When Dadan asked, Su Qinghu answered readily, "Yes."
Yes, you can.
Why not?
In later generations, people yearn for love but do not believe in it. They pay attention to material things but do not care about them entirely.
We pursue soul mates, want to support each other, and envy the idea of growing old together. So getting married seems easy, but it is not easy.
Su Qinghu was certain of one thing about Chen Lie, that as long as she didn't cross his bottom line, he might not be able to achieve soul mateship and share joys and sorrows with her, but it was almost certain that they would grow old together.
This man is very handsome.
After she finished speaking, Dadan and Erdan's eyes widened. They were a little bit unconvinced, but they also wanted to believe it. For a moment, they just stared at her blankly.
"Of course, I agreed, that's right." Su Qinghu bent slightly, propped up his legs, and looked at them almost face to face. "But how long I can stay with him is also a decisive factor."
The wind blew, causing the loose hair on Su Qinghu's cheeks to move slightly, and even lifted a few strands of hair from the high ponytail at the back of her head. The whole person seemed to be immersed in the sun, dazzling and bright.
Erdan stared at her with his eyes wide open, unblinking. They had been together for three or four days, and this was the first time Su Qinghu had left an image in his mind.
nice!
Dadan knew that Su Qinghu was pretty, but she seemed even prettier today. Blinking, he said, "Does that mean we're important too?"
Su Qinghu nodded. "If you guys did something illegal, I would undoubtedly be criticized if I stayed, and even my descendants would be affected. Put yourself in their shoes. If you encountered something like this, would you still stay?"
Erdan: "But my dad is very nice."
Dadan didn't say anything, but his expression showed agreement. Why should their father be held responsible for someone else's mistakes? Even if that someone else might be them and their brother?
He said: "Don't worry, we have no blood relationship with Dad, even if he committed a crime, we will not implicate you."
Su Qinghu was silent, then stood up and said, "Forget it, let's talk about it later."
After returning home with the two children, Su Qinghu was sweating profusely. He forced himself to open the door and sat down on a chair in the living room, unwilling to move anymore.
Erdan hurriedly scooped a teacup of water for her. Su Qinghu shook her head. Seeing that she didn't want it, Erdan picked it up and was about to drink it.
Su Qinghu: "You are not allowed to drink either."
Erdan was puzzled, "I'm thirsty."
"I'll go boil some water." Dadan put the bag of Su Qinghu's daily necessities on the square table, and put the beef and mutton bought from the delicatessen on it. He told Erdan to watch over Su Qinghu, and ran to boil some water.
Erdan moved a stool and sat next to Su Qinghu, looking at her from time to time, and also secretly looking at the cooked food on the square table from time to time.
He thought Su Qinghu had her eyes closed and couldn't see all this, and his mouth was about to drool.
"Take it and share it with your brother." Su Qinghu didn't even open his eyes. "Remember to wash your hands."
Erdan almost jumped up, not because of excitement, but because he was frightened by Su Qinghu's sudden words.
When he realized what it meant, he let out a cry, jumped to the square table in two steps, picked up the cooked food and ran to the kitchen.
Su Qinghu closed his eyes and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
*
After Chen Lie divorced, he took his children to his new residence, which is the courtyard where Su Qinghu lives now.
It was said that the house had been owned by his elders and passed down to him when the property was returned. It had been unoccupied for years, but he had kept it immaculately clean upon his return, a testament to his strong sense of initiative and hands-on ability.
Su Qinghu was very satisfied with this. Chen Lie was very sensible and did not make her feel uncomfortable. He knew that after getting married, he should move to a new place to show respect.
Yes, Su Qinghu knew that she had a bad habit of being territorial, and she could clearly distinguish between other people's territory and her own territory.
Not having to endure the traces of other people's existence made her relax physically and mentally.
In the kitchen, Dadan poured the boiled water to cool it down and handed it to Erdan, "Send it to her."
"Can't you eat a bite of meat first and then give her water?" Erdan pouted, "She told us to eat it."
Dadan's face turned serious, "Send it over first!"
As he spoke, he added a few more buckets of water into the pot and started to light the fire.
Erdan stood there for a while with his neck stiffened, but finally gave in. He carried a white enamel teacup into the living room and called out to Su Qinghu with a smile, "Mom, come and have some water. It's boiled. We tossed it around for a while and it's neither too hot nor too cold, just right for drinking."
"Thank you." Su Qinghu opened his eyes and rested. He stood up, picked up the teacup and took a sip. After taking another sip, he really started to drink.
After finishing the drink, Erdan went to take the teacup as soon as he put down his hand. Su Qinghu waved his hand, indicating that he would do it himself.
She went to the kitchen and Erdan followed her.
"Thank you." Su Qinghu entered the kitchen and rubbed the head of Dadan, who was burning the fire under the stove. "Why don't you use the honeycomb coal stove?"
"We'll use it in the winter." Dadan didn't avoid Su Qinghu's hand. "Coal briquettes still require tickets, and we don't have any. The coal briquettes Dad bought for us are only enough for one month, and they'll be gone once we use them up."
Su Qinghu held her forehead with her hand. How could she have forgotten that the supply based on tickets would have to continue for several more years.
"Let's use it today. I'll find a way to deal with it later." Su Qinghu sighed. It was hot, and the earthen stove made people even hotter.
Dadan was silent for a while, but finally nodded.
Dry firewood is even harder to buy in winter. If the coal briquettes are all burned...
"Why don't you eat meat?" Su Qinghu saw the meat on the chopping board was untouched, and looked at Erdan, "Didn't you explain it clearly to your brother?"
Erdan smiled and said, "My brother said he would wait for you to eat together. I thought about it and decided to wait for you to eat together."
Su Qinghu laughed, walked to the chopping board, picked up the meat with a knife, cut it into slices of even thickness, and arranged them neatly on the plate.
I saw some tender cucumbers nearby, so I washed them, cut them into thin strips, and added salt to remove moisture.
"Knock!"
There was a knock on the door, interrupting Su Qinghu's plan to talk to the two of them.
She looked towards the gate, hesitated for a moment, then looked back at the two of them. "Probably that neighbor."
Both of them knew who the neighbor was, and for a moment they frowned, showing a bit of impatience and violence.
"You really won't tell me?" Su Qinghu said with a smile. After waiting for a few seconds and seeing no response from them, he walked out. "Then I'm going to fight an unprepared battle..."
Erdan didn't know what was going on, and looked at Dadan anxiously, "Brother, tell me!"
He didn't want Su Qinghu to lose the battle. If he lost, the bad neighbor would definitely brag about it to all the neighbors!
He didn't want others to see his brother like that!
Dadan still didn't say anything. Seeing that Su Qinghu's hand was already on the door, he rushed over.
If his brother doesn't say anything, then he will listen carefully and grab her words to make her slap herself in the face, just like the new mother Su Qinghu dealt with the guy named Chang!
