Upon reaching the Wen Family, the entire family welcomed them in the yard.
After he married to He YuanDong, this is the first time WenYa back. The He Family also prepared a generous gift for his family. Wen Family naturally attaches great importance to it. Except for WenYa's big brother, WenXin in the hospital, the rest were all there.
Formerly, Second sister WenShan carried out tasks abroad. When WenYa got married, she didn't have time to attend. As soon as that task was over, she rushed back and arrived home yesterday.
Third brother WenDa served in the embassy in North Africa. This time he happened to be a vacation. So, he became the best man at WenYa's wedding.
He YuanDong helped WenYa get off and kept holding him as they politely greeted the elders.
When everyone looked at WenYa, they saw him looked tired, and his face also look bad where his eyes and mouth were red and swollen, and look awkward when he walked. The elders came to know what was going on at a glance.
It seems that He YuanDong didn't hold anything against WenYa.
However, the elders didn't know whether this is good or bad things.
None of them thought that He YuanDong would have... accept WenYa so quickly.
He YuanDong is always resourceful in front of his family. As long as he wanted, he could please anyone.
His gifts for the Wen Family were all in their favor, for Grandpa Wen was an ancient chessboard. As for Father Wen was a lost painting. Mother Wen received a jade ornament. Big brother, second sister and third brother were got valuable but not tacky things too. Even big brother's lover Chu Wan Qiu also has a share.
Hearing Chu WanQiu's name, WenYa couldn't help startled and looked at He YuanDong.
He YuanDong's face was calm without slightest waves.
WenYa couldn't understand this man.
Sometimes he felt that this man was hateful, but sometimes this man was pathetic. After all, this kind of emotion is not something that can be sought with his family status and looks.
From an outsider's point of view, He YuanDong lived more than wanton arrogant, but WenYa always feels that he is wearing a layer of shackles.
Living in a different mask, he is probably tired of it.
Wen Family received the gifts and asked whether WenYa troubled him. He YuanDong only smiled and said WenYa is fine. Still holding WenYa hand and kissed it with a loving look on WenYa. WenYa didn't know what he was doing, as he gently leaned back in his arms.
Seeing them get along so well, the elders are very satisfied. Even WenYa's grandfather was feeling relieved.
Grandpa then inquired about He Grandpa. Knowing that He Grandpa already hospitalized, he lamented, "This bull's temper."
He YuanDong smiled: "The doctor said he could have the operation in a week."
The old man nodded and said to Wen Ya: "YuanDong is very busy, you should go to the hospital to accompany Grandpa."
WenYa was upset and felt uneasy in his heart. He was going to work tomorrow, and there's not much time to stay with He Grandpa.
He YuanDong silently holds his hand.
His warm temperature makes WenYa shiver slightly, but the heat from the palm makes him inexplicably calm down.
Later, Grandpa Wen called He YuanDong to go to the library and talk about something. Meanwhile, WenYa stayed in the living room.
His elder sister took the opportunity to pull his hand and asked: "Is He YuanDong good to you?"
WenYa said: "Good."
The second sister stared at him for a moment with little conviction. Suddenly, she said: "If I were at home at the beginning, I would oppose you marrying. My younger brother is very obedient. Why should it be that pervert fucker?"
His parents looked at each other helplessly.
Their daughter is good at everything. She is beautiful, her wrists are fierce, and her posture is soft when necessary. However, one thing is that her speech is too straight, and sometimes there are a few foul words.
Imagine such a sweet and tender girl's home, is scolding and swearing. The scene surely collapsed.
Their parents had many friends who wanted WenShan to marry and be their daughter-in-law in the past. But when their sons heard WenShan name, they were all frightened and went to hide.
The second sister touched WenYa's hair and said, "Tell me, did He YuanDong abuse you?"
Father Wen coughed with some disapproval.
The rumor of He YuanDong is not very good, and this is the reason why they worry about WenYa's marrying in the past. But for their daughter directly asked about it, their face doesn't look good.
Mother Wen directly skipped her daughter and asked WenYa: "XiaoYa, tell us the truth... in the end is it good?"
WenYa still answered: "Good."
Seeing that he answered briefly, and seemed didn't intend to say more. Father Wen and Mother Wen were quite skeptical.
At home, from four children, only the youngest sons are not growing up with them.
They used to work hard until they found out that they neglected their youngest sons. When they wanted to care, the youngest son had already grown up. His character became quiet and introverted with a little expression.
They also know that because they missed their son's growth. Thus their son no longer trusts and need them.
So they always felt sorry for WenYa, and now they pushed WenYa to He YuanDong side. They feel more guilty about it.
However, WenYa never complained or talked. Even if they have so many doubts, they cannot ask that.
At this time, the third brother WenDa smiled and said, "What are you worried. I think He YuanDong is good for youngest brother. He YuanDong is very good. I had a mission with him. He was amazing and saved many lives. Thus many of our colleagues admire him too."
The second sister quietly stretched out her elbow, and stabbed his chest: "Shut up."
The third brother felt wronged and stared blankly.
WenYa couldn't help but smile.
His third brother is a careless person. For so many years, the third brother thought he was only studying abroad. He didn't know what he had gone through and what had happened to him.
The truth, except for his big brother, other family members are quite cautious when they talk with him. Instead, they get along with the third brother as they would feel more relaxed with him.
The living room was quiet for a while until Grandpa Wen and He YuanDong appeared.
He YuanDong could naturally see that the atmosphere in the room was wrong. When his eyes fell on WenYa, WenYa sat there quietly with eyes downcast, very well-behaved and obedient.
But also... some solitary flavors.
They had lunch and went to the hospital to visit He Grandpa in the afternoon.
