Siheyuan: Fighting against Japanese Aggression in Beijing

At the side, Liu Haizhong felt a warm current flowing through his heart when he heard his two sons' words. He did not expect that his two sons would be so filial, so he said with relief, "Guangtian, Guangfu, I am very relieved that you can think this way. After all, I have not raised you in vain."

"Dad, what you said is true. Although you often beat us when we were young, we always remember all the kindness you have shown us during this period." Liu Guangtian said.

"That's right, you were right to beat us when we were little. We never blamed you. That's what we call love leads to blame, right, brother?"

"That's right," Liu Guangtian said, "Dad, ask the third daughter-in-law to accompany you and mom. We will go out and borrow money. Every penny we can lend is a penny."

"Okay, you guys just do your best, but we still have the boss!" Liu Haizhong said, "I just gave him 5,000 a while ago, plus I also gave him 5,000 last month, he should have enough money. Go ask him to come over tomorrow and ask him to pay the medical expenses first, and we can talk about the rest later."

Hearing Liu Haizhong say this, the four people were filled with hatred! Especially the three who knew about it, the few feelings of guilt they had just felt disappeared completely in an instant.

But Liu Guangfu's wife, who was unaware of the situation, was not happy and immediately shouted, "Dad, did you secretly give money to the eldest brother? And you gave him 10,000 yuan at a time. Aren't you too partial?"

"Haha, Third Brother's wife," Liu Haizhong said awkwardly, "It's not giving, it's borrowing. Doesn't his child want to go to a better school? He wants to use the money to build relationships. It's okay, just ask him to pay it back this time."

"Huh, I knew you were biased,"

"Xiao Qing, what nonsense are you talking about?" Liu Guangfu scolded, "Is it appropriate to say this at this time? My parents are still sick! And my parents have given us a lot. In the past few years, they have given us more than our salary every month. Don't lie with your eyes open."

"Hmph!" Zhao Xiaoqing glared at Liu Guangfu and lowered her head.

She lowered her head and thought about it. She felt that something was wrong with Liu Guangfu today, and also with the second brother and his wife.

"Dad, let's go get the money first, and then come over with my eldest brother tomorrow. Is that okay with you?"

"Okay, you go."

"Xiaoqing, take good care of dad. Your sister-in-law will come to take over for you later. Let's go eat something first. We haven't eaten all day." Liu Guangtian said.

"I know, one by one, I took the wrong medicine. Hurry up, the child is still at home! He can't leave me."

……

In this way, the three of them soon arrived outside the hospital. As soon as they reached a place where no one was around, Liu Guangfu asked, "Sister-in-law, have you hidden the money?"

"How can you not hide it?" Li Haiyan said with a smile, "You two brothers did a good job this time. Did you listen to what Dad said just now? He gave the eldest brother 10,000 yuan, and that's what he said. I don't know how much more he didn't say? They deserved it. They deserved to die in the hospital."

"Wife, you must hide the money well, and don't tell anyone except the three of us, understand?"

"I know. I'll listen to you."

"Brother, what should we do next? We didn't expect them to be hospitalized?" Liu Guangfu asked.

"What else can we do? For safety's sake, we two should be filial sons for a while and serve them by their bedside," Liu Guangtian said with a smile, "and by the way, let's let the old couple see what kind of person Liu Guangqi is."

"Hey, brother, I think so too," Liu Guangfu said, "When we go to see him tomorrow, don't ask him for money or tell him that the money is lost, otherwise he won't go to the hospital."

"Don't I know this?" Liu Guangtian said, "Let's go find a restaurant and have a good meal to celebrate."

"Okay, I'll treat you today," Liu Guangfu said generously.

……

Early the next morning, the Liu Guangtian brothers blocked Liu Guangqi at the door when he was about to go to work.

"Guangtian Guangfu, why are you here?"

"Brother, our parents are in the hospital. We are here to inform you and go see them together."

"Hospitalized?" Liu Guangqi asked in confusion, "Two of them together?"

"Yes! Dad's blood pressure is a little high, and so is Mom's. It may be because they have been eating too well in recent years, so they went to the hospital for a few days to recuperate."

"Hey, I was so scared, I thought something was wrong!" Liu Guangqi said, "But I still have to go to work."

"Brother, I'm here to invite you on Dad's orders, you can't not go," Liu Guangtian lied, "Dad said he's going to divide the money today! If you don't go, there's no way to divide the money!"

"Share the money?" Liu Guangqi asked excitedly, "You guys made a lot of money during this period?"

"Not this time, but the money we made before. We haven't divided it yet. Dad said we won't do this business anymore after the division. It's not easy to do business now anyway."

"Okay, let's go there now."

"Not going to work?" Liu Guangtian said contemptuously.

"Haha, how can I not visit my parents when they are in the hospital? I can just take some time off when the time comes. I am a leader anyway, no one will bother me."

……

An hour later, at the hospital, Liu Haizhong finally saw his three sons. When he saw the eldest son, he felt like his backbone had arrived. "Guangqi, you're finally here."

"Dad, are you okay?" Liu Guangqi hurried to the bedside. "I was scared to death. Why didn't you come to see me yesterday? Do you still treat me as your son? I'm telling you, don't do this again in the future."

"It happened suddenly yesterday and I didn't have time to inform you," Liu Haizhong said with a smile, "Do you know everything?"

"I know, but why would you just stop doing such a good business?"

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. It's just our bad luck. Don't blame your two younger brothers. They didn't do it on purpose." Liu Haizhong sighed.

"Dad, I don't blame them. It's not their fault that this business is not doing well," Liu Guangqi said. "But you can stop doing this business, but you still have to find other businesses. Now is a good time to do business. You can't waste this good opportunity of reform and opening up."

Hearing Liu Guangqi's words, the two brothers were full of contempt, especially Liu Guangtian, who cursed in his heart, "Humph, you bastard, you have a beautiful idea, we fought hard for you to get what you have, and there will be no such opportunity in the future, so you can slowly dream of your great future!"
