Chapter 2018: Zhuang Tunan, you are the eldest son. If I don’t raise him, who will?

Well, judging from the sound of his strong cough, it definitely doesn't look like he's seriously ill.

Zhuang Tuxi sat on a chair against the wall, hugged his elbows and crossed his legs.

"Dongzhe, the child's grandmother called just now and said that Xiaochu seems to be a little unwell. You should go home and take a look!"

Zhuang Xiaoting sent her husband away because it was inconvenient for him to be present at some things, and it was obvious that the eldest and second brothers would argue again.

Seeing this, Li Jia also wanted to leave, so she winked at her husband, but it turned out that Zhuang Tunan didn't even notice it because he was sulking.

"Hmph!" She glared at him and continued washing the towels.

After Lin Dongzhe left, the ward suddenly fell silent, with only the sound of Li Jia washing towels.

It was quite embarrassing for her.

"Dad, wipe your face!"

"Hey~" Zhuang Chaoying forced a smile on his face. "Hey Jiajia, stop working so hard and sit down and take a rest!"

Zhuang Xiaoting, who was peeling an apple, felt a little uncomfortable when she heard this, but didn't say much.

"Dad, eat an apple!"

This can be considered as breaking the deadlock!
Zhuang Tunan was so filial that he personally went over and took the towel from his wife.

"Dad, let me wipe your face~"

"Oh, I didn't expect that an illness would cause so much trouble to you and your sister!" Zhuang Chaoying seemed to be hinting at something, and his eyes kept drifting to the side.

Zhuang Tuxi naturally looked down on Xin Mingjing, just like he looked down on this cheap father. He probably thought that he was not a good son in Zhuang Chaoying's heart.

Do you remember me now?
Sorry, I don’t buy it!

So I pretended not to hear it, and even whistled by fiddling with my fingers.

"Xiaoting, the weather is nice today. You finally came back. Come to my house for dinner tonight. My Tiantian has been saying that she misses her aunt!"

"Okay~" Thinking of her lovely niece, Zhuang Xiaoting smiled.

Thinking of what happened just now, I said it deliberately.

"I know a particularly delicious Cantonese restaurant. I'll ask Lin Dongzhe to make a reservation for my brother and invite my parents-in-law and my mother to come along!"

Now Zhuang Chaoying was embarrassed.

"Hmph!" He said with a stern look on his face.

Having not seen each other for a few years, what just happened reminded Zhuang Tunan of the feeling of being dominated by his younger brother in the past. Zhuang Tunan did not dare to say anything to Zhuang Tuxi, but he looked dissatisfied towards his sister.

"Xiaoting, why are you talking about this at this time? Our father's condition is urgent!"

"Okay, it's just a stomachache. It's okay, I'll go back first!" Zhuang Tuxi said as he stood up and was about to leave.

Li Jia's eyes changed and she quickly kicked her husband gently as a reminder.

Zhuang Tunan finally reacted. "Hey, wait a minute!"

"what?"

"You don't care about our dad?"

"Puchi~" Zhuang Tuxi was amused by him.

"No, then what do you mean?"

"We need to discuss our dad's retirement. What should we do next? It's not a good idea to always live in a guesthouse!"

Zhuang Tunan was still a little embarrassed. After all, as the eldest son, he should take care of his father, but the current situation did not allow it.

His life in recent years can be described as a mess. After giving the house to his brother-in-law, the family of three moved to his father-in-law and mother-in-law's house.

It was already very crowded for a family of five to live together, but the father-in-law also brought his wife's grandparents to live home. The old lady was fine, but the old man was a little difficult to deal with, making life even more inconvenient for the family.

Originally, I wanted to rent a house and move out, but I really didn't have enough money. My brother-in-law has never had a peaceful life since he got married. First, he had to borrow money to have a child, which was equivalent to several months' salary. Then tens of thousands of dollars from his business were wasted again.

Now the family’s living expenses almost entirely depend on himself, and he has never seen his wife Li Jia’s salary.

Zhuang Tunan was exhausted after spending so much money in vain. He was afraid to go home after get off work every day. As everyone knows, Zhuang Tunan is more concerned about his reputation than his father. Last year, he finally raised the issue, but was scolded by Li's father and mother.

"Hey Tunan, how can a grown man like you spend your wife's money?"

"Jia Jia is a filial child. It's all our fault that she is a burden. She is always sick and needs to be hospitalized and buy medicine. How about your mother-in-law and I take grandma to live in a nursing home?"

Well, Zhuang Tunan fell silent.

Even though I know that most of the money was given to my brother-in-law, I don't know what to say because I want to save face!

So, if this father were in the past, how could he have accommodated him?

Zhuang Chaoying, who was lying on the hospital bed, was not stupid and could naturally see the situation clearly. It seemed that his eldest son Zhuang Tunan was not in good condition and he could not go there and cause trouble for him.

My daughter Zhuang Xiaoting has never considered that she has two sons but still relies on her daughter for support in her old age. If she tells others about this, she will be laughed at to death.

So now only the youngest son Zhuang Tuxi is left.

Plus, he still has little 99 in his heart, and he's had enough of living alone for so many years, so he's always thinking about remarrying.

"Cough!" He coughed lightly in a pretentious manner.

"Tunan, I won't cause you any trouble. I've been in Gusu for so many years..."

Zhuang Tuxi sneered in his heart, who could he fool with such a small trick?

He turned around and interrupted: "Brother, you are the eldest son!"

"After my parents divorced, I have been the one supporting our mom for so many years. Now it is your turn. You can't let your younger brother take care of everything. This is a bit ridiculous!"

“Who among the old neighbors doesn’t know this now?”

"The eldest son of Zhuang is the most promising. He has bought a big house in Shanghai and works in a design institute of a university. Even Mr. Zhuang always mentions him. The eldest son is his proudest child!"

"You...are you trying to push it to me?" Zhuang Tuxi said and stared at him.

“Uh…” Zhuang Tunan was embarrassed.

As I said, these two father and mother have always been too concerned about their reputation to care about anything, and now that it has come to this, there is no way they can refuse.

He could only look at his wife with a pleading look in his eyes.

What can Li Jianan say?
Or simply can't refuse.

In this day and age, it is natural for the eldest son to provide for his parents in their old age.

But... my family knows my own business. There are only two bedrooms in the house. My husband, I and the children sleep in one, and my parents sleep alone in another. When my grandparents come over, they sleep in the living room.

Where will this father-in-law live?

"Alas~" He sighed bitterly.

Zhuang Tunan naturally knew about this situation and understood that his brother was up to no good, so he turned his head and looked at his sister.

Zhuang Xiaoting couldn't bear it.

"Dad, how about..."

"Yes, Dad, why don't you go to the eldest brother? I'm sure my eldest brother will have no objection!" Zhuang Tuxi took over the conversation.

He even glared at Zhuang Xiaoting.

President Zhuang, who is already in his thirties, rarely stuck out his tongue in a playful manner and sat there without saying a word. Tomorrow there will be a conflict between the eldest brother and the second brother, and she, the third brother, must not get involved.

"I... yes, I have no objection!" Zhuang Tunan said this in a daze, not daring to look up at his wife's face.

Li Jia also accepted her fate. She was not the kind of unruly daughter-in-law. What else could she say at this time!
Don’t raise it?

That won't work at all.

You don't have any opinion?
I have an opinion!
Zhuang Chaoying was a little dazed. He had never thought about going to his eldest son's place and was always thinking about remarrying.

"That Tunan, Dad is still..."

To be continued.
