Chapter 168 Returning to Zhao Family Village to Settle Accounts
Chapter 168 Returning to Zhao Family Village to Settle Accounts
After confirming that she truly possessed the ability to read minds, Mu Zhen would visit Mu Yunfei's place whenever she had a spare moment, regardless of whether it was day or night.
Those two sometimes sleep during the day, since sleeping is the only way for them to alleviate their pain right now.
As soon as I reached the door, I heard voices coming from inside, so I left dejectedly.
"Grandpa and Grandma, I'm really fine, it's just a minor injury, you don't need to worry about me. On the contrary, you two are getting old, you should take better care of yourselves."
If you can take a car, don't walk. Exploring G country isn't something that can be done in a day or two... Got it, bye!
Madam Huangfu removed the phone from her son's mouth and then ended the call.
He jokingly said with schadenfreude, "Now you know how many people would worry if you got hurt, right? We've always taught you to be careful and cautious in everything you do."
"Look at you, you couldn't even detect when your trusted confidants were harboring disloyalty. You deserve to suffer."
Huangfu Zique sighed, "Yes, yes, it's my fault for not managing my subordinates strictly and for being blind to their abilities."
"Ha, isn't that just blind? Treating subordinates like this, and women like this too... Never mind, I'll spare you trouble for now, just focus on healing. I'm going to go meet your heartless grandmother."
Huangfu Zique looked away. For the first time, he did not argue with his mother when she belittled Bai Luoluo. How could he have the face to argue?
At that time, I only thought that my mother was dissatisfied with Bai Luoluo because of the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Alas, it turns out that my mother had sharp eyes and saw through Luoluo's true nature of wanting to be a playboy at a glance.
Damn! He, the young master of the prestigious World Merchants Association, has become a fish in some woman's pond one day.
Why didn't she refute her? Madam Huangfu was puzzled. Come to think of it, Bai Luoluo hadn't shown her face even once since the two children were hospitalized.
But this was a sensitive matter; she was already terrified of her son and couldn't afford to let him develop any rift with her.
If all else fails, just create a new account. Aren't there many surrogacy agencies overseas?
Zi Que can do whatever he wants from now on; she will ensure he has a worry-free life from now on.
It's a pity... If Zixi could recover, she would definitely focus on nurturing him.
"What's wrong? Why do you look so serious? Are you really that reluctant to part with that wolf grandmother? Let me tell you, stop being so confused. That wasn't my grandmother at all."
"You should be grateful to the village chief and the villagers, not them." Huangfu Zique saw that his mother's eyes were dim and thought that she was reluctant to punish the Zhao family.
Madam Huangfu rolled her eyes at him, annoyed: "Zixi woke up for a while this morning."
Upon hearing this, a faint look of worry appeared on Huangfu Zique's face.
I wonder what my third uncle and aunt owed my mother in their past life that caused her to become like this in this life.
My third uncle once had a daughter, but she died trying to save his mother.
Six years ago, she finally had a son late in life. Last year, her younger cousin pushed her, and while her mother escaped a car accident, her younger cousin did not survive.
Although my younger cousin's body was not physically damaged, his brain suffered severe injury. Even with the Huangfu family spending vast sums of money, they could only barely keep him alive.
That child was either sleeping all day or acting like a dazed baby, unable to control his urination and defecation.
"I will take care of my third uncle and the others in their old age," Huangfu Zique could only comfort her in this way.
Lady Huangfu smiled gently and lovingly stroked her son's forehead: "Alright! I'm leaving!"
Hey!
Silly child, what my third brother and the others have never wanted is someone to take care of them in their old age, but rather children to keep them company.
What merit or ability did she possess in her life to have so many people help her?
Sometimes she even wondered if she was a jinx reincarnated.
She caused her parents to waste half their lives at birth, and when she grew up, she needed two children to save her life.
Madam Huangfu's departure did not take away the oppressive atmosphere in the ward.
Mu Yunfei opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. He wasn't good at comforting people.
He was also very familiar with Huangfu Zixi, and had even hugged him a few times. Every time that kid saw them, he would pounce on them like a little cannonball.
That was the most beautiful and adorable child he had ever seen.
Last year, the doctor seemed to have said that the child wouldn't live past eight years old, so next year Huangfu Zique will have to completely lose his cousin, right?
Zhaojia Village.
Rows of three-story villas are scattered throughout the village. Although it is nominally a rural area, the environment is no worse than that of villa clusters in big cities.
The streets are wide, clean, and tidy.
Even the streetlights along the roadside exude the scent of money.
The mountains are covered in a spectacular display of wildflowers, and the villagers walking around are all beaming with happiness.
One of the estates, located at the foot of the slope, is the most magnificent. Not to mention how vast its area is, its opulent architecture is something that ordinary wealthy families could not possess.
This is the family home of the world's richest man's wife.
No one knows that Zhao Family Village, known as the back garden of the capital, was a place where many families could not afford to eat meat even once a year fifty years ago.
All the villagers are very grateful to the daughter of the Zhao family. After she became successful, she not only vigorously developed the economy of Zhao Village, but also brought all the children of each family to the capital.
Many successful descendants of these families have even entered the upper echelons of society in the capital.
Those who remain in the village today are mostly elderly people who are unwilling to leave their homeland.
Moreover, life in Zhao Family Village is no worse than in the capital.
Since they are grateful to the Zhao family's daughter, they will naturally be grateful to the Zhao family as well.
Old Master Zhao was a more prestigious figure in the village than the village officials, and Old Lady Zhao lived a life like that of an ancient feudal lord.
A family of more than ten people lived in the manor, but had forty or fifty servants to serve them.
It's no wonder that the Zhao family didn't want to live in the capital. Wouldn't it be better to be local tyrants here?
A line of luxury cars drove into the village in unison. With such a grand display, it was obvious that Old Zhao's daughter had returned.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, that great-aunt is back!"
The little boy ran home and shouted at the white-bearded old man smoking a pipe in the yard.
Grandpa said that as soon as that great-aunt returns, she must come and inform him.
The little boy didn't know why, but he had been doing this for years.
The old man's previously cloudy eyes suddenly cleared. He put away his pipe, picked up his cane, and slowly walked out with a hunched back.
"Dad, why don't you not go? I'll go with the secretary and the others." A middle-aged man went over and helped his elderly father up.
The old man refused: "No, no, I need to go and check it myself to feel at ease."
The Zhao family is a bunch of short-sighted fools. It's only because Xiuya has a good personality that they've managed to leave the Zhao family far behind. Any other child would have left the Zhao family far behind long ago.
Even now, he still can't understand why any family would be overjoyed to have such a daughter.
But the Zhao family doesn't follow the usual path; each of them wants nothing more than to tear a piece of flesh from the other's body.
As the saying goes, even an upright official finds it hard to settle family disputes. All he could do was keep an eye on the Zhao family so they wouldn't make any more mistakes.
They can die if they want to, but they shouldn't ruin the future of their fellow villagers.
What a wonderful girl Xiuya is! She's capable and grateful. Which village in the whole country is as lucky as Zhao Family Village?
He's getting old; I wonder how many more years he can contribute to the village.
Hey!
