Chapter 21: Isn’t it wrong to let her eat alone? _1
“Sister is right. At brother San’s age, he should already be a father to several children.”
Mother Yun pondered for a moment, “But he cannot go to the army yet.”
Seeing that her persuasion hadn’t swayed their mother, Yun Shuang sighed, “Mother, you’re not understanding what I mean. I’m saying they should be together, only then can you quickly hold a grandson in your arms.”
“Shuangshuang, I understand what you mean, but your sister-in-law is a teacher. If she goes with the army, someone else will take her job. In the future, it will be tough for your younger brother to raise the child alone. Let them work things out first.”
When Yun Meng’s eyes lit up, she said, “Sister, mother makes a good point, though Brother San receives an allowance every month, it would still be difficult to support his wife and child alone. Even a mere shallot costs money, just like people in the county.”
Yun Shuang was at a loss for words, as her mother and sister seemed to have a long list of thoughts in response to her simple statement.
“When the summer vacations begins, let Hanhan go and visit him.” Mother Yun also wants a grandchild, but she would not risk her daughter-in-law’s job for it.
“Since mother has thought it through, I have nothing more to say.” Yun Shuang loved her youngest brother dearly. Seeing that he was nearing thirty without marrying, she was anxious. Now that he had finally found a wife, she was relieved.

“Why are you making me steamed egg custard? Isn’t it a bit strange to have me eat alone?”
“To replenish your strength.” Yun Hao pulled her to sit on the stool. He covered the pot and sat next to Meng Yunhan, tending the fire.
“Why do you need to nourish me? Does mother-in-law know?” Would it be a problem if mother-in-law knew her son was cooking a special meal for her?
She didn’t want a small meal to cause a disruption at home.
In her previous life, she tasted all sorts of delicacies until she ultimately lost her taste buds.
“Mother knows.” Yun Hao bluntly responded, seemingly silencing Meng Yunhan
“Yun Hao, it’s all your fault.” Meng Yunhan thought about her still weak legs and wished she could take a bite out of him. She pleaded with him the night before, but he didn’t listen, and it ended embarrassingly, especially when her sister-in-law looked over with a suspicious expression.
Yun Hao was busy stoking the fire.
A few minutes later, the egg custard was ready. He took it out and placed it in another dish. Handing her a small spoon, he said, “Eat!”
“Let’s eat together.”
“I’ve already eaten.”
Seeing that Yun Hao didn’t want to eat, and considering she was actually quite hungry, Meng Yunhan devoured the entire dish.
“Yun Hao, you go and chat with my brother-in-law and sister-in-law. I will prepare lunch.” It was about time to prepare lunch.
Feeling full brought back some energy.
“Your eldest sister and younger sister are there.”
Meng Yunhan didn’t know what to say. However, she explained patiently, “They are the guests.”
Seeing that Yun Hao wasn’t moving, Meng Yunhan had to resort to her coaxing tone, “How about this, after lunch, I’ll take a rest?”
Seeing that Yun Hao still wouldn’t move, Meng Yunhan got up and tried to guide him out. She nearly fell over in the process, thanks to Yun Hao’s quick reflexes, saving her and preventing a potential embarrassing fall.
An embarrassed Meng Yunhan gave Yun Hao a few taps, “It’s all your fault, all your fault.”
“I will call sister and the others.”
Meng Yunhan’s face turned red.
