"Yes, old man, you don’t just have two sons now, you have three. Don’t worry about the small matter of the house being robbed, my two elder brothers and I will handle it for you. You can just focus on recovering from your illness. Oh... by the way, I forgot to tell you, your wife, the old lady, got scared into illness by you, a serious lung issue, so severe that she can’t get out of bed this ti."
"Shuqing, what’s wrong with your mom?" As expected, Chen Haichang’s words made Mr. i tense.
i Shuqing helplessly glanced at Chen Haichang, signaling him not to speak recklessly.
"Dad, mom’s fine, she’s doing well, you don’t have to worry."
The more i Shuqing said this, the more Mr. i felt sothing was wrong. He wanted to go and see his wife, but unfortunately, he couldn’t get out of bed because of his leg.
"Dad, I assure you, mom’s fine, just rest well and try to recover in the next couple of days." i Shuqing finished speaking and helplessly glanced at Chen Haichang, who seed to find opportunities to disrupt the peace of the i Family.
After leaving the ward, i Shuqing took Chen Haichang to a corner in the hallway and said, "Haichang, can you stop stirring things up recently? No matter their faults, they are blood relatives, after all. You shouldn’t push things to mutual destruction."
"You’re wrong, second brother. In my ga against the old man, I’ve always had the upper hand. Where’s the mutual destruction?" Chen Haichang said indifferently.
"As far as I know, you’re alone now, apart from us, the Chen Family doesn’t have many people left, right? If you really want to go against the i Family, you could end up being completely isolated. Haichang, you’re still young. Even though I’m your elder brother, there’s a generational gap between us. If not for our relation, you and Junzi, Xiao Yi, should be considered in the sa generation. I see you get along well with them. You still don’t understand the importance of family to a person. It’s true, during his youth, he was a bastard, made many mistakes, but he’s still my father. How could we just watch him being stooged around by you? If you accept as your brother, have a peaceful reunion in the Capital City this year. This year is the most complete for our family; everyone is here. In fact, you and Xiao Yi are similar, holding your grievances inside. Compared to Xiao Yi, perhaps you even hold a bit more hatred. But sotis, life is like this; so things are undeniable no matter how much you wish to escape them, blood ties exist." i Shuqing said, patting Chen Haichang’s shoulder, aningfully advising, "Take your brother’s advice; if you really anger him to death now, what would others think of you?"
Chen Haichang could feel that this second brother was genuinely considering his well-being, but there were certain things he simply didn’t care about. He felt they lived in different worlds and what mattered to him might not matter to others. Therefore, so things could never compromise.
For the sake of the usual kindness shown by the i Family, Chen Haichang didn’t argue, keeping a cold face as he turned and left.
Leaving i Shuqing alone, helplessly shaking his head.
The old man said this was Chen Haichang’s doing, but i Shuqing didn’t quite agree. If Chen Haichang wanted these things, he would ask the old man outright; he wouldn’t use such a clumsy thod.
Moreover, last night, Chen Haichang was in the hospital all along during that tifra.

After eating, the family of three went out to buy groceries, stocking up on tens of kilograms of Chinese cabbage and radishes. At this ti in winter, there really aren’t many vegetables, but in a few years, when logistics improve, so vegetables from the south will co, and there will be more varieties.
Moreover, it’s not far from New Year, they need to start preparing so New Year goods.
Seeing that Han Yi was rarely here today, they made a phone call to ho, and specially called Grandma too.
Grandma was already discharged, her leg had regained sensation but lacked strength, making it hard to sustain even a few steps, so now she stayed in bed most of the ti, rarely walking around.
These days, she’s been living in the old house, mostly looked after by Shen Rong, with her eldest and second aunt, as well as her mother-in-law, taking turns caring for her. This winter passed quite well.
Han Yi specially bought two fish, simred them into tofu fish soup all afternoon, by three or four in the afternoon, he along with Little Star and Lin Wan went to the hospital.
