A table full of dishes was placed in front of the four of them, all of which were Chen Shuying's specialty.
"I didn't expect, I didn't expect that I could still walk like a normal person!"
Before he even moved his chopsticks, Xie Haipeng's tears were already streaming down his face.
He has been disabled for most of his life and has been looked down upon by countless people. I am afraid only those who have experienced it can understand the grievances involved.
"Walking doesn't matter. I'm still waiting for you to recover and we will team up to play football. Then you will have to feed me more balls!"
Ye Jiuzhou patted Xie Haipeng's hand.
After hearing this, Xie Haipeng burst into tears and smiled, saying: "No problem, I'm not bragging. When we go on the field, we can kick eleven opponents."
As soon as football was mentioned, his interest suddenly came up.
In the past, he could only sit in the stands and watch others play, but now he can finally play in person.
Seeing him talking happily and non-stop, Chen Shuying also rolled her eyes and said: "You can regain your health, it's not because of our good son-in-law, let's see what you can do."
"Yeah."
Xie Haipeng picked up the wine bottle and said, "Ye Jiuzhou, let me respect you first. You are really a great benefactor to our Xie family."
"Dad, look at what you said, aren't we a family?"
Ye Jiuzhou quickly stood up with the wine glass in hand. When the wine was full, he drank it all in one gulp.
"Don't just drink and eat. I made your favorite sweet and sour pork ribs."
Chen Shuying personally gave Ye Jiuzhou a piece of ribs.
"Don't worry about eating, drinking is more important!"
"Don't just drink, come and try my craftsmanship!"
…
One of the couple was pouring the wine, the other was picking up the food, and they were about to start a fight.
Seeing that the dishes in Ye Jiuzhou's bowl had been piled into a high tower, but his own rice bowl was empty, Xie Zhiqiu suddenly felt a little aggrieved.
She felt as if she was a superfluous person.
"Mom, I also want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs."
As if to attract attention, Xie Zhiqiu deliberately raised her voice.
"Eat whatever you want. This sweet and sour swing bone is prepared for Ye Jiuzhou. He doesn't have enough to eat. You can eat something else."
Chen Shuying only had eyes for Ye Jiuzhou, and she didn't even look at her own daughter.
"Dad, I can't pick up that dish, please pick it up for me."
Xie Zhiqiu picked up the bowl and looked at Xie Haipeng pitifully.
"Don't you have hands? You can pinch them yourself."
Xie Haipeng rolled his eyes at her, then looked at Ye Jiuzhou, "You're raising goldfish. It's almost done. If it's full, go ahead."
Xie Zhiqiu almost burst into tears, and suddenly felt the urge to run away from home.
It's all because of that bastard Ye Jiuzhou, who even robbed other people's parents!
…
"There is something I want to discuss with you."
After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, Xie Haipeng was already dizzy and could not speak clearly.
"Dad, look what you said, you are the head of the family. If anything happens, you can just make your own decision. Do you need to discuss it with us?"
Ye Jiuzhou Road.
Xie Haipeng pursed his lips and then said: "I want to bring the old man home."
The old man he was talking about was naturally Xie Zhongtian.
At first, Xie Haifeng was targeted by the China Banking Regulatory Commission. Although he got through temporarily, he knew that sooner or later, the false accounts he had made would be exposed.
Therefore, he put all the blame on Xie Zhongtian.
Logically speaking, Xie Zhongtian should be imprisoned, and he will never be able to come out again in his life.
However, because he was too old and paralyzed, he was exempted from punishment and sent to a nursing home.
Although Xie Haipeng has never seen it, he can still imagine such a scene if he closes his eyes.
A paralyzed old man was sitting on a bench, crying silently facing the high wall with dead leaves...
Thinking of such a scene, Xie Haipeng shed tears.
"The old man has indeed made many mistakes in his life. He was partial, he defended his shortcomings, he was confused... I also hated him, and I even wished he would die early."
"But after all, he is also my father. Although he doesn't like me, he didn't abandon me, let alone starve me to death. Based on this, I can't just watch him die alone.
With a family by my side…”
By the end of the story, he was crying.
Everyone else was silent, and he was the only one sobbing.
Chen Shuying stared at her husband with a complicated expression.
Speaking of hatred, I'm afraid she is the one who hates the old man the most.
Now, my family's life has finally returned to the right track. If I take the old man here, wouldn't it be like destroying this hard-won happy life with my own hands?
"Wife."
Xie Haipeng wiped his tears and said: "I just drank too much, so I just mentioned it casually. It doesn't matter if you don't agree. After all, the old man brought it on himself, and he should be taught a lesson."
Chen Shuying still said nothing and didn't even move her chopsticks.
Xie Haipeng suddenly became anxious, "Honey, don't ignore me. I'll never mention it again in the future, okay?"
"I'm not angry!"
Chen Shuying took a deep breath and said: "I was just thinking, our place is too small. If we take the old man here, where should we live? He is not in good health, so we can't wrong him."
Xie Haipeng was stunned for a moment, then hugged Chen Shuying and cried silently.
Chen Shuying patted his back gently, like coaxing a baby to sleep.
She was not a cunning and savage woman, but after marrying into the Xie family, she was ostracized everywhere. No one ever looked down upon her, forcing a well-educated woman like her to become a shrew.
She even thought that she would spend her whole life in white eyes.
It wasn't until Ye Jiuzhou appeared that she saw hope.
Of course she hates Xie Zhongtian, but she loves her husband even more.
During the time when her husband was hospitalized, he stayed at the hospital.
After learning about Xie Zhongtian's current situation, Xie Haipeng lost his appetite for food and lost a lot of weight.
Chen Shuying also saw it and was anxious in her heart.
She is a virtuous woman, and the three obediences and four virtues are imprinted in her bones.
It was precisely because of this that she decided to give up her hatred and obey her husband's wishes.
Everyone was stunned. Even Xie Zhiqiu didn't expect that his mother could be so generous.
Seeing her daughter and son-in-law staring at her with wide eyes, Chen Shuying's face also turned red. She quickly pushed Xie Haipeng away and said, "How old are you? How do you look like you are crying and crying?"
"Thank Wife!"
Xie Haipeng chuckled, hugged Chen Shuying, and kissed her hard on the lips.
"I'm... not serious. What are you doing? The children are watching!"
As soon as she turned her head, Ye Jiuzhou thanked Zhiqiu for his tacit understanding and moved his eyes elsewhere.
