Reborn in the 1970s

45

After returning from the town, Lu Yan went to see Lu Youcai to ask about renting a house. Chen Pan and Li Fu rested for a while, and then took out the washed cloth with great interest, preparing to make a small quilt for the baby.

Chen Pan's needlework was average, but Li Fu's craftsmanship was very good. Now was not the time when the Chen family had a private tailor and could make anything they wanted to wear. Li Fu took this opportunity to teach Chen Pan many of her special skills.

Li Fu had learned from a proper needlework master, and was truly a lady from a rich family. She could even do double-sided embroidery, so it was a piece of cake for her to teach Chen Pan needlework.

Chen Pan probably inherited some of Li Fu's talent and learned very quickly. The first time she did it, Chen Pan's stitches were very straight, not crooked at all.

However, Chen Pan was a novice after all, and the stitches of the quilt she sewed were very obvious and a bit ugly.

Li Fu saw this and patiently taught Chen Pan how to sew, so that the things she sewed would look more beautiful. The two of them were busy, one teaching and the other learning, when Lu Yan came back from Lu's house with a package.

Chen Pan was more concerned about renting a house in the town. When she saw Lu Yan coming back, she dropped her needlework and asked him impatiently, "How is it? What did your father say?"

Li Fu didn't know that Chen Pan wanted to rent a house in the town to take care of her after the baby was born. She looked up in confusion, wondering what Chen Pan and Lu Yan were talking about.

Fortunately, Lu Yan was a man who spoke his mind and didn't keep people in suspense. As soon as he opened his mouth, he solved Li Fu's doubts.

"Dad said that the empty houses in the town have not been occupied for a long time. Even if we can rent one, it is not suitable for mom to stay in confinement after childbirth. So he suggested that we rent a car from the hospital."

"I think what Dad said makes sense. You are still young and don't know how to take care of mom during confinement. When mom returns to the village to take care of her, you won't be in a rush with Liu Dongxia and Su Qing to help you."

"And my mom will be back from the town around the New Year. She has more experience. With her help, mom can definitely avoid confinement diseases during confinement after childbirth and take good care of her."

Lu Youcai and Lu Yan considered it so comprehensively. Chen Pan really didn't know how to take care of mom during confinement after childbirth, so she didn't insist on renting a house in the town.

"Okay, Dad has thought it through, I'll listen to him. Tomorrow you go to the town hospital and ask how to rent an ambulance. Let's book it in advance."

"Okay."

After finishing the business, the two of them talked to Li Fu again, and they made arrangements for her confinement, so that Li Fu had a clear idea. Lu Yan handed the package in his hand to Chen Pan.

"This is a package sent to you by Xing Yi in Taipei. When the postman came to our house to deliver the letter in the morning, we were not at home, so the postman put the package in the village office. Dad brought it back from the village office and asked Qiaoer to bring it back to you. When I went there, he gave it to me."

"There are two more letters, one from Xing Yi to you, and one from Hang Qing to Dad."

Hearing this, Chen Pan took the letter from Lu Yan and did not rush to see Xing Yi's letter and package.

Holding the letter from Hang Qing to Chen Kang'an, Chen Pan felt very complicated when she saw the neat and somewhat rigid handwriting on the letter.

"Mom...this, do you want to show it to Dad?"
