Li Huai looked at himself in the mirror for a long time before accepting the fact that he had been reborn.
He actually got such an opportunity.
Which lifetime is this?
Xiao Duo had an accident, and his wife Qing Lan passed away from illness at the age of sixty, which should be the first incarnation.
Then Qinglan was reborn and took the initiative to find him. The couple died peacefully in their old age, which was their second life.
This time, he has been reborn with his memories intact; this must be his third life.
Judging from the time, it was March 1988. Qinglan was still deeply mired in the Wang family's quagmire, and that scumbag Wang Dazhi was probably having an affair with another woman.
He should go and save Qinglan now, so that she can escape the Wang family's misery as soon as possible.
Oh, and there's Xiaoduo. Judging by her age, Xiaoduo is almost sixteen now, and she'll soon be forced to marry that problematic guy.
Besides the mother and daughter, there were also the eldest and second children.
At this time, Erwa was still alive and well, and Dawa did not go to prison for doing anything extreme to avenge his younger brother.
He has a lot to do.
Each and every one of them is important to him; he can't let any of them slip by.
Because he had investigated Xiaoduo's ordeal before, he knew exactly where she was. He contacted an old comrade-in-arms who was closest to Xiaoduo and asked him to help him find her and keep an eye on the family that had trapped her, so that he could pick her up later.
After making arrangements for Xiaoduo, he went to find his two sons.
The relationship between his two children and their father is very cold now.
The first person he found was Erwa, who was playing pool with a few people who looked like thugs in a pool hall.
He hasn't turned fifteen yet, which is the age for junior high school, but he doesn't attend school and spends all his time skipping classes and fooling around outside.
Thinking of that outstanding second child, Li Huai felt heartbroken, and even more so, self-reproach.
The father also bears a great deal of responsibility for his son's condition.
Although Erwa and his father didn't get along, he was still afraid when Li Huai, the father, really got angry, so he was dragged home.
What Li Huai said next terrified Erwa even more.
"Erwa, over the years, Dad has wronged you and your brother a lot. Dad wants to say sorry to you. Dad doesn't ask for anything else, just stop messing around outside and go back to school to study properly, okay?"
Erwa nodded stiffly.
Li Huai smiled; indeed, communicating well with his son was effective.
My eldest child is currently a senior in high school and will be taking the college entrance exam in a few months.
Because of his poor relationship with his father, he chose to live at school when he was in high school and only went home once in a long while.
His grades are decent in his class.
When Erwa suddenly came to the school, Dawa was quite surprised.
"Erwa, what brings you here?"
Erwa's face was long and mournful, and his voice was trembling with tears as he spoke. "Brother, Dad might not make it."
"What?" The eldest child's eyes widened.
Erwa then brought up her father's recent unusual behavior.
First, she apologized to him in a kind and gentle manner, then she bought him a pair of shoes that he had always wanted, and also cooked him a delicious meal.
He felt that his father must be seriously ill and not long for life, which was why his father was being so kind to him.
After hearing his younger brother's description, even the older child became panicked.
Actually, Li Huai didn't come to find Da Wa right away because he thought that Da Wa would be home for vacation in a few days, and he wanted to wait until his son came home so that the father and son could have a good talk.
Unexpectedly, his change was so drastic that Erwa imagined many bad things and found a school before his brother even started his vacation.
Although the father and son had a strained relationship over the years, the thought that the father might not live much longer made all the so-called resentment disappear instantly.
The older child lost interest in continuing class, asked the teacher for leave, and rushed home with his younger brother.
Da Wa is from a divorced family. His father is a taciturn and cold-hearted soldier, which his homeroom teacher knows. When Da Wa told her that his father was sick and that there was no one at home to take care of him, he asked for leave and was quickly granted leave.
However, when the two children rushed home, they found that their father was not there.
The two brothers both thought their father was at work, but little did they know, Li Huai was busy with something else.
Although he was very worried about his wife Qinglan's current situation, things at home were not yet settled, and the two of them were not in the same city. Li Huai could not immediately abandon his work and children to go there to look for her.
The main question is, now that he's gone there, what reason can he give Qinglan to believe him?
This is not something that can be done in a few days.
However, he did do something; he contacted people to investigate his wife's current situation.
He's not home right now; he's out meeting someone to get some documents.
He returned home with a file folder in his hand, looking preoccupied, and saw his two sons sitting there with solemn expressions.
Seeing his eldest child, who shouldn't be home yet and whose holiday hasn't started, Li Huai was stunned.
"Big brother, what brings you back now?"
"Dad, tell me the truth, are you sick?"
Li Huai was taken aback again. "Sick? I'm perfectly healthy."
The older brother and younger brother exchanged a glance, clearly not believing it.
Unable to get the answers he wanted from his father, the eldest son became even more worried, especially since he noticed that his father, who usually argued with him after only a few words, was all smiles and gentleness this time. He then completely believed his younger brother's words.
Because of this, the eldest child quickly made a decision: to switch from boarding school to day school and live at home.
Li Huai was overjoyed to know that his son was coming home to stay.
“You’re in your final year of high school now, you need good nutrition. It’s perfect that you’re staying at home, so Dad can cook more delicious food for you.”
