Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space-Chapter 862: On the Train

Wei Kaiyun and his group were discussing family matters on the train.

"My wife must not be at your place right now. I have no idea what she’s thinking."

"She’s not used to it. She doesn’t really know Xinyu well. When the Lv Family siblings went over, she followed too."

"That’s exactly what she said to me."

"Actually, someone is taking care of her, so there’s nothing to worry about."

"Oh, you don’t know... my wife still has a childish mindset. Maybe she was too well-protected before, can’t handle real-world situations."

Old Yang didn’t want to complain about his wife, but she’s really immature. Even after that incident with Jing Chu, she probably still doesn’t think she was wrong.

He wanted to talk to her but didn’t know where to start. He can only hope she spends time with Jiang Xinyu and learns something.

He doesn’t need her help, he can provide for her, but she shouldn’t block all his opportunities. Probably doesn’t even have friends? It’s frustrating. She knew Jing Chu was wrong but still stood behind her firmly at the time. She could have talked it over later.

Right now, the room had just the two of them; Shang Zhenkun and Chaoyang Dongxiang took the three children out for a stroll. They were either sitting or lying down, worried the kids might be uncomfortable.

"Isn’t that exactly what you like?"

"Yes, I don’t want my wife to be too strong, just want her to be gentle."

"Doesn’t that fit perfectly with your wish?"

"It does, but when the children grow up a bit, I’ll let you guys raise them."

"We have no problem with that, the issue is your wife; I doubt she’d agree."

"We’ll talk about it then. If it’s a girl, let her raise her; if it’s a boy, I’m afraid she’ll spoil him. Shi Jing was taught really well."

"He can be disobedient at times, but overall he’s fine."

"I don’t expect the child to be outstanding, just hope he doesn’t follow his mom’s way. Boys should act like boys.

Honestly, I was picked up; never thought about settling down. Now that I have a wife and kids, I’m content."

"I feel the same. If not for Xinyu, I probably wouldn’t have settled down, afraid of failing my wife and kids.

But I love Xinyu, can’t care about anything else."

"Xiao Jiang treats you really well."

"Yeah, when my daughter finds a partner, if he’s not like me, I wouldn’t agree." Wei Kaiyun said angrily.

Old Yang laughed heartily, "Speaking like that, imagine what Xiao Jiang would think if she heard it?"

"Anyway, my daughter’s marriage absolutely can’t be hurried."

"Isn’t that what Old Han thinks too?"

"Hmph, my daughter wouldn’t fancy his son.

If it wasn’t for Jianbin being a good kid, I’d have sent her to you long ago.

That guy has been eyeing such a plan for a while."

"Haha, I can see it. You’ll be the stumbling block in Feifei’s marriage in the future."

"How could I?"

"Do you think no one is worthy of your daughter?"

"Exactly."

Old Yang laughed and shook his head. Now, brothers were all flustered, wondering which unlucky guy would be his son-in-law one day.

That’s when Shang Zhenkun and the others returned. Shi Jing ran to Old Yang’s side, "Uncle Yang, why are you laughing? They heard your laughter outside."

"Hahaha, Shi Jing, Uncle Yang is laughing at the future unlucky guy."

"Who is that?"

"Haha, just wondering who will be the unlucky guy in the future."

Wei Kaiyun hugged Feifei, "When we reach the next stop, I’ll take you out for a walk."

"Dad, but there’s nothing at the stop." Jiang Feifei spread her hands, there’s really nothing, if not for collecting many precious paintings and books, she’d have regretted coming out.

"Dad, I want to eat bread." Shi Jing leaned toward Dad and sister.

"Uncle Wei, I want to eat too."

"There’s none for sale. If you want to eat, you’ll have to endure it."

The two boys sighed. Actually, wanting bread was secondary; they mostly missed their mom.

"Feifei, do you miss your mom too?" Wei Kaiyun asked softly.

Jiang Feifei nodded, "I’ve missed mom for a long time. I wonder how my younger siblings are doing? Plus, with us gone, will mom feel lonely?"

Wei Kaiyun felt an increasing longing for his wife after his daughter’s words.

But no matter what, he must meet the leader. Otherwise, all efforts would be in vain.

Shang Zhenkun noticed the mood was somber, quickly gathered the three kids to listen to the radio.

"The next chemical plant will take two more days to reach, right?"

Old Yang nodded. "Two more days."

Wei Kaiyun sighed, hearing the kids’ words, he wished he could see his wife immediately.

That night, eleven people had dinner. The kids ate merrily, and the afternoon’s melancholy was gone, though it left Wei Kaiyun feeling down.

After eating, Jianbin approached Wei Kaiyun, "Uncle Wei, when will my dad come to our house? Will we run into him?"

Old Yang smiled and patted Jianbin on the head, "Your dad called, he’s taking the train on the twentieth of the lunar month, we’ll be home then."

Jianbin was happy now. It’s been a year since he parted from his dad, how could he not miss him? They used to be together all the time. Although he had siblings, Master Shang, Uncle Wei, and Aunt Jiang by his side, he still missed his dad.

Shi Jing ran over, "Brother Jianbin, do you miss Dad?"

"Yeah, I want to write to Dad. Let’s discuss what else we want Dad to bring back besides the children’s books we’ve asked for."

Now the three kids were energized, quickly went back to write the letter.

This shift in focus was quite beneficial.

"Chaoyang, you going to sleep?"

"Master Wei, I’m not going, I’m not tired. You go and rest."

Chaoyang knew the girl across had thoughts about Master Wei, so he decided not to let Master Wei go.

He’s not stupid, not falling into traps, not divulging secrets.

He sat with Xiang Dong, "Chaoyang, we’ll stick with Master Wei until the last stop, right?"

"Seems like it. Master Wei said we need to order rubber gloves, probably at the last stop!"

"Traveling all this way, we’ve seen so much. The outside is different, but I still feel home is better."

Chaoyang nodded as well, "I feel the same.

Go back and tell the Red Army, he won’t believe it."

Xiang Dong laughed, "Exactly. The Red Army is eager to go out; he probably thinks we’re lying."

"Chaoyang, is Big Brother coming back this year?"

"Yes, he’s already written back saying he is, and bringing his future wife."

"Is that so?"

"Yes, my mom told me. She’s really worried about Brother’s marriage now."
