Chapter 677: Chapter 677: Elderly Mr. Di Returns Home
“What is Father thinking?”
A mere mention of Di Ruoning made Liu Sisi’s brows furrow.
Di Yelei shook his head and cast a glance at Liu Sisi: “I noticed that the old man has been going to see them these days, but I have no idea what they talked about…”
Liu Sisi responded in a flat tone: “Oh!”
No matter the outcome, it seemed like the matter was about to reach its conclusion.
Until the end of July ended and the golden August of autumn arrived, Nan Tianzong was not sighted. To everyone’s surprise, Elderly Mr. Di suddenly made a decision!
“Dad! I absolutely cannot agree to this! How can I live in the city while you return to live in our old home! This is unacceptable!”
Di Yelei was the first to object.
Liu Sisi on the side quickly chimed in: “Father, why don’t you just stay here in the house? The rooms are vacant anyway. Living with us, it would be more convenient if something were to happen, wouldn’t it?”
Elderly Mr. Di dismissed them with a wave of his hand: “Third Child! It’s more convenient for your father to live in the mansion, but it’s not comfortable for me! It would be no problem to stay for a day or two. But having to stay for too long, your father genuinely feels itchy all over. I don’t feel good without handling a hoe!”
Di Yelei gritted his teeth, refusing to give in.
“Dad, I’m not refraining you from gaining silver by working in the fields. If you want to farm, I will order workers to prepare a piece of land in the back yard. You can plant vegetables and flowers every day. That would be great too, don’t you think?”
Elderly Mr. Di had a disappointed face and let out a long sigh: “It’s not just about land, it’s about people! I miss our home, miss our fellow villagers in the Upper Village! Third Child, if you really respect me, let me get back!”
Elderly Mr. Di was practically pleading with Di Yelei in a low voice!
“Dad, You….”
A sorrowful expression crossed Di Yelei’s face. He didn’t know what to do.
Liu Sisi looked at Ms. Zhao beside her and saw that she kept her mouth shut without a word.
Di Yelei gathered his thoughts: “Dad, If you really miss our fellow villagers, the day after tomorrow is my day off, I can take you back for a few days before we return.”
Elderly Mr. Di opened and closed his mouth repeatedly, then he issued his ultimatum: “Anyway, I am determined to go back! If you don’t send me back, I will leave on my own tomorrow morning. Weren’t we all walking when we first came to the city?”
After saying this, he didn’t wait for Di Yelei to respond, and turned around to leave the front hall with the help of his crutch.
“Dad! Dad——”
Di Yelei hurried after him and tried to prop up Elderly Mr. Di, who shrugged off his hand and continued to walk.
Di Yelei followed persistently: “Dad! Please listen to me… Father, tell me the real reason why you want to go back?” He finally managed to support Elderly Mr. Di’s hand.
Elderly Mr. Di finally stopped and let out a deep sigh.
“Third son! I feel guilty about you and YingEr! Isn’t this all because of Ruoning’s affair…” Elderly Mr. Di could not continue.
