Chapter 991: Leaving the Daughter's Rations
After seeing their father off for the last time, Huo Yan and Jiaojiao prepared to return to the city.
Jiaojiao had endless things to say along the way, talking about everyone in the Jian family, her own family affairs, and her husband's affairs, which prevented Huo Yan from falling asleep.
Jian Chengyou had been having trouble with his stepmother in recent years and eventually remarried. On the surface, the family seemed to be quite harmonious.
Huo Yan and Kou Xiaoquan booked a flight at 4 p.m. On the way back to the city, Jian Meiyu called and said that she, Xu Yang, and the children had arrived home and had come just for her to have a reunion dinner at noon.
Huo Yan was a little surprised that Jian Meiyu had become more relaxed in recent years. At first, Jian Meiyu wished she would die, but now they were so close.
After hanging up the phone, Jiaojiao started to dig about her elder sister-in-law's family again, and Huo Yan just listened to it as if it were news.
Xu Yang and Jian Meiyu have been breaking up and getting back together over the years, but they still maintain a husband-and-wife relationship. After all, breaking up with a child is much more troublesome than breaking up without a child.
However, Jian Meiyu has been much more low-key in recent years. In the past two years, she has been working in Jiaojiao's beauty salon.
Jiaojiao said that Jian Meiyu's son is very smart. He just finished the first grade here and will be promoted to the second grade next semester. His grades are very good.
Jian Meiyu's heart is entirely focused on her son. She has a new hope and focus in life, and she is not so concerned about her husband and other things.
Over the past year or so, the couple has quarreled less frequently. Their feelings have grown weaker, but their sense of family has become stronger. Overall, their life is good.
Although Huo Yan didn't respond along the way, he felt comforted when he heard that his family was doing well. At least he wouldn't feel so worried when he thought of them occasionally.
Everyone has his or her own life. Try to make your life better so as not to worry others.
Although the Jian family is a little selfish, they are all very reasonable. Compared with the Zhuang family, Huo Yan feels that his father's family is much more humane.
Whether it is a daughter-in-law who marries into the family or the daughter of the Jane family, they are all easy to talk to.
After so many years, both sides have let go of the fact that Jian Meiyu had wrongly accused Huo Yan and Xu Yang.
It was only when Huo Yan returned to Qingjiang this time that she found out that her small house in Kyoto was decorated by Jian Yaomin.
Jian Yaomin instructed Jian Chengyou to supervise the construction of Xu Yang's design. Although the house was small, it was completed in less than two months.
This was what Jiaojiao told her. In fact, Huo Yan also guessed that it was Jian Yaomin who installed it. After all, only Jian Yaomin had the key.
When Huo Yan was about to go to Jian's house, he immediately called Zhuang Zhoucheng. He returned to the hotel from his uncle's house very late last night. He didn't call Zhuang Zhoucheng for fear of disturbing his rest, so he only sent a message.
This morning, Jiaojiao and I rushed to the funeral home, and after the funeral, we rushed to the city.
After getting off the car, he held the phone in his hand and dialed Zhuang Zhoucheng's number.
The call was connected, but the other party hung up after two rings. Huo Yan looked up at the sky speechlessly. Well, Zhuang Zhoucheng must be angry again.
Zhuang Zhoucheng once told her seriously that he must call her every two hours when he goes out. Texting is useless. He will feel uneasy if he doesn't hear her voice.
Huo Yan compromised and agreed at the time, thinking that it was not a big deal and he could do it. But when the time came, it was not that it was difficult, but that he could not remember it.
She hasn't had any rest since she landed in the past two days, so why would she call me just two hours later?
Isn't she on vacation?
I made the call again and had already thought of what to say.
But the other party still hung up. Huo Yan was a little angry. She was also hot standing under the sun, so she sent a message: Qiqi's dad, answer the phone!
Send successfully, redial again.
But I heard the phone ringing behind me. When I cut off the ring, a man's deep voice rang out:
"It's so hot outside, how long are you going to stand there?"
Huo Yan suddenly turned around, opened her mouth slightly, and looked at the tall, tough man with a flushed face. After a pause, she asked:
"Why are you here? Where's the baby?"
"You always think about your children, and it doesn't matter what happens to your husband, right?" Zhuang Zhoucheng asked with a serious face.
Huo Yan turned his words around in his mind before speaking out loud:
"But you're already in front of me."
Zhuang Zhoucheng raised his hand and pinched his wife's silly face. Her reaction was getting slower and slower.
Huo Yan raised his hand and patted the back of Zhuang Zhoucheng's hand, glaring at him.
"Don't touch my face."
Zhuang Zhoucheng ignored her and brushed her hair, the back of his neck was covered in sweat.
"Come inside. It's so hot outside. Don't faint from the heat."
Zhuang Zhoucheng pulled Huo Yan into the house. After the car stopped, he waited at the door, but this silly girl just stood outside and kept calling him.
Since she called him as soon as she arrived, no matter how angry he was, it disappeared in an instant.
Jiaojiao came into the house long ago and said as soon as she entered:
"My sister is on the phone outside. It's too hot. I came back first."
Jian Chengcai quickly poured water for his wife and moved a fan to blow towards her. There was central air conditioning in the room, but Jian Chengcai felt it was not enough.
"How's it going? Has my sister's father been buried?" Jian Chengcai asked his wife.
Jiaojiao told the story first and said what she saw.
Originally, Huo Yan's uncle's family was responsible for the burial. They started to talk about how her sister's uncle's family did things and how they cheated her sister of her money.
She said that all the money for the burial was paid by her sister. Jiaojiao was not a member of the Huo family, so of course she said whatever she saw. Huo Yan had not come back yet, so her words were full of personal emotions.
Zhuang Zhoucheng and Huo Yan stood at the door for a while. Zhuang Zhoucheng pushed Huo Yan against the wall, supported himself with his long arms, and controlled him between the thick breastwork.
"Why didn't you tell me you were going out, huh?"
"An unexpected situation has occurred, Mr. Zhuang."
Huo Yan secretly stuck out his tongue and kept looking into the living room, hoping that no one would come out, it would be so embarrassing.
"Have you forgotten that you are a mother now? What will my daughter eat when you are gone, huh?"
Zhuang Zhoucheng questioned in a low voice, his cold gaze shifting from Huo Yanbai's flushed face to her round chest. His other hand gently rested on her waist, then slowly moved upwards, pressing it down.
"Zhuang Zhoucheng——"
Huo Yan frowned and glared at him, "Please don't act like a hooligan regardless of time, place or occasion, okay?"
Zhuang Zhoucheng looked at Huo Yan with a half-smile, kissed her on the cheek, and whispered:
"Next time you go out, leave my daughter's rations behind, ok?"
It’s not that he doesn’t allow it, but she is still breastfeeding. Once she leaves, what will her daughter Xiao Shiqi eat?
"……Leave?"
Huo Yan's mouth twitched twice. How can I stay?
As soon as Zhuang Zhoucheng saw her reaction, he knew that this little beast was overthinking it. He pinched her face and whispered:
"Squeeze it out and store it in the refrigerator. What do you think it is?"
"Ha...that's what I thought."
Huo Yan stuck out her tongue, forgiving her for the discordant image that immediately appeared in her mind.
