Chapter 1164: Chapter 1164: The Matter



Now that they were at Zhao Qingjie’s doorstep, Hai Jun went straight in without hesitation.


At this moment, they were having a meal. Seeing his nephews, Zhao Qingjie said, "Hai Jun, Hai Feng, come up and eat."


"Second Uncle, we already ate before coming over."


After Hai Jun spoke, he looked at Zhao Yanli and her husband, "Aunt, I’m here to find you. When you and Uncle leave, take the two of us with you. We’re going back."


Zhang Fusheng sighed in his heart. What a mess this is?


"Alright, we’ll leave tomorrow morning."


"Thank you, Uncle. We’ll come over tomorrow morning."


Zhao Yanli put down her bowl and chopsticks and put on her shoes.


She took Hai Jun outside, and in the courtyard, she saw Xu Hongbing.


"Hai Jun, are you sure about your decision?"


"Aunt, if it weren’t for you asking me to come back this time, I wouldn’t have returned.


Now I already know, and I don’t want to think about it anymore. I won’t come back in the future.


Also, Aunt, could you call Aunt Yuan Yuan and ask her to lend me a thousand yuan? After all these years, I’d like to repay them for the food and everything I’ve used."


Zhao Yanli patted Hai Jun, "Are you stupid? I’m telling you, you’ll never be able to repay their kindness in your lifetime. Without them, you wouldn’t even be in this world.


Stop overthinking. As harsh as it sounds, even if you repay the money now, in the future, when they can’t move, you’ll still have to take care of them.


You’re still young and don’t understand this, but you’ll understand when you grow older. Don’t overthink it.


If you want to go back, then go back, but Hai Jun, you have to face things, this isn’t something you can run away from."


Hai Jun nodded, "Aunt, I understand. I will leave with you."


Zhao Yanli nodded, the child had grown up and couldn’t accept such things.


Hai Jun took Hai Feng’s hand and went back inside, said a word, and then left.


Xu Hongbing still followed behind his two brothers, unsure how to talk to them.


Hai Feng was easier to talk to, being younger. But Hai Jun might hold this grudge for a lifetime.


After getting home, the two brothers went into their room, cleaned up, and lay down.


"Big brother, can I sleep with you?"


Hai Jun held his younger brother, "Sleep now, tomorrow we’re going back. This holiday you must learn all the first-grade characters."


"What about third sister?"


"Your third sister will come back after the holidays. You can wait for her at home."


Besides Hai Feng, Hai Jun liked Little Hong the most.


If it wasn’t for Little Hong, he couldn’t have gone to school because he had to care for his younger brother. Luckily, there was Little Hong.


"Big brother, I want to stay with third sister."


"Hai Feng, your third sister can only leave around the New Year, don’t you want to leave?"


Hai Feng shook his head, "I miss my third sister."


"Hai Feng, don’t you want to leave? Don’t you want to go home?"


"Big brother, I just miss my third sister."


Hai Jun felt truly helpless. He really didn’t want to stay, couldn’t bear to look at them.


What Aunt said today he had thought about as well, he was really determined. In the future, he would repay them the money, care for them, but that’s all he could do.


Hai Feng held his big brother’s hand tightly, he really missed his third sister.


In another room, Xu Hongbing lay down without saying a word, his face full of sadness.


Zhao Xiaojing was like this; today, seeing the children made her start resenting Xu Hongbing again, thinking of how he had wronged her, always with a sullen face, not caring about the two kids.


But she couldn’t stand seeing Xu Hongbing in such a beaten manner.


Seeing him lying there so sadly without a word made her heart ache.


"Don’t be like this, the kids will be fine in the future."


Xu Hongbing said nothing, just looked sadly at Zhao Xiaojing.


Zhao Xiaojing softened even more. "I’ll talk to Hai Jun tomorrow. I’ve forgiven you, what’s he still troubled about?"


"Xiaojing, you’re pregnant, don’t get angry. I understand Hai Jun. He’ll be fine in the future. I need to give him time. After all, I really hurt him."


"Alright, sure."


"Just now, Hai Jun went to see Xiao Li. He might want her to go back together.


I’ll prepare all the grains for them tomorrow morning, let your brother-in-law take it back."


"Alright then, you milled so much flour, give them extra."


"I know, and give them more salted duck eggs that we have at home, I’ll cook them in a bit, it’s easier to take when they’re cooked, I’ll cook for both families as well."


"You handle it."


In the middle of the night, Hai Jun woke up to see dad sitting beside him watching them.


He turned over and continued to sleep. He knew he shouldn’t be like this, but he just couldn’t get over this hurdle, hadn’t made sense of it yet.


"Hai Jun, remember, in this world, you will always be my son."


The next day, Xu Hongbing cooked breakfast but didn’t eat it, he went to Zhao Qingjie’s house.


He saw Zhang Fusheng in the courtyard, "Brother-in-law, I’ve prepared all the grains for Hai Jun and his brother. You or Xiao Bing help bring it back in a bit."


Zhang Fusheng nodded, "Okay. I’ll drive over to load it after breakfast."


Back home, they hadn’t eaten, waiting for him.


Now, a smile appeared on his face. "Let’s eat."


At Zhao Qingjie’s place, they were having breakfast. Zhao Yanli looked at her mother serving her second brother’s family like a servant, gave a cold laugh, she chose this herself, nothing anyone says would change that.


After breakfast, the food Zhao Qingjie prepared for his son was loaded onto the car. This time, they brought a lot of corn.


Zhao Yanli sneered again, "Zhixue is studying outside so hard, didn’t the family prepare fine grains for the kids this year?"


Zhao Qingjie and Qi Xuemei blushed, trying to follow the elders’ wishes, showing they could manage their lives well. So, they brought mostly corn this time.


Zhao Tian heard this, and the anger from the past couple of days rose up again.


"Isn’t corn food? Do you come back just to stir up trouble?"


Zhao Yanli sneered again, "Yes, I’m so unwelcome here. I won’t come back in the future."


"Fine, it doesn’t matter whether you’re here or not."


"That’s great, don’t come looking for me in the future when there’s something." In such a messy house, she really didn’t feel like staying.


Zhao Tian was retorted like this. He got angry immediately.


The words he was about to say swallowed back down. He knew his eldest daughter’s temper, if things got too stiff, she really wouldn’t come back.


At this time, Zhao Qingxiang also came over, seeing them loading the car over here. He handed money to Zhang Fusheng, "I’ve also got the grains ready. I’ll load them in a bit too."


Zhang Fusheng nodded, "I’ll first go to Xiaojing’s to load, then I’ll be over."
