Hua Zhongzhi, seeing his wife crying every day, was also unhappy: "Look at you, why are you crying every day during the New Year? The children are filial, look at us, what a wonderful thing! Besides, Captain Ye is here too, won't people laugh at you?"
Zheng Shuzhen was even angrier when she saw Ye Yifan. Everyone in the village, even the village chief, couldn't compare to Ye Yifan. They all knew that Ye Yifan was no ordinary person. He was young, drove a car, and was respected by everyone in the village and township. He was a superior person. How could Hua Kai have managed to get on his good side?
If only I could speak, I could say bad things about Hua Kai, so that Ye Yifan would also have a bad impression of Hua Kai. If the two of them were together often, they would develop feelings for each other over time. If Hua Kai's family were given to Ye Yifan, wouldn't Ye Yifan's car also belong to Hua Kai? Then even the village chief would have to respect Hua Kai. Wouldn't Hua Kai be on top of the world?
But now Zheng Shuzhen can't even utter a complete sentence, how could she not be anxious? She was so anxious that her face was trembling.
Seeing Zheng Shuzhen like this was indeed satisfying for Hua Kai. She really wanted the original owner to come back and see this scene, but now she realized that she couldn't go back, and the original owner was gone, so she should just live her life as Hua Kai.
She said to Hua Zhongzhi, "Grandpa, Grandma is probably feeling unwell and can't think straight. I guess she'll be fine once she thinks things through. These kinds of illnesses all require an adjustment period." She then added, "Hua Lin is back. My mom and fourth aunt went to see her. My mom said it wasn't appropriate for me to go since I'm a girl, so she didn't go. But my mom said Hua Lin is recovering well. Although she can't have children in the future, it won't affect anything else. Don't worry, Grandpa."
Of course, Hua Kai was also saying this to Zheng Shuzhen, to let Zheng Shuzhen know the reality that her granddaughter was not good.
Sure enough, when Zheng Shuzhen heard this, it confirmed her suspicions. No one had told her what was wrong with Hua Lin before, but Hua Lin had indeed miscarried twice, and this time she had been hospitalized and had surgery costing a lot of money. Zheng Shuzhen was worried that Hua Lin's fertility would be affected. If a woman couldn't have children, how could she stand in her husband's family? Thinking of this, she cried even more bitterly.
Hua Chongzhi didn't know that Hua Lin was infertile before. He hadn't thought about it in that direction. After all, he was a man and didn't think about these things much.
But when he heard what Hua Kai said, his heart sank: "Can it still be cured?"
After returning from Hua Wanhe's place, Zhao Xiuzhi chatted with her neighbors for a while before coming back. So, she hadn't had a chance to talk to Hua Zhongzhi about this matter. Now that Hua Kai had brought it up, she understood what Hua Kai meant. To be honest, Zhao Xiuzhi also had grievances against Zheng Shuzhen. Zheng Shuzhen had always favored Hua Wanhe's family, giving all the good things to Huo Yanping, and in the end, she had to serve her. How could she not feel resentful?
So at this moment, she wanted to touch Zheng Shuzhen's heart. She said to Hua Zhongzhi, "Father, Linlin can't be cured. But although she can't have children, her life has been saved. That's better than anything else, right? If not, we can adopt a child later. There's always a way, isn't there?"
Hua Zhongzhi nodded: "That's the only way. But the Wang family isn't exactly a good family. I'm afraid they might not want to stay together in the future. If they get divorced because they can't have children, we won't be able to refuse."
Hua Kai said to Hua Zhongzhi, "Master, in that case, we can let Sister Linlin find a divorced man with children. That way, she won't have to give birth. It's not like there's no way out. There's always a way, right? You don't need to worry."
Hua Zhongzhi thought about it and agreed. He also learned about Hua Lin's scheme to make Hua Kai famous, and that Hua Lin hadn't fed him or brought him a single cup of water since he fell ill. To be honest, he had given this granddaughter a lot of pocket money and pampered her a lot when she was little, but unfortunately, she wasn't his biological granddaughter and was useless.
So after asking enough questions, Hua Zhongzhi wasn't too concerned about what Hua Lin could do. He thought Hua Kai's words made sense: "That's right, everyone has their own destiny. Hua Lin has been too willful all these years and has never suffered any hardship. Now that she's experiencing some hardship, it's a good way to temper her."
Hua Kai nodded and said, "Indeed, Sister Linlin has been happy since she was a child. Everyone dotes on her and spoils her so much that she doesn't know how hard life is. Unlike me, who was hungry and cold when I was a child, I know how to cherish happiness."
Although Ye Yifan knew that Hua Kai was deliberately referring to Hua Zhongzhi, he genuinely felt sorry for Hua Kai: "Some people experience sweetness first and then bitterness, while others experience bitterness first and then sweetness. You are the latter, and you will have a smooth and happy life from now on."
Hua Kai smiled upon hearing someone's words: "Thank you for your kind words, I will definitely be happy."
Zheng Shuzhen watched them chatting happily and sweetly, and she was so angry that her lungs felt like they were going to explode. She waved her hands, wanting to say something, but couldn't get the words out.
Hua Kai looked at Zheng Shuzhen and said, "Grandma, don't get excited about what you want to say. Getting excited is bad for your health. To be honest, you and Grandpa are both lying down now, and the ones who are suffering the most are my fourth uncle and aunt. No one else can help when they come. You can only see how filial you are when you are seriously ill. Grandma, you must treat your fourth uncle and aunt well in the future."
Zheng Shuzhen thought to herself, "Why do I need you to tell me about my own son?" But she just couldn't bring herself to say it.
Hua Zhongzhi sighed: "Yes, it is only in the face of a serious illness that you can see who is filial. If we are talking about filial piety, it is still the eldest and fourth sons. It's a pity that we realized it too late. Now that we have realized it, all that's left is to cause trouble for the two children. We can't help them at all."
Hua Qingyi said to Hua Zhongzhi, "Grandpa, it is only right to be filial to the elderly. Our family does not expect anything in return."
Hua Wanhai also said, "Qingyi is right. If we look at the returns, then we are not truly being filial. Dad, don't think so much. Just take good care of your health."
Hua Zhongzhi shook his head: "Sigh, the second brother isn't really a member of the Hua family after all. I don't care about his character or who he took after. I just regret that I used to think that if I gave my heart, I could get a heart in return. But the third brother... sigh, why doesn't he seem like a member of the Hua family?"
After saying this, Hua Kai and Ye Yifan looked at each other and both wondered if Hua Wanhu was not the old man's son.
However, Hua Zhongzhi muttered to himself, "But this third brother looks quite like our Hua family members, only his personality is different."
Hua Kai and Ye Yifan exchanged another glance, relieved that it probably wasn't as bizarre as they had thought.
These words were like thorns to Zheng Shuzhen's heart. It was obvious that Hua Zhongzhi no longer treated the second son as his own son. When Hua Zhongzhi said that the third son didn't seem like a member of the Hua family, she was startled and thought that the old man suspected her of having someone else.
But now, of her three sons, one has defected to Hua Wanjiang's side, one is no longer considered a member of the Hua family, and the other has disappointed Hua Chongzhi a hundred times. She really can't accept this.
But whether she accepts it or not is irrelevant; it's not up to her to decide.
