News of Commander Yang's situation spread, because after he was discharged from the hospital, half of his body was not functioning properly.
Comrade Wu shamelessly called Cao Wenze, hoping he could come and give Commander Yang acupuncture. Even if it couldn't restore him to normal, it could improve his condition and make his life much more convenient in the future.
Unfortunately, Cao Wenze was on a mission and we couldn't contact him at all.
When it snowed, Commander Yang completed his retirement procedures and moved into the retirement home.
Yang's second son moved into the neighboring family compound with his wife and children, and was allocated a two-bedroom apartment. Logically, his rank wasn't high enough to qualify for a two-bedroom apartment. However, given the severity of Commander Yang's retirement, there was some compensation to be given.
When Gu Ye returned and learned about this, he felt relieved and, unusually, he drank some wine, even getting a little tipsy.
“Honey, Bonnie, do you think God sees that I’m living too happily, so He doesn’t want me to be too carefree and isn’t on my side? After Wenze came back, he had a good laugh on the beach, and then he cried.”
Gu Ye put his arm around Bao Ni and muttered to himself.
Bonnie knew that Gu Ye disliked Gu Bei and the others, but she couldn't bring herself to hate them. The real culprit was Gu Xiangdong, followed by Xu Fang; their child was unlucky to have such parents.
"Honey, do you know, I've known since I was little that Gu Xiangdong is a selfish person. He doesn't actually love anyone, he only loves himself. My mom sees this very clearly, but she hasn't broken ties with us just because of us children."
However, Xu Fang couldn't see the bigger picture and kept thinking about giving Gu Xiangdong a son to solidify her position. In the end, she gave birth to a son, but didn't raise him well, and he died young. Her daughter neglected her and resented her deeply. This was her greatest retribution.
But what retribution did Gu Xiangdong receive? Gu Bei died, and he, a white-haired man, buryed his black-haired son? Did he care? He didn't care. He had a retirement pension. Let alone a good-for-nothing son who always embarrassed him, even if an excellent son died, he would just sigh and say that he no longer had anything to brag about.
So I say God isn't so kind to me. Look how well I married—a beautiful and capable wife, and how well I raised my children, Liu Jiu and San Qi, are so outstanding! I've got all the good things, so God didn't help me with anything else.
Gu Ye had drunk a bit too much and blurted out all the things he had been keeping to himself.
"It's not that retribution won't come, it's just that the time hasn't arrived yet. Don't worry, we'll all outlive Gu Xiangdong and we'll see his retribution eventually."
"Is it possible? Can we make him suffer like Commander Yang did?"
"Yes, it will. It definitely will."
Gu Ye put his arm around his wife's waist and started whining again, like a child throwing a tantrum.
Bonnie gently coaxed Gu Ye. Her son had grown up too early, spending his childhood with his sick mother and missing out on many of the simple joys of childhood. He only showed his childlike side in front of her.
Unbeknownst to the couple, Sanqi stood thoughtfully outside the open door.
He had gone downstairs to get a drink of water, but his parents' bedroom door was ajar, and he could hear his father's whining voice coming from inside. He thought to himself, "His dad's here again, starting to whine again."
However, upon hearing what followed, he began to feel sorry for his father, for his father's resentment and anger.
He didn't even drink the Sanqi water before going straight upstairs.
How could Gu Xiangdong, his nominal grandfather, also suffer some "divine retribution"? Moreover, the degree of punishment must be controlled and not excessive. If he becomes paralyzed, his father and uncle cannot completely ignore him, especially his uncle, who does have political enemies.
Sanqi scribbled and drew in her notebook, making her own plans.
The next morning, Sanqi got up to do his morning exercise, and his parents' room was still quiet.
"Mom, I'm back with breakfast. Is Dad up yet?"
After finishing his morning exercise, Sanqi went to buy breakfast. He didn't dare reveal that he had seen something he shouldn't have yesterday, otherwise his father might kill his own son to silence him.
"Getting dressed, you'll be out in a bit. What did you buy?"
"Millet porridge, steamed buns, fried dough sticks, soy milk, tofu pudding, and chewy pancakes. I didn't know what you wanted to eat, but since these are all in one place, I bought a little bit of everything."
Sanqi was worried that her father had drunk alcohol yesterday and had an upset stomach, so she wanted him to drink some millet porridge to soothe his stomach.
His mother likes to eat fried dough sticks and drink soy milk, while he himself likes to eat tofu pudding.
“Okay, my Sanqi is so thoughtful, she’s taken care of everything. Your dad can have some millet porridge and steamed buns, it’s not greasy.”
"What do you mean not greasy?" Gu Ye asked, his head aching after washing up.
"Sanqi bought you millet porridge and steamed buns, and there are also some side dishes that Uncle sent over. They go perfectly with the millet porridge."
"Hmm, now that you mention it, I'm actually hungry."
"I'm telling you to drink without eating. If you do it again, I'll punish you."
Bonnie was genuinely angry. Gu Ye had a bad stomach; he didn't care when he was younger and was very unhealthy with his body. He was also frequently on missions, enduring harsh conditions, which had ruined his stomach.
"Wife, I was wrong. I won't do it again."
"Pfft, haha..."
Sanqi really couldn't hold back. His father, who was aloof and unapproachable in public, was like a completely different person in front of his mother.
Why are you still here?
Gu Ye was a little embarrassed. Perhaps he was still under the influence of alcohol, and he forgot that this was not their bedroom and there was an extra person next to them.
"Dad, just pretend I don't exist. I'll finish eating right away and then I'll leave."
Sanqi, a wise man knows when to yield; he should quickly back down, otherwise his father's joke won't be so funny.
"Stop being silly and eat quickly, it'll get cold soon."
Bonnie patted Gu Ye and glared at Sanqi. None of them were easy to deal with.
