Chapter 382 The Rough Man Suddenly Became Unhappy

The old man was stunned on the stone steps, secretly shocked by his grandson's wife's words. After a while, he said, "The Bai family is willing to sacrifice for the health of their eldest son."

"I heard that Bai Linyan was in the army with the commander, and they were both respected figures by everyone!"

Seeing the shock in the old man's eyes, Wang Ziru calmly lifted Commander Duan up high.

The three of them walked into the house, and Duan Laohe said, "Well, luckily you came here today. Please help me check on Duan Yanzhi. He has not been very well behaved these past few days. I just yelled at him to go back to his room and lie down. Go and tell him to take good care of himself..."

Wang Ziru made an "I understand" gesture, walked upstairs slowly, and came to the door of Commander Duan's room.

Standing at the door, she peeked in quietly, only to see the rough man lying shirtless on the bed, his muscular body tied with several white bandages, his tanned muscles full, as if he had gradually regained his vitality.

"Ahem!" She coughed deliberately.

Duan Yanzhi was holding the radio and adjusting the radio channel.

Suddenly, I heard someone coughing deliberately at the door. I frowned slightly and turned around to see a familiar face with a smile that appeared at the door out of nowhere.

"Why are you back?" The rough man showed a brilliant smile on his face for a second and put the radio in his hand aside.

Wang Ziru hugged the door frame and had no intention of going in. She said with a smile: "We passed by Kun City today and came to see you. How are you? You feel pretty good these days, don't you?"

"Passing by?!" Duan Yan straightened his chest and took a breath, then asked unhappily, "Where are you going? Passing by Kun City?"

Wang Ziru lay by the door, her almond-shaped eyes flickered slightly, and she pointed in a certain direction: "Go to Teng Chongbai's house and see a person who is said to be more pitiful than you..."

"More pitiful than me? Who?" Duan Yan's usual stern face froze, and he suddenly became unhappy.

"Uh, you know this guy too, Bai Linyan from the Bai family! I heard that he was shot and paralyzed five years ago, right? Yesterday, his third brother went to the special forces and insisted that I go to Tengchong Bai's house to help them confirm whether Bai Linyan's legs can still stand up."

The air froze slightly.

Duan Yanzhi was in a complicated mood for a moment. He glanced at the person at the door and asked, "Will Han Suijing accompany you to Tengchong?"

"He's so busy, how can he have time to hang out with me? If you find out that he doesn't work hard, you'll definitely scold him out of the beehive!"

"..." The rough man didn't say anything and there was no smile on his face.

Wang Ziru's eyes sparkled, and she noticed the coldness on the rough man's face. She paused and continued, "But Brother Tingzhang knows how to order people to do things. He asked Han Dixing to accompany me to Tengchong. This is also a face-saving thing for the Bai family!"

After a while.

Duan Yanzhi was amused, and his voice was nonchalant: "The Bai family is great! They even know how to keep an eye on the Duan family's every move. They must have heard that I was in a car accident..."

While they were talking, Han Dixing accompanied the old man upstairs and came to Duan Yanzhi's room.

The old man no longer had the previous surprise on his face. When he learned that Wang Ziru was going to Tengchong, he asked the aunt at home to wash a few apples and pears, dry them, and put them in a net bag for them to take with them on the road to quench their thirst.

By the way, the old man glanced at the bandages on his eldest grandson and said, "Zi Ru, you happened to be back today, so please help Duan Yanzhi change his bandages. The bandages on his body are all black."

"Okay! Although the bandage only serves to fix the scar, it is easier to change it frequently and it won't cause bacterial infection."

Wang Ziru said this and turned to go to the bathroom, washed her hands, and returned to the room quickly.

I took out a brand new roll of bandages and disinfectant alcohol from the drawer of the bedside table.

Then he told the rough man to lift his body, and together with Han Dixing, he untied several bandages on his body and checked the scar. "It has healed well, there is no redness or swelling, but Commander, you must not use force."

Old Duan stood in front of the bed with his hands behind his back. He snorted coldly and said unhappily, "Hmph, stop talking! He was doing well in the first two days after he was discharged from the hospital. But these past few days, he can't stay in the house at all. He gets up early in the morning and goes downstairs to play in the yard outside."

"It's okay to take a moderate walk, but don't go downstairs for too long each time. A quarter of an hour is enough." Wang Ziru dipped the cotton swab in disinfectant alcohol and carefully cleaned the area around the scar.

Then he put on a new bandage.

The rough man on the bed, with a complex feeling of guilt, nervousness, and joy, cooperated with her to tie the bandage and tied a small knot under his ribs.

He looked at her with interest, and hummed righteously, "I'm about to get moldy, so I must go out for a walk."

As he said this, he looked at Han Dixing and said, "We have soda at home. Take a few bottles with you in case you get thirsty on the road."

Han Dixing cast his clear eyes towards his second sister-in-law standing on the other side: "Second sister-in-law, do you like to drink soda?"

"Well, it's okay. You can take a few bottles with you." Wang Ziru buried her face and quickly picked up the gauze and alcohol and put them back into the drawer to avoid dust.

She went out to wash her hands again, and when she came back, she saw the rough man who had shaved his beard at some point. His face was trimmed and his jawline was smooth. He looked relaxed. He tilted his head and glanced at her: "There's nothing to do here. If you're in a hurry, just leave."

Wang Ziru nodded slightly, smiling brightly: "I'll come to see you again when I come back tomorrow."

As she led her grandfather out, she casually said, "Grandpa, is there any local specialty in Tengchong? I'll buy some and bring them back to you."

"Teng Chong has medicine!" The man in the room smiled faintly.

The old man was a little reluctant to see his grandson's wife leave. Before she had time to sit down and have a cup of tea, she had to leave again.

After sending them out of the courtyard gate, they saw the Bai family's car parked on the side of the road not far ahead.

Bai Pinheng was feeling very nervous. He thought that Wang Ziru would be invited to stay for dinner at Duan's house. His neck was sore from shaking. Finally, he saw Mr. Duan seeing off the two guests.

He hurriedly got into the car to avoid it.

After all, Mr. Duan is a seasoned businessman who has been active in the West for decades. Although he no longer cares about the Duan family's business, he still has a smart mind and knows that it is impossible for the Bai family and the Duan family to have any dealings.

So I just stood at the gate of the yard, waved goodbye to my grandson's wife, and watched them get in the car and leave.

At noon, Duan Suili returned home from the factory.

Duan Yanzhi also came downstairs to have dinner together. During the meal, Old Duan mentioned the incident of Wang Ziru visiting the Duan family.

"What are Zi Ru and Sui Jing doing back in Kun City today? Didn't the Han family go to the special forces yesterday?" Duan Sui Li glanced at his eldest nephew beside him, his deep eyes filled with scrutiny.

Duan Yanzhi raised his head and sneered with an ambiguous tone, then said slowly, "She went to Tengchong to treat Bai Linyan's illness. She passed by Duan's house and came in to take a look. As a result, you were not at home, so she left disappointed."

"Can you speak? When did she come to see me at the Duan family?!"

Duan Suili could clearly hear the sour meaning in his nephew's words. It was obvious that he was unhappy, but he insisted on putting the blame on his uncle!

"You two should calm down and talk about something serious."

Then, Mr. Duan briefly told his younger son what Wang Ziru had told him.

Finally, he added, "Just wait and see, there is indeed coal in Baiteng Town! Since the Bai family has promised to give 30% of the shares to the grandson's wife, she must be given it."

Duan Yanzhi automatically ignored his uncle's expression and asked, "Is there really coal in Baiteng Town? Then the Bai family has found a treasure. It's a border town, so it's not impossible to sell it to the other side of the mountain, right, old man?"

Originally, Duan Suili had heard some rumors a long time ago.

But I didn’t expect that the Bai family would actually involve Wang Ziru.

Even if he wanted to do something now, he couldn't do it easily!

"What are you going to do?" Duan Yanzhi looked like a bystander and lifted his curtain nonchalantly. "If you ask me, you should ask someone to contact the Bai family. Since the coal is in Baiteng Town, the Duan family and the Bai family should work together to mine it!"

"Well! Duan Yanzhi's reminder is very timely. Don't let the Zhou family get wind of it, or our Duan family will be in trouble." Old Duan nodded slightly and said.

Having said this, the grandfather and grandson both looked at Duan Suili.

The atmosphere in the restaurant was tense.

Duan Suili's handsome eyebrows were frowned sternly. He said nothing, but glanced sideways at the aunt who was coming over with the soup behind him.

Auntie took the soup bowl, stepped forward, and said respectfully, "Master Jiu, from today on, I will follow the recipe written by Comrade Ziru and make a variety of vegetable and lean meat soup for the commander."

Duan Suili, who had been silent the whole time, snorted, "Take good care of Duan Yanzhi and give him more nutritious food. The Duan family doesn't lack this kind of food."

A few days ago, Duan Yanzhi drank meat soup every day and was tired of it.

So I asked my aunt to make vegetarian soups such as loofah soup and cucumber soup for him for several days in a row.

Last night, Duan Suili returned home and had dinner with his old father. When he saw a bowl of bland vegetarian soup on the table, he immediately told his aunt: "Why is it still vegetarian? Find ways to get more meat for Duan Yanzhi."

On the other hand, Bai Pinheng's car did not return to Fenghuang Town until the evening.

The Bai family finally saw the girl they had been dreaming about, and the whole family was excited and hurried to arrange dinner.

"It's still early, take me to see your elder brother first." Wang Ziru came a long way to the Bai family in Tengchong, not just to eat, drink and have fun, but she took the initiative to urge Bai Pinheng.

The old couple of the Bai family were naturally happy to see Han Suijing's daughter-in-law so anxious.

However, they are family members and know their son's schedule. The boy might be taking a bath at this time. It is not convenient to meet outsiders.

So, without waiting for the third son to nod, Mr. Bai smiled and said, "Comrade Ziru, you don't know yet, my eldest son lives in the back yard. It's getting late at this time today, and he may be taking a bath. In my opinion, you should rest tonight and go to see him tomorrow morning?"

"He doesn't need to take a whole night to take a shower! Take me to see him now. It's just right that he doesn't need to put on trousers after taking a shower. I can check his injured leg more clearly." Wang Ziru waved her hand, stood up and went to the backyard of the Bai family.

Bai Pinheng smiled helplessly.

Along the way, the two of them ate, drank, talked and laughed.

Not only was he worried about whether his elder brother would meet people outside, he was also worried about the coal factory in Baiteng Town.

He was not as jealous of his elder brother's rules as his old father was. He led Wang Ziru to a quiet courtyard at the back of the Bai family mansion.

"Second sister-in-law, let me go with you." Han Dixing followed them out of the main living room, caught up with his sister-in-law and said.

Wang Ziru was stunned. "You don't have to follow me. Just walk around and wait for me. Didn't you hear them say that Bai Linyan usually doesn't see outsiders? It's understandable that a man who was once so brilliant has become like this. He doesn't like to see outsiders."

"Okay then." Han Dixing would not make things difficult for the Bai family, so he stopped outside the house.

This was also his first time in Tengchong. The Bai family's house here was beautifully built, antique, and had a strong ethnic flavor. It was well worth a visit.

Mr. Bai followed out of the main hall and walked with Han Di through the mansion with many layers of buildings. "Young man, don't worry. They will come out soon."
