Tao Chunfang nodded in agreement, feeling she had to give it a shot for her child. With another girl leading the way, what did she have to fear?
And so everyone unanimously agreed to go to Kyushu City.
After discussing the matter, the next step was to cook. Qiao Xiaoni looked at the ingredients available at home and decided to make four dishes and a soup.
Li Meihua had been exhausted for several days and was too tired to cook, so she lay down on the kang (a heated brick bed) to rest.
Qiao Haisheng finished his cigarette and lit another one.
Upon seeing this, Li Meihua quickly stood up and snatched the cigarette away: "You've smoked several already, the whole room smells of your cigarettes."
"I was just too excited and wanted to smoke to calm down. If you don't let me, I won't." Qiao Haisheng clapped his hands and lay down next to her.
"The farthest I've ever been in my life is the county. I've heard that Kyushu City is very prosperous. I wonder what it's like?"
“I’m even more behind than you. I’ve never been to the county town! I’ve only ever seen the trains on the tracks, never ridden one,” Li Meihua said, feeling aggrieved.
Qiao Haisheng quickly comforted him: "That's because our family was poor before. When our family is better off, you can go wherever you want. As long as my legs can walk, I will go with you anywhere."
"Yes." Li Meihua almost burst into tears.
When Qiao Xiaoshan went to the restroom, he calmed down and thought about many things. Ma Yulan couldn't leave for the time being, and if she went to Jiuzhou City, the two of them would have even less chance to meet.
If someone were to pursue Ma Yulan, wouldn't his efforts be in vain?
Thinking of this, he could no longer stand still and hurriedly went to the kitchen. He saw his sister and brother-in-law talking while he was busy making dinner.
Seeing her second brother's hesitant expression, Qiao Xiaoni put down the cleaver and asked, "Second brother, what do you want to eat? The vegetables are already chopped; we can only have these four dishes tonight."
If you want something delicious, I'll cook it for you again sometime.
Qiao Xiaoshan shook his head: "I don't want you to cook for me, but there's something I want to discuss with you."
Qiao Xiaoni and Su Chenhao exchanged a glance, both finding it strange that Qiao Xiaoshan could possibly have something to say.
Qiao Xiaoshan stepped forward: "I want to be with Ma Yulan. What do you think we should do about this?"
If I go to Kyushu City, and she starts looking for someone here, wouldn't I be wasting my time?
"Um... Second Brother, do you still have feelings for Yulan?" Qiao Xiaoni asked in surprise, "I've noticed you two don't talk much usually, is it something that happened recently?"
“We haven’t talked much since you went to school, but I’ve always had her in my heart. I wonder what she’s thinking. Tonight you said you were going to take us to Kyushu City, but she has her mother-in-law and children and can’t come along, so she’ll have to stay and help out.”
"We won't be back for a while after we go, and it won't be convenient to call her."
"Alright, stop talking, I understand." Qiao Xiaoni interrupted him, "Second brother, I can't help you with matters of the heart. If you want to stay, you can stay. Originally, I was planning to hand over the business to Third Uncle and the others, so that it wouldn't be an outsider benefiting."
If you stay, the business can be handed over to you. Your third uncle can come and help; their children are still very young, and your third aunt can't help for the time being.
What do you think of this? If it's okay, I'll talk to Mom and Dad again tomorrow, trying to avoid discussing your situation.
