Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 958 - 780: Sorry

Chen Haichang is thinking about investing in Lin Wan’s family restaurant, but he doesn’t want to invest in a hot pot place. He wants to use Lin Wan and her mom’s cooking skills to open a Chinese restaurant.

This is a good way to make money, it can be well planned. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"It’s time to return it. Ye Qing owes me enough already. Uncle, what do you think about our plan?"

Lin Wan was whispering her plan into Chen Haichang’s ear, while Xiao Wang’s car had already stopped at Lin Wan’s front door.

This time, Mei Shuping followed along. Upon seeing Lin Wan at the door, with Chen Haichang following her, his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

"You two are really gutsy, doing such disgraceful things. Hurry up and come back to the compound."

Mei Shuping’s words were vague, leaving the two a bit confused.

Lin Wan thought it was about her bad-mouthing Ye Qing, such a small matter, yet it even alarmed Mei Shuping. Ye Qing’s status in the Mei Family is really something now.

"Why did father-in-law suddenly come to my house and get so angry? I’m a pregnant woman, my husband isn’t home, I can’t handle being scared like this by my father-in-law."

"You can’t handle me shouting once? What about when you were fooling around at night, did you think about your health? I think you’re doing just fine." Mei Shuping glanced at Chen Haichang beside them.

Now the two understood everything, no need to think to know what Ye Qing had said when she went back.

"You are already a grandfather, you should be careful with your words in front of the younger generation. Did you see? Your granddaughter is right here. Saying such things about her mother, be careful she doesn’t hold a grudge against you." Lin Wan stared coldly at Mei Shuping, feeling very disappointed. She didn’t have much hope for this father-in-law to begin with. "I don’t want to say something so harsh, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being shameless. Do you think you are worthy of Han Yi?"

"Oh, come on, who was it whispering nonsense in your ear, saying things so ugly. And you actually believe it." Chen Haichang shook his head, saying something maddening. "But it’s understandable, the Mei Family has always had skewed views. I’m going back to see who has such a vile mouth, speaking such nonsense."

Saying this, Chen Haichang walked toward his own door and then turned to Lin Wan, "My dear niece-in-law, seeing your father-in-law looks like he wants to eat someone, I advise you not to get in his car. I reckon you weren’t ’fiddled’ to death by me, but you might be infuriated to death by your father-in-law."

Lin Wan rolled her eyes secretly, Chen Haichang really dares to say anything. "Uncle, I have a car."

As Lin Wan spoke, she locked the door without even glancing at Mei Shuping, and took Little Star into her car.

Mei Shuping snorted and got into the car to go back. When Xie Lingzhi called him, he didn’t believe it, but now seeing the two walk out from the yard, he was so angry he almost gave each of them a slap.

....

"Mom, why is grandpa so angry, it’s scary." Usually, Mei Shuping is quite nice to Little Star, better than to Hua Hua. Seeing him angry today really scared Little Star.

She didn’t understand why people here changed so quickly.

"Your grandpa misunderstood, Xingxing don’t be afraid, mom is here. If you’re scared, when we get there, go play upstairs by yourself. Watching adults quarrel is not fun."

"Oh, can I play with other kids in the yard? Hua Hua said there are many kids in the yard."

"It’s too cold outside, are there any kids out in the yard?"

"Yes."

"Well, don’t run out of the compound, okay?"

Lin Wan and Chen Haichang arrived at the compound one after another.

Unexpectedly, the family had gathered together, Mr. Mei, godfather, and godmother were all here.

Even Han Yi came back.

"Ai Yi, did they call you back?" Lin Wan’s first words upon seeing Han Yi were not an explanation. She thought things like this didn’t need explaining to Han Yi, it was all just rumors.

"Yes, are you cold?" Han Yi didn’t question her either. When he got the call, his main concern was whether Lin Wan was in trouble. He had to come back.

He didn’t trust Chen Haichang, he trusted his wife, and besides, only the Mei Family would believe such ridiculous things.

The Mei Family saw Han Yi did not blame Lin Wan. Instead, he pulled her to sit on the sofa, holding Little Star, rubbing the child’s cold hands, ignoring everyone else.

"Dad, Xingxing is not cold. I’m going to play now," Little Star said as he wiggled out of Han Yi’s arms.

"Okay, go ahead," Han Yi knew that what was about to happen was not suitable for a child to witness.

"Hai Chang, tell me, you and Lin Wan, are you two...?" Mr. Mei sat at the head seat, supporting himself with his cane, his face slightly darkened.

"What are you talking about? What about the two of us? I really don’t understand what you are all doing. Someone explain it to me! Third niece-in-law? Can you tell me what exactly is going on?" Chen Haichang crossed his arms and lounged back on the sofa, unconcerned about their serious expressions. He squinted and deliberately asked Ye Qing, who was sitting on the side.

"Third Uncle, I... Achoo! Achoo!" Ye Qing couldn’t get a word in before sneezing multiple times.

Unable to speak completely, Xie Lingzhi glanced at her useless daughter-in-law, then turned to Chen Haichang and said, "Ah Qing said she saw you in Lin Wan’s house this morning, and you were not properly dressed."

"Oh... Third niece-in-law truly has sharp eyes. Tell me how I was not properly dressed? Was I completely naked or how was I not properly dressed? Please describe clearly to the family, third niece-in-law?"

"That’s enough, Chen Haichang, stop being stubborn. Look at what you’ve done. Lin Wan is your niece-in-law, and she’s pregnant, yet you still dared to make a move on her. And Lin Wan, Xiao Yi has only been gone for a few days, and as a woman with a big belly, you couldn’t withstand loneliness and got involved with your own uncle-in-law. You both bring disgrace to our Mei family." Old Mrs. Mei spoke without hesitation.

"Mom, based merely on Ye Qing’s words, you accuse my Lin Wan of being improper. This is so unfair. I think this is all fabricated. Yet, you’ve made such a fuss about it," Liang Qian couldn’t believe her goddaughter would do such a thing. Moreover, she didn’t think Chen Haichang was that kind of person.

"Shuping just saw it, how could it be fabricated?" Old Mrs. Mei snorted.

"Old Mrs., you’re speaking so firmly, was it caught in the act?" Chen Haichang looked at Mr. Mei and Old Mrs. Mei’s faces, which looked like they wanted to eat him, amusedly. Then he turned to glance at Han Yi, "Ai Yi, do you also think I’m after your wife?"

Han Yi frowned slightly, giving him a sidelong glance, and said, "My wife isn’t interested in you."

"You got it wrong. All those beautiful women usually fall all over me, and I don’t even spare them a look, let alone your pregnant wife with a face full of spots. I merely went to your house early in the morning to grab a meal. Didn’t the old man buy a house next to yours because he felt sorry for his single old son with nobody to care for him and thought your wife’s cooking was delicious, hoping you two would take care of your uncle? Does having a meal lead to such a big deal? Listen, even the man doesn’t believe there’s anything, yet you’re in a bigger rush than eunuchs, just waiting for something to happen.

"What’s there to say, can’t you straighten it out right now? You, too, went to Lin Wan’s house early in the morning while Xiao Yi wasn’t home, it’s easy to cause misunderstandings." Mr. Mei appropriately inserted a light comment.

"I think someone is just waiting for a misunderstanding and something to happen, aren’t they?" While speaking, Chen Haichang didn’t look at anyone but those who understood knew whom he meant.

"Speaking of affairs, I have to ask, what was the real purpose behind the bird’s nest porridge grandma asked Ah Qing to bring to me today," Lin Wan asked coldly.

These words made Ye Qing’s body tremble.

"Lin Wan, I was genuinely concerned about you and your unborn child and asked Ah Qing to bring you some bird’s nest. Are you blaming me for meddling?"

"Meddling? How about a hidden agenda, putting saffron inside, is that out of concern?"

"Xiao Wan?"

"What? Saffron?"

Upon Lin Wan’s words, the most worried were Han Yi and her godparents.

"What’s going on? Who put saffron in it? Isn’t this trying to harm your unborn child?" Liang Qian hurriedly walked to Lin Wan’s side, stroked her belly, and asked worriedly.

"Godmother, it’s okay. It was Third Uncle who discovered it. He knows a thing or two about this stuff."

When Han Yi heard it was Chen Haichang who discovered it, he forgave him for saying his wife had a face full of spots earlier.

"The Mei family eagerly wants me back, yet they treat my wife like this once I’m back. Her child is the Mei family’s blood, and Old Mrs. Mei doesn’t like us so much as to be ruthless enough to harm my child?" Han Yi fiercely stared at Old Mrs. Mei, exuding a formidable chill.

However, Old Mrs. Mei wasn’t scared this time, as she had an excuse, "Xiao Wan, oh, thank goodness you found out, or it would have been a big mistake. Grandma meant well too. Your Third Uncle brought us some ginseng and bird’s nest yesterday. I thought the bird’s nest looked good, so I specifically asked Aunt Wu to stew a bowl for you and had Ah Qing deliver it. I wasn’t aware of any problem with the bird’s nest. Haichang, explain what’s going on?"

"Does it even need to be asked? It’s clearly you guys tampering. The bird’s nest ginseng I gave you were of the highest quality. Not only did I give it to you, but I also gave some to the second brother, and the eldest niece-in-law, Second Sister-in-law, did you eat any? Was there a problem?"

"The bird’s nest you gave is a treasure. My husband and I ate it last night, and this morning I delivered some to my mother’s house. My nephew’s wife is pregnant, and I haven’t heard anything from them so far."

"Did you hear that, Old Mrs. Mei? My second sister-in-law didn’t have an issue, nor did my eldest niece-in-law." Chen Haichang said, turning to call for Aunt Wu from the kitchen, "Aunt Wu, go cook another bowl of the bird’s nest I sent yesterday for Xiao Wan. Then we’ll see who’s behind this." While speaking, Chen Haichang deliberately glanced at Ye Qing.
