Chapter 768 Wan Lao’s Suffering
Thank you for sending mooncakes to my dear friends.
-------------------
After sitting around for a while after lunch, Lin Mengran and Li Xinli went back to school first. They both lived on campus, and everyone in the dormitory hadn't arrived yet, so it was necessary to go back and keep an eye on them.
Although it is said that one should not think the worst of people, if something happens and everyone is in trouble, it is better to be more careful from the beginning.
After taking a nap, Zhao Yulan made fruit tea, and everyone gathered around to drink tea and chat. Chu Xia hesitated and looked at Mr. Wan: "Grandpa, is Mrs. Yin still at her parents' home?"
"Well, I'm still living at my parents' house. I'm planning to discuss it with you. She has some experience in taking care of pregnant women. How about letting her come over to help?" He added as if he was afraid that everyone would misunderstand that this was a mandatory decision. , "If Xiao Qin is experienced in this area, let her stay in City A. It just so happens that the house there is unattended."
Of course Zhao Yulan and Lin Baohe hoped that Sister Yin would come over, but all this was arranged by the Zhou family. The couple looked at each other without saying a word.
"Father, mother, I force you again. This is the home of your two elders. There is a place where Chuxia and I are, and both of you can make the decision..." Zhou Mikang turned to look at Mr. Wan, "Grandpa Wan, although you are Chuxia Godfather, but in her heart, you are her biological grandfather.
Therefore, whether you want Sister-in-law Yin to come over mainly depends on your wishes. You should understand what I mean. I hope that what you make is a decision from the bottom of your heart. "
Chu Xia looked at Zhou Mikang in confusion: "Who do you want to make the decision?"
"Why are you so stupid?" Zhou Mikang glared at her, "This is your grandpa. You live with grandpa and your parents. Who do you think should make the decision?"
"Who should make the decision?" Chu Xia repeated reflexively, suddenly, "Yes, this is the home of grandpa and parents, of course they can make the decision.
But grandpa still has the final say in this matter..." She looked at Mr. Wan. "Grandpa, my thoughts are the same as Zhou Mikang's. "
Because there were rumors in the compound that Mr. Wan and Mrs. Yin were going to live together, and Mr. Wan also had this idea at that time. But there was no news after that, so she was not sure what the old man was thinking now.
"Then let her come over..." Seeing that everyone was a little worried about this topic, Mr. Wan sighed, "There is nothing that cannot be said between Xiao Yin and I.
You all also know,
Originally, I planned to live with her. I am not young anymore, and she is not young either. Her parents were very happy when they took advantage of her, but will they treat her well in the future? There's really no way to tell.
Of course, with me, it is unknown whether I can take care of her until she grows old. After all, I am several years older than her, which was something I was worried about originally. But then I thought about it, there are no young or old on the road to Huangquan, and they are always afraid of wolves in front of them and tigers in back, so everything will be delayed.
So, I talked to her at that time, and after thinking about it, she agreed to my proposal. To be honest, there would be less gossip.
Unexpectedly, her mother-in-law's family came before this matter was put on the agenda. You were all busy at that time, so you didn't go there often, and I didn't tell you some things.
Her eldest brother, sister-in-law, younger brother, daughter-in-law, nephews and nieces all lived there in the past. It was because I got the letter from her that she wanted to marry me, and she planned to live with us in the future.
Moreover, what they meant was that at such an old age, I wanted to be with Xiao Yin. I am taking advantage. I should take care of Xiao Yin from now on, not her.
They hope that I will hand over all the family property to Xiao Yin, and then adjust the work of her elder brother, sister-in-law, younger siblings, and arrange the work of my nieces and nephews.
They also made a request that I really couldn't accept, asking me to inform the organization in advance that if I left early, Xiao Yin would still have to live in the house.
When they made these requests, Xiao Yin kept trying to stop them, but it was of no use. In their eyes, they were family members, so it was natural for them to do so. In the end, Xiao Yin's parents were saved. He said that the old man and the old lady were not in good health and were unwilling to move, so they were asked to be plenipotentiary. If they didn't do it well, it would be unfilial.
As soon as this big hat was pressed, I really had nothing to say. I had no choice but to ask Xiaoyin to stop marrying me. She would still be my nanny. Whenever the organization changed her job, she would follow the organization's arrangements.
Angry that her elder brother, sister-in-law, and younger siblings didn't believe her, she called Director Su who arranged for her to come over in front of them.
Then, after some hard talking, her eldest brother, sister-in-law, younger brothers and sisters returned to their home with their nephews and nieces. Why should I follow you to the ancestral home of the Zhou family?
I was just afraid of them, so I went there as soon as I had nothing to do, and on the pretext of visiting Xiao Yin, I persuaded us to get together in front of me. How embarrassing do you think it was?
If we don't move, Xiao Yin really doesn't plan to work at my place anymore and goes to your house. No matter how bold they are, they won't dare to force their way into Zhou's house.
It was really difficult for her to stay with her parents for such a long time this time. Her parents are old and can't be the masters of their son. They couldn't protect her even if they wanted to. Although she didn't say anything, I knew it after thinking about it. She must be having a hard time at her parents' house day in and day out.
Therefore, even if I don’t ask in early summer today, I still have to discuss this matter. I can’t let her stay at her parents’ house anymore. I will either change her job or give her a place to stay. If I don’t care about it anymore, it would be too much. It’s not authentic anymore. "
"Grandpa, why didn't you tell me earlier that we could take Sister Yin with us when we came..." Chu Xia looked at Mr. Wan angrily, "You still don't treat us as a family?"
"No, I was so anxious at the time that I forgot about it." Mr. Wan sighed, "I have never done anything bad in my life, so why am I living so uneasily?"
"Aunt Wan is still complaining that you didn't help, right?" Wang Zhongliang and Qin Yingfen went to the market, and there were no outsiders at home, so Chu Xia asked truthfully. Anyway, this matter would have to be discussed sooner or later, so why not take advantage of Zhou Mikang's presence here? , let’s talk about it, so that the old man won’t feel uncomfortable holding it back.
"Yes, I originally planned to stay at Long's home until the tenth day of the lunar month and then go back. As a result, she came over with Xiaoyan and definitely asked me to stay at home for a few days.
For many years, I have been hoping that my daughter would really treat me as her father. Therefore, seeing her sincere words, even though I knew in my heart that it might be an appearance, I still chose to believe it.
She and Qian Jubing did well in the first two days. They called me daddy easily, and Xiaoyan was older than her grandfather. I was really happy, and I felt that God was wise, and the dirt was buried up to my neck. At that time, I finally got my wish and could share a family relationship with my biological daughter and her family.
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Qian Jubing's parents also went, and the whole family got together. This was the first time..." After a pause, Wan Lao smiled bitterly, "Probably, this is also the last time.
Halfway through the meal, Wan Yuqiong began to cry. Qian Jubing coaxed her, saying that it was a happy reunion day, so why should she be sad? Qian Hongmin and his wife also sighed and persuaded her.
Wan Yuqiong cried while telling about the suffering she had suffered since she was a child. She said that it was not until she married into the Qian family that she truly knew what family was and what happiness was. She said it was okay for her to suffer a little, but she just didn't want her children to suffer too.
Next, the whole family sighed one after another. Qian Hongmin complained that he had gone the wrong way and harmed his son while drinking. Qian Jubing complained that he was incompetent.
Qian Yan and Qian Gang looked at all the elders crying and sighing, then they knelt down beside me and begged me to help their family and save their family..." After another heavy sigh, Mr. Wan continued, " In that scene, in anyone's eyes, I, an old man, was hard-hearted and heartless.
But, is this something I can get involved with? This is not children's play. Even if she is my biological daughter, even if I really feel I owe her and really feel sorry for her, I can't embarrass my old friend.
My old friend is a grateful person, but I can't take advantage of him just because he values friendship. In that case, am I still a human being? Of course, I believe that as long as I bring it up, he will definitely help, but what if the help is finished?
This is a major matter involving the development of the country. Not to mention that their lives are not as good as before, even if their lives are about to be lost, I will not come forward.
If you do something wrong, you have to bear it yourself. When you stand in line, you should think of this day. If you don't want to be a responsible person, don't do things you can't bear.
I can't do this because of old friends. I'm not considering my own interests or worrying about what will happen to me in the future. I'm making a choice based on my conscience.
We ended up having a bad time that night, and I wanted to leave the next day. Wan Yuqiong cried and begged me to forgive me, saying that she just drank too much and said drunken things, saying that she really wanted to be with me. Living with father.
After all, she looked really pitiful for her, so I stayed. I didn't have to help her, but I couldn't really leave her without caring about her.
Speaking of which, my father is indeed incompetent, so I also hope that I can do my best to make up for her during my lifetime. Unfortunately, she will not understand my thoughts.
She kept me at Qian's house just to make me compromise. Every day, she recalled the past with me, including how much her mother suffered and suffered, repeating it over and over again.
If Xiaomi hadn't come to find her, I don't know how long I would have stayed there. As long as I told her to leave, she would burst into tears. As a father, I really can't be cruel! "
Seeing everyone looking at him in confusion, Zhou Mixang quickly said: "I didn't use any coercive means. I just told her that Mr. Long asked me to pick up Wan Lao."
"How do you know grandpa is unhappy there?" Chu Xia stared at Zhou Mikang in confusion, "It's hard for grandpa to call you and complain to you when he's at Qian's house, right?"
