Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

It's quite beautiful!

After consoling herself for a while, Aunt Yan put down the towel and said, "Alright, turn it over!"

"Look at your mouth, tilt your head a little, don't cover your nose and mouth."

I tilted his head back and made him comfortable.

Yan Jiefang finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat down to rest.

Grandma Yan lay on her side with one leg dangling on the bed, massaging, rubbing, and kneading her husband with her hands!

He kept muttering about the past.

Yan Jiefang was getting impatient; it was the same old story being repeated over and over again.

"Mom, I'm just going to catch my breath in the yard and take a walk."

As Yan Jiefang finished speaking, he went out. As Aunt Yan watched his retreating figure, her words changed.

"Your good son, I don't know how many more days I can count on."

"Old Yan, you'd better get better soon, or I'll really have no hope for the future!"

As the saying goes, "No filial piety remains at the bedside of a chronically ill parent," and Aunt Yan had witnessed the changes in her children all too well.

From initial worry to later getting used to it, and now to impatience.

I'm afraid that in another month or so, they'll all have to find excuses not to come.

Squatting in front of the door, Yan Jiefang smoked a cigarette with some irritation.

It wasn't that he didn't care about his parents; it was just that there was no hope for them anymore.

Lying in bed year after year, month after month, requiring a week's worth of care each month, doesn't sound tiring.

Once you actually get into trouble, you'll realize how big the problem is; it's pure torture.

I can't take care of my family, and I also have to deal with criticism and complaints at work.

There was an opportunity, and we could have tried to seize it.

Now, you can rest.

This not only wasted time, but also completely disrupted all plans and goals.

Before liberation, I was thinking of using my spare time to do some business.

Now, well, let alone buying and selling.

He's barely able to do his job properly, and his wife is always arguing with him.

They said he only cared about his parents and completely neglected his own family.

At home, with the kids, everything is left to her.

We didn't see any money, we lost our chance for advancement, and the deal we discussed earlier was out of the question.

He's been making such a fuss every day, it's driving him crazy.

"Hey, Liberation." Pushing the cart through the door, Sha Zhu grinned and said, "It's your turn this week."

Yan Jiefang raised his eyelids slightly and gave a lukewarm "hmm".

Seeing his expression, Sha Zhu wasn't in a hurry to leave.

I propped my bicycle up under the eaves, squatted down next to him, and took out a cigarette: "Give me one."

Yan Jiefang took a cigarette and lit it with the cigarette butt between his fingers.

Thud, thud, whoosh~

"What's wrong? Are you worried?"

Yan Jiefang sighed and exhaled smoke, "Well, it's not that I'm annoyed, it's just... never mind, I won't talk about it anymore."

He didn't know how to explain it; things were truly not right from the left or right.

Yan Jiefang experienced firsthand the frustration of Pigsy looking in the mirror.

"Hey, tell me!" Sha Zhu nudged him with his elbow and said, "Keep it to yourself, or you'll hurt yourself."

"I can't care about anything else anymore, do you understand?"

Yan Jiefang spread his hands and couldn't help but mutter, "The factory director has talked to me several times, telling me to find a solution as soon as possible."

"If this continues, I won't be able to keep earning my salary like this."

"Home... never mind, let's not talk about home." Yan Jiefang took a couple of big puffs, threw away his cigarette, and said, "I need to discuss this with my brother, Jie Kuang, and Jie Di."

Sha Zhu's eyes lit up, and he gave him an idea: "Why don't you guys chip in and hire someone?"

Hiring people? Hey, that's one way to do it.

Yan Jiefang's eyes lit up; he really felt it could work. "Brother Zhu, keep an eye on things for me. I'm going outside to make a phone call."

"Okay, then hurry up." Sha Zhu nodded in agreement.

Yang Jianguo was pushing his bicycle, about to enter the house, when the big black rat darted past him with a "whoosh": "Brother Jianguo."

"Liberation?" Yang Jianguo glanced into the courtyard. "Zhuzi, is that Liberation?"

"Who else but him could have called Jie Cheng and the others?"

"Why are you calling? What's wrong?"

Yang Jianguo thought that something new had happened to Lao Yan, but he understood what was going on after Sha Zhu explained.

I had previously told Yingzi that I didn't know how long things would be peaceful.

This is really weird, you can't talk about it.

"We're all outsiders, so it's only right that we lend a hand occasionally. In the end, it depends on what the guys want."

Zhu Zi muttered to himself, having no intention of helping someone in their old age.

He was never a pushover to begin with, and he's even less likely to be now.

His own wife and two sons are enough for him to handle.

And there's also Old Yi and his wife!

And if you add Old Yan along, hey~

Please spare me!

"That is."

Yang Jianguo nodded in agreement, saying that it was ultimately a family matter for the Yan family.

No one would invite a father back to their family for no reason.

Besides, all four of their children are still alive!

After a short while, Yan Jiefang returned.

Sha Zhu looked up and asked, "How was it?"

Yan Jiefang grinned, and you could tell from his expression that it was a success.

The brothers had been harboring resentment for a while, but they kept quiet about it.

Nobody wants to be the unfilial son.

"It's settled. My brother said he'll be home tomorrow, and we'll discuss it with my mom together."

"What are you discussing?" After massaging her husband's body, Aunt Yan came to ask Yan Jiecheng to help her turn him over.

Before even leaving the house, I heard him say he wanted to discuss it with me, and my heart skipped a beat.

Could she have actually guessed correctly?

Chapter 447 Uproar, a Long-Term Plan

The next day, all six members of the Yan family arrived.

Five people sat at a round table, while one person lay flat on the bed.

Aunt Yan hasn't given her husband a massage yet today; she's really not in the mood.

These three rascals want to dump her on outsiders; none of them want to stay here anymore.

Aunt Yan felt a tightness in her chest and was very upset!

"Mom, please listen to me."

As the eldest son, Yan Jiecheng first explained the situation to his mother.

There's nothing to hide now; all the past difficulties are laid bare.

The three siblings chimed in, each trying to make themselves sound pitiful enough.

"Take me for example, they deducted 13 yuan from my paycheck last month. What couldn't we do with that money?"

"Besides, with this time we can start our own business and make money, we can send my dad to that nursing home later."

In his excitement, Yan Jiecheng blurted out everything.

Upon hearing the word "nursing home," Aunt Yan jumped up: "What did you say?"

Look at her, glaring at me, as if she wanted to slap herself twice.

Yan Jiecheng stopped pretending and said through gritted teeth, "I said, once you make money, send me to a nursing home that specializes in taking care of the elderly."

“There are people there to take care of my dad, and the environment is okay. Most of the residents are elderly, and there are also some government officials. It’s good for you people of the same age to chat together.”

Aunt Yan was trembling with anger. As soon as he finished speaking, she started yelling, "Bullshit! I think you guys are just not going to take care of me and your dad."

“They think we’re too old and useless, and now that they’re capable, they’re planning to kick us out.”

Aunt Yan was furious; she had previously thought her husband was wrong.

That's right, that's right!

They were the ones who were wrong; these are four ungrateful wretches.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault!"

Aunt Yan sat down and slapped herself in the face: "I have no shame. How could I have given birth to so many ungrateful children?"

"Oh my God, please open your eyes and look!"

The commotion of crying and wailing immediately reached the courtyard.

When Yan Jiedi saw her mother's trick, her head was buzzing; she had feared this would be the outcome.

"Boss, you've got a really sharp tongue." Yan Jiedi glared at him, annoyed.

Yan Jiecheng felt wronged; this was clearly a good thing, so why was he called an ingrate?

After my younger sister said that, I felt even worse.

"What's wrong? It's a fact. Didn't the three of you agree to send Mom and Dad to a nursing home?"

Yan Jiecheng was going all out; since he already knew everything, he was going to sell everything out to them.

Why am I the only one getting scolded here? None of them are good people.

Ok!

This made things even more lively. The loud and boisterous Aunt Yan walked outside, saying, "Everyone, come and see! Look at this! I can't live like this anymore!"

Inside the house, Aunt Liu, who had just arrived home and was resting but hadn't had time to cook yet, looked speechless.

Why is this happening again? Can't things just calm down for a couple of days so people can live their lives in peace?

"Don't go, let her make a fuss." Da Liu, lying on the bed, looked annoyed.

They're always making a racket, it's never going to end.

Of the whole neighborhood, only your family has something going on. Oh, only your family's business is a problem.

I've been bedridden for over 20 years, but I haven't cried out or threatened to die, nor have I constantly cried out, "I can't go on living."

ill!

Aunt Liu sighed and replied, "We live across the street, how can I pretend I didn't hear you?"
