"You're all so focused on relying on one person to turn your whole family's fortunes around, what do you think that's all there is to it?" The old lady lifted her eyelids slightly.
Life was tough back then, and that's really how it was. College graduates were guaranteed to become cadres, with high salaries and good benefits, and the whole family would benefit from it.
"The sanatorium is quite good. Let him stay there for a while longer and take good care of himself," the old man sighed. Old habits die hard.
The second brother touched his nose guiltily and changed the subject, "A hot spring resort was built on the outskirts of the city. I bought a villa there with hot spring water in the house. The environment is very nice. After Xiaoyu's wedding, it will be warm enough for us to stay there for a while. Soaking in hot springs is good for your health. We can come back when it gets cold in winter."
The old man said, "Hot springs are great! It's been years since I've had one. Is the house big enough? Let's bring the one with the bad leg and the one who's paralyzed, so they can enjoy a soak too."
Old Man Guan, whose leg was broken, and Grandpa Ge, who was paralyzed, sneezed together.
"I'm buying two houses; there'll be enough room for the whole family." Since there are many people in the family, the second son bought two adjacent houses together.
"The second son and Chunni are so thoughtful and filial," the old lady praised.
"Grandma, this isn't filial piety at all. The house is still ours, so you can stay here," Chunni said with a smile.
"Who can take that thing away? They're all just living here. Only you two would still care about us two old folks." The old lady patted Chunni's hand. Of all her granddaughters-in-law, Chunni was the one she was most proud of.
Li Mancang… It seems like my mother is referring to him, no, this is his son, she's referring to Mantun, he has to relay the message.
On one side, the mother and grandson were being kind and filial, enjoying a harmonious and joyful time. On the other side, Li Xingguo was shouting and yelling.
Li Xingguo began to struggle violently as soon as he got into the car, banging on the window for help. A person in a white coat wearing a mask took out a syringe from the medical kit and quickly gave Li Xingguo an injection, amidst his terrified gaze.
Li Xingguo slowly slid his hand down from the window and peacefully closed his eyes.
When he woke up again, he was lying in a private hospital room. His eyes were glazed over for only a second before he saw that the windows in the room were covered with iron bars and the door was also an iron door. He immediately tried to get out of bed, but as soon as he moved, he found that his hands, feet, shoulders, waist and legs were all fixed and he could not move at all.
Li Xingguo was extremely panicked. "Let me out! Let me out! I'm not sick, let me out!"
"Let me out! I'm not sick! This is illegal imprisonment! I'm going to sue you!"
Li Xingguo flailed wildly, terrified. Li Xingye was too ruthless, too vicious. If he were locked up here for the rest of his life, he would be finished.
Li Xingye...you're dreaming! It's so expensive here, who's going to pay you to live here for the rest of your life? You're dreaming!
The door suddenly opened, and a nurse carrying a tray came in. She had half-gray hair and looked to be in her fifties or sixties.
"You even told us that you're so capable. We advise you to save your energy, stay here and recover from your injuries. Once you're healed, you can leave."
"Let me out right now! You're breaking the law! I'm not sick at all! You're illegally detaining me!" Li Xingguo shouted, his eyes wide.
"You're really something! You're not sick, but what's wrong with your lower part? Little one, stop making a fuss, or Auntie will give you a shot!" The nurse snapped the small medicine bottle open and drew out the large syringes one by one.
Li Xingguo was horrified. "If I'm sick, I'll go to the hospital. I'm not here. Let me go right now, or I'll definitely sue you when I get out."
"Sigh, another disobedient brat," the nurse sighed, and with a snap, ripped the blanket off Li Xingguo.
Only then did Li Xingguo realize that his lower body felt chilly; he wasn't wearing pants!
"Ah~~ Pervert, you pervert, let me go! Let me go!" Li Xingguo couldn't move his body except for his head.
