Seeing that she had fallen silent, Old Master Ma knew she had taken his words to heart, and continued:
“Child, believe what your grandfather says. It is because they are your closest family members that they are most unwilling to see you abandon your own little family for them.”
If that's really the case, they must be under immense pressure. Why put themselves through that?
Yes, everyone can live their own lives well, so why do we have to get caught up in this and end up making everyone unhappy?
Zhu Qinghao forced a smile, creating a complicated expression:
“I understand, I will think about it carefully, Grandpa Ma, thank you. You are the first person to make me think in this direction. Before, I was really stuck in my own way of thinking…”
Seeing that she truly understood, Grandpa Ma smiled and continued driving the ox, saying nothing more and leaving the young couple alone.
Seeing that Zhu Qinghao was in a bad mood, Sheng Yi quickly pulled her into his arms and silently offered his support.
"Okay, it's alright. I'll support whatever decision you make."
In fact, what Grandpa Ma said resonated with him. He was just thinking that Zhu Qing hadn't tried to separate from her family after the Zhu family's misfortune.
If you talk to her about these things at this time, Zhu Qinghao may not listen. On the contrary, it may provoke her and make her think that she has selfish motives.
So when Sheng Yi heard that Zhu Qinghao wanted to go back to the army with him, he was overjoyed.
He thought that once he got to the military base, or on his way back, he could slowly explain the matter to Zhu Qinghao, and maybe she would understand the reasoning behind it.
He just didn't expect that Grandpa Ma was even faster than him. The sled had barely left the village when the old man said what he wanted to say.
Fortunately, the final result was good.
Zhu Qinghao naturally leaned against Sheng Yi, but she quickly realized what was happening and looked up to ask:
"Ah Yi, did you know that too? Why didn't you tell me about what Grandpa Ma just said earlier?"
Sheng Yi opened his mouth, then closed it again, and finally slowly spoke:
"Because I know that Hao Hao's biggest worry is her family, and I also know that right now, in Hao Hao's heart, her family is much, much more important than me."
If I had said these things to you beforehand, you might have thought I was selfishly trying to coax you into coming with me without considering your family.
Zhu Qinghao opened her mouth to argue, but Sheng Yi anticipated her move and kissed her shut.
"Okay, okay, you don't need to explain or argue. I understand your thoughts and I understand your worries about your family."
But precisely because I understand, I thought it would be more convincing if you saw first that your family was doing well without you. What do you think?
Zhu Qinghao's words caught in her throat. She had to admit that Sheng Yi really understood her, but not enough.
She wasn't the kind of person who was unreasonable. Even if things were explained clearly before leaving, she wouldn't refuse to listen.
As if he could read her mind, Sheng Yi smiled helplessly.
"Okay, okay, of course I know you're not unreasonable and you won't ignore other people's advice, but we've only been married for a few days."
I'm unwilling to take the risk that could negatively impact our relationship or even cause it to break down, so I'm thinking of waiting for a more stable time to tell you.
