Xiao's mother was unusually serious, and she deliberately emphasized the word "only" when she spoke, to emphasize that no matter how high Xiao Hechuan climbed in the future, he would only be allowed to have Jiang Sui as his woman.
She stood by Jiang Sui unconditionally, and the words she said really moved Jiang Sui.
But, matters of the heart cannot be forced, just leave the rest to fate and do your best!
Xiao Hechuan looked at Jiang Sui deeply, then nodded solemnly to Xiao's mother:
"Mom, I listen to you. In this life, Jiang Sui is my only one!"
Just because she saved all his relatives, he, Xiao Hechuan, could not let her down.
Thinking of what happened in his previous life, Xiao Hechuan didn't want to think about it anymore. In his previous life, he was just like the previous one. He accidentally fell and became stupid. Until this earthquake happened, his parents died in order to protect him, and were crushed under the collapsed mountain.
His three brothers, two sisters-in-law and six-year-old nephew were not spared and were left in the disaster forever because they did not evacuate in time.
His sister, whose leg was broken by a huge rock while escaping, spent her whole life in depression. She was criticized for her fate, and because of the loss of a leg, she locked herself in the room all day and refused to see anyone. Even though she went through a lot of hardships and finally reached the top of the mountain, it could not heal her heart. She died of illness and depression when she was less than 30 years old.
He was the only one who did not die in the disaster. Instead, he returned to normal by chance.
All his family members were killed, leaving only him and his disabled sister. He fled all the way to Jeju with his sister, and survived with great difficulty.
Many things that happened later were not what he had hoped for or wished for. In short, only he and Lanlan at that time knew how sad and difficult the journey was, how hard they had been beaten by reality, and how humiliated they had suffered.
But all his lifelong regrets and resentment were due to this disaster. He lost his most precious family. He woke up from nightmares many times in the middle of the night, but was powerless and could only taste the feeling of powerlessness and heartache alone.
It was not until his sister died that he looked at the wealth, fame and fortune he had fought so hard for and realized that all his efforts in life were meaningless.
The reason why he wanted to study hard and take the imperial examination was just to give his family a better life, to fulfill his father and mother's wishes, and to make their Xiao family a family of scholars and literati, instead of digging for food in the fields like his ancestors for generations.
In his previous life, he held a high position in the government, but he could only enjoy the honor alone. After Lanlan's death, he became depressed and drank all day long to drown his sorrows. Not long after, he developed a heart disease. When he was dying, what he could not let go of the most was still the misfortune brought to him by this disaster, so much so that he died with his eyes open.
But unexpectedly, perhaps God took pity on him and gave him a chance to start over, allowing him to be reborn in his youth.
This time, the relatives are still alive, they have all escaped the disaster and are alive and well, and all this is thanks to the girl Jiang Sui.
It was she who saved their family and made up for his regrets in his previous life. Therefore, he, Xiao Hechuan, could never repay her for what he owed her in this life. The only thing he could do was to take good care of her and let her live a happy and carefree life.
Also, this time, he wanted his family to live the good life that they failed to enjoy in their previous life.
Jiang Sui felt a little embarrassed when he looked at her. The deep meaning hidden in his eyes was too heavy. She couldn't see through it, but she could sense that he was sincere to her.
"I'm relieved when you say that. Now you're well again, which can be considered a blessing in disguise. So, let's kill a chicken and stew it today. We can all drink the hot chicken soup to replenish our energy.
Later, I will send two more to the old village chief and his family. The old village chief has helped our family a lot on weekdays. Now he is sick and the village chief is also seriously injured. The village is destroyed like this. There is not much we can do. We can't take care of other people, but we have to repay the old village chief's family for their kindness!"
Xiao's mother is a person who values friendship and loyalty the most. She remembers everything that happened in the past, including who was good and who was bad.
As they were talking, Father Xiao and the others got up. They had to go to the village to see if there was anything they could help with. When they got back, they saw that their son had already woken up. He was overjoyed!
"Tsurukawa is awake!"
When Xiao's mother heard his voice, she quickly told him the good news:
"Dad, our Hechuan is fine!"
"I know. I'm not blind. He's staring at me with his eyes wide open. How can I not know that he's recovered?"
After a night, Father Xiao's mood didn't seem as low as yesterday.
"Oh, when I said he was cured, I meant his dementia was cured. It was a blessing in disguise that he hit his head, and when he woke up again, he turned out to be normal. From now on, our son is no longer a stupid child."
This was undoubtedly a huge surprise for Xiao's father. He was stunned for a few seconds, then burst into laughter. He stepped forward and put his hands on Xiao Hechuan's shoulders, looking him up and down. His eyes turned red as he laughed:
"Tsurukawa, are you okay?"
Xiao Hechuan smiled and nodded. When he saw his father again, he almost couldn't hold back his tears. The father in his memory was simple, hardworking and down-to-earth. He had never done anything harmful in his life. He always taught his sons the duties of a human being.
"Dad, I'm really fine. Thank you for your hard work over the years!"
"Dad is not tired. Why should Dad be tired? I just wronged my son. After these few years of being ridiculed, I know that you are ambitious and have great ideals and ambitions. Now that you are well, you should continue to work hard to realize your ideals and ambitions!"
A father understands his son best, so he said this to him, because he knows that Xiao Hechuan's biggest dream in life is to pass the imperial examination and become an official.
When the brothers heard the noise, they squeezed in one after another and saw their father and fourth brother hugging each other. It was Lanlan who told them the good news.
The brothers were naturally very happy to hear that their younger brother had returned to normal and was no longer stupid.
The brothers gathered together, each with a happy smile on their face.
Big brother Xiao Qin punched him on the shoulder and said with a smile:
"Good boy, you're finally well. You can't be lazy anymore!"
This was a joke, because Xiao Hechuan was mentally retarded before, and his family had always taken care of him like a child. They didn't let him go up the mountain to chop wood, nor did they let him work in the fields. He was treated the same as Goudan. Of course, he was only asked to help out when they needed help occasionally.
Xiao Hechuan's return to normal was undoubtedly the best comfort for the Xiao family who had just lost their home. Xiao's mother killed an old hen on the spot and made soup.
