The old man was also surprised when he saw a child appear.

　　Then he discovered that there was more than one child. A taller one also came up and protected the short one behind him. Both children looked up at him, their eyes were clear but still full of anger.

　　Being looked at in this way, the old man looked even uglier and more ashamed.

　　”You…whose child are you from?”

　　The old man was so angry: “Didn’t your mother teach you how to talk to your elders?!”

　　”You just said my mother died outside. How could she teach me?”

　　”Uh you…”

　　The old man stared, somewhat speechless.

　　”Also, what did my uncle do to you?!”

　　Shen Chu put his hands on his hips, and his little voice was clear and crisp——

　　”He won’t fall for you!”

　　…There was a moment of silent silence.

　　”puff.”

　　Xiang Xinghe coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and said, “That’s true.”

　　After saying this, the old man was extremely embarrassed.

　　“You…you guys—”

　　”Hey, Old Li, what are you doing? Are you bullying the kids?”

　　A roar came from the side, and a woman wearing a red armband, who looked to be a grandmother in her 50s or 60s, walked over.

　　Xiang Xinghe called out “Aunt Xu”. This was the person he met when he came back last time. It was also she who told him about his family and sister. Aunt Xu had helped him before. He didn’t expect to meet her directly when he came back last time.

　　When Shen Chu saw Xiang Xinghe’s attitude, he thought, wow, isn’t this a helper?

　　So the little fat baby immediately put his little hand on his little belly and bowed obediently –

　　”Hello, grandma.”

　　The little voice is so sweet.

　　Old Li: “…”

　　He had mixed feelings, but Grandma Xu felt relieved after hearing what she heard, especially when she saw how adorable the two children were. So she immediately said “Hey” and bent down to touch the two children’s little faces.

　　”Grandma, are you an outstanding cadre?”

　　Maybe older people like chubby children. Anyway, the more Grandma Xu looked at Shen Chu, the more she liked him. She even wanted to take him away to raise as her own grandson. When she heard Shen Chu ask this, she spoke in a very gentle manner –

　　”Baby, how did you know that?”

　　“This one is red!”

　　Of course, he can read.

　　But sometimes, we can’t be too honest. We need to say it in a different way.

　　”The outstanding children in our class will all receive red flowers. My three older brothers were class leaders in elementary and junior high school, and they also had red armbands like this! I think this is the same principle.”

　　Shen Chu smiled at Grandma Xu: “Grandma, is that right?”

　　”Yeah, you’re such a smart baby.”

　　Grandma Xu was so pleased that when Shen Chu raised his hand and complained to her that the grandfather next to him was bullying his uncle, the old lady went full throttle and was full of energy. Her enthusiasm to protect her child was completely unstoppable!

　　The combination of the big and the small is unmatched…

　　In the end, Old Li could only run away with his face red and neck thick in anger. If he couldn’t afford to provoke someone, he could afford to hide!

　　“Tsk.”

　　Grandma Xu curled her lips, turned around, bent over and patted Shen Chu’s little head: “Baby, don’t argue with that stubborn old man. He has a foul mouth. We should not listen to his foul words. It will affect our mood, okay?”

　　Shen Chu nodded: “This is called not arguing with others. We should be magnanimous, right!”

　　”Yes, yes, that’s absolutely right, haha.” Grandma Xu was so amused.

　　Then she stood up and looked at Xiang Xinghe, her tone couldn’t help but sigh and sigh: “This child is raised so well.”

　　Xiang Xinghe looked at Shen Chu and couldn’t help but have some thoughts.

　　Yes, the Shen family has taken good care of Shen Chu until he grew up. He is a child that people can’t help but like.

　　So…if Shen Chu followed him, if he was allowed to raise him, could he raise him better? Or in other words – could he raise him as well as he is now…At this moment, Xiang Xinghe was not sure.

　　”By the way, you are bringing two children…”

　　Grandma Xu looked at the two children beside him. They were both very well behaved and cute. The short and stocky one who called Xiang Xinghe “uncle” must be Xiang Xingyue’s child. That was why Xiang Xinghe brought the child back at this time…

　　”I bring them over to see it.”

　　Xiang Xinghe didn’t say anything explicitly, but now that things had come to this, Grandma Xu could guess why.

　　”Look, look…”

　　Grandma Xu nodded as she spoke, and suddenly she said “Ouch!” and slapped her forehead, as if she remembered something.

　　”Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you last time that before you came back, someone was asking about your sister.”

　　”Ask about my sister?”

　　Xiang Xinghe frowned: “Do you know who it is?”

　　Grandma Xu shook her head. “Oh, I wanted to ask, but I didn’t see anyone. Someone told me when we were chatting later. You know about your family’s affairs… Everyone knows about it, so the news that your sister had passed away a long time ago must have been told to that person. He must have left after hearing the news.”

　　”Xinghe, if you want to know, can Aunt Xu help you find out more?”

　　Xiang Xinghe hesitated for a moment and subconsciously looked down at Shen Chu.

　　Just at that moment, Shen Chu was also looking up at him——

　　Those round almond-shaped eyes were clear and penetrating, as if they had guessed something, but there was no other unnecessary reaction…

　　So he raised his head again and shook his head: “No, thank you Aunt Xu.”

　　”It should be someone insignificant. Don’t worry about it.”

　　”Okay, fine then.”

　　Grandma Xu rubbed Shen Chu’s little head and said, “Then you should go back and continue packing. No one has come back to visit this house for a long time. If your parents knew that you have such a cute little grandson, they would definitely be very happy.”

　　When talking about his parents, Xiang Xinghe smiled bitterly, unlike him…

　　Seeing Xiang Xinghe like this, Grandma Xu couldn’t help but sigh.

　　”In fact, your parents should have regretted it a little after you left.”

　　Xiang Xinghe couldn’t help but smile bitterly: “How could that be? They threw all my things out. They probably thought I was dirty–“

　　”But they found your things later.”

　　Grandma Xu asked in confusion: “Xinghe, didn’t you see it?”

　　”What–“

　　Xiang Xinghe shook his head in shock: “I didn’t see it…”

　　After saying that, as if he couldn’t wait any longer, Xiang Xinghe took Shen Chu and Xie Shiming with him. Without saying anything more to Grandma Xu, he apologized and said that he wanted to go back and check. He didn’t notice anything when he was packing up before.

　　”Hey, what’s the big deal? Go home quickly, kid.”

　　This half-grown child has grown into an adult, and she has also upgraded from an “aunt” to a “grandmother”. There are many things that she should have been more open-minded about a long time ago. After all, time is ruthless. Looking back, there are always too many things to regret.

　　So in order to avoid regrets, you should know how to let go when it’s time to let go.

　　…

　　Xiang Xinghe returned home with his two children. He had no time to clean the house, so he started looking for his things.

　　He remembered that when he was kicked out of the house, all his belongings were also thrown out mercilessly… just scattered all over the floor, including his self-esteem, everything was thrown away.

　　Xiang Xinghe took only a few things that day and then left.

　　He didn’t know if his things had been picked up or if they had been taken away by someone else as trash. After all, there were too many people watching, so he couldn’t notice anyone…

　　Because there were already too many eyes on him.

　　Just thinking about this, my thoughts drifted away.

　　At this time, Shen Chu suddenly spoke:

　　”Uncle! Here, here!”

　　A door was opened, and Shen Chu and Xie Shiming were standing at the door, waving at him.

　　Xiang Xinghe stopped where he was and was unable to move over for a while.

　　Because it was his room…

　　So those things were put back in his room?

　　The room that was smashed up?

　　When he came back earlier, Xiang Xinghe subconsciously ignored the room he had lived in, but now…

　　He walked over slowly and saw that although there was still no furniture inside, there were indeed many things placed on the ground. Moreover, compared to other places, the things in this room were obviously covered with dust-proof cloth.

　　Shen Chu ran over first, and then lifted the dust cover closest to him——

　　”Pfft–Pfft!”

　　The little chubby baby’s face was wrinkled into a ball, and he immediately let go of the dust cloth. His two chubby hands flew around wildly, as if he wished he could turn into an octopus and sweep away all the dust!

　　Xie Shiming quickly held Shen Chu’s little face and pressed him into the crook of his neck, but he was also attacked by the dust… In the end, both children became “little gray men”.

　　Even all of Xiang Xinghe’s emotions were almost shattered by the dust…

　　”You, why are you in such a hurry? Don’t you know it’s all dust?”

　　Xiang Xinghe walked over reluctantly and knocked on Shen Chu’s head.

　　Shen Chu pouted: “Then I want to make my uncle happy sooner.”

　　Hearing this, Xiang Xinghe couldn’t help but sigh.

　　This child…always makes him feel warm.

　　The better his nephew was, the more Xiang Xinghe couldn’t make up his mind…

　　…

　　Putting this question aside for the moment, Shen Chu began to talk enthusiastically about wanting to see his old things. With a dirty face, like a child who had picked up rags from somewhere, he even made Xie Shiming look dirty and dusty.

　　Xiang Xinghe wanted to wipe the two children first, but the little fat boy wiped his face and said boldly: “That’s it!”

　　Looking at the black marks that were getting dirtier and dirtier on that fair and tender face, Xiang Xinghe: “…”

　　You are good enough. You have done enough.

　　But Shen Chu just stuck to him without moving, so Xiang Xinghe could only show him what was under the dust cover first –

　　There are his textbooks and awards from childhood to adulthood, as well as many toys, basketballs and footballs, handicrafts he made when he was a child, and… family albums with him and his family.

　　The photo album that I was not allowed to take with me when I left before.

　　[What are you doing with it? Are you going to show it to others?! And then tell others that we two gave birth to you who likes a man?! You are not ashamed, but we are! ]

　　[…I’d rather it be thrown into the trash than be taken away by you! ]

　　Those words still ring in my ears.

　　There was also my sister’s crying and begging… but unfortunately it was all useless and could not outweigh the scolding.

　　His legs were broken, and he was locked up for a long time. They even thought about sending him to the hospital…

　　He took a large sum of money from others and even helped himself drop out of school.

　　Xiang Xinghe was full of hatred and was disappointed enough, so in the end, he left without looking back.

　　Since he can’t change, he will cut off ties with him, so he won’t force it anymore.

　　But what is happening now?

　　Why should he retrieve the things he threw away mercilessly after he left? !

　　…

　　Shen Chu had been standing by and watching. From listening to Xiang Xinghe showing him the old things to Xiang Xinghe turning to the album and remaining silent, he couldn’t help but look at Xie Shiming.

　　Xie Shiming understood what he meant, rubbed his hair, turned around and went out, closing the door behind them.

　　Afterwards, Shen Chu raised his hands and hugged Xiang Xinghe. His short arms were not enough to hug his uncle, but they still looked very “powerful”. His chubby arms pressed tightly against Xiang Xinghe’s neck, and his chubby hands patted him again and again.

　　The warm touch is very obvious.

　　Xiang Xinghe’s body couldn’t help but tremble.

　　”Chuchu…”

　　”You can understand what the grandfather said earlier, right?”

　　”You know your uncle is——”

　　”Uncle, is this the reason you left home?”

　　Shen Chu raised his little body and kept a little distance.

　　Xiang Xinghe pulled the corner of his mouth and said in a hoarse voice: “Yes, they don’t want me anymore.”

　　”Then Chuchu wants you, okay?”

　　Little Fatty patted his chest and said seriously, “Mom definitely wants uncle too, but now that mom is gone, Chuchu will take care of uncle. Uncle hasn’t done anything wrong, so how can I not want uncle? Uncle is so good–“

　　When he said this, Shen Chu deliberately opened his hands, stretching his two short arms as long as possible.

　　Xiang Xinghe couldn’t help laughing: “Is your uncle so good?”

　　Shen Chu nodded vigorously and vigorously: “Yes!”

　　”Then Chuchu is better.”

　　”Uncle is better.”

　　”It’s still baby who is better.”

　　Shen Chu hummed and nodded: “Okay, I’m definitely better, so I won’t be modest.”

　　At this moment, Xiang Xinghe burst into laughter.

　　Then he couldn’t help but hug the child in front of him into his arms.

　　”Baby, they said they don’t want me anymore, why don’t they just keep doing this and pick up my things again–“

　　Xiang Xinghe’s voice couldn’t help but choke with sobs.

　　”If they had always been like that, I wouldn’t be like that now…”

　　At least he wouldn’t be in so much pain.

　　At least he could still find some excuses for himself.

　　I couldn’t say any more, only my shoulders were shaking uncontrollably.

　　Shen Chu didn’t know what to say, so he could only keep patting his uncle’s shoulders.

　　In fact, he was also very surprised when he first heard it.

　　But maybe he had already noticed something was wrong between his uncle and Brother Jian Xing, so after being surprised, he was not too surprised. But then he thought about why his uncle had been abroad all these years…

　　This isn’t hard to relate to.

　　So when Shen Chu thought of this, he felt more heartbroken.

　　He also regretted more and more why he had not left with his uncle before.

　　How miserable and lonely must my uncle have felt at that time…

　　So after a while, when Xiang Xinghe had calmed down a little, Shen Chu patted Xiang Xinghe’s head with his little hand——

　　”Uncle, you need to learn more about the baby’s preferences.”

　　”Um?”

　　Xiang Xinghe had to look up at Shen Chu, wondering why the topic suddenly turned to this place?

　　”Actually, I’m pretty easy to raise. Uncle, you just need to know what I like to eat and play with.”

　　”Oh yeah, and—”

　　Little Fatty stood on tiptoe and patted Xiang Xinghe on the shoulder: “Also, uncle needs to make more money. Raising a child is still very expensive. Although I am very sensible, I will cry for you when I am not sensible!”

　　”Baby, you…”

　　Xiang Xinghe opened his mouth, somewhat incredulous.

　　As a result, he saw his little nephew grinning at him, laughing happily –

　　”Uncle, didn’t I tell you before?”

　　”I’ve always wanted to go with my uncle.”
