Chapter 690: Chapter 690: Sharing a Pillow after Divorce 12_1

"Dad, I know what worries you. You’re concerned about who will take care of second brother when he gets old, aren’t you? Dad, he still has me and big brother. Even if Dongxue gets married in the future and can’t come back often, there’s still me and big brother in this family. When that day comes, we promise, if second brother truly is alone, then wherever I and big brother go, we will definitely bring him with us. We’ll teach our children to respect him as they do their own parents."

"Dad, didn’t you say that no one from the He Family is heartless? So, what are you worrying about? And besides, even if our family is going through a tough time now, and people in the village are laughing at us, just wait three or four more years. After I graduate, after Dongxue graduates, and we all start working, the living conditions of the He Family will undoubtedly improve. Who knows, maybe a lot of good girls will want to join our family! Plus, second brother is such a good person. Maybe, just maybe, there’s a girl out there who can look past his shortcomings and truly love him."

"If there really was such a good day... I would worry about nothing. All these years, Ada has suffered enough. I don’t want his suffering to increase after I’m gone. With these words from you, his future sister-in-law, I feel relieved." He Zhongguo felt that he might have been overthinking. Unlike other families, where a sister-in-law comes from outside and might resent having to support her brother-in-law who doesn’t work, He Zhilan grew up with Ada. They are close like siblings, so with He Zhilan around, he doesn’t have to worry too much.

"Of course, Dad. After Dongxue and I graduate, you won’t need to spend much money. At that time, we can earn money to get second brother’s leg treated. Dongxue, isn’t that right?" He Zhilan asked, pulling He Dongxue into the conversation.

"Don’t worry, Dad," He Dongxue nodded vigorously. She genuinely cared for her second brother and didn’t want him to settle for a mediocre life, or to be laughed at as he walked through the village.

Right at that moment, He Zhilan’s desire to make money was stronger than ever. Only with money could they stop people from laughing at them and talking behind their backs in the village.

With money, He Zhilan could take Ada out of the village, to the best hospitals, so he could receive the best treatments from the best doctors. He could get the best prosthetic limb, and live the most comfortable life.

Before going back to her room, because she was concerned about Ada, He Zhilan specifically went to his room. After she got his permission, she opened the door and called out, "Second Brother."

"What brings you to my room so late?" Ada was idly lying on his bed, seeing Zhilan come in he smiled and greeted her.

"In these few days since you guys came back, you’ve put on a bit of weight, especially noticeable in your face." He Zhilan said as she sat down next to him, chuckling.

"Well, you guys are keeping all the good food for me, how could I not gained some weight?" Ada touched his face embarrassedly. However, when he mentioned his father, he couldn’t help but sigh, "Could you talk to our father for me? I don’t want to get married, and I don’t want to marry the kinds of women that he thinks I should. Look at me now. Even if I married them, they would only share my hardships and suffer with me. They would just be wasted on me. Not to mention, it would only add more burden to our family."
