"Oh dear, I have something to do, Mom. I'm leaving now!"
Yang Qinghe had always been a fiery person, one who took action without hesitation.
"You child, your brother already has someone special, and you, as his sister, aren't worried at all? That boy from the Old Zhao Family seems quite nice," her mother said.
With a loud bang, the door slammed shut, cutting off Yang Mother’s words before she could finish.
"Xiao He! Just in time you’re back! Help me persuade your sister; she never gives us a moment's peace!"
"Mom, people say that children will find their own happiness in time. My sister isn’t looking because she hasn’t met someone she likes yet, so don’t worry about it!"
Yang Qinghe understood this well. Before he met Yu Songyu, he found those chattering women quite bothersome. However, once he encountered the right person, everything changed.
"I knew it! You two siblings are just going to breathe the same air!" Yang Mother scolded lightly, though there was a hint of guilt in her tone.
"Xiao He, I know that I didn’t take care of you both enough when you were little. Your father and I were really busy back then. I hope you can forgive us!"
When they were young, their mother was often busy with work and would sometimes be away for days at a time.
Yang Qinghe had practically raised himself and his brother; even going to school meant carrying his brother along.
Not to mention daily life—whenever Yang Qinghe got into fights with other kids, it was always his sister who stepped in to resolve things.
He had seen and remembered all the sacrifices his sister had made over the years. Because of this, his bond with her felt even closer than that with their biological mother.
"Mom, those things are all in the past. But my sister has indeed worked hard. Now that I've grown up, she deserves to enjoy some easier days. So please stop pressuring her to find someone! Her happiness is what matters most."
While he spoke the truth, their mother worried that if they waited too long, all the good ones would be taken, and then it would be too late for her daughter to find happiness.
Yang Mother was genuinely concerned for her daughter, fearing that she might end up alone as an old maid.
"Don’t worry about that! If my sister doesn’t get married for a while, she’ll still have me by her side; she won’t be lonely. Xiao Yu is a wonderful girl; she’ll understand me."
Yang Mother wanted to say more but felt guilty since she hadn’t fulfilled her role as a mother well when she was younger.
Knowing that Yang Qinghe was back home, several childhood friends hardly gave him any time to rest before dragging him out of the house.
"Xiao He, when did your dad say you should come back?"
The one speaking was Li Hu, who had taken care of the siblings since they were little. Yang Qinghe regarded him like an older brother.
Hearing my dad's tone, it seems he wants me to join the military!
Li Hu fell silent for a few seconds, fully aware of Yang Qinghe's family situation.
So, what do you think about that?
I just hope to come back and live a stable life! Ever since he had his Xiao Yu, Yang Qinghe only sought peace and stability. Sister hopes for the same!
Li Hu had always admired Yang Qinghe, but the girl was strong-willed, and he dared not break the ice easily.
It's great that you're coming back to work, Brother Yang. You have no idea how those little rascals, Hu Zhi and his gang, have been giving us trouble now that you guys are away. Now that you're back and Brother Hu is on leave too, how about we set up a meeting this afternoon and deal with them?
Since those kids took off—some went to the military, some went to the countryside—Xiao Liuzi and the others have been bullied quite a bit.
Yeah, Brother Hu, Brother Yang, they act like they can walk all over us!
Another one chimed in, sounding as if he were a child who had been bullied and was now going home to complain to his parents.
Look at you all; you can't even handle a few little rascals. And here you are, shamelessly complaining like kids!
Li Hu shot them a glance filled with disappointment, taking on the role of the elder brother.
Well, it's all our fault for being useless. What about tonight with Old Mo?
Old Mo is fine, but who’s treating?
That kid Hu Xianxu is sharper than a monkey with his tail up; he always has to ask first when something comes up.
Me! Me! Me! Just consider it a welcome dinner for you guys!
Li Hu and Yang Qinghe were genuinely happy to be back; Xiao Liu was thrilled from the bottom of his heart. These two brothers had often defended him against bullies when they were younger.
Alright then, thank you, Brother Liu!
Xiao Liuzi was surprisingly generous as well; Hu Xianxu and Tie Tou both started calling him brother too.
You little rascal! Now that your older brothers are back, do you think you can take part?
Li Hu exchanged a glance with Yang Qinghe through the rearview mirror, both of them smiling.
