Chapter 20 The Man Stays (1/2)



Zhang Lan looked at their expressions and asked, "Why? Are the eldest and second sisters-in-law disappointed?"

Mrs. Hu said eloquently, "No, Third Sister-in-law, I'm not disappointed. I just think that since you're pregnant now and you're living alone at your parents' house, Zhiyu can take care of you."

"No, my mother will take care of me."

"That means one more person means more strength."

"I'm not a child. Even if I'm pregnant, I can take care of myself. Besides, the house at my parents' house is not big. There's only a single bed in it, so it can't accommodate two people."

"But." Mrs. Hu wanted to argue again, but was interrupted by Hu Li: "Don't say buts, just let the third child go live with her parents. Zhiyu still lives at home and can go there more often."

If the daughter-in-law and son both went to live with their in-laws, others would probably laugh at her son for marrying into the family.

"Mom, you don't have to pay my share of the food money home from now on."

"Yes." Hu Li agreed.

After Zhang Lan finished speaking, she went back to the house to pack her things.

Mrs. Hu still didn't give up: "Zhiyu hasn't finished get off work yet. You should discuss this with him when he comes back."

If Hu Zhiyu wanted to stick with his wife, he would have to go over there.

However, when Hu Zhiyu came back from get off work, Zhang Lan told him about the situation. He respected Zhang Lan's decision and expressed his apologies to Zhang Lan.

"Wife, it's all my fault. I'm incompetent and couldn't provide you with a stable living environment. You had to live with your parents even though you were pregnant."

Zhang Lan didn't blame him and told him: "If the first and second wives try to use the children to get money or things from you again, don't indulge them."

Hu Zhiyu knew about the conspiracy of the first and second wives, and he would no longer tolerate them.

"I won't do that anymore. I'm nice to them, but they turn around and try to harm me. I won't let them take advantage of me anymore."

"That's good."

Xu Nuannuan took advantage of the middle of the night and went to 㫅齂's place again.

Because of the previous two times, Xu Zhenqing and Fang Suyun were no longer so surprised and panicked when they saw Xu Nuannuan coming.

In fact, they knew that they didn't have much time left here and wanted to spend more time with their daughter.

Xu Nuannuan took out the insulated box of dumplings and two pairs of chopsticks and handed them to her parents, "Dad, Mom, there are dumplings, come and eat them."

"dumpling!"

Dumplings symbolize reunion. The couple will soon be separated from their daughter, and they don’t know if they will be able to eat dumplings together again in the future.

Fang Suyun picked up one and handed it to Xu Nuannuan through the window.

"Nuannuan, let's eat together as a family."

"Okay." Xu Nuannuan took a bite of the dumpling and said, "Dad, Mom, you guys should eat quickly too."

The family of three quickly finished their dumplings. Xu Zhenqing told Xu Nuannuan, "Nuannuan, they told us we'll be leaving here in three days. As for where we're going, they said it's a junction of three provinces. That place should belong to Liaoning Province, adjacent to Inner Mongolia and Hebei Province. It's called the Qingpingwan Brigade of Wagou Village and Xishe."

"Wagou Village, Qishe, Qingpingwan Brigade."

Xu Nuannuan knew this name in her previous life, and she also knew that the county located between three provinces was Ling'anfeng County.

"Nuannuan, you will be here alone in the future, so you must take good care of yourself." Fang Suyun reminded.

"Mom, I will."

After Xu Nuannuan left, she had not walked far on her way home when she turned the corner and saw a figure walking towards her. She immediately entered the space.

When the figure passed by her, she found out it was Zhao Shulin.

Looking again, the direction Zhao Shulin was going was exactly where his parents were.

Why is Zhao Shulin going there?
