I hope you are a person of your word!
Sun Chengen's voice was icy, almost indifferent.
To avoid an argument between the two, the second brother got out of the car and gestured for Sun Chengen to move aside.
Facing the deep blue sea, the second brother explained gently, "Whenever my sister makes something delicious, what outsiders see is my third brother and I delivering it to Grandma Liu's house..."
“My older brother and sister-in-law reminded us, but that’s because my younger sister had prepared it in advance, and the food that Grandma Liu could eat was served separately. That’s why my older brother and sister-in-law saw it and reminded us.”
"What I want to say is, Young Master Sun, my sister is such a warm person, and she knows how to be grateful. When we first came to Nanxian, the Song family and the Fan family lived in thatched huts and dilapidated houses, but we were able to have a complete stone house, all thanks to Granny Liu."
"The weather was hot and humid, but the temperature difference between night and day was large. My older brother wasn't feeling well, and my younger sister had just fallen into the water. Grandma Liu gave us the quilts that were originally meant for her deceased son's wedding, and gave us sweet potatoes..."
"Without her, we might not have died. But she was the first elder who cared for us during our long journey."
"Although the village chief, the county magistrate, and the yamen runners were all very nice, we didn't get to spend much time together back then. You should have heard about our situation. Having seen so many sycophants and opportunists, you know how precious that quilt and that sweet potato were."
"My father is dead. In his lifetime, it will be very difficult for us to return to our hometown. To be honest, for a long time, I have been wondering, what is the purpose of our lives?"
"But I dare not think about anything else, because my older brother still needs me to take care of him, and I have my responsibilities to my younger sister. I believe that others think the same way."
"But do we live just to survive? And what is the meaning of living like that?"
"When I saw Granny Liu, I stopped thinking about that question. Compared to her, we are still young, able to have children, and have our own families. But what does she have? What expectations does she still have?"
"But she was like a rock, standing quietly on the beach, neither complaining nor pitying herself. Despite her own poverty, she still extended a helping hand to strangers..."
"Living may not have a meaning, but if it can inspire others to find meaning, then it's not a wasted life."
"My sister has the softest heart in the world. Like the young master, she is tough on the outside but soft on the inside. She must have cried many times in her heart, but she always bravely faces her brothers."
"I know, Young Master Sun, you're worried that your sister might get into trouble because of this, delaying her treatment..."
"But, Young Master Sun! If my sister weren't so loyal and devoted, would so many people be so devoted to her?"
"Isn't it precisely because she's this kind of person that Young Master Sun feels more at ease?"
"I used to be a timid person, always hesitant and afraid of causing trouble for my father and older brother. But after coming to the South Island, I realized that trouble can't be avoided just because it's unavoidable..."
"Only by having courage and improving our ability to handle troubles can we face the future with confidence."
"I don't know what my sister will do now or in the future, but I believe in her and that everything she does is right. Even if others may not think it's right, as her brother, I will always stand firmly by her side!"
"What the young master is worried about will not happen, because at any time, under any risk, I, as her older brother, will stand in front of her!"
The second son smiled gently, reverting to his simple and silly demeanor.
Sun Chengen's impression of his second brother was always that he was gentle, good-tempered, bullied by Ruan Meng, and a bit slow-witted...
After hearing these words, I gained a new understanding of him.
His expression softened slightly, and he tacitly agreed to Xiao Kai's suggestion, turning to look at A Yuan.
A Yuan understood and arranged for several guards to follow him. He traveled alone at night and arrived at the city gate just before dawn.
Ruan Qian, Ruan Yi, and others, upon hearing A Yuan's arrangement, silently bowed to Sun Chengen in gratitude.
Before the carriage started moving, Ruan Meng lifted the curtain without even glancing at Sun Chengen.
Speaking to her elder brother and sister-in-law, her voice softened slightly as she reminded them, "Brother and sister-in-law, if you don't know how to prepare the squid and mudskippers we caught while beachcombing tonight, you can have them boil noodles or fry some small fish..."
"Those who swim back from the sea should be exhausted and hungry. Third Brother gets hungry quickly, and since your wife can't help him, we can ask Sister-in-law Feng or Second Sister-in-law Feng for help..."
Although it was referring to people who swam back from the sea, everyone present, including those helping on the merchant ship, could tell the difference.
Sun Chengen, who had been expressionless, suddenly couldn't help but smile.
Ruan Yi is right, this guy is just like him, he responds better to gentle persuasion than force!
