Chapter 193 Filial Piety

Chapter 193 Filial Piety

Xu Yue'e and Chen Juan were watching TV on the sofa, while Chen Guilan was standing on the balcony holding Xiao Suisui, looking at the green ivy, and holding her little hand to let her touch the leaves.

Su Jiaojiao likes green plants. She bought two pots of green ivy in the snack street. They are growing lushly and are easy to grow.

As soon as Wang Yunying entered the house, she said, "Guilan, your home is too simply decorated, it's as if there's no decoration at all."

There is no wallpaper, just some putty.

The floor was covered with gray tiles. It wasn’t ugly, but it wasn’t pretty either.

The light on the first floor is not as bright as on the fifth floor.

"No, you can still tell." Chen Guichang walked and looked, "It's pretty good to pretend like this."

"Uncle, aunt." Chen Juan stood up and greeted them. She hadn't seen them since she ran away from their house last time, and she felt a little embarrassed.

"Juan is here too!" Wang Yunying glanced at her, then looked at Xu Yue'e and Xiao Suisui, "Is Suisui this big now?"

Xu Yue'e continued watching TV and ignored her.

"Yes, she's nine months old." Chen Guilan came over holding Xiao Suisui. Xiao Suisui didn't recognize Wang Yunying and hid behind Chen Guilan.

The nine-month-old little Suisui's eyebrows and eyes have gradually grown, she has thick eyebrows and big eyes, is fair and plump, has dimples when she smiles, and wears a pink gauze dress, just like a doll.

"This child is quite good-looking." Wang Yunying didn't plan to hug her. She touched her little face and walked away. She strolled back and forth in the room, sat on the sofa and said to Chen Guilan, "I thought we had finished the decoration quite quickly. I didn't expect you to move in already."

"We bought a model apartment," Chen Guilan said truthfully. "The developer had already renovated it when we bought it."

"There's such a thing!" Wang Yunying looked at Chen Guichang in surprise, "How come we didn't know about this?"

"I do know that they only installed the first floor." Chen Guichang pointed outside. "I heard that the building opposite has two first floors installed. They should be the same as Guilan's."

"You are so lucky." Wang Yunying was very jealous after hearing this. They bought a house, renovated it, and owed thousands of dollars in debt, but they actually bought a renovated house.

Chen Guilan said nothing, asked them to sit down, gave Xiao Suisui to Chen Juan, and went into the kitchen to boil water and make tea.

Chen Juan knew they had something to say, so she took Xiao Suisui into the bedroom.

Wang Yunying then took another look at the decoration of the living room. If it was decorated by the developer, it would be acceptable. Naturally, it would be as simple as possible.

The tea is brewed.

Chen Guilan sat next to Xu Yue'e, while Wang Yunying and Chen Guichang sat together.

Chen Guisheng took a stool and sat across from the four of them. He took a sip of water and asked Chen Guichang directly, "Brother, while everyone is here, let's talk about moving the graves. Guilan and I suggest we don't move them."

"You don't understand. I asked someone to look at it. It's truly a Feng Shui treasured site." Chen Guichang waved his hand and said firmly, "They said that if we move our father's grave there, we'll have a great family figure in the future."

"How big a figure is he?" Xu Yue'e suddenly asked.

"Of course she's a very powerful person." Chen Guichang was reluctant to talk to this crazy sister-in-law. "I don't tell you women about these things."

"Uncle, your eldest brother is doing this for the good of our family," Wang Yunying echoed. "Our two families can just pay for the cemetery plot. Chen Guilan is a daughter, so she doesn't have to pay for the plot."

"Brother, the question of money is a matter for another time," Chen Guisheng asked. "What if we don't become a big shot?"

"How do you know I can't get out?" Chen Guichang was a little angry. "I'm doing this for the good of our family."

"You're doing this for your family, right?" Xu Yue'e sat up straight and looked at Chen Guichang seriously. "It's not us who bought the cemetery, so why should we pay for it?"

"You don't want to pay because you don't have a son, do you?" Wang Yunying was unhappy. Looking at Xu Yue'e's blue plaid jacket, she felt that she looked even more rustic. She said disdainfully, "Anyway, the old man is from both families, so we should each pay half."

"I told you, it's not about money." Chen Guisheng was annoyed by Wang Yunying's words and couldn't help but speak louder. "It's not that I don't have a son. It's my son who's missing and hasn't come back yet. If he really could become a big shot, I'd be willing to pay any amount. I just don't agree to move the grave now."

"Guisheng, we haven't even moved the graves yet, and you're already saying you're not a big shot. That's not how you talk." Chen Guichang looked at Chen Guisheng's dirty trouser legs with disdain and said sternly, "I've been looking at this piece of land for a long time and even went to ask the village. I'm only telling you this because they agreed."

"Our father lived in the village his whole life. When he was alive, he worked so hard for us. Now, for the sake of our descendants, he has to be buried in a foreign land, becoming a wandering ghost!" Chen Guisheng said this with anger. "Brother, we can't do this. If the grave is really moved, how can you sleep well at night?"

"I told you it's a Feng Shui treasure land, so how did it become a wandering ghost?" Chen Guichang became increasingly agitated, nearly slamming the table. "You mean you're filial and I'm not?"

"If you were filial, you wouldn't do this." Xu Yue'e said, "If this was truly a Feng Shui treasure land, there would be no place for you. It would have been taken by someone else long ago."

“…” Chen Guichang was furious.

"Yu'e, we women should stay out of men's affairs." Wang Yunying looked at Xu Yue'e with displeasure. Why would a lunatic get involved in these matters?

"Didn't you just say that?" Xu Yue'e glanced at Wang Yunying. "If you can say it, I can say it too."

"Yue'e, you are such an unforgiving person..." Wang Yunying didn't know what to say.

"Brother, I don't agree to relocating the grave either," Chen Guilan finally said. "Our father has lived in the village his entire life, and even after his death he was with the villagers. If you suddenly move him somewhere else, even if he's still alive, he wouldn't agree."

That's her dad too.

She has a say.

"That's right. Whether or not a family has produced a prominent figure has nothing to do with the location of the grave." Chen Guisheng didn't want to argue with Chen Guichang any further and said directly, "Anyway, Guilan and I don't agree. Don't move the grave."

"If you don't let me move, I won't move." Chen Guichang looked at Chen Guisheng and said impatiently, "Anyway, I've made up my mind. If you don't take the money, I'll take it myself."

Then he turned to Chen Guilan, "Guilan, this has nothing to do with you. I'm just discussing this with your second brother. Let's discuss whether to move or not."

Among the three siblings, if two of them disagreed, it would seem that he was being arbitrary.

If the two brothers had different opinions, that would be a different matter.

"Brother, how can this have nothing to do with me?" Chen Guilan was different now. She also wanted to make her own voice heard. "Your father is also my father. I don't want my father to be buried in a strange place."

"I knew I couldn't convince you." Chen Guichang stood up and walked out. When he reached the door, he stopped and said, "If you don't agree, then don't agree. Dad in heaven will agree."

"Then go ask your father if he really agrees." Xu Yue'e said to his back.

Chen Guichang almost fainted from anger.

A madman is a madman!
