Godly Stay-Home Dad - Chapter 398

Chapter 398 – Martial Arts Family

After Mengmeng fell asleep near the window, Zhang Han gently covered the little girl with a small blanket. He looked at Mengmeng tenderly, as if she were more precious than those rare treasures. This was a father’s love.

“Honey, honey.”

Zi Yan took Zhang Han’s arm. When he turned around and leaned his head over, Zi Yan whispered, “What are you going to do with Mengmeng?”

“What am I going to do?” Zhang Han was confused.

“About cultivation.” Zi Yan pursed her lips and said, “Before getting on the plane today, Mengmeng asked what a Grand Master was.”

“Explain it to her. After all, Mengmeng will definitely become a cultivator,” Zhang Han said casually.

Although Mengmeng was not a son, as time went on, Zhang Han had been transformed by modern society and began to like his daughter, and the angel-like girl made him feel great. Besides, Mengmeng’s talent was even better than that of many boys, and Zhang Han was looking forward to seeing his daughter defeat all the divine children after they returned to the Cultivation World. Thinking of this, Zhang Han was more excited than he was when he became the Han Yang Immortal.

“No way!” Zi Yan shook her head and said.

“Before the age of seven, babies are all in the period of personality finalization. Mengmeng is still in the stage of getting to know the world, and is not suitable for developing such a supernatural ability. What if she had an accident while playing with other children? I think it’s better for her to stay away from cultivation for the time being. Besides, you don’t know anything about parenting except for how to dote on Mengmeng, which annoys me the most. You have to listen to me when it comes to raising and educating Mengmeng.”

Looking at Zi Yan’s serious face, Zhang Han nodded as he wanted to laugh and weep all at once.

“OK, it’s up to you,” said Zhang Han.

Zi Yan smiled contentedly. Looking around with big eyes, and finding no one paying attention to them, she quickly leaned over her head and kissed Zhang Han on his left cheek.

“It’s your reward,” whispered Zi Yan with her pleasant voice.

“Huh…” Zhang Han looked at Zi Yan with her long hair, who was specially dressed today. She was wearing a white blouse, black slacks, and beige coat, looking dignified, fashionable, and gorgeous. Zhang Han’s tone became aggressive as he whispered, “I want a more attractive reward.”

Staring blankly at Zhang Han, Zi Yan slowly moved her eyes down and stopped at Zhang Han’s lower body. She suddenly realized what Zhang Han meat and covered her lips with one hand. “No way!” she grumbled coyly.

Zhang Han grinned when he saw Zi Yan blushing.

Zi Yan was so pure that she knew little about men and women.

But it made Zhang Han feel that it was more interesting, for he could unlock one posture after another slowly.

He believed that one day, Zi Yan would be willing to wear sexy lingerie and…

Zhang Han’s teasing reminded Zi Yan of what happened in the hotel that day, and her face turned redder.

She blinked her big eyes and looked around, relieved to see no one looking this way.

Looking at the sleeping Zhang Li, she blinked her eyes quickly, looked at Zhang Han again, and asked seriously, “By the way, I haven’t seen your parents. Do you have any pictures?”

“There are some in my cloud.” Zhang Han nodded and took out his mobile phone. “No networking in flight mode.”

“If you have looked at the photos, there should be a cache in the gallery. Look for it,” said Zi Yan.

“Oh,” Zhang Han searched for a while, “Yes, this is my family photo.”

Zhang Han handed the mobile phone to Zi Yan, showing her the photo of him, Zhang Li, and their parents.

“You used to be dignified and strong.” When Zi Yan saw Zhang Han in the picture with flat hair, she couldn’t help laughing. “You and uncle are very similar, and auntie is so beautiful. They look so young.”

“Yeah, they look younger than they really are. My mother is very kind and has a very good temperament. As for my father, he was very tough and strict with me when I was young. I was beaten by him many times because of mischief.”

Zhang Han could still remember several times when he was very naughty and got his ass kicked by his father.

“Tell me about your childhood,” Zi Yan said curiously.

“I was naughty as a child,” Zhang Han replied in a soft voice of reminiscence.

“I’ve heard from some relatives that I didn’t like to be quiet when I was still a suckling child, and my mother had to walk around with me in her arms every day. When I grew up a little, I began making trouble with my friends. When I was five years old, I took the lead in skipping class and going out to play. I asked the teacher for sugar and put several pieces of gum on the teacher’s seat. Later, I didn’t think it was exciting enough, and thus applied glue on the chair. I remember one time a female teacher came to class…”

“Poof… You’re such a bad boy.” Zi Yan couldn’t help laughing.

“So I was beaten by my father and I knew that I had gone too far, so I began to play something else. Later, I went to live in the countryside for three years and made more friends. We played glass marbles, jumped rubber bands, threw shoes, vaulted, and played with mud after the rain. I used to make the mud into a bowl shape, throw it on the ground, and make a banging sound. In addition, we often played hide and seek. I remember that one time during the Spring Festival, it was my turn to find the other children. When they all hid, I went home for dinner. After dinner, I went to call them and found that they were still hiding in their original place…”

“You are too naughty.” Zi Yan felt it very funny and said, “I only saw that kind of rural life on TV. Let’s try it when we have a chance.”

“OK, the environment in the countryside is much better than when I was a child, otherwise you will not be able to stay there for long. The toilets used to be in the open air, and we had to go out at night… When I came back, there were welts bitten by the mosquitoes on my buttocks. I counted them at that time. I went to the toilet for four minutes and got 17 mosquito bites.”

“Eh!” Zi Yan’s face shrunk. Imagining what Zhang Han had described, she also felt like she was bitten by a mosquito.

“You used to be naughty. When did you stop being naughty?” Zi Yan then asked.

“I was naughty and rebellious until I was 16, and I often fought and made troubles for my parents. However, a small matter later had a great impact on me,” Zhang Han replied.

“What was it?”

“I remember that on my 16th birthday, I asked my mother for 100,000 yuan to go out and have fun with my friends, but my father wanted to take us to visit an important friend. I didn’t like it and even hit a plate to the ground angrily at lunch. But at that time, my father just forced us to go with him without saying anything about my behavior. We visited an old man in the suburbs, who felt my and my sister’s pulse. But I mocked him as a liar, which made my father embarrassed.”

As Zhang Han spoke, there was a weird light in his eyes.

“My father took me out of the house alone and sat down in a pond where there were many ducks swimming.

“He pointed to the duck on the left and asked what it was. I replied impatiently, ‘It’s a duck.’ He pointed to the duck on the right and asked what it was. I said more impatiently, ‘Didn’t I just finish? It’s a duck.’ Then my father pointed to the center again and asked what it was. I couldn’t help getting angry and I shouted, ‘Duck, that’s a duck. How can you not even know a duck? Why do you always ask! I said it a hundred times!’

“When I finished yelling, my father fell into silence, and I turned my head while wheezing and gasping. I was in a bad mood because I couldn’t go out to have fun. He always asked me questions, which made me angrier. But after a few minutes of silence, my father took out his mobile phone and showed me a video recorded when I was a child. It was also in the countryside and by the pond. I sat next to my father and pointed to the duck with a smile and asked, ‘What is that?’

“My father replied that it was a duck. I pointed to another one, ‘What is it?’ My father replied that it was a duck. There were 23 ducks in the pond, and I pointed 23 times. My father replied 23 times, and every time he replied, he had a gentle smile on his face.

“Then I suddenly understood something and admitted my fault to my father. I still remember the warmth in my dad’s eyes, and it felt like he was going somewhere, but he was reluctant to leave us. It was not until now that I realized that he wanted to say more with that look.”

Zhang Han fell into his memories. He could always feel his father’s deep love. Now that he was a father, he had a deeper understanding of it.

At that time, his father must have had something that he couldn’t say, and it might be related to his disappearance, which was still a mystery.

But Zhang Han was sure he’d unveil the mystery one day, and… resentment for resentment, hatred for hatred.

Zi Yan pursed her lips and felt the topic was a little serious.

“I’ll show you a picture of my parents…” She started to talk about something relaxing.

They chatted all the time, and the time passed quickly.

It was about 10 o’clock in the morning, and they would arrive at Xihang soon.

As the provincial city of Zhe Province, Xihang was not only a sub-provincial city, but also the political, economic, cultural, educational, and financial center of Zhe Province. This well-developed city was one of the most important e-commerce centers in Hua nation, where Mr. Sheng’s An Yu Technology was located.

There were a lot of natural and cultural landscapes and relics in Xihang, but Zhang Han only came here once and only remembered one dish called West Lake Fish in Vinegar Gravy, which tasted good.

“PaPa, MaMa, we are going to stop. I can see things on the ground.” Mengmeng looked outside the window and mumbled.

“Let’s go out for fun in the afternoon,” Zhang Han said with a smile.

“Great.” Mengmeng happily waved her little palm and said, “PaPa, I’ll get gifts for Big Heihei and Little Heihei this time.”

“All right. Mengmeng can choose the gifts by herself.” Zhang Han reached out and touched the little girl’s head.

“Well, I’ll choose carefully.” Mengmeng nodded seriously.

Zi Yan couldn’t help laughing and shaking her head. Mengmeng, Dahei, and Little Hei were really good friends.

Zi Yan had been convinced that many dogs were free of harmful bacteria, and she was more relieved to let the little girl play with them.

Soon after, the plane began to land. In general, there would be weightlessness when landing and sometimes tinnitus.

But with Zhang Han’s company, Zi Yan and Mengmeng didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. They just felt the plane land on the ground smoothly.

“Wow, what a sound sleep!” said Zhang Li and Zhou Fei.

They both stretched when they got off the plane.

Sleepiness seemed to be contagious. Seeing Zhang Li sleeping soundly, Zhou Fei soon fell asleep, so that they didn’t feel bored on the journey.

After they got off the plane, 10 people, including Zhao Feng and Leng Yue, guarded them on both sides.

With Mengmeng in his arms, Zhang Han took Zi Yan’s hand and led the way, followed by Zhou Fei and Zhang Li.

Many people were confused at the scene and thought a big shot was arriving.

Before they left the airport, Zhang Li’s cell phone rang.

“Hello, auntie, we just got off the plane and were going out. Mm-hmm, I see. OK, auntie.”

Hanging up the phone, Zhang Li said, “Brother, auntie has been waiting outside, let’s go out to the far right to see her.”

“OK.” Zhang Han nodded.

They walked out of the airport and looked to the right. There were six people standing about 50 meters away with a motorcade not far behind them. There were eight or nine Land Rovers in the team, led by a limousine.

The first two looked to be in their early 40s. With Zhang Han’s good eyesight, he recognized that the woman was Rong Jiaxin, his aunt.

She was about 1.65 meters tall, with a horsetail, willow eyebrows, and big eyes. She had a beautiful appearance and some similarities to Zhang Han’s mother. But there were a few crow’s feet at the corners of her eyes, which was a trace of time passing.

Next to her stood a middle-aged man of about 1.75 meters. He was well proportioned and dressed in a black coat, with a little white hair on both sides of his forehead and eyebrows.

In addition, there were two men and two women of middle age, who should be the relatives of Zhang Han’s uncle-in-law. It seemed that the relationship between the two families was pretty good.

Under the protection of Zhao Feng and others, Zhang Han and his friends walked over to them smoothly.

Zhang Li waved her arm and said loudly, “Aunt.”

Rong Jiaxin and the others looked at them in surprise, feeling that her nephew seemed to have a good life.

A few days ago, after learning that Zhang Han had been expelled from the Zhang family, Rong Jiaxin was very angry. Unexpectedly, Zhang Han had not only married and had children, but also seemed to have a good life. She was more looking forward to today’s reunion.

Seeing them coming, Rong Jiaxin took the lead to take a few steps forward.

“Aunt.”

Zhang Li jumped forward a few steps, holding Rong Jiaxin’s arm and laughing.

“Well, Lili, I haven’t seen you in years. You are so beautiful now,” Rong Jiaxin said happily.

“I’ve always been beautiful,” Zhang Li said with a smile.

Zhang Han and the others also stopped. He could feel that Zi Yan was a little nervous because she was holding his hand tightly.

“Han, I’m so happy that you’re married in the twinkling of an eye. Is this pretty girl your wife?” Rong Jiaxin looked at them with a complex and happy mood and said with a smile.

“Yes.” Zhang Han smiled and said, “Aunt, Uncle, I’d like to introduce Zi Yan, my wife, to you.”

Rong Jiaxin and her husband Wang Ming were a little confused. They felt that the name “Zi Yan” was a little familiar, but they didn’t remember where they had heard it.

“Nice to meet you, aunt and uncle.”

Zi Yan quickly took off her sunglasses and said hello with a smile.

“Wow.” Seeing Zi Yan without sunglasses, even Rong Jiaxin was amazed at her beauty. “She’s so beautiful. Han, your wife is so beautiful, I envy you so much.”

“Yes.” Wang Ming shook his head and smiled. “I often hear Jiaxin talk about you and Lili. You are both promising young people indeed.”

Zhang Han chuckled, ready to introduce Mengmeng to them.

The little girl had already stretched out her little arm, pouted her little mouth, and said, “And me, and me.”

“What’s your name then?” Rong Jiaxin’s eyes were full of love for the little angel.

“My name is Zhang Yumeng. They all call me Mengmeng,” Mengmeng said seriously.

Hearing this, Zhang Han smiled and said, “Mengmeng, they are your grand aunt and grand uncle.”

“Oh…” Mengmeng said, “nice to meet you, grand aunt and grand uncle.”

“What a good girl. I’ve got a present for you. Let’s get in the car first.” Rong Jiaxin gave Mengmeng a sweet smile, and then she patted her forehead. “I’m so happy that I forgot to introduce them. This is my husband’s brother Wang Gang, this is his wife, and this is brother Wang Liang…”

“Good to see you,” Wang Gang shook hands with Zhang Han with a smile and said, “Let’s get in the car first. It’s 11 o’clock now, and I’ll send someone to prepare lunch.”

“Don’t rush. I’ll go out later,” Zhang Han responded.

Then they got in the car. While Zhang Han and his family followed Rong Jiaxin and Wang Ming to get in the limousine, the others seated themselves in the Land Rovers. The motorcade left the airport slowly.

Zhang Han checked the Qi of these people.

In addition to his aunt’s sister-in-law, the other relatives were all martial artists. It seemed that his aunt had married into a martial arts family.

It was a little surprising that Rong Jiaxin was a Heaven-stage Master, though she could not control her Qi well, which meant that she had recently advanced to this stage. Wang Ming, her husband, was also a Heaven-stage Master, and it seemed that he had been in this stage for a long time. While Wang Liang, his brother, was a Profound-stage Master, Wang Liang’s wife was at the stage of Inward Strength.

As for the eldest brother, Wang Gang, he seemed to have restrained his Qi to avoid exposing his strength. But Zhang Han could sense that he was probably at the top of the Heaven Stage and close to the level of Grand Master. Although Zhang Han could check Wang Gang’s strength with his soul sense, it would be detected by Wang Gang, and Zhang Han was not interested in doing so.

After getting in the car, Rong Jiaxin took out a big and a small gift box from her bag and handed them to Zi Yan.

“Yan, it’s the first time I’ve met you, so here is a small gift for you.” She smiled.

“Thank you, aunt.” Zi Yan took it with a smile.

“Open it and see if you like the style. If you don’t like it, I’ll change it for you,” said Rong Jiaxin with a smile.

Zi Yan opened the two boxes and saw two necklaces. They were made of silver, very thin and inconspicuous, but the emerald pendants were so beautiful in the shape of a crescent moon.

“They are beautiful,” said Zi Yan pleasantly.

“Is this mine? It’s pretty,” Mengmeng held out her small hand, grabbed the smaller necklace and said.

“How nice.”

Zhang Han picked up the pendants in Zi Yan’s hand and looked at them. Inside the small nail-sized jade, someone had carved a small array, and both of them were Refreshing Arrays, which would give the wearers a good sleep and indirectly relieve their fatigue.

“Han, you will have the same necklace, which is a little larger than theirs, but I haven’t finished it yet. You can stay here for a few more days, and I’ll give it to you when I’ve finished,” Wang Ming said with a smile.

Zhang Han chuckled and said, “Thank you so much for your kindness.”

His uncle-in-law seemed to know something about arrays.
