Chapter 143 The conflict intensifies!
The weather is great today. Although it's cloudy, there's no feeling of oppression. The occasional cool breeze makes it very comfortable.
Only in weather like this would Yan's mother choose to take Yan's father for a walk in the neighborhood to relax.
After all, he has difficulty moving around. Other seasons are fine, but summer is the hardest to endure.
Even with the best care, he sometimes gets heat rash on his body from the heat.
At 2:30, nap time was over.
The small square in the community is practically an activity center for the elderly.
Some were exercising, some were playing cards, and a few were taking care of their children.
Downstairs, Old Ma was watching others play chess with reluctance, while taking care of his grandson.
The grandson, in a panic, sat on the ground and cried loudly, making Yan's father sigh.
Because of illness and the need to take medication year-round, this person, who is not even fifty years old, looks as old as almost seventy.
A thin body, gray hair, and wrinkles of old age, but his back was still straight.
That's just like his personality.
Years of inactivity have caused his legs to atrophy significantly, which is visible even when he is wearing pants. Therefore, he always covers his legs with a blanket all year round.
It felt as if what I was covering myself with wasn't a blanket, but my dignity.
A dignity like that of a normal person.
Hearing his sigh, Yan's mother couldn't help but ask with concern, "What's wrong? You finally get to go out, why are you sighing like that?"
I didn't make him angry today.
Yan's father then looked at the little grandson behind Old Ma, who was tugging at his clothes and crying loudly.
With a look of exasperation, he said, "Look at this child, who loves his grandfather so much, yet the grandfather doesn't take good care of his grandson; he's only focused on chess!"
Becoming a grandfather seems to be Yan's only expectation now.
However, with the end of Yan Li and Xiao Ran's marriage, her expectations were dashed.
Although he didn't say it, he was still sad for a long time and hasn't recovered yet.
If I could become a grandfather, I would have no regrets in this life.
Upon hearing this, Yan's mother, who was standing behind him and pushing his wheelchair, looked at Old Ma and couldn't help but sigh.
"Don't think about it. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings."
I also want a grandson, but some things can't be rushed.
What's giving her the biggest headache right now is the relationship between Yan Xici and Yan Li.
What grandson or granddaughter? That's something to worry about after the family is at peace.
She pushed Yan's father toward the chess stall, pondering how to bring up the matter between Yan Xici and Xiao Ran with her husband as they walked toward it.
The chess stall is the liveliest place in the area!
There are many stone tables in that area.
Under the shade of rows of trees, there were two chess tables and two poker tables, a very pleasant scene.
Right now, the older women are playing cards and gossiping at the same time.
"By the way, I heard my son say today that there was a guy who married a woman who was very good at making money, but after a few years, he fell for her younger sister. As soon as he divorced the older sister, he got together with the younger sister, which almost made the older sister furious!"
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged woman opposite was taken aback. "Really? These parents are really unlucky to have two daughters like this. They're bound to be driven crazy!"
Upon hearing this, Yan's mother's heart skipped a beat.
Even their steps involuntarily stopped.
A pair of eyes instinctively looked towards the person who spoke.
It's Sister Li who lives on the floor behind.
But why does she talk about it so much like it's her own family matter?
The older woman across from her continued, "Who says otherwise? This youngest daughter is really something. She knows he's her brother-in-law, yet she still wants to be with him. Isn't she deliberately trying to embarrass her sister? If she were my sister, I would break her legs."
After saying that, he threw down the one-to-five he was holding.
Seeing the old lady's stubborn expression, the old man next to her couldn't help but laugh.
He said leisurely, "In my opinion, this is a man's skill!"
"As the saying goes, it's only natural for a brother-in-law to flirt with his sister-in-law! The sister-in-law is like half of the brother-in-law's butt; if you don't care, you might as well; if you don't touch her, you might as well touch her!"
This is not just idle talk; the idea of sisters sharing a husband has been a frequently discussed topic, both in ancient and modern times.
The older woman next to her threw out the pair of 8s she was holding.
Then he saw the old man's disdainful expression and said, "Pah! You talk a good game, but why don't you try messing with your sister-in-law? See if your wife will skin you alive!"
I'm getting old, and I'm still acting so irresponsibly!
Thank goodness it wasn't my old man, otherwise I would have definitely challenged him to a fight!
Several people were discussing it enthusiastically.
Hearing this, Yan's mother felt a chill run down her spine!
People these days are so gossipy!
Young people are fine, but when older people start gossiping, it's really a nightmare.
Within two days, even the neighboring community knew about it!
Not only did she hear these words, but Yan's father also heard them.
Seeing that she didn't understand, he couldn't help but tilt his head and glance at his wife.
"Why aren't you leaving? What are you listening to here?"
He has never been fond of gossip; he not only doesn't like to talk about it, but he also doesn't like to listen to it!
I always feel that people gossip about this family and that family, talking about this and that, it's too much of a dispute.
Instead of wasting their time gossiping about such immoral things, they should go home and teach their grandchildren to read the Three Character Classic a couple more times!
Upon hearing this, Yan's mother hurriedly pushed the handlebars of her wheelchair and walked towards the chess stall.
