Reborn in the Seventies: Pampered Wife, Owning some Farmland

Chapter 262: Chapter 262: Tranquility is the Truth_1
 

Zhang Cuihua felt somewhat embarrassed, she did not reply to Meng Yunhan, nor did she look at her, and just pulled her second daughter-in-law inside.

Meng Yunhan shrugged it off with a laugh, she didn’t let it bother her. Why should her mood be affected by others?

She had been through every possible experience.

In her past life, she endured so much, what hadn’t she seen through?

Life is short, why should she torment herself over unnecessary matters?

Whether she is happy or not, a day is still a day.

Life is only a few decades long, living her small life well is all that’s needed.

There’s no need for life to be tremendously exciting, sometimes, ordinary is a blessing, as a proverb says, “plain and simple is the truth”.

“Hanhan is back.” Yun Father noticed Meng Yunhan carrying Little Huzi on her back, and she also carried a basket on her back, which contained plenty of things. He also saw his eldest daughter-in-law carrying something into the kitchen.

“Father, my old man knows that you like to drink, so he asked me to bring some wine for you. Try it later and see if the taste is good. If it is, I’ll bring you some more next time.”

Excitedly, Yun Father replied, “Good, good.”

No one, be it his own children or son-in-law, knew that he also enjoyed drinking. No one ever bought him wine before.

From now on, he won’t worry about not having wine to drink.

Yun Father helped Meng Yunhan take the basket while Yun Mother came out from the kitchen.

“Hanhan is back.”

“Mother, I’ve knitted a sweater for you and Father. Try it on later and see if it fits.”

Yun Mother felt touched. For so many years, who had ever considered her clothing needs?

Knowing that she knits, yet never had anyone knit something for her.

“I also made some pastries, and prepared dry noodles for you. They don’t need to be kneaded – just throw them straight into boiling water. There are some dried fruits I fried, some candies, a box of tea leaves for Father, and smoked chicken I made.” Meng Yunhan took out each item from the basket.

Just as Yun Hai and Yun Lei arrived at the door, they overheard their conversation.

Every time she mentioned an item, their faces darkened a bit, and by the time she finished, their faces looked dreadful.

Every holiday, they would come to their parents’ house, bringing just a pound of meat before bringing their whole family to eat.

They’ve never prepared wine, clothes, or anything of the sort for their parents.

“Why did you bring so many things back? Where did you get them?”

“There’s more at home. Since I’m going off to school, we slaughtered a few chickens we had been feeding at home for the New Year. We sent two to Ahao’s place. There’s one left which I brought for you to try.”

“Father, about this wine, try to see if it tastes good. If it does, I will bring you more next time. My old man got this good wine from the winery in town.”

“Good, good. I’m grateful for your father-in-law’s thoughtfulness.”

How come Meng Yunhan hadn’t noticed Yun Hai and Yun Lei?

Whether it was deliberate or not, she wouldn’t go out of her way to draw attention to it.

She could provide all these items from her own resources. Strictly speaking, it was intentional, and besides, this departure would last for years.

“Big Brother, Second Brother….”

Yun Lei found Meng Yunhan’s bright smile a bit hard to bear.

“Ahao, he’s not coming back to celebrate New Year this year?”

When he was at home, you didn’t want to see him now that you can’t avoid it, you’re asking about him?

What were you doing before?

Meng Yunhan, playing it cool, said, “Yes, he won’t come back for the New Year. He has been delayed for a few months this year. You’re his brothers, you know that he has strong work ethics, he wants to spend more time with us in Kyoto. If he doesn’t work hard, how can he be promoted?”
