Reborn at 80: From Village Scoundrel to Billionaire

The speaker was Zhao Chunyan.

Liu Bei pretended not to hear, and instead gripped Su Yuehe's hand even tighter.

"There's something I need to tell you!"

"What's wrong?" Su Yuehe's tone sounded somewhat urgent.

"Your father-in-law and mother-in-law miss you and the child very much. You two need to go back," Liu Bei said.

"Okay. We'll go back on Mother's sixtieth birthday!" Su Yuehe's body suddenly stiffened.

Because she hadn't seen her parents for six years.

honestly,

It's impossible not to think about them.

But at that time, her mind was entirely on her child.

She worried that if she left the Liu family and raised her child alone, people would gossip about her, which would be detrimental to the child's development.

For the sake of the children,

She can tolerate anything.

This includes going back to one's parents' home and reuniting with one's sisters.

It's fair to say that they gave up too much.

Now—

Liu Bei has changed for the better.

Life at home is getting better every day.

My daughter, Niannian, is becoming more and more sensible.

There's hope for everything now.

It's time to go back and see my parents.

"No, we'll go tomorrow!" Liu Bei shook his head, not quite agreeing.

"Huh? Why? Mother's sixtieth birthday is only five days away. Is there any need to be in such a hurry?" Su Yuehe was a little confused.

"Listen to me. Take the child back tomorrow," Liu Bei advised again.

"You and the child haven't been back for six years. The old folks miss you both terribly. I'm going today. My mother-in-law has been crying the whole time. She's getting old, and her health can't take the strain. You should go back and see them as soon as possible. Put their minds at ease. Do you understand?"

"Liu Bei—"

"What's wrong?" Liu Bei was slightly taken aback.

"Thank you!" Su Yuehe hugged Liu Bei tightly again.

His eyes betrayed him, and tears streamed down his face, soaking Liu Bei's shoulder instantly.

Although Fanjiacun and Sujiacun both belong to the same town.

One village is located on the east side of the town, and the other on the west side, with the two villages more than 20 miles apart.

It could be described as marrying far away.

For a girl who has married far away, it is really, really difficult to return to her parents' home.

She didn't realize it before she got married.

Only after marrying into the family did she realize she was right.

Especially after having children and dealing with a bunch of other things, it becomes even more difficult to go back to one's parents' home.

And she was no exception.

The delay lasted for six years.

I haven't been home to visit my parents for six years.

I wonder if the two elders have lost weight or gained weight?

How many more wrinkles have appeared on my face?

How much whiter have the two hair buns on the sides become?

Is the house still the same as before?

Does she still have the room she had before she got married?

As I thought about it,

Su Yuehe cried even louder.

Liu Bei gently patted her back. "Alright. Don't cry. You'll see your parents tomorrow. If you ruin your eyes from crying, they'll blame me when you see them! Yuehe, I think you don't want that, do you?"

"Okay. I understand."

Su Yuehe stopped crying after hearing this and distanced herself from Liu Bei.

Liu Bei wiped away the two lines of tears from her face, smiled, and said, "Let's go into the yard! I'll go return the tractor!"

"good!"

Su Yuehe nodded and was about to walk towards the courtyard.

"etc!"

She had only taken a few steps when Liu Bei called her again. She slowly turned around. "What's wrong?"

Liu Bei picked up a newspaper from the back of the tractor and handed it to Su Yuehe. "There are two candied hawthorns wrapped in this newspaper. One is for Niannian, and the other is for Xiaobao. Take them and let them eat them!"

"Okay!" Su Yuehe nodded and walked into the courtyard with the candied hawthorn.

Just came in,

She saw her daughter Niannian and her brother Xiaobao blocking Panpan from both sides.

Panpan is eating candied hawthorn.

With each inhale, Niannian and Xiaobao's eyes would widen a little, and they would swallow a few times; the sound of them swallowing saliva could be heard from a great distance.

"Niannian, come on, have a sip!" Panpan handed the candied hawthorn to her younger sister Niannian.

"No!" Niannian shook her head. "I don't want to eat my sister's saliva!"

Panpan: "..."

Niannian then said, "I want to eat fresh food!"

Panpan: "..."

After a moment's hesitation, she handed the candied hawthorn back to Xiaobao, saying, "Xiaobao, here, you eat it!"

Xiao Bao shook his head, "No. I won't eat...big sister's...saliva..."

Panpan: "..."

What's wrong with my younger sister and brother today? Usually, when she asks for something delicious, they'll fight over it, but today they don't want it at all.

Who taught you?

"If you don't eat, I'll finish it all, and then there won't be any left!" Panpan pretended to finish eating.

really.

Niannian and Xiaobao, the siblings, finally couldn't hold back any longer.

At the same time, he reached out and snatched it.

"Nian Nian!"

Just as they were about to succeed in snatching it, Su Yuehe's voice suddenly rang out.

The thought abruptly stopped, and she slowly turned around to look.

But then I saw my mother holding two fresh candied hawthorns.

"Candied hawthorn berries?"

Nian Nian exclaimed in surprise.

Xiao Bao also looked over curiously.

When his round eyes saw the fresh candied hawthorns, he ran towards Su Yuehe without saying a word.

"Second Aunt, I want to eat! Second Aunt, I want to eat!"

He ran and talked.

Soon, Xiao Bao ran up to Su Yuehe.

"Here you go. Eat slowly!" Su Yuehe handed one over.

"Mmm!" Xiao Bao grabbed the candied hawthorn and couldn't wait to start eating.

I took a big bite, and as I ate it, a long strand of sugar stretched out in my mouth.

I'm so envious of it.

"Mom, I want some too!"

"Here you go! Eat slowly. Nobody's going to take it from you!"

"Um!"

After receiving the candied hawthorn, Niannian didn't take a big bite like Xiaobao.

She inhaled slowly.

Enjoy the pleasure of candied hawthorn little by little.

Seeing her younger brother and sister eating in completely different ways, Panpan shook herself and continued eating her candied hawthorn.

This time, she ate very quickly.

Even faster than Xiaobao,

Swallow one in one gulp.

Seeing the three children enjoying themselves, Su Yuehe smiled.

At this moment, Zhao Chunyan came closer and pulled her away a little.

"Sister Chunyan, what's wrong?"

"What did Liu Bei just whisper to you about?"

"No...it's nothing."

"Nothing much, and you were talking so quietly? Do you think I'd believe that? Tell me honestly, did he force you to sleep with him tonight?"

Su Yuehe: "..."

What kind of inappropriate and offensive language is that?

The children are still here.

"Sister Chunyan, you...you've misunderstood. He...he didn't..."

"Then explain yourself, what secret did he whisper to you?"

Zhao Chunyan pressed on relentlessly, not believing Su Yuehe's words at all.

"He said...he said..." Su Yuehe stammered, "He said that Niannian and I should go back to my parents' home tomorrow!"

"Going back to your parents' home? That's it?" Zhao Chunyan raised her eyebrows, still somewhat skeptical.

"Okay." Su Yuehe nodded. "So I can't go to town to set up a stall tomorrow. I'll have to trouble Chunyan and Wanqiu!"

"Really?" Zhao Chunyan was still a little uneasy.

"Hmm!" Su Yuehe nodded again, and to put Zhao Chunyan at ease, she added, "If I lied and didn't go back to my parents' house with Niannian tomorrow, I... I'll be born without an anus if I have any more children."
