Chapter 390 What secrets are hidden

Yu Wanqing frowned slightly: "What did they write to say?"

Ever since my second brother's incident, my father has completely cut off contact with his hometown. I didn't expect that they would still write to me.

Yu Jiaren said calmly, "Mrs. Yu is ill. I heard she won't last long. Let Dad go back to see her."

Yu Wanqing was a little surprised: "What is Dad's plan?"

"From what I see from Dad, he's planning to go back." Yu Jiaren frowned and said softly, "He's worried that if he doesn't go back, people from his hometown will come and make trouble. If that spreads a bad reputation, it will affect us brothers and sisters, especially my second and fourth brothers, my youngest sister and my brother-in-law. You're either in the army or in the government, so it will have a big impact."

"At this point, no matter if they are guilty or not, as long as someone reports it, they could be punished. I don't think my parents would dare to take the risk."

After Yu Jiaren finished speaking, his third brother, who always disliked the two old people in his hometown, fell silent.

They all knew that at this moment, reputation was more important than anything else, and a small handle could lead to the annihilation of the entire army.

This is also the reason why the second brother sent the fake's two children to the fake, that is because there are too many people with fake kindness.

Yu Jiaren sighed: "In the eyes of many people, the real second brother has been found and is so outstanding. We should not bear grudges against the so-called grandpa and grandma. If we bear grudges, it would be unfilial."

"In the eyes of those people, there are no perfect parents in the world. As long as they say "I didn't mean it, my child didn't suffer, and he is so outstanding", they should be forgiven by everyone."

That group of people who talk without any hesitation are always staring at other people's family affairs, always wanting to stand on the highest moral point to convict others.

Unfortunately, in this environment, they really can't do anything.

Unless, their family is not afraid of being reported or sent to labor camp.

Yu Wanqing asked: "What does mother think?"

Compared to her father, Yu Wanqing was more worried about her mother's thoughts.

Third brother Yu shrugged, "Mom will definitely compromise for us. She doesn't dare to gamble, for fear that Dad won't come back and upset those people in his hometown, and they will really throw in the towel."

"Some time ago, a colleague at the grain station in the neighboring county was reported by someone on hearsay. Without any evidence, the whole family was sent to Inner Mongolia for labor."

Third brother Yu leaned back on the sofa and sighed, "I've already called second brother to tell him about this. He also agrees that Dad should go back. He said that there has been a lot of unrest in the country recently, and we don't want to be caught by someone at this critical moment to attack our family."

“It’s not worth it.”

Yu Jiaren pursed his lips and said after a long while: "The biggest victims of this incident are my parents and my second brother."

"We resent them, but we can choose not to go back. No one will say anything and the uncles know it. But if dad doesn't go back, people will see us and start gossiping."

Yu Wanqing understood what was going on. They were worried that the rumors would harm the family, so Dad decided to go back to his hometown to take a look.

She nodded: "No matter what Dad does, as long as he discusses it with Mom and asks for my second brother's opinion, we won't say anything."

Yu Jiaren and Yu Sange both nodded repeatedly.

Huo Lanci said: "In the eyes of people in my hometown, my father was able to go to college because of the support of the elderly. If my father doesn't go back, he will be seen as an ungrateful person and an unfilial son in the eyes of many people."

The blood relationship is there. Even if he really cuts off the relationship in the newspaper, in the eyes of many people, my father-in-law is still the son of those two old men.

Thinking of those people in their hometown, the brothers and sisters were not in a good mood.

Yu Jiaren took a deep breath and closed his eyes, as if hesitating whether he should tell him what he knew.

Yu Wanqing and the other two had long seen that their eldest brother was hiding something, but unless he said anything, they wouldn't take the initiative to ask.

Yu Wanqing changed the subject and talked about something else.

As he was talking, Yu Jiaren suddenly said, "I suspect it's not that easy for Dad to go back to his hometown."

"They wrote two letters. After reading the first letter, my parents were hesitant and did not want to go back. After receiving the second letter, my father told my mother that he would go back, and my mother relented."

Yu Jiaren looked at his third brother and said, "Just think about it. Mom was so determined when she faced those people in her hometown, but now she has compromised."

One of the reasons for going back was that he wanted to protect his brothers and sisters and prevent them from being hurt by rumors.

In addition to these, the second letter must also be a crucial reason.

Yu Wanqing became interested. She whispered, "Is there any secret hidden in my hometown?"

What a pity, she has to go to work, otherwise she could go back and see what's going on.

The third brother glanced at her and said, "Curious?"

Yu Wanqing nodded repeatedly: "Of course I'm curious. I want to know what could make my parents compromise."

There might be a shocking secret hidden behind it.

"Then I will go back with Dad and tell you the secret when I come back."

He was worried about his father going back alone, fearing that his father's filial piety would get out of control and he would sell out their entire family.

Yu Zhian didn't know at this moment that his image in the eyes of his third son had become a little bad.

Yu Wanqing nodded: "Okay, Third Brother will go back with me and can take care of Dad."

Yu Jiaren and Huo Lanci were both amused by Xiaowu's expression. Everyone could see that she wanted to know the secret hidden by the old Yu family.

The next morning, while eating breakfast, Yu Wanqing looked at her mother cautiously and said, "Mom, I heard that someone in my hometown wrote to ask Dad to come back."

Li Xiulan hummed, "One broke his leg, and the other is seriously ill and dying. They probably want to see your father for the last time."

Yu Wanqing didn't expect that another person broke his leg.

She asked: "Do people back home know that we found our second brother?"

Li Xiulan shook her head: "Since I left last time, I haven't contacted anyone back home, and I didn't allow your father to write back to tell them."

Thinking of this, Li Xiulan appeared calm on the surface, but hatred was still surging in her heart. She felt extremely uncomfortable whenever she thought about it.

Li Xiulan said: "Your second brother is lucky to have met the Zhou family, so he was able to survive and become so outstanding. This is because the Zhou family is kind and truly loves your second brother."

"This cannot erase the pain of our separation for more than 20 years."

"So, they have no right to know that your second brother has returned. I want them to live with a guilty conscience for the rest of their lives." After saying this, Li Xiulan laughed at herself in her heart, thinking that perhaps they would not have a guilty conscience.

If they were really worried, there were countless opportunities to tell them the truth in the past twenty years.

However, they chose to conceal the truth and live their happy lives with peace of mind.

Li Xiulan thought about the content of the letter she received last time and felt even more disgusted with them.
