Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space-Chapter 639 Night Talks

"Well, it was Uncle Lv who helped with mom and dad’s burial. He paid for everything."

"I know, and I will repay Uncle Lv. When we go back, I’ll ask Uncle Lv to say a few words in front of mom and dad’s grave, and when we return, we’ll kowtow to them."

The siblings talked for a long time until they both got tired and went to sleep.

Lv Beiguang lay down with his son, feeling much more at ease.

"Guodong, how has this year been for you?"

"Dad, you’ve worked hard in the past."

Hearing this, Lv Beiguang’s eyes turned red instantly. Getting the understanding of his children made everything worth it.

"You must have suffered a lot this past year, right?"

"It was okay, but working here was tough and very exhausting. Back then, Jing Chu cried every night, and Sister Xiaoli massaged her arms, but it was still very tiring."

"I know, I’ve done farm work myself. I know how exhausting it is. My son is amazing for sticking it out."

"I’m the older brother, and if it weren’t for Jing Chu, I probably wouldn’t have been able to persevere.

Dad, last winter Aunt Jiang came over, and that’s when Jing Chu changed. At that time, I really wanted to give her a good scolding."

"You’re still young; it’s normal to have negative emotions. It’s good that you’ve worked through them."

"Yeah, Aunt Jiang must have been very angry back then."

"It’s better now. I see Jing Chu has become much more cheerful." Lv Beiguang was sincerely grateful to Jiang Xinyu. She was probably expecting a child when she came over, wasn’t she?

"Ever since we built the house, Jing Chu has been smiling more. Dad, fifty bucks for the land and timber came from Aunt Jiang, and the rest was from Uncle Yang."

"Alright, in a few days, I’ll settle things with Uncle Yang and pay him back."

"Dad, if there really is an opportunity to go home, let Jing Chu go. She’s so beautiful, I’m afraid she’ll suffer grievances." Lv Guodong had been thinking about this for a long time.

"Son, that’s not possible now. I’ve already tried using connections. Right now, going to the countryside is in vogue, and there’s no quota for returning yet." Lv Beiguang sighed after saying this.

"Fortunately, you have Aunt Jiang here, and you can ask Uncle Yang to keep an eye on Jing Chu."

"Yeah, even if it’s years from now, if there’s an opportunity, let Jing Chu go back."

"I’ll see what Aunt Jiang thinks."

"Aunt Jiang said if we want to leave here, we need to study hard. Although we can’t go to college now, she said we’ll definitely have the chance in the future."

"Yes, she’s right. Guodong, you have to wait a decade or so as a young man, so make sure you truly like your partner.

I live far away and might not have the chance to come over, so you have to get Aunt Jiang’s approval.

Guodong, do you understand what I mean?"

"Dad, I understand. If I truly like a girl, I’ll have Aunt Jiang meet her. If she disagrees, she’ll give me a reason."

"Right, that’s how it should be. I’m glad my son understands."

"Dad, since we’re not with you, you should find someone you like to spend your life with. One person is too lonely."

"I’ll stay single, waiting for you to come back home."

"Dad, you can’t do that. Even if we go to college, we won’t be returning home often, and you’ll be too lonely. You’re still young; you should consider giving us a younger sibling or two, so we won’t worry about you when we’re away."

"I’ve been through two marriages and have no such thoughts now."

Guodong decided not to continue with this topic and would discuss it with Aunt Jiang when he saw her the next day. She should be better at persuading Dad.

The topic was too heavy, so Guodong decided to talk about something happier.

"Dad, we spent New Year’s at Aunt Jiang’s place. The food there was really good."

Lv Beiguang laughed as well. Jiang Xinyu never shortchanged herself, even when she was young, let alone now.

"You can still go there in the winter. If there’s anything you don’t understand, ask Aunt Jiang, she definitely knows."

"Yeah, the three of us study together whenever we have time, and whatever we don’t know, we jot it down and wait for Aunt Jiang to explain."

"Good, that’s the way it should be. She’s a college graduate, teaching you is no problem. Don’t worry about the favors; your dad already owes Aunt Jiang and will find a way to return them in due time."

"Yeah, we’ll both keep it in our hearts."

"Guodong, what do you think of Old Yang as a person?"

"I just know he’s very capable. He can handle anything, and the village chief holds him in high regard."

"Great, in that case, I’m at ease with Sister Xiaoli marrying him."

"Dad, I still think they’re too different. Look at Aunt Jiang and Uncle Wei, who are also very different, you can tell just by looking."

"It’s fate between two people; everything else is secondary." Lv Beiguang wasn’t sure what else to say. That’s how it is, but this topic isn’t suitable to discuss with children.

"Guodong, if Sister Xiaoli ever needs help, you must be there for her."

"Don’t worry, Dad. I know. Even though Uncle Yang is very capable and has helped us a lot, if he ever wrongs Sister Xiaoli, I’ll stand by her side."

"You are her family brother and should stand up for her."

"I understand, and I believe such a thing won’t happen.

The one we should really worry about is Jing Chu. Youngsters in the village hover around her often, trying to please her."

"No matter what happens in the future, you can’t leave her side; don’t let her be alone.

If something happens, even if the government steps in later, it will be too late. You must not let Jing Chu be alone, do you understand?"

"Rest assured, Dad, I will remember."

Protecting his sister is something he cannot slack off on at all.

"Dad, in the winter, I’ll go to Aunt Jiang’s house. Uncle Wei and Master Shang know kung fu, and I’ll ask them to teach me."

"Jing Chu can learn as well, and Uncle Yang should know some kung fu too, so you can learn at home."

Guodong excitedly sat up. He would find a chance to ask Uncle Yang and get Jing Chu to learn with him. It would be good for self-defense and stalling for time until help arrives.

"Okay, I’ll talk to Jing Chu about it tomorrow. She might not like it, but for her safety, it’s necessary, and we have the chance, so she must learn."

"You know, Shi Jing and Feifei are really skilled. I feel like Master Shang was brought in by Aunt Jiang to be a teacher for her siblings. Master Shang is very knowledgeable, and I love listening to his lectures. I’ve learned a lot from him too."
