"I already know who leaked the information you just mentioned."
“I know, you’re talking about the original owner of the house you bought, right? His name is Guo something, he got scammed out of several thousand US dollars, and his wife seems to have run off with someone else.” Old Chang took out another cigarette from his pack and lit it.
"Pretty much, I think it should be him."
"What should we do then? Should we get a few people, brothers...?"
"No need, no need. Let him stay inside and enjoy it. Besides, he wasn't making things up; I really did get the treasure."
Li Chu dared not let this guy ask for help. Chang Laosan always seemed to be smiling and joking, but he was ruthless. However, he was really good to his own people. So, when Wenxuan interacted with him, he, as the father, did not stop him. He believed that his son could control himself.
Moreover, with Wang Yueyue around, even if Chang Laosan takes Wenxuan out, he won't dare to do anything reckless. If Yueyue finds out, she'll smash his house to pieces.
"Alright, then you handle it, Brother Chu. Just let me know if you need anything."
"If we really need help, you'll definitely be there. Go on up there."
Your father-in-law has been recovering quite well these past few days. While he's lucid, talk to him often, massage his left side, and behave well during this time. Let him see that you're not the kind of person who only knows how to cause trouble anymore.
Upon hearing this, Chang Laosan gave a wry smile: "I understand, brother. I will do my best."
Li Chu smiled and patted Chang Laosan's shoulder twice more: "Go on up, I'm leaving too."
"Okay, Brother Chu, take care."
As Chang Laosan walked into the second-floor ward, he saw his wife chatting with his second sister-in-law. He couldn't help but think of what Li Chu had told him earlier: if you don't keep her company, someone else might. He couldn't help but tremble.
He couldn't help but mutter to himself: No, I absolutely can't let this happen. From now on, I'll take Yingying with me when I go out. At worst, I won't go to the dance hall anymore.
"Xiaobin, what are you doing standing at the door instead of coming in?" Yingying asked when she saw her husband standing at the door in a daze.
"Oh, nothing, I just suddenly thought of something else. Where's Second Brother?"
"Second brother is inside wiping Dad's body, go and help him."
"I'll go right away."
...
Li Chu returned to the administration building, told Zhao Zhijun, and then drove away from the hospital, speeding directly towards the sanatorium.
When he arrived at Uncle Wang's courtyard, Ding Qiunan and the others were sitting under the shade of a tree, chatting with their children.
Little Choubao sat in Aunt Wu's lap, squirming restlessly, wanting to play with Uncle Wu's dog.
They wouldn't dare do that. Although the dog looks quite well-behaved, children sometimes don't know their own strength. If they accidentally hurt the dog, and then the dog suddenly turns around and hurts the child, then they'll be left with nothing but tears.
Unlike the other cats at home, who knew their little one was their master from the day he was born, so even if the little stinky baby pulls their fur, he won't get angry.
The little guy kept moving around in Aunt Wu's arms and was very restless, soon tiring Aunt Wu out.
"Yueyue, here you can hold him. This little guy looks small, but he's really strong. He kicked my legs and they hurt."
"You bet! I don't know if it was a dream or what, but last night he kicked me. It really hurt." Wang Yueyue stood up and took the child, complaining about her son.
"Little stinky baby, if you kick Mommy again tonight, I'll throw you under the bed."
"You try it!" Uncle Wang didn't spoil his granddaughter at all. He was talking to Grandpa Wu when he heard her words and casually tossed out a remark.
"grandfather……"
Wang Yueyue stomped her foot, just about to say something, when the dog that had been lying on the ground suddenly stood up and looked in the direction of the gate.
The guard in the gatehouse came out of the house, and after seeing who was outside, he quickly saluted and went back into the gatehouse.
After standing up and seeing who it was, the dog wagged its tail and lazily lay back down on the ground.
The little stinky baby in Yueyue's arms was different; he kept making "ah ah" sounds, stretching his little hands forward and kicking his little legs.
"Uncles and aunts, I've come to see you."
Li Chu walked into the courtyard with a smile and first greeted the elders.
When Ding Qiunan saw her man, she stood up, took the bag from his hand, and then helped him take off his coat and hang it on the back of the chair she was sitting on.
"Go wash up before holding the baby."
Seeing her husband walk straight over to hug the child, she quickly said something.
"Old Wu, look at him. He said he was coming to see us, but the first thing he did was hold his grandson." Uncle Wang said with a smile, pointing to Li Chu, who had washed his hands and taken the little rascal away.
"Grandparents love their grandchildren more, it's normal."
"He wasn't just a grandparent who doted on his grandchildren. He was very close to Wenxuan and Wenhui back then, and oh, and little Yueyue too."
"Old man, isn't that obvious? Everyone loves their own child. Do you think everyone is like you, annoyed by the sight of children?" Aunt Wang couldn't help but retort to her husband.
"Uncle, that's not fair of you. I almost came here every day to report to you, but you've changed everything."
After sitting down, Li Chu first observed the expressions on the faces of the four elderly people before speaking.
"grandfather……"
He had barely settled in when the little rascal in his arms dropped a huge bombshell on him.
"Wow, my grandson can call me grandpa already?"
This was a pleasant surprise for Li Chu, as the dog couldn't bark when it was delivered the day before.
"He called out once when he woke up this morning and was drinking milk from his bottle. It seems he really knows how to call Grandpa."
From the moment her man entered, Ding Qiunan's eyes never left him.
“Dad Chu, this is not how it works. Other children learn to say ‘Dad’ and ‘Mom’ first, but it’s different in our family.”
Wang Yueyue was full of complaints when it came to calling him "Mom." She was waiting for her child to be the first to call her "Mom," but this is what happened.
"The child is closer to me, so he'll definitely call me first, right, my little rascal? Say it again, Grandpa..."
"Master..."
"Haha, oh my sweet little rascal, let Grandpa give you a kiss, mua..."
"Giggle giggle..."
Li Chu's stubble around his mouth prickled the child, who laughed and dodged at the same time.
...
At night, Uncle Wang lived on the second floor of the small building, while Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang lived on the first floor. Li Chu and Ding Qiunan lived in a bedroom on the second floor, and Wang Yueyue lived next door.
How have you been resting these past two days?
Li Chu leaned against the headboard, hugged his wife, and asked softly.
"It's not bad, but I miss you a little. I'm still not used to not having you hold me at night."
