It’s actually better if he’s dead, it ends everything. But if he ends up as a fool, that would really burden the family for a lifeti!
Even if one takes a step back and he recovers, if he lacks any skills and has taken up "gambling", how is that different from being a curse?
She may not be educated, but she knows how harmful soone can be once caught up in gambling... Just like her father, who was a decent person initially, but once he got pulled into a gambling den, he slowly fell into it, losing the family’s modest savings to the point where even mice wouldn’t visit their ho, and even ended up losing their house to creditors.
But that wasn’t enough, seeing that she was beautiful, he ignored her mother’s protests and sold her into a brothel... If she hadn’t risked everything to escape from that brothel and luckily ran into her family’s elder, who was around his thirties or forties at the ti on the street, begging him to buy her, she surely wouldn’t have escaped that hellhole.
Gambling destroys a family. She truly didn’t expect her son, Yaozong, to get involved with "gambling", and by the ti she found out, the rascal was already deeply imrsed in it.
When the family couldn’t give him money, he would borrow from others outside...
In short, no matter how much she loves her son, who is like a piece of her own flesh, she can’t just watch as he ruins her beloved grandson!
Sifting through her thoughts, Huli looked at Fang Youning with more determination and said, "Your grandpa and I won’t go back to the country. If your maternal family is willing to help you, you can go back yourself, as for your dad, with your grandpa and here, even if we have to starve, we won’t let him go hungry!"
"Grandma..."
Fang Youning’s eyes were moist. "How about I plead with the Master, even if it ans spending my whole life as a servant by his side, I’m willing, as long as he can let us return to the manor and give our family a place to shelter from the storm."
Upon hearing this, Huli shook her head, "It’s no use... You don’t know how much the Master dotes on Young Master Boya. Regarding this incident... the Master is definitely enraged. Just like your grandpa said, the fact that he didn’t end us all along with the Second Master’s family is already a rcy. Otherwise, none of us would be alive!"
Fang Youning wanted to say that sotis living is more torturous than dying, just like the life they are leading now.
The sound of footsteps ca from outside the door.
"This is a fever reducer, give it to Yaozong." Fang Huai walked into the room, handed the fever reducer he held to Huli, and then said, "I’ll go out tomorrow to see if I can find so old connections to help us buy tickets back to the country. If we can manage it, let’s go back."
Huli was stunned for a mont upon hearing this. She said, "With how things are now... Are you sure soone will help us?"
"Let’s give it a try!" Fang Huai said as he sat on a broken stool nearby, eyes lowered, lost in his thoughts.
Fang Youning walked up to Huli at this ti, "Grandma, let do it. I’ll feed my dad the dicine."
"You support your dad, and grandma will feed him."
Huli stood up and returned to the bedside with Fang Youning.
"The water temperature is just right."
Seeing Huli pick up the cup from the table, Fang Youning couldn’t help but comnt.
"Grandma knows." Huli nodded, watching her grandson prop her son against his chest, she slipped the fever reducer into Fang Yaozong’s mouth and pried open her son’s lips to pour so warm water in.
Fang Yaozong seed to have the awareness to swallow; his Adam’s apple moved, and the fever reducer was swallowed.
"Do you still rember Sui?"
Suddenly, Fang Huai spoke.
Huli sat back in her original spot, and upon hearing Fang Huai’s words, she replied casually, "How could I not rember? She’s your daughter, quite capable, even managed to attract Young Master Boya’s attention. But why bring her up now?"
