remain silent

After being stuck in a traffic jam for almost half an hour, and seeing that he was about to drive downstairs in the neighborhood of his home, Han Chenxin received a call from Han Zhong, saying that Xu Jiayi had burned her hand while cooking and was now in the hospital.

Han Chen was taken aback, and quickly asked, "Which hospital?"

Han Zhong told him that he was in the health care center closest to his home.

Han Chenxin said, "I'll be right over."

He hung up the phone and said to Sun Zheyang, "Go ahead and go to the health care center at the intersection."

"What's wrong?" Sun Zheyang asked.

Han Chenxin said, "My mother burned her hand and is in the hospital now."

"Oh," Sun Zheyang responded indifferently, "Let's go, I'll take you there."

For Xu Jiayi's injury, Sun Zheyang really didn't care at all. Not gloating in front of Han Chenxin was the best he could do.

Sun Zheyang drove the car to the entrance of the health center, stopped to let Han Chenxin get out of the car, and said, "Go up, I'll go first."

Han Chenxin nodded, turned around and walked towards the hospital.

Xu Jiayi was scalded by hot oil while cooking, on her left arm, fortunately the area was not too large, and the degree of burn was not too serious.

When Han Chenxin arrived, Xu Jiayi was treating the wound in the emergency room, and Han Zhong was waiting for her outside.

Han Chenxin ran over and asked, "How is my mother?"

Han Zhong said, "It's nothing." But he sighed when he finished speaking.

In fact, the burn on her hand was nothing, the key was that Xu Jiayi was in a bad mood, she kept crying when something happened, as if she had been greatly wronged.

After applying the medicine, Xu Jiayi turned her face away when she saw Han Chenxin, and she was about to cry again.

Han Zhong lightly bumped Han Chenxin's back, "Go and persuade your mother," and then he went to the pharmacy to pick up the oral anti-inflammatory medicine prescribed by the doctor.

Han Chenxin walked up to Xu Jiayi and sat down, and said, "Mom, are you okay?" I didn't know what else to say.

Xu Jiayi didn't speak, and after sobbing for a while, she said, "You can just be mad at me, anyway, it's fine if you're mad to death."

Before Xu Jiayi finished her meal, her hand hurt, and she couldn't finish this dinner at home.

Han Chenxin called Han Zixin and said that he was treating dinner tonight, and the family was having dinner at a restaurant outside.

Han Zixin came here straight after school. She was quite happy when she heard that the family was having dinner together, but when she entered the restaurant and saw Xu Jiayi's gloomy face, her steps stopped immediately.

Han Chenxin stretched out his hand to beckon her over, and then told the waiter to serve the food quickly.

Xu Jiayi was in a bad mood, and Han Zhong was obviously not at ease.

He and Xu Jiayi have been together for so many years. Before he divorced his ex-wife, Xu Jiayi could be said to be obedient to him. Even though a woman has worked hard, she never complained to him. This made him feel sorry for Xu Jiayi all the time. , wanting to make up for Xu Jiayi.

But after he and Xu Jiayi officially got married, although Xu Jiayi was still very kind to him, she would no longer hide her emotions like in the past.Gradually, Xu Jiayi would also complain, complain, and show him face when she was in a bad mood.

Of course Han Zhong would not say that he regretted it, but day after day, the mood that he was so determined to abandon his wife and son to reorganize the family at that time has faded, and he began to feel sorry for his ex-wife and his eldest son again.

Especially when the youngest son is developing very well in all aspects, he is more determined to make up for the eldest son.

The waiter brought up the food, and Han Zhong picked up a chopstick and put it into Xu Jiayi's bowl, saying, "Eat quickly."

Xu Jiayi put her chopsticks down and said, "I have no appetite."

Han Zixin glanced at Xu Jiayi, then at Han Chenxin.

Xu Jiayi suddenly asked Han Chenxin, "Is he still living with you?"

The family stopped chopsticks and looked towards Xu Jiayi.

Han Chen took a slow breath and said, "Yes."

Xu Jiayi said: "It's not what I said, anyway, be careful, you forgot how he bullied you when you were in junior high school? Now he is a murderer again, maybe he will commit something in the future!"

Han Chenxin said, "He's not a murderer."

Xu Jiayi snorted, "I understand, it's just that there is no evidence, and it doesn't mean he didn't do it."

Han Chenxin wanted to speak, but Han Zhong put down his chopsticks heavily, and said in a suppressed voice, "He is my son, why is he sorry for you?"

Xu Jiayi said: "He used to beat Chen Xin to the hospital for stitches, you forgot?"

Han Zhong said: "That's why I'm sorry for their mother and son first!"

"You—" Xu Jiayi still wanted to speak.

Han Chenxin interrupted her, "Stop arguing."

The small restaurant is full of people, once there is a quarrel, it is really ugly.

Han Chenxin filled a bowl of soup for Xu Jiayi with his left hand, and said, "Drink some soup, I'll sleep at home tonight, don't worry about anything, just have a good rest."

In the evening, Xu Jiayi went back to her room to rest, and Han Zhong called Han Chenxin to the balcony to talk.

"Is your brother okay?" Han Zhong asked him.

Han Chenxin looked at the streetlights in the community downstairs and said, "It's okay."

Han Zhong sighed again. He said, "I contacted him with a job and asked him to work as a driver in our unit. It costs more than 2000 a month and includes three meals a day. Ask him if he would like to go."

Han Chenxin turned his head, "Why didn't you call him?"

Han Zhong's tone was a little helpless, "He can't say a word to me."

Ever since Han Chenxin saw Sun Zheyang in the detention center for the first time, he always spoke to the Han family in a very aggressive tone, and everything he said was stinging.After getting along for a long time, his attitude towards Han Chenxin softened, but when facing Han Zhong, his tone was still the same, which made Han Zhong feel that normal communication was a bit difficult.

After a while, Han Zhong said again: "Chen Xin, Dad has something to discuss with you."

Hearing his serious tone, Han Chen couldn't help standing up straight, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Han Zhong said, "I want to use the money to buy a house for your brother."

Han Chen froze for a moment and didn't answer for a while.

Han Zhong went on to say: "You know, his situation is different from yours. You can get a loan to buy a house, but he has no choice. What can he use to repay the loan? He is not young anymore. If he wants to get married and start a family, he must get a loan." Buy a house first, otherwise how can a decent woman live with him?"

Han Chenxin still didn't speak.

Han Zhong thought he had some idea, so he immediately said: "Don't worry, I will still pay you the down payment for buying a house, but it may be postponed for two years temporarily, let's settle your brother's matter first."

Han Chenxin put his left hand on the balcony and said, "Didn't you make up your mind, why did you tell me this?"

Han Zhongdao: "I'm still discussing with you. Your mother will definitely not agree to this matter. I plan not to tell her first. I will wait until the house is bought. As for your brother, I don't dare to give the money directly. He, to be honest, I'm afraid he won't know what to do with the money, and the money will be squandered if he doesn't buy the house. I'm over 50 years old, and I'll retire in two years. Don’t move anymore, it’s up to you to take care of the family affairs.”

Han Chenxin said calmly, "Does it include his affairs?"

Han Zhong leaned on the balcony, raised his hand and wiped his face, "I know I'm sorry for you when I think about him, and I'm sorry for him when I'm facing you. Regret is also nonsense, while I still have some energy in the past two years, I have to arrange you all. As for your sister, the girl has studied and found a good man to marry. Your mother and I will not worry about anything in the future. gone."

Speaking of this, Han Zhong paused for a moment, and then continued: "As for you and your brother, you know that his current situation is not as good as yours, so I want you to help him more. Dad is definitely not partial, but wants to May you both be well."

Han Zhong thought that Han Chenxin was unhappy because he bought a house for Sun Zheyang. In fact, Han Chenxin was not angry. He didn't care if Han Zhong was more partial to Sun Zheyang, and he never said that Han Zhong should keep all the money. Give him ideas.

When Han Zhong carefully mentioned this to Han Chenxin, Han Chenxin was thinking about what Han Zhong said just now, thinking that Sun Zheyang had found a woman to marry, started a family, and maybe had one or two children.How would Sun Zheyang treat his wife and children at that time?What kind of woman would his wife be?

Han Chenxin didn't respond to Han Zhong for a long time, and Han Zhong called his name again. He came back to his senses and asked in a daze, "How big a house do you plan to buy him?"

"I haven't thought about how big it is," Han Zhong said, "His house needs to be paid in full, and to be honest, I can only take out 60 yuan at most. As for how big it is and where to buy it, he has to figure it out by himself. It's just that you know that he is older than you, but he is not sensible at all. You should help him look at it. I think you get along well. If he can't listen to me, he can probably listen to yours to some extent. Persuasion, I will trouble you to have some snacks."

Han Chenxin didn't agree, but he didn't refuse either. He stood silently with Han Zhong for a while, and went back to his room to rest.

Lying on the bed, Han Chenxin remembered that Sun Zheyang didn't know that he would not go back at night, so he took out his mobile phone and called Sun Zheyang.

Sun Zheyang is still working in the video game city, but there is nothing to do in the game hall in front of him. He hides on the bench where the employees rest and plays with his mobile phone.

So Sun Zheyang answered Han Chenxin's call after only one ring, "Hello?" he said.

Han Chenxin didn't expect that Sun Zheyang would answer the phone so quickly. While he was still waiting for the next notification tone, he heard Sun Zheyang's deep voice ringing in his ears, and suddenly felt like he was startled. With a jump, the heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.
