Chapter 184: Chapter 184 - 184 Too Realistic_1

“If Ahao never wakes up, then Little Huzi will carry this guilt for the rest of his life. It’s no wonder that Hanhan was so angry.”

They had only considered the immediate problem, completely disregarding the future implications.

Hanhan had turned her back on her eldest and second-eldest brothers, but the rumors did not cease. As grandparents, they failed to fight for their grandson’s best interest. They feared that when Little Huzi grew older and found out he’d been indirectly implicated, he would disown them!

Meng Yunhan’s father sighed several times, “Let them take Ahao to the town!”

“How can we do that, he is my son, my grandson.”

Meng Yunhan’s father was somewhat angry, “When the incident first happened, why didn’t you think about Ahao being your son and Little Huzi your grandson? It’s too late now. Hanhan is permanently scarred in her heart, it’s a wound that cannot be erased.”

Meng Yunhan’s mother felt completely deflated.

“But we had agreed back then to live with the family of our third son. Now they’ve gone to the town, leaving us behind in the village, how does that look?”

Meng Yunhan’s father snorted coldly, “If our eldest and second sons truly care about their brother Ahao, they would visit him every day. But what’s the reality? They are treating their own brother like this. You still expect them to provide for our old age? You can forget it. It’s my fault for not raising our sons better.”

Meng Yunhan’s mother looked at her husband in disbelief, pondering his words, unable to find a retort.

Our third son used to be well-off, and the brothers had great affection for each other. But now that our third son is down, they’ve kept their distance.

She used to think that she had raised a few filial children. But the final outcome was too pragmatic.

Too pragmatic.

“And don’t try to stop us or I’ll blame you for this. From now on, Ahao will be our son-in-law who lives with us.”

Meng Yunhan’s father left the house under the scorching sun after dropping these words.

He didn’t fulfill his duties as a father, and owed his youngest son. The youngest son made so many sacrifices for the family, but now he was down, and the two sisters-in-law were circulating such rumors.

Meng Yunhan’s mother wiped away her tears, her heart was chilled.

A lifetime spent worrying and caring for their children, but in the end, they received only complaints, feeling unfair both inside and outside.

“Auntie, auntie, Little brother woke up, Little brother woke up.” Zhang Yunxuan as a child mistook Little Huzi’s movements for him waking up, and with his little legs, ran to the kitchen.

Meng Yunhan quickly wiped her hands with a towel, “Dad, watch the fire for a bit, I’ll go check.”

Aged Father Zhao waved his hand at Meng Yunhan, “Go, go.”

Meng Yunhan thought her son had really woken up, so she ran back to the room only to find that he hadn’t woken up at all.

However, she still gently patted Little Huzi and saw him move his small mouth a couple of times before falling asleep again.

“Ahao, keep an eye on your son, I’m going to cook.”

Meng Yunhan returned to the kitchen to cook.

Little Zhang Yunxuan loyally stayed by the kitchen, not bothered by the heat.

“Little Zhuzi, go call grandpa and grandma, it’s time to eat.”

Little Zhang Yunxuan’s eyes gleamed, “Okay, I’ll go right now.”

The family sat together for the meal. Meng Yunhan made cucumber and meatball soup. She also stir-fried string beans and made a leek box.

The lunch was indeed a bit extravagant.

These dishes were all ones Meng Yunhan had never made before.
