When Gu Chonghua saw that, he understood what was going on.
He inwardly snorted coldly. He had a bad impression of the Sun family, so he did not sympathize with their current plight at all.
Gu Yunshen brought the herbs he had prepared. Gu Chonghua said, “Here are the herbs. Give them a dose every morning and every night. You must also turn them regularly and exercise their arms and legs. Perhaps they will recover slowly with care.”
“They’re getting on in years. They must not be agitated anymore. Go home!”
The Sun family was bewildered. This was a crushing blow. They had not expected two healthy old people to suddenly be paralyzed from a stroke.
Gu Chonghua knew what the Sun family were like, so he would not say any more at that point. After giving them some instructions, he told them to bring the old people home.
The entire Sun family was befuddled. But when they looked at the two old people lying in bed and at all the people crowded around them, they had no choice but to bring the two old folks back.
The watching crowd sighed. Two old people who were still active yesterday were paralyzed today. And both of them at the same time to boot.
But no one was too worried about the Sun family. After all, the Suns were relatively well off.
Many of them looked enviously at the Sun family’s many grandchildren. In these times, it wasn’t easy to raise so many children, but the Sun family had managed.
Gu Qingyao was in a good mood once the Sun Family went home. The new year was almost here. She made many treats for the children, so they studied even harder.
With the interspace to help her, her achievements in this lifetime would be even greater.
It was only five days to the new year when Gu Qingyao received news that the Sun family had split.
“Split? Who suggested it?” Gu Qingyao was deeply interested! She could guess who it was.
Mo Beihan smiled. “The Sun family’s eldest son.”
Gu Qingyao immediately laughed. The Sun family’s eldest son!
Wasn’t that Sun Mei’s father?
Sun Mei had another four older brothers. To be honest, Qin Yufeng had reason to be arrogant.
The Sun family was comparatively well-off. She was the eldest daughter-in-law and had borne four sons. She had also given birth to Sun Mei, the only girl in the Sun family. So her standing in the family was unshakable.
In the past, the Sun family had gotten by on the Gu family’s wealth. Now the treasure had vanished and the two old folks had suffered from a stroke. But the Sun family’s eldest son had his own secret stash. Of course, he was unwilling to share it with his brothers, so he had suggested splitting.
Mo Beihan looked at her shining eyes and laughed. “Guess how they’re splitting?”
Gu Qingyao’s eyes crinkled with laughter. “My guess is that the Sun family’s eldest son said that as the eldest son, he must take on a larger share of the burden. So he gave a larger portion of the household items to his brothers. He also volunteered to take on a larger share of supporting the two old folks. But the premise is that they must split.”
Mo Beihan laughed. His Yao Yao was so clever.
“You’re right. It was the eldest son who suggested splitting. Regarding food, he said that his four sons are all grown up and can work, so he can take a smaller share of food and his younger brothers and their wives can have more.
“As for taking care of the old folks, he’s the oldest, so of course he must take on more responsibility. The three brothers will take turns. The eldest son’s family will take care of them for half a year, and the responsibility will be divided equally between the second and third son for the rest of the year.”
Gu Qingyao laughed. “Under these circumstances, the other members of the Sun family will certainly agree to the split. After all, the two old folks have nothing left and there’s nothing to be gained from them. Under the circumstances, of course they will run if they can. The eldest son’s suggestion suits them down to the ground.”
