Everyone got back into the car. Yan Xiaoqiang gave up his pickup truck seat to Dalong and asked him to lead the way. Dalong happily got into the car.
"Chenming, it's been so long! You have three kids now, that's wonderful!" Dalong showered Chenming with compliments as soon as he saw him.
"Uncle, how have you been these days?" Ye Chenming asked.
"Sigh, never mind, your uncle made a mistake and I regret it," Da Long said.
Ye Chenming glanced at Da Long strangely, but didn't respond. He felt that the mistake Da Long mentioned was related to Old Man Chen's matter.
Seeing that Ye Chenming didn't respond, Da Long quickly turned to Cuihua and said, "Cuihua, it was my little sister who misled me. She said that Bei Nan gave our father a million, so I wanted to ask him for some money to play with. I didn't expect him to get so angry."
Before Cuihua could speak, Yan Xiaonan asked, "How much money do you want to ask Grandpa for?"
Da Long was speechless and could only lower his head.
"Let me guess, you want two or three hundred thousand. If Grandpa doesn't agree, you'll get a few gamblers to set a trap. If the plan fails, you'll blame it on your little sister."
Da Long suddenly looked up at Yan Xiaonan, his eyes filled with fear and a hint of killing intent.
"What, did I hit the nail on the head? Looking at your eyes, you don't mean to kill me, do you?" Yan Xiaonan sneered.
With a screech of brakes, Ye Chenming slammed on the brakes after hearing Yan Xiaonan say that Dalong wanted to kill Nannan.
Ye Chenming's fierce aura was palpable, and Da Long suddenly felt his whole body tremble.
Cuihua was so angry that she slammed the kettle in her hand onto Dalong's forehead: "You ungrateful wretch! Your parents raised you and this is how you repay them? You good-for-nothing coward, you even tried to scam them!"
Da Long tried to open the car door and escape, but the door was locked by Ye Chenming. No matter how hard he pulled, he couldn't open it. Ye Chenming coldly said, "If you break it, you'll have to pay for it."
Da Long suddenly stopped, his eyes darting around. Just then, Bei Nan walked up from behind and knocked on the car window.
Ye Chenming unlocked the door, and Bei Nan pulled open the car door, dragging Da Long down with her. Da Long was pulled off the car. "Chenming, keep driving straight. When you see an intersection, turn left and then right. That's it."
Yan Xiaoqiang quickly sat down, worried that Cuihua might be too heartbroken and harm her health.
Ye Chenming nodded, started the pickup truck and left first. Da Long saw Bei Nan and hid back in fear, shouting, "Bei Nan, I'm your uncle, you can't lay a hand on me, or you'll be struck by lightning!"
Bei Nan looked up at the sky and nodded. That makes sense. How can a nephew hit his uncle?
"I won't hit you. Let's go to the hospital." Bei Nan picked up Da Long and walked towards the large truck behind them.
Ma Mingchun quickly lent a hand and pulled Dalong up. When Dalong saw Ma Mingchun, he knew he was doomed. What could he possibly hide from the village chief of Mushroom Village?
Southeast and Southwest were a bit confused. What was going on? Southeast said thoughtfully, "Could it be related to my uncle?"
The car arrived at the hospital quickly. Cuihua rushed into the hospital, but Yan Xiaoqiang grabbed her and said, "Cuihua, don't rush, we need to find a ward first."
Ye Chenming quickly found a nurse, asked her a few questions, pointed to the emergency room door, and led the way forward.
Yan Xiaonan hugged Enming tightly and followed behind. Yan Xiaoqiang also helped Cuihua walk forward. As soon as they stepped into the emergency room, they saw Chen's mother sitting in a chair, with her aunt and uncle next to her, as well as two uncles and several cousins.
When Chen's mother saw Chenming and Nannan, she stood up excitedly. Then, when she saw Cuihua, she rushed over, stumbling, saying, "Cuihua, I'm so sorry to your father."
Cuihua was stunned. Wasn't it Dalong who angered her father to the point of hospitalization? What does it have to do with her mother?
Old Man Chen, who had been unconscious on his sickbed for a long time, suddenly coughed. It was Nan Nan who had channeled the energy of the mountain god into him. However, Nan Nan knew that this was just a final burst of energy before death.
Cuihua rushed to Old Man Chen's bedside and called out loudly, "Dad, Dad, it's me, Cuihua! Open your eyes and look, I'm here!"
Old Man Chen really opened his eyes. Seeing Cuihua's disheveled appearance with tears and snot all over her face, he smiled with relief: "Cuihua, I have finally raised a good daughter."
Cuihua held Old Man Chen's hand and nodded repeatedly: "Dad, you'll get better. We'll take it easy and you'll get better. Once you're better, I'll take you to the capital."
Old Chen smiled even more contentedly. The days he spent retiring in Beijing were the best days of his life, and he had no regrets.
"Cuihua, has Nannan arrived? And has Beinan arrived?"
Nan Nan carried En Ming up to him and said, "Grandpa, look, this is your great-grandson, En Ming."
Old Man Chen nodded: "It's good that he looks like Chen Ming."
"Grandpa, it's me, Bei Nan." Bei Nan ran in and grabbed Old Man Chen's other hand.
"Bei Nan, you're here too. Grandpa has a favor to ask of you. After I die, please take care of this old woman. You can take all that money back; we don't need it anymore."
Upon hearing this, Chen's mother quickly took out a bankbook from her pocket and handed it to Yan Xiaonan. Yan Xiaonan opened it and saw that the bankbook had Cuihua's name written on it, and the number on the last page was 270,000.
"Grandpa, this..."
Yan Xiaonan didn't know how to say it. Even if you leave, Grandma still has to live her life, but how could she say that?
Erlong came up and said, "Nannan, just listen to my father. I will take care of my mother, so you can rest assured."
Chen Xiaomei was indignant. This money was her father's inheritance, so why should Nannan take it? She was about to speak when her husband grabbed her arm. Seeing the fierce glint in his eyes, Chen Xiaomei dared not utter a sound.
Sister Chen saw everything clearly and cursed her younger sister inwardly for being so stupid. She didn't even know whose name was on the bankbook, yet she jumped out in such a hurry.
Chen's mother knew her children all too well. Apart from Erlong, who went to the capital to work with Yan Aidang, earning a lot of money and broadening his horizons.
The others are all farmers, not only short-sighted but also petty, ruthless, and when it comes to supporting their parents, they only care about how much money they have in their pockets.
"Grandpa, don't worry, we'll take care of Grandma. And since we've given you this money, Bei Nan and I won't take it back. After all, they're my uncles and aunts, and I'll feel at ease if they're doing well," Yan Xiaonan said loudly.
Old Man Chen was completely relieved. Only Nan Nan had spoken up, and he hoped that his eldest son and the others wouldn't cause any trouble. He also hoped that his children's lives would be a little easier.
Since he and his wife started living in a courtyard house in Beijing, he realized that life could be so comfortable. When he returned to his hometown this time and saw that his grandchildren still looked pale and sickly, he felt very guilty.
