The main reason was that Old Man Guan believed in Li Mancang's character and was also thinking of Xiaoyu's future. Even after they were gone, Xiaoyu and the next generation would not sever ties with the Li family.
“Your grandfather was afraid you would meet the wrong person, so these were all backup plans for you. He’s probably using them now to avoid any negative impact on you and to resolve this matter peacefully. The old man has thought a lot about you.”
Xiaoyu smiled but tears streamed down her face. "That's how my grandpa is. He does a lot, but he doesn't want me to know anything about it."
"Just be happy. Even if we're gone, your second and third brothers and nephews will protect you," Li Mancang patted Xiaoyu's shoulder.
"Dad, thank you all," Xiaoyu said with tears in her eyes. It was so good to have so many relatives.
Li Mancang: "If the family says things like that, I wonder if the old lady will tear your grandfather apart when she sees these things tomorrow, haha."
"My grandpa is so mean," Xiaoyu said, flipping through the IOU, which was worth about 500,000 yuan. She wondered how the old man would explain these expenses.
The next day, Li Mancang took Chunni and Xiaoyu to the hospital. After all, she was an old lady, so it was more appropriate for Chunni to go.
Chunni was full of fighting spirit; she was determined to tear the wicked old lady apart.
At the hospital, the third son, having heard last night that he was going to settle accounts with the old lady today, didn't leave.
The old lady and her daughter-in-law arrived early and even brought breakfast for Old Man Guan.
On the 30th, the daughter-in-law went out to buy medicine for Old Man Guan. When she came back, she saw a yard full of police officers, so she didn't dare to go near them. She has been taking care of her son at the hospital for the past few days. Today, the old lady specially asked her to come and help.
"Old man, I specially cooked this porridge for you," the old lady said with a smile.
"Is it sea cucumber porridge or bird's nest porridge?" Old Guan asked with a smile.
"You've been eating like this for so many years, haven't you had enough yet? Your good physique is all thanks to these good foods. Most of Changshun's salary has been spent on you," the old lady constantly reminded Guan Laotou of how they had taken care of him all these years.
"Who told Changshun to say he didn't have a biological father and wanted to experience fatherly love?" Old Man Guan sighed helplessly.
The old lady... she got the benefit but still acts innocent, she's such a jerk.
"I came early today, so I just cooked some plain porridge. Old man, make do with this for now, I'll cook you something nicer for lunch."
Old Man Guan: "Forget it, my granddaughter can buy it for me later. My legs are only kept going thanks to good nutrition. I won't eat anything that's not nutritious but just fills up my stomach."
"You're so delicate, old man. You don't need to rush. You don't need to give me half of the house now. Anyway, the relocation will happen in a few days, and we can divide it then," the old lady said, changing the subject to the important matter.
The third brother saw that both Old Man Guan and Old Woman were smiling, and in his heart he wished he could strangle them. It's good to be old; they don't show their emotions.
Old Man Guan: "Don't worry, I'll give you an explanation as I say I will."
The old lady's daughter-in-law was overjoyed to hear this; after all these years of hard work, it was finally going to pay off.
A short while later, Li Mancang and the others arrived.
Xiaoyu held two insulated containers in her hands. "Grandpa, let's eat."
What are we having for breakfast this morning?
"Seafood congee, and stewed chicken with gastrodia elata."
"Sigh, I'm so tired of eating this every day. Chunni, you've had a hard time," said Old Man Guan at Versailles.
Chunni... she didn't do it. We have a housekeeper at home, so she doesn't need to cook now.
Li Mancang sat by Old Man Guan's bedside, holding the small box.
The group stared at each other, wide-eyed, as Old Man Guan slowly and deliberately finished his meal.
