Ye Xiaozhen watched them walk away before she whispered to Xie Lin An, "Do you really want Grandpa to go with us?"
Xie Linan said: "Why should I object? The key to this matter is not me, but Grandpa himself. I will not make the decision for you. If you are willing, I will agree. If you are not willing, I will not let you take Grandpa away."
Ye Xiaozhen: "Grandpa must be suffering if he follows us. He doesn't even have a place to live. And Grandpa is not the same as he was a few years ago. He is in poor health now. We have to keep an eye on him and send him to the hospital if we find anything wrong."
Xie Linan nodded and said, "I know all of this. Grandpa may not be willing to go with us."
"What if he is willing? Grandpa still has some old-fashioned ideas. He thinks that if you have a son, you should not let your grandson take care of you in your old age."
Xie Linan sneered and said calmly: "If you are willing, then so be it. It's a good opportunity for us to see that providing for the elderly is not as simple as you say."
When they returned, Xie Zhili and Xie Zhiguo were coaxing the old man.
The two first apologized, saying that they had neglected their nephews and nieces over the years because they had been taking care of their own small family. They were really sorry for them, and even more sorry for their deceased brother.
I have already missed the opportunity to help my nephews, and I will not miss the opportunity to support my father in his old age.
After much thought, they decided to take on the responsibility of supporting their old father.
Then we discussed and decided to give each family one month, starting with the second child.
If you agree, I will pick you up tomorrow.
The old man didn't agree immediately and kept waiting for Xie Lin An.
When Xie Linan came back, he asked, "Your second uncle and third uncle said that they would support me together with you in my old age, and they also said that you are willing, are you?"
Xie Linan said: "I am a junior, I don't express my opinions, I listen to my grandfather. If my grandfather agrees, I agree."
Lin Xinghua nodded, "Okay, I agree."
The whole audience burst into laughter.
There were not only our family but also many villagers gathered here.
One by one, they began to persuade Lin Xinghua, "Mr. Lin, think carefully. Your two sons have ignored you for so many years and have not shown any love for you, a disabled person with three children. Now they suddenly say they will support you in your old age. Who knows what bad things they are up to."
"Hey, don't be stupid. Just suffer a little, don't implicate Lin An and the other three brothers."
Thinking back to several years ago, Xie Linan was still the unlucky star in Xiaoxigou Village and a man who killed his wife.
The villagers all felt it was unlucky when they saw it.
Over the years, they have made money, but they have not forgotten the villagers.
For example, in Ye Xiaozhen's restaurant, villagers are given priority in the supply of vegetables, fish and meat.
In this era, farmers have few opportunities to make money.
They grow vegetables in large quantities in a systematic way, and every household raises a few pigs and a flock of chickens, ducks and geese, all of which are fortunate to have stable buyers.
Every household has increased their income because of Ye Xiaozhen.
Xie Linan paid for the road construction in the village.
The road to the village is very narrow, and there used to be only a small road for bicycles and motorcycles.
Now there is a cement road that can be crossed by cars, all thanks to Lin An for paying for its repair.
Although it's only two miles, it costs a lot of money.
In addition, Xie Linan also solved the employment problems of many men in the village.
Therefore, the reputation of our family in the village has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Whenever someone said something bad about our family, the villagers would stand up and speak for us.
Right now, they are worried about Xie Linan's family being at a disadvantage, so they are not afraid of offending Xie Zhiguo and Xie Zhili. They bluntly said that they suddenly wanted to support the old man and his son in his old age, which was not well.
Both families were so angry that they jumped up and down.
Li Mei said, "You gossipers, you didn't support us before, so you scolded us behind our backs. Now that we say we will support our old man, you say we are not well-off. So you have said everything about us, right?"
"Oh, you don't let others talk about it, but you do something bad? Look at what you do."
"Well, you take Lin Laoguai to live with you in your old age, and make sure he's well. I'll take your last name."
"What does it have to do with you? Our family affairs are yours to discuss." After that, she looked at Lin Xinghua in a teasing manner and said, "Dad, it's all up to you as long as you agree."
A villager tried to persuade Lin Xinghua, but Lin Xinghua had already made up his mind and went with Lao Er's family.
Everyone was so angry that they felt itchy, and then they said they could go ahead, but when they turned around and suffered, they realized that the pot was made of iron.
Seeing that their family had reached a consensus, Ye Xiaozhen said nothing more.
Xie Li was a married granddaughter, and she had no say. Ye Xiaozhen could only complain: "Grandpa is really old and confused. We are so good to you, but you are still thinking about your good son."
Ye Xiaozhen whispered, "Grandpa may have other plans."
"Oh! Forget it. Since you have other plans, just go with it. But... the hospital said that we should go for a checkup after the New Year. What should I do?"
Ye Xiaozhen looked at Xie Linan and whispered, "Let's talk about it when we get home."
Xie Li nodded and said nothing more.
After paying New Year's greetings to their ancestors, everyone went home.
Xie Linan and Xie Zhiguo agreed to let them come to pick up the old man in the afternoon.
After returning home, the old man called Xie Linan into the house and talked for half an hour, and then started to pack clothes and leave with Xie Zhiguo in the afternoon.
Ye Xiaozhen came out from the kitchen while she was busy making lunch and called Xie Linan over. "Grandpa, what did you say?"
"Nothing, just say I've raised you, it's time for you to be taken care of, and I'm going to eat you once."
"Don't tell grandpa that you will go to Haicheng with us in the future."
"Hey, let me tell you, we can't leave for a while, so let you go. Humph, do you think it's easy to take care of your parents? Just wait and see, I'll see how long it will take you to regret it."
Hearing this, Ye Xiaozhen stopped trying to persuade him and just asked, "What about the physical examination?"
Xie Linan raised the corner of his mouth and revealed a wicked smile.
"Let them pick me up first. I'll go talk about the physical examination in a few days after they pick me up."
That afternoon, Lin Xinghua was picked up by Xie Zhiguo. Xie Linan followed and drove him to Xie Zhiguo's home.
Where can we, a family, live?
There was only a storage room that was cleared out for him to live in, and that storage room didn't even have a window.
These conditions are far better than the place Lin An arranged for us.
Seeing that there was not even a window in the room, Xie Linan frowned and said to Lin Xinghua, "Grandpa, if you don't regret it, I will take you back now."
Zhang Hui, who was laying the bed, stood up and looked at them.
Lin Xinghua was a little tired after climbing the stairs, so he sat down, waved his hand and said, "No need, I'll stay here first."
Hearing this, Xie Linan said nothing more, and only said to Xie Zhiguo: "Second Uncle, I'll leave first. I'll come to see Grandpa in a few days."
