After Sheng Zhiyuan left, Jian Dan was indeed depressed for several days, feeling lost about the future and the environment.
She once again truly felt what kind of era she lived in, somewhat belatedly realizing it, as if she had just left the ivory tower.
Qin Qinghuai initially thought she was just feeling unwell temporarily, but when she remained in this state for several days in a row, he became anxious.
"Honey, what's wrong with you? Why are you unhappy? Is the baby bothering you, or are you homesick?"
He knew from the beginning that Jian Dan was an orphan, so he almost never mentioned it, for fear of hurting her feelings.
In addition, the Cheng family has always been very close, and Cheng Chao often comes over, so the atmosphere at home has always been very good. Therefore, he often overlooks that Jian Dan is just a young girl who has just turned twenty. She has no family members by her side, but her parents-in-law come over with their families. She is also carrying a burden in her belly. It seems that she has no one to talk to about her feelings.
Qin Qinghuai suddenly came to his senses. Why had he thought his wife was an omnipotent person before?
Suddenly realizing something, Qin Qinghuai slapped his head hard, then hugged the person tightly.
"Wife, I'm sorry!"
It was my selfishness. I didn't consider your feelings, and I didn't understand or accompany you enough. I left you to bear the burden of pregnancy alone, and you also had to help me take care of my parents and nephew. I neglected you; you're still a child, my dear wife. I'm so sorry, so sorry!
Jian Dan had been in a daze for the past few days and hadn't been paying attention to what he was saying. When she finally looked closely, she saw the man looking repentant, repeatedly saying sorry, his eyes red-rimmed. She was quite surprised.
"What's wrong? Did you do something to offend me?"
"I'm sorry, I didn't understand you enough, honey. From now on, I will try to see things from your perspective. I can't take your place to get pregnant, but as long as I'm home, the work of taking care of the child will be mine."
If you're in a bad mood, just hit me a couple of times to vent your anger, instead of brooding over it all by yourself.
"If you really want to, how about this: in a few days, we'll find some time to go back to the capital and quietly pay our respects to them. But you're not allowed to do it secretly. I'll arrange my work and then go with you."
Before she could even process what was happening, he started talking about topics that were completely unrelated and jumping around, leaving her speechless.
After he finished speaking, he asked in confusion,
"What are you talking about? What are you talking about? Going back to the capital? It's so chaotic right now, why would I want to go back to the capital? In my condition, if something happens, I won't even be able to protect myself. What could be so important that you have to get involved in this mess in the capital? Can't you wait a bit?"
Then Qin Qinghuai was left in a daze. What was this all about? It was completely unrelated to what he was saying.
"Wife, what are you saying?"
"What do you mean, 'I said'? Didn't you say we were going back to the capital?"
In the middle of the night, the couple had a misunderstanding, but after talking it out, their mood visibly improved.
"Oh dear, I'm so sorry. I've been overthinking things these past few days and made you worry."
Is it really just overthinking?
Qin Qinghuai stared intently at her expression, not missing a single detail.
"Really? You're not lying to me? You're not just feeling down? You're not homesick?"
"You?"
I simply nudged him lightly.
"What are you talking about? My home is right here, who else would I be thinking about?"
"real?"
"It really is, really, more real than gold, okay?"
Qin Qinghuai was finally relieved.
"That's good, that's good. I thought you were missing your parents, who are my parents-in-law."
Jian Dan paused for a moment, then said something she shouldn't say: she didn't know the original owner's feelings for Jian Liye and Su Wenqing, but she treated them a little better than strangers.
When they were little, Jian Liye would indeed carry the original owner on his shoulders and take her to play and run around. Later, he became busy with work and had fewer and fewer opportunities to come back. Sometimes they could only see each other once every year, two years or three years. In other words, with the addition of Su Wenqing, who was obsessed with her husband, their intimacy became even less and less.
Moreover, when Jian Liye wasn't home, not to mention that the original owner was raised by two old men, Su Wenqing wasn't someone who could live independently. The only people she cared about besides herself were Jian Liye. As for the original owner's daughter, she probably also had two old men to rely on, so she was too at ease and didn't worry much about her or have the awareness of being a mother. In fact, Jian Dan was somewhat... hard to explain.
No matter how you compare them, what was more important in the original owner's memory was not her parents, but Grandpa Jian and Grandpa Su, the two people who were with her day and night.
Thinking about it, she shook her head.
"After I grew up, my dad got a promotion and didn't come home much anymore. To be honest, I don't have a very deep impression of him."
As for my mother,”
Simple shook her head again.
"To be honest, I do miss them. I miss my grandfather and my maternal grandfather. They truly loved me dearly."
Qin Qinghuai listened quietly, clapping his hands gently.
This wasn't the first time he'd heard such words, but every time he did, he could feel the deep sincerity in the two old men's hearts.
"However, if they knew, they wouldn't have let me take such a risk at this time. The memorial isn't about the form; if I remember it in my heart, they will know too."
Simply roll over and lie flat on your back, with your hands behind your neck.
"They are the ones who want the best for me the most!"
Qin Qinghuai then lay on his side, watching her slowly recall the events.
"Hearing you say that, I'm curious about them. Why didn't I meet such wonderful elders?"
I couldn't help but chuckle.
"Go away, your parents are great. People have different priorities and focuses. When your parents were young, their focus was on work, so they naturally paid less attention to their families, but they definitely cared about them."
These two old men are quite idle.
They handed over all the factories they owned, and they were just figureheads, going to the factories every day to check on things, but not allowed to see them for long.”
The images that flashed through her mind made Jian Dan unconsciously smile.
"Seeing too much of this will make your heart ache, your flesh ache, and your heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys will all hurt."
"So, why not just ignore it and avoid the hassle?"
"Yes, that's what Grandpa and Grandpa said too. They also said that if they interfere too much, people might doubt their sincerity, doubt whether they are willing to hand over their things to the government, doubt whether they have other intentions, or whether they still want to be capitalists. So later, they simply stopped interfering. They no longer cared about the good or the bad. There were people who cared more than they did."
"The two old men are very wise."
"Yes, wise and farsighted, but he doesn't live long."
It was a faint sadness, not overt, but Qin Qinghuai could still sense the bitterness in her heart, so he quickly reached out and hugged her.
"No, they are definitely watching you right now, and they hope you can do well."
