Chapter 138 Fortunately, the genes are strong enough
After hearing what he said, Tang Man's heart softened. She reached out and hugged Xie Yan's head tightly, patting him gently.
"I miss you, too. I made this special trip because I wanted to see you."
After saying that, she lowered her head and gently kissed Xie Yan on the forehead.
Xie Yan raised his head and his gaze fell on the woman in front of him who was looking at him lovingly, his eyes full of affection. He held her head, moved close to her, and sealed her soft lips.
This passionate and affectionate kiss lasted for a long time, until Tang Man felt that she was almost out of breath, and Xie Yan reluctantly let her go.
Their eyes met, and there was a fiery light flashing in each other's eyes, as if they wanted to melt each other.
Xie Yan patted Tang Man's head and said, "Don't worry, my wife. I will marry you home in 8 days."
"Yeah!" Tang Man responded, leaning on him, and accidentally glanced at the document on the table... the appeal letter.
"This is..." She picked up the document and started reading it.
"I wanted to wait until everything is over before telling you that I want to appeal. I have to make myself innocent before marrying you. Dad and my eldest brother are both soldiers. If you marry a man with a history of rape and a rapist, people will point fingers at you wherever you go. It will also make my parents lose face. Who knows, it might even affect Dad and my eldest brother's work."
Tang Man looked up at him and asked, "You've waited so many years to appeal, is it because you won't do anything right without me?"
"I will come back. My family is here. I will come back no matter what."
He just came back but would not appeal, because the person who made things difficult for him was his mother, so he would accept it no matter how much hardship he had to endure.
"Xie Yan, you are a fool." Tang Man hugged Xie Yan, tears of heartache fell down, one by one soaking into Xie Yan's cotton coat.
That woman is not worthy of being a mother, and even less worthy of Xie Yan treating her like this.
Xie Yan didn't notice that the person in his arms was already in tears. He smiled and kissed Tang Man's head. "Haha! I call this a fool's luck. If I hadn't been stupid, how would I have met you?"
Tang Man nuzzled Xie Yan's chest, wiped away her tears, then raised her head and asked, "What are the chances of an appeal?"
"One hundred percent. After I was demoted, the Yu family was worried that my grandfather and his men would investigate the matter thoroughly, so they used various tricks to send the servants who knew about these things to the police station. After my grandfather found out, he used some connections to get all the people out and arranged for them to work in various branches of Yu Ren Tang. They were waiting for me to come back and appeal on my behalf so that these people could come out to testify.
Grandpa didn't tell me about this because he knew I didn't want to do it, and also because he hadn't found out why the man from the Public Security Bureau insisted on marrying the Yang family and even dragged the Xie family into it."
"These two families must have a conspiracy, otherwise you wouldn't have been sent down, and they still won't let you go. Will there be any problem with appealing at this time? If not, we can wait a little longer.
As for what others say, I don’t care. My parents don’t care either. It won’t have a big impact on my dad and my eldest brother’s work. My grandfather told me today that my dad might get a raise before the end of the year.”
"It doesn't matter. No matter what they want to do, I won't give them the slightest chance."
Knowing that Xie Yan had his own plans, Tang Man did not continue this topic and spoke up to change the subject.
"By the way, I promised to bring a bottle of longevity pills for Grandpa Deng. When I take you back tonight, I'll give you a bottle and you can give it to Grandpa Deng."
"Okay, I'll send it to Grandpa Deng tomorrow night." Xie Yan nodded and put his hand on Tang Man's belly. "Wife, has the baby been bothering you these days?"
"Apart from being sleepy, I have no other problems. I haven't had morning sickness since I started wearing the sachet you made."
"It's normal to be sleepy in the early stages. Sleep when you're sleepy and eat when you're hungry. You're pregnant now, so don't worry about the rules. Everything should be based on your own needs, okay?"
Tang Man nodded, "Yeah!"

The next day.
The ringing of the phone woke up the two girls who were still sleeping soundly in bed. Tang Man put on her coat and walked out of the room. She answered the phone and said, "Hello!"
"Excuse me, is Comrade Tang Man at home?"
Tang Man was stunned. She hadn't been back for a few days, so why would someone call her? Could they be here to buy skin care products?
"I am, that one?"
"Comrade Tang Man, I'm from the security department of the military compound. Someone is looking for you outside the door. She says she is your husband's mother."
"Please tell her that I'm busy right now, and if she wants to see me she has to wait half an hour."
After Tang Man hung up the phone, Xie Qian asked, "Sister-in-law, are you going out?"
"Yu Qin is here." Tang Man was sure that the person waiting outside was Yu Qin. If it was Zheng Chunying, she would say that she was Tang Man's mother-in-law instead of saying that she was Tang Man's husband's mother.
"Why is she here to see my sister-in-law? No, I'll call my brother and ask him to come over." Xie Qian walked to the phone and prepared to call home.
"No, your brother is very busy, don't disturb him." Tang Man smiled and pushed Xie Qian into the house. "Don't you know it's cold? Go back and put on your clothes and wash up. We'll go out after breakfast. After we meet her, we can go buy groceries."
After slowly washing up and having breakfast, Tang Man finally went out with Xie Qian, carrying a basket of vegetables.
On the way, Tang Man met many neighbors who were about to go out or coming back from outside, and he would stop to chat with them.
Yu Qin sat in the car waiting for nearly fifty minutes. Just when she was about to give up, she finally saw Tang Man and Xie Qian slowly walking to the door. She pushed open the car door and got out, waiting for Tang Man to come to see her, but saw Tang Man stopped inside the gate again, chatting with a white-haired old lady.
"You uneducated thing." Yu Qin clenched her fists, her face terribly gloomy. However, no matter how ugly her face looked, Tang Man did not run over to greet her.
Tang Man chatted with Mrs. Li for a few words and then walked to the door and asked the guard, "Hello! I'm Tang Man. You called me and said someone was looking for me. Is the person gone?"
The guard pointed at Yu Qin across the street and said, "Look! Over there."
"Thank you." Tang Man thanked the guard and walked out of the compound, but did not walk towards Yu Qin. He just quietly looked across the street at Yu Qin with a gloomy face.
Tang Man didn't see the person clearly yesterday afternoon, so now that she looked carefully, she realized that Yu Qin's appearance was really ugly.
"My father's eyesight must not be very good. He gave up his beautiful, gentle and generous childhood sweetheart and chose such a sharp-nosed and monkey-faced woman. Fortunately, my father's genes are strong enough, otherwise your brother would have grown up ugly."
