There are three days left until Chinese New Year.

Everyone was busy with their own things for the past three days, taking a break and cleaning.

The weather also kindly cleared up.

Yu Lian went to see Director Niu early in the morning and gave a very serious report on her situation.

Not only that, but they also prepared a handwritten explanation of the situation well in advance.

Director Niu took one look and realized that this child was a very particular person.

But the educated youth got pregnant as soon as they arrived, so who would do the work?

Anticipating Director Niu's concerns, Yu Lian proactively said, "Director Niu, don't worry, I'll still do the work. Once I'm further along in my pregnancy, you can arrange some easier tasks for me. It won't delay the spring planting."

"Haha... That's not what the director meant. I can tell you're a pro just by looking at how well you work."

"I've already prepared the letters of introduction for you two, but during your two days in the county town, you need to keep a close eye on your husband's ideological education, understand?"

"Director Niu, you can rest assured that I'll handle things well. I'm leaving now."

Yu Lian is very good at building good relationships with these elders. She has only been here for a few months, but Director Niu already trusts her completely.

After taking the letter of introduction, Yu Lian then took her son's hand.

I'm going to bring the kids along this time.

To avoid making things awkward between her and He Lin, and to prevent He Lin from taking the opportunity to retaliate against her.

Three years ago, Yu Lian accidentally stumbled upon him leading a group to deal with the traitors of the Chamber of Commerce.

In the pitch-black twilight, his pale face was exceptionally clear in the darkness, and in the blink of an eye, his fair cheeks were stained with bright red blood.

From then on, Yu Lian became extremely cautious, afraid that she might go too far and be secretly silenced by him.

Such a dangerous mission, if we hadn't been desperate at the time, my sister would have died.

She would never listen to her classmates and get involved with He Lin.

However, she doesn't regret it. At least her sister's life was saved, and she has such a lovely son.

I thought I would never be able to make up for what I owed the He family in this lifetime.

Seize the opportunity now, and just wait for this special period to pass.

She and the He family can then settle their differences.

With such good qualities, He Lin shouldn't be unable to find someone better.

"Dad! Over here!"

The little guy waved his little hand excitedly. He'd been spending all his time with his mom lately and had even neglected his dad.

I was quite excited to see my father.

"Daddy, hug me."

The little guy walked over with his short legs and stretched out his hand to make a request.

Li Ying suddenly appeared and refused the grandson on behalf of her son.

"An'an, let Daddy hold your hand and walk with you. It's inconvenient for Daddy to help Mommy too."

"It's okay, Mom, I can walk by myself."

He Lin picked up his son and held her with one arm.

After leaving the house, with his other hand free, the distance between the two people grew closer and closer.

Yu Lian kept adjusting her position, almost falling into the ravine.

"You wouldn't want me and my unborn child to die together, would you?"

He Lin: ...

"Then let's go inside."

Yu Lian changed her position and moved to the side closest to the mountain.

We walked all the way to the main road.

Since there were no regular buses, they would hitch a ride on passing trucks carrying ore.

"Mom, how long do I have to wait? I'm tired."

"See? What did Mom say to you last night? Are you sleepy?"

The little guy was carried down the mountain by his dad the whole way.

How could I be tired? I can tell I'm just sleepy.

"I'm sorry, Mom. I promise I'll sleep well tonight and I won't bother you for stories anymore."

"The car is here."

He Lin coldly reminded him.

Yu Lian stood up; there was a truck in the distance.

I don't know if I'll be able to give anyone a ride.

She started waving from afar.

The driver stopped the car. "Get in, are you one of the educated youth sent to the farm?"

"Yes, thank you, Master!"

"You're welcome. Going to the county town, right? Get in the car quickly."

The truck driver drove smoothly and at a fast speed.

Before getting off the bus, Yu Lian secretly slipped two yuan under the seat cushion.

He Lin noticed all her little actions.

"Thank you, brother. Keep this for the road."

The older brother doesn't want money, and she can't let anyone suffer a loss. In short, they are all ordinary people, and they should be considerate of each other when life is tough.

"Mom, didn't you say I could eat on the way if I got hungry?"

Watching her mother take out the rice cakes she had prepared for her, He Ning'an was a little worried about what she would eat if she got hungry later.

"How about Mom treats you to dinner at a restaurant later?"

"OK!"

Anyway, she knew that He Lin probably didn't have much money on him, and he would have to pay for everything himself on this trip.

"Let me see, the timing is perfect. Let's go eat and come back to register."

"I'll go to the hospital to get a number first, you take An'an there."

Yu Lian gave him a look that showed no sign of annoyance.

Isn't it just a concern about spending money?

"No, you have to go too. What if I fall? If you don't want this child, just say so. I won't bother you anymore."

Unusually, He Lin, usually so venomous, didn't retaliate this time.

After a long silence, he uttered two words.

"Feel sorry."

He couldn't control himself at the time.

If it weren't for that absurd day, she wouldn't be pregnant here.

"Um?"

"The responsibility for this pregnancy lies with me. From now on, I'll do all the work for you, regardless of whether the baby can be born."

"No need to apologize, I'm partly responsible too. Who told you to..."

Halfway through her sentence, Yu Lian looked down at the little boy who was staring longingly at his parents.

"cough……"

If we continue, it won't be something a child should listen to.

"So you're forgiving me?"

Yu Lian leaned closer and stared at He Lin.

He Lin turned his head away, clearly not wanting to pay attention to her.

"Tch—these two are exactly the same when they get angry, both so stubbornly arrogant."

Yu Lian strode ahead.

"Take the money and food coupons, order one meat dish, two vegetable dishes, and two catties of rice. Pay the money first, and I'll go to the post office to write a letter home."

Before He Lin could refuse, Yu Lian turned and left.

The state-run restaurant in the small county town wasn't very crowded.

After queuing for a few minutes, the father and son were served their meal as soon as they sat down.

Yu Lian sent the money, found a quiet place, took out the green fruits and vegetables from her space, and put them in a pre-prepared net bag.

He pretended that he bought it from a roadside stall.

This big bag is enough to last for half a month.

This is a time of severe shortage of supplies.

Especially after the Lunar New Year, for several months in a row, when there is a shortage of fresh produce, leafy greens are a rare treat for everyone on the farm.

"Eat up, don't wait for me, I have no appetite."

Yu Lian picked up her chopsticks and filled a large bowl with stir-fried meat for her son.

"You should have some too... never mind, I'll eat it myself."

Even though my chopsticks have been used by my child.

Looking at the dish, Yu Lian ultimately couldn't bring herself to eat it.

Noticing this, He Lin proactively pushed the bowl over.

"You'll eat it?"

"Um."

Yu Lian quickly poured the food into his bowl.

The child ate only a little of the two pounds of rice; the rest was eaten by He Lin.

Thinking back, He Lin used to be very restrained, whether he was eating or doing anything else.

A grown man can only eat two bowls of rice at most.

His situation had changed dramatically, and Yu Lian felt a little sad.

However, He Lin was lucky enough to marry someone he didn't like. But didn't the reward come at the crucial moment?

Yu Lian thought to herself that she was not the kind of person who would repay kindness with enmity; she had a sense of shame.

After the meal, the group went to the hospital.

They arrived quickly.

Yu Lian went in alone, while He Lin and his son stood at the door listening.

The examination didn't involve many procedures, but the doctor listened to the fetal heartbeat for a long time.

His face was full of doubt, and finally he looked at Yu Lian, "Did your family members come?"

"Doctor, I am her husband."
