Rebirth of an Old Farmer: Escape from Famine with Children and Grandchildren
Chapter 146 The Only One to Rely On
Su Rongze took the teacup and smiled gently, "Sister is so brave, how can I, as a brother, be willing to be left behind?"
He knew that no matter what happened, the two siblings could support each other and cope with it together.
Su Guiying smiled even more brightly.
In order to avoid Sun Wan's eyes, these plans were arranged behind her back.
Sun Wan has not been in good health recently and has been recuperating, so she did not notice many changes taking place at home.
The vegetables and fruits in the garden are already abundant, and there are also a large number of chickens and ducks.
However, after harvesting these things, Sun Wan stopped planting new things and sold most of the poultry.
Faced with this long-abandoned vegetable garden, she couldn't help feeling a little lost and irritated.
Just when I was thinking about finding an opportunity to have a good talk with Su Xu, I didn't expect the guest to come uninvited.
"General Bai's wife?"
Sun Wan frowned slightly, put down the bowl in her hand, and looked at the person who came in confusion.
The sudden situation made her feel a little overwhelmed.
"Where is Su Xu?"
She asked the maid.
His words were full of urgency, as if he wanted to find out what had happened as soon as possible.
The maid seemed a little embarrassed: "The general hasn't come back today. This is the wife of the general's colleague who is visiting. It's really hard to refuse."
Hearing that it was the family of her husband's colleague who came to visit, Sun Wan decided to let her in. "Then please invite her in. Now that she's here, we can't turn her away."
The maid nodded and turned to leave, but was stopped by another voice.
The visitor hurriedly saluted the maid: "Miss Su."
Su Yuelian was not in a good mood. She had just heard a few days ago that Vice General Lin was looking for a place for her to live. The house was being renovated and she would have to move out soon.
This news made her sad all night. She couldn't believe that Su Xu was so cruel to her.
The two have worked together for so many years, and now that he has found his wife, he is going to abandon her!
In the past few days, Su Yuelian's eyes were always swollen. She deliberately let Su Xu see her appearance in the hope of attracting his attention, but he did not react at all.
On the other side, Lieutenant General Lin was also busy preparing for the relocation.
All this made Su Yuelian completely disheartened.
She was not the kind of person who would cling to others, and the only reason she stayed here was because of Su Xu.
Now even he has chosen to let go, which aroused the last bit of self-esteem in her heart - if that's the case, then just leave. Is it really impossible to live without him?
But every time I think of this, my heart still aches.
Because of this incident, Su Yuelian has lost a lot of weight in recent days.
One day when he was strolling out, he met Sun Wan's maid who was in a hurry to get on the road.
Almost instinctively, Su Yuelian called out to her.
The maid stopped and looked over here. Only then did Su Yuelian realize that she had been a little rash just now.
Since I had already called him, I had no choice but to ask, "Where are you going in such a hurry?"
The maid replied truthfully, "General Bai's wife is here to visit my master, and I'm going to go and welcome her in."
This sentence brought back a bitter feeling in Su Yuelian's heart.
Looking at this scene, even though they haven't actually moved into their new home yet, they've already started inviting guests...
She quickly pictured General Bai's wife in her mind.
He seems like a very difficult person to approach.
Su Yuelian thought for a moment and said, "Then you can go and do your work. I will go find my wife myself."
"Although I don't know much about this White Lady, I do have some opinions."
The maid was naturally happy to hear this, and she agreed and left.
Su Yuelian walked into Qingheng Courtyard.
As soon as I stepped into the yard, I saw spears and swords in the corner, as well as several wooden stakes used for practicing martial arts.
It's obvious that these weapons and stakes are frequently used.
In the mansion, there is only one person who can easily control this heavy gun.
Su Yuelian's face darkened slightly.
After taking the medicine, Sun Wan felt sluggish.
She was very surprised to see Su Yuelian visiting suddenly.
Since that unpleasant separation, she has never contacted Su Yuelian again to avoid embarrassment to each other.
Su Xu was afraid that she would have wild thoughts, so he told her bits and pieces about the things that happened between them during this period.
Initially, Su Xu rescued Su Yuelian during the refugee crisis.
At that time, the hungry people even began to kill each other. Children had almost no chance of survival, and Su Yuelian, as the youngest and most fragile girl, was in a very dangerous situation.
At the critical moment, it was Su Xu who led a team to rescue her and saved her from danger.
As for those refugees who lost their minds, they did not end up well in the end.
Later, in the military camp, Su Yuelian assisted Su Xu in resolving crises many times.
Su Xu often said that she had great talent in military equipment and reconnaissance.
He is a rare talent.
He is not only a martial arts expert, but also very experienced in dealing with people, and has a very good reputation in the martial arts world.
As for the feelings, they were formed gradually, but the two never crossed the line.
This emotion is like a piece of ice slowly melting in the spring, slowly warming up but never fully flowing.
The relationship between them is like a rope tied by invisible shackles, and they can never break free from the invisible boundaries between them.
Su Xu’s main concern was that he was ten years older than her and didn’t want to ruin her good time.
In Su Xu's eyes, he has passed his best age. Facing such a young and beautiful girl, he always feels that he is not suitable for her and is afraid that his existence will hinder her future.
He believes that Su Yuelian should have a more suitable partner who is of the same age as her and can work hand in hand with her.
Most people might think that being liked by a girl ten years younger than them is a good thing, but Su Xu thinks it is not appropriate.
Although it seems like a sweet attachment on the surface, in Su Xu's opinion, this is just the little girl's momentary confusion, which may not last long. It may also be just an illusion of dependence on elders.
He was full of a sense of responsibility and didn't want her to make a choice she would regret because of this temporary emotional impulse.
The little girl has not yet experienced the hardships of life, and may have confused his life-saving grace with dependence.
During that dangerous rescue operation, Su Yuelian was greatly shocked and impacted.
From then on, she was filled with infinite gratitude towards him and even regarded him as her only support.
But Su Xu clearly realized that true love is far more than simple worship or admiration, but is based on full understanding and equal respect between the two parties.
Su Yuelian's current mentality may be too simple, and she fails to distinguish the different meanings of gratitude and true love.
Besides, Su Yuelian has been helping the army, so Su Xu feels that it would be more appropriate to encourage her to pursue her own ideals rather than let her stay at home.
He knew that the girl had lofty patriotic feelings and the ideal of serving the country.
