But the more anxious he became, the less sound he made, and finally his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Chen Xiangnan and the others were even more annoyed. This old man had never been so bad-tempered before. How come after not seeing him for a while, he made himself so angry that he had a stroke and then fainted.
Several people hurriedly sent the man to the hospital, but less than an hour after leaving the hospital, Old Chen came back again.
When he woke up, he found that he could not speak a word, but could only scream. Before, his legs could not walk properly, but his hands could move, and he could even hold the bowl and eat with trembling hands.
But now, it’s no longer possible. He completely needs someone to feed him.
This made things convenient for the children. Old Chen was an extremely stubborn and selfish person, especially after he became paralyzed.
The children breathed a sigh of relief. The old man would not ask Yang Su to be released from the Public Security Bureau again, nor would he torture them.
All you need to do is pay some money and have Uncle Li come back to take care of it. Although his condition might require more money to hire someone, it's better than him being so bossy while he's half-paralyzed.
But Old Chen obviously didn't think so. He was panicked and had a lot of things to say in his mind, but he couldn't say them, as if his soul was sealed in his body.
The others openly discussed his affairs. Chen Xiangbei still decided to visit him every day, just for show. Chen Xianghong planned to visit him once a week, and Chen Xiangdong would come when he had time. As for Chen Xiangnan, an expatriate, he could be ignored.
Old Chen stayed in the hospital for another two days. He could not accept that he had become like this and had lost hope in life. He stared blankly at the ceiling of the hospital, thinking that he might as well die if he lay there like this.
Chen Xiangnan bought some food, but Old Chen refused to eat it. He tried to feed him water, but Old Chen refused to drink it either.
They were wrong. Even though Old Chen was paralyzed, he was still a stubborn old man.
Yang Su was detained for several days and no one from the Chen family showed up. Wang Xian visited her several times. The child had never been away from her mother for so long and was almost scared.
"Mom, what should I do? When can you come out?" Wang Xian asked pitifully.
No matter where they lived before or with Old Chen, the mother and son were not popular. No one liked them, so naturally no one would give them any advice.
Wang Ming hadn't appeared in a long time since Yang Su was arrested. I don't know if he hadn't heard the news or if he was planning to sever ties with Yang Su.
It's never a good thing.
Yang Su grabbed Wang Xian's hand and said, "Third brother, you are all I have left. You are all I have left. Listen to me, go find your second brother..."
Before she could finish, Wang Xian interrupted her, "Mom, I've looked for him, but my second brother won't see me. He won't see me."
Yang Su: "Then make a big scene until he sees you. You must make him save Mom. Third brother, Mom hasn't found you a job yet. If Mom really goes to labor camp, what will you do?"
Wang Xian nodded.
Then she asked, "Have you told your eldest brother?"
Wang Xian: "Yes, I sent a telegram and wrote a letter, but there was no reply."
Yang Su: "I must ask your elder brother to help me find a solution, I must!"
A few days passed, but Wang De did not come back to see her until Yang Su's verdict came out. He only sent her a letter saying that he was going to marry the female comrade he met when he went to the countryside.
Yang Su continued to curse. Wang De even guessed that Yang Su was going to curse, and said in his heart that he was afraid that she would curse him and that female comrade, so he simply didn't come back.
He would take care of all the marriage procedures himself, so Yang Su didn't need to worry about it.
Yang Su was so angry that he tore up the letter and said that he had given birth to this eldest son in vain.
Yang Su was taken to a labor camp. Wang Xian wanted to find his second brother to help him find a job, but it was not until Yang Su left that Wang Xian realized what fragile brotherhood was.
Wang Ming only cared about himself and didn't care about Wang Xian's life or death, leaving the unemployed Wang Xian to struggle to survive on his own.
His grandparents didn't like Yang Su's family, so naturally they didn't like Wang Xian either. He wanted to go back to Old Chen, but he was guarded by several of the Chen family's children. Besides, there seemed to be no reason for him to go back.
His mother divorced Uncle Chen before the verdict was handed down. One was a labor camp prisoner and the other was paralyzed. The rest of their lives would probably be filled with nothing but pain.
Seeing that there was no place to live, Wang Xian had to graduate from high school early and directly responded to the policy of going to the countryside, thinking that going to remote rural areas might be a way out.
His mother Yang Su left him a hundred yuan with the last of her motherly love, and he didn't know where the rest of the money was.
Old Chen, feeling depressed and irritable, finally accepted his fate. He could no longer expect his children to listen to him. He had very little money and needed to pay for the medical treatment and Uncle Li.
His feelings had already been exhausted by what happened before, and now having someone feed him and take care of him was already the most he could do.
He stopped making trouble and just lay in bed staring out the window every day. As the New Year approached, the sound of firecrackers outside became more frequent. The children were still the same children, but no one came to his house to call him grandpa.
Everyone avoided this house, thinking it was unlucky.
A once prosperous family was destroyed, leaving only Old Chen hanging on to his last breath, waiting to die.
It was lively over at Old Lady Xia's place. Chen Xiangnan was a good talker and he brought a lot of specialties from other places to distribute to the people in the compound. They settled down smoothly at Jiang Wenhua's house.
Old Lady Xia asked Tang Jiao for him, but the child was still worried. However, she was kind-hearted, and although she didn't want to see Chen Xiangnan, she asked Old Lady Xia to take the child to him to see.
Chen Xiangnan felt guilty when he looked at the child who was much smaller than the one Chen Lingling gave birth to.
He held the child carefully, took out a pure gold safety lock from his pocket and stuffed it into her swaddling clothes. He made two of them and hung one around Chen Lingling's neck.
Old Mrs. Xia sighed. It was his own fault and he should bear the consequences.
New Year's Eve is just a few days away. Old Mrs. Xia had planned long ago that she must have a comfortable New Year's Eve this time, so she started checking the list to see if there was anything missing.
Chen Xianghong sent a lot of meat. It seemed that the troops had encountered wild boars, and they killed and divided the ones they caught.
Old Mrs. Xia pickled most of them and left only a fresh piece to cook and eat directly.
Chen Xiangnan brought a lot of things from other places that she had never seen before. Old Mrs. Xia and her sister studied and cooked them at the same time, and they memorized a lot of recipes.
Chen Xiangbei even greeted them in advance. He had found out what the factory would distribute this time, so he wished that Grandma Xia and the others would not buy duplicate New Year goods.
This year, I will definitely have a good new year.
