Li Mantun quickly carried the old lady on his back, Chunni helped Wu Zhiqi, and Chen Chengping helped the old man to the ward.
The third brother was still sitting on the ground howling, and the second brother's eyes were bloodshot.
The old man's head swayed for a moment, and Chen Chengping quickly supported him, "Grandpa, he's alright, really alright. Third Brother got hit on the head and was yelling in pain. He hit someone like that, just like a little kid."
"Are you really alright?" The old man's limbs were no longer under his control. He was truly afraid that his son would die before him, so he might as well die sooner.
"It's really nothing, go away and wail," Chen Chengping said irritably, kicking the third son. The old man and woman were both over a hundred years old and couldn't take any more shocks.
When the elderly couple, Wu Zhiqi, arrived at the bedside, they were heartbroken to see Li Mancang with his head wrapped in gauze and his face pale.
Wu Zhiqi held Li Mancang's hand, tears streaming down her face. She didn't want to see the old man pass away again. They had everything in their lives, and she wanted him to enjoy life and live on.
"Mom, Dad's fine. The doctor said he'll wake up soon," the second son comforted Wu Zhiqi.
"It's alright, what about Old Man Guan?" The old man was relieved to see that his son was alright.
"The guy in the next room has a broken leg and a bump on his head, but he's awake." The second son just went to see him, and his injuries are less severe than his father's.
"I'll go ask what happened," the old man said as Chen Chengping helped him to the next ward.
Old Guan lay on the bed, grimacing. At his age, with a broken leg, it was unlikely he would recover. His head was also throbbing with pain, probably from exerting too much force.
"Showing off, huh? You almost got my son involved," the old man said irritably.
Old Man Guan also felt quite guilty. "Who would have thought they wouldn't even let me celebrate the New Year before they started this? It's all your fault for always calling me and asking me to come to your house for the New Year. Our area is going to be demolished after the New Year, and they were afraid something would happen if I went to your house, so they panicked and started this."
The old man was speechless. He couldn't poop and blamed Mao Lanzi, but how could he blame Mao Lanzi for this?
"What's going on? What's the truth?" The old man pointed to the door, and Chen Chengping, sensing the danger, stood at the door.
"Last night I went to the bathroom, and when I came out I slipped and fell again, in the same spot. I knew I was in trouble. I tried to call you, but it was too late. The old lady came out and took my phone first. That brat said he'd studied medicine and that I just twisted my ankle and should rest and recover."
I'm all alone and helpless. What can I do? I can't just confront them head-on. I haven't lived enough yet. Anyway, if I don't go today, you'll definitely come looking for me at my house. I'll just mess with them. I'll agree to whatever they say. They'll definitely send me to meet Buddha after I sign the demolition papers."
The old man said, "So you knew they were about to make their move, why didn't you leave sooner? You're destined to be a eunuch. You've been emperor for a few years, and you've already forgotten your roots?"
Old Man Guan… He really wanted to dig up all his family's wealth right now and slap it in the old man's face, to show him that he was a descendant of royalty and that his bloodline was pure!
"Stop saying such useless things. When Mancang wakes up, let him say that I was the one who took the picture of that kid," Old Man Guan said in a low voice.
The old man, with a deadpan expression, said, "You were the one who took this picture."
Old Guan... was trembling with anger and cold.
Li Mancang woke up shortly afterward. The old man quickly whispered a few words in his ear. Li Mancang was still confused when the old man pinched him, and Li Mancang immediately snapped back to reality and nodded repeatedly.
The old woman stroked her son's head and asked, "Do you know who I am?"
