustling with activity.
In the morning, Han Yixian and Gu Qishen were sweeping snow in the yard and in front of the door, and He Yuhan was in high spirits and wanted to build a snowman.
Seeing that his wife was in such a good mood, Han Yi naturally wanted to help. He took care of the main body of the work, and left the finishing touches to He Yuhan. He didn't want his wife to get cold.
He Yuhan decorated the snowman with briquettes, sticks, and twigs, and a large, whimsical snowman stood in the yard.
Little Xu Rui, who was being held by his grandmother, pointed at the snowman in the yard from the window, showing his great curiosity.
More than ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and He Yuhan received a call from her mother, informing her that her second sister-in-law, Liang Jingyun, was pregnant.
He Zhendong was already an older single man, and now that he finally has a child, the whole family is very happy.
He Yuhan was naturally happy for her second brother, and that very night she went into her space to pack a lot of good things to send to her parents' home the next day.
After packing their things, Han Yixian and his wife lay on the bed. He Yuhan said happily, "Now my second brother has a child too, and my parents can finally rest easy."
Han Yixian flipped over and pinned He Yuhan down, saying, "Wife, Xu Rui is already so big, shouldn't we have another child?"
He Yuhan pushed against Han Yixian's chest and said, "Xurui is not even a year old yet, he's too young. Besides, I haven't been using contraception. If I get pregnant, I'll have to, but he doesn't have one yet, does he?"
Upon hearing this, Han Yixian narrowed his eyes and said, "It seems I haven't tried hard enough. Let's work harder and try to get pregnant as soon as possible."
He Yuhan was tossed and turned like a salted fish all night. When she woke up in the morning, her back ached and she had to be massaged by Han Yi for a long time to relieve the pain.
After breakfast, everyone had left for work. He Yuhan said goodbye to her mother-in-law, picked up a basket, carried a bag, and pushed her bicycle out of the house. To carry more things, He Yuhan had also tied a basket to the back of her bicycle.
Once they reached a secluded spot, He Yuhan took out the food and fabric she had prepared beforehand. In the basket, she had ten jin of rice, twenty jin of wheat flour, ten jin of millet, five jin of pork belly, five jin of beef, several jin of apples, and several jin of persimmons. The basket also contained four bags of milk powder, two packets of brown sugar, as well as dates, pastries, biscuits, and candy. The fabric was packed in her backpack.
He Yuhan rode her bicycle to the compound, and as soon as she entered her own yard, she called out, "Mom, I'm back."
Yu Huiru heard her daughter's shouts and quickly came out. She saw that her daughter had brought over baskets and crates, indicating that she had brought quite a few things.
She took the basket from her daughter and said, "Why did you bring so much stuff again? We have everything we need, you don't need to keep adding to our household. You're married now, you can't always be thinking about your parents' home."
He Yuhan propped up the bicycle and took out several bags of grain from the back basket, saying, "So what if I'm married? I'm not your daughter anymore. Besides, I got all this myself; I didn't use any of the family's money. You don't need to worry about it."
He Yuhan brought several bags of grain and meat into the house before sitting down on the sofa to drink the hot water her mother poured for her.
Gu Huayang and He Haobo, the two little ones, had already surrounded He Yuhan.
He Yuhan put down her water glass, picked up the basket, and said, "Come on, Huayang, Haobo, your aunt has brought you candy and cookies."
He Yuhan opened the paper package and gave the two children a few cookies. The two children thanked their aunt and happily began to eat.
He Yuhan patted the two children's heads and asked, "Mom, how is my second sister-in-law?"
Yu Huiru said happily, "I'm two months pregnant and haven't had any symptoms yet. I went to work this morning."
He Yuhan laughed and said, "My second brother already knows, right? He must be overjoyed!"
Yu Huiru smiled and said, "That's right, your second brother said he'll be back tonight. Now that your second brother has a child, I can rest assured."
He Yuhan smiled and said, "Now you've fulfilled one of your wishes. Please cook more delicious food for my second sister-in-law during her pregnancy to ensure she gets enough nutrition so the baby can develop well. Don't skimp on these things; I'll bring more when she's finished."
Yu Huiru said, "No wonder you brought so much stuff. I knew I had to make sure your second sister-in-law got enough nutrition, even without you asking."
He Yuhan took out the milk powder and said, "Mom, let my second sister-in-law drink this milk powder too, it will help her get nutrition. She should drink at least one cup every day."
When it came to her grandson, Yu Huiru didn't stand on ceremony with her daughter anymore, saying, "Okay, I'll talk to your second sister-in-law later."
Your second brother got married and your Aunt Yun was already worried. If she heard your second sister-in-law is pregnant, she'll be even more anxious. Xi Cheng is about the same age as your second brother, and I've offered to introduce him to someone, but he refuses to meet anyone. I don't know how to explain this to your Aunt Yun.
I heard from your Aunt Yun that they're trying to get Xicheng transferred back home.
He Yuhan asked, "Does Brother Huo know about this?"
Yu Huiru shook her head and said, "I guess he doesn't know yet. Your Aunt Yun also told me not to tell him. She's afraid he won't go back."
Your Aunt Yun is worried about your brother Huo staying here all this time, especially since he hasn't found a partner yet, which is making the family quite anxious, after all, your brother Huo is not young anymore.
Your Aunt Yun is also looking for someone for him; she might introduce him to someone when she gets back.
He Yuhan knew something about Huo Xicheng's thoughts, and she hoped he could find his own happiness. Perhaps if Huo Xicheng returned to Beijing, he could forget her and find a good girl to live with. If he stayed here, he would inevitably have trouble letting go.
