When Tan Shaoting got ho, he fetched so water and started tidying up the house. He knew his wife’s habits well.
Hu Zi and four others helped with the chores. To be honest, the house was already very clean, just needed to clear a layer of surface dust.
The five of them carefully followed behind. Their old boss hadn’t spoken since coming back.
Su Yuanyuan waited in the yard with the kids. With people doing the work, naturally, she didn’t have to lift a finger.
Once Tan Shaoting finished tidying up, he cautiously looked at Su Yuanyuan, "The living room is clean now. You and the kids can go in; I’ll clean the bedroom next."
"Thank you."
Tan Shaoting frowned. What kind of words are these? Isn’t this to be expected?
The three kids also sensed sothing was off between their parents. But, now that they just got back, they hadn’t spent enough ti with Mom yet and paid no attention to Dad. After all, they were now back, and there was plenty of ti.
With Hu Zi and the others, Tan Shaoting continued tidying the rooms, making it easier to talk.
Hu Zi cautiously asked, "Boss, what’s going on?"
Tan Shaoting continued his work without pausing. "I lost my mory and lived in Japan for five years. Only rembered so things this year, but still not everything. I’m familiar with you guys, but can’t quite recall everything."
Now, the four of them understood why the boss seed so distant.
"Boss, how did you get by these past five years?"
"I was saved by an elderly widower. Probably saw our father-son quartet as soone to rely on in old age. But thanks to him, otherwise, there would’ve been no way to survive, not knowing the language and with little kids."
"Boss, ever since the accident, Sister-in-law seed to have gone mad. She might have sensed sothing and swam over without a boat. They said when they found her; she had already swum halfway."
Moreover, when she learned how you got into trouble, she threw bombs directly into the sky. At that ti, no one around her dared to stop her.
By the ti we got word and rushed over, Sister-in-law had already cald down a lot.
Back in the Capital, she avenged you. She didn’t spare any mber of Hou Wanzhong’s family."
Listening to this, Tan Shaoting felt heartache, stood up, and let out a long sigh. Fighting back tears, he thought about how difficult it must have been for her. The sense of guilt in his heart overwheld him.
After a few minutes, "How did she lose her mory?"
Daqing bitterly explained, "It was during the public trial of Hou Wanzhong. Soone gathered everyone, including the big leaders, to witness it.
That day, the crowd was massive, and there were a few terrorists. Sister-in-law was injured by a bomb trying to save the leader."
Tan Shaoting recalled the scene he saw in the mirror. This ti, tears fell. He had vowed to protect her for life, but during the accident, he wasn’t by her side. All the danger and hardships were borne by her alone, making him feel useless.
Slowly, his eyes reddened, and it was Chengzi who noticed. He shouted, "Boss, Sister-in-law has been waiting for you all."
The other three were also startled. But given the situation, no one dared to approach the boss.
Tan Shaoting gradually composed himself. He nodded lightly. "Go on."
"Boss, actually we don’t know much either. Just last year, I stayed by Sister-in-law’s side, supposedly to protect her, but I was never needed," Chengzi said helplessly.
Da Biao spoke up, "Boss, Sister-in-law woke up a few days after getting injured. At that ti, she didn’t rember anything, so we all agreed not to tell her.
During that ti, your life and death were uncertain. She had forgotten, but could still live normally in this world. We felt Sister-in-law had no drive aside from avenging you, not eating, and just daydreaming at the garrison."
Tan Shaoting nodded, that’s what he would have done. But how could anyone hide it from her?
Da Biao continued, "You know, Boss, how could we hide it from Sister-in-law? But she never asked us anything.
She didn’t want us to take care of her, moving back by herself after two months, then took a train to the south."
Hu Zi chid in, "In the south, it was Sister-in-law who saved . Otherwise, neither of us, Da Linzi, would be alive.
Also, Sister-in-law joined an archeological team. We really don’t know why she was so passionate about such things at the ti.
During that archeological expedition, we learned Shao Hongming was in charge. Sister-in-law also got acquainted with the Zeng Family in the south, a Taoist priest, and a Tomb Raider Captain.
Every year, Sister-in-law would go to the sea. The fifteenth of July beca her only reason to stay here.
She lived by the sea for a while, accompanied by the Zeng Family’s female mber.
So of us said Sister-in-law joined because Lu Chengmin was too cunning. At that ti, soone from the Zhou Family had bad intentions towards her, and she dealt with them.
Lu Chengmin gave her many docunts to translate, which led to her sudden decision to join.
Later, they even unloaded the finances on Sister-in-law. So for nearly three years, she was always busy.
Many things happened during that ti. But Sister-in-law always managed to get through them."
Tan Shaoting nodded. "Does your Sister-in-law go out frequently?"
This ti, Chengzi replied, "Yes, Sister-in-law is very capable. She knows everything. Every ti she goes out, everything goes very smoothly."
Tan Shaoting nodded. They had already cleaned up three rooms for the kids. Just needed to put in the bedding.
He opened the boxes in each room, and there was bedding in each, all sun-dried now.
Next ca the study and their bedroom.
Su Yuanyuan was in the living room with the three kids. They didn’t talk about the Cultivation World, just things happening on this side.
"Do you rember the kid with the surna Zhuang? This year, Mom spent the New Year at the garrison, and he greeted . He used to say you, siblings, would definitely co back."
The three kids nodded. They had few playmates, and he was one of them.
"When you have ti, go to the garrison and see your friends."
"Mom, you have to co with us."
Su Yuanyuan nodded, "No problem, but I have work. It’s unrealistic to go during the dayti. After work, we’ll head over there. We still have the house we used to live in."
Of course, the three kids rembered the house at the garrison. After all, it was the place they rembered as ho. To them, that was ho.
"Mom, will your future work be very busy?" Qi Hong asked.
"Yes, but you three can be with . It’s ti for you to start school. Study with for a while, then go to school."
