The old man didn't come back until the middle of the night.
In order to protect this younger sister, the old couple used up all their lifelong connections.
In the end, he even got himself involved.
But it's no use. The law is unforgiving. Those who do wrong must pay the price for their actions.
The old couple was so anxious that they couldn't eat. They lay on the sofa with cold bodies, and didn't move for a long time.
Zhao Wei made two cups of steaming hot fragrant tea and handed them over without saying much.
As for Zhao Yong, he had already been sent to bed by him.
This was not something an old farmer like him could worry about. Rather than being foolish and making the old couple angry, it would be better for him to stay away from them.
After all, the two were old, and after taking a while, they sat up and drank the hot tea, which was no longer very hot.
"Grandpa, grandma, do you want to eat? Man is made of iron and rice is made of steel. Eat your fill and then rest!"
There were several dishes being kept warm on the iron stove that was burning brightly.
He opened the bamboo curtain and saw three dishes and a soup. The aroma was so fragrant that it aroused the appetite of the old couple.
The old man called his wife, "Hey... old lady, let's eat together. Before we rescue our little sister, we must take good care of our bodies and not fall down!"
The old lady and the old man are a truly loving couple. They have lived together for many years and they do things in perfect harmony.
Seeing the two of them start to eat, Zhao Wei did not bother them too much. He just sat under the desk lamp and read a newspaper.
The newspapers of this year are quite interesting, and you can read a lot of interesting things in them.
He knew that these old things would be kept in the future and people would even spend money to collect them, which was also a nostalgia of an era.
After the two elders finished their meal quietly, they actually felt that they had enjoyed it very much.
"Zhao Wei, you cooked this meal again, right?"
Zhao Wei thought the old couple would praise his cooking, so he nodded proudly: "Grandpa, I cooked it. If you like it, I will cook it for you often in the future!"
"Nonsense!" The old man suddenly got angry. "You are a grown man, but you spend your days doing nothing but thinking about these trivial matters. A gentleman should stay away from the kitchen. Haven't you learned this?"
Zhao Wei's good mood disappeared in an instant.
Well, his kindness has been in vain. The old man is really hard to please.
"Master, Aunt Hong is sick. If I don't do it, do you plan to starve?"
"Besides, not everyone has the ability to be like you, with food and clothes provided for them. I am just a farmer, and I have to cook for myself every day. I can only think about how not to starve to death, and this has already exhausted all my energy."
"If you don't like it, there's nothing I can do."
If nothing unexpected happens, this will be the last time I cook for the old man. If he wants to eat again in the future, he can just dream on.
Zhao Wei was feeling resentful in his heart. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but add a few more words.
"In today's environment, you should get out of this family compound and take a good look at the lives of ordinary people. Then you will realize how inappropriate it is to say that a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen."
Don't think that just because you have been in a high position for a few years you can look down on others with a condescending attitude.
Of course, he didn't say the last sentence out loud, he only dared to complain in his heart, otherwise, the old man would be so angry that he would ascend to heaven.
The old man was so angry that he was about to have a heart attack. He pointed his finger at him and said, "You...you...you unfilial son, is this how you talk to grandpa?"
He pressed his chest tightly to prevent himself from leaning forward.
Looks pretty pissed off.
The old lady's originally gentle and kind expression could no longer be contained and she started to yell at Zhao Wei.
"Zhao Wei, you are such a young man who has no respect for your elders. Are you going to piss your grandfather off to death?"
Zhao Wei said calmly, "Oh, I won't take the blame for this. I'm not angry to death. Please don't get excited. It's just a small matter. What's there to be angry about?"
He couldn't afford it if anything went wrong.
Zhao Wei was too lazy to waste time talking to them, so he stood up and said solemnly, "Tomorrow is my mother's 48th birthday, and I have to take my father back to reunite with her. I need to tell you guys about this first!"
"As for you two elders, you probably don't have the mood to get involved in this kind of thing, so I won't bother you any more."
"It's late at night, let's not make a scene here, or the neighbors will hear us and laugh at us. Let's all go back to our rooms and get some rest!"
Zhao Wei returned to his room first and had no intention of continuing to fight with the two elders.
But it was this kind of casual and willful behavior that made the old man very angry.
"Ha... what a bastard, the older one is useless and the younger one is also so reckless, it makes me so angry..."
He kept cursing there, and the old lady kept staring at him, which made him angry, so he gave her a fierce look.
"What are you looking at? What sin did I commit to give birth to such a thing!"
"Why don't you reflect on yourself? Since you recognized this son, so many bad things have happened to our family."
The old man was still thinking about it in his mind. First, something happened to Zhao Nan, but it was quickly settled. It was just a false alarm.
The girl behind him got into trouble and it seems that she can't be rescued. He is already at this age, and it is hard to say whether he will be able to see this girl again in the future.
Then he heard the old woman grabbing him with some excitement.
"Comrade Lao Zhao, please stop nagging. Feel your heart. Does it feel much better than before?"
Well……
The old man's train of thought was interrupted. He touched his heart in disbelief and said, "Although I still feel a little stuffy, it's not as painful as before. Could it be that my illness has healed on its own?"
"That's great, Lao Zhao. You don't have to worry about your health anymore, and you've gotten rid of a big trouble!"
The old couple stayed there happily for a while and had long forgotten their anger towards Zhao Wei.
Zhao Wei leaned against the door and shook his head helplessly.
It's not that easy to get well. The last time I asked the master to help, I wanted to relieve the stubborn illness of the two of them.
But unfortunately, they were not welcomed, so I could only prescribe some medicine privately and put corresponding medicines in the water they drank and their food.
But now it seems that the master is so awesome, he kind of misses this guy, alas...
In this world, the Master is the only one who loves him the most, not only with small love, but also with great love!
Zhao Wei returned to the room disappointed and slept next to Zhao Yong.
It was the first time in such a long time that the father and son were so close to each other, and the deafening snoring did not even seem that noisy.
Zhao Wei slept soundly in this peaceful and tranquil environment.
