Shiyue's worries did not come true.
About half an hour later, He Siyi and his son came to the ward.
As soon as He Si entered, he told Shi Yue that he had no objection to He Lixuan marrying into the family.
He wished the newlyweds happiness and peace in their future days.
He added that although his wife had not yet woken up, she would be very happy to hear the news when she did, and she would definitely like Shiyue very much.
Shiyue never expected things to go so smoothly!
She was initially worried that the two elders wouldn't understand.
Faced with He Siyi's blessing, she could only smile shyly, completely unsure of what to do.
His decisive and intelligent demeanor before made him seem like a completely different person.
Seeing Shiyue like this, He Siyi's gaze softened even more. He patted his son's shoulder with emotion and told him to cherish it.
After saying all that, He Si also announced his decision.
He said he and his wife would not go with Shiyue and the others.
He thanked Shiyue for accompanying his mentally challenged son, who disregarded everything else and traveled so far to see them.
He also criticized Shiyue for being lenient.
He said that He Lixuan was impulsive and straightforward, and that Shiyue should keep an eye on him to prevent him from acting recklessly again!
He Si also said that he and his wife would stay here for two more days, and they would go back to the cadre school after his wife woke up.
Let Shiyue and the others pack up and go back too.
Knowing that the two of them were doing well put his mind at ease.
This is completely different from what Shiyue expected!
Shi Yue looked up in surprise at He Lixuan, who was standing silently to the side.
They discovered that the person's lips were almost bitten through!
This was clearly not what he wanted, and he did not approve of his father's decision.
However, he most likely has no way of persuading the old man.
Shiyue thought for a moment and asked, "Uncle, aren't you going to treat Auntie's illness? Auntie's illness can't be cured at the town hospital."
The smile on He Siyi's lips disappeared.
He was silent for a moment before saying with some difficulty, "Shiyue, do you still have the medicine you gave us earlier? If so, could you give us some more?"
Shiyue shook her head: "No more."
She glanced at He Lixuan and then said, "As you know, we came from Pingjiang. It's over a thousand kilometers from Pingjiang to here, and we brought a lot of things with us. Like the medicine we gave you today, it was just something we prepared casually, and we didn't expect it to work."
"That's all I had He Lixuan take over; there's nothing left."
He Siyi's face turned ashen again.
But he had clearly anticipated this, so he quickly regained his composure.
He forced a smile at Shiyue and said, "This is already very good. I read the instructions for those medicines, and two of them have analgesic effects. This is very good, very good. Your aunt and I are still blessed."
While he was speaking, Shiyue carefully examined his face.
Then they discovered that there were no traces left on He Siyi's face after applying the medicine.
She immediately understood that the old man wanted to leave all the medicine to his wife, and he couldn't bear to use it himself!
But she hadn't forgotten what the old doctor had said yesterday.
The old doctor said that the herpes on the face and eyes is much more painful than when it's on the body!
She looked at He Lixuan again.
He Lixuan finally spoke at this moment.
He said, "My dad didn't want to be a burden to us. Also, he said that the teachers at the cadre school were brought here by him, and he couldn't abandon them."
“But even if Uncle goes back, he can’t control them. Uncle himself can’t even take care of himself, can he?” Shiyue blurted out.
Although it sounds harsh, it's the truth.
Given the current situation of He Siyi and his wife, even if they go back, they will definitely be quarantined. So who can they help?
“That’s not how it is.” He Siyi closed his eyes painfully: “If we don’t go back, many people will feel completely abandoned, and they will lose the will to live.”
Shiyue learned from the narrative that Jiannan University was among the first batch of schools to decide that all its teachers would come to the cadre school for re-education.
The person who made this decision was He Siyi.
He Siyi was the first to sense the change in the environment through various clues. He realized that if these teachers did not take some action, things might not be good for them!
So despite the opposition of many people, he resolutely made this decision!
But He Siyi made her decision too late.
During their preparations, some of the institute's senior professors and teachers were arrested one after another, labeled with different social classes for various reasons.
After being identified as bad elements, the teachers' families also suffered.
But it was also because of He Siyi's decision that the first batch of teachers were able to get there quickly.
Many people were demoted before they were caught by those crazy "petty soldiers," thus temporarily escaping the misfortune of being "capped."
Whether or not these elderly people wear hats, it may not change their current suffering, but it at least gives their families a chance to catch their breath.
They won't be labeled with stigmas like "bastard."
The reason why He Lixuan has not been affected in the brigade is simply because his parents' social status has not changed for the time being.
If his parents were identified as bad elements, and the notice reached the commune, He Lixuan's good days, including Yu Chuxia's, would be completely over!
Moreover, the teachers currently in the cadre school regard He Siyi as their backbone.
They were grateful to the former principal for making the right judgment at the most critical moment.
So even though life is tough right now, they can still encourage and support each other to keep going!
If He Siyi and the others leave at this point, what will those who stay think?
They may lose the confidence and courage to live because they feel completely abandoned.
After hearing He Siyi's explanation, Shiyue was moved but did not agree.
She said bluntly, "Uncle, the biggest danger you and Auntie will pose to us is staying at the cadre school. You might even drag us, and my eldest brother and second brother, down with you!"
He Si suddenly raised his head: "Second Brother?"
He then abruptly turned to look at his son: "Your second brother has been found?"
"Yes." He Lixuan said, "Shiyue helped me find it, but I haven't had a chance to tell you yet."
He Siyi's expression became a mixture of emotions.
When she looked at Shiyue again, her gratitude was almost overflowing.
Shiyue would not give him another chance to say thank you.
It's already past seven o'clock!
If this continues, what time will He Lixuan finally arrive at the cadre school?
She couldn't allow her unmarried man to pose a threat on the road.
She immediately said, "Uncle, we'll talk about my second brother's matter later. I'll tell you in detail later. Let's talk about your matter first."
