Su Haitang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and hurriedly coaxed the child.

   "Auntie didn't say I don't want you, just asked a question. Don't cry, I'm not happy if you cry again."

  Mi Jiajia cried and hiccupped.

   "Don't be unhappy, Auntie. I'm good, Auntie likes me."

  Su Haitang added a little more patience with a headache.

   "Yes, my aunt likes you, but my own children. Don't cry, just listen to me and finish."

  Yuan Ye glared at the children who couldn't stop crying for a while, and rudely stuffed chicken thighs, ribs, and prawns, blocking their mouths.

   "Auntie, you talk, we listen."

   Although Su Haitang was distressed, she knew that it was most important to explain clearly at this time.

   "I'm not lying, I like you and I won't leave you behind. I didn't take you back to the imperial capital to live because I was a soldier and had very little vacation time, so I couldn't accompany you well."

   "My family is very busy. Even if you go back, you can only ask a nanny to take care of you."

   "Since I adopted you, I want to be responsible for you. I don't feel comfortable taking you to a completely unfamiliar environment and leaving them to be taken care of by strangers."

   "And you are here, at least you have friends and neighbors you know. This is also your hometown. Although the environment has changed, at least you will still feel close in your heart."

  Su Haitang explained so much in one breath, and wiped Mi Jiajia's tears with a handkerchief.

   "You only lost your loved ones, and what you need is company. And I can't give you these for the time being, so I choose to keep you here for the time being."

   "When you are ready, go to a completely unfamiliar environment with me and start a new life, then we will return to the imperial capital."

   She deliberately smiled smugly.

   "As for my auntie, I don't need money. You don't have to worry about food and food when you go back to the imperial capital. I can feed you all healthy and strong."

   "It's just that the most worrying thing about my aunt is the hurt in your heart. My aunt is worried that she will take you back now, but if she can't give you enough companionship and care, you will be even more sad."

"So, my aunt decided to ask you to stay here for a while, accompanied by familiar friends, and watch the reconstruction of your hometown with your own eyes. You will feel at ease and feel that your future will be rebuilt step by step. ."

   "That's the explanation, is it clear?"

  Su Haitang looked at the children expectantly. They all widened their eyes and seemed to be listening very seriously.

   "I want to follow Auntie."

  Shi Zhongtian stretched out his arms towards Su Haitang with a milky voice, his face full of trust.

   Huang Yicheng and several others began to follow suit.

   "I want to follow Auntie too!"

   "I will go wherever my aunt is, we are a family."

   "My aunt is fragrant and she smiles so beautifully, just like my mother! I want to see my aunt every day."

  Su Haitang's heart almost turned into water, and she didn't feel noisy, so she patted their heads one by one.

   "Let's have dinner. Auntie has been on the train all night and hasn't eaten a serious meal yet, so hurry up. Well, it's delicious."

  Tian Qingqing and Yuan Ye looked at each other, and they both wiped their eyes secretly, picked up chopsticks and continued to eat.

  Lin Qingluan put a big prawn into Su Haitang's bowl, and said in a low voice, "Auntie, you eat prawns."

  Su Haitang was moved to tears!

   This is the first time this child has taken the initiative to speak to her!

   "You eat too."

  Su Haitang regretted a little, why didn't she talk to the children earlier.

   She always thought they were young, but she never imagined that they had undergone great changes and their minds had been matured a bit, thinking more than ordinary children!

   "I'm actually quite scared too."

   She smiled and decided to communicate with the children as sensible older children.

   "I'm afraid I can't afford the lives of the eight of you, and I'm afraid I'll spoil you."

   "I have no experience, and I am only seven years older than Qingqing."

   "But I am willing to learn to be family with you, a family for life. You also have to learn to trust me."

   "We are family."
