"Has my second brother not returned yet? Did he go to see his wife?"
"I think so. Otherwise, we wouldn't know if we could find them since they haven't come back yet."
"Second sister-in-law went too far that day. Mother has been good to them all these years, but now she was so angry with her that she fainted and left out of fear."
"Let's check on Mother first. The doctor from our village has come and said she'll wake up soon."
"Old woman, old woman, you're awake! Are you feeling any better?"
Grandpa Guo felt a pang of sadness looking at his wife lying weakly on the kang (a heated brick bed).
At this advanced age, I still have to suffer like this.
"I'm awake. What happened to me? Why are all the children here?"
"You forgot, you had a fight with your second son's family and you fainted from anger."
"Don't make things difficult for the old man. After all, she is Da Bao's mother and has given us three granddaughters."
Guo Erge heard his mother's words as soon as he entered the door, and he felt terrible. It was all his fault.
It's only come to this point that even if her mother wakes up, it's still for her own good.
But when her own mother fainted, she went home without a second thought.
How can this not be disheartening? For so many years, I've always felt that life was hard, so no matter what she did, I spoiled her.
I never expected it to turn out this way. I guess I'll just have to swallow my bitterness.
"Old woman, you're still thinking of her? You have no idea that after you fainted, she got scared and left right away."
"Just lie down and don't think about anything. As for the children, none of us should worry about them."
"Whoever is lucky enough to live a good life, and whoever doesn't have the ability, even if they eat coarse food, we can't control them."
Grandpa Guo had been thinking that his third son was doing quite well.
Jianjun is a filial son; if he helps them out a bit, things will be much better for the family.
But today's events have made Grandpa Guo realize that no matter how good you are to someone, it won't change the fact that they have no conscience.
If you make one mistake that displeases her, all your previous efforts will have been in vain.
They wouldn't appreciate it, and Grandpa Guo had come to terms with it and no longer planned to get involved in the children's affairs.
"Father, it's my fault. I didn't manage this family well. Mother, I was wrong."
Guo Erge felt guilty and knelt down, deeply saddened.
They made their parents bear the consequences of their own mistakes.
"Second son, Mom is fine. I feel like I can still see your children grow up and start their own families. Don't be so sentimental."
"Mother, I'm sorry. Even if she comes back this time, I don't plan to be with her."
"Alright, second son, your mother just woke up not long ago. We can talk about it later."
"We really owe you all this. Your mother and I are so old and we still have to put up with this."
Jianjun and Brother Guo didn't say anything. Although they didn't know the cause and effect of this matter, they were sure it was Second Brother's family's fault.
“Let’s go, let your mother rest. Let’s all go to the east room. This room is full of people, your mother can’t rest well.”
"Dabao, tell your third uncle what happened today and why your grandma fainted."
Guo Dabao, now that he's older, knows that this whole thing is his mother's fault, and he's worried that he'll finish speaking.
Will his mother ever come back? Will he ever have a mother again? This is the first time he's ever seen his father, who has always doted on him since he was a child, lose his temper like this.
For a moment, Guo Dabao hesitated. On one side was his grandmother, who had treated him very well since he was a child, and on the other was his mother.
He didn't know how to start the conversation; everything he said would be wrong.
