Chapter 206: Is it time to give out the New Year's gift money?
Li Guifen then noticed that they were coming, and her hand, which was wiping the old man's mouth, suddenly became lighter.
"Hey, Runde is here?"
He put down the medicine bowl in his hand, stood up and walked over.
Zhou Runde nodded and stood beside the bed.
"Dad, Happy New Year! I've brought Xiu'e, Tingyue, and Tingyue's wife to visit you!"
When Mr. Zhou heard his voice, his cloudy eyes moved. When he saw that it was really him, he obviously became more energetic.
He even struggled to sit up.
Li Guifen was so angry that she muttered, "You'd better lie down quickly. What are you doing getting up? Don't you think it's troublesome enough?"
Before she could finish her words, she swallowed the words that were about to come out of her throat when she saw Zhou Runde's cold eyes.
Zhou Tingyue also stepped forward to help Old Man Zhou sit up.
"Grandpa, I'm back to see you!"
Mr. Zhou was visibly happier to see him.
"Yes... Tingyue, good... good boy... Grandpa, I haven't seen you for several years..."
Hearing him gasping for breath, Zhou Tingyue frowned immediately.
Shen Xiu'e also sensed something was wrong and turned to ask Li Guifen, "When did Dad become so seriously ill? He can hardly even speak?"
Li Guifen rolled her eyes.
"What's so serious? He's just hungry. You're not here to take care of him, so you don't know. Ever since your dad caught a cold and had a fever last time, he suddenly became paralyzed and couldn't get out of bed. He has to lie in bed all day, eat, drink, defecate and urinate in bed. If he's fed well, he'll poop several times a day. This room stinks, and no one can even enter!"
Hearing her words, Shen Xiu'e and Zhou Runde's faces suddenly turned dark.
Even Song Shiwei found it unbelievable.
Her idea is really weird. In order to clean up less, she won’t give the old man food?
As the saying goes, man is iron and rice is steel. If you don't eat for a meal, you will feel hungry.
The sicker a person is, the more nutritious food he or she should eat so that he or she can get better faster!
Not giving people food? Isn't that just wishing for them to die early?
Although Li Guifen didn't want to serve, Song Shiwei could understand, after all, she was not a good person.
But seeing Old Man Zhou's current state, her father-in-law must be feeling bad too.
Even though Mr. Zhou had indeed treated him badly when he was young, he was still his father after all.
When Mr. Zhou got sick, he probably remembered the kindness of Zhou Runde and his mother. He kept saying, "If only Juanzi were here, your mother loved you so much when you were little. When I went out to work, she would keep the house clean..."
Hearing him mention the woman who had died eight hundred years ago, Li Guifen felt so angry that her liver ached.
"Are you disliking me now? I, I disliking you! You old fool! You have no conscience......"
As a result, Zhou Tingyue glared at her and she quickly shut her mouth.
Song Shiwei also came forward with her four children to greet him.
"Hurry up and say hello to Grandpa!"
Zhou Cheng, Zhou Lin, Zhou Wei, and Xin Xin rushed forward to surround his bed and shouted "Hello, Grandpa!"
Grandpa Zhou had heard about Zhou Tingyue's story before, and to be honest, he had also sighed a few times. After all, he was his grandson, and the most promising one.
In his heart, it was impossible not to worry.
Now I see that the children are obedient and sensible, and my granddaughter-in-law is also a good person.
Especially this belly, which looked like it was about to give birth. He was even happier in his heart, because his eldest grandson would have someone to carry on the legacy in the future!
I felt a lot more relieved immediately.
When people reach the final moment, they can let go of everything.
Li Guifen treated him well back then, and he was also good-looking, but she did not educate her children well. The two sons she gave birth to later on were more troublesome than the last.
The grandchildren being taught today are even worse than the children adopted by Zhou Tingyue. They only know how to snatch food all day long and imitate their parents. They are so unfilial!
One time, he was so hungry that he finally climbed onto the table and took an apple to eat. However, the eldest grandson of the third brother saw him, not only snatched the apple from him, but also kicked him and called him an old man.
He was already exhausted, and he walked over slowly, holding on to the table.
He pushed me so hard that I fell backwards.
In an instant, his eyes turned red. He lay on the ground, looking at the bright sunshine outside the window and listening to the laughter of her family, but his heart was filled with sadness.
I also miss his eldest son very much!
His most capable son should have been the pride of their Zhou family, but he was blinded by his own greed and drove him out of the house.
The more he thought about it, the more upset he felt, and finally he burst into tears.
So, he asked someone to tell Zhou Runde that he missed him and wanted him to come back.
Zhou Runde did come and brought a lot of good stuff with him, but in the end they all went into the mouths of Li Guifen and the others.
Just let him go in. He will be happier than anything else to see his son, grandson and granddaughter-in-law!
At this time, Xiao Zhang and Xiao Sun also came in carrying things.
Li Guifen's eyes lit up when she saw it!
They are all good things. Look at that box of Moutai and two cans of Dahongpao. These are Mr. Zhou Ziping’s favorite things in his daily life.
This kid Zhou Runde really loves his father!
It is also possible that he is a high-ranking official with a lot of money, so he doesn't care about these pressures at all!
Look at the can of maltose, canned fruit, a big pork leg, and a lot more. I can't tell what they are.
But they are definitely good things!
Li Guifen rubbed her hands excitedly.
I hope we can have another prosperous new year this year!
Zhou Runde naturally saw her expression. He glanced at her coldly and asked Zhou Tingyue to move the box of Moutai liquor and two cans of Dahongpao to the bed.
"Dad, I know you usually like these little things, like a little wine and some tea, so I brought this especially for you! They are all the best, come back and try them!"
Seeing those things, Mr. Zhou's eyes became red again.
It's his eldest son who still cares about him! !
At this time, Zhou Liang, Zhou Dazhuang and Zhou Erhong came over with their wives and children.
As soon as I saw the table full of gifts, I was immediately overjoyed!
He pushed his son and daughter forward.
"Hurry up and kowtow to Grandpa and Grandma and say Happy New Year!"
The three children took two steps forward and knelt down in unison in front of Zhou Runde and Shen Xiu'e.
"Happy New Year, Grandpa and Grandma!!"
Seeing this scene, Shen Xiu'e couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Coincidentally, Lu Yuhua and Wang Cuizhi also lifted the curtain and prepared to come over to watch the show.
"Hey, you kids, why are you so eager to kowtow to your grandpa and grandma to ask for New Year's money? Do you want to take the money and go out to buy candy with the kids next door?"
These words were definitely meant to deliberately remind Zhou Runde and Shen Xiu'e that the child has already knelt down and kowtowed to you, so isn't it time to give him some New Year's money?
