Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1254: Chapter 1254: Departure

Sun Yun asked cautiously, she just had this feeling. It would be hard to see their family in the future.

Su Yuanyuan nodded with a smile, "Yes, we’re just traveling around, going north when it’s hot, heading south when it’s cold."

"Really can’t bear to part with you."

Su Yuanyuan chuckled. "That really can’t be determined.

Sister-in-law, keep the phone numbers and names and address that I gave you. If Xiao Ling needs them in the future, she can contact any of them."

"Alright, I’ve remembered. I’m hoping my young woman can go to the Capital for school."

"As long as she works hard, she can do it."

After finishing the meal, the family returned home. After living here for a month, Su Yuanyuan and Tan Shaoting could say they let go.

Their fate here was over, there were no ties holding them.

The next day, their family packed their belongings, stopped the car outside Zhao Qingxiang’s house, said a simple goodbye, and drove away.

The happiest was Qi Wen, finally leaving this place.

"Mom, are we heading south next?"

"Yes, we’ll go and have a look, then live on the mountain for a while. You can experience the Taoists’ lifestyle and see how it’s different from yours."

"Mom, what are you thinking? Our life isn’t at a Daoist Temple; it’s a Sect."

"Isn’t it all about practicing Taoism?"

Qi Wen was stumped, it really was all about practicing Taoism.

After leaving the farm, Qi Wen led Qi Hao and Qi Xuan into the space.

The remaining four didn’t feel cramped anymore.

On the farm, Zhao Qingjie rushed to his elder brother’s house after seeing the car leave.

"Sister-in-law, did Su Yuanyuan’s family leave?"

Sun Yun nodded, "Yes, they mentioned briefly and left."

Zhao Qingjie turned and left with a self-mocking smile. He thought of inviting their family to dinner, but they left without saying goodbye.

When he got home, he saw his father sitting under the eaves.

"Dad, Su Yuanyuan’s family left."

"Left?"

"Yes, I just asked my sister-in-law, she said they mentioned briefly and left."

"Leaving is normal. Qing Jie, you should start packing, we’ll leave in a few days."

"Dad, I’m really worried about you staying alone in the old house."

"It’s okay, if I pass away, there are people to take care of it. Just send me back, if you don’t want to, call your big brother. You brothers can call the sisters, remember you invited your mom and me together. Now you all send us back."

Zhao Tian has been thinking about this recently, going back is fine, he can hold a ceremony for the wife at home.

Zhao Qingjie frowned, "My big brother can’t come, my sister-in-law is about to give birth. Xiao Li and the two of them don’t have time; they have work."

"Haha, I raised you all this time, and when I need you, you make excuses?"

"Dad, don’t say that, I’ll send you in a few days."

"Second, you’re being foolish. Working at the cement factory now is tiring, but have you thought about the future?

You can retire, the country will support you then.

But working here now means you earn a bit more, but how many years can you work? How will life be when you’re old?

Formal jobs are sought after by many, and you’re complaining here?"

"Dad, it’s too late to say anything now, Su Yuanyuan’s family left."

"If you want to go back, find your elder brother. I think he might be able to find Su Yuanyuan; if not, go find Xiao Li.

Second, think about this, your wife might not want you to leave here.

Once you’re at our home, she won’t be so tough."

After speaking, Zhao Tian continued smoking, which he had only just understood these past few days.

Zhao Qingjie also sat next to his dad, realizing what his dad was saying made sense. Formal jobs have future labor security; even if one can’t depend on sons, the country supports them.

The current youth could work for years, but what about later? Now Zhao Qingjie was tempted.

"Dad, I’ll go find my elder brother."

Zhao Qingxiang was packing corn baskets at home and saw Second coming again, wondering what the matter was?

"Elder brother, sister-in-law, can you reach Su Yuanyuan?

Dad just asked me to send him back. I’m worried about him being home alone. Otherwise, I’ll go back to live at the old house."

Zhao Qingxiang shook his head, "I don’t know, I only know they went south."

"How about you, sister-in-law?"

Sun Yun nodded, "Yuanyuan told me, if you brothers want to leave, just make a call, they’ll arrange it over there."

Sun Yun thought Yuanyuan was indeed clear-headed. She expected Second wouldn’t leave, but it turned out Yuanyuan guessed right.

"Sister-in-law, give me the phone number."

"Wait, husband, go inside and copy a version for Second."

Zhao Qingjie took the phone number and left, thinking he’d make the call once the cotton was harvested in a couple of days.

The couple continued their work, "Do you think Second figured it out?"

Zhao Qingxiang didn’t want to discuss siblings’ matters, so he just nodded.

"Zhao Qingxiang, do you want to go back? I’ll ask you again, fearing you might regret it later."

Zhao Qingxiang shook his head, "I’m not going back, I want to earn to support my three young women’s studies. You have another in your stomach, that salary and grain can’t support their education."

Sun Yun nodded, "Alright, don’t regret it in the future."

Zhao Qingjie returned home and told his dad.

"Make the call quickly. People move on, take advantage while Su Yuanyuan hasn’t been away long, it’s normal if they don’t care after a long delay."

Zhao Qingjie nodded and sat down to peel corn. He thought if he was leaving, all the corn at home needed to be shelled quickly and converted to money, as it couldn’t be taken back.

In the afternoon, Qi Xue Mei came back from her parents’ home. Zhao Qingjie told her he was leaving.

"What about me?"

"In the future, I’ll go to work, while you work at home, it’s good this way."

"Good indeed? I don’t want that."

Zhao Qingjie ignored her, having already decided.

Qi Xue Mei looked at him and knew he was steadfast.

"Zhao Qingjie, just like that? If you can’t make any money, how do you raise two sons? How do you support me?"

"You dislike that I can’t earn money?"

Qi Xue Mei didn’t speak.

"If you dislike me, you don’t have to go, I’ll take the two sons back."

Qi Xue Mei teared up, "Are you abandoning me?"

Zhao Qingjie shook his head, "Not abandoning, mainly you don’t want to go back, and I have to."

Qi Xue Mei rushed out the door, crying. She slowed down after leaving the house, unable to return to her parents due to her siblings-in-law disliking her.

No choices left, she turned and went to Zhao Qingxiang’s house.

Sun Yun lay on the bed, peeling corn day after day, her back ached badly, she finally lay down unable to bear it anymore.
