"What exactly happened?"
"Nothing!" Shen Luhua shook her head, "You guys are busy, we'll be leaving now."
The couple declined the Xu Xianxiong couple's invitation, and together they headed back to their village. On the way home, Shen Luhua sighed quietly, "Lao San, I need to go home once."
For so many years, she never mentioned her family, her own family.
"I haven't been home for fifteen years, and I really need to go back."
Sheng Laosan never asked where her home was or what the situation was, completely trusting and accommodating her.
"Then when will you return?" His tone was as calm as if his wife was going home for a celebration, "I should go with you!"
"No need, I don't want you to struggle." That home is full of people who devour you whole without leaving a trace, how could she bear to let her honest and kind-hearted husband suffer there?
Having been a turtle hiding in its shell for so many years, she should face reality now.
