Chapter 61 Need to Suffer a Little
"Grandpa... do you have something you want to say?"
Yan Mingyu, seeing the old man hesitating to speak, took the initiative to ask.
"Actually... Qin Yu, he..."
The old man hemmed and hawed, searching for the right words.
"Creak..."
Just then, at that moment, Qin Yu, carrying a bowl of medicinal soup, pushed open the door: "Old man, time for your medicine!"
"Oh..."
Grandfather Yang nodded his head, and finally told Yan Mingyu, "You haven't rested well these past few days, have you? Go take a break. I'm a bit tired; after I take my medicine, I'll sleep a bit more!"
"Okay, Grandpa!"
Yan Mingyu didn't think much of it and left, closing the door behind her.
"Qin Yu, the girl I asked you to marry last time was my younger granddaughter, and you two have never been together. Are you not satisfied? How about I introduce this older granddaughter to you again, huh?"
Grandfather Yang wanted to probe Qin Yu's thoughts.
The two youngsters had registered their marriage with Yan Mingyu wearing makeup, and the old man certainly knew about this.
"Hehe, old man, you still want to trick me? Aren't Yang Xue and Yan Mingyu the same person?"
Qin Yu was a bit amused and frustrated.
This old trickster, really thinking I'm foolish!
"Uh... you already knew?"
Grandfather Yang was a bit surprised.
"Found out just yesterday!"
Qin Yu said truthfully.
"Well, that's good, that's good. My granddaughter, you see, may be a bit cold and lacks some femininity. But she values relationships deeply. As long as you can win her over, she'll definitely be devoted to you for a lifetime!"
Grandfather Yang nodded as he spoke.
"I know, and I will definitely make her fall for me, not just because of a marriage certificate!"
Qin Yu had little experience chasing women, but he knew real feelings required mutual affection, unlike his parents' generation, who lived together reluctantly because of a marriage certificate and in the end only became a tragedy.
"Qin Yu, it's really good that you think this way!"
Grandfather Yang's face was full of relief.
"Let's not talk about me anymore, come on, take your medicine!"
Qin Yu helped Grandfather Yang sit up and carefully fed him the medicinal soup, spoon by spoon.
In the blink of an eye, evening approached.
After taking his medicine, Grandfather Yang had slept all afternoon and had pretty much recovered.
He wasn't only able to get out of bed but also had the energy to play chess with Grandpa Qin.
The medical team members took the opportunity to study the medical notes that were the culmination of Grandpa Qin's life's work.
Wherever they didn't understand, they would ask respectfully, as if they were earnest students.
Grandpa Qin multitasked, giving answers when asked and still managing to decisively defeat Grandfather Yang on the chessboard.
Which once again earned everyone's immense admiration. Continue your journey with empire
"Let's go out for a walk!"
Seeing that everyone was busy with their own work, and that he and Yan Mingyu were free, Qin Yu softly suggested to her.
"Okay!"
Yan Mingyu stood up and walked out of the house with Qin Yu.
The moon was very round tonight.
It draped a thin veil of pale white over the secluded little mountain village.
However, they hadn't walked far when a figure holding a flashlight hurried over: "Little Yu, Little Yu, there's trouble!"
"Did your youngest son cause trouble?"
Qin Yu looked at Chen Yulan, frowning as he asked.
"Yes... he hit someone's boss, and the police took him away. The boss has declared he's going to cripple Xiaohao. Little Yu, Mom is begging you, please help your brother!"
Chen Yulan pleaded, grasping the sleeve of Qin Yu's shirt.
"I can help him once, but can I help him for a lifetime? Isn't his character the result of you spoiling him? If he doesn't learn his lesson now, he'll suffer more later!"
Qin Yu said irritably.
"But... but he is still my son after all!"
Chen Yulan said weakly.
"I can't help you, go back. Everyone is an adult now, each person has to pay for their own actions!"
Qin Yu said, expressionless.
"Xiao Yu... Mom knows, it's Mom's fault, I was wrong. You've been a soldier, lived in the big city; you must have friends, acquaintances, please help your brother!"
Chen Yulan said as tears streamed down her face.
"You... go back, I'll think of something!"
Qin Yu's heart softened after all; this person was his mother.
"Okay, Xiao Yu, then I'll go back and wait for news!"
Chen Yulan wiped her eyes, took her flashlight, and walked back into the night.
Not until Chen Yulan was far away did Yan Mingyu finally speak, "Your relationship with your mother... isn't very good?"
"When I was around ten years old, she divorced my dad and started a new family. All these years, she barely took care of me. Now that trouble has come, she thinks of me!"
Qin Yu said sullenly.
"Then you've agreed to help out. Let's go see what's really going on, shall we?"
Seeing Qin Yu furrowing his brow, Yan Mingyu could tell that he truly cared about the mother-son relationship with Chen Yulan.
"Yeah, I'll take you back!"
"No need; let's go together. I couldn't sleep even if I went back!"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Yan Mingyu finished speaking and passed a car key to Qin Yu, "I had someone bring over two Land Rovers. They can handle the mountain roads no problem!"
"Thank you!"
Qin Yu didn't want to deal with his "brother's" fate, but he couldn't bear to see his mother tearful before him.
Ah, he was paying back the debt of giving him life, after all!
Qin Yu comforted himself with this thought.
Afterwards, he and Yan Mingyu arrived at the entrance of the village and got into a large Land Rover.
After starting it, they rattled their way toward the town.
If this matter wasn't thoroughly resolved, the boss back in East Sea would surely continue to cause trouble for his mother's family.
On the way.
They could see the work crews of the Four Seas Corporation working overtime to lay down asphalt roads.
In order not to disrupt the normal travels of the villagers, they chose to lay a one-way lane first, returning to lay the other lane toward town once they reached the entrance of the village.
Half an hour later.
Qin Yu drove the Land Rover to the town's police station.
Unexpectedly, the officer on duty was one of Li Lu's cousins.
He and Li Lu had been together for three or four years, almost getting married, so naturally, almost everyone in Li's family knew Qin Yu.
"Ha ha, cousin-in-law, not bad. Haven't seen you in two years, driving a Land Rover now!"
Li Lu's cousin greeted Qin Yu with a laugh as he stepped down from the Land Rover.
Although Li Lu had married someone else, he had always called Qin Yu this way, and it had become a habit.
"It's my boss's."
Qin Yu shrugged, then asked, "That... someone called Hao, is he here?"
"Deng Xiaohao, right, your mom's younger son!"
Being an acquaintance of Qin Yu and a police officer in the town, Li Lu's cousin was naturally well aware of the relationships involved.
"Hmm, what's his situation now?"
Qin Yu nodded and asked.
"The issue isn't too big, but the one who got beat up is a boss from our county town. I guess this Deng Xiaohao is going to suffer a bit!"
Li Lu's cousin said.
"Can you get in touch with that boss? I want to talk to him and settle this matter!"
Qin Yu asked.
"I can get in touch with the guy, but he used to be involved in the underworld and is particularly concerned about losing face. Deng Xiaohao beat him up; do you think he'd let it go easily?"
Li Lu's cousin shook his head, feeling that the situation was difficult to resolve.
"Squeak..."
"Squeak..."
At that moment, a series of braking noises came from outside the police station, and several vans pulled up in succession.
Through the windows, one could see that they were filled with people.
