Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

He genuinely didn't think there was anything wrong with it; he had worked over 70 hours straight in the steel rolling mill before, it wasn't like he hadn't done it before.

Although I'm getting older, I'm still in great spirits.

A normal person definitely couldn't do it, but he had something to protect him!

Yang Jianguo arrived at the office just before the meeting and had a heated discussion with the engineers.

Regarding the projects at the college, the allocation and adjustment of resources upon return.

How do we prioritize tasks? Are all tasks valuable?

They also exchanged opinions and reported on the progress of projects currently supported by the research institute.

Overall, people are quite positive about this.

After all, it's an Academy of Sciences!

Chapter 445 A Vegetative State Patient: My Spouse is Still the Most Reliable

Despite holding a meeting for four hours straight, Yang Jianguo remained full of energy.

Having arranged all the recent work, Yang Jianguo felt relieved and was in a good mood.

For the next few days, the Yan family stayed at the hospital.

During that time, he returned from liberation and brought some clothes and other items, during which he talked about the situation.

Old Yan is still unconscious; the doctor's assessment is 'uncertain.'

At such an advanced age, and with direct damage to brain nerves.

Whether he will wake up or not, no one can guarantee it.

"What are your plans, siblings and I?" Yang Jianguo asked.

"...I don't know, we're still discussing it." Yan Jiefang looked troubled; he didn't know what to do.

"By the way, Brother Jianguo, we'll chip in and pay you back for the surgery in a couple of days."

"No rush, let's settle the people in first."

"Hmm..." Yan Jiefang's eyes were heavy as he nodded and said, "If he really doesn't wake up, we'll have to bring him back and take turns caring for him."

This is the most reasonable solution: bring the person back to the compound and have them cared for in shifts.

Or they can be taken to different households, and each person can take care of the family for a period of time.

However, going back and forth between different places is definitely troublesome.

Furthermore, Yan Jiekuang's house was too small to accommodate everyone, and Yan Jiedi was a daughter who, even after getting married, still had a man in the house.

It would definitely be inconvenient to bring my parents over.

In the end, the burden still fell on the three sons.

Life was barely getting by when this burden suddenly came along; it would be a lie to say I didn't have some thoughts about it.

But no matter what ideas he had, his father lay unconscious in bed.

Are we really just going to abandon this and let people say what they think?!

"Okay, just let me know if you need to use it." Yang Jianguo patted his arm without saying anything more.

This is such a big deal; no amount of comforting will make me feel better.

However, compared to what lies ahead, the present is nothing.

If he doesn't wake up, things will get really complicated later!

"Jianguo, you've just returned from liberation?" Shazhu, who had been busy inside, came out wearing an apron.

"Okay, I'm coming back to get some things." Yang Jianguo nodded.

Seeing that no one was in the yard, Sha Zhu sighed and said, "Tell me, isn't this retribution?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Yang Jianguo said, "Old Yan was just a bit stingy, how did it become a matter of retribution?"

Sha Zhu thought about it and realized he was right. He slapped his mouth twice with an embarrassed expression and said, "It's my fault, it's my fault. Look, my mouth has run away again."

"Once they get back, there will be a lot more trouble to come!" Yang Jianguo sighed, shook his head, and went back into the house.

Three days later, the hospital sent a car to bring the person back.

Old Man Yan's brain is still active, but the response is very weak. Whether he can wake up or not depends on God's will.

The hospital didn't have any good solutions, so they discharged them.

The family, with bags and packages, including their son, daughter-in-law, daughter, and son-in-law, were all gathered around.

Not one was left out.

"Slow down, slow down, watch your head."

"Raise it higher on the left."

"Give me a hand, don't bump your head."

The noisy procession led the person into the house, and Aunt Yan rushed ahead to make the bed first.

The cotton mattress, pillow, and quilt were all arranged neatly before the person was placed on them.

"Alright, alright, thank you everyone." Yan Jiecheng greeted the medical staff who had helped and saw them all to the door.

All the thanks were just words; they didn't even offer a cigarette or a glass of water.

Seeing that there was nothing to gain, they didn't linger and got on the bus.

"This guy is really stingy." The muttering reached Yan Jiecheng's ears, but he pretended not to hear it.

They should have returned it in the first place; it's not like they didn't pay for it.

Why should I offer you cigarettes or pour you water?

"Jiecheng, did your dad send it back?"

Aunt Liu, who was cooking at home, heard the noise and went out to check.

"Hey, Aunt Liu, you're back." Yan Jiecheng nodded.

Aunt Liu thought for a moment and said, "Well, you must be busy since you just got back. Do you want me to cook some food and send it over?"

"Then I'll trouble you, Aunt Liu. We don't have time to make it right now!" Yan Jiecheng didn't stand on ceremony. Why refuse when there was finally a chance to use it?

"...Okay, I'll call you when it's ready." Aunt Liu turned and went back into the house with an embarrassed expression.

This lack of politeness really bothered her.

Yan Jiecheng went back to his room happily.

"Don't bother tonight, Aunt Liu said she's prepared dinner and will bring it over."

"That's great, I'm exhausted." Yan Jiekuang replied, sitting lazily in his chair.

Yan Jiedi kept glancing at her watch, saying, "It's getting late, I have things to do, Mom, I'll come another day."

"No, Jie Di, aren't you going to eat before you leave?" Aunt Yan said, a little reluctant.

She's in a vulnerable position right now, and that's when she needs someone to be with her.

My son can handle it, but there are some things I can talk about with my daughter.

They only have one daughter, and she's leaving after only a short while.

"I'm really too late, I'll come again tomorrow," Yan Jiedi said, and then she left.

She had already arranged with her husband that she would be going to his parents' house tonight.

If we delay any longer, it will be too late, and then we'll be blamed again. His two older sisters are not easy to deal with.

If it weren't for this major incident at home, Yan Jiedi probably wouldn't have shown her face even now.

If you don't even tell your parents you're getting married, what can you expect from them?

The only good thing about Lao Yan's situation is that he got his son and daughter back by his side.

At least with this incident, neither side has to back down.

Once the steps are properly laid, everyone can get down.

"Okay, then slow down." Seeing her daughter rush out of the yard without looking back.

Aunt Yan felt a chill in her heart; after all, her daughter was married off.

Even though her father is like this, she acts like nothing's wrong.

Looking back, I saw that the three sons had each found a place to sit and were chatting casually about everyday matters.

The more Aunt Yan thought about it, the more upset she became. She sat down by the bed and looked at her husband.

I thought to myself, 'How could I have been so foolish! In my old age, my spouse is the most reliable person.'

No matter how much you regret it, it's still painful.

Life goes on, even for this generation that has weathered many storms.

This little thing can't break Aunt Yan; she has to keep going and get through the day.

Putting everything else aside, her bedridden husband is still counting on her!

A sudden disaster changed the Yan family's life and also changed Aunt Yan's mindset.

All the previous complaints and dissatisfaction were replaced by the 'good points' of the past.

All I can think of is that Old Man Yan devoted his whole life to this family, working tirelessly and worrying about everything.

"Old Yan, you mustn't abandon me. You've worked so hard all your life, and you haven't even had a chance to enjoy your retirement yet!"

The sobbing made the three sons, who were chatting idly in the room, lower their heads.

A strange sadness welled up inside me, and I couldn't stop it.

Chapter 446 Prolonged Illness Reveals the Indispensability of Filial Piety; Idea

Summer is just around the corner, and things are finally settling down for the Yan family.

With four children, each family takes care of the other for a week, making it a full month in total.

Where's the money?!

The school processed my retirement, which saved me some trouble.

Each family gives them an additional 7 yuan per month, which adds up to more than 70 yuan.

The elderly couple had enough to cover their expenses and weren't short of money.

If anyone has something to do, please let us know in advance so we can arrange a replacement.

It's fortunate that I have so many children; the four of them have managed to switch places.

With her children by her side, Aunt Yan's heart wasn't so heavy, and she even felt a little fortunate at times.

If Old Yan hadn't been bedridden, his children wouldn't have all come back without holding grudges.

"Old Yan, tell me, are you enjoying happiness or suffering now?"

Yan Jiefang helped his father turn to the side, and Aunt Yan used a towel to wipe him down and let him air out.

When someone is sick in bed, you have to keep turning them over, washing and cleaning them, and you also have to massage them to help them move their muscles and bones.

Otherwise, if the muscles atrophy, the body will be ruined.

In short, it takes several hours to get things done every day, and there's never a moment of rest.

At first, I thought he was suffering, but as time went on, I started to think he was enjoying it.

Lying in bed, I am free from worries, and I don't have to worry about whether my work is going well or whether I can get through the day.

Carefree and worry-free, you don't have to worry about anything.

They are waited on hand and foot all day long, and even receive massages.

I pressed for hours on end, and my fingers became thick from all the pressing.
