Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets

Chapter 866: Chapter 866: The Good News Is Close at Hand

"That’s what you said, so if your big princess gets upset in the future, you have to protect her." Tang Yue tried hard to snuggle into his embrace. Her growing belly made it inconvenient, so she could only rest her fluffy head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat. Without hearing his response, Tang Yue fell asleep.

"Of course, I have to protect my big princess." Si Yu murmured, "Both my son and I will protect the big and little princesses together."

"The son should be born earlier, to be the elder brother, and the daughter later, to be the younger sister. Then, the brother can protect the sister, isn’t that nice?"

"..."

The response to Si Yu was Tang Yue’s deep and prolonged breathing.

She had fallen asleep again.

Si Yu lowered his head, seeing only a black fluffy head.

Ever since Tang Yue got pregnant, she seemed to sleep like she was possessed by the God of Sleep. Lying on the bed, she could fall into a deep sleep within five minutes.

Time flew by, and it was almost the end of July. These days, Tang Yue had been waiting for a call from Tang Jun, but ever since Tang Jun went to Shenzhen, there had been no news, which made her anxious. She didn’t dare to tell her parents, or else they would be worried to death.

And when Tang Jun came back, he would surely get a scolding.

Tang Yue occasionally glanced at the phone. As her belly grew bigger, she went out less often, spending most of her time walking around the yard at home or snuggling on the sofa to draw some sketches.

In order for her to comfortably sketch while snuggling on the sofa, Tang Yue specially designed a table that could be moved in front of the sofa. In the later years, it would sell like hotcakes, convenient to place beside the sofa, with a laptop on it, a cup of tea poured, making life as comfortable as it could be.

Tang Yue was doing just that, leaning against the soft sofa, feeling extremely comfortable.

Ding.

The phone rang, and Tang Yue went to answer it, thinking it was Tang Jun. Upon hearing it was a package from the post, Tang Yue called out to Zhang Hualian, and Zhang Hualian went to get it.

When it was brought back, Tang Yue immediately knew who sent it. It was Zhang Minmin, with a big bag full of diapers. She probably wouldn’t have to buy any herself.

"Who is it, sending you so many diapers?" Zhang Hualian returned with a big black bag. If she hadn’t done farm work back home and had some strength, she might not have been able to carry it.

"It should be Minmin."

Tang Yue was quite speechless. Zhang Minmin had only brought one pack over and said she would send some back. Tang Yue thought there would only be about ten packs, but unexpectedly... it was like a wholesale.

"This isn’t cheap, is it?" Zhang Hualian looked at so many diapers, sorting and categorizing them by size while clearing them into the house. She said, "I must say, Zhang Minmin is quite considerate. She even bought different sizes, so when the kids grow older, they can still use them."

"Indeed, she’s quite meticulous in this aspect." Tang Yue specifically chose a time in the evening when Zhang Minmin might be home to call her.

Zhang Minmin seemed to have just returned from outside, speaking slightly out of breath, "Xiao Yue, I just got home and guessed it was you when I heard the phone. How are the diapers? Not bad, right? I asked around; these diapers can last up to one year without any problem."

Knowing Tang Yue was expecting twins, Zhang Minmin had added a bit more quantity.

"Thank you." Tang Yue didn’t say she wouldn’t accept them, figuring since Zhang Minmin wasn’t married yet, she could buy something for her when she had kids.

Zhang Minmin happily started talking to Tang Yue about roles.

That conversation lasted more than half an hour. Luckily, the Tang Yue family wasn’t the type to lack phone bills; otherwise, this half-hour call would have cost a pretty penny.

Just after hanging up, the phone rang again.

"Minmin, what’s up? Did you forget to say something?" Tang Yue thought Zhang Minmin had more to say.

But from the other end came Tang Jun’s voice, "Sister, what Minmin? It’s your brother, Tang Jun."

"You’re back?" Tang Yue’s eyes instantly brightened.

"Yes, I got back the day before yesterday. I’ve been busy setting up the shop these past two days, sleeping late at night, and didn’t have time to call you." Tang Jun spoke of this matter with guilt and uneasiness in his tone.

"Hmph."

Tang Yue snorted slightly, saying, "So, you couldn’t even make a call to assure us of your safety? Do you know how worried I was?"

Tang Yue’s voice rose a few pitches. She asked, "Was everything smooth with your trip to Shenzhen?"

"Smooth," Tang Jun replied promptly but hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Actually, it was thrilling yet safe."

Hearing this, Tang Yue’s heart instantly tightened.

Tang Jun carefully recounted the trip to Shenzhen. With the help of the Song Family, their trip to Shenzhen went smoothly, and sourcing goods from the electronics market was also seamless.

Tang Jun and his three companions were very happy. Even Leng Hua said that finding the Song Family was quite fortunate, as everything was arranged properly.

They stayed in Shenzhen for four days, visiting every shop in the electronics market. They pooled together twenty thousand yuan, ending up with two thousand left, with the rest all turned into goods.

Everything went well until the day they were about to return, when something happened.

Mo Weidong and Leng Hua went to buy something for Xie Tiantian, which they couldn’t manage earlier and decided to specially detour to purchase. That’s when the trouble occurred. Perhaps, due to buying too many things these days, they were targeted.

Despite both Mo Weidong and Leng Hua having some skills, two fists couldn’t beat four hands. Fortunately, Mo Weidong was quick-witted, and he and Leng Hua avoided a direct confrontation by retreating to a crowded area. Additionally, carrying knives on them now came in handy.

In the end, it was thrilling yet safe, as the adversaries didn’t gain anything and risked getting caught, so they withdrew. However, this incident brought Mo Weidong and Leng Hua closer. Leng Hua’s quick thinking, paired with Mo Weidong’s cooperation, managed to avert disaster.

"Looks like Leng Hua has won over the brother-in-law."

Tang Yue smiled slightly. Although she hadn’t been to Sea City, based on Tang Jun’s description, knowing that Xie Tiantian and Leng Hua had such a good relationship likely indicated a good one with Mo Xiaoyu too. Now, with the addition of Mo Weidong, Mo Xiaoyu’s good news seemed imminent.

Tang Yue repeatedly reminded, "Xiao Jun, don’t rely on your martial skills to show off. There’s always someone stronger out there."

"I know, sister. You can rest assured."

Tang Jun was still anxious to get to the store to set it up. The summer holiday was very short, and if they didn’t hurry, they wouldn’t have time.

Beep.

The busy signal came from the other end. Tang Yue originally wanted to talk about Lian Qingyang too but figured she could discuss it when he returned.
