Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space-Chapter 835: Heart-to-Heart Conversation

"Dad, I’m feeling really down." Li Xue was very low-spirited.

Li Yunqiao knew, "Xue’er, I know you all can’t accept it for a while, that’s why I want you to take care of her in the future."

At this moment, the three boys also came over, the whole family gathered in the living room.

"Red Army, Hongling, come, Dad wants to talk to you."

The two boys looked at Dad, not knowing what to say, waiting for Dad to speak.

"Even though we divorced, she’s still your mom, even if she remarries, she’s still your mom."

"Dad, in the future, she’ll be someone else’s mom." Hongling said in a low mood.

"Hongling, she may be someone else’s mom, but she is still your mom.

You are still young and don’t understand how hard it is for a woman to live alone, so her remarrying makes sense, don’t overthink it, adult matters are not for you to get involved in.

She gave birth to you all, no matter what, she is still your mom, and you will have the duty to care for her in the future."

The three younger kids listened to Dad without showing much, but the couple was indeed unconvinced; to them, Mom had just divorced and quickly embraced another marriage, emotionally unacceptable.

"Today our whole family is here, let me talk to you.

In the future, I don’t plan to marry again, until you all have families, then I’ll find a partner."

Li Yunqiao reassured the kids, seeing the three youngest were feeling upset, gave them assurance.

Li Honglin and his wife exchanged a glance, knowing it’s tough for one person to live alone in the future.

"Dad, we hope you find someone who cares for you, this way we don’t worry, waiting later won’t be as deeply emotional."

"Yes, Dad, I agree with Honglin, we both have jobs, when we have kids, our focus will inevitably shift, our siblings are still young, I’ll do my best, but we may not be able to care for you.

So I hope you remarry, that way, when you’re unwell, there will be someone to look after you."

With the older siblings showing their support, Li Xue nodded too, "Dad, I agree you should remarry, I’ll get along well with her."

The Red Army was not young anymore, he heard what the older siblings said. He only understood that in the future, nobody would be around to care for Dad if he fell sick.

"Dad, I agree, but make sure to find someone good."

Only Hongling remained silent, lowering his head.

"It’s too early to discuss these things, I don’t have such thoughts now, I understand you all, let’s talk about this in the future."

Hongling felt relieved, he really didn’t want another stranger in the home.

Hong Lin wasn’t satisfied with the younger brother’s response, but remained silent, considering his young age and lack of understanding.

Next, they talked about their life back home.

Hongling learned the second brother could drive a tractor now and was very envious, "Red Army, is driving the tractor fun?"

"Big brother, in the beginning, it was fun, but after long hours, it’s exhausting, our strength is incomparable now.

You wouldn’t know, Brother Chaoyang works tirelessly, I could barely handle it initially, but gradually adapted."

Li Yunqiao sighed, "Chaoyang is truly a hardworking, good kid."

"Indeed, Brother Chaoyang is great. Every aunt from the village likes him."

The kids understood this, but Li Yunqiao and Li Honglin laughed, knowing everyone wanted Chaoyang as a son-in-law.

They asked about Li Xue’s situation, knowing the second brother’s wife and aunt truly cared for the three kids.

Red Army laughed, "Dad, if you find us a stepmother like that second aunt, we’d be lucky."

Li Yunqiao laughed, he had no such thoughts now, still having three kids unmarried, considering the uncertainties in people.

"Xue’er, you really don’t need to worry, with such good teachers, study hard. My mom is here to care for me."

"Sister-in-law, I’ll study at home and ask Teacher Jiang questions when you and big brother are off."

Arranging it this way was best, even if Li Yunqiao hadn’t divorced, taking care of the kids involved Li Xue.

Tomorrow the three kids had to leave, so they didn’t stay long.

The Red Army and Hongling shared a room.

"Second brother, do you think Dad will be upset because I didn’t agree?"

"Hongling, why didn’t you agree?"

"I just fear the stepmother won’t treat me well."

"But Dad would be lonely on his own, you know we can’t always live with him, should he really live alone? Or will you stay with him forever?"

"Second brother, I don’t know."

"Think about it, when you have your own family and kids, what about Dad?"

Hongling lay in bed, thinking about his siblings’ words, suddenly got up, holding his pillow to find Dad.

After washing up, Li Yunqiao was reading files when he heard a knock.

Seeing his youngest son with a pillow, he raised an eyebrow.

"What’s up? Want to sleep with Dad?"

"Yes, I want to sleep with Dad tonight."

Li Yunqiao put down the files, smiled, and held his youngest son’s hand, father and son lay on the bed.

"Dad, I’m not against finding us a stepmother, just afraid she won’t treat us well."

"Son, don’t worry, Dad doesn’t have such plans now. Only if it happens later, I’ll find someone good for you.

Besides, you are grown, won’t need to rely on a stepmother’s care by then."

"Yes, I want to live at home, Second Uncle and Second Brother said to study hard and behave, maybe like Brother Chaoyang, Master Wei will treat us well."

"Are you two envious of Chaoyang?"

"Yes, Master Wei took Brother Chaoyang and Brother Dongxiang out, heard they’re heading South, visiting many places, and taking the train, I wish to go too."

"Your Second Uncle is right, study well."
