Xiao Yebai's face was tense.
"Go home and see the elderly," Dad advised quietly by his side. "Now that the elderly are like this, don't end up regretting it, Yebai."
These words truly came from Dad's heart, as he spoke to his son-in-law, reflecting on his own experiences, which were not much different. Marrying a wife, having two elderly in-laws who often felt disdain and caused conflicts, being caught in the middle like a sandwich cookie—it was tough. But in all conscience, didn't the family raise the child when he was young? This nurturing grace cannot be circumvented by any means.
"Nuannuan would understand," Dad added.
Xiao Yebai pursed his lips tightly, remaining silent.
On the other end of the phone, there seemed to be some bad news.
People were running around.
Xiao Shuju yelled into the phone, "Grandma is in resuscitation! Damn you, Yebai, how can you not come back? How can you do this to grandma?!"
