Monster Tea Party

Chapter 5424 Face to Face

The woodcutter was silent.

……

The woman finished.

She looked at the woodcutter with some anxiety.

……

"My husband, everything I said is true."

Seeing that the woodcutter did not respond, the woman could not help but emphasize.

"I really didn't..."

"I just……"

……

The woodcutter came back to his senses.

He waved his hand to interrupt the woman's explanation.

"I believe you."

The woman's explanation makes sense.

He was just confused by what the woman said.

"you……"

"I really saw my brother..."

……

After a brief pause, the woman nodded, "Really."

"Otherwise I wouldn't have come to peek again at night."

He was just in time to be seen by a woodcutter.

It almost caused a disaster.

If the woodcutter didn't believe her...

She didn't know what to do...

……

Fortunately, the worst did not happen.

The woman was very happy.

After listening to her explanation, the woodcutter believed her.

He also asked about his younger brother.

Since she asked about her brother, it means that the misunderstanding about her is really over.

The woodcutter didn't care.

The woman breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly I felt that my brother’s problem was not so difficult.

……

The woodcutter frowned.

Auntie said...

He doesn't have to care.

Although his aunt was somewhat related to him by blood, she was almost like a stranger to him.

But women are different.

The woman is his wife.

He was able to get over the early death of his parents so early, on the one hand because his younger brother needed his care, and on the other hand because of the woman's company.

He knew he had to be strong.

This family needs him to support it.

He is the pillar of the family.

His younger brother and son are his only remaining family members.

What the woman said...

There was no way he wasn't serious.

……

The woman would not lie to him.

Why did the woman lie to him?

They are one as husband and wife.

……

but……

It was hard for the woodcutter to understand...

He is really hard to understand...

younger brother……

What my aunt said that day...

Is it true?

It turns out that my aunt really saw my brother talking to someone... It seems...
After all, both the aunt and the woman were very sure that there was no one else in my brother's room.

this point……

In fact, even if they didn't say it, he still thought so.

My younger brother studied hard.

In addition, due to my personality, I don’t have any friends close enough to visit my home.

……

"Did you actually see him talking to anyone?"

Mrs. Woodcutter couldn't help but ask again.

……

"Ah."

The woman nodded.

"It seems to me that it is."

As for whether my brother was really talking to someone...

she does not know.

After all, the so-called talking to people cannot be done by one person alone.

But she didn't see the second person.

The answer to this question…

Maybe……

Only their younger brother can give it to them.

but……

Are they going to ask their brother?
Such a-
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes.

It may even seem like a ridiculous question.

Will my brother be angry?

Angry that they doubted him like that?

What if the truth is not what she sees?
……

"I'll go ask my brother."

……

The woman caught a glimpse of the woodcutter taking a step forward from the corner of her eye, and immediately reached out and grabbed him.

"and many more!"

The woman had not yet fully recovered from what the woodcutter had just said.

This grab...

The woman came back to her senses.

She looked at the woodcutter.

A look of surprise.

"you……"

"Should I ask him directly?"

……

"Ah."

The woodcutter nodded.

"I can't figure it out myself."

The woman couldn't figure it out either.

Since they couldn't figure it out... in order to get an answer, they naturally had to meet the protagonist... and let the person concerned give them an answer.

……

"..."

Seeing the woodcutter's as if it was a matter of course, the woman opened her mouth.

half an hour...

The woman made a sound.

"But……"

"You're not worried..."

"If it's fake, my brother will be very angry...right..."

Definitely.

When she heard her aunt talk about this, she still felt angry even though her aunt was not talking about her.

She could imagine her brother's expression when he heard it.

……

It was because of this that the woman was so cautious about verifying the matter with her brother.

Even he was cautious about telling the woodcutter about it.

……

As a result, the woodcutter made this decision easily.

The woman was surprised.

The woodcutter will not...

Are you really angry?

……

If it's true...

The woman didn't dare to think about it.

But if it's true...

My younger brother is the most pitiful one.

How could the woodcutter vent his anger on his brother?

If it's fake...

It's all their guess.

She expressed what she saw and understood...

My brother did nothing.

Why should I be angry with my brother?

……

"I know."

The woodcutter nodded.

There is no doubt about this.

Anyone who is suspected in this way will be angry.

but……

“Problems don’t solve themselves.”

Since my aunt and the girl have discovered the same problem...

They're going to fix it.

"Actually, Auntie is right."

The woodcutter clenched his fists tightly.

“The problem is early detection.”

“Solve it as soon as possible.”

The problem is not that if you just leave it alone it will resolve itself.

Do nothing...

Maybe it will make things...

Irreversible.

……

This is a result that the woodcutter definitely does not want to see.

……

After a brief moment of stunned silence, the woman nodded slowly.

That's right.

The woodcutter said...

Makes sense.

She only thought about her brother's feelings...

But I forgot...

If my brother really had a problem because he was buried in his studies...

Her hesitation at this time is delaying the treatment of the disease.

If her hesitation leads to irreversible consequences...

She is simply...

He is to blame for all the crimes.

……

"it is good."

The woman nodded.

"Then ask your brother."

Directly "confront" your brother face to face.

If I really made a mistake...

They apologized to their brother.

Isn’t it a simple thing?
Why did she think so complicated before?
The woman suddenly understood.

……

Because they really care about their brother...

My younger brother shouldn't blame them too much.

She would make some delicious food to compensate her brother then...

……

The more the woman thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case. She wondered what she had been doing wrong before.
……

Maybe he was frightened by his own speculation about his brother's inexplicable behavior?

The woman smiled bitterly.

……

The woodcutter nodded.

He took another step.

……

The woman reached out and grabbed the woodcutter again.

……

The woodcutter looked at the woman.

……

The woman raised her eyes and looked at the dark night.

The bright moon hangs high in the sky.

The faint moonlight spread.

……

"It's too late today."

The woman looked at the woodcutter.

"Let's talk to my brother tomorrow."

"My brother has been reading all day."

"Tired too."

If you hear them talk about this kind of thing again, people who were originally fine will probably become troubled.

……

"Let my brother have a good rest."

"We're going back too..."
