The two siblings never ate here, so they just stayed for a while and then went home.
"Yixin. Shall we go back and ask dad?"
"Sister, since grandpa and dad don't want us to know, you'd better pretend you don't know and stop asking."
"I hope dad can find another one, so that you won't have to bear the burden of the Zeng family alone."
"Sister, even if my father remarries, he will really have a child. How many years will it take to wait?"
Zeng Hongling nodded. Yes, there is a huge difference.
"Yixin, would you like to have a baby for grandpa and dad to take care of? That way you can do what you like."
Zeng Yixin stopped and looked at Zeng Hongling seriously. "Sister, I have never particularly liked anything, and I have never regarded the Zeng family as a burden. I am willing to stay at home.
Although it looks good outside, it is not my choice after all. I regard myself as a Zeng family member and I am proud of it, and I have never considered it a constraint."
Zeng Hongling's face turned pale when her brother said this. That's what she thought. She thought that the Zeng family was her shackles, and she wanted to be free. She wanted to get rid of the shackles of the Zeng family.
"It's also new."
"Sister, think about it carefully. You and I are really different. I don't care what happens to you. It depends on what grandpa and dad want, and I won't force you to do anything.
So you don’t have to use your outlook on life to measure mine.”
Zeng Hongling nodded palely. She had never thought that her brother would think of her like this.
When the two returned home, everyone could see the difference in her.
Su Yuanyuan just patted her hand. Now they are at home. What's going on? There are also her family members.
After the meal, the family gathered together, and the room was very silent.
Finally it was Eric Tsang who broke the silence.
"Hong Ling, Yi Xin. I have no plans to start a family again, and I have no such thoughts at all."
He thought the two children had gone to their uncle's house and heard about it.
Yixin coughed and said, "Dad, it's not because of this. My uncle and the others talked about it today, but they said they had never objected. They meant to let us advise you."
After listening to his son's words, Zeng Zhixuan looked at his daughter, "Hongling, I will never get married again."
"Dad, I don't object to you starting a family, but I hope you can start a family so that someone will take care of you and you won't be lonely.
I am like this because I see myself clearly."
At this time, the two old people of the Zeng family were stunned. What did this mean? They saw it clearly.
Zeng Yixin just sat aside and said nothing. After he finished speaking, he also regretted it. But my sister was really like this. Grandpa was right. For a family to prosper, it definitely cannot be done by one or two people. But my sister is like her.
He was bound by the Zeng family, which he couldn't stand.
That's why he said what he said today. He wanted his sister to wake up and take the responsibility himself. However, she must also keep the family in mind instead of always thinking about getting rid of it.
Zeng Hongling moved unnaturally. "Grandpa, Dad, am I particularly selfish? Have I made things difficult for you?"
You have raised me so much. Now that I am an adult, do you really want to leave?"
Both of them stopped talking. They really wanted their children at home and wanted them to protect the Zeng family. One day, the Zeng family would rise again.
Zeng Yaozu felt guilty, so he let the children make their own decisions. Even though Hongling wanted to leave so much, he didn't force it.
Zeng Hongling looked at her grandfather and father. They didn't speak, that's what they meant.
"I'm very confused now. I want to go back to the room and think about it. Grandpa, Dad, I'm leaving."
Looking at his daughter who had fled, Zeng Zhixuan looked at his son.
"Dad, it's my fault. On the way back, my sister asked me to give birth to a child for you to keep, and let me go out and live the life I want. I couldn't hold it back for a moment, so I told her that I was different from her."
Both of them sighed. As the children got older, there were more problems.
"Yixin, don't have too many ideas. Although your father and I hope that the Zeng family can be glorious again, it's still up to you. If you don't like this kind of life, we won't force you.
We two old bones are here to guard it."
"Grandpa, I won't leave this time. Although it's nice outside, I know that I am a Zeng family member, and I will not be selfish or naive.
As a member of the Zeng family, I will do what I should do for the Zeng family."
"Yixin, what we said again is that if you go out and take a look, the sins and abuses on your body will disappear. Only then will the Zeng family have hope."
Zeng Yaozu once thought that the reason why the Zeng family ended up in this situation step by step was because the things they did in the past were against the harmony of nature.
"Yixin, your grandfather and we are both in good health now. You don't have to worry. You can go out for a walk and we will wait for you to come back at home.
You once said it would take five years. Then come back in five years."
"Grandpa, daddy."
Both of them patted his shoulders kindly.
Zeng Hongling staggered back to the room and lay directly on the bed. She opened her eyes and looked at the roof.
Her brother's words today made her doubt herself. The education they received from childhood was the same Confucian and Mencius education. Grandpa never treated them differently, and never thought of exchanging girls for anything.
But why would I think so? How could I be considered to be bound?
When you were a child, you played with children and saw how they lived. What was your life like at that time?
When girls grow up, they get married, and their families will ask for a lot of dowry. The worst thing to do is to use their daughters in exchange for it.
But he didn't. Even the Wang family put pressure on his grandfather. Grandpa didn't compromise.
Why are you still feeling sorry for yourself? What are you still complaining about?
I was really wrong, Yi Xin was right, I was just too selfish.
A smile that was even uglier than crying appeared on her face. She didn't live just for herself. She also had responsibilities, including the responsibility for providing for her grandfather and father, and the responsibility for the construction of the Zeng family.
After figuring it out, Zeng Hongling felt even more relaxed. Yes, there are many causes and effects when people live in this world, and they cannot just follow their own wishes.
Everyone has his or her own responsibilities, and I will no longer evade them in the future.
I have the right to pursue my dreams, but that also has a basis. In the future, I must not let my brother shoulder all the responsibilities. I am the sister and the one who should contribute to the Zeng family.
In fact, there is no conflict with this dream of mine. It is because I got into trouble.
