After Rebirth, Mrs. He Dotes On Her Husband

Chapter 285 - 285 What is Love?

285 What is Love?

Chen Wei’er had a different opinion from the worker. She went to pull him and ask all sorts of questions.

“Have you ever encountered heavy rains or blizzards in the mountains?”

The worker nodded. “Yes, during summer. There was also hailstone.”

Chen Wei’er was stunned. She had never seen hail before. She inquired, “Won’t that hit anyone?”

“Not only did it hit people…but many of the villagers’ houses have also collapsed…” The worker recalled the scene at that time and still felt a lingering fear. He became more talkative.

“It’s prudent for us to wear safety hats. Some of the villagers suffered fractures when they were hit by the hailstones! Some of the shattered glass that fell on the ground ended up cutting people…”

“Were the hailstones extremely dangerous?” This was something that Chen Wei’er had never thought about. Although she had a hard life in her previous life, she also lived a few decades of luxury.

The worker continued, “The animals were all stoned to death. All the crops in the field were also destroyed. Everyone could only sit on the ground and wail. But what’s the use of crying?”

Chen Wei’er fell silent. Indeed, crying was useless!

But whenever Chen Wei’er was down, crying was the only way to vent. At the thought of this, He Xun’s face flashed across her mind. She shook her head and tried to get this image out of her mind, but it was in vain.

Chen Wei’er decided to change the topic to divert her attention.

“Are you married?”

Hearing this, the worker grinned widely and revealed his teeth.

“My elder daughter is already in junior high this year, and my younger son is only 3 years old this year. My two children are both smart. The elder one excels at her studies. She has worked hard for the family. The younger is an avid reader since young. I have reprimanded him too many times for touching his sister’s bag!”

When the worker talked about his children, he was full of pride, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to have smoothed out.

“Your children are indeed outstanding!” Chen Wei’er nodded.

At this moment, the worker grew completely relaxed. He couldn’t help but take out the mobile phone from his pocket and open the photo album to show Chen Wei’er his children.

Chen Wei’er saw that the phone he was holding was an old model from a few years ago. It was already a little jammed, and his hands were like dry and cracked poplar tree bark, in pieces. She suddenly felt her nose sour…

On the screen, there was a pair of siblings. The older one looked like a teenager while the younger one was just a little bit younger. They were obediently snuggling. Behind the children was a wall full of awards.

“Are these your eldest child’s awards?” Chen Wei’er asked.

“Yes! She has always ranked first since the first grade. Her teacher said that as long as we support her studies, she’ll definitely be able to get into a good university. She’s very hardworking and smart.” The worker’s tone was gratified.

“People like us don’t have the financial means to avail early education classes. I tried looking for a school for my second child when he was born. But it was too expensive. I couldn’t afford it… My daughter said that she would just teach her brother. Every day, after my daughter finished her homework, she would read poetry to her brother, teach him English, and tell him stories… Their relationship is very good. My son learned to call his elder sister first!”

“Your children are so sensible because you have taught them well!” Chen Wei’er looked at the child. The 3-year-old boy’s face was round, and his smile was especially cute.

“It’s my wife who taught them well! I’m working outside to earn money while she’s taking care of the two children at home. I’m deeply grateful to my wife!” At the mention of his wife, the worker’s face showed a blissful smile.

Chen Wei’er looked at his expression and knew that the relationship between the couple must be excellent.

There was some love, and one could tell how deep this love was just by looking at the eyes.

It was also because of the mention of his wife that the corners of the worker’s eyes were a little wet.

“My wife suffered after marrying me! I think, after I get my salary this time, I must buy a ring for my wife… I didn’t even buy her a ring when we got married…”

“I think what your wife wants isn’t necessarily a ring. It’s enough for the two of you to work hard toward the same goal,” Chen Wei’er consoled.

The worker shook his head with a bitter smile.

“You don’t understand. You are well-off. You have everything you want. You don’t lack material security. And President He is so protective of you. Other women will definitely be envious. I’m not as capable as President He. I can’t give my wife those things, but I have to do my best to make my wife not regret marrying me. In your opinion, it’s better to keep the money for a family like ours. You claim there’s no need to buy a ring, but I’ll only buy it once in my life to make her happy…”

Chen Wei’er became silent again.

“Everyone has their own troubles,” She spoke with a smile after a while. In fact, it might be possible that He Xun didn’t love her at all, and the outsiders couldn’t just notice it.
