He Jinxuan was the last to arrive today, but thatâs because he got a call from Xinyan before setting off, asking him to make a detour to buy a few roast ducks.
He Jinxuan thought it was the little girl craving, so he cheerfully went to do it.
But the real reason was that the mother-in-law was having cravings, suddenly wanting roast duck. Han Jingchen originally planned to drive and buy it himself, but Xinyan stopped him.
She figured since He Jinxuan was coming over, it would be convenient for him to go to the shop.
Sure enough, when Han Chunxue saw Jinxuan coming in, she stood up with a smile: "Jinxuan is here."
Sun Zhenhai saw what he was carrying and exclaimed, running over: "Brother He, did you buy roast duck?"
Next to him, Han Chunxue laughed and scolded: "You little rascal, why are you yelling so loudly?"
Sun Zhenhai laughed: "Iâve been craving this all day."
Xinyan heard her little cousinâs words and thought of something: "Anyone who doesnât know would think you are having cravings too."
Sun Zhenhai, being clever, immediately understood the situation: "No worries, I wonât compete with the little cousin in Second Uncleâs wifeâs belly, Iâll let him have it first."
Everyone had another hearty laugh.
Gu Wanqing actually had a strong craving now, but she couldnât bring herself to eat in front of so many people.
Yet Han Jingchen, sitting beside her, didnât care and got up, pulling her towards the dining area: "Youâre pregnant, if you want to eat, just eat. Donât let your taste change later and not be able to eat."
He took one duck, split it into three portions, first placing one portion on the dining table for Gu Wanqing.
Then, he waved Sun Zhenhai over, pointing to the two remaining portions on the table: "Take them over to your big cousinâs wife, the other one is yours."
Sun Zhenhai felt a bit embarrassed, but was delighted inside: "Do I get the same treatment as Second Aunt and Big Cousinâs wife?"
Seeing Second Uncle about to speak, he quickly added: "But I like it, Second Uncle and Second Aunt are good to me."
After saying that, he swiftly carried the two plates away.
Sun Zhenhai was quite good at it, after serving his pregnant big cousinâs wife a portion, he divided his own into pieces, strongly sharing them with Second Cousinâs wife, cousin, and his own sister, excusing: "This is called sharing the blessings."
None of them wanted to decline his goodwill, nor expose his little scheme, so they all accepted it.
Actually, the kid was just embarrassed to eat alone, and with the meal about to start, everyone simply shared, so no one could tease him anymore.
Han Chunxue and Su Aihong chatted a lot with Gu Wanqing after she finished that portion of roast duck.
Gu Wanqing was initially a bit embarrassed, and Han Chunxue, thinking carefully, said: "Second Sister-in-law, thatâs how it is when youâre pregnant; you never know what youâll suddenly crave. If youâre late, the cravingâs gone, and you donât enjoy it anymore."
Gu Wanqing laughed, covering her mouth: "Itâs indeed like that. I remember when pregnant with Yanyan, I craved shredded pork in Beijing sauce in the middle of the night, making my mother fuss for over an hour, and when it was finally made and served, I had no appetite at all."
As they chatted, the topic shifted to Sun Zhenling.
Su Aihong didnât know about Yuan Yikai, just remembered a friend at work asking if there was a suitable girl to introduce to their nephew. She had asked about the young manâs situation in detail.
Later, she hadnât heard her niece mention the previous boyfriend, thought it ended, and asked: "Zhenling, are you seeing anyone now?"
With this question, Sun Zhenling first glanced at her mother, then gave Xinyan a look, asking her to help later, calmed her emotions before saying: "Big Aunt, Iâm still young and not planning to marry early."
Su Aihong laughed: "Your auntâs colleague wants to find someone for his nephew, I inquired a bit, the young man is not only good-looking but also has a decent job, do you want to meet first?"
Sun Zhenling was sweating from anxiety, looking towards Xinyan, the expression made people want to laugh.
Sigh, who asked her to be my dear cousin, and knowing sheâs currently dating Yuan Yikai secretly from the family, better not provoke another blind date now, to avoid future conflict between Big Aunt and her colleague, it wouldnât be nice.
