"Has he done anything lately that makes you feel his temper has worsened or he's become more irritable?"
Yan Miao continued to ask.
A thought flashed through my mind, and I suddenly slapped my thigh. "It seems so!"
"Old Tian, do you remember last week at lunch, Old Zhao got into a fight with Old Liu next door over a chicken leg, and even threw his chopsticks down!"
"It seems like that happened. I was so scared that I dropped my chicken leg on the ground. In the end, you were the only one who got to eat."
"Well--"
Yan Miao raised her hand to interrupt, "I mean, are there any more outrageous behaviors, not something as trivial as stealing chicken legs...?"
"Something a bit outrageous... Well, during volleyball class, volleyball class would be okay!"
My second uncle remembered this matter again.
"Let's calculate!"
Grandpa Tian slapped his thigh and said, "I think it definitely counts. It was Old Liu again that time. He's so annoying. He always had to throw the ball at Old Zhao."
"It's clearly his own fault for not learning properly; he can't kick the ball and yet he blames Lao Zhao for affecting him."
"So he deliberately kicked the ball at Lao Zhao's head, and you know what, he hit it every time. By the third time, Lao Zhao couldn't take it anymore, so he went over and kicked him in the butt repeatedly until he fell to the ground and couldn't get up. He even twisted his back!"
"Later, they even started calling them parents, no, they called them juniors..."
"That's finally enough!"
He made a firm promise.
“I also find it strange. Old Zhao is not usually such an impulsive person. He must have been pushed to the limit by Old Liu to act like that.”
The two old men continued their discussion, becoming more and more excited as they talked.
After listening, Yan Miao remained silent for a long time before suddenly speaking.
"It's good that Grandpa Tian is alright. As for Grandpa Zhao, why don't we go visit him together after he's discharged from the hospital? As a junior, I'd like to show my concern."
"good!"
Second Uncle wholeheartedly agreed.
“He doesn’t have a granddaughter, but as soon as he heard that I have a granddaughter, he was so envious. He’s been clamoring to see you for ages.”
"With all this happening today, there wasn't even a chance to properly introduce him. Let's go to his house for dinner another day. He often invites us over, but we just haven't had the time."
Grandpa Tian agreed, "It's settled then. Call me if you're in a hurry!"
Just because of his daughter-in-law, I have to go and see her, deflate her arrogance, and support Old Zhao.
…………
Xingyuan Villa.
"It's so noisy all the time. Why does his wife yell like that every day?"
An elderly woman dressed in fine clothes was pushing an expensive stroller out to bask in the sun, with several nannies following her cautiously.
She heard another loud noise not far away, and quickly picked up the child to comfort him, afraid of frightening her precious grandson.
"If this continues, I'm going to have security break down the door. I've told them so many times, but they won't stop. It's so annoying!"
"It seems they're saying her father-in-law has a mental illness and causes trouble at home all the time, which is why he's like this..."
Another, younger lady answered in a low voice.
"Ha, what mental illness? Old Zhao looks perfectly fine. I think it's her who's mentally ill. She's making such a racket every day. Anyone who didn't know better would think the old man is torturing her!"
"They're all shrewd people; who couldn't see through her intentions?"
The old woman gently patted the child's back, but she was extremely agitated.
Yu Yan likes to make a lot of noise every afternoon, shouting something like that—
Dad, please stop making a scene!
Dad, if you're not satisfied, I'll make it again!
And so on.......
Haha, the villa area uses the best soundproofing materials. You can't hear a thing outside, not even if you're dancing inside.
The fact that her words got out suggests she might have deliberately left the door wide open, peeking out to let outsiders hear them.
"Mom, really? What's she trying to achieve by doing this?"
The young socialite disagreed with her mother-in-law's words.
I've only ever heard of conflicts between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law, who fight each other all day long at home. What's there to argue about between a father-in-law and daughter-in-law?
"You don't understand. People are never satisfied. Some people want to be the boss of the family!"
As she was speaking, the old woman glanced at her seemingly unintentionally, and she immediately lowered her head.
After Yan Miao and the others passed by them, they immediately showed expressions of "I knew it."
It seems that Grandpa Zhao's daughter-in-law is no pushover!
"Dad, can you please calm down for a bit? You were just discharged from the hospital yesterday!"
"If this continues, we'll have to replace the nanny again. Our family's life has improved, but we can't afford to live like this..."
Yu Yan opened the door wide and shouted at the top of her lungs.
Grandpa Zhao, sitting on the sofa, held a bowl of plain porridge, looking completely bewildered.
He wants to add a dish of pickled vegetables, and then he can't make ends meet?
"What does this have to do with the nanny—"
"What kind of delicacies are we eating? We can't even make ends meet!"
"Okay, Lao Zhao, give us a bowl first."
The courtyard gate wasn't closed, and the group walked right in. The second uncle even reached out and started to take the bowl from his bowl.
The spoon swished around in the bowl several times, but nothing came out; it was just plain white porridge!
"Hey, Xiao Yu, your family is really frugal. You'll go bankrupt just from drinking a bowl of plain porridge. I'll have my little rascal send some meat to Xiao Zhao later."
Old Master Tian craned his neck to look, a sarcastic smile playing on his lips.
"hehe......."
Yu Yan looked embarrassed.
I never expected these two to show up at my door so suddenly!
But unfortunately, her husband knew they had a good relationship with the old man and had invited them over to their home several times. Now that they were here, they couldn't very well send them away.
