Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 2222: Chapter 2216: Good Son

"Of course, someone with your taste should eat more. If you ever want something, just tell us. We’ll make sure you get it." Chu Molin felt grateful because Ye Xiao treated him so well. Many times he wondered what he would be like now if he hadn’t met Ye Xiao.

No matter how much he pondered, he found no answers because what happened had already happened, and there’s no way to turn back.

So, Ye Xiao simply wished to eat what he liked. Why couldn’t this desire be fulfilled?

"Good son." Ye Xiao said, his voice filled with emotion.

"Dad, Chu Molin is right. Whatever you want to eat, just tell me. If I can make it, I’ll cook it for you," Qin Xue responded, not upset with Chu Molin for making promises without consulting her, but instead, she supported his offer.

She was a grateful person. Although Ye Xiao hadn’t done anything for her directly, he’d been kind to her husband, so she wanted to do good by him.

"With you two as my children-in-law, I’ve hit the jackpot in this life," Ye Xiao said, looking at Chu Molin and Qin Xue, then glancing at the children. They were his greatest blessings in life.

"What are you saying? You need to live long and well. Ye Li hasn’t returned yet. Saying such things might hurt him if he heard them," Chu Molin didn’t want to hear Ye Xiao speak so wistfully. He hoped to see him around for a long time. Good people are destined to live long.

"I don’t know how Ye Li is doing now. I haven’t seen him in a long time. The holidays came, yet he didn’t return for a visit," Ye Xiao said, referring to his youngest son, who rarely stayed around him.

When his wife went missing, he had to work and look after his eldest son. Due to various reasons, he had no choice but to leave his child with his brother-in-law. This situation lasted for years, and he visited the child whenever he could. Years passed, the boy grew up, but he shared little bond with Ye Xiao.

Now the holidays were here, and he didn’t return for a visit, and Ye Xiao said nothing about it. He acknowledged he owed the boy. If the boy didn’t want to come back, Ye Xiao couldn’t force him.

Now, hearing Chu Molin bring him up, Ye Xiao thought whether he should find some time to visit the boy, or else he might not know him at all.

Meanwhile, Ye Li was busy packing, preparing to return to the Imperial Capital.

"Aunt Su Jin, I really don’t need more. Look at all the things I’m already carrying. It’s not like I’m not coming back. School will start, and I will be back," Ye Li said to his aunt Yin Sujin. Was this really necessary? He was only going back to see the old man, and this time Ye Zishu would be going along.

Speaking of Ye Zishu, originally Ye Li hadn’t planned on going to the Imperial Capital. But when she mentioned Qin Jiale and her brother were heading there to visit her sister, Ye Zishu asked him if he would return. If he did, she could go with him.

Although he initially didn’t want to go back, upon learning Qin Jiale was also going, he agreed without hesitation, leading to the current situation.

"Here are some snacks for the journey. Take these back for your dad. It’s been hard for him all these years. Don’t always think he doesn’t care about you.

He truly cares and loves you, but his work confined him. That’s why he couldn’t live with you, and he’s concerned about your safety. That’s why he let you stay with us. Don’t hold grudges against him. Go back and talk to him heart-to-heart, okay?" Yin Sujin felt unsure how best to convey her message to her nephew. The child grew up in their home, and she’d watched him grow. If anyone knew his temperament, how he thought, it was her.
