Xu Xiyan stood outside the shed and peered through the front window . Her grandfather slept on a bed in a dark room, not moving an inch . He really must be seriously ill…
Xu Xiyan was about to go in when she realized the door was locked from the outside . “Su Gang!” she scolded . “Is grandpa locked inside here?”
“The old man's dementia is getting worse every day,” Su Gang sighed . “Now he can't even recognize anyone . We used to leave the door unlocked and he ran away twice . That's why Su Lei asked me to lock the door . ”
Are these people insane? This would only worsen his dementia!
“Open the door!” Xu Xiyan ordered .
An awful stench burst out from the room as soon as the door was opened . “Miss, I think it's better if you don't go in . The old man poops and pisses everywhere . ” Su Gang covered his nose .
Xu Xiyan was already furious enough to kill someone . “Does no one come to clean his room?”
“It's useless, it'll get dirty again right away . ” Su Gang said . Su Lei had been the one giving orders in the mansion . No one would dare oppose her .
Xu Xiyan ignored the smell and went inside . Tears started to fill her eyes as she saw the situation inside .
The tiny room was messy, feces and pee stuck on the walls, a pile of dirty clothes heaped in one corner, the ground scattered with shredded newspapers .
A few plates sat on a small table, covered with old grains of rice that had mold on them .
Xu Xiyan's grandfather lay on an old wooden bed, his back turned towards her . There wasn't a spot on him that was clean .
Xu Xiyan's heart was broken by the state her grandfather was in . She couldn't control her tears . Her heart was trembling, her hands were trembling, her whole body was trembling .
She'd never known that the Xu family would treat her grandfather like this after she'd left .
They treated him like a prisoner, locking him in the tiny little room, his food far worse than a beggar's . Livestock had better lives than him .
And meanwhile, all those bastards lived a life of luxury .
Xu Xiyan turned and went back to find Su Lei .
Her grandmother and Su Lei were checking on the gifts that Xu Xinrou had brought back . There were ginsengs, edible bird's nests, herbs, branded clothes…
Xu Xiyan ignored Su Gang's warnings and stormed into the living room . Xu Xinrou saw that it was Xu Xiyan and turned to her mother . “Xu Xiyan is back . ”
Her grandmother asked, “Xu Xiyan? What gifts did you bring us?”
Su Lei answered, “She only brought back a box of mung bean cake for the old man . ”
Xu Xinrou smiled at Xu Xiyan's poor gift . She only brought cake? Hillarious!
The grandmother sighed, “Such manners! Well, that's Jing Ruyue's daughter for you . ”
Just as the three girls were insulting Xu Xiyan, she walked up and kicked the table, sending all the gifts flying .
