Married at First Sight Chapter 5214
Ye Jianni was punished by law, serving over a decade in prison. Now released, she’s old and in poor health, unable to have more children. Their beloved son, Yangyang, is their only heir.
When the elderly couple first retired, they were energetic and helped their daughter raise her three grandchildren—what did they get in return?
Their daughter’s family still habitually comes back to their parents’ home to take things, sponging off them.
Hong Lin now harbors many grievances against his older sister, Hong Ying, after Ye Jianni’s release. Hong Ying is afraid of her and dares not return to her parents’ home for anything .
Evil people are ultimately punished by other evil people.
When the Zhou couple are ill, their three grandchildren don’t even call, let alone show any concern. Even when they’re hospitalized, the grandchildren don’t visit.
They only know their grandparents; if their in-laws are unwell, the grandchildren they raised are incredibly attentive.
The elderly couple only realized their mistake when Yangyang grew up and their energy waned, making it impossible for them to help their daughter any longer. It was too late then.
A grandson is always someone else’s grandson.
Even if Zhou Yang didn’t particularly like his grandparents, he was still their grandson and would be filial to them.
So, the elderly couple only doted on their own grandson, showing only superficial affection to their three grandsons.
Zhou Hongying was envious and complained that her parents favored her brother’s children and treated her children badly, which infuriated the elderly couple. Their
youngest grandson, Xiaobao, was already in his thirties and had a job. Not only did he not give the elderly couple any money for holidays, but Zhou Hongying even demanded large sums of money from her parents for her three children.
Only their grandson, Zhou Yang, gave them money every year for the New Year, and he even paid for various nutritional supplements suitable for the elderly.
“Grandpas!”
The receptionist, seeing the elderly couple’s unsteady steps, quickly went to help them.
“Grandpas, we’ll take you upstairs. Mr. Zhou is in a meeting right now, please go upstairs and wait.”
“Okay, thank you,”
the elderly couple thanked her with smiles. They
were very mindful of their manners, afraid of embarrassing their grandson if they didn’t do a good job.
The two receptionists escorted the two elderly people into the elevator, then accompanied them to the top floor, handing them over to Zhou Yang’s secretary before leaving.
The secretary then led the two elderly people into the VIP room, invited them to sit on the sofa, poured them each a glass of warm water, and brought some fruit and soft snacks suitable for the elderly.
After doing all this, the secretary said to the two elderly people, “Mr. Zhou is still in a meeting, please wait a moment, I’ll be outside, please call me anytime if you need anything.”
Mrs. Zhou quickly asked, “How long will Yangyang’s meeting take?”
The secretary checked the time and said, “About half an hour more.”
Mrs. Zhou said, “Oh, another half hour? Then we’ll sit for a while.”
