Chapter 1129 - 1131
Gao Dalin looked at the person who clearly seemed unwell but insisted on barging in, and he was truly at a loss.
Especially when he glanced at the person beside him, he inwardly cursed his bad luck.
But he absolutely couldn’t stop him. As someone who was once a soldier, he couldn’t lay a hand on an old revolutionary with medals hanging from his chest.
Recalling Zhao Gang going out with that woman and only returning on the third day, then never mentioning it again, he knew their relationship wasn’t good.
As for the elderly person in front of him supposedly resembling Mr. Zhao, Gao Dalin simply ignored such remarks.
Seriously, his salary was paid by Zhao Gang’s family, not by this old man in front of him, and certainly not by the fierce woman beside him.
Gao Dalin would absolutely not support this old man. What if the man deliberately fell?
Zhao Rui, supporting the stumbling Zhao Jiangnan, was truly exhausted, but no matter how tired she was, she had to persevere.
Thinking of the promises she made to her husband before leaving home, and the pitiable looks from her son, she mustered her courage.
"You won’t come and lend a hand." Hmph, truly a blind fellow. Did he know she had lost power and thus treated her this way?
"You should know he’s Zhao Gang’s father, the one who pays your salary." Once she officially moved in here, sigh, even if she did move in, she’d still be a cousin.
Zhao Rui had absolutely no feelings towards the grandparents she had never met, instead she was mad to death.
She wished she could stomp on their graves, ensuring they never reincarnate as humans again.
The father of Mr. Zhao? Gao Dalin was shocked inside, but he gave no reply. If he truly was Mr. Zhao’s father, why hadn’t he seen Mr. Zhao visit the hospital?
Gao Dalin had been here for years and never heard any mention of Mr. Zhao’s father from any Zhao Family member’s mouth.
"Hey, why aren’t you reacting?" Zhao Rui didn’t expect Gao Dalin to change his attitude towards her, anyway she didn’t need it. Thinking of begging now, didn’t she feel it was a bit late?
But surprisingly, he was just as indifferent as before, which nearly drove Zhao Rui to fury.
React, what reaction could Gao Dalin have? "I’m worried that if I’m not careful, the old man might get into trouble."
"Also, slow down a bit, and the old man will be fine." After all, the old man was elderly, he couldn’t walk quickly, and as a daughter, she should slow down.
Even if she was eager to see Zhao Gang, there was no need to rush like this.
"Let me slow down then." Zhao Jiangnan was also extremely tired being pulled and dragged by Zhao Rui, but he could see his daughter’s anxiety.
Zhao Jiangnan understood Zhao Rui’s feelings, but his discomfort was noticeable even to an outsider, and yet his own daughter didn’t see it. Wasn’t that a tragedy?
Just because of a man, she disregarded her own father, and that was with him still being somewhat useful. If one day he couldn’t provide any benefit to this daughter at all, would she still pay no attention to him?
Slow down? Zhao Rui was startled when she saw her father’s unwell expression. If her father had a problem here, it would be a big issue.
If her father died here, could she blame Zhao Gang, after all, it was his house.
But suddenly recalling Zhao Gang’s various cocky expressions from that day, Zhao Rui abandoned that thought, not wanting her father to pass away, Zhao Gang deny it, and in the end, she was the one suffering.
While her father was alive, she could still find out how much money the old couple had. Once the old man passed, her own mother would definitely take the money and go with her little brother.
Not to mention her as a daughter, even her big brother wasn’t fond of staying with them.
Zhao Rui quickly calculated, and her pace immediately slowed, "Dad, I was a bit anxious."
"Are you alright?"
"Dad, if you’re feeling uncomfortable, you should speak up sooner."
Hearing this, Gao Dalin rolled his eyes repeatedly. Did the elderly need to mention whether they were uncomfortable?
He could see the issue at just a glance. This daughter was not only unfilial but also continuously shifted responsibility, he really wondered how she was educated.
At this point, Gao Dalin was also quite dissatisfied with the medals on the old man’s chest; seriously, if he truly considered Mr. Zhao as his son, how many fathers would come to their son’s house wearing such things?
This wasn’t scaring people? Thinking about this, Gao Dalin also felt resentment toward Zhao Jiangnan.
"You said the fat woman who came that day is here?"
"And she brought an old man?" Zhao Gang knew that the news coming from the south would excite Zhao Rui.
She would think of various ways to find connections, but how could she suddenly turn her mind towards him, truly baffling.
But since Zhao Gang was already here, he had no choice but to entertain them.
"Uncle, why didn’t you notify me before you came." Zhao Gang couldn’t let Zhao Jiangnan wait too long, of course.
Uncle? Gao Dalin kept observing from the side; wasn’t it supposed to be a father-son relationship? How did it become an uncle-nephew relationship? He really didn’t understand anymore.
Zhao Jiangnan shivered, "What did you call me?"
"Hello, Uncle." Zhao Gang turned to his wife and the twins following him out.
"Uncle, this is my wife, Zhan Jing, a top graduate from the Medical University."
"Xuran, you met a few days ago, and you’ve also met his wife."
"These are my twin sons, Zhan Banxia and Zhuge Zisu."
Although the twins hadn’t met Zhao Jiangnan before, they knew a thing or two about their own father’s and Sister Ni’s attitudes toward the old man.
For this old man they had never met, the two looked at each other with great tacit understanding, "Hello, Great-Grandpa."
"I, I..." Zhao Jiangnan, looking at the two identical twins, was excited.
At least his eldest son did a good job of educating the children, "Why do they have the surnames Zhan and Zhuge?"
Zhan followed his mother’s surname, but Zhuge?
Was this going to cause trouble? "I’m adopted, so having two small ones follow an adopted line is no problem."
"Moreover, there are two sons with the surname Zhao."
Are two sons with the surname Zhao too many? Don’t people know that having many grandchildren at home is truly prosperous?
Also, isn’t it good to have alliances through marriage? Obviously, it seems to be a marriage alliance with the Zhao Family.
"Uncle, you just take care of your son and grandsons." Isn’t it clear what there’s to be angry about, even if the twins have the surname Zhao, it doesn’t concern him one bit.
"If there’s going to be a marriage alliance, aren’t a few grandsons enough, especially are there really that many potential partners?" Zhao Gang wasn’t foolish.
Knowing that this branch of the Zhao family had no successors, who with foresight would be willing to marry into their family?
What does this mean, Zhao Jiangnan was furious, "Why is it not good?"
"Certainly better than the wife you chose for Xuran." At least those people have connections in the J Realm and Z World, far better than Gong Ruini.
"Great-Grandpa, how I choose a wife is my business."
"Marriage law stipulates, marriage freedom." Gong Ruini, knowing Zhao Gang’s stance, certainly wouldn’t hide.
Always hiding behind Zhao Xuran really made these people think she was easy to bully, not taking her seriously one by one.
It truly was unbearable, "Grandpa Zhao, although you have done a lot for us to have a happy life, you can’t disregard the law."
"I feel it is necessary to discuss with Grandpa Zhao what constitutes marriage law."
"I remember when Uncle Zhao and Grandma Xia divorced, the reason was you wanted to break away from arranged marriages, you wanted freedom in marriage."
"Never thought the rights you fought for, now you want to oppose."
Gong Ruini kept shaking her head, humph, wasn’t this very law they laid down at the beginning, now instead they ignor it, it’s not just excessive but extremely so.
