Chapter 94: Chapter 94: Good Child_1

Should she still not pass the exams in this lifetime, how did she get back to the city in her last one?

She did not feel like concerning herself with other people’s business. However, she did wonder how her sister-in-law had miscarried in her previous life.

She figured she could use the excuse of looking after Little Zhuzi to have her sister-in-law to visit more often, in hopes of avoiding the past.

Shortly after school started, upon knowing that Wang Minfang had become a teacher, Meng Yunhan was taken aback for a moment, but soon reconciled. She suspected that some price must have been paid, but what that price exactly was, was of no concern to her.

Meng Yunhan started nurturing her pregnancy.

“Little Zhuzi, is your mother still feeling nauseous lately?”

Zhang Yunxuan, the little buddy, unintelligibly responded while gobbling down the pumpkin pancake that Meng Yunhan had made for him, “No more throwing up, I love it, auntie, I want more.”

“Little Zhuzi, if you ever want more, remember to tell your mother first so she won’t worry about you being out too long. Your auntie now lives in the next village over; it’s not a far walk, just about ten minutes.”

“Ok, Auntie.”

At this age, kids usually entertain themselves, and would only return home when it was time for meals.

Meng Yunhan cooked up some extra pancakes for him and walked him over to his aunt’s house.

Most people at this time were busy with spring planting. Could this intense labor during spring planting have led to her sister-in-law’s miscarriage?

Meng Yunhan could not figure it out.

In her previous life, she had a contentious relationship with her in-laws and her sister-in-law also had a poor attitude towards her, so she didn’t pay much attention to it all.

“Auntie, auntie, may I go play for a while?”

“Little Zhuzi, That may not be a good idea. You have to behave because Auntie usually cooks for good kids.”

Upon hearing Meng Yunhan’s words, little buddy Zhang Yunxuan immediately quieted down.

“Little Zhuzi, where is your house?”

“Over there, over there.”

Meng Yunhan looked in the direction pointed by the little buddy Zhang Yunxuan and saw an adobe house.

In those days, it was rare to see a brick or tile-built house.

She noticed the front door was open. She asked little buddy Zhang Yunxuan, “Little Zhuzi, is your grandmother at home?”

“She is not, she has gone to work.”

“How about your mother?”

“She also went to work.”

She feared the child might have indeed been lost due to the spring planting.

“You stay at home then. Auntie is going to head back home.”

Little buddy Zhang Yunxuan seemed reluctant to see her leave. “Auntie….”

“Behave, your Auntie is always at home. You can come over whenever.”

Little buddy Zhang Yunxuan nodded affirmatively, “Ok, but you must make me some delicious food.”

Meng Yunhan spent all her walk back home contemplating on how to break the news of her sister-in-law’s twin pregnancy to her in-laws, so that she could rest at home without having to work.

Meng Yunhan saw her sister-in-law again after barley season, she brought Little Zhuzi with her.

“Third sister-in-law.” Yun Men greeted, brimming with enthusiasm.

Yun Men learned that her son had been visiting her home frequently during the past month. All he kept talking about was the delicious food his aunt made for him each day.

It made Yun Men feel a bit embarrassed. However, she was too consumed with the work during harvest season to return home.

“Yun Men, come in please.” Meng Yunhan, caressing little buddy Zhang Yunxuan’s head, muttered, her eyes sparkling with adoration.

“Auntie, what did you make me today?”

This left Yun Men at a loss; on one hand laughing, on another crying, how did her son become such a foodie?

“Alright, I’ll get it for you.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Meng Yunhan came out from the room carrying a plate of pine nuts, “Eat slowly.” These pine nuts were stored since the last time she went to the mountains; she ate a little every day.
