Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 1355: The Absent Make the Heart Grow Fonder, the Present Annoy

Knowing that both Xinyan and Shen Guqing are experiencing mild morning sickness, the braised fish was placed farther away from them to avoid triggering any reaction.

With a cheerful expression, Mr. Du raised his glass: "Master, Madam, thank you for taking such good care of us these past few days. We haven’t enjoyed the joys of our own children, but we’re already reaping the benefits from our disciples and their children. Come, let’s all raise a glass to celebrate the New Year together."

For a moment, the room was filled with joyous laughter.

After the meal, Xinyan and He Jinxuan made an excuse to go home and fetch some ginseng, and took a stroll outside.

When the second senior brother saw the ginseng Xinyan brought over, he was excited and couldn’t stop saying, "Thank you, thank you, the quality of this ginseng is superb."

Xinyan and He Jinxuan exchanged glances, both thinking in unison: This is a product from the space, so of course the quality is top-notch.

The second senior brother took the ginseng and left ahead of time, planning to go back and quickly make the medicine, to lessen the suffering of a clan uncle. However, the rest of the second senior brother’s family stayed behind.

During this time, several of the juniors had already tidied up the kitchen.

In the living room, tea, snacks, fruits, and nuts were set up. Xinyan jested, "Come, come, everyone sit down, the tea party is about to begin."

This made everyone burst into laughter.

Mr. Du inquired one by one about the juniors’ work and studies, while Mrs. Du handed out red envelopes, encouraging them to be positive and ambitious.

Around four o’clock, Xinyan and Shen Guqing’s families bid farewell to their Master and Madam, preparing to head back to the Zhang Family together.

The second sister-in-law was also preparing to go home with her family, agreeing that the eldest brother’s family would stay with their Master and Madam that night. The following day, she and the second senior brother would come over to accompany their Master and Madam for guests.

Xinyan playfully held onto Madam’s arm and said, "Madam, I won’t be coming over the next couple of days, hope you don’t miss me too much."

Mrs. Du gave her a gentle pat and responded, "Oh dear, with your eldest and second senior brothers’ families here for the next few days, I won’t have time to miss you."

Xinyan pretended to be upset, pouting, "Madam, you’ve changed. You used to cherish the distant more than the near, and now you’re starting to dislike me?"

Mrs. Du was thoroughly amused by her, "Alright, alright, you’re not afraid of the juniors laughing at you despite your age."

Some of the juniors were older than Xinyan, so none dared to make fun of her. The younger ones followed suit, pretending not to notice.

These little interactions once again sent everyone into peals of laughter.

Zhang Yueshan drove over and Xinyan and He Jinxuan asked him to take a detour to pick up the gifts they prepared for Granny Zhang before heading out together.

He Jinxuan brought home a small company truck when it went on holiday. This time, they drove over directly, knowing they might be returning late at night and worried there wouldn’t be public transport, as Xinyan couldn’t stand the cold now.

When they arrived at the Zhang Family, Granny Zhang noticed Xinyan and He Jinxuan brought a lot of things again: "Oh my, you already had so much meat, eggs, fish, and vegetables sent over before the holidays, and now even more."

Xinyan smiled as she entered, "If it weren’t for the fact that the Chongyang Mountain Villa truck doesn’t come by often, I’d have them bring you vegetables every day. Besides, the greenhouses on that side are growing stuff this winter, so I must let you taste some."

It’s true; the Chongyang Mountain Villa truck delivers vegetables to various city locations every day, but not where Zhang Yueshan works, so it’s a long detour to get there. So, Xinyan visits Granny Zhang directly with vegetables from the space, hoping to help with her health.

As for their Master and the Gu Family, since there are delivery points nearby from Chongyang Mountain Villa, vegetables are delivered to them every few days. Of course, Xinyan also sends some space-grown fruits to them every now and then.

Granny Zhang had already prepared the ingredients; what’s meant to be stewed is already on the stove, and the cold dishes are ready, leaving only a few hot dishes to be stir-fried.

Zhang Yueshan and He Jinxuan suggested Granny Zhang chat with the two pregnant women while they headed to the kitchen.

Granny Zhang turned to Xinyan and said, "I made some diapers for you; take them home with you and just wash and dry them when it’s closer to your due date."

Xinyan chuckled, "Elder sister has enough to keep you busy here, yet you made these for me. Don’t tire yourself out."

Granny Zhang stood up, went to the room, and brought out a large bundle, "Besides taking care of them every day, I have nothing else to do. These were easy enough to make, and there’s plenty of time, so I won’t get tired."

What she didn’t say was that she started working on these before they got pregnant and just hadn’t mentioned it to avoid burdening them.

Xinyan didn’t expect Granny Zhang to have prepared so much: "Granny Zhang, are these all for me?"

Granny Zhang smiled and opened the bundle, "Yes, these are all yours. I’ll make some baby clothes for your little one later, and with what your family has prepared for you, you just need to rest and prepare for childbirth."

It’s undeniable that Xinyan was touched; Granny Zhang has been truly good to her.
