100 ways to trick a boy into going to sleep

Chapter 1105 Twelve Hours

This VIP ward is on the first floor, and you can see a lot of green plants outside the window.

A gentle breeze caressed my face in the early morning, and although there was a slight chill in the air, winter in Lin'an City was never short of vitality.

Every now and then, melodious birdsong could be heard coming from between the branches of the trees.

But... the sounds of the forest in the morning, which usually make people feel soothed and relaxed, now only make people feel irritated.

Shi Qingyuan remained silent.

Now the old man understood everything!

However, he did feel somewhat guilty about sacrificing the child's marriage. But Yuan hadn't explicitly refused before, and besides, the Shi family's assets would eventually be handed over to him. Everyone assumed that this sacrifice was necessary, so the vague guilt in his heart wasn't obvious.

Until yesterday at the dinner table.

He resisted so resolutely.

The old man has weathered many storms in his life. He may be angry, but there's nothing he doesn't understand.

He sighed softly and leaned back slowly.

"Bring the person you like to Grandpa so he can see them."

He wasn't entirely stubborn either.

The Shi family has developed to this point, so it's not necessary for them to form marriage alliances.

However, the Yuan family is not a small or insignificant family. If A-Yuan could marry Yuan Yun, her future would be brighter and smoother. That's all.

He thought that Shi Qingyuan would be overjoyed if he agreed, but to his surprise, the child remained silent once again.

At the same time, even the eldest grandson sitting to the side didn't smile. "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, Grandpa, please take good care of yourself. I know what I'm doing." Shi Qingyuan didn't want to say more, especially since his older brother was also there. He just wanted to change the subject.

"You two are hiding something from me."

"Can you eat now? I'll feed you," Shi Qingsong said as she got up and opened the thermos on the table.

A small bowl of hot congee with preserved egg and lean pork was brought out from inside.

He knew from the familiar smell that his grandmother had gotten up early that morning to cook it herself.

Seeing that even the eldest son was like this, the old man could only sigh softly.

What can he do if the child doesn't want to talk? The child is all grown up and has his own ideas.

However, he didn't want to really have a falling out with his grandsons and create a rift between them, so he said, "The day you really bring back the girl you like, Grandpa won't force you to marry Yuan Yun." Upon hearing this, Shi Qingyuan's hand, which was resting on the edge of the bed, paused slightly.

He glanced at Shi Qingsong subconsciously.

He then said in a low voice, "I understand."

The two are usually busy and rarely see each other. It's rare that they have some free time now that the end of the year is approaching, so they didn't rush to leave and stayed at the hospital with the elderly person for a whole morning.

Around ten o'clock, Shi Qingqing and Shi Qingming also arrived.

However, the atmosphere among the group was strange.

Normally, the third son is the most favored, but starting yesterday, the old man noticed that the two older sons don't talk to him at all.

On the contrary, Qingqing was busy mediating between the two sides.

There are no outsiders here now; those still staying in the ward are all family members.

Grandma Shi gently reminded him, "It's most important for a family to be harmonious, especially for you. If your younger brother does something wrong or acts willfully, as long as he doesn't cross the line, you can teach him a lesson. When we get old, you'll have to help each other out."

Shi Qingsong and Shi Qingyuan both smiled and nodded.

Only Shi Qingming's eyes lit up immediately: "Grandma, tell me, shouldn't the older brother give way to the younger brother?"

"Of course, older brothers and sisters should always give way to their younger brothers and sisters."

Shi Qingming turned to look at Shi Qingsong, his expression one of smug arrogance: "Big brother, I'm talking to you, did you hear me!"
