Siheyuan: Seventeen-year-old He Yuzhu

Chapter 174 Yi Zhonghai's Thoughts

Two days later, Yi Zhonghai returned from the hospital. Liu Haizhong was still angry and did not mention anything about bringing Liu Guangfu home.

He lost face in front of so many people, and was so angry when he saw Liu Guangfu that he didn't want to pay any attention to him.

Yi Zhonghai went there twice, hoping to reconcile them. Why would an adult like you and a child be so angry with each other?

But Liu Haizhong refused to listen and said that Liu Guangfu had nothing to do with him anymore.

If you want him to live in your house, let him live there. If you don’t want him to live there, throw him out. Anyway, don’t come to me.

Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to go back.

When he returned home, he looked at Liu Guangfu. The swelling on his face had subsided a lot. He had changed into a new set of clothes bought for him by an aunt. His injuries had also been treated and he was gradually recovering.

An idea popped into my mind.

I have no children and have long wanted to find someone to take care of me in my old age. I thought Jia Dongxu was a suitable candidate and could take care of him in everything. I never expected that Jia Dongxu has become like this and is completely unreliable.

Now Jia Dongxu is unreliable, we have to find a new candidate.

Since Liu Haizhong doesn't want Liu Guangfu anymore, I might as well keep Liu Guangfu.

He is young and easy to train.

If I treat him well, he will definitely remember my kindness when he grows up. And when I get old, he will definitely not ignore me.

Yi Zhonghai had good intentions, but after what happened to Jia Dongxu, he still had concerns. What if he raised another person like Jia Dongxu?

What's more, Liu Guangfu's parents are still alive.

Even if Liu Guangfu dislikes his parents, they are his biological son after all, and he will definitely treat them well in the future.

He thought he needed to give this matter more thought and discuss it with his wife.

He called the aunt out.

"Zhonghai, what did Lao Liu say? Should Guangfu go back?"

An old lady asked hurriedly as soon as she came out.

Liu Haizhong shook his head. "It's the same as before. I just arrived and before I could say a few words, he kicked me out."

The lady said, "Why is Lao Liu like this? No matter what, Guangfu is also his child. How can he just ignore him?"

"I'll go talk to him."

As she said that, she was about to go to Liu's house.

Yi Zhonghai stopped her and said, "It's useless for you to go. You will probably be kicked out like me."

Auntie was a little anxious, "There has to be an explanation for this matter. We can't let Guangfu live in our house forever."

"One or two days is fine, one or two months is fine too, but if it's one or two years, or even longer, it's still not appropriate."

Yi Zhonghai said what he had just thought, "I have thought about this matter. It is indeed inappropriate for Liu Guangfu to live in our house forever."

"After all, we are just neighbors, and there is no other relationship."

The lady nodded and said, "Zhonghai, you are right."

Yi Zhonghai added: "I have an idea, I don't know if it's appropriate, I want to discuss it with you."

An auntie said, "Zhong Hai, if you have anything to say, just say it. As long as this matter can be resolved, it will be fine."

Yi Zhonghai said: "I was thinking about whether we should adopt Guangfu as our godson. Then we can be considered a family and he can live in our house as long as he wants."

"Also, you know, we don't have any children. I've been so kind to the Jia family over the years just so that Dongxu can take care of us when we're old."

"But Dongxu is in this state now. He even attacked me a few days ago. I really can't count on him."

"If we adopt Liu Guangfu as our godson and treat him well, we might be able to count on him to provide for us in our old age."

"Do you think this is okay?"

Yi Zhonghai looked at the old lady and asked for her opinion.

When the aunt heard this suggestion, she was confused for a moment.

Not having children is her lifelong pain. She is very envious when she sees other people’s children surrounding their parents.

During these two days, Liu Guangfu lived in her house. She bought him food and clothes, and imagined him as her own child.

But she also knew that fantasy was just fantasy after all. Liu Guangfu was not her child, but Liu Haizhong's child, and would eventually return to the Liu family.

She wanted to resolve this matter before in order to make Liu Haizhong no longer angry and allow Liu Guangfu to return to his biological parents.

Now, after listening to what Yi Zhonghai said, she had an idea. If she adopted Liu Guangfu as her godson, then it would be like having a child.

The aunt was very excited.

She wanted to agree to it, but after calming down a bit, she said, "Zhong Hai, your suggestion is very good. I am happy to accept Liu Guangfu as my godson."

"But I don't know whether the child agrees, and I don't know whether Mr. Liu and his wife will agree."

"After all... still... ah..."

She sighed, feeling that this was not an easy matter to accomplish.

At this time, only one voice was heard saying, "Uncle, Aunt, I am willing to be your godson."

Yi Zhonghai looked up and saw that it was Liu Guangfu who had come out of the house.

He walked up to the two of them and repeated, "I am willing to be your godson."

While Yi Zhonghai was talking to an old lady, Liu Guangfu hid behind the door and eavesdropped.

When he heard Yi Zhonghai propose to adopt him as his godson, he was very happy.

Although Yi Zhonghai's reputation is not as good as before during this period, in Liu Guangfu's heart, he is still much better than his biological father.

Plus, he likes a lady very much.

Auntie had been so nice to him these past two days, buying him delicious food, new clothes, and playing with him. These were things he could never have dreamed of back home.

He was nervously waiting for the aunt's answer behind the door. He heard that she was happy but had some concerns, so he didn't care about anything else and walked out directly to make his attitude clear.

He didn't want to go back to the home that made him miserable, he wanted to stay with his aunt.
