The Little Ancestor Teaches You How To Live-Chapter 1082: They Actually Knew It All Along

Qin Yunzhi turned his head to look at Qin Yanzhi.

Qin Yanzhi had an expression that suggested he had long since understood:

"What’s there to be surprised about? Although we were angry that you haven’t come back for so many years, we also understand you. If it weren’t for something that made it impossible for you to return, you wouldn’t have stayed away for all these years."

Qin Yanzhi spoke with conviction. After all, they were a family. If he couldn’t even think of that, then it would have been in vain being called Big Brother for so many years.

Qin Yanzhi continued, "It’s not just me. Mom and Dad guessed it too. They didn’t say it outright, only because they didn’t want to burst your bubble of the lovely illusion you two tried to create."

Qin Yunzhi and Yan Minmin were so astonished they couldn’t speak.

Susu’s eyes lit up, and she ran to Qin Yanzhi’s side, kneeling beside him with her little knees, "Big Brother, you all knew too?"

Qin Yanzhi’s eyes were still red, but when he saw Susu, a tender smile emerged on his face.

He reached out to pinch Susu’s little nose: "Yes, we all knew. Dad, Mom, the eldest brother, and your second sister-in-law. The eldest sister-in-law might not know, as she has been sick and pregnant, tired from everything, so the eldest brother probably didn’t go into detail about these things, so as not to add to her worries."

"Then Big Brother, have you guessed why Third Brother couldn’t come back?" Susu asked further.

"I don’t know the specifics, but looking at him now, he must have either been chased by someone or warned by someone back then. Anyway, he had a rough time, followed by a bunch of people who were always out for his life, so he didn’t dare to come back until now when he had dealt with his rivals and could return home in glory."

Qin Yanzhi had guessed ninety-five percent correctly.

He couldn’t trace his brother’s past experiences, but he knew his brother’s character and way of handling things, he could infer the course of events from the person involved.

"Big Brother, you’re so smart!" Susu’s eyes twinkled with admiration.

Feeling his sister’s adoring gaze, Qin Yanzhi’s mood improved, and he said with pride, "We are Susu’s brothers, so we must be very smart indeed."

"Not right, Big Brother, if you knew why Third Brother didn’t come home, then why did you hit him?" Susu had another puzzle.

"Who asked him to be so presumptuous? Who asked him to cleverly try to deceive us, thinking that would be better for us? Who needs his kind of condescending concern anyway? What is family? Family is to share in joy and shoulder the difficulties together!"

"Sister, listen to your big brother. In the future, if you encounter any trouble, never think like they do in TV dramas, believing that you can’t worry your family and have to shoulder everything alone—that’s foolish thinking. The hurt of being hidden from, deceived, and excluded is greater than the pain of facing troubles together. Second Brother hates that kind of foolish behavior that tries to touch others while only fooling oneself."

"Ah? But I also helped Third Brother hide it from you all..." Susu muttered.

"Cough cough, what Sister did doesn’t count, because whatever Sister does is always right." Qin Yanzhi’s double standard kicked in again.

All the lines and standards only apply to the men of the Qin Family; for the sister, there are no standards and no lines—wherever Sister is, that’s where the standards and the lines are.

After listening to the conversation between Qin Yanzhi and Susu, Qin Yunzhi and Yan Minmin were too moved to speak.

The feeling of being understood and comforted caused ripples in their hearts; as warmth filled the new room, their eyes also moistened.
