Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 791 - 725: Discussion_3

"Of course, of course. This matter will require more effort from Brother Sen."

Mei Erqing knew that this Lin Sen wasn’t easy to persuade. Without some hard conditions, he’d never agree. But hearing this, Mei Erqing had some confidence.

When they left the Lin Family, Mr. Mei’s face remained stern. Living so many years, this past year, he’s tasted all the bitterness of humbling himself.

Recently, for Langchi’s sake, he had to speak kindly and be humbled before his old subordinates.

Today, again for Han Yi, he lost a great deal of face before his long-time friends. His old face was about to be completely disgraced.

In the end, he didn’t even have the courage to stay for a meal.

The Mei Family’s reputation built over so many years was now utterly ruined by his eldest son.

It’s a sin, truly a sin!

....

When Han Yi and Lin Wan arrived at Grandpa’s house, they found Dad and Second Uncle were both there.

It seemed Mr. Mei had already left.

"Today, that old guy Mei Erqing came begging to me, determined to have you go back. I want to hear your opinion now," Grandpa asked directly once they settled in, looking straight at Han Yi.

Han Yi replied without hesitation, "I already told them clearly yesterday, I’m not going back. I don’t care about their Mei Family."

After Han Yi finished speaking, Grandpa huffed, saying, "Foolish, you’re still too young."

Lin Wan originally thought Grandpa wouldn’t agree to Han Yi returning to the Mei Family, but hearing his tone, it seemed they were mistaken.

Not only was Lin Wan puzzled, Han Yi was also taken aback.

"Today, that old guy said, as long as you agree to return to the Mei Family, he’ll agree to any condition." He chuckled sneakily, "Such a good deal, you’d be a fool not to agree." After Grandpa spoke, he suddenly looked at her and said, "Xiao Wan, your grandmother has been missing you these days. She’s talking about you in the room now, go see her, don’t let her get sick from worrying."

"...Oh," Lin Wan knew Grandpa deliberately wanted to send her away, so she didn’t stay long in the study. Obediently, she nodded, glanced at Han Yi, and went out.

She didn’t know what they were going to talk about next, so mysteriously. It seemed to be about the situation. Whenever they encountered such matters, Grandpa always made sure unrelated people avoided it, not simply because they were women. Whether it’s outcasts or people from the group, everyone had to avoid it.

She just didn’t understand why Second Uncle could stay inside.

....

"Today, do you guess what Mei Family’s Old Lady dragged me to say?" Lin Wan hadn’t even entered Grandma’s room when she heard Grandma’s indignant voice.

"She actually dragged me to say bad things about our Xiao Wan, saying she’s grown up in the countryside and lacks manners, didn’t even greet yesterday and gestured in front of the elders. Saying that after being in the Lin Family for so long, she should be properly taught some rules so she won’t be embarrassed in the future." ’Embarrassed in the future’ refers to some upscale or powerful people hanging out together, people like her being afraid to introduce others.

"Ha... My Lin Family’s daughters are all genteel, impeccable in how they conduct themselves. We know exactly what our Xiao Wan is like."

"Mom, why get angry with her? We know ourselves, it’s enough. Xiao Wan won’t ever call her Grandma in the future, let her say whatever she wants" Second Aunt and Mom were in the room helping Grandma sort the bedsheets, persuading her.

Lin Wan came in cheerfully, ran up to Mrs. Lin, and said, "Grandma, what’s all that gesturing about? Yesterday, if she hadn’t started saying bad things about me as soon as she saw me, I wouldn’t have bothered with her. She’s not my grandma, why should she reprimand me?"

"Exactly, fight back when needed. Our Lin Family’s daughters aren’t easy to bully, look at your aunt, your cousin. Who in their husband’s family dares to provoke them? If people treat us sincerely without provoking, we’re not the arrogant spoiled girls, we’ll return sincerity a thousandfold, and be dutiful when needed. Look at your aunt and cousin, they both handle their in-law relationships well. But if encountering unjust matters, they never meekly compromise. When it’s time to be assertive, be assertive."

"Got it, Grandma, I’m not one to suffer losses. I certainly won’t be indulgent just because Old Mrs. Mei is elderly."

Of course, I wouldn’t resort to violence, after all, she’s old. Can’t move my hands, but I can surely move my mouth.
