He Chenglin could tell from his daughter's expression that Han Yixian had deeply hurt her. But even if he wanted to kill Han Yixian, he would respect his daughter's opinion.
He nodded and said, "Since that's your decision, Dad supports you. From now on, neither of us should mention the Han family. They have nothing to do with us anymore. Let's just live our lives here."
He Zhenhua didn't tell his sister the things he was about to say about Han Yixian's fake engagement and severing ties with the Han family.
He thought this was for the best, so his sister could stay home and keep their parents company. Given Han Yixian's ruthless and calculating nature, if his sister really married him, she would definitely be bullied terribly by him.
My sister would be better off marrying a loving and honest man. As for Han Yixian, let him go to hell.
Du Yuhan felt extremely tired. She rushed home with almost no rest, just wanting to reunite with her parents as soon as possible.
Looking at Du Yuhan's tired appearance, Yu Huiru said, "Xiaohan, you must be exhausted. Go inside and rest. I've prepared a room especially for you, and it's all set up. I'm just waiting for you to come back and stay. Come on, let Mom show you around."
As she spoke, Yu Huiru gave her husband a wink. He Chenglin understood immediately and quickly said, "Yes, Xiaohan, you must be tired from your long journey, go and get some rest."
Du Yuhan nodded, stood up, and said, "Dad, you two talk. I'll go rest first. Second brother, don't go back to the army yet. I have something important to tell you later. My head hurts a lot right now. I'll go rest for a bit."
Upon hearing this, He Zhendong quickly said, "Then you should go and rest for a while. Second Brother isn't leaving."
Du Yuhan followed her mother to the room prepared for her on the second floor.
The room was bright and cozy. The house was warm because of the heating. In this day and age, such a house is really quite nice.
The room was furnished with an old-fashioned double bed, a desk, and wardrobes. Du Yuhan really liked the room's layout.
Yu Huiru looked around the room and asked, "How is it, Xiaohan? Mom decorated this herself. Do you like it?"
Du Yuhan nodded and said, "I like it. Thank you, Mom."
Yu Huiru said, "The house is fully equipped. Your room has a private bathroom with hot water, so you can take a shower before resting."
Yu Huiru knew that her daughter had brought nothing back with her when she returned home with nothing in her hands.
Thinking about it, it makes sense. After going through such hardships, the things he was carrying were probably lost long ago.
She said, "Xiaohan, go into the bathroom and take a shower first. Mom will go get you some clothes. Your older brothers brought back a lot of cloth coupons and asked me to make clothes for you. So Mom made several outfits for you, and now that you're back, you can wear them."
Du Yuhan was indeed very tired, so she didn't stand on ceremony with her mother and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
Du Yuhan quickly took a hot shower and came out of the bathroom to see her mother sitting on the bed folding clothes. Underwear and pajamas had been prepared for her, all brand new clothes.
She felt her mother's deep love for her. Her family had long been preparing for her return home.
Yu Huiru handed Du Yuhan an underwear and a set of pajamas, saying, "Put this on. Mom has put all the other clothes in your closet. You can find whichever one you want to wear. Rest for a bit, and Mom will call you when it's time to eat."
Yu Huiru watched her daughter get into bed, covered her with a blanket, and then left the room.
She went into the living room and said to the men sitting there, "From now on, none of you should mention Han Yixian again. So that Xiaohan won't be saddened by the past."
He Zhendong said, "Mom, actually Han Yixian's engagement to someone else was fake, and there was no real engagement ceremony. He has also severed ties with the Han family now, probably because of what your mother did to Xiaohan that caused him to break with the family. Maybe he really likes Xiaomei."
Yu Huiru said, "Even if Han Yixian severs ties with the Han family, it doesn't change the fact that he is a member of the Han family. Nor does it change the fact that he is Zeng Yufen's son. Who can guarantee that he won't return to the Han family in the future?"
Because of his mother, I don't want Xiaohan to marry him. I don't want Xiaohan to face a difficult choice in the future. Besides, Han Yixian's domineering personality is not suitable for our Xiaohan.
I hope that in the future, Xiaohan will find a man who loves her, protects her, and puts her first, instead of someone like Han Yixian who disregards his fiancée's feelings when faced with responsibilities.
I'm a mother, and I won't put all the responsibilities first like you men do. I only want my daughter to be happy in the future. Since Xiaohan wants to let him go, then we'll support her. From now on, no one is allowed to mention Han Yixian again.”
Han Yixian had no idea that his future mother-in-law had marked him with a big X and removed him from the list of potential sons-in-law.
The head of the family, He Chenglin, supported his wife's decision, saying, "Just do as your mother says. Although Han Yixian is very outstanding, he is not suitable for our Xiaohan. It's not necessarily a bad thing for Xiaohan to break up with him completely now."
Lying in bed, Du Yuhan thought about the scenes she had witnessed on her way to Northeast China and realized the severity of the disaster. Many places were suffering from severe drought, and the harvest was greatly affected.
Farmers in this era had a very difficult time growing grain. First, the grain seeds were not high-yield varieties. Second, without chemical fertilizers, they could only rely on a small amount of farmyard manure to increase yields. Third, the backward irrigation facilities in the farmland meant that people could only rely on the weather for their livelihood.
Now that the heavens have turned against us and aren't sending rain, the farmers are going to starve. Luckily, there's government relief; otherwise, the situation would be even worse.
However, the country has only been established for a short time and is still very weak, so how can it possibly take care of everything?
Du Yuhan felt very heavy-hearted throughout this journey. In her previous life, she lived a carefree life in the courtyard under Han Yixian's protection.
It was only when he learned that his adoptive parents and their family had starved to death that he finally realized the severity of the famine.
Although Han Yixian broke her heart in this life, she was still grateful to him from the bottom of her heart.
She wouldn't erase all of Han Yixian's achievements just because of her romantic setbacks.
Without Han Yixian in her past life, there would be no her. No matter how he treats her in this life, she will consider it repayment of a debt from her past life.
She has repaid her debt to him in this life, and they will never cross paths again.
With mixed feelings, Du Yuhan fell into a deep sleep. She was finally back with her biological parents. From now on, she would take care of them and help raise her little nephew, becoming their little darling.
If she never meets someone she likes in this life and never gets married again, she'll have her nephew take care of her in her old age. From then on, she'll raise her nephew like her own son.
She believed that her parents wouldn't force her to get married even if she didn't.
