Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets

Chapter 809: Chapter 809: The Baby’s Seniority Is Too Low

Qingqing was right. If she didn’t sign, with Lian He’s tactics, who knows, even Xiang Family’s last bit of foundation might be gone.

Xiang Yawen is almost a useless person now. Mr. Xiang and Mrs. Xiang, now dragging their aging bodies, still have to manage the only remaining company of the Xiang Family. It’s already very hard, and if they can’t keep this last company, Mr. Xiang and Mrs. Xiang definitely won’t be able to bear it.

As long as the green hills remain, there will be no fear of running out of firewood.

After weighing her options, Xiang Yazhi decided to sign the divorce agreement.

She wanted to take advantage of the situation to ask for some benefits, but as soon as the thought occurred to her, it was dismissed by Lian Qingqing.

Benefits?

Lian He didn’t send Xiang Yazhi to prison, that’s already fortunate enough.

"Alright, you can leave now." Lian He spoke.

Xiang Yazhi, shocked, pointed at Lian He and asked, "In the middle of the night, where do you expect me to go?"

"You are no longer part of the Lian Family."

Lian He reminded her, and Nanny Xu immediately came over with people.

"Dad." Lian Qingqing had just started to speak when Lian He interrupted her, "Wait for the results."

Lian He had people take Xiang Yazhi away, leaving only Lian Qingqing in the room.

Lian Qingqing looked at the tightly closed door, knowing clearly that Lian He was waiting for the test results.

Mom, you must remember to find Brother Ziyue.

Lian Qingqing leaned against the door. Ever since she found out about her lineage, she hadn’t had a good night’s sleep, always worried about her identity being exposed.

Now, since Lian He already knew, Lian Qingqing simply lay in bed and enjoyed a sweet sleep.

Jing City.

Tang Yue silently calculated that Lian He should have been at the Lian Family for a day. How would Lian He deal with this matter?

"Xiao Yue, how do you think my stitched patterns look? Are they beautiful?" Lian Tong handed her the fabric strips.

On the strips, there were lots of densely stitched lines, but... despite learning for quite some time, Lian Tong really had no talent in this area.

"They look good." Tang Yue complimented with some reluctance, as the stitched lines were as messy as bird’s nests, and you could vaguely see the crooked lines that Lian Tong had sewn.

"Alas, I really think I have no talent." Lian Tong sighed deeply. She intended to be praised, but Tang Yue’s half-hearted compliment made Lian Tong feel embarrassed.

"Oh, Sister-in-law Tang, what are you making?"

Lian Tong suddenly saw in the yard, basking in the sun, holding cashmere and knitting small clothes.

"Are these clothes for a little baby?" Lian Tong walked up and took a closer look; they seemed like little clothes.

"Yes." Zhang Hualian nodded and said, "These are for the future grandson."

"Grandson..."

Lian Tong’s gaze immediately fell on Tang Yue’s flat stomach and she asked, "Xiao Yue is pregnant?"

"Aunt." For a moment, Tang Yue didn’t know how to answer.

If it weren’t for Lian Tong’s previous incident, Tang Yue would definitely have happily shared the news with Lian Tong.

But, Lian Tong had just lost a child.

At this critical moment, Tang Yue’s joy was deeply pressed in her heart.

"Xiao Yue, news of pregnancy is such happy news. How could you not tell your aunt?" Seeing Tang Yue’s hesitation, Lian Tong immediately understood that Tang Yue was really pregnant, but was afraid it would make her feel bad, so she deliberately didn’t mention it.

Tang Yue’s considerate nature made Lian Tong like her even more. She held Tang Yue’s hand and said, "Xiao Yue, I know you’re afraid I’d feel bad, but I’ve already come to terms with it, so you don’t have to worry about me."

"Aunt is genuinely happy for you. So, is your Meng Siyu in Jin City still unaware of this good news?" Lian Tong had a smile on her face, and even those beautiful eyes contained a bit of delighted sparkle.

Tang Yue, seeing that Lian Tong was indeed not upset, finally said, "Yes, he doesn’t know yet. It’s only three months, and he’s about to return to Jing City soon, then I can tell him the good news."

Speaking of Meng Siyu, thinking about those sometimes nightly calls, that kind of sweetness made her impatient to tell him.

Several times on the phone, Tang Yue had an urge to spill the beans, but she held back.

Though Si Yu didn’t have to go on missions at school, carrying such good news without telling him face-to-face would certainly be a regret.

"Wow, so I’m going to be a grandaunt!" Lian Tong suddenly exclaimed. She looked at Zhang Hualian and asked, "Xiao Yue calls me Aunt, so Xiao Yue’s child should call me Grand-Aunt, right?"

"That’s right." Zhang Hualian nodded.

Lian Tong was thrilled, she said, "Oh my, I’m going to be a grandaunt! No, no, I need to be a mom soon, or I’ll be called old."

Lian Tong pouted; she didn’t want to be called old, and her initially cold face immediately felt more down-to-earth.

If Aunt can say that, she must have truly come to terms with it. She cleared her throat and whispered to Lian Tong, "Aunt, no matter how hard you and Uncle try, you can’t catch up with us."

"Hmph, even if we can’t catch up, your baby will still have to call my baby uncle or aunt." Lian Tong found this idea quite delightful.

"Poor baby, so low in the pecking order." Tang Yue caressed her still-flat stomach, feigning regret, yet she had a naturally beautiful look, and her pregnancy made her entire face seem gentler. This appearance was remarkably adorable.

Lian Tong couldn’t help but pinch her smooth little face and said, "Oh, stop it. The lower position means more red envelopes. Don’t worry, this grandaunt won’t be stingy."

"Sister-in-law Tang, could you also teach me?" Lian Tong, after learning for so long, couldn’t even make a simple pair of pants. Seeing Zhang Hualian’s small clothing, she immediately liked it.

The white cashmere, soft and delicate, produced adorable little clothes. Those tiny garments instantly captivated Lian Tong, and she said, "Sister-in-law Tang, please teach me. Although I’m clumsy, this looks quite simple."

Lian Tong looked at Zhang Hualian, and her eagerness was almost palpable.

"Sure, I have needles and cashmere. How about I start it for you?" Zhang Hualian offered.

Lian Tong nodded eagerly.

Zhang Hualian wasn’t stingy, she took out a new ball of cashmere and a set of needles, and began to start off. Zhang Hualian was skilled at this, and plus, the clothes made for the little baby were very small, so in no time, Zhang Hualian had knitted quite a bit. She showed every motion meticulously to Lian Tong, stitch by stitch.

The bottom edge was knitted with the simplest knit and purl stitches, one knit stitch followed by one purl stitch, without any patterns, and required very little skill.

However, to knit a beautiful garment, even hand tension is needed so that the resulting small sweater would look good and appear consistent.
