"Why did I hear that your boy was in the hospital? He's not staying in the hospital with his youngest son, is he?"
"Sister-in-law is really well-informed. The news reached you so quickly."
"Haha, sister, you're not kidding. My workplace is right nearby, and everyone in the area knows about what happened to that gangster yesterday. Sister, I'm worried about you, and it's for your own good. Guoming has been helping that guy find a blind date and looking for a job lately. You have to be careful, and hold on to the money at home."
"Sister-in-law, I've told you countless times not to say such things in the future. After all, Xiaochen is Guoming's child. Now that he's grown up, it's time for him to worry about his partner and job. If his father doesn't care, who will?"
"...I'm just thinking about you. I'm worried that Guoming might be fooled by that kid."
"No, I know what kind of tempers the father and son have. Sister-in-law, I'll go inside to see mom first. You go ahead and do your work."
Her sister-in-law is good in every way, except that she likes to meddle in her family affairs, which is a bit annoying.
Liu Guixian brought a bag of malted milk and some fruits.
Her mother is old and can't eat other fruits, but she can eat oranges.
"Your sister-in-law doesn't guard the door again?" Liu Guixian heard her mother say as soon as she entered the house.
"Um... Mom, how are you feeling right now?"
"I took the medicine, but it's all the old problems. Your sister-in-law called you back again."
"Mom, my sister-in-law is home alone. What will she do if something happens to you? I have nothing to do at work these days."
"Alas, I'm old and useless, and I'm just causing you trouble."
"Mom, everyone gets old one day."
"Yes, everyone gets old someday, and it's time for you to change your temper. That child lost his mother when he was young, and lived with his grandfather for a few years. He's been with you all the rest of the time. Even if you hate him, you should have some feelings for him."
"Mom, you don't have to persuade me. Guoming came back early this morning and didn't even rest. He went out again. Guess where he went?... He went to burn paper for that woman. Today is her death anniversary."
"Why are you mad at a dead man?"
"Humph, I just feel uncomfortable."
"You just can't get over it. She died giving birth. You weren't blessed. That child was a gift from God. After all these years, you still can't see his character? You've despised him for so many years, and you haven't complained at all.
After his hand became crippled, you demanded a division of the family property. You gave him a dilapidated house, which was fortunately demolished, but you unreasonably took it back. The child never said anything and never held any grudges. What a generous child! If you had been a little nicer to him, you'd have someone to carry things for you and buy you gifts when you were old.
"Mom, I don't expect that. He just needs to get married and live his own life."
"Oh my, my silly girl. You are so old, why can't you come around?
You didn't go to the hospital when he was injured this time, did you? That's outrageous."
Liu Guixian didn't know how to defend herself after hearing what her mother said.
"I'll go back in the afternoon, buy some meat, make something delicious for the child, and go to the hospital."
"I'm not going. Guoming is enough."
"How come you don't feel sorry for Guoming at all? He has to go to work and look after the children at night. He's not young anymore, how can he bear it?
Listen to your mother's advice and change your attitude. If you change your attitude, you might gain something different. "
"What can I gain? I don't expect him to be nice to me." Liu Guixian didn't think it was impossible for him to be sincere to her.
...
"Why are you at home?" After returning from the cemetery, Mr. Deng went straight home. He wanted to catch up on some sleep and make some bone soup for his son. As soon as he entered the door, he saw his wife busy in the kitchen.
"My sister-in-law called me this morning and said my mother was sick. I took a leave and went to see her. I just came back." Liu Guixian pretended to be unaware of this and said lightly.
"Is it serious? Have you been to the hospital?"
"It's the same old problem. I took some medicine and it's fine."
"Okay, I'll take you back to see her this Sunday. It's only a little after 10 o'clock, what are you going to do next?"
"Hmph, what do you think?" Mother Deng pointed at the big bones that were not in the pot with a cold face and said unhappily.
When Mr. Deng saw this, he laughed and put the things he had just bought in the kitchen. "I know my wife loves me. Haha..."
"Who cares about you? I just don't want outsiders to gossip about you."
"Okay, I'll stop them from gossiping. Wife, you go ahead and do it. We'll have this for lunch. I'll take a nap first."
"Aren't you going to the hospital at noon?"
Deng's father said with a smile, "At noon, Ying Han brought lunch to Deng Chen, so I came back tactfully."
"You're such a fool! It's obvious that Chief Ying's wife doesn't want to be with you two, and you're still messing around. Be careful if the Yings find out that you're fooling their daughter, they'll be really angry with you."
"What do you mean by tinkering? This time, Commander Ying and his wife couldn't be more grateful to Xiaochen. Yesterday, they watched over Deng Chen until he woke up. Commander Ying's wife personally cooked and brought him a meal. This morning, Ying Han brought another meal."
"So all my work was in vain?"
"It's not in vain, it's not in vain. Let's go and give it to Xiaochen tonight. He's sure I'll be very happy."
Liu Guixian didn't believe Deng Guoming's nonsense. Deng Chen was lucky enough to give her a look. "By the way, would the Ying family really agree?"
"It's hard to say, but I think if the two children like each other, it will work out."
