Tang Yuan and Baozi were drowsily leaning on their seats.
Brother Yong was sitting next to them.
A middle-aged woman looked at the two children who were too sleepy to keep their eyes open and said with some sympathy.
"You're a grown man traveling with two kids, it must be really tiring. Why isn't your wife with you? What if you're not careful and lose the kids on the way? Look how sleepy they are."
Brother Yong smiled, "Comrade, it's not like there's no way around it. The kids' mom is sick, so sick that she's in the hospital now, being looked after by her grandma. I really can't manage everything, between work and taking care of her mom.
I can't take care of them, so I'm sending them back to the hometown for their grandparents to watch over. Otherwise, I won't be able to keep the household running."
He looked honest and simple, the sunglasses above his eyes removed revealing an eye patch.
He didn't seem vicious.
The adults around sighed.
