Chapter 328: Chapter 327: Su Ling’s Pregnancy
"Sure, if there are goods available, could you notify me?"
"No problem." Having a regular customer, Lin Wan was naturally happy. She quickly noted Zhao Minhua’s phone number.
After being busy for more than a month, the heavy burden in her heart was finally lifted.
At noon, when she was on her way home, she passed by the grocery market and bought five pounds of fatty and lean pork belly.
Unexpectedly, Han Yi wasn’t home when she returned.
Thinking about how he said last night that he would meet some comrades today, she felt relieved.
She sliced the pork belly into uniform pieces and began to render lard.
After it was cooked, she sprinkled some seasoning on top. Lin Wan packed the cooled lard into two metal milk powder buckets.
When Han Yi was about to leave, she gave it to him, since there was no rice or flour there, and he could use it to fill his belly if he got hungry at night.
After being busy, Lin Wan ate a few bites of lard, took half a pound of brown sugar, and went out riding a mountain bike.
Passing by the front street, Lin Wan dropped off the brown sugar and corn with the popcorn vendor, saying she’d come to get it later.
Yin Peibai’s new home is easy to find, the most recognizable landmark on East Street, with its unique architecture.
The second house in the second row, easy to spot.
"You finally came. I was just saying to Pei Bai that you might have something today." As Lin Wan just parked her bike and locked it, she saw Su Ling lounging in the yard eating grapes.
Lin Wan blinked. "How come there are still grapes now?"
"Late-ripening grapes, Liu Wei got them from out of town specifically for me."
"Huh?"
"Hmph, she’s not here to congratulate me; she’s here to show off. See, flaunting two bunches of grapes to make people envious." At this moment, Yin Peibai came out of the house, rolled his eyes at Su Ling, and mockingly said, but he didn’t seem angry at all.
Lin Wan chuckled twice, walked up, grabbed a grape, and popped it in her mouth. "I’m not just envious; I also have a craving."
"Shoo, shoo, you guys be careful now, we’re considered ’national treasures’ nowadays."
Lin Wan gave Su Ling an inexplicable look and consulted Yin Peibai with her gaze.
"That’s right, she’s pregnant. Her husband’s family cherishes this, you know? You should have seen how cautious Liu Wei was when he brought her over this afternoon. Oh, I’m so envious; my Han Fu never treated me like this."
"Pregnant? How many months?" Lin Wan quickly handed the items to Yin Peibai and then turned to Su Ling, curiously asking.
"Just over two months," Su Ling said shyly, blushing like anything.
"How did you get pregnant? I’ve been married to Han Yi for over a year, and there’s been no sign."
Upon hearing this, Su Ling almost choked on a grape in anger. "I’ve been married to Liu Wei for two years, and we haven’t been apart for a day. You have no idea how pressured I felt. Finally, it’s all good now; I’m pregnant."
"Two years, huh" she’s not even doing better.
"It’s not my fault, it’s hereditary in our family. My mom only had a few kids, too. It was two years after she married my dad before my brother was born, and then waited two or three years before having me."
"But there’s no such hereditary issue in our family." Lin Wan thought about the age gap between her and her brother. It didn’t seem that big.
"Your Han Yi is seldom at home; it’s not like us..." Su Ling realized something and leaned in. "Have you guys thought about having kids?"
Lin Wan pursed her lips and nodded.
"Let me tell you a method, like this..."
"This gets you pregnant?"
"Higher conception rate."
"Oh."
"Xiao Wan, is this bedspread for me?" Yin Peibai cheerfully ran out holding the set of four pieces Lin Wan gave her.
