Chapter 1013 - 811: Prelude_2
Lin Wan was also embarrassed beside them, saying that big hands and big feet meant it was a boy was ridiculous. Lin Wan didn’t say anything.
Because her cousin had mentioned this during a check-up before.
However, this scene was not to Mei Langchi’s liking. In the past, Mei Langchi’s expression was always calm, and Ye Qing could never tell his emotions, but today she particularly paid attention.
So she noticed Mei Langchi’s subtle expressions. Perhaps they all underestimated, in the Mei Family, Mei Langchi was the one who hid his feelings the most.
"Ah, it’s a pity, your grandfather and I won’t be able to see our great-grandson’s birth. Our idea, when you reach a hundred days, bring the child over here, we’ll host a hundred-day banquet here."
Old Mrs. Mei’s words surprised Lin Wan. Since they arrived, Old Mrs. Mei had never shown such concern for the child as today.
Previously, she brought up giving birth here, focusing on the fact that the child was a Mei Family member but never mentioned hosting a banquet.
Old Mrs. Mei’s unusual behavior today immediately made Lin Wan vigilant.
It’s not that she was paranoid, because when Old Mrs. Mei invited her over before the New Year, there was no good intention. After so many days of inactivity, she thought it was because the household was chaotic lately, and given Mr. Mei’s injury and illness, they hadn’t been paying much attention to this matter.
Regarding the calligraphy matter, Mr. Mei initially suspected Chen Haichang and wanted to incite conflict between them and Chen Haichang, hoping their families would fall out over it.
However, this time Lin Wan was truly mistaken, Mr. Mei had had a change of heart. When they had Hua Hua before, they also considered having a large event, but there was some unpleasantness at the time.
Now with a little one, they want to truly focus on him, firstly to bring some happiness to the Mei Family, and secondly, to properly compensate Han Yi.
Lin Wan smiled awkwardly, just about to refuse, but heard Mei Langchi say
"Grandma, shouldn’t Hua Hua’s celebration also be made up for?"
"Hua Hua is so grown up now, let’s leave it be. Wait until he gets married in the future, then we’ll throw him a big event. Ah, we wonder if we’ll be able to see that day." Old Mrs. Mei laughed sentimentally, not realizing Mei Langchi’s face had darkened.
Here, still believing her idea is good, she turned her head and instructed Xie Lingzhi to ensure Hua Hua’s wedding is a grand event in the future, inviting all relatives and friends.
Xie Lingzhi also laughed in agreement.
In the living room, only these elders didn’t know the situation. If they knew Hua Hua wasn’t Mei Langchi’s, who knows what they would do.
Junzi’s car is scheduled for tomorrow, conveniently going along with the nearby troops’ vehicle. He wanted to travel with Han Yi, but Han Yi was with Lin Wan and Little Star, which would be slower, so after considering, Junzi decided to leave first.
He hasn’t seen Tao Jia for a long time, he misses her.
This New Year, he boldly brought gifts to the Tao family house, although he was eventually driven out by Xiao Jia’s father and two brothers, Mei Lang Jun was still happy to do this.
At least this time, no fights occurred, which was good.
During dinner, Old Mrs. Mei talked with her two sons about hosting the hundred-day banquet, which Mei Shuping and Mei Shuqing were of course willing to do.
Especially Mei Shuqing, now a grandfather himself, he naturally wanted to host a hundred-day banquet for his grandson.
Under the consensus of several elders in the Mei Family, the hundred-day banquet was decided upon.
Lin Wan was quite worried because of this, glancing towards Han Yi, questioning with her eyes, but he remained calm, reassuring her under the table.
After dinner, Lin Wan found an excuse to pull Han Yi upstairs.
"Do you think they might have any agenda?"
"Don’t worry, since there’s no issue now, it proves they don’t intend to use the child. This indicates that Mr. Mei cares about the child. Don’t overthink. Tomorrow morning we’ll drive back."
"Okay." Lin Wan looked up at Han Yi, responding with eyes full of worry, but still feeling uneasy inside.
Han Yi smiled and held her in his arms, softly kissing her hair to reassure her "Don’t overthink, I can’t bear seeing you unhappy."
"I’m very happy, nothing is wrong, just feel strangely uneasy, not sure why." Lin Wan nestled in Han Yi’s embrace, holding him tightly.
They spent some affectionate time upstairs before coming down.
Fortunately, Mr. Mei considered they would be leaving early tomorrow, opting not to let them drink.
Just a simple meal, chatting together, and it ended.
Han Yi and his wife didn’t plan to stay here tonight, because they needed to go back and pack for the trip tomorrow.
So they headed back with Little Star.
Junzi will leave tomorrow with the Capital City troops. For convenience, he plans to return home to pack and go directly to the troops, making departure easier early tomorrow.
Han Yi and his wife chatted with them for a bit before departing.
Mei Langchi watched Han Yi as he helped Lin Wan into the car, a glint flashed in his eyes. He turned and dialed a number, Ye Qing clearly heard the call connect, but Mei Langchi didn’t speak, only tapped the mouthpiece twice intentionally and hung up. This made Ye Qing suddenly more vigilant.
Mei Langchi hung up and mentioned to Xie Lingzhi that he was taking Ye Qing home.
"How are you feeling today?" While going out, Mei Langchi put an arm around Ye Qing, gently asking.
"Alright, I don’t feel sleepy today, my spirits are much better." Ye Qing truthfully replied, as she hadn’t taken her medication tonight.
Mei Langchi listened, suddenly lowering his head, rubbing his temple with a frown, jokingly saying "I’m feeling a bit dizzy today, seems your illness transferred to me."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qing pretended to be concerned "Are you alright? Do you need to see a doctor?"
"No need, a good rest will solve it, why don’t you take me home?"
"Okay."
Once Ye Qing realized the ploy, it was too late, as she was already in the driver’s seat.
