Chapter 636 Who will return to Beijing first?

Pingping led them upstairs.

From the hospital gate to the door of Yan Ziyuan's ward, in the few minutes it took, at least seven or eight people greeted him, and the nurse at the front desk stuffed some snacks into his pocket.

"Sister, I won't eat these candies. I'll leave them for you."

"Um."

In fact, An An's anger had almost subsided, but she was still a little uncomfortable.

When she entered the ward and saw Yan Ziyuan lying on the bed, she hurried over to inquire about the situation.

"Dad, does it hurt? An An will help you breathe."

"Thank you, An An. Daddy doesn't feel any pain."

"Why are you here?"

"I miss you guys, I want to be with you guys."

If she had known that day would happen, she would not have gone next door to play with Xixi, otherwise she could have come along to take care of her father.

"So good."

After helping her take off her shoes and tucking her into bed, Yan Ziyuan greeted Chen Guoxing and Yan Zijun.

"Dad, big brother, thank you for your hard work."

He also guessed that his grandfather would send someone to help, but he didn't expect that the person would be his eldest brother.

"We are not in a difficult situation, but you need to take good care of your injuries. Your family is very worried about your condition."

"I'm fine. I'm almost well now. Xiaoyu took good care of me. We plan to buy tickets to return to Beijing on the third day of the New Year."

But this time, because I had surgery, I couldn’t take a plane and could only take the slow train back to Beijing.

"Why are you in such a hurry to be discharged from the hospital?"

"It's been less than ten days since you had the surgery. Don't make the wound worse by rushing home."

"It's really okay. The doctors said I'm recovering well."

Yan Zijun didn't say much. He was a soldier himself and knew that getting injured while on a mission was inevitable.

If it were him, as soon as he could move, he would definitely prefer to recuperate at home.

They chatted for a few minutes, and Song Fuyu came back after shopping.

"Why didn't you eat first?"

"I was so busy chatting that I didn't think about eating."

The table was quickly set up, and several people gathered around the small table and ate up all the food and cakes.

After dinner, Pingping gave all the dozen or so candies in his pocket to Anan, and the brother and sister became as good as one again.

"Fourth brother's wife, is the post office far from here? I'll call home."

"Uncle, I'll take you to the doctor and call him."

"Take this to the doctor."

Song Fuyu took out an orange and an apple from the luggage bag under the bed and handed them over.

"Remember after the fight..."

"Mom, I know. I'll say thank you."

Pingping was most afraid of her repeating the same thing over and over again.

"Haha, okay, mom won't emphasize it anymore, just take uncle with you."

..........

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the gauze on Pingping's hand was removed.

Chen Guoxing looked at the new flesh growing on his hand and couldn't help but tears up in his eyes.

The eldest grandson also suffered this time.

"Xiao Yu, Pingping is still so young, but he is going to the army to train with your father-in-law. Has it been decided that he will join the army in the future?"

After this incident, he felt that military families like the Yan family were only "glorious on the surface" and only the Yan family knew how much suffering they had endured inside.

In his opinion, glory, power and influence are not as important as peace.

“No.”

"Now it's just to train his body and temper his will."

"Ping Ping An and An An don't want to go to the daycare center, so we have to find something for them to do."

"As for which path they will take in the future, it is up to them to decide. Grandpa and my father-in-law can only guide them but not force them."

"That's fine."

On the second day of the Chinese New Year, Yan Ziyuan was discharged from the hospital.

Early in the morning on the third day of the New Year, the four adults and two children boarded the train to go home. On the evening of the fifth day, Grandpa Yan personally went to the train station to pick them up and take them home.

Picking up his grandson was secondary. He came mainly to pick up Pingping and Song Fuyu.

"Pingping from our family has suffered this time. Great Grandpa asked your grandmother Liu to make you your favorite sweet and sour pork, sweet and sour spareribs, braised fish...all of which are what you and An'an like to eat."

"Grandpa, a man shouldn't always talk about hardship and pain."

"Haha, yes."

"But you are still young, you can talk about it occasionally."

"I don't want to. I'm a man now. I can protect my parents, my sister and my brother."

"You won't protect your great grandfather?"

"Grandpa is the most powerful person in the family and can protect all of us."

On the way home, the old man couldn't stop smiling because of Pingping's little mouth.

Among all the great-grandchildren in the family, none has ever won his heart as much as Pingping. He believes that this little guy will be able to lead their Yan family to a higher level in the future.

When they returned home, no one in the family paid any attention to Yan Ziyuan, the seriously injured patient who had not yet fully recovered. All their attention was on Pingping.

Especially Grandma Yan and Mother Yan, they wanted to strip Pingping naked to see if he had any injuries anywhere on his body except his hands.

At the dinner table that day, Yan's mother insisted on feeding Pingping herself, which made Pingping so embarrassed that she wanted to hide under the table.

After dinner, Mr. Yan and his father called the brothers Yan Zijun and Yan Ziyuan into the study.

"Zijun, please hold off on returning to Beijing for now."

"Grandpa, I understand."

"Let's transfer my fourth brother back first. After all, his wife and the children are all in Jing City. I'm fine in Su City too, so it doesn't matter if I wait another two years."

He wanted to return to Beijing. After all, he was the eldest in the family, but he had never fulfilled his obligation to take care of his elders. Instead, it was the youngest daughter-in-law who took care of his grandparents and parents for them.

Now the fourth brother and his wife live apart, and his fourth brother's wife has to take care of not only the elderly but also four children. As the eldest brother, it is reasonable and moral for him to give in and let the fourth brother return to Beijing first.

"Brother, I'm sorry."

"What nonsense! We are brothers, there is no need to be so polite. Not only me, but your sister-in-law also thinks that you should return to Beijing first."

"Yatong has been in the first year of high school for half a semester. She suddenly changed schools and everything around her changed. Your sister-in-law is afraid that it will affect her studies. It's okay for us to come back after she finishes the college entrance examination."

The old man was afraid that the two brothers would develop a rift, so he thought of calling them in to have a chat. After all, Zijun had been working on the transfer back to Beijing for a long time and had put in a lot of effort.

"Since the decision has been made, Lao Si, while you recover from your injuries, come up with a list and hand it over to me."

"clear."

The people on the list must be the brothers he trusts the most and whom he can back up.

When he returns to Beijing, they will be transferred with him.

As for who would be on the list, he had already thought about it.
