"Sister Zijin, how is the old man? It seems that his condition is not very good." Gu Niansheng's face was full of worry. Looking at Xu Zhenli's back as he left, he couldn't help but ask.
Qin Zijin retracted his gaze and glanced at Gu Niansheng. "Everyone has to go through birth, aging, sickness and death. Uncle Xu is already in his eighties or nineties. It's normal for him to have health problems. I guess it's just a matter of days. Do you remember what I just said?"
Seeing Gu Niansheng's face full of sadness, Qin Zijin couldn't help but raise his hand and knock on her forehead.
"Oh, Sister Zijin, you can just make noodles for him yourself, why do you want me to bring them to him?" Gu Niansheng covered his forehead and asked in grievance and confusion.
"How can I have time? Come and make him some noodles yourself. Didn't I teach you how to make Yangchun noodles? I heard from Su San that your noodles are delicious." Qin Zijin glanced at her unhappily.
Gu Niansheng scratched his head and said with a smile, "Really? Su San seemed to say that the noodles I made were delicious and he drank all the soup, but I think my noodles were pretty average."
"It's okay, just make it. Remember to make a bowl every morning, noon and evening. It will probably be around the New Year." Qin Zijin calculated the days and estimated that he wouldn't be able to make it until the first day of the New Year.
The few injections she gave him were only to relieve the old man's pain so that he could live more comfortably in his last days.
"I'm 28 this year." Gu Niansheng was shocked when he heard Qin Zijin's words.
"He should be able to come and have one last bowl of noodles on New Year's Eve. Let's give him a good farewell." Qin Zijin shook his head, patted Gu Niansheng's shoulder, and left.
Gu Niansheng was sad for a while before realizing that he had been fooled by Qin Zijin again and had become an employee for no apparent reason.
But when I think that the old man only has a few days left to live, I feel a little sad.
When Qin Zijin returned home, Zheng Huilin was still sitting in the hall, seemingly calculating something.
Qin Zijin walked over, took a look, and asked, "Mom, what are you doing?"
There were a lot of gold jewelry on the table, including earrings, hairpins, bracelets, necklaces, and even a lot of gold melon seeds, gold beans, and pendants like gold abacus.
Qin Zijin took a glance and estimated that there were several kilograms of gold.
Zheng Huilin smiled and looked up at her, explaining, "This is the hardware for Qingqing. When you got married, I should have prepared a dowry for you, but at that time..."
Zheng Huilin shook her head halfway through her speech, sighed, and continued, "I'm sorry to have wronged you, but I've kept all the dowry I prepared for you. I haven't touched it at all and will give it all to you later. This is for your brother. I've saved it for many years, and finally he's willing to get married. I originally thought he had no intention of getting married in this life, but I didn't expect him to meet Qingqing. Qingqing is indeed a good girl. Your father really misunderstood her."
"It doesn't matter. No one cares whether he misunderstood or not." Qin Zijin said indifferently, and then sat down next to Zheng Huilin.
Zheng Huilin's eyes held a hint of helplessness. "Actually, your father is just a little stubborn. He sometimes speaks without thinking. It's a habit he developed since childhood. He was the only son in the family, and his parents and sisters spoiled him. He's been used to giving orders and being the boss since he was a child. He's never encountered any setbacks, which is why he's like this now."
"He's old now, and he wasn't even allowed to attend his son's wedding. It's really a bit..."
Qin Zijin frowned and looked at Zheng Huilin, "I won't let him ruin my brother and Qingqing's wedding. If you plan to inform him, I will also have security stop him outside the hotel."
"Mom, I know you've been married to him for decades and have a very good relationship. I also know you hope that we can all accept him and live happily together as a family. I also want what you want, but he doesn't. He doesn't want to be happy with us. He just wants us to accommodate him and obey him!"
"My brother has suffered so much over the years and endured so much injustice. I finally saw him find his own happiness. I won't let anyone ruin it, no one!"
Qin Zijin's attitude was very firm.
Zheng Huilin originally wanted to say something, but when she met Qin Zijin's gaze, she immediately gave up the idea.
Today's conversation with Bai Chengbo and the others was very pleasant. She even naively thought that if Qin Haisheng came and saw Bai Chengbo's family like this, he would definitely not oppose Qin Zixuan and Bai Qingqing anymore, right?
"Mom, he opposes my brother not because he doesn't like Qingqing, but because he feels that his dignity as a man has been hurt and his authority as the head of the family has been violated! He is just simply unhappy that someone doesn't obey him! I don't think he will regret it or change. He can't attend my brother's wedding, so you can just think of me as ruthless and cruel. If you dare to inform him, I will not recognize you as his mother!" Qin Zijin looked at Zheng Huilin, afraid that she would do something in a fit of rage and ruin the marriage that Qin Zixuan and Bai Qingqing had finally gotten, so her attitude was very firm.
Zheng Huilin's expression suddenly changed, and she spoke agitatedly, "I, I won't, I won't tell him. Zijin, don't be angry. I will definitely not tell him."
Qin Zijin took a deep breath and said, "Think carefully about what I said. You've lived with him for forty years, so you must know him better than I do. I don't need to say anything else."
After saying that, he got up and went upstairs.
Zheng Huilin sat there, thinking about Qin Zijin's words, and finally couldn't help wiping away her tears.
She suddenly realized that Qin Zijin was right.
She couldn't find any reason to refute it.
Because she knew that Qin Haisheng was such a person.
Qin Zijin returned to the second floor. Tang Can went to help see someone off and had not returned yet.
Looking at Tang Siwan sucking her thumb with a carefree look, Qin Zijin couldn't help but sigh, "Wanwan, I really envy you. With a good mother like me, you don't have to worry about encountering so many bad things in the future. You definitely won't have any terrible parents to hinder your free love."
Tang Siwan glanced at Qin Zijin with disdain and continued sucking her thumb.
She now finds that sucking her thumb seems to help her accumulate some strength, and maybe even help her grow faster.
Although this matter does not seem to have any necessary connection.
But never mind, isn’t it natural for babies to suck their fingers?
Qin Zijin looked at Tang Siwan eating her fingers with relish, and couldn't help but grabbed her hand and put it in her mouth and took a bite.
Tang Siwan froze and even forgot to suck her fingers. She stared at Qin Zijin blankly. The next second, earth-shaking cries echoed throughout the second floor, scaring Qin Zijin so much that his face changed.
