Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 869 - 752: Trouble in the Old House (Part 2)

"You clearly know that’s not what I’m talking about?"

"I don’t understand?"

"You caused my mom’s injury, right? I know you want revenge, but you shouldn’t hurt the innocent. After all, it has nothing to do with her. And as for Dad, he did make mistakes and he knows it. He’s so old now that he can’t take your torment. Right or wrong, you can’t escape the fact that he’s your father. Since you’re father and son, what can’t you let go of?"

Chen Haichang, sitting to the side, gave a mocking chuckle. "True to your military roots, you understand and see things clearly. Unfortunately, you aren’t me, so how would you understand the resentment in my heart, the suffering of my mother?"

"Third Brother, what exactly do you want?"

"Heh, I’ll answer to Second Brother calling me Third Brother. Today, I’ll tell you straight, I was only targeting the two elders of the Mei Family, I have no intention of harming anyone else."

"Why target the old lady?"

Chen Haichang sneered, "I didn’t target her, it’s her own fault for being obtuse. What could I do?"

"Your approach is too extreme. Don’t you realize that while you’re destroying them, you’re destroying yourself? You’re still young and have a long road ahead," Mei Shuqing patiently warned.

"There’s nothing extreme about it; I cherish my life. I consider everything carefully. You can rest assured, I can guarantee not to harm his life, although I can’t promise he won’t become so upset one day that he brings himself down."

"You..."

"Third Uncle, are you planning to settle down here?" asked Mei Lang Jun, who was in the room, interrupting his father’s words.

Chen Haichang raised an eyebrow, thinking this person was clever, and replied truthfully, "No, I have my own affairs. Of course, during the New Year and festivals, I will definitely come back to ’visit’ my old father."

"Of course, of course, Third Uncle coming back to see his own father, that’s filial piety, as it should be," Mei Lang Jun laughed.

Chen Haichang snorted, "I wonder if Second Brother still plans to let his ’filial’ younger brother stay the night?"

"Sure, sure, my mom is already tidying up for Third Uncle."

Mei Lang Jun nodded and smiled. Just as he finished speaking, Liang Qian came over. "It’s ready."

"Thank you, Second Sister-in-law," Chen Haichang said, glancing at Mei Shuqing and his son, and then turned to follow Liang Qian out.

Mei Lang Jun thought Chen Haichang had a point. At his age, he could be like a grandfather, which made Mei Lang Jun itch.

As soon as Chen Haichang was out the door, Mei Lang Jun couldn’t resist asking, "Dad, now it’s just the two of us here, be honest, do you have anything going on outside?"

"What do you mean?" Mei Shuqing was briefly stunned by his son’s words but quickly realized and suddenly got angry, delivering a rebuke that Mei Lang Jun dodged.

"You brat, actually doubting your own father, you’ve got some nerve."

"I’m just confirming, why get so mad all of a sudden? You wouldn’t have..."

Before he could finish, Chen Haichang, who had just stepped out, suddenly popped his head back in to stoke the fire. "Maybe you should investigate; there might really be something."

Chen Haichang’s words gave Mei Shuqing a headache, and he slammed the table in fury. "What nonsense, as if I’d be like them, Mei Shuqing!"

"Dad, maybe you should tell Mom that," Mei Lang Jun pointed toward the door, indicating the intimidating look his mom had just shot over.

Mei Shuqing, feeling a headache, wanted to hit someone. The butterfly effect from the old man and the eldest son was causing trouble for him.

"Get lost, get lost, go to bed."

"Yes, sir, I’m leaving now. Oh, by the way, Dad, I don’t think this Third Uncle is some reckless thug. He just harbors resentment for what Grandpa did back then. Although I don’t know what Grandpa did, I’m pretty sure it was worse than what my eldest uncle did. Han Yi hated my eldest uncle so much, let alone the kind of resentment Third Uncle has. If it were me, I would’ve shot the person who bullied my mom long ago." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

"Watch what you’re saying, you brat!" Mei Shuqing lifted his foot to kick his son.

"I’m just citing an example, just an example, Dad. You also heard it just now; he doesn’t come here often, only occasionally. Coming for a few days is just to upset Grandpa a little. I think that’s basically what Third Uncle was saying. The things he said to Grandpa were just to scare him a bit. Let’s not get involved. Let them make a fuss. Nothing big will come of it anyway. But... how come Grandpa can’t see through it at all?"
