Chapter 1320: Excitement

After the bus arrived, a few young men moved things twice."I must ask why you decided to push the bicycle. Otherwise, we really wouldn’t be able to move it back."

"I didn’t think about it that much either."

The rice weighed one hundred and fifty pounds. It was indeed quite a lot.

"Tao, your family member sure is capable. These things are not easy to manage."

"Isn’t that true? These cost nearly two hundred yuan."

"Wow, that’s really expensive."

Arriving at the township, everyone unloaded the bus. Tao Chunhe ran to push the bicycle, and with the help of several people, finally loaded everything.

It’s definitely beneficial to have more people; they helped Tao Chunhe push the bicycle from behind along the way. Even so, they walked for more than an hour. By the time they arrived home, it was already past four in the afternoon.

He didn’t go home but went directly to Li Yungui’s place, knowing that his sister must be there with their cousin.

When Li Yungui saw Tao Chunhe coming in, he quickly helped to lean the bicycle to the side.

"Uncle Li, half of this is what Jin Erlin prepared for Meng Lin."

The two sisters also came out. "Jin Erlin prepared so much?"

"That’s right; he also separately prepared a piece of fine cotton fabric for you, he said it was for making the child’s clothes."

After unloading half, Li Yungui followed along to the Tao Family to help unload the rest.

"Luckily, we encountered a few educated youths. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have managed to bring it back.

By the way, Uncle Li, Chaoyang called. He said that once it opens up, you’ll help sort out the five rooms of the brick-and-tile house."

"Great, I understand. Did Township Chief Xing tell you?"

"Of course? Just as I sent the bicycle to the courtyard of the township government, I was called by the gatekeeper. He said Township Chief Xing was looking for me."

"I understand."

"By the way, Chaoyang is now at the Lv Family."

"There? Not in the Capital?"

"That’s what Township Chief Xing said."

"Alright, I got it. You should come home for dinner tonight."

Li Yungui was puzzled, wondering why his son was spending New Year at the Lv Family when both Xiao Wei and Xiao Jiang were in the Capital?

The brother and sister finished dinner at the Li Family and went home.

"Xiao Zhen, Grandpa said he has agreed to Yang Jiu Long’s request but gave you two years. If you find happiness yourself in these two years, he’ll support you, otherwise, you’ll be with Yang Zhongyi."

Tao YanZhen nodded. "I understand."

She lay in bed, staring at the ceiling in the dark.

She already knew that Lv Guodong was married. They weren’t even of age; it seemed from her cousin’s perspective that the two had gotten together too early.

At that time, upon hearing the news, Tao YanZhen felt she couldn’t breathe and didn’t know how she got out from the Li Family.

Every night, she tormented herself by thinking about Lv Guodong.

Both her cousin and brother had said that Lv Guodong wasn’t suitable for her, but she was determinedly trapped in her thoughts.

Grandpa spoke of her own happiness, but how could there be any? Her happiness could only be given by Lv Guodong, but he didn’t belong to her.

Without him, anyone would be the same; Yang Zhongyi then, but he didn’t seem to fancy her either.

In his heart, he definitely had someone he liked, but considering his family situation, could he really have the choice? Truly too naive.

She unconsciously thought of Lv Guodong again, wondering if she was really like her aunt? Really just looking at people’s faces? But what’s wrong with looking at faces?

The two of them must be very happy, right? Lv Guodong’s eyes only see Li Xue; she has no fate with Lv Guodong in this life. Just hoping they can be happy.

Wang Menglin also couldn’t sleep; she was excited, her hand constantly on her abdomen, even though nothing was visible yet, she already knew a small life was inside. In a few months, they could meet.

All day she was happily dazed. She couldn’t imagine why her mother had been so cold to her at that time? Just because she was a girl? Not the boy they were expecting?

But she was still a child her mother bore for ten months, right? How could she be so ignored?

She now also had a child. She certainly wouldn’t neglect or ignore her; she would wholeheartedly care for her, helping her become a happy little child.

She wondered how Li Manjiang would react upon hearing this news?

Actually, Li Manjiang already knew the news that his wife was pregnant, and he was about to be a father.

Mr. Tao put down the phone and immediately called Li Manjiang’s leader. He also talked with Li Manjiang.

Now he couldn’t sleep either; already twenty-five, almost twenty-six, everyone else’s children were already seven or eight years old. Only now was he experiencing the joy of becoming a father.

But he currently had no leave to return and see his wife.

He pictured his wife’s appearance, imagined his child growing up, all with a smile on his face.

He was about to become a father himself, he had to perform well to strive to go back when his wife gave birth. He wanted to personally witness the birth of his child.

His parents back home must be so happy. He was the oldest of his generation, and only now did he offer his parents peace of mind, truly unfilial.

But now, he could only do well for his sake, which reassured them a bit.

Li Manjiang’s leader also knew the news, aware that his wife was giving birth, he’d need to take leave.

He agreed; Mr. Tao had held extraordinary esteem for this granddaughter-in-law. Li Manjiang had to be promoted.

The next day, many people knew the news that Li Manjiang was about to become a father.

Everyone congratulated him, which made Li Manjiang even happier.

Chen Fengying, however, didn’t feel comfortable; she originally thought Li Manjiang would wait forever for her; she believed Li Manjiang truly loved her. Never imagined she’d marry a year earlier, yet now had no child while he was about to become a father.

In her heart, Chen Fengying still liked Li Manjiang, but his position wasn’t high, and he lacked background, further development seemed impossible; she wanted to be a general’s wife.

That’s why she betrayed him and was with that man.

But only by living together did she realize this man was really terrible; in every aspect inferior to Li Manjiang.

Regret was useless now; she once fantasized that if things failed with that man, she would find Li Manjiang, but he’d gone back to marry. And now he also had a child.

Utterly unwilling, filled with regret.

Yet she couldn’t afford the regret. That man was suspicious and paranoid; she couldn’t show any difference whatsoever, or she’d face unbearable torment.

She questioned how she could have been so blind to choose such a person? She couldn’t leave even if desired; he would definitely oppose it.
