Chapter 127 How could I know that he would do such a thing?
So, the three aunts and He Yuliang discussed the time and decided to go to the new restaurant together to taste the food next time.
Time passed quietly, and the three aunts gradually packed their luggage and prepared to say goodbye. When saying goodbye, they hugged each other and expressed their care and blessings to each other.
"Come and visit us again next time. We still have a lot to talk about." He Yuliang's mother said with a smile.
“Of course, next time we come, we will definitely bring more delicious food.” The three aunts responded excitedly.
Yan Jie Di rushed into He Yuliang's yard, her eyes showing a hint of anxiety and excitement. He Yuliang was standing in the yard tidying up the garden, and when he saw her coming, he couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Sister Jie Di, why are you so anxious? What happened?"
Yan Jiedi stopped panting, took a few breaths, and then said, "Yuliang, go and have a look. There is a kitten trapped in the corner of the yard. It looks injured."
He Yuliang immediately put down his tools and followed Yan Jiedi to the corner of the yard. He saw a kitten curled up in the corner, looking frightened, trembling, and looking very pitiful.
"This kitten doesn't look well. We have to help it quickly." He Yuliang squatted down and tried to get closer to the kitten, but the kitten whimpered softly and dodged backwards.
"Maybe he was frightened and doesn't dare to get close to people." Yan Jiedi said cautiously.
He Yuliang nodded. He knew he had to take it slow and not scare the kitten. So he soothed it softly and slowly approached the kitten.
"Shh, it's okay, kitten, we are here to help you." He Yuliang said softly, slowly reaching out his hand and trying to stroke the kitten's head.
The kitten hesitated for a moment, but was finally moved by He Yuliang's tenderness and slowly moved closer to his hand. He Yuliang gently touched the kitten's head, and the kitten closed its eyes, seeming to feel at ease.
"Sister Jie Di, please get some cat food and water so I can see if anyone is injured." He Yuliang said to Yan Jie Di.
Yan Jie Di nodded and went to the house to get cat food and water. She quickly returned to the yard with the food and water and placed them next to He Yuliang.
He Yuliang carefully checked the kitten's body and found that one of its front paws seemed to be injured, with some scratches and bleeding. He gently wiped the wound for the kitten and applied disinfectant and medicine.
The kitten seemed to feel He Yuliang's intentions. It lay quietly on the ground with its eyes closed, occasionally purring softly.
"This kitten looks like a stray cat. It may have been injured outside, but it should be fine now," said He Yuliang.
Yan Jiedi looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't help but sigh: "You are so kind-hearted that even this little cat can feel your warmth."
He Yuliang smiled and said nothing. He just gently touched the kitten's head, hoping that it would recover soon.
In this way, He Yuliang and Yan Jiedi took care of the kitten together until it fully recovered. After a period of recuperation, the kitten was refreshed and its body recovered.
Yan Jiedi pushed away Jia Zhang who was coming towards her and rushed into the house, starting to curse.
"Oh, Jie Di, what's wrong with you? Why do you start cursing as soon as you enter the door?" Jia Zhang asked in surprise.
Yan Jie Di said angrily: "Aunt Jia, do you know? My old man went to gamble again and lost all the money in the family! This time it's really a big deal!"
After hearing this, Jia Zhang's face suddenly darkened. She knew that gambling was a very serious problem and would bring great trouble to the whole family. She took a deep breath, tried to stay calm, and then asked, "Jie Di, are you sure?"
Yan Jie Di nodded and said, "Yes, I saw him take the family's passbook and go out, and then he didn't come back all day."
Jia Zhang was silent for a moment, then decided to find out the truth. "Let's not worry, I'll go find him and see what happened." She said to Yan Jie Di.
The two of them left the house together and walked towards the casino. Along the way, Yan Jiedi kept blaming her husband, her voice full of anger and disappointment.
Jia Zhang didn't say anything. She knew that this was not the time to blame, but the time to solve the problem. She was determined to find out the root of the problem and then find a way to solve it.
Soon, they arrived at the block where the casino was located. It was bustling with people coming and going, and many gamblers and onlookers gathered at the entrance of the casino.
Jia Zhang frowned. She knew the temptation of gambling and its harm. She was determined to find her husband and stop him from gambling.
The two came to a nearby casino, and Jia Zhang was looking for him while asking people around. Finally, in a corner, she found her husband, who was sitting at the gambling table, looking haggard and lonely.
"Old Zhang, what's wrong with you? Why are you here again?" Jia Zhang walked forward, with a hint of blame and concern in her voice.
Old Zhang raised his head and saw Jia Zhang and Yan Jie Di, with a trace of embarrassment and guilt on his face. He lowered his head, not daring to meet their gazes.
"Aunt Jia, Jie Di, I...I..." Old Zhang stammered and couldn't speak.
Jia Zhang sighed. She understood how Lao Zhang felt at the moment. She walked over to him, patted his shoulder gently, and said softly, "Lao Zhang, you know how much gambling affects our family. You can't do this anymore."
Lao Zhang closed his eyes, tears streaming down his cheeks. He knew he was wrong, but he couldn't help himself.
Jia Zhang was determined to help Lao Zhang get out of the gambling trap. She took Lao Zhang's hand and said, "Lao Zhang, let's go home. I will help you quit gambling and start over."
After hearing this, a glimmer of hope flashed in Lao Zhang's eyes. He knew that he couldn't go on like this, and he needed Jia Zhang's support and help.
So, Jia Zhang and Yan Jie Di took Lao Zhang home. After returning home, Jia Zhang began to make a gambling quitting plan for Lao Zhang, and at the same time comforted him, encouraging him to face the problem bravely and cheer up again.
Seeing Yan Jie Di's loss of composure, He Yuliang hurried forward to grab her arm and tried to comfort her. But Yan Jie Di broke free from He Yuliang's hand and rushed towards Jia Zhang angrily.
"What's wrong with you, old man? Don't you have any sense of family responsibility at all?" Yan Jiedi asked angrily.
Jia Zhang was shocked by Yan Jie Di's attitude. She hurriedly explained, "Jie Di, listen to me. I didn't know that Lao Zhang would go gambling. I was busy doing housework at home. How could I know that he would do such a thing?"
