Chapter 31: Seeking Reinforcement

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Shui Xian noticed that the children were gathered together, but she did not think too much about it. At this moment, she had to keep an eye on her mother-in-law. She could not let her sister-in-law scheme against her. Otherwise, all her efforts today would be in vain. It was rare for her father-in-law to have a clear-headed moment.

“Father, didn’t you promised me when we split the fortune? Our family will support you in your old age. Fu only needs to pay for your food…” Liu Dage was still struggling. Now, his father was not even going to give him anything.

Old Mr. Liu placed his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky. He said, “I’m tired!”

Liu Dage choked on Old Mr. Liu’s words. Liu Dage’s wife said, “Father, don’t you care about your grandson? He’s still waiting for you to get him a wife!”

“I’m your father, not my grandson’s father! What does it have to do with me?” Old Mr. Liu replied.

Someone could not hold it in and laughed.

Yang Cailan suddenly had a good impression of Old Mr. Liu. She realized that Old Mr. Liu was a little like the old Taoist priest. He was just as willful, difficult to deal with, and friendly. Yang Cailan wanted to have some fun with Old Mr. Liu. However, Liu Baishan saw Yang Cailan’s restless look and was afraid that she would do something inappropriate. He did not care about his black face and quickly held her down. He said, “Behave yourself.”

Yang Cailan responded with an “oh” and stopped moving. She was a little disappointed. To her, Old Mr. Liu should be very interesting, but since her big baby had spoken, she should be more obedient.

Just as Liu Dage was about to get up and question Old Mr. Liu, a commotion broke out in the crowd. Then, someone helped an even older old man over.

Old Master Liu’s name was Liu Er. He was still planning to continue acting as he pleased. Seeing that, he immediately put away his annoying look and ran to the person like a lackey. He said, “Brother, why are you here?”

Liu Yi reached out and slapped Liu Er’s face. Liu Yi trembled and said, “If I didn’t come, you would have been schemed against and lost. You’re still here foolishly raising someone else’s son and even scamming our Liu family!”

Liu Eryi was dumbfounded. He had lived for so many years. It was not easy for him to endure until he was this old. His father was no longer in control, and no one could lay a hand on him. In the end, Liu Yi lived even longer than Liu Er. Liu Yi was already eighty years old, and he could still slap others! Liu Er felt wronged. However, he did not dare to say anything.

“Brother, what are you talking about? Why didn’t I understand!” said Liu Er.

Liu Er was really curious. He did not know what could have made his old brother come out trembling. Then, Liu Er’s gaze could not help but fall on Liu Dahu. He had never cared much about this great-grandson of his. He really could not get close to his third son’s family.

Liu Dahu had come with a mission, so he puffed out his chest and said in a loud voice that he wished the whole world could hear, “Great-grandfather, you don’t know. I heard that Granduncle Dage’s biological parents gave that old Taoist money to find a family that could take care of him. After Granduncle Dage got married, his biological parents even came to look for him. Recently, Granduncle Dage had planned to bring his biological parents over to live in your mansion.”

Liu Dahu had always been clever, and now he was even more vivid, adding some details to Yang Cailan’s information.

Old Mrs. Liu was the first to explode. It was because Liu Dage had indeed mentioned to her that a relative of his wife had encountered a disaster and wanted to stay at home for some time. Old Mrs. Liu had not had the time to discuss it with Old Mr. Liu. She said, “Your biological parents? Then what about your father and I?”

Liu Dage was completely embarrassed by his mother’s tugging on his ear. He could only beg for mercy. However, Old Mrs. Liu’s grip was not weak. She spun his ear 180 degrees and he said, “Mother, it hurts!”

Old Mrs. Liu sneered, “You’re in pain? My heart hurts even more!”

Yang Cailan tugged at Liu Baishan’s hand and said, “Grandma is so awesome!”

Liu Baishan was speechless.

There was no winner in this farce, but the result was still acceptable.

Old Mrs. Liu and Old Mr. Liu would definitely not move in with Liu Fu right now. After all, they still had their pride. However, Old Mrs. Liu and Old Mr. Liu immediately closed the door when they returned home. No matter how much Liu Dage and his family knocked on the door, the two elders did not move at all.

“What’s wrong with you today? Why did you suddenly change your mind?” Old Mrs. Liu could not figure it out.

Old Mr. Liu sighed, “I just feel that it’s boring. We’ve lived too long. The children are starting to dislike us.”

When Old Mrs. Liu thought of that reason, she became even more vexed. Who would want to die if they could live well?
