Bai Wushuang has revealed the time of action. What Xiao Zheng has to do now is to wait for that day to arrive. During this period, he can devote his limited time to family, work, and maintaining family relationships on both sides.
Ye Gong's body and bones were getting worse day by day, although no one disclosed Ye Gong's condition to Lao Lin. But anyone who is not a fool can see that Ye Gong's life is not long.
Fortunately, Mr. Ye has had the habit of boxing since he was a child. Coupled with the terminal illness he suffers from, it will not excessively destroy his body functions. Except for his poor energy and spirit, he could still eat and drink, and he could even play with Xiao An in the garden for a while.
This weekend, the family had lunch in a restaurant. Lin Huayin and Tang Yue went into the kitchen to clean up. Xiao Zhengze and Ye Zanghua were sitting leisurely in the living room drinking tea. The old man walked in the garden with the active Xiao An.
At first, the family was not reassured, fearing that the old man would not be able to keep up. But after several tests, everyone knew that the old man was in good health, but he just couldn't play for too long. Therefore, Mr. Ye will not be deprived of his last time playing with his great-grandson.
"The hospital has issued an order. The old man must be hospitalized as soon as possible." Ye Zanghua lit a cigarette and said with a serious expression. "Your mother-in-law and I have tried to persuade you several times, but the old man refused."
"Why?" Xiao Zheng asked with a frown. "Although there is a private doctor at home, compared with the comprehensive facilities of the hospital, it is still a bit weak."
Ye Zanghua puffed out a puff of smoke, looked out the window, stared at Xiao An jumping in the garden, grinned and said: "The old man said, Xiao An is young and will not go to the hospital if he can. He doesn't want to end up in the hospital." I won’t see Xiao An during these days.”
Xiao Zheng's movement of drinking tea was stagnant, and he said with a heavy heart: "How long will it take?"
"In less than three months." Ye Zanghua said with a bitter expression. "But the old man has no taboos at all. If we keep going at this pace, it might be faster."
Xiao Zheng shook his head, pursed his lips and said, "Follow what the old man wants. Be filial and obedient."
Ye Zanghua flicked the cigarette ashes skillfully: "This is what my eldest sister and I meant." After a pause, Ye Zanghua said with a wry smile. "But even if we use force, I guess the old man won't listen."
Xiao Zheng nodded and said: "It will be good to spend more time with the old man in the near future."
After adapting in the past two years, Ye Zanghua is also mentally prepared. Then he changed the subject and said, "What's going on with Bai Wushuang? The city is full of storms right now."
Xiao Zheng said helplessly: "Bai Wushuang wants to take the initiative to attack."
"By him?" Ye Zanghua said in disbelief.
"And me." Xiao Zheng put down the tea cup and calmed down. "According to Bai Wushuang's wishes, Shang Jingtian will also take action."
"That old fox can't believe it." Ye Zanghua shook his head firmly. "Even if he doesn't stab him in the back, he will definitely run away."
"We can think of it. Bai Wushuang can't think of it." Xiao Zheng pursed his lips and said. "His goal is autumn harvest, at least from my perspective. It can be advanced or defended."
"You agreed?" Ye Zanghua said unexpectedly. "Join forces with Bai Wushuang?"
"The general trend is, I have no choice." Xiao Zheng said firmly.
When Ye Zanghua heard this, she just sighed and said, "It was Ye Gongguan who got you involved."
"Don't say this if you are a brother." Xiao Zheng said with a straight face. "How can there be no sacrifice for no reason? You are my son's uncle. Ye Mansion is my son's favorite place."
"I will show no mercy to anyone who dares to touch any plant or tree here." Xiao Zheng said firmly.
Seeing Xiao Zheng being so tough, Ye Zanghua didn't say much: "Does Huayin know your decision?"
"I haven't told her yet." Xiao Zheng glanced sideways at Lao Lin who was busy in the kitchen. "She is living a very comfortable life now. There is no need for her to worry."
Ye Zanghua nodded and smiled: "You are still a man."
After chatting for a while, Ye Zanghua changed the topic and suddenly lowered his voice: "Lin Chaotian came over last Friday night."
"Huh?" Xiao Zheng asked with a frown. "What is he here for?"
"Visit the old man." Ye Zanghua said slowly. "When he was leaving, the old man was furious. He called him a white-eyed wolf -"
Ye Zanghua exhaled a breath of turbid air and said with a bitter expression: "I guess the negotiation has collapsed."
"Speaking of which, I also had a negotiation with him." Xiao Zheng shrugged. "But in the end the deal fell apart."
"You kid." Ye Zanghua said angrily. "There is obviously a lot of future waiting for you. You have to find a dead end. Is it possible that you really want to fight with your father-in-law to the end?"
"You have to know. If you fight to the end, you will fight for your life." Ye Zanghua said without being alarmist.
"He is old." Xiao Zheng said vaguely. "I am still young."
Ye Zanghua shook his head and said no more.
He knew he couldn't convince Xiao Zheng.
So many people with more authority than him failed to persuade Xiao Zheng, so he didn't need to waste any words.
However, from a selfish perspective. Of course he hopes Xiao Zheng supports Ye Gongguan. Both for profit and for family.
I really want to just let it go and just sit on the sidelines. Ye Zanghua will also look down on Xiao Zheng.
Ye Gong led Xiao An, who was sweating profusely, back to the living room. The former's energy was slightly weak, but Xiao An's face was flushed. Very excited.
"Xiao An." Xiao Zheng waved. My son ran to me very obediently.
"Don't pester Grandpa next time." As he spoke, he skillfully stuffed a towel into Xiao An's clothes. Prevent colds.
Ye Gong smiled heartily and said: "Ah Zheng, please don't deprive me of this last pleasure. Xiao An likes to play with me very much. Don't you?"
Xiao An smiled mischievously, ran to sit down next to Mr. Ye, and beat Mr. Ye's legs in a decent manner: "Yes."
Ye Gong's eyes were full of relief and joy. I just lamented that there was not enough time. Can't enjoy family happiness. However, Ye Zanghua rolled her eyes, stared at Xiao An, who was as big as a brat, and said, "You only like your great-grandfather, but you don't like your uncle?"
"I like them all." Xiao An rolled his eyes, seemingly reluctantly.
In this regard, he has perfectly inherited Lao Lin's genes. I have little respect for this uncle. But he had a deep relationship with Ye Gong.
"Hahaha." Ye Gong hugged Xiao An's small body and was very happy.
Xiao An, who was lying in Ye Gong's arms, secretly winked at Xiao Zheng. It didn't convey much meaning, but it made Xiao Zheng inexplicably happy.
This kid is not very old, but he knows who he should get close to and who he should not get close to. What a cunning bastard. It's very much like Brother Azheng's style back then.
The original plan was that Xiao Zheng should stay at Ye Mansion for dinner at night. Lao Lin took Xiao An back to his parents' home to visit Lao Yao Lin.
For some unknown reason, Lin Huayin decided to stay at Ye Mansion for dinner. Instead, he ordered Xiao Zheng to take his son to the Lin family.
He rubbed his brows and sighed: "Daughter-in-law, you really want to murder your husband."
"Poor talker." Lin Huayin rolled her eyes at Xiao Zheng and turned back to the kitchen.
