Chapter 2341 - 2342: Qin Shujie Makes Amends

Sponsored

When Qin Shujie arrived at the backyard, Ye Xunhuan was squatting beside Qin Pojun, smoking a cigarette, his face full of tranquility and ease, while casually chatting with Qin Pojun about everything under the sun.

"I’ve heard about your adventures abroad too. Tell me about them!"

"Well, I haven’t heard about your time as a soldier and your battles. Tell me about that!"

Qin Pojun chuckled lightly, "You, you, really don’t like taking a loss, do you? There’s nothing much to tell, just endless artillery fire, and surely you’ve experienced it!"

"That’s not what I want to hear about. Tell me how you met my grandma. Was it like in those TV dramas, where you met amid the artillery fire, fell in love, and finally stepped into the hall of marriage?"

"And while you’re at it, tell me how you won over my grandma..."

"Your imagination is really something!" Qin Pojun said with a laugh, "Back then, where did we have time for romance? We spent our days on the front line, fighting the enemy with bayonets!"

"Then how did you meet my grandma?"

"Back in the day, the Qin family wasn’t poor. By today’s standards, we might have been called landowners, weren’t we?"

"Then how come you weren’t criticized..."

"I had awareness early on and joined the revolution, loyal and patriotic!" Qin Pojun snorted, his face filled with pride, "I gave away the wealth early, distributed the land, and rushed to the front lines!"

"At that time, I and your other two grandfathers were known as the Three Great Qin Heroes!" Qin Pojun’s proud expression grew even stronger, as if he had returned to that era, that era which belonged to him, that era which filled him with vigor and spirit!

"We three brothers were quite renowned at that time, the Japanese even offered three thousand silver coins for our heads, any one of us!"

"But nobody dared to touch us, of course, they couldn’t kill us, it’s just that..."

As he spoke, Qin Pojun’s expression dimmed somewhat, "It’s just that your other two grandfathers still stood their ground on the battlefield, and even their remains couldn’t be found!"

The Qin family, seemingly so illustrious, a noble family, but this was built from the blood of Qin family ancestors, built from the lives and blood of two generations.

Looking at Qin Pojun’s dim expression, Ye Xunhuan felt a solemn respect.

He wasn’t able to participate in the war back then, but he could imagine the scene of endless artillery fire, and also knew how painful it must be to see brothers die on the battlefield without even finding their remains.

"Grandpa, don’t be sad. I believe my other two grandpas were prepared to die on the battlefield, to lie buried there!" Ye Xunhuan gently comforted, "Now, as they look down from the heavens, seeing this country so beautiful and growing stronger, and seeing you so healthy, they must be quite comforted!"

There are many kinds of heroes in this world, but those who take up the pen for the military, defend the nation, and fight bravely in battles are true heroes!

The Qin family has heroes, and even now, their heroic spirits have never extinguished.

"You’re right, their spirits in heaven would surely be comforted." Qin Pojun said heavily.

"But Grandpa, our topic is wandering off, I was asking about my grandma!"

"Your grandma is simple. Back then, it was just an arranged marriage. The two of us didn’t meet until the wedding day; we hadn’t seen each other before!"

Upon hearing Qin Pojun’s simple words, Ye Xunhuan found himself momentarily speechless.

But what Qin Pojun said was true; during that era, who would have the mood for romance or feelings? Surviving was good enough, and for women, there was one more hope — not getting harmed by the Japanese!

"So, you and my grandma didn’t have the kind of dramatic love story like in TV series?"

"TV series are all lies," Qin Pojun said indifferently, "But documentaries have quite high realism!"

"Alright, stop talking. You’re just an unromantic soldier!" Ye Xunhuan said helplessly, "I really wonder why grandma didn’t just kick you aside and find someone else back then!"

"You think women back then were as impatient as people now?"

Ye Xunhuan really had nothing to say about this, since he hadn’t experienced it, but indeed people nowadays seem more impatient.

While Ye Xunhuan and Qin Pojun were joking around, Qin Shujie’s rustling footsteps came into their ears.

Upon hearing these rustling footsteps, both immediately turned their heads towards the source of the sound.

In the next moment, Qin Shujie’s figure came into their sight.

Seeing Qin Shujie, a doubt immediately rose in Ye Xunhuan’s mind.

What’s this guy here for?

You should know yesterday, Ye Xunhuan didn’t give Qin Shujie a good face, even making Qin Shujie lose face in front of the whole Qin family.

Yet now Qin Shujie has come again, what’s his business?

At this moment, Ye Xunhuan didn’t think Qin Shujie was here to find him, after all, what happened last night was still there!

After arriving beside Qin Pojun and Ye Xunhuan, Qin Shujie immediately shouted to Qin Pojun, "Dad..."

"What’s up, no social engagements today, coming to see me!" Qin Pojun said softly.

"My engagements are neither here nor there," Qin Shujie said with a smile, "And you know those people who look for me, all have ulterior motives, today I turned them all down!"

"This isn’t like you."

Qin Pojun knows his son quite well, after all, a father knows his children best!

"Dad, actually I thought about it after I went back yesterday, and realized what I did was somewhat wrong, my words were a bit too harsh." Qin Shujie slowly changed the topic, "I came here today to check on you, and also hoping you wouldn’t be upset; you know my mouth!"

"It’s good that you know your mistake." Qin Pojun’s face showed a comforting expression.

Qin Pojun also doesn’t want to see the Qin family embroiled in tension, or rather, no elder would want to see that.

Now that Qin Shujie realized his mistake and came to admit it, this was something Qin Pojun hadn’t expected, so he felt quite comforted!

Then, Qin Shujie turned his gaze to Ye Xunhuan, "Xunhuan, your uncle’s words yesterday were a bit harsh, don’t take it to heart. I’m here to apologize to you!"

As the saying goes, one doesn’t punch a smiling face; even if Ye Xunhuan isn’t fond of Qin Shujie, now that Qin Shujie has come to apologize, there’s nothing Ye Xunhuan could say.

"Second Uncle, the wrong words are mine. I was also impulsive yesterday and acted out. You’re the mature one who won’t hold it against the young!"

"It’s nothing, you’re my nephew, my big sister’s son. Big sister was always so good to me during her life; I couldn’t bear a grudge against you, or it would make me less of a person!"
