Chapter 5938 Rejection
In the middle of the night, the relatives who came to help left one after another. Mother He was overwhelmed with grief and fell ill on the bed. He Lianer, the younger sister of the He family, stayed with Mother He to take care of her.

In the mourning hall, Father He, who was physically and mentally exhausted, accompanied Xiao An to watch the spirit.

In the dead of night, when all the hustle and bustle had subsided, Father He stroked He Qingsong's ashes urn, and asked them about what had happened on the way to the south for errands.

Xiao An told Father He everything in detail, including the fact that He Qingsong temporarily changed his mind to go to the Camellia Camellia Village to buy camellia oleifera cakes on the way back.

Xiao An deliberately concealed the thrilling three days and three nights of confrontation with the wolves. He didn't tell Father He, and he almost couldn't come back.

He only valued the facts, the fact is that he came back alive, but his good brother left forever.

Father He was silent for a long time after hearing this.

"Xiao'an, I know all about your friendship with Qingsong. Qingsong didn't say much when he came back."

In the middle of the night, Father He's voice was hoarse and desolate. Under the dim oil lamp, he seemed to have aged more than ten years.

"Qingsong told us that in the southern battlefield, you blocked knives for him several times. Without you, his life would have been lost on the battlefield."

"I don't blame you for what happened this time, if you were the one at that time, you would have pushed Qingsong away."

"If you want to blame it, blame Qingsong for having a bad life and bad luck, for not escaping this calamity..."

Xiao An raised her head, tears streaming down her face.

He suddenly knelt down with a bang: "Uncle He, if you and your aunt don't dislike me, I will be your son from now on, and I will take care of you until the end of your life!"

Father He shook his head with tears in his eyes.

"Xiao An, you are a good boy, we appreciate your kindness."

This is...rejection?
Xiao An was stunned.

Father He continued: "Qingsong is gone, and we don't have much interest in staying here to take care of the shop. Your aunt and I plan to take Qingsong and Lian'er back to our hometown village after the funeral and bury Qingsong in our hometown. "

"I'll go with you!" Xiao An said.

"No need." Father He said.

He looked up at the shop where he had lived for a year and a half, and the light in his eyes faded little by little.

"This shop is about to expire. We plan to retire. We will pack up our money and go back to our hometown to rest for a while. Although our hometown is not as prosperous as this Qing'an County, there is still a small yard with an acre of land, plus you Aunt's physical condition is not suitable for staying here anymore, she can't stand the neighbors pointing at her."

Xiao An sat slumped on the ground, not knowing how to say a thousand words.

He wanted to do something for them, but He's father wouldn't let him do anything.This feeling is very bad!
Father He didn't have the energy to tell Xiao An too much about his future plans.

For a middle-aged man who left his hometown when he was a teenager and came to Qing'an County to find work, lost his son, and lost his dreams and pursuits, now, returning to his hometown with his wife and daughter is like shrinking into a tortoise. Shell-like.

Only by retracting into his turtle shell can he lick the wound.

As for the future, he didn't dare to think about it, and it would no longer make sense to think about it. His only son was gone...

Because she made up her mind to go to He's house to burn incense sticks, Yang Ruoqing didn't want to catch Xiao An by surprise by suddenly appearing in front of her. After much deliberation, she still got up in the middle of the night and quietly went to He's house by the river.

As soon as she left the door of the restaurant, someone followed behind her, and she knew who it was without turning her head.
