Chapter 138 Human Heart
Chapter 136 Change
Human hearts have always been unpredictable.
The reason why the Yan family fell into this trap so suddenly and unexpectedly was that the person they trusted most stabbed them in the back.
Faced with this situation, even Old Master Yan had to admit that he was indeed getting old, so old that his eyesight was failing and he could no longer recognize people clearly.
His back, which had been ramrod straight, suddenly bent over at that moment, and the wrinkles on his face became even deeper, making him look much older in just an instant.
“Old man, we also suffered when we were young. As long as I’m still alive, I’ll be with you no matter where I am.”
"it is good."
Yan Changrong looked at his wife and a warm feeling welled up in his eyes. He felt both touched and guilty.
She patted his still broad but no longer strong and thin hand. It didn't matter how old the two of them were; Zhao Panpan's only worry now was the children.
Especially Xiaoqi, who is far away in southern Hunan and doesn't know the situation at home.
Just as the two were about to say something more, the people who had been surrounding the courtyard suddenly rushed into the house and dragged the two of them out.
The following time was agonizing for both of them.
Even after being escorted to the train station, Yan Changrong and his wife, who had suffered both physically and mentally, had not recovered.
After listening to Suning's advice and buying the items, I didn't linger and immediately waited at Xiaoqiao, not far from the train station entrance.
Looking at the group of more than twenty people, including the escorts, they didn't know how to confirm which one was the old man Yan that Sister Ning had mentioned.
There were a fair number of elderly people in their sixties or seventies in the line, but not too many either. We couldn't possibly go up to each one and ask them, could we?
Until an old man accidentally fell to the ground, and the old woman who was with him panicked and tried to help him up, she was caught and berated.
Xiao Qiao's eyes lit up; from those few shouts, he immediately knew who he needed to help.
He bent over, lowered his head, and began to beg, feigning madness and pitifulness.
As expected, he was driven away by the guards. The timid Xiao Qiao seemed frightened and ran away in a panic, somehow managing to run through the crowd to the back of the line.
Perhaps because he was too flustered, he stumbled and fell heavily to the ground.
That loud bang was painful to hear.
"Child, are you alright?"
Despite their injuries and limited mobility, Yan Changrong and his wife endured the pain and tried to help their child, who had fallen in front of them, to his feet.
Before the guard could even realize something was wrong and was about to reprimand or stop them, he spoke up.
The boy who had been helped broke free from the two of them and ran away without looking back, as if he was extremely afraid of being touched by them.
With a disdainful laugh, the guard strode up to the two men and shoved them forcefully. "Get inside now and behave yourselves! You're both in dire straits, what are you pretending to be, you little brats!"
His bent back seemed to have been struck by a series of shocks and he couldn't straighten up. Yan Changrong hunched over and clutched his injured abdomen, struggling to walk forward step by step with the help of his wife, whose eyes were blurry with tears.
Old people are shrewd, and although Zhao Panpan didn't know what the young man had stuffed into her arms, she knew she couldn't let anyone find out right now.
So the couple worked together perfectly, as if they had rehearsed beforehand.
Inside a completely empty carriage, a dozen or so people, nearly twenty in total, were scattered and huddled on the floor.
Sitting weakly in the corner, Yan Changrong looked up and quickly glanced around.
As you can hear the train whistling and preparing to leave the station, the only people in the carriages besides the two guards at the doors are those who have been sent down to the countryside.
Because the incident happened suddenly and in the middle of the night, the two were dressed in thin clothing and had not prepared anything.
Fortunately, I had put on a coat while waiting at home; otherwise, in the autumn with its huge temperature difference between day and night, I would have gotten sick sitting on the floor of the train carriage before even arriving at my destination.
Once the train had been running for quite some distance, the people around it either stared blankly into their own world, or closed their eyes and resigned themselves to their fate.
Even the guards were rubbing their eyes and yawning, their spirits broken and no longer inclined to chat or cause trouble.
Seeing the look he gave her, Zhao Panpan understood and knelt down in front of him, using her entire body to block his view from behind.
"Is the old man having a headache again? Let me massage it for you, but don't move."
As she spoke, she reached out and carefully pressed her hand against his head, forming an embrace that completely covered him.
Seizing the opportunity, Yan Changrong opened one side of his coat, took down the small cloth bag that he had been tightly tucking under his arm, and quickly opened it.
Inside, besides money and small gold jewelry, there were two or three small paper packets, which, according to the writing on them, should contain Western medicine pills for emergency use.
After glancing at it briefly, he quietly put it back. Yan Changrong grabbed her hand and said, "Old woman, I'm much better now. Don't press anymore. Sit down and rest for a while."
Zhao Panpan, who had lowered her hands, nodded and leaned against his shoulder, asking in a very soft voice in his ear, "These things?"
"The child mumbled a name as he was being shoved in."
"who is it?"
"Suning".
The girl that my grandson likes?
How could it be her?
Although they didn't know how she got the news or why she specially arranged for these things to be delivered, the couple couldn't help but feel a deep sense of warmth in their hearts.
It is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow.
In the current situation, these things could save their lives several times over.
Xiao Qi has always had a good eye, and this time is no exception!
They knew perfectly well that if one or even both of them were to die, it would be the most devastating blow to their dutiful son and grandson.
So, even for the sake of their children, the two of them had to struggle to survive and wait for the day when the Yan family would rise again.
What will happen to the eldest and second eldest brothers?
The results came out so quickly that the necessary procedures will probably just be a formality.
However, it's impossible to crush the entire Yan family with those things alone. The eldest and second eldest sons are not pushovers either; they have connections, methods, and backup plans.
The most likely outcome is that he'll be sent to the countryside like the other two, but where will he go...?
He now only hopes it won't be a place with an extremely harsh environment.
Just as Yan Laozi had guessed, Yan Ziyu's family was sent down to a remote reclamation farm, while Yan Zijin's family was sent to Gu'er Farm.
This situation, which was most favorable to the Yan family, was achieved only after the mediation of several parties, including those who had remained neutral but unexpectedly stepped forward to stir up trouble.
Not only were the two families able to be together, but they also avoided the place that was originally a place of no return, a place they had reserved as a backup plan to give a big gift to the Yan family.
However, in these two places, one has a long, freezing winter that can kill people, and the other is filled with yellow sand and is extremely short of water. Without anyone to help or take care of them, they can also suffer from severe thirst.
Those in the shadows had no choice but to console themselves with this thought, burying their heads in resentment and accepting the outcome.
……
Zhao Family Study in Shanghai.
"Dad, everything you asked for has been taken care of."
Zhao Rui looked at his father, his doubts undisguised behind his gold-rimmed glasses, "Dad, you have an old relationship with the Yan family patriarch? How come I didn't know?"
"It's not the Yan family, it's the Su family."
Why is the Su family being dragged into this again?
Zhao Rui knew very well about the Su family's affairs and his own family's affairs. Uncle Su and his father not only had a good relationship, but also a life-or-death bond.
When they encountered danger, if Su Ting hadn't decisively turned back and risked his own safety to rescue them, there would be no Zhao Qian, and naturally, there would be no Zhao family as we know it today.
If it was because of the Su family, he would understand why his father was so eager to find him, and even made that incomprehensible request.
"You don't need to worry about what happens next."
"I know."
After the Yan family incident and the rumors that were faintly coming from above, Zhao Rui, who had an extraordinary keen sense of smell, had already sensed something.
Changing the subject, he tentatively suggested, "Dad, how about I send you and Mom to Lily's hometown to live out your retirement?"
"Ok?"
My daughter-in-law Lili's hometown is in Sichuan, which I heard is a beautiful place with clear waters and lush mountains. But the problem is that the old folks' stomachs just can't handle the 'fiery' food.
Besides, when people get old, they like to stay in their own little world and don't want to go anywhere else, like fallen leaves returning to their roots.
Therefore, Zhao Qian waved his hand and did not agree.
After being rejected, Zhao Rui didn't say anything more, but secretly thought about how to get in touch with his mother.
Perhaps it won't be long before the city becomes increasingly chaotic. His parents are staying here; what if one day he gets caught doing something wrong...?
It's always better to plan ahead and make arrangements in advance.
If the situation stabilizes and his worst fears don't come true, everything will be fine, and the two elderly people can stay wherever they want.
Because of the screen being closed, this chapter is reversed from the previous one, so please be aware of that. I really can't figure it out.
