Shu Ying gave him an annoyed look. "The children's bodies haven't fully grown yet. Don't keep pinching their cheeks."
Although she sometimes couldn't help herself, she was always worried that Xie Zhiyan would not be careful and pinch the children too hard, especially Yueyue, whose skin was delicate from birth and would turn red easily with the slightest movement.
Xie Zhiyan immediately nodded obediently, "Okay, okay, it's my fault. I will definitely keep my wife's words in mind from now on. I will never do what you forbid me to do. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west."
Xie Mingzhu sat on the sofa, glancing at the two of them from time to time, her face beaming with undisguised joy.
After Xie Zhiyan finished eating, Xie Mingzhu arranged for Yueyue and Yangyang to go for a walk outside. Little Stone would come to play with them every day. The little guy had grown quite a bit in height recently, probably because he was with someone he liked. So he looked better than before, and his eyes had a bit more childlike innocence, no longer as lifeless as before.
Xie Zhiyan and Shu Ying went upstairs to the bedroom. The two of them had something to talk about. Shu Ying turned around and took out all the documents related to her parents from under the cabinet, arranged them neatly, and placed them on the table.
“Take a look at these things first. They were left by my parents and grandparents. I found them by accident while tidying up today. I think these might be of some help to you. They can be considered actual evidence. I have basically sorted out everything I have. I just need to use you as a contact to hand it over to the organization. I trust the organization’s decision. It will definitely clear the Shu family’s name.”
Xie Zhiyan looked intently at Shu Ying's face, then at the thick stack of documents. These were all of Shu Ying's hard work, and he dared not be careless. He immediately took out some of the documents and began to carefully look through them. The more he looked, the more serious his expression became.
Especially the letters that Shuying's mother left for her; in the end, he felt his heart clench tightly.
He never imagined that Shu Ying's elders had paid such a high price, even their lives.
“These things should indeed be handed over to the organization. The Shu family has been wronged, which is an utter disgrace! Yingying, don’t worry, I will definitely protect these things. The most urgent thing now is to find a suitable witness. Just one witness is enough to completely clear the Shu family’s name.”
The deaths of Shu Wenyuan and his wife were truly unjust. The Shu family ancestors had done so much for the revolution, even sacrificing more than a dozen lives, but in the end, this was the result they received. Anyone would feel heartbroken. Shu Ying carried such a heavy burden on her shoulders, and Xie Zhiyan couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache when he looked at her.
“You should have told me you had these things sooner, at least I could have helped you organize them. Yingying, I know you don’t want to burden me, but we’re husband and wife now, and I don’t want you to be bothered by those trivial matters alone. If you have any troubles in the future, you must tell me. Even if I can’t do anything, at least you won’t have to worry and bear that pressure alone.”
At this moment, Xie Zhiyan only hated his own incompetence. If he were more outstanding, perhaps he could have protected Shu Ying's whole family.
