Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1126: Chapter 1126: Persuasion

Suddenly, Xu Hongbing came back. And the two of them were together again.

"Xiao Jing, I’m serious, I’m sorry for you and the children. You also have this child, so we’re even.

It’s too hard to live on your own. Being together is best for both you and me, and for the children.

I won’t say I’ll be very good to this child, but I won’t abuse him either."

Zhao Xiaojing still didn’t speak, pondering Xu Hongbing’s words. What he said made sense; he accepted this Liantang.

Xu Hongbing was extremely tired, but he knew he had to make Zhao Xiaojing agree, so he could live here and be with his son.

Therefore, he acted again, and during the process managed to make Zhao Xiaojing agree.

Afterward, Xu Hongbing carried her to another room, and the two snuggled into one quilt.

Zhao Xiaojing hugged him. He truly had lost a lot of weight, although he was never fat before, but he had never been this thin.

Xu Hongbing embraced Zhao Xiaojing, knowing he couldn’t sleep now.

"Xiao Jing, where are Haijun and Haifeng?"

"At school."

"Haifeng went too?"

"Will be starting school soon." Zhao Xiaojing remained very indifferent. Although she had agreed, she was still conflicted inside.

How to explain to the family?

"Xiao Jing, where are dad, mom, and elder brother?"

"Elder brother is living in Yuanyuan’s previous courtyard, Second Brother is in our old house."

"Xiao Jing, let’s go find mom and dad later. I’ll apologize to the old couple on my knees, even if they beat me to death, I’ll accept it."

Zhao Xiaojing could not bear hearing Xu Hongbing say such things, so she hugged him tightly.

Where Zhao Xiaojing couldn’t see, Xu Hongbing wore a smile on his face.

Neither of them slept, they got up together and cooked.

When Liantang woke up, Zhao Xiaojing looked after him while Xu Hongbing watched from the side. Truth be told, this child looked quite good.

After the three finished eating, Xu Hongbing cleaned up. This kind of chore was something he had never done before.

Zhao Xiaojing felt a bittersweet sensation inside. She didn’t know how to describe it.

Let it be, living her own life, it’s just about informing the family.

Once tidied up, Xu Hongbing held Liantang, and the three went out together.

"Mom and Dad are living with Second Brother now, let’s go there."

Xu Hongbing had no objections; it was the same everywhere, but they must pass today’s hurdle.

Zhao Xiaojing had already made up her mind. Life was hers, since Xu Hongbing came back wanting to live together and could accept Liantang, they would live together.

Along the way, Xu Hongbing looked at everything here. Previously, he thought it was too bitter here. Only after arriving elsewhere did he realize what true bitterness was.

He had thought about it for a long time, there was no other choice but to live on the farm.

Once at the old home, Xu Hongbing squinted, nothing had changed here. It was still the same, but now it wasn’t his home anymore. But it didn’t matter.

In these years outside, he understood nothing was important, as long as one could live well.

He was already over thirty years old, and didn’t want to face uncared for old age.

He had once thought of not bothering them, but the hard life made him realize that he should cherish what was his.

Zhao Xiaojing opened the door and called out for mom and dad.

An Lixia was feeding pigs, hearing her daughter’s voice, she turned her head and was shocked. Xu Hongbing had returned, and he was holding Liantang.

Zhao Xiaojing also saw her mom, feeling indifferent. Has she realized it now? Before, at elder sister-in-law’s, these were all done by her, but now only she did these.

"Xu Hongbing, why did you come back?" An Lixia shouted in surprise.

Xu Hongbing, holding Liantang, walked to An Lixia’s side and knelt with a thud. "Mom, I was wrong, I was wrong, I will certainly be good to Xiao Jing in the future."

The three people inside also heard the commotion. They hurriedly got down from the bed when they heard Xu Hongbing’s name.

They came out to see Xu Hongbing kneeling on the ground.

Zhao Qingjie rushed over and kicked Xu Hongbing hard. "You dare come to my house?"

Xu Hongbing was indeed skinny, and holding the child, he directly fell from Zhao Qingjie’s kick. Even as the child cried loudly, he didn’t let go.

Zhao Xiaojing rushed over to block in front of Xu Hongbing, "Second Brother."

"Move aside, I’m going to kill him."

"Second Brother, don’t be like this, don’t be like this, I still want to be with Xu Hongbing."

Zhao Qingjie looked at his sister in disbelief. "What? You still want to continue living with him?"

"Second Brother, it’s too hard living alone, and other men may not treat the children well. Xu Hongbing is back and said he would be good to Liantang, after all, he is Haijun and their father.

Mom, Dad, don’t be angry anymore, I came here to let you know that I intend to live together with Xu Hongbing again."

Qi Xue Mei held back Zhao Qingjie, who was about to rush over again. The parents did not intervene. What are you, his brother, acting impulsively for?

This second nun was known to be simple-minded; treating her well might not earn gratitude, perhaps even resentment.

With his wife holding him back, Zhao Qingjie halted, "Xiao Jing, you just forgave him like that? Want to live together again?"

Looking at Second Brother’s furious demeanor, Zhao Xiaojing still stood in front of Xu Hongbing. "Yes, we want to live together."

Zhao Tian watched from the side, sighed, knowing his daughter was already a mother of three. As long as she was willing, what could anyone do?

At this point, Xu Hongbing climbed back up as well, soothing the child. He continued holding the child, "Mom, Dad, Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law, I will never wrong Xiao Jing from now on. Rest assured, this experience has taught me a lesson.

Moreover, it’s too tough for Xiao Jing living alone. I want to support this family for her.

Rest assured, I will certainly be good to Xiao Jing and the children." He could only repeatedly promise this.

Zhao Tian sighed again, "You are not young anymore. In the end, the days ahead are yours; think carefully about them."

His daughter’s words were right, Xu Hongbing was, after all, Haijun and their father, better than bringing in a stranger. Seeing him holding Liantang...

"Xu Hongbing, what about the child in your arms?"

Xu Hongbing lowered his head, "Dad, this child, I won’t say I’ll treat him like Haijun and them, but I won’t neglect him or abuse him."

All four of them understood now. Xu Hongbing knew the child wasn’t his.

Which was normal, considering the child didn’t resemble him at all, and barely resembled Xiao Jing.

"Xiao Jing, are you really clear on this?"

Zhao Xiaojing looked at her parents, brother, and sister-in-law, nodded firmly. "We will live together; I’m tired of being alone. Being alone for everything is too difficult, I don’t want that life. I desire days where someone stands up for me."
