After seeing off the last visitor, Qin Wan felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders. He slumped in his chair, his entire body seemingly drained of all strength.
At this time, Aunt Yu led the quadruplets through the door. As soon as they entered, they saw Qin Wan's appearance and couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Look at you, kid. You're so tired just chatting with people. You look more tired than going up the mountain to collect firewood or going down the river to fish."
There was a hint of teasing and a hint of heartache in Aunt Yu's words.
She poured a glass of water, walked slowly to Qin Wan, and gently handed it to Qin Wan.
Qin Wan forced a smile and nodded.
Yes, compared with the actual physical work, these insincere greetings and responses made her feel exhausted.
In this family compound, everyone has their own plans, and every conversation is like a war without the smoke of gunpowder, requiring constant vigilance and careful action.
"Aunt Yu, why is it so difficult for people to get along with each other?" Qin Wan frowned slightly and couldn't help but sigh softly.
Her beautiful eyes were filled with confusion at this moment, as if she was lost in the fog of complex interpersonal relationships.
When Aunt Yu heard Qin Wan's words, a gentle smile appeared on her face, and she said comfortingly:
"Xiao Qin, don't think like that. You should think like this:
These people around us are so welcoming! As soon as I arrived, they gave me so many things. What does this mean? It means I'm quite welcome here!
If you look at these things from a different perspective, you won’t feel so tired.”
Qin Wan listened to Aunt Yu's words, pondered them carefully, and couldn't help but laugh: "Oh, it's true, I'm narrow-minded! You're right, Aunt Yu, I can't just see the bad, I have to think more about the good side."
As she spoke, her mood seemed to lighten up a lot.
When Qin Wan looked up, he saw so many things on the table and asked again:
"Aunt Yu, should we accept all the things they sent us? Do we need to send some back? After all, they are kind enough to do this, so we can't just take them for nothing..."
As she spoke, she looked at the gifts piled on the table and on the floor.
There were fresh eggs, attractively colored bacon, vermicelli of uniform thickness, a pile of dried seafood that exuded the scent of the ocean, and so on.
Although these things seem very ordinary, in this era of relative material scarcity, food is the most precious and rare thing, and these are all heavy favors.
Aunt Yu was silent for a moment and then said, "Keep them. These gifts are valuable enough. If we don't keep them and send them back, people might get suspicious. So, how about this? Let's find some time to cook a table of delicious food and invite them over for a meal."
Aunt Yu said with a smile.
Qin Wan nodded. Treating everyone to a meal was a good idea. After all, since they had just arrived, they should show their respect.
Seeing that she had come to her senses, Aunt Yu stood up and prepared to leave:
"Well, now that they've all left, you can rest assured and have a good rest. I'm going to take these kids out for a walk and see the world."
After saying this, Aunt Yu turned around and left.
It was not until Aunt Yu's back gradually disappeared from sight that Qin Wan quickly slipped into his own mysterious space like a nimble cat.
As soon as he entered the space, Qin Wan couldn't wait to walk to the spring, squatted down, gently scooped up the clear and transparent spring water that exuded a faint spiritual energy with both hands, and drank it in big gulps.
The cool and sweet spiritual spring water slid down her throat into her stomach, as if a stream of clear spring water flowed through the meridians of her body, making her feel comfortable all over, and the feeling of fatigue was instantly swept away.
After drinking the spiritual spring water, Qin Wan found a comfortable spot on the grass to lie down, closed his eyes, and quietly enjoyed this rare tranquility and relaxation.
Time passed minute by minute. After an unknown amount of time, when Qin Wan opened his eyes again, he felt refreshed and energetic, and his whole body was radiating a different kind of brilliance.
After a good rest, Qin Wan stood up contentedly, dusted off his body, and then walked out of the space.
At this moment, her face was rosy, her skin was as delicate as silk, her eyes were bright and moving, and she was as beautiful as a blooming flower.
Before I knew it, it was noon.
Just as the family was sitting around the dining table preparing to enjoy lunch, Lu Yu also rushed back exhausted.
He was all smiles, and he enthusiastically told everyone about his experience in the army that morning. It turned out that the situation he encountered in the army was very similar to what Qin Wan had encountered before.
Hearing this, Qin Wan couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, and Lu Yu couldn't help laughing either.
After laughing, Qin Wan sighed again. She really didn't like this kind of crowded situation.
Lu Yu said:
"This is the way the world is. Human relationships change, the world is fickle, and human feelings are warm and cold. However, no matter how chaotic the outside world is, as long as you guard your own heart and don't let irrelevant people and things affect your judgment and mood, that's enough."
After hearing this, Qin Wan nodded gently, then turned her gaze to Lu Yu and said slowly, "Aunt Yu also advised me in the same way just now. Although your words are different, the meanings behind them are roughly the same."
Then, she turned around and said to her aunt with a smile, "Aunt Yu, you really see things very clearly!"
Aunt Yu's face was filled with a kind smile, and she waved her hand and replied:
