Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander-Chapter 1281 - 839: Explanation/Arrival_2

"Such a possibility doesn’t exist at all. With him, no matter how much we push him, he won’t marry someone he doesn’t like. Otherwise, he wouldn’t need us to plead with him every time to come home..." Lin Yanqiu said while shaking her head, "Back then, who would have thought he would end up like this? Mom, you don’t know. I worried about his marriage a lot, even cried secretly several times, fearing he would be lonely for a lifetime. Thinking about it now, it seems kind of ridiculous."

"It’s all in the past..." Old Madam Zhou comforted her daughter-in-law, patting her, "Mom understands your worries, but Mom also knows you can’t push him, so Mom never got involved."

In your heart, you didn’t get involved because your favorite choice was still Ye Meiru..., Lin Yanqiu thought to herself, but she didn’t dare say it out loud. It’s all history now, as a daughter-in-law, she shouldn’t keep bringing up her mother-in-law’s old scars.

Unexpectedly, even though she didn’t mention it, the old lady thought of it herself and continued with a smile: "But back then I was muddle-headed too. Somehow, I always thought Ye Meiru was the most suitable for Xiaomi. Alas, I wasn’t better than you."

"Yes, at that time Yueping and I were so anxious, afraid you would be right. Honestly, we’d rather Xiaomi stay single than have him marry Ye Meiru. Just her reputation would be such a loss for our Xiaomi."

"It’s been so long, why are Grandma and Mom speaking so excitedly?"

The mother- and daughter-in-law were chatting away, not noticing when Yu Tao had joined them. Her question startled them both, then Lin Yanqiu laughed and explained: "Xiaomi is back, and talking about how good he is to Chuxia steered the conversation in this direction."

"Brother-in-law is really considerate to his sister-in-law..." After a pause, Yu Tao added, "Brother-in-law is finally going through the hardship and coming out of it."

"That’s indeed true." Lin Yanqiu nodded, "This kid finally survived the tough times. Every time he came back from a mission those years, I was scared and couldn’t sleep for days. I really feared for him. He wouldn’t listen to advice. At least now, we’re past worrying days."

The mother- and daughter-in-law were chatting happily when Chuxia emerged just in time to hear Lin Yanqiu’s words. Silently, she thought, soon you’ll have more worrying days to come.

However, before it happens, the news won’t be disclosed. Zhou Mikang would tell her because she has that special foresight, otherwise, he probably wouldn’t say anything.

When Old Master Wan came back from his stroll outside, Zhou Mikang had just changed his clothes and come out. The old master’s mouth involuntarily curved into a smile: "Xiaomi is back?"

Zhou Mikang nodded: "Yes, Grandpa, where did you stroll? I was out jogging earlier, how come I didn’t see you?"

"I took a walk around the campus. Felt especially good, as I get older, I love going where young people are, feels like I’m young too..." Old Master Wan smiled looking at Old Madam Zhou, "Sister-in-law, when you’re free, you should walk around the campus too, the environment is really nice, seeing all the young people around, it’s wonderful."

Old Madam Zhou nodded: "Sure, I’ll take Chuxia to school in the mornings."

"No, no, no..." Chuxia quickly waved her hand, "Grandma, I beg you, please don’t. I would really become famous at school, just now everyone already looks at me with enough disdain, if you deliver me to school every day..." At this point, Chuxia shivered unconsciously, such a scene would be absolutely unbearable!

"My granddaughter-in-law is pregnant, what’s wrong with me taking her to school?" Old Madam Zhou looked sincere, "Chuxia, are you embarrassed that grandma is old and makes you lose face hanging out with you?"

"Grandma, you’re really wronging me..." Chuxia looked bitter, "The main thing is, kids at Yuhong class don’t need their parents to take them, I’m a university student and still need my parents to take me, wouldn’t that be unreasonable, right?"

The old lady emphasized again: "But you’re pregnant."

"People at school don’t know yet."

"Then I’m even more determined to escort you, or else, if some unaware youngster bumps into you, that would be troublesome."

"Grandma..." Noticing the brief flash of amusement in the old lady’s eyes, Chuxia immediately understood, the old lady was teasing her. Hence, she smiled helplessly, "Well, wisdom comes with age; you’ve played me again."

"Hahaha..." The old lady laughed, "Not deliberately teasing you, I did originally want to go to school with you, but you’re right, that would make you too famous.
