Chapter 128 Every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite
Chapter 128 Every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite
Jin Peiyun sat on the sofa, her hands unconsciously clenching the hem of her clothes.
After a long silence, he spoke, his voice trembling slightly.
"Old Tan, have you thought about what this means for our family?"
"She's here. How should I handle this? And how should the children cope?"
Qin Qiufeng walked over, sat down beside her, and gently took her hand.
“Peiyun, I know this is sudden and difficult for you.”
“But Mu Niang’s mother has suffered too much over the years. During the war, I was separated from them.”
"She struggled alone in the countryside, raising Mu Niang."
"Now that we've finally got news about her, I can't just ignore it."
Jin Peiyun withdrew her hand, stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the snowflakes falling outside the window, her eyes reddening.
"Over the years, I've been by your side through thick and thin, taking care of this family wholeheartedly, and I've never complained."
"Now……"
Qin Qiufeng walked behind her, wanting to comfort her, but didn't know where to begin.
Just then, the phone rang abruptly, breaking the oppressive atmosphere in the room.
Qin Qiufeng hesitated for a moment, but still answered the phone.
A hurried voice came from the other end of the phone.
It was an urgent notice from the department, requiring him to attend an important meeting immediately.
Qin Qiufeng put down the phone and said helplessly to Jin Peiyun.
"Peiyun, there's an urgent matter at the ministry, I have to go."
"Let's put this matter aside for now, and discuss it properly when I get back, okay?"
Jin Peiyun did not turn around, but simply nodded slightly.
Qin Qiufeng hurriedly left home and got into the car heading to the Ministry of Forestry.
Along the way, his thoughts were in turmoil, on one hand his work, which was related to the country's ecological development.
On the other hand, the complicated emotional entanglements at home were giving him a headache.
Meanwhile, literacy classes were in full swing in Saihanba.
Feng Cheng stood in the makeshift classroom, holding a forestry technology manual.
He carefully explained the latest tree planting knowledge to the team members.
The team members sat together, their eyes filled with a thirst for knowledge.
He would ask questions from time to time, and Feng Cheng would patiently answer them one by one.
Summer listened quietly outside the classroom, watching the team members study diligently, and felt very gratified.
On the other side, in Beiping City.
After attending the meeting, Qin Qiufeng hurriedly headed home.
Qin Qiufeng had a terrible headache.
Putting aside work-related matters, let's just talk about family matters.
It made his head feel like it was about to explode.
On one side were his wife and daughter.
On the other side was his wife, who had been by his side for over a decade.
Although every family has its own problems.
But at this moment, Qin Qiufeng felt that no scripture was more difficult to recite than the one in his family.
The secretary standing next to Qin Qiufeng looked at the minister with a worried expression.
I wanted to say something, but in the end I didn't speak.
Secretary Li accompanied Minister Qin throughout his inspection tour.
Of course I know what happened.
But it's not something he can easily say.
Therefore, we can only remain silent about it.
If your boss asks, you have to pretend you don't know.
The driver was consciously slowing down the car.
But Qin Qiufeng's home in the Forestry Bureau was only a short distance away.
Even if the driver goes very slowly, you will still get home eventually.
Soon, the car came to a smooth stop in front of Minister Qin's house.
Qin Qiufeng felt the car stop and snapped out of his daze.
He took a deep breath, looked at the car door opened by his secretary, and got out of the car.
What must be faced will eventually have to be faced.
Running away is useless.
With heavy steps, Qin Qiufeng entered his home.
Jin Peiyun remained standing by the window, looking out.
"Peiyun, I'm back!"
Jin Peiyun turned around when she heard Qin Qiufeng's voice.
Her eyes were red and swollen, clearly she had just been crying.
"Peiyun, why are you crying?"
Qin Qiufeng took two steps forward and looked at Jin Peiyun.
Jin Peiyun looked at Qin Qiufeng, her eyes filled with exhaustion.
"Old Qin, I really don't know how to face her."
Qin Qiufeng took her hand.
“Peiyun, I promise you, I will handle this matter well.”
"I will have a good talk with her and make her understand our current situation."
“I believe that Mu Niang’s mother will definitely understand.”
“I also hope you can give her a chance, so that we can all sit down and calmly resolve the issue.”
Jin Peiyun remained silent for a while, then finally nodded.
"Okay, Lao Tan, I'll listen to you."
"But you must handle this well and not let this family fall apart."
Qin Qiufeng looked at Jin Peiyun, who was so close to him, and hugged her tightly.
Then he made a promise to Jin Peiyun.
"Don't worry, Peiyun, I won't let this family fall apart."
Qin Qiufeng held Jin Peiyun tightly, making a silent vow in his heart.
We must handle this thorny issue properly; we must not let his family fall apart.
But Qin Qiufeng knew in his heart that achieving this goal would be easier said than done.
Guangxi Province.
Qin Xuemei's home.
Looking at her hardworking and busy mother, Qin Xuemei felt very conflicted.
She didn't know whether she should tell her mother that she had met Qin Qiufeng.
If she didn't tell, she felt she should let her mother know about her father.
But when I try to talk about it, I don't know where to begin.
She already knew that her father had remarried.
I also know the situation at the time.
She could understand why her father would do such a thing.
But she was afraid her mother wouldn't understand.
Just as Qin Xuemei was in a state of great distress, Lan Yaqin, Qin Xuemei's mother, spoke up.
"Xuemei, just tell me what's on your mind!"
"Ana, there are some things I don't know how to tell you!"
"Xuemei, just tell me what's on your mind!"
Lan Yaqin stopped what she was doing and looked at Qin Xuemei with gentle eyes.
His face bore the marks of time, but his eyes were full of concern for his daughter.
"Ana, there are some things I don't know how to tell you!"
Qin Xuemei hesitated for a long time, her hands unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes, her voice trembling slightly.
She took a deep breath and mustered her courage to speak.
“Ana, I’ve seen my father.”
Lan Yaqin's hand suddenly paused, and the rag slipped silently from her grasp.
She stared wide-eyed at Qin Xuemei in disbelief.
His lips trembled slightly, and it took him a long time to squeeze out a sentence.
"Xuemei, what did you say?"
"You saw Qiufeng? Where...where is he?"
Qin Xuemei stepped forward, helped her mother sit down in a chair, and spoke slowly.
“My father is in Beiping. He is now the Vice Minister of Forestry.”
Lan Yaqin swayed slightly, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.
There was shock, surprise, and a touch of indescribable bitterness.
"So many years have passed, is he... is he doing well?"
she asked softly.
Qin Xuemei bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell her mother the truth.
……
A melodramatic family drama.
Happy New Year everyone! That concludes today's update. Get some rest!
