The Cheng family had been hiding the fact that Cheng Zhaohui was in prison from the seriously ill Cheng Zeming, not to mention that the ancestral home was sold by Cheng's eldest sister-in-law for more than 100,000 yuan and she ran away with the children.
If these things were told to him, he would probably be so angry that he would die.
Cheng Zeming was lying on the hospital bed, still hoping to see Granny Zhang. He was only 10 years old, but he looked as old as 70. If she knew, who would have thought that he was once the child raised by Granny Zhang?
"Mom..." He lay on the bed and looked at Cheng Jiangnan beside him: "You said you would bring your grandma over, where is she? I just want to call her mom again. She raised me until I was ten years old, and I am the one who owes her..."
Before he was ten years old, he always believed that Chen Shuxian had usurped the position of his biological mother, Qin Lanzhi. If his father had forced him to marry her, then why was Qin Lanzhi hidden by his father, and why did they have to meet in secret?
At that time, he was very sensible. After Qin Lanzhi's death, he still cared about his mother who raised him, cursing: "I don't recognize you as my mother, you are our family's nanny! I like you, and my father likes you too!"
He still remembers the look in his mother's eyes, which were filled with shock, despair, coldness, and then no pain or joy...
After Zhang Shuxian left, he slowly began to feel her goodness.
When Qin Lanzhi passed away, apart from being hurt and sad, his life was not affected too much. In fact, one of the brothers vented his resentment towards Zhang Shuxian because of the death of his biological mother.
The two naughty brothers deliberately soiled their clothes, smashed the bowls, and even pretended to wet the bed, forcing Zhang Shuxian to wash the sheets over and over again in the middle of winter.
In this way, their father would still complain that she didn't know how to take care of the children.
But at that time, Zhang Shuxian didn't know about Qin Lanzhi's existence. She just thought that the children were too naughty. She never had the heart to punish them harshly and tolerated their unreasonable behavior time and time again.
He thought she was leaving him and his father. After all, his father said that she had no work, no family, and nowhere to go.
So after their father's notebook was discovered, they didn't panic or feel guilty at all, but let her swallow this grievance as a matter of course...
Thinking of this, Cheng Zeming burst into tears: "After your grandma left, I don't know what it feels like to be without a mother..."
Everyone looked down on them, saying they were wild children without a mother. When they returned home, they no longer had hot meals or clean clothes. Even when their two younger brothers were sick, their father knew about it.
At that time, he finally realized that he had lost the best person in his life.
It was he who followed Cheng Qingjun to Haicheng countless times and begged for her forgiveness. She said that she had never been his mother and that she had no relationship with the Cheng family anymore...
How much he wanted to call her mom again!
Cheng Jiangnan could only comfort him: "Dad, don't worry, I will bring grandma back."
Cheng Zeming breathed a sigh of relief and thought of his eldest son: "Where has your eldest brother been recently? He hasn't been here for a while, and he's still strong."
At his age, family affection is extremely important, especially since he has never had any in his life.
Cheng Jiangnan was still considered filial, and he lied: "Brother is very busy these days. The Architectural Design Institute has taken on a new project, which is a project for overseas Chinese. How can he have the time to come?"
Cheng Zeming nodded: "Your eldest brother is the most promising."
Cheng Jiangnan smiled and said, "Yes."
"What about Zhuangzhuang? This kid should be on summer vacation, right? He should come and see me. What can a little kid like him do?" Apart from his two sons, Cheng Zeming only has this eldest grandson in his eyes. He is the inheritance of the Cheng family!
Cheng Jiangnan tucked the quilt under him and said, "You remembered the date wrong. Summer vacation will start next month, and the final exams will be soon. I'm studying very hard now."
Cheng Zeming agreed and said, "You have to study hard. Your grandma likes children who study well. At that time, every time I got a point in the exam, she would cook an egg for me..."
His voice was a little choked up as he said, "The conditions were so difficult back then. She never gave up eating eggs and meat, but she raised us all very well."
After she left, her two younger brothers fell ill and passed away early, leaving him alone lying in bed. Is this really retribution?
Cheng Jiangnan was afraid of being exposed if he continued, so he stood up and said with a smile: "When Zhuangzhuang has his summer vacation, I will take him to Haicheng. Grandma likes children so much, she will definitely be willing to come with us."
Cheng Zeming nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Zhuangzhuang is a chubby kid, very cute."
Cheng Jiangnan: "Dad, I still have some things to do, you should have a good rest in the hospital."
In fact, Cheng Zeming's condition is not serious, but he is too worried, so he lies in bed. If Grandma Zhang is willing to forgive him, it is said that his father's illness will definitely get better.
In addition to wanting those calligraphy and paintings, this is also the reason why Cheng Jiangnan wants Grandma Zhang to come back to Beijing North.
With his father getting better, plus those calligraphy and paintings, and the relationship between Grandma Zhang and several big men in Beijing, the Cheng family will only be more glorious than before. Unfortunately, that old lady is so greedy that she treats a bastard as a treasure and refuses to recognize the son she raised!
Coming out of the ward, Cheng Jiangnan's face darkened. He didn't want to offend Granny Zhang, after all, he had to call her grandma too.
But Grandma Zhang has been obsessed with it, and Shen Subai and Xie Yunshu have interfered, so he can only use that method! No matter what, for him, the Cheng family is the most important!
During the whole process, Jiangnan was thinking about his plan, and he knew that after he left the ward, a strange intern nurse would go in.
The young nurse was very enthusiastic and talkative: "Uncle, are you hungry? I'll bring you some food."
Cheng Zeming shook his head: "I can't eat at all, let's talk about it later."
The young nurse frowned and consoled him, "You are still sick, how can you eat? If you don't take care of yourself, when can you go out? I know you are in a good mood because of your son's matter, but your own health is the most important..."
Cheng Zeming was puzzled: "What about my son?"
The young nurse said quickly: "Oh, it's just because of corruption and violation of regulations that he went to jail for a few years. He is dead! Besides, your daughter-in-law sold the old house for so much money, and she will definitely live a good life with your grandson..."
Cheng Zeming felt as if he had been hit hard, his face instantly lost all color: "What nonsense are you talking about?!"
