Guan Zherui looked up in surprise and asked, "Your third brother?"

"Yeah." Xia Guokang nodded, frowned slightly and said, "My third brother is the most useless among us brothers and sisters, especially after he got involved in gambling..."

Xia Guokang’s younger brother Xia Guozhang is the third child in the family and the third brother of Xia Huiyin and Xia Huimeng.

Unlike his other brothers and sisters, Xia Guozhang became addicted to gambling in his early years and has been unable to stop since then.

His family has helped him pay off his gambling debts several times. Each time he promised to quit gambling, but he never kept his word.

Later, Xia Guocheng and others had no choice but to kick him out of the house, and threatened that the Xia family had no son like him and his gambling debt had nothing to do with the family.

Later, Xia Guozhang restrained himself a lot, found a job as a laborer, and even got married and had a son.

Later, he returned home with his wife and children. Seeing this, his family accepted him again and promised to give him another chance. But before long, his family found out that he had relapsed into gambling, so he was kicked out again...

After he was kicked out of the house again, he never dared to contact his family again, but he would borrow money from his second brother Xia Guokang from time to time.

Although Xia Guokang didn't want to bother with him, he was afraid that he would come to his unit to cause trouble. Anyway, he only asked for 300 yuan for meals every time, so Xia Guokang just gave him the money as if he was sending away a beggar.

"After the natural disaster, he asked me several times about my mother's new address. At first, I was afraid that he would cause trouble for my family, so I didn't tell him."

"I just called him and told him the address of Xindu Community..."

Xia Guokang thought that after Xia Guozhang went there, Li Qin and his elder brother would definitely not leave him alone.

On the one hand, this way I can avoid causing trouble for them and vent my father-in-law's anger. On the other hand, with Xia Guozhang around, he can also help take care of my father-in-law, killing two birds with one stone!

Thinking of this, Xia Guokang patted Guan Zherui's shoulder distressedly and comforted her: "Don't worry, my third brother is here, he will definitely help take care of your parents!"

On the other hand, after leaving the Xia family, Guan Zheling and Guan Li were helpless but still decided to go to 1505 to buy a bed.

The weather is getting colder and the ground is icy. A thin tent is not enough to resist the chill that seeps up from the ground.

If they still sleep on the floor tonight, I'm afraid the two children will still be woken up by the cold.

Guan Zhe-ling brought her boyfriend Zhang Fu to room 1505. After knocking on the door, they first introduced themselves and told Aunt Fan that they were new neighbors who had moved into room 1604. They also explained their purpose to Aunt Fan.

When Aunt Fan heard the two of them say they wanted to buy a bed for their own family, she nodded happily.

She had originally planned to sell the two beds on the black market, but they were too expensive, so she never thought about how to do it.

Seeing that someone came to buy, she quickly invited them into the bedroom.

Aunt Fan pointed at the big bed in the second bedroom and introduced it with a smile: "I have only slept on this bed a few times since I bought it. It is brand new... By the way, how many people are there in your family? This bed is two meters wide, so it is more than enough for two adults and a child to sleep on it!"

Guan Zheling replied: "There are a total of 3 people in our family, 3 adults and 2 children."

Aunt Fan said, "I see... I have a one-meter bed in my guest bedroom. You can put the two beds together and the whole family can sleep on it. There will be no problem at all."

Guan Zhe Ling sighed when he heard this and thought, this is the only way.
