Chapter 120
Chapter 120
Yin Hui and Uncle De helped the old man to a chair.
Yin Yong waved his hand and said to Uncle De, “Go and fetch Mr. Fang.”
There was a medical clinic under the name of the Yin family, and Mr. Fang and Mrs. Fang were both doctors at the clinic. Mrs. Fang mainly saw female patients.
Uncle De said with red eyes, “I ordered someone to bring a stool over earlier, don’t worry.”
He didn’t feel sorry for the young master who had mistreated others, but he did feel deeply for his own master. He was angry at the undeserving descendants.
Yin Yong sighed and asked Uncle De to arrange for the staff to carry the unconscious daughter-in-law and eldest grandson back to the second room first.
Uncle De rushed off to make the necessary arrangements.
Yin Yong turned his head and saw his little granddaughter standing a few steps away, her cuffs clutched in both hands, looking at him with red eyes. But his little granddaughter appeared to be much sadder than Uncle De. With that expression, she seemed increasingly pitiful, as if she had been cast aside and no one wanted her anymore.
Yin Yong just smiled and waved to his little granddaughter, saying, “Why are you looking at me like this? Pour a bowl of tea for me.” His eldest grandson had done something terrible, and he had been disciplined for his own wrongdoing. He was angry and distressed but couldn’t forget the ups and downs he had been through.
The old man smiled, and Yin Hui’s tears fell. She approached, knelt down, and leaned on the old man’s lap. She said, “I thought, Grandpa, you were angry with me and didn’t like me anymore.”
Yin Yong gently touched his little granddaughter’s head and said, “Why are you still crying? Your elder brother made a mistake, but there’s no reason to blame you.”
Yin Hui replied, “Blame me not only for not helping my elder brother hide it, but for coming to the door with them to inquire about the crime.”
Yin Yong sighed and said, “Silly Hui, this has nothing to do with you. I know Liao Shisan’s temperament the best. If he wants to seek justice for his daughter, even if you tried to stop him, you wouldn’t have been able to. He must have thought carefully about coming to our door.”
Yin Hui raised her head and asked, “You really don’t blame me?”
Yin Yong smiled and wiped away her tears, saying, “No, Ah Hui, you are kind and righteous, just like your father. I am very proud of you.”
Yin Hui noticed the bloodshot eyes of her grandfather, and she knew that this incident had deeply affected him. She had secretly hoped that Yin Wen would stop his misdeeds once he realized there was someone protecting Liao Qiuniang. Then her grandfather wouldn’t have to endure the pain of seeing his own child and grandchildren involved in such troubles. She also hoped that others would learn from this and that parents would step in to protect their daughters from the likes of Yin Wen. Her goal was for her grandfather to see Yin Wen’s true character and become wary of him.
Yin Hui stood up and poured a bowl of tea for her grandfather. The tea was slightly cold, suitable for drinking in the summer. Yin Yong drank a bowl and sighed once more. Then he said, “Let’s go. The old couple will be arriving shortly. Let’s go and see how your elder brother is doing.”
Yin Hui helped the old man up and expressed her concern, “I’m afraid you’ll feel uncomfortable after seeing him.”
Yin Yong responded, “He dared to do it, why wouldn’t I dare to see him? If I hadn’t been kind to Liao Shisan, he might have been killed by him long ago.”
He had witnessed Liao Shisan’s courage when their caravan faced multiple waves of attacks. He knew that Liao Shisan was a remarkable man.
Yin Hui then admitted her admiration for Liao Shisan, saying, “You might not like to hear it, but I truly admire Uncle Liao. He loves his daughter deeply. Unlike others, he treats his daughter as a person, not as an object.”
Yin Yong acknowledged this sentiment. He had high regard for Liao Shisan, both for his character and his martial skills. Unfortunately, such a fine man would no longer serve the Yin family.
Shortly thereafter, Yin Yong’s second son arrived.
Yin Jingshan was greatly concerned about his wife and son, and upon seeing his father, he rushed over anxiously. He pleaded with the old man, “Father, you mustn’t believe everything Liao Shisan says. Ah Wen is the only hope for our family. He made a mistake, but he regrets it deeply!”
Yin Hui, seeing her second uncle, remembered that there was another relative in the household. She wondered why her grandfather didn’t invite him to listen to the testimony. However, it made sense for her grandfather to focus on a one-on-one conversation with Yin Wen. There was no need for multiple men to question Liao Qiuniang at that moment. In any case, his daughter-in-law would eventually tell her son what happened.
Yin Yong responded to Yin Jingshan, “Don’t ask me. Ah Wen will explain himself when he wakes up.”
Yin Yong was also somewhat displeased with his son at that moment. He had spent most of his time outside, and his energy was stretched thin. His son, on the other hand, rarely left Pingcheng in recent years. He believed that if his son had paid more attention to raising his eldest grandson well, the situation might not have reached such a point. Yin Yong suspected that his son’s past relationship with a woman and bringing a child back home might have set a bad example for the eldest grandson.
Leaving Yin Jingshan behind, Yin Yong took his little granddaughter to the yard where the eldest grandson was recuperating. Considering Yin Wen’s current state, Yin Hui waited in the hall while Yin Yong and his son went inside.
