Reborn in the Seventies: Pampered Wife, Owning some Farmland

Chapter 76: Chapter 76: Imbalance_1

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

Meng Yunhan immediately got up to answer it, only to see his mother-in-law standing outside.

Upon seeing Wang Minfang, Yunhan’s mother was delighted to have the young educated lady come over for a chat with her daughter-in-law.

“There’s boiling water on the stove. I just stopped by to see if you need more water in your flask?”

“Auntie, you really treat Hanhan well.” Such a kind mother-in-law is rare, she wonders if her own mother-in-law would be this loving.

“There’s a bit of water left.”

Seeing they were about to continue their conversation, Yunhan’s mother offered, “I’ll go fill the flask for you.”

Meng Yunhan didn’t stand on ceremony and handed over the flask, “Well, thank you, mom.” she handed the flask to Yunhan’s mother.

“You two carry on.” Taking the flask, Yunhan’s mother left the room.

“Your mother-in-law treats you so well.”

“Indeed, my mother-in-law is very kind, and my two sisters-in-law are also nice to me.”

A cold snort echoed in Wang Minfang’s mind: It would be strange if your two sisters-in-law treated you well. Now that you’re living with your mother-in-law, they must be very jealous!

Wang Minfang thought to herself, her face betraying no sign of her inner thoughts.

In fact, Zhang Cuihua and Zhao Fang were not entirely happy, but they didn’t dare to voice their dissatisfaction because their husbands would then ignore them. They weren’t living together and when they were pregnant, they didn’t go to work. However, now Meng Yunhan, despite being pregnant, was still teaching. Just on this account, they wouldn’t say anything.

Of course, Zhang Cuihua and Zhao Fang gossiped a lot in private, but they never dared to complain in front of their husbands. And they knew that if they actually complained to their mother-in-law, she would have frowned at them. Meanwhile, Meng Yunhan was pregnant. If anything happened to her, they would likely be blamed, and their youngest brother-in-law might turn against them.

After chatting a bit more, Wang Minfang returned home.

Meng Yunhan closed the door and lay on the bed to read. She hadn’t attended high school, so she needed to catch up with high school material.

Apart from teaching during the day and doing some household chores she could handle, she would stay in her special space to read in the evening. There was no night there, only daylight, whilst outside, day gradually turned into night. At this time, there was no electricity, so she had to rely on the kerosene lamp. However, she didn’t have a kerosene coupon. It was better to read in her special space. It was a win-win solution.

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year’s Day.

Most of the women had stopped working and were now nesting at home for the winter, while a few restless ones went to the commune to twist straw ropes every day and got work points in return.

“Shufang, your daughter-in-law must be five months pregnant now, right?”

Yunhan’s mother smiled and nodded, “Indeed, she’s more than five months pregnant. There’s one more month until the New Year, I don’t know if my son will come back for a visit.”

“Shufang, your daughter-in-law got pregnant so soon after marriage. My daughter-in-law has been married for a year and she’s not pregnant yet.”

“Ahao is almost thirty years old, your second son is several years younger than Ahao.”

“Shufang, I think your third son’s wife has a big belly. Is she having twins?”

Yunhan’s mother laughed lightly, “I wish! But no one in our family has ever had twins.”

“Since your daughter-in-law is pregnant, can she still handle her teaching job?”
