"Why……"

A sigh in silence finally broke the depressing atmosphere by a mother-in-law.

"Oh, okay, why are you talking about this? Muer, you just came home today. It would be better to have a happier atmosphere."

The mother-in-law's complaints made the nearly stagnant atmosphere on the table melt away. The other three people smiled together, and the joyful atmosphere returned to the table.

"Oh, yes, look, it's rare to go home, I can't take it for a few days at home. Why do you mention these unhappy things? I won't mention this anymore, I won't mention this anymore..."

My father smiled apologized and taught Zhao Mu a lesson.

"Look at you, others are happy when they come home. You can't help but come home, and you will know how to make things difficult for your grandparents and grandma."

Zhao Mu smiled and admitted his mistake and took the initiative to apologize.

"Haha, it's me wrong. If you don't mention these, let's be happier."

As he said that, Zhao Mu raised his glass again.

"Grandpa, mother-in-law, dad, I said the wrong thing just now. I wish you this cup. I hope you are healthy at home. My son is busy working outside and has less time to go home with you. Please forgive me."

This sentence is correct. Grandpa, mother-in-law, and dad all smiled and picked up the wine glasses.

Sitting in the seat, grandfather raised his wine glass with his right hand and gently touched the wine glass with Zhao Mu's hands. Zhao Mu, who stood up, consciously bowed his waist slightly, making the height of the wine glass in his hand slightly lower than grandfather's wine glass.

The two wine glasses were clinking, and grandpa raised them and said to Zhao Mu: "Mu'er, let the past happen! Although your college entrance examination results are not ideal, you are promising now and have a good job to make a lot of money. This is better than anything else."

"Um."

Zhao Mu listened carefully to his grandfather's words and kept every word he said firmly in his heart.

Looking at my grandfather's turbid eyes, I looked old, but there was no trace of bloodshot that had once made Zhao Mu feel extremely ashamed, which made Zhao Mu deeply happy for him.

Grandpa worked hard all his life for this family.

The burden of the family was all on his not-so-broad shoulders, not only his father, but also his eldest son, second son, youngest daughter, and even his brothers and sisters of his generation.

Since I remembered that Zhao Mu had been fighting, my grandfather had gone out early and returned late every day, and he never slept for no more than seven hours a day. He could often see him sitting there in less than ten minutes and fall asleep.

I spent the most thoughts, always ate the cheapest meals, wore the cheapest clothes, and lived in the cheapest hotels...

For this family, my grandfather worked hard until he was over 60 years old, day after day, year after year.

The years of hard work always made my grandfather's eyes full of blood, which made Zhao Mu scared and worried when he was a child.

Now, Zhao Mu is extremely grateful for all his grandfather’s efforts for this family. He silently supported the family with his not-high body and not-wide shoulders and became the backbone of the family.

If it weren't for the family, I had finally had a little success and could support the burden on my family, my grandfather wouldn't have had the leisure time in the past two years. I still had to continue to work hard for this family with his old body. I don't know when I will be able to get rid of it.

Perhaps, the day of liberation can only be the day when you finally pass away.

If this is true, then how hard and tiring this life will be.

I worked hard all my life and had no time to rest, just for my own home. There was no leisure, no space for my own. Even my childhood, which should have been carefree, was often worried about a foreseeable heavy future.

However, it is not only grandpa who has such a gray-black life.

In the village, there are many people like Grandpa who have worked hard all their lives. Grandpa is just one of them who has performed very well and done very well.

And leaving his own village, next door village, other villages in the same county and township... There are countless remote, poor rural areas in China, with countless similar and even more tragic stories.

Fortunately, the motherland is growing stronger day by day, and people's living standards are getting better day by day. The younger generation is, the better they can enjoy a better material living standard.

Even, with the so-called princess disease, the young master disease!

However, no matter how society changes, how superior life becomes, family, and responsibilities are topics that every man can never avoid in his life.

Unlike the romantic and sweetness of love, family is serious; responsibility is heavy; and life is above it, colorful, making people happy and sad; giving people laughter and crying; giving people hope, it also erases the dreams of countless people...

Looking at the grandfather in front of him, although there was the turbidity of the elderly in his eyes, there was no longer the bloodshot that once made people both scared and sad. The improvement looked much better than in previous years. Zhao Mu felt much more at ease.

"Well, I understand." Zhao Mu replied solemnly.

After grandpa, the mother-in-law also reminded Zhao Mu: "Mu'er, work well outside and make money well. If you have time, go home to see us. If you don't have time, you can call us often..."

My mother-in-law's words didn't end for a long time, which made Yipan's grandfather frown and said impatiently:

"Where did you come from so much? We are at home and we always ask Mu'er to go home to see us? Don't you know he is busy with work?"

"What's wrong with me talking to you? You have to worry about this too? Really, I'm so slap."

The mother-in-law said unswervingly, obviously dissatisfied with the interruption of her words.

"Where did you come from so many words? Haven't you seen Mu'er standing and raising his cup for a long time? Is there anything you want to sit down before saying it?" Grandpa's loud voice raised, and it was the case every time his words were refuted.

"Okay, let's not say it, can I not say it?"

The mother-in-law muttered, and then said to Zhao Mu: "Okay, Mu'er, you sit down and have a meal first. We'll talk about anything later."

At the end of the sentence, the mother-in-law complained: "You have heard it all, and then, someone has changed to a fire."

"I always have a loud voice, it's really..."

"Hey, you guys, you still have some clarity, right?"

Hearing my mother-in-law's mutter, my grandfather suddenly stared at her, and his voice suddenly increased.

"Dad, drink, drink and eat."

Yipang's father said to his grandfather repeatedly, dispelling his next words and dispelling his anger.

Zhao Mu also quickly advised: "Grandpa, don't mention this, don't mention this..."

Seeing that grandpa took back his words and kept silent, Zhao Mu and his father were relieved at the same time.

Fortunately, it was not allowed to erupt, Grandpa's volcano, otherwise with his violent temper, the atmosphere of the meal today would be completely gone.

"Dad, I respect you."

Zhao Mu decisively changed the topic and could not let the topic stay there just now.

"Okay, Mu'er, we two grandfathers don't need to say so much. I understand a lot of what you want to say, dad." Dad raised his glass and said straightforwardly.

"I'll just say one thing."

"Don't worry, work outside and earn money, just be careful. If you have your dad at home, you don't have to worry about anything. Your grandparents and mother-in-law will take care of you."

"Come on, drink, don't say so much." Grandpa raised his glass and ran into Zhao Mu.

"Yes, drink, eat."

Four wine glasses were clinking together, and the four people smiled at the same time, either happy or relieved. Similarly, the four people had the same happy mood.

After a glass of wine, the atmosphere on the table became lively, and the smiles on everyone's faces never fell for a moment.

Drinking the old wine that my grandfather had treasured for many years, eating the delicious meals that my dad prepared for a day, enjoying the taste of home, and chatting about family matters, Zhao Mu was in a very relaxed and happy mood.

Home is always a harbor for the soul and a place where a tired and tired heart can rest and rest.

Here, you don’t have to wear any hypocritical mask, or you don’t have to restrain yourself with your public image, let alone be silly with people you don’t like.

Although this is your usual personality, and you often have the same personality when working outside. However, it is never as comfortable and leisurely as at home.

When the conversation was just around the corner, the mother-in-law sighed: "What a pity, Yue'er has not come back. If he comes back, it will be even more lively."

On this side of the empire, various aircraft were fighting hard to resist under the siege of monsters. There were countless people on the ground who were carrying various weapons that were either forward or backward, attacking the monsters on the ground regardless of life and death.

Often, when a huge monster waves its forelimbs, the lives of a group of people disappear like this. What is left on the ground are broken limbs and broken arms, and blood covers the entire earth.

What makes people most angry and desperate is that these monsters even bow their heads and swallow them directly, but in this process, the wounds on their bodies slowly healed in this process.

How to fight this? These huge creatures were originally so defensive, so it was difficult to cause damage to them. Now their wounds can heal, and they were swallowed by swallowing corpses, which made people angry and a little weak.

In the resistance team, many of the weapons used are similar to lasers or other various energy weapons.

However, Zhao Mu could clearly see that the shells on these monsters have a high defense against the damage of these energy weapons. General energy weapons cannot cause damage to them. Only some energy weapons that look obviously strong or combined attacks from many energy weapons can kill them.

The most important thing is that these monsters have strong close-fitting skills. Often, they approach aircraft or humans with the damage of energy weapons that do not harm them, and quickly approach them. Then, after being approached by them, the ending is usually caused by the monsters.

【    Fast update】

Unlike these advanced energy weapons, there are actually some backward thermal weapons on the battlefield, but the damage to these monsters by these thermal weapons seems to be much larger than obvious energy weapons.

Often, the explosion of ZTE shells or missiles when they came can cause huge damage to monsters, leaving behind a bunch of monster corpses. Even some weapons in guns can cause enough damage to them.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Mu turned his head and looked at Chen Mengyue in confusion and asked: "What's going on? Why do we think advanced weapons can damage them less than the damage of thermal weapons that look backward?"

Hearing Zhao Mu's question, Chen Mengyue showed a sad expression, "This is a major reason why our empire died. These monsters may be because of their innate devouring ability and have strong resistance to the damage of our energy weapons. Unless the energy is strong to a certain extent, it is difficult to cause enough damage to them. On the contrary, thermal weapons can cause enough physical damage to them. Unfortunately, thermal weapons were abandoned by us shortly after our civilization walked out of the Zuxing, due to huge pollution and huge destructive power, and instead began the research of various energy weapons. Later, after our civilization had not met the enemy for a long time, even the research of energy weapons slowed down and even put aside the research."

"Oh, the devouring ability can resist the damage of energy weapons. This is the innate demon resistance too high..." After hearing Chen Mengyue's words, Zhao Mu thought of the magic resistance attributes in various games. He wanted to complain, but when he saw the sadness on Chen Mengyue's face, he resisted the words he wanted to complain about next.

"But their resistance to energy weapons is really strong, and it's too perverted."

"This is because our civilization and peace have forgotten the consequences of war for too long. If we could deal with it earlier, we would not be so passive. These monsters can improve their defense by constantly devouring. Before that, they had already devoured the resources of most planets in our empire. Of course, their resistance is very strong now. The most important thing is that they can constantly devour resources to reproduce. So the war goes to the end, their number does not decrease, but instead increases."

Speaking of this, Chen Mengyue's face showed sadness and regret.

"Oh, they can also devour various resources, not just devouring creatures?"

"Yes, their nature is destined to be impossible for us to coexist between the two species, so when we understand this, we know that we must fight to the end."

After saying that, Chen Mengyue said, look, these are the footprints they left after passing by. While speaking, Chen Mengyue was a little in the space in front, and another picture appeared in part of the space in front.

This is such a desolate picture. When you see it, you first see a gray-white planet. As the picture slowly approaches, the earth, mountains, rivers, oceans appear... and what makes Zhao Mu frightened. After seeing all the places, Zhao Mu did not see any greenness at all.

Everything is gray and white, and there are no trees on the earth. You can occasionally see some dead roots of fallen trees in the passing pictures.
