Chapter 464 Thank you - Brother
At this moment, the sound of water suddenly stopped coming from the kitchen, followed by the hurried footsteps of the Queen Mother. She almost trotted out from behind the kitchen door, holding a half-wet rag in her hand, with water droplets still hanging between her fingers. She was obviously attracted by the movement outside.
Her face was full of worry and anxiety, her brows were furrowed, and her eyes were full of questions: "What's wrong? Yu Shui, what happened?"
Seeing the Queen Mother like this, He Yuzhu couldn't help but feel happy for his sister, He Yushui, but at the same time he also felt a little embarrassed.
He stood up and tried to ease the tense atmosphere with a relaxed tone, but his eyes revealed a hint of embarrassment: "Aunt, don't worry, it's really nothing serious. It's just that Yu Shui... has to go to the courtyard with me."
Seeing this, He Yushui quickly suppressed her anger and forced a smile, not wanting to make the Queen Mother too worried. She walked forward, gently held the Queen Mother's hand, and said softly:
"Mom, don't worry, we are fine. We just need to discuss some things in person. Let's go to the Red Star Courtyard. We won't be back for lunch, so please take care of yourself."
Wang Xin also stood beside He Yushui at the right time and comforted her mother with his steady voice: "Mom, don't worry, I will take good care of Yushui. With me here, she won't be wronged."
Seeing how strong and sensible each of her children was, the Queen Mother felt a little relieved, although the worry in her heart had not completely dissipated.
The Queen Mother gently patted the back of He Yushui's hand, and a complex look flashed in her eyes, which showed both respect for her daughter-in-law's unwillingness to say more and an understanding of the hint in her son's eyes.
In the end, she chose to remain silent and just said softly: "Okay, then you go." There was a hint of helplessness and relief in her words.
He Yushui felt the Queen Mother's understanding and support, and a warm current surged in her heart. She looked at the Queen Mother with gratitude, then turned around and began to neatly pack up the items she needed to take away.
There was a hint of urgency in her movements, as if she was avoiding some emotion that was about to be faced. After packing up, she walked out of the house without saying anything, her back looking firm and resolute.
Seeing this, Wang Xin hurriedly followed He Yushui's steps, his eyes full of concern and protection for her. And He Yuzhu looked at his sister and Wang Xin's backs as they left, with a hint of complex emotions in his eyes.
He took a deep breath, as if adjusting his mood, and then took a step and followed closely.
Walking out of Wang's house, the air outside seemed fresher than inside, but also a little chilly. He Yushui stopped, turned around, and looked directly into He Yuzhu's eyes. There was both fear and expectation in her eyes:
"Brother, you came to me this time and told me all of Yu Haitang's little thoughts. Do you want me to help her cover up the past, or do you want me to forgive her?"
He Yuzhu looked at his sister's clear and determined eyes, and a complex emotion surged in his heart. He spoke slowly, his tone full of sincerity and respect:
"Yushui, I will never make any decisions for you. Your life should be controlled by you. No matter how you choose to face Haitang, I will support you.
But I hope you know that you don’t need to sacrifice yourself for me or anyone else. Your happiness and joy are the most important.”
"Brother, thank you..." He Yushui's voice trembled slightly, and tears of gratitude flashed in his eyes.
She originally thought that her brother would stand on Yu Haitang's side, or plead for her and Yu Haitang out of some kind of favor.
But unexpectedly, He Yuzhu chose to respect her feelings, and this understanding and support made her feel extremely warm.
She looked up at He Yuzhu, her eyes full of gratitude and trust, as if to say: "Brother, it's a good thing you didn't give up on me."
Seeing this, He Yuzhu reached out and gently patted He Yushui's shoulder, his action full of brotherly care and encouragement.
He smiled and shook his head, as if to say, "This is what I should do. There is no need to be polite between us."
At this time, Wang Xin was observing this scene silently. His expression gradually changed from initial doubt and complaint to relief and admiration.
He was originally indignant because Yu Haitang had wronged He Yushui, and even felt a little dissatisfied with his brother-in-law He Yuzhu.
But now, after hearing He Yuzhu's sincere and powerful words, he was completely relieved.
He realized that He Yuzhu was a person who truly knew how to respect and care for his family, and he admired such qualities.
"Brother, Yushui, let's go quickly." Wang Xin broke the silence, his words carrying a hint of urgency and concern, "If we don't go back, our dad will be worried about us."
