At this moment, Sister Chen came in from the kitchen: "The meal is ready."
Han Jingchen glanced at his watch: "Let’s wait another ten minutes, Baowei and Chaoyang, Chaoxu should be here soon."
Just as he finished speaking, the doorbell rang.
Su Aihong looked outside: "Speak of the devil."
She turned to Sister Chen: "Sister Chen, everyone’s here, let’s serve the dishes."
Sun Baowei walked in together with the eldest son Han Chaoyang, and the second son Han Chaoxu of the main family.
After Han Jingchen introduced Xinyan to the three of them, he said to Xinyan, "This is your Uncle Sun Baowei, and that is your big cousin Han Chaoyang, second cousin Han Chaoxu."
Xinyan greeted them: "Uncle, big cousin, second cousin."
Han Chaoyang disagreed: "Why call me big cousin, just call me Big Brother, you’re the only girl in the family."
Su Aihong wanted to give a thumbs-up to her eldest son: "Yes, your Big Brother is right."
Han Jingchen originally wanted to argue, but since Sister He spoke up, he couldn’t say much more. His daughter just came back, and there were already so many people vying with him. It was distressing.
Sister Chen quickly set the table: "The dishes are ready."
Han Jingchen invited everyone to sit down.
After everyone was seated, Han Jingchen brought out some Beibingyang and prepared to pour it for everyone: "Those going home can head home later, those returning to the army can go back to the army. I am not well and the doctor has advised against drinking, so we’ll use soft drinks instead today."
No sooner had he finished, than the Beibingyang in his hand was taken by He Jinxuan: "I’ll pour."
Han Jingchen did not stop him, thinking: at least he knows what’s appropriate.
However, He Jinxuan didn’t end up pouring it, as it was intercepted by Han Chaoyang who handed it to Han Chaohui nearby: "You’re a guest, better suited for Han Hui to handle this."
Han Jingheng, upon hearing his eldest son’s words, slightly raised his chin, signaling the younger son to start.
Han Chaohui cheerfully said: "Exactly, exactly, I’m the best suited for this task."
Saying this, he poured a glass for each person.
Han Jingchen raised his glass: "Come, let’s all raise a glass to welcome Yanyan home."
The clinking of glasses filled the room, each face wore a smile, and the entire room was filled with the scent of love.

In Sanyuan City, Sister He, Wang Erni’s eyes brimmed with hatred as she looked at He Jian Country who was standing there: "I will never forgive you, get out."
He Jian Country’s face was clouded: "Sister-in-law, I know no words can make up for the pain of losing a child, but Yumei really didn’t mean it, after all, even you didn’t know you were pregnant, she really acted unintentionally."
Sister He wiped the tears from her face: "He Jian Country, even if I wasn’t pregnant, Gao Yumei deliberately seized the chance to harm me, because she used all her strength to shove me. I won’t let her go, and you two know well if what I say is true."
Sister He’s words were indeed true. Gao Yumei originally just wanted to take the opportunity to retaliate against Wang Erni. She felt humiliated previously in the courtyard of the main family; why should all the good things go to them? She had done it intentionally, not knowing that Wang Erni was pregnant, which directly led to the accident.
He Jian Country looked at He Jiefang standing to the side: "Big Brother, can you persuade Sister-in-law? If Yumei gets locked up, how will I get by? Jiahui and Jiaming are still so young, do you really not care?"
He Jiefang frowned at He Jian Country: "But have you thought about whether asking me to persuade Sister-in-law to let Gao Yumei go will make her forgive me? After all, a young life is lost just like that, do you not have a heart?"
