“Second brother,” when he had the accident, his second brother was only thirteen years old, still a child. The last thing he saw before he fell into a coma was his second brother grinning and running towards him, crying.
Sun Kaizhi is eighteen years old and has just been admitted to university. He is currently a freshman and is determined to make the most advanced wheelchair so that he can push his younger brother out to enjoy the sun every day.
"What about me? What about me?" A little girl poked her head out, trying to get her younger brother to see her.
"Second sister," my second sister has grown up too. Back then, she used to fight with me for food all the time.
Sun Cheng is fourteen years old this year and is the third child in her family. The names of the four siblings together mean "united as one," which means to fight for the victory of the motherland with one heart and one mind. This was Grandpa Sun's best hope for the motherland back then.
The old lady noticed that her grandson was a little tired: "Alright, you all go and get yourselves ready, let Xiao Si get some rest, we'll be taking him to the hospital to get checked out later."
"Sun Lei, call your in-laws and tell them that Xiao Si has woken up, so they can be happy too."
"Okay, I'll go right now."
Sun Lei, Sun Kaicheng's father, is the youngest son in the Sun family. After his youngest son's accident, they moved out of the compound and lived with his mother-in-law's family so that someone could take better care of their youngest son.
His wife is the only daughter in her family, and she can also take care of the elderly in their old age. Anyway, the Sun family has many sons, so they don't need another one to take care of the elderly. Now he is almost like a son-in-law who has moved in with his wife's family.
However, the Sun family all agreed. Their mother-in-law and father-in-law were also their parents, so wasn't it only right that they should take care of them in their old age?
Sun Kaicheng gave a slight smile, then couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep.
The old patriarch of the Sun family, who is also Sun Kaicheng's grandfather, was a founding general. Five years ago, although the new Longguo had been established for two or three years, it was still in chaos. As the youngest grandson of the Sun family, Sun Kaicheng was targeted by the enemy.
Those people originally planned to kidnap the child, make some demands, and if the other party didn't agree, they would send the child overseas to be trained as a spy or assassin, which would be perfect for dealing with the Sun family.
The plan failed, and the group retaliated, only managing to injure Sun Kaicheng's head before fleeing, unable to take him with them. That day, Sun Kaicheng's maternal grandmother had taken her four children out to play; no one expected such a thing to happen.
From that day on, the old lady was consumed by self-blame. For so many years, she blamed herself, and her health deteriorated. If it weren't for taking care of her youngest grandson, the old lady would have fallen ill long ago.
After that day, Grandpa Sun asked his youngest son and daughter-in-law to move to his mother-in-law's house. Firstly, his family members were all busy, and they were not comfortable hiring someone to take care of their grandson.
Another reason is that the in-laws are worried and feel guilty about this. They can't see the child and are constantly worried, which only makes their illness worse. They think it would be better to put the old lady and the child together and hire someone to take care of them.
Besides, the in-laws only have one daughter, and their own family doesn't lack sons. It would be better to let their younger son and his wife go and take care of the in-laws in their old age, which would put the in-laws at ease.
Despite Sun Kaicheng being in a coma for five years, no one in his family has forgotten the child. The political maneuvering ultimately only hurts this child, and every adult feels terrible about it. They would come in batches during holidays to see the child who is still asleep.
In this day and age, the fact that this family can take such good care of someone who has been in a coma for five years shows that they are all of very good character.
The whole family hurriedly got themselves together. Those who were in school or working took leave, just wanting to accompany their youngest son (brother) to the hospital. They hoped that their youngest son (brother) wouldn't sleep so peacefully anymore, because it always pained their hearts to see him like that.
After they left the hospital, it was as if the dark cloud hanging over their family had instantly dissipated. Everyone had a genuine smile on their face. It was wonderful; their little brother would never again lie quietly like a puppet.
Sun Kaicheng also forced a smile. It's good that he's finally back.
Of course, Qian Xiao knew nothing about any of this. She had no idea that her space was borrowed by the small system and that it already had an owner.
If she knew, she probably wouldn't dare to use it so casually, much less put all her wealth in someone else's space.
After the autumn harvest, it was time to go to the commune to distribute the grain, and Qian Xiao begged her second and third uncles to take her with them.
"I will definitely obey. As long as I pay the grain tax, you can take me to the scrap metal recycling station."
Second Uncle was a man of few words, but Third Uncle was not: "What are you going to the scrap yard for? It's all junk there, what's the point of going there? If you want something, tell Third Uncle, and Third Uncle will bring it back for you, okay?"
"No, I want to go myself, Uncle. I don't know what I want, but I want to choose it myself."
Could she say she wanted to buy scrap metal? Of course not! If she dared to say that, her mother would beat her up. Who has that kind of spare money to buy scrap metal to play with at home?
"It's not that your third uncle doesn't want to take you, but delivering grain is hard work. You'll have to stand in line in this blazing sun. What if you get sunburned?"
“It’s alright, I’ll wear a straw hat. Besides, this isn’t the first time our cows have been to the commune. If I go with them, they’ll behave better.”
The two calves were probably born last year. They've been well-fed these past few months, and now they look strong and healthy. They've helped a lot during the autumn harvest.
However, bison are bison, not as docile and obedient as domestic cattle. Qian Xiao always has to follow along when they work, otherwise the two of them will cause trouble. The village chief is now waiting for these two calves to grow up so they can breed and produce strong offspring.
Animals are just like people. If you are honest, they will bully you; if you are powerful, they will fear you. Anyway, my two cows are afraid of Qian Xiao. They are probably scared of Qian Xiao. They are really the most obedient in front of Qian Xiao and will do whatever he asks.
Qian Sanbao (Qian Sanshu's name) thought it was a good idea. In case the two calves went crazy on the way, his eldest niece could control them: "Okay, go talk to your grandparents. If they agree, they'll take you."
Qian Xiao immediately agreed. Her grandparents were hesitant to agree, and soon the old couple nodded in agreement, making Qian Xiao very happy.
In the middle of the night, Qian Xiao was woken up by his mother: "Erdan, get up quickly, aren't you going to the commune with us?"
Qian Xiao groggily opened her eyes and glanced outside: "Mom, it's not even dawn yet, let me sleep a little longer."
Li Guizhi slapped her daughter's bottom: "What are you sleeping for? If you keep sleeping, everyone will leave. You'll regret it when you get up."
Thinking about the purpose of her trip to the commune today, Qian Xiao reluctantly sat up. If she had known it was so early, she would have changed the date. Considering that her family rarely went to the commune, she didn't know when the next time would be.
