He Shaoyun looked at Chu Lin with obvious pity. He was a very strong-willed person who neither liked nor needed anyone's pity.
After they left Chu Lin's house to pay their New Year's visit, Chu Lin saw them off at the door and onto the roadside.
"Comrade Chu Lin, thank you. We can go back on our own. Please take good care of your parents at home," He Shaohua said to Chu Lin with a smile.
Chu Lin nodded and looked at He Shaoyun, saying, "When are you going back to the farm? I'll go with you."
“I… the day after tomorrow!” He Shaoyun looked at Chu Lin, her expression as indifferent as before.
Chu Lin's way of speaking had changed, and He Shaoyun interpreted this as him showing concern for her.
"Then after I visit my cousin for the New Year tomorrow, I'll go back with you to pack our things, okay?" Chu Lin asked He Shaoyun.
"Are you going to visit family members in the residential compound for the New Year?" He Shaoyun asked again.
Chu Lin nodded in response, "Yes, I'm going to visit my cousin in the family compound for the New Year."
“Perfect timing! My sister and I are planning to visit Aunt Yu’s house for the New Year tomorrow. Shall we go together?” He Shaoyun said with a smile. “I should tell Aunt Yu and the others that I’m going back to Beijing.”
These days, Yu Qingce and Xu Tiande have been taking good care of the two sisters. In his letter, their father said that Uncle Jiang and Uncle Xu had visited him and talked with him for a long time.
To alleviate the father's loneliness.
My father also said in his letter that we should properly thank them.
"Okay, I'll come pick you up then?" Chu Lin was just thinking of introducing Shao Yun to his cousin. "We can go to my cousin's house to pay New Year's greetings together and introduce you two."
After hearing this, He Shaoyun smiled shyly and glanced at her sister.
"I'm going to pay New Year's visits, we'll talk about it later!" Although He Shaoyun didn't refuse, it was tantamount to acquiescing.
Chu Lin watched the two sisters leave, and a smile appeared on his face as he looked at their retreating figures.
They are different.
"This time, I seized the opportunity, Uncle He, I will protect Xiaoyun." Now, Chu Lin only has He Shaoyun left.
The second person in his life to bring him light.
Therefore, we must hold on tightly.
On the way back, He Shaohua saw Chu Lin's family situation and then looked at He Shaoyun.
"Xiaoyun, have you really thought this through?" He Shaohua looked at her sister's expression. Ever since her conversation with Chu Lin, her sister had started to change.
Previously, He Shaohua hoped that her younger sister could choose what she wanted, but now, after seeing Chu Lin's family situation, she has begun to feel afraid.
If my sister really marries Chu Lin, she will suffer a lot in the future.
"Sister~ I know what you're thinking. I've already made up my mind to choose Chu Lin for the rest of my life." He Shaoyun had always liked Chu Lin very much. Before, she was unsure whether Chu Lin loved her or not. After the incident at home, she also began to feel that she was not worthy of being with Chu Lin.
Chu Lin, having realized his feelings for her, confessed his love to her. He Shaoyun had no reservations.
Today I also met Chu Lin's family. They are a bit poor, but for He Shaoyun, Chu Lin treats her well, and the two of them work hard and will surely have a better life in the future.
“But his family is too poor!” He Shaohua looked at He Shaoyun and said, “Marriage is a family matter. The fact that he refused to be with you before only shows that he didn’t want to hurt you, but now…”
He Shaohua wanted to persuade him, but she didn't know how. Chu Lin was a very contradictory person.
“He didn’t dare before, but he dares now, which means that after going through a lot of struggles, he still chose me. I’m not afraid of hardship, I’m just afraid that I will become one of those unlucky girls in the future. Sister, Chu Lin will definitely become more outstanding. As long as you are willing to work hard, not everyone will suffer forever.” What He Shaoyun believed in her heart would not change.
"Chu Lin is a good person, but you also need to understand that his family is indeed in dire straits. If you marry him, you will have nothing." Love is good, but if they can't even guarantee a decent standard of living, as his older sister, of course I have to worry.
"Sister, don't worry, Chu Lin and I will definitely work hard. Besides, our studies are our priority right now. I've resumed my student status and I get a monthly stipend, the same as Chu Lin's. Together we'll have forty yuan, which shouldn't be a problem for our parents' retirement. And we'll be assigned jobs in two and a half years."
Seeing how certain He Shaoyun was, He Shaohua knew that if she continued to persuade her, He Shaoyun would definitely get angry.
"Okay, I won't say anymore! The main thing is that Chu Lin is good to you. I will also come to take care of his grandparents regularly." He Shaohua looked at her younger sister and felt grateful to Chu Lin for going to so much trouble to let her sister go back to school. She was mainly grateful to her sister for being good to her and not to let her sister down. She would also come to take care of Chu Lin's grandparents when she had time so that the two of them wouldn't be distracted.
"Sister, thank you so much!" He Shaoyun hugged her sister happily. "It's fine to come visit occasionally. You don't have this obligation. After I marry Chu Lin, it will be Chu Lin and my obligation. I don't want you to sacrifice too much for me."
“Fool, I’m not here to take care of your parents. I just came to visit and chat with them.” He Shaohua sighed, “After hearing Chu Lin’s parents’ story, and seeing Chu Lin himself, I realize he’s quite devoted. His mother divorced his father and ultimately committed suicide for love, which shows Chu Lin isn’t a bad person, but…”
“But…” He Shaoyun quickly interjected, “If Chu Lin were to face the same situation as his father, I could not die for love.”
“Yes,” He Shaohua nodded.
He Shaoyun smiled and shook her head helplessly at her sister, saying, "Sister, what are you saying? This kind of thing will definitely not happen. You have to believe me."
