Su Xiaoluo sighed, but the second sister-in-law was quite content, because she knew that the second brother thought the same way.

When all the dishes were served, Professor Yan said with emotion: "You have been married for so many years, and I didn't know that Su Dong had such cooking skills!"

Su Dong said with a smile: "I have been in the army all these years. During the time I was at home, I was grateful to you for taking care of Yan Zhi and the children. You have worked hard."

Professor Yan felt relieved after hearing this. He nodded and said, "My dear, where is the wine at home? Bring it over. Su Dong and I will have a couple of drinks."

Seeing this, Yan's mother hurriedly said, "The child will be fine tomorrow, why did you drink that wine?"

"You see, your mother is very stingy and doesn't want you to drink." Professor Yan said this deliberately.

Su Dong knew Yan Ma-dong, so he said, "I'm fine. I'll be back to the army the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll get it! Old man, you're talking nonsense before you even drink, take it easy!" Mother Yan laughed angrily. She really had no idea what to do with this old man.

Yan Zhi went to get two wine glasses.

Su Dong took the bottle and filled them both up.

Professor Yan picked up his glass and said, "Dongzi, come and have a drink with me. You have been wronged over the years."

Su Dong's face flushed, and he quickly clinked glasses with him: "Dad, you are too kind."

They drank it all in one gulp.

Su Dong filled up the glasses for both of them, and Yan's mother kept nagging: "Drink some."

If I drink too much, I'll say everything I need to say, and the relationship itself will be in jeopardy. I'm afraid it won't end well.

"Oh, Dad, drinking too much will harm your body." Yan Zhi was also afraid that her father would say something unpleasant.

"Okay, all of you keep quiet. I know what's going on." Professor Yan glared at them and pulled Su Dong to continue drinking. "Dongzi, what do you think of your father-in-law these years? Tell me the truth."

Su Dong looked at him and said, "You have been very good to our little family. You have been devoted to us wholeheartedly."

If a family does not have the help of the elderly, it will be a mess just to take care of the children, let alone focus on their own career.

They really did an exceptional job at this.

The two children were taken care of from childhood, and their eating, drinking, defecating and urinating were all taken care of by the two old people.

Su Donggu came to the family, and the family had always been supported by the two old people.

Professor Yan sighed and said, "Actually, there is one thing we have never told you."

"Old Yan!" Mother Yan held him back, knowing what he wanted to say.

"Dad, don't say that." Yan Zhi lowered her head, tears unable to stop flowing.

"We're a family, so we should say whatever we want to say." Professor Yan drank another glass of wine and became angry.

"You talk, come on, Zicheng and Zixuan, follow me upstairs and play for a while." Mother Yan couldn't help being a little angry, she pulled the two children upstairs.

Su Xiaoluo ate the food silently and looked at them quietly.

Today, she wants to eat the melon on her second brother's head.

When they went upstairs, Su Dong said hurriedly: "Dad, just tell me what you want to say. I will do what I can."

Professor Yan said with red eyes: "Zhizhi, she is not easy. After she gave birth to Zixuan, her mood became very intense. Especially after you returned to the army, she cried day and night. We two old people were wondering why she was like this. Later, we heard from the hospital that she might be suffering from depression."

Depression?

Su Dong stared at Yan Zhi, but he still didn't know what disease this was.

"Your mother was afraid of delaying you, and was also afraid that you would dislike Yan Zhi after knowing her illness, so she insisted on not telling you." Professor Yan said helplessly, "We accompanied Zhi Zhi to look for doctors all over Weicheng. In the end, we found a doctor who came back from abroad. He said it was postpartum depression. This disease is very rare, even people with happy families have a chance of getting it."

Professor Yan became excited as he spoke. He walked to a cabinet nearby and took out a stack of diagnosis books.

"Dad, what do you want to do?" Yan Zhi tried to hold back her tears. Others said that this was also a form of mental illness.

"Let Dongzi see, you didn't do it on purpose." Professor Yan put the stack of medical records in front of Su Dong.

Yan Zhi's emotions collapsed, and Su Xiaoluo hurriedly accompanied her back to the room.

Su Dong stared blankly at the thing in front of him, with a thousand questions in his mind. When did this happen, and why didn't he notice it at all?

"Donzi, I am old and don't know what to say. My daughter is not the way we are used to, but she is kind-hearted and has no bad intentions. She just wants to live with you and live a good life with you." Professor Yan couldn't help crying.

He wanted to talk everything out and give his daughter a happy marriage.

If the Soviet Union accepts it, then that's it, he has made a mistake.

Su Dong opened the diagnosis book, which contained Yan Zhi's name and the time of the consultation.

"Postpartum depression is a mental disorder that occurs in women during the postpartum period."

"She often feels depressed, sad, empty and helpless. She even cries for no reason, has trouble falling asleep or wakes up early."

"As for the cause of the disease, it could be due to difficult labor or it could be due to the inability to adapt to the current change in status."

These words were like knives, cutting Su Dong's heart again and again, causing him to gasp for breath in pain.

When did all this happen?

How could he not notice Yan Zhi's opposition? He just thought Yan Zhi became happy, and he just thought Yan Zhi might regret marrying him.

He had never thought that it would be because of this disease!

"Why, why did you tell me?" Su Dong's eyes were red and he choked up, "No one has ever told me this."

"Yan Zhi asked me to tell you that she said she was mentally ill." Professor Yan said helplessly, "This child has been very strong-willed throughout her life, and she was afraid that you would dislike her. She sometimes breastfed the child and refused to take medicine. Later, her symptoms could no longer be controlled by taking medicine, so she was forced to stop breastfeeding. With the control of medicine, the situation has improved a little."

"She's easy, too."

"If you can accept the fact that she was ill, then that's fine."

Professor Yan is also proud of himself. He said: "Her mother and I are very capable. If we can save more money for her in the last few years, she should be able to live a carefree life if she finds a job."

"What I mean is, if you still care about Zhizhi, forgive her just once."

Professor Yan spoke in a very humble manner, not caring about Su Dong's attitude, he just wanted to speak his mind.

Su Dong couldn't imagine how Yan Zhi had gotten through that period of time.

What was he doing at that time?

What has he done for this family, for Yan Zhi, and for the children?

Su Dong slapped himself hard, he was a complete bastard! How many failures did he have to make Yan Zhi trust him so much?
