"Ahem... Tell me quickly, what's going on?" Grandpa Lei's younger brother was so thin that he looked like he could be blown down by a gust of wind.
"Dad, let me pour you a glass of water."
"Hurry up and tell me!" The old man looked at his daughter anxiously.
Lei Xiaoxue had been afraid of her father since she was a child. Seeing the old man's face turn pale, she felt a little scared. "I... I went to see my uncle today with a box of mung bean cakes. I heard that my uncle and his family had gone to their grandson's house. I was surprised and went to look for him."
"My uncle and my younger brothers and sisters were all there, so I didn't dare to say anything rash. I just chatted for a few minutes and then came back."
"You saw the child, is it true? Could he be pretending again?" The old lady was a little doubtful. Over the years, there had been so many true and false things happening.
If you ask her, why bother with that? It would be better to adopt a child from his family as soon as possible.
If my eldest uncle really passed away later, there would be no one to inherit this huge family business.
In recent years, my eldest brother's health has been getting worse year by year, and he has spent a lot of time recuperating in a nursing home.
A nephew's grandson is also a grandson, they are all children of the Lei family, what's the difference?
Don't wait until the people are gone and the place is empty, then everything will be too late.
"I don't know, but it seems different this time around between my uncle and my younger siblings, and ah... I think that kid is not ordinary either."
"Guess what happened when I went there?"
"What's wrong? Oh, why don't you tell me?" The old lady was very anxious.
"You know the Lu family's courtyard, right? How many people care about it? Who would have thought that my uncle's grandson lives there?"
"Impossible! Could it be that your uncle bought it?" the old lady asked doubtfully.
"This old thing, your eldest brother wanted to buy a house, but he said all his money was used to look for his grandson, and he had no money left, so he just gave him a few dollars and sent him away." The old lady gritted her teeth, her eyes full of resentment.
"I thought so at the time, but my uncle said that his grandson's wife was capable and this house was a benefit of the job. It seemed that the woman was transferred to work in a garment factory in Beijing. They were able to recognize each other because of the house." Lei Xiaoxue told her parents everything she had heard, hoping they would give her some advice.
"Dad, Mom, what should we do?"
She knew that his father had always wanted the child of his eldest brother or younger brother to be adopted by Xiaotian and his wife, but she didn't want her own son to be adopted.
Who wouldn’t want to get the beauty here?
The old man narrowed his eyes and said, "Don't act rashly."
I've waited for so many years, a little time won't hurt.
The old man seemed to be lost in memories...
The baby's crying echoed in his mind, instantly bringing him back to twenty-six years ago.
A man holding a baby passed by him. Looking at the child who seemed familiar, he was stunned for a moment.
Then, wailing was heard in the ward.
He ran over and saw his sister-in-law and niece-in-law crying. Someone had taken the child away.
At this moment, he realized that the man just now was the murderer of Bao Qian's nephew, and he chased after him.
But when he was about to catch up, he suddenly stopped. When he came to his senses, the murderer had already boarded the train and escaped.
What flashed through his mind at that time were the scenes of the two brothers getting along with each other from childhood to adulthood.
His eldest brother is the hope of the family. His mother puts everything on him. Even the names given to them are so obvious. The eldest brother is called Lei Hu and he is called Lei Ergou.
My parents often say that a humble name is not enough to support a child, but why is he not called Lei Hu, and why is my eldest brother's name so majestic.
As far as he can remember, the children in the village always bullied him, forcing him to crawl and bark like a dog. If he refused, they would gang up on him and beat him.
He could only crawl on the ground in humiliation, barking like a dog, woof woof, again and again.
At this moment, he envied his elder brother, but was also jealous of him.
The family’s food, clothing, and even schooling all depend on the eldest brother.
From childhood to adulthood, he always picked up his elder brother's clothes to wear, and when eating, he would give all the dry food to his elder brother, leaving only the rice with thin soup.
Now, the eldest brother's family is small, with only Xiaotian as his son. Now his only grandson has been stolen. He can't help but wonder if this is God's punishment for him because he has received too much.
If...if this child disappears...
Once an idea is born, it grows wildly.
He went back and did not say that he had seen the child.
The eldest brother collapsed. That was his only grandson. Looking at his painful expression, for some reason, he felt very happy.
He finally has something that can surpass his elder brother.
What does it matter if he is promising? He still has no descendants to inherit his property. In the end, everything he has will be enjoyed by the children of his unsuccessful second brother.
