Hua Hua was lost, the son didn’t care, anyway it wasn’t his own grandchild, taken away by the real grandparents and that’s that.
To save the i Family’s reputation and to maintain the lie, they said the child got an acute illness, didn’t survive the night, and couldn’t be saved.
To make it seem complete, Old Mrs. i had soone sell a small coffin and put the child’s clothes inside it. Hastily, they found a place to bury it.
Generally, when a child dies at ho, they can’t remain overnight, and they’re buried the sa day. Old Mrs. i didn’t want the child to be buried in the ancestral grave, so she found a desolate grave mound to bury him.
The news that the i Family’s little grandson died was known in the courtyard in the morning, and by the afternoon, the child was already buried, with the helpers all being soldiers from i Shuping’s unit.
No one knew exactly what illness the child had or why he suddenly died.
However, a few days ago when Xie Lingzhi was burning the child’s clothes in the courtyard, it was said that the child died from an infectious disease, which gave the i Family a good reason in people’s eyes, leaving many sighing with regret, as Hua Hua was not only smart but also famously well-behaved.
All of a sudden, he was just gone, and anyone would have trouble accepting that. So these days, the i Family kept their doors closed to visitors.
.....
This news reached Lin Wan and Han Yi, leaving them speechless; the people of the i Family are indeed peculiar, able to co up with such things.
Anyway, when Hua Hua was buried, they didn’t go over there, and they weren’t notified either.
"What sort of people are these, able to do such a thing, cursing the child alive," Shen Qing couldn’t stand the i Family people; having been in the Capital City for so many days, she figured out that this i Family was ten thousand tis more vicious than her mother-in-law; her mother-in-law only liked money, but these people would cost lives.
"Exactly, what harm would it do if they spoke the truth, it won’t cost them a pound of flesh. But to protect their unworthy reputation, they deceived the world. There truly are all kinds of people; this ti we’ve witnessed it first hand. I tell you, after Xiao Wan and Xiao Yi return to Z City, I definitely won’t let them visit the i Family often."
"You’re right, indeed don’t let them co here. It’s such a ss, I’m afraid it might infect them."
"Yes."
The i Family’s actions destroyed their worldview. Now, aside from i Shuqing and Liang Qian, they basically refuse others from the i Family at their door, even when i Shuping cos, they don’t let him in.
However, these days i Shuping didn’t have ti to co due to his son’s affair.
Mr. i is hospitalized, Liang Hongi prepared so gifts in advance for Han Yi, suggesting he take a free afternoon to visit the old residence and have a look. Their i Family might lack decorum, but it doesn’t an they don’t understand these matters.
Everything that should be done they did impeccably, letting Mr. i realize that the grandson he didn’t value showed up at the ti when he needed care the most.
Much better than the grandson who only spoke empty words.
In fact, when Han Yi took gifts to see Mr. i, Mr. i was also moved in his heart.
While he was sick, it was his second daughter-in-law who took care of him; upon returning ho, it was the grandson he originally wanted to use as a tool who ca to see him.
His eldest son was a rough man who only cared about big matters and couldn’t notice the small things. After his calligraphy and paintings were lost, the eldest son-in-law wasn’t as attentive to the old couple, though he couldn’t speak, he was clear in his heart.
He now realized that all these years were lived in vain; the daughter-in-law they didn’t value turned out to be far more filial than the eldest daughter-in-law. If soday they lay in bed needing care, certainly, it wouldn’t be the eldest daughter-in-law at the bedside.
And the grandson he valued the most, every action was geared towards ruining his own future. After quarreling fiercely with his father, he never stepped into this house again.
Since he got sick, Han Yi was still the first to co see him; he couldn’t remain unmoved.
Old Mrs. i wanted to see their great-grandson, Han Xingyang, who was truly the first great-grandson of the i Family in the real sense. Since birth, they hadn’t seen what the child looked like.
However, this request was rejected by Han Yi, saying that Lin Wan still hadn’t finished her postpartum confinent so naturally she couldn’t co to the old residence. The two seniors were of advanced age and travel was inconvenient; Han Yi promised that once the full month had passed, they would bring the child over for a visit.
Old Mrs. i listened and almost brought tears to her eyes, knowing they’ll be able to see the child.
