Chapter 86: Chapter 86 Acknowledging Her_1
“Come have a drink, have some water.” Father Zhao immediately poured Meng Yunhan a cup of water and then, turning to Yun Hao, said, “Your wife never comes here empty-handed. Whenever she visits, she either brings me some vegetables or buys me wine.”
Meng Yunhan kept a polite smile on her face.
If Grandpa Zhao knew that she never left empty-handed either – she either scavenged some lonely books, or some textbooks. Her high school revision textbooks were basically all scavenged from the garbage.
“Xiaomeng, how long have you been pregnant?” Father Zhao knew that he hadn’t seen Meng Yunhan for a few months. Now, seeing her with a big belly, he realized that she was pregnant and that’s why she hadn’t come to the town.
“Six months.” Meng Yunhan touched her belly, radiating a maternal glow.
“In a few more months, you two will be parents.” Father Zhao spoke words of congratulations, but his eyes held a trace of melancholy. If his son hadn’t passed away, he might be holding his own grandchildren by now.
Meng Yunhan and Yun Hao shared a glance and both gave a light smile.
“Since you’re here, stay for a meal. Keep this old man company.”
Yun Hao eagerly agreed, “Okay.”
“Then I’ll go and start cooking.” Meng Yunhan suggested this, knowing that among the three of them, she was the only woman, so she was expected to do the cooking.
“Hanhan, I’ll cook.” Yun Hao immediately rose to prepare the meal. He wasn’t sure if his wife had cooked today, but how could he let his pregnant wife cook?
Meng Yunhan turned him down, “Stay and chat with Grandpa, I’ll cook.”
She was only six months pregnant, not yet at the stage where she couldn’t do housework.
Father Zhao looked at Meng Yunhan and Yun Hao with a beaming smile.
“Then I’ll help you.”
“I’m fine. You stay here and chat with Grandpa. I’m just making a few dishes. I’m only six months pregnant.” This man was treating her as a porcelain doll. In this age, women like her, who were almost ready to give birth, were still busy doing housework. Some were even still working.
“Alright, then!” Yun Hao finally gave in.
“Girl, the kitchen has rice and vegetables.” Father Zhao hadn’t had young people to chat with for a long time, so he was ready to have a good chat with Yun Hao.
“Okay.” Meng Yunhan rose and headed for the kitchen.
“Ahao, you’ve got a good wife.” Father Zhao expressed his admiration.
Yun Hao proudly responded, “Yes, she’s wonderful.”
Father Zhao knew Yun Hao was somewhat cold and rarely smiled, but now there was a smile at the corner of his mouth.
“Xiaomeng was one of the ‘educated youths’ who came to the countryside.” Father Zhao combined this with the address Meng Yunhan had given him before and recognized that there were no Mengs in Qingzhao Village, so she must have been one of the ‘educated youths’.
Yun Hao made no attempt to hide this, “Yes, she was an ‘educated youth’ who came to the countryside. I fell in love with her at first sight and decided then and there that she would be my wife.” Yun Hao concealed nothing from Father Zhao, just as he didn’t when talking about wanting to marry her in front of his family.
“She’s a good girl, handsome and well-tempered.” As he spoke, Father Zhao let out a sigh.
Because the kitchen was not far away, and because she had had some spring water, her hearing was also sharp, she heard every word. A sweet smile spread across Meng Yunhan’s face.
