Siheyuan: The wife was intercepted after returning from the battlefield

He Yushui felt extremely upset at this moment. She had secretly liked Brother Pingzi for so many years. She had just decided to wait for him to come back and express her feelings, but she didn't expect reality to give her a heavy blow. Brother Pingzi didn't even come home to see her. Thinking of this, her heart felt as painful as if it was stabbed by a knife, and her tears flowed out desperately.

But she didn't know why Lin Ping couldn't feel her feelings in these years, so after thinking about it, she decided not to meet her. She was afraid that she liked him out of gratitude over the years and wanted to let her calm down for a while. If time could dilute everything, it would mean that He Yushui didn't love him that much and would have her own new life. If He Yushui still insisted on liking him, he would never let her down. As for whether He Yushui could awaken, it was not that important.

Qin Yanru was heartbroken when she saw He Yushui crying silently. She wiped her tears and said, "Don't be sad, Yushui. Maybe Brother Pingzi is really in trouble."

Hearing this, He Yushui's scattered eyes focused again, and she said firmly: "Yes, I can't just give up like this, I must meet him and ask him face to face. If he really doesn't have me in his heart, then I will guard the pure land in my heart and live alone."

Seeing He Yushui so determined, Qin Yanru sighed in her heart and said, "Sister-in-law, I believe Brother Pingzi will not be so ruthless. Wait until he comes back next time and have a good talk with him."

Seeing Wang Xiuzhi coming back with a worried look on her face, Lin Shanhai couldn't help but ask, "Xiuzhi, what's wrong with you? Why are you worried after coming back from a trip?"

Wang Xiuzhi sighed and said, "It's all because of that damn kid Pingzi."

Lin Shanhai wondered, "What happened to Pingzi?"

Wang Xiuzhi looked at Lin Shanhai and said unhappily, "Can't you see that Yushui has always liked Pingzi? She didn't dare to express her feelings before when Pingzi got married. Didn't you see that every time I asked her to introduce someone to someone, she refused? That girl has long been deeply in love with our Pingzi."

Lin Shanhai was surprised when he heard this: "You said that Yushui likes Pingzi? Are you kidding?"

He Yushui grew up almost entirely in the Lin family. Lin Shanhai and Wang Xiuzhi both treated her as their own daughter, so when Lin Shanhai heard that He Yushui liked Lin Ping, he was shocked.

Wang Xiuzhi rolled her eyes when she heard that and said, "You men are so careless that you can't understand a little girl's mind. Yushui has been deeply in love with our Pingzi for a long time. This time Pingzi got into trouble. It might be that Yushui saw something and waited for Pingzi to come back and confess his love. Who knew that Pingzi went back without seeing her? Now the child doesn't know how sad she is."

Lin Shanhai opened his mouth for a long time without knowing what to say. Lin Ping was his son, but he also treated He Yushui as his daughter. Now that he knew He Yushui liked Lin Ping, he felt very confused. He was silent for a long time before he said, "Then what do you think we should do?"

Wang Xiuzhi sighed, "Pingzi didn't go to see Yushui because he probably realized that Yushui liked him and wanted time to make everything go away. But Yushui grew up under our watch and I can't bear to see her sad. If not, we can help her."

Lin Shanhai sighed and said, "It was all caused by Pingzi, the brat, and we have to clean up his mess. I also like Yushui, and Pingzi has so many women, so he doesn't mind having one more Yushui. The question is, will Shazhu agree?"

Wang Xiuzhi said angrily, "What does it have to do with Shazhu? If Pingzi agrees, Yushui will go into the mountains with Pingzi. What can Shazhu do then?"

Lin Shanhai nodded and said, "That's right. Next time Pingzi comes back, call Yushui over as well. As for the final outcome, it depends on the two kids themselves."

In the blink of an eye, it was spring again. In March of 1968, the situation became even more serious.

Last year, Lin Ping's family did not come back for the New Year. He Yushui waited for a year but to no avail, and felt very upset. He was so worried over the past year that he lost some weight. Wang Xiuzhi felt so distressed that she decided to contact Lin Ping herself.

It was because Lin Ping was afraid that something might happen at home, so he left a means of communication with his family before leaving last time. Wang Xiuzhi picked up a crystal and crushed it directly.

Yanshan Valley.

Little Nuonuo, who was already five years old, was lying in front of the crib, teasing the baby inside. Lin Qingyan was watching the two sisters interacting. Suddenly, a crystal stone left in the hall flashed red. Lin Qingyan's face changed immediately. It seemed that the Lin family had something urgent to discuss with them, so she hurriedly told Nuonuo a few words, then disappeared into the valley with a few leaps.

Siheyuan.

Because it was broad daylight and Lin Qingyan's practice was not yet advanced enough to fly, she arrived at Sijiu City and began to walk to the courtyard.

In the front yard, Third Aunt was washing clothes at the door. She saw Lin Qingyan hurriedly walk into the yard. Before she could ask, Lin Qingyan had already entered the middle yard.

West across the courtyard.

Wang Xiuzhi felt weak when she saw Lin Qingyan coming back. She had originally wanted her son to come back so she could talk to him about the rain, but she didn't expect that it was Lin Qingyan who came back. How could an old woman like her open her mouth? Could it be that she was asking her daughter-in-law to find a sister for her? So she said awkwardly, "Qingyan, why is it you? Pingzi didn't come back?"

Lin Qingyan was worried that something had happened at home, so she hurried back to Sijiu City. However, Wang Xiuzhi didn't look like she had any problems at home, so she asked, "Mom, is everything okay at home?"

Wang Xiuzhi smiled and said, "Everything is fine at home. You haven't told me why Pingzi didn't come back yet?"

Lin Qingyan knew that everything was fine at home, so she smiled and said, "Brother Pingzi didn't leave the confinement, I rushed here as soon as I received the news. Since nothing happened at home, what do you want to talk to us about, mom?"

Wang Xiuzhi didn't know how to answer Lin Qingyan after hearing this. She couldn't just say, "I'll ask your husband to come back and find a sister for you."

Seeing Wang Xiuzhi hesitated to speak, Lin Qingyan smiled and said, "Mom, is there anything you can't tell me?"

Wang Xiuzhi pondered for a long time before she sighed and told the story of He Yushui again, saying, "Qingyan, Mom knows this is not my business, but after all, I treat Yushui as my daughter. I can't bear to see her getting thinner and thinner, so I want to call Pingzi back so that they can talk. Qingyan, you won't blame Mom, right?"

Lin Qingyan smiled and said, "Mom, what are you talking about? We all saw how you treated Yu Shui. Besides, we already knew what Yu Shui was thinking. We didn't meet her last year for her own good. If she can come to her senses, it will be a good thing for everyone. After all, we don't know if she has the possibility of awakening."

Wang Xiuzhi thought about it and felt that what Lin Qingyan said made sense. If Yu Shui could also awaken, then her life span would be at most a few hundred years, and she and Lin Ping and the others would not be able to stay together forever. So she nodded and said, "You are right. I was a little too simple-minded."

Lin Qingyan smiled and said, "Mom, since Yu Shui insists on her own mind, I will talk to her. If she thinks it through, I will take her back today."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiuzhi immediately said to Lin Shanhai, "Why are you still standing there? Go to the steel mill and call back Yu Shui."

Lin Shanhai nodded and hurried out of the yard.

Steel rolling mill.

When He Yushui arrived at the door and saw that it was Lin Shanhai, she couldn't help but ask in anticipation, "Uncle Lin, why are you here? Could it be that Brother Pingzi is back?"

Lin Shanhai looked at the thin He Yushui and sighed, "Come back with me first, and then you will know everything."

He Yushui was instantly overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Uncle Lin, please wait here for a while, I'll take a leave and be back soon." After that, he hurried into the steel rolling mill.

Not long after, he ran back and returned to the courtyard with Lin Shanhai.

West across the courtyard.

When Lin Qingyan saw He Yushui, she realized that it was because she was too worried that her body became thinner day by day. She sighed and said, "Yushui, come into the house and talk with me."

He Yushui, in an excited mood, came to the courtyard and saw Lin Qingyan. Before she spoke, she heard Lin Qingyan calling her to come in and talk. She couldn't help but look at Wang Xiuzhi with a nervous face.

Wang Xiuzhi comforted him, "Go ahead. Isn't this what you were looking forward to?"

When He Yushui heard this, he knew that Lin Qingyan already knew everything, so he gritted his teeth and followed her into the house.

Lin Qingyan sat on the kang and looked at the somewhat reserved He Yushui and said with a smile: "Why are you so reserved? This is not like you normally."

He Yushui heard this and thought to herself, how can this be the same? Normally I am your sister-in-law, but now I want to be your sister, so she said nervously: "Sister Qingyan, I..."

Lin Qingyan interrupted He Yushui and said, "Yushui, Qingya, Brother Pingzi and I all know what you are thinking. The last time I didn't see you was also to let you see your own heart clearly. Since you still insist, I will tell you the real situation of our family."

He Yushui was interrupted by Lin Qingyan, and his heart was chilled. Could it be that Sister Qingyan didn't want me to join? But there was no time to think about it at this time, so he hurriedly said: "Sister Qingyan, you say it and I'm listening."

Lin Qingyan looked at He Yushui and said, "Yushui, we are not ordinary people. If you join us, you have to live in seclusion in the mountains with us. Are you willing to do this?"

He Yushui nodded immediately after hearing this and said, "Sister Qingyan, I am willing. Not only can we live in seclusion in the mountains, but I am also willing to die together."

Lin Qingyan chuckled when she heard this and said, "Die? We can't die, even if the earth is destroyed we can't die."

He Yushui was puzzled when she heard this: "Sister Qingyan, what do you mean?"

Lin Qingyan smiled and said, "Because we are gods, let's put it this way. If we are not killed by external forces, our lifespan is infinite. That is to say, if you don't have the aptitude to practice, even with us around, you can only live a few hundred years longer at most. Is the separation of life and death the life you want?"

He Yushui felt relaxed upon hearing that, and said firmly: "Sister Qingyan, as long as I can accompany Brother Pingzi, I will be satisfied. If you hadn't lived in seclusion in the mountains, I would rather live with you silently. If I can't practice, it means that this is my fate. When I grow old, I will leave quietly." After saying that, a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes.

Seeing this, Lin Qingyan sighed and stroked He Yushui's hair and said, "Since you understand your own heart, then go and resign. I will take you away today, but how will you explain to your family? Are you afraid that Shazhu will not agree?"

He Yushui shook his head and said, "I am in charge of my own life. I will resign now, come back and say goodbye to my sister-in-law, and then we will leave."
