Wu Zhiqi stayed in the hospital for a few days and then went home to recuperate.
After Manman learned about this, she found Fenglan and the two talked for a long time. Manman couldn't change Fenglan's mind, so she unilaterally severed their mother-daughter relationship, making Fenglan devote herself wholeheartedly to the Song family.
After that, Fenglan never went back to her parents' home for help again. She worked two jobs to support her family.
Old Man Guan was well taken care of by his wife and stepson. Occasionally, he would casually mention some things from his past, which would make his wife and stepson secretly happy for a long time, and they would take even better care of him.
The Yan family went to the school to look for Xiaoyu once, and when they returned, Yan Baogen's leg was broken again. They even threatened that next time he would break his third leg.
Although it wasn't explicitly stated, the Yan family knew that "next time" referred to if they dared to look for Guan Xiaoyu again. The Yan family only had this one son, and they dared not let anything happen to Baogen, so they dared not look for Xiaoyu again, especially since they couldn't find her anyway.
Yan Xi left home and never returned. Her mother-in-law, Da Yatou, said she hadn't conceived yet, so the Yan family could only wait.
Xiaoyu is doing well abroad. She has made many new friends and contacts her family from time to time to share interesting things that happen around her.
The Li family also returned to a rare period of peace.
Time flies, and twelve years have passed in the blink of an eye. It's early summer of 2007.
A lot has happened in the past twelve years.
Feng Chun married Zhang Tao in 1996, and the two settled in Shanghai. Two years later, they had a daughter.
Zhao Xiaochuan had a son.
Five years later, Young Master Bai got married in a family alliance to the daughter of a powerful local gang leader. He returned abroad, took over the family business, and had three sons in five years.
Mr. Wu passed away in the year 2000.
Under the heavy-handed pressure from the second brother, Da Bao, Er Bao, and San Bao all got into high school and then university. Da Bao and Er Bao both studied logistics and went to work for logistics companies after graduation. San Bao hasn't graduated yet, but he's studying at an agricultural university, majoring in animal medicine, which is veterinary medicine. This was chosen for San Bao by the second brother, so that he could come home and help him after graduation. San Bao couldn't refuse and could only accept it, but even though he went there, his heart wasn't with the family.
Li Xingguo's daughter, Xiaoyuer, is a very good student and has been admitted to a key middle school. Dong Yun has high hopes for her.
The three children in the third brother's family: Youyou and Tuantuan are good at studying, while Yuanyuan is very round and chubby, looking just like the third brother. Of course, she is also a student; she gets sleepy as soon as she starts reading, and her grades, which are consistently the worst in the class, are very consistent.
The elderly couple are both over ninety years old, and their legs and feet are not very convenient. They are also hard of hearing and have poor eyesight. Li Mancang hired a caregiver to take care of them at home.
Grandpa Ge from the front yard became paralyzed a few years ago, and Aunt Yuan pushes him around in a wheelchair every day.
Wu Zhiqi handed over the management of her shop to her third brother, and she officially began her retirement life. In her previous life, Li Mancang had long since passed away by this time, but in this life, he was still by her side. She was also in good health, and Wu Zhiqi felt very content.
Chunni and the second son never moved out and lived in the tenement. After Dabao and Erbao graduated, they bought them houses near the logistics company and let them support themselves. Dabao and Erbao had a lot of resentment about this. They would give away the children of any family who were not married.
However, they dared not be angry or speak out. The second brother and Chunni did not indulge them at all, and they had to endure it even if they were dissatisfied.
After graduating from university, Manman was assigned to a classified unit and only returned home once every few months.
Xiaoyu is pursuing her doctorate abroad and has not returned.
The two young women are both in their thirties and still single.
That day, Big Horn excitedly trotted into the courtyard, where Grandpa Ge and Aunt Yuan were sitting in the yard enjoying the cool air.
