But why does this voice sound so reluctant?

There is even a bit of gnashing of teeth.

Xu Shuxin raised the corners of her lips slightly, comforting her father, "Father, you see uncle and the others have promised to take good care of my grandma, then let's go back."

Xu Qingmu lowered his head, looking dejected, "Okay, let's go home."

The members of the commune were very surprised to see that their father and daughter had gone back.

"Qingmu, you are going back now? Didn't you say that your mother is not good?"

Xu Qingmu forcefully squeezed out a smile, said nothing, and then left.

Xu Shuxin said: "My uncle and they won't let my father stay."

After finishing speaking, she also dragged Sixth Sister away.

Leave the confused members.

But from Xu Shuxin's words, everyone made a rough guess.

Of course, it doesn't matter if it's right or not, as long as they think it's right, it's right.

Xu Shuxin waited out of the village, and there was no one around, so she couldn't help asking Xu Qingmu, "Father, what does my grandma mean by outsiders?"

Xu Qingmu lowered his head and looked into the bright eyes of the little girl, embarrassed.

At this moment, he could not see the previous tension and loss on his face.

Just as he was about to speak, the sixth girl also looked at him curiously, "Father, is there really someone outside our grandfather?"

He raised his hand and rubbed the sixth girl's head angrily, "How old are you, do you know what it means that there are people outside?"

Xu Shuyan frowned, dissatisfied with his actions, and even more dissatisfied with being underestimated, "Why don't you know, isn't my grandfather going to find us a step-grandmother?"

She is seven years old, not a three-year-old child.

She has heard the gossip of the women in the team a lot, so she naturally knows what it means.

Xu Qingmu was speechless for a moment, "...don't listen to those nonsense from now on."

Xu Shuyan nodded, and didn't say whether to listen or not, "Father, tell us quickly, do we really want a step-grandmother?"

"Sixth Sister, how do you hear what you mean? You really want us to have a step-grandmother?" Xu Shuxin asked, very curious in her words.

Xu Qingmu also looked at the sixth girl curiously, waiting for her answer.

"I don't really think about it, but if there is a step-grandmother, then the people over there will definitely be in chaos, so they won't have time to think about our family."

Xu Shuxin: "...Sixth sister, you think so far!"

Xu Qingmu said unhappily to the sixth daughter: "What are you thinking about, your grandma is still fine, how could there be a step-grandmother, and your grandpa is already at this age..."

Even if Mrs. Xu is gone, old man Xu is 61 years old and full of children and grandchildren. If he still finds a woman, even if he ignores the jokes of the team members, he will be powerless.

What is he drawing?
Xu Shuyan blinked, "Father, you haven't told me and Xinxin yet, what does my grandma mean?"

"It's been so many years, and you're the ones who are confused. You're still talking about it now. Also, don't ask me about the elders. You are young. It's not good if someone overhears you."

Xu Shuyan shook his hand coquettishly, "Father, we want to know!"

Xu Shuxin did the same thing on the other side, "Father, just tell us, we are very tight-lipped, and we will never say anything."

"That's not OK."

Xu Qingmu is still able to stick to the principles, no matter how the two daughters act like a baby, they just don't say anything.

The two sisters looked at each other and knew that they couldn't learn anything from their father, so they gave up.

However, Xu Shuxin also knew that old man Xu must have been involved with women outside before, and her father knew about it, but Uncle Xu and the others were kept in the dark.

But after Mrs. Xu's bald mouth today, Uncle Xu and the others should also have doubts in their hearts.

Since old man Xu couldn't find out about his affairs, Xu Shuxin asked another question, "Father, I don't think you are worried about my grandma at all now, so what you did before was to lie to outsiders?"

Xu Qingmu was silent for a moment, then sighed, and then said: "Yanyan, Xinxin, Dad said he wasn't worried about your milk being fake at all, but he didn't worry too much. As for the previous performance, it was also... I pretended to show people outside. People sympathize with the weak. Although Dad had a bad life before, but if I didn't look nervous when your milk fell, everyone would think that Dad was wrong."

He actually had another purpose, to stir up his mother's dissatisfaction with his sons.

You see, how much you loved them before, how did they treat you in the end?

However, he did not say these things.

He doesn't think it's good to talk to children about it.

But even though he didn't say it, Xu Shuxin still guessed it.

She didn't say anything, but asked him, "Why should we care what they think?"

Xu Qingmu looked at the two daughters tenderly, "Although we say that we live our own lives, we still have to communicate with others, so we can't completely ignore other people's opinions. Of course, if we do nothing wrong like your elder sister, we can ignore it. When we hear others gossip, we should immediately refute it."

Xu Qingmu has never read a book, and he doesn't know how to talk to his daughters, so he can only tell them in the words he understands, "If I act cold-blooded in this matter today, others will think that I have no human touch, and I don't care about my own mother's life or death. They will definitely not dare to work with me in the future."

"We will live in the Peace Corps for a long, long time in the future. We can have less contact with them, but you have to have contact with them, you know? It's okay if you don't understand, and you will gradually understand when you grow up."

Xu Shuxin nodded, "Father, I understand."

She looked at Sixth Sister, and saw that Sixth Sister had a clear look.

While talking, the father and daughter returned home.

Seeing them coming back, Cui Lanhua greeted them, "Are you back? Why have you been gone for so long? What did mother tell you?"

Xu Qingmu didn't want to talk to her about those unpleasant things.

But she was afraid that if she didn't say anything, if the people behind her came to make trouble for her, she wouldn't know anything, so she would agree in a daze.

Another one, even if she didn't say anything, she might still hear the so-called story from other people in the afternoon that was spread thousands of miles away from the truth.

So, he told the story again, not even missing Mrs. Xu's injury.

In the end, I still didn't forget to tell her, "I see that father and elder brother don't seem to want to send mother to the hospital, and I don't know what will happen to mother in the future. If the injury is really serious and needs someone to take care of it, don't go there and tell you, just push it to me."

"This...isn't it good?" Cui Lanhua hesitated, "It's not good to spread the word."

Although Cui Lanhua didn't want to go to take care of Mrs. Xu, but Mrs. Xu was also her man's mother, her mother-in-law, if her mother-in-law needed someone to take care of her and refused to go, wouldn't she be called unfilial?
