Siheyuan: I just want to live

When He Daqing said this, his eyes narrowed slightly, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, but this smile made people feel an inexplicable chill.

There was a hint of cunning and calculation in his eyes, as if he was planning some conspiracy. However, facing He Daqing's strange expression, Chen Feng was not afraid at all.

After all, he knew clearly that He Daqing would never dare to do anything excessive to him in front of his son-in-law who was a public security officer.

After hearing what He Daqing said, Chen Feng remained calm and composed, with a faint smile on his face. He responded slowly.

"Master He, actually, twenty-five years doesn't sound like a short time, but in fact, if Sha Zhu behaves well in prison, I think he should be able to be released at your age."

"For people of your age, you are in your prime and full of energy. After Shazhu comes out, you can still continue to make a living!"

Chen Feng was not saying this nonsense. When Sha Zhu came out, it was the era of reform and opening up. At that time, Sha Zhu was already in his fifties, which was the golden age for entrepreneurship.

Sha Zhu has excellent cooking skills. Even if he doesn’t want to start a business, he can still find a high-paying job with his skills.

At this time, Sha Zhu had no children to support and no other burdens. With the help of his sister, he would live a comfortable life. Chen Feng could fully imagine how happy and comfortable Sha Zhu's later years would be.

Although Chen Feng knew everything about the future development, He Daqing knew nothing! He only knew that Sha Zhu was sentenced to 25 years in prison. When Sha Zhu came out, no factory or enterprise would want him.

Since no one wants him, all of Shazhu's cooking skills are wasted. When Shazhu is released, his life will definitely be insecure.

He Daqing could now imagine how miserable Sha Zhu's later years would be.

So, when he heard what Chen Feng said, he almost couldn't help but punch Chen Feng's annoying smiling face.

However, He Daqing finally restrained his impulse, because he knew that if he really hit Chen Feng, if Chen Feng got serious, he would probably be sent to prison to keep company with Sha Zhu.

So He Daqing took a deep breath, and then said to Chen Feng, "Chen Feng! At my age, I am not in my prime. Let's put it aside for now."

"You said that Sha Zhu is going to be imprisoned for 25 years. How are you going to solve my retirement problem? After all, I only have Sha Zhu, your biological son. Now he is going to be imprisoned for 25 years. How are you going to solve my retirement problem in the future?"

He Daqing said to Chen Feng with a smile as if jokingly, "How about you help me with my old age, Chen Feng?"

Chen Feng almost sprained his waist when he heard what He Daqing said. Chen Feng heard what he said before and thought he was going to do something. He didn't expect that he would say this at the end.

Chen Feng definitely couldn't agree to He Daqing's final suggestion to help him with his old age! He wasn't sick, so why would he find a father for himself?

Moreover, considering He Daqing's habit of colluding with the widow, even if I provide for him in his old age, not only will I not get any benefit from him, but He Daqing may even continue to support the widow with his own things.

This is a thankless task, anyone can do it, but Chen Feng definitely won't do it.

So Chen Feng still smiled and said to He Daqing: "Master He, you are joking! How could it be possible for an outsider like me to interfere in your retirement affairs?"

After hearing this, He Daqing showed a trace of helplessness on his face, and felt a little lost in his heart. He knew his situation, but when he heard Chen Feng say this, he couldn't help but sigh.

Chen Feng continued, "Although your biological son is in prison, don't you still have a stepson in Baoding? After all, a stepson is also a son, and he has to call you dad, right?"

He Daqing nodded slightly, with a complicated look in his eyes. He thought of his stepson in Baoding, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

Although his stepson is not his biological son, they have a deep bond after years of getting along. He believes that his stepson will definitely not ignore him.

Chen Feng continued, "Besides your stepson, don't you still have Yu Shui and her husband? As the saying goes, a son-in-law is half a son. I believe that in the end, Yu Shui and her husband will not ignore you!"

He Daqing felt a little relieved when he heard this. After two days of contact, he knew that his daughter Yushui was very filial and his son-in-law was also very good to him.

Thinking of this, he felt a little relieved. At least he was not completely without support in terms of retirement. If all else failed, he could go to his daughter and son-in-law for help!

Although he said so, He Daqing was still very unhappy that his own son could not provide for him in his old age.

While He Daqing was still thinking, Chen Feng thought he still had some concerns. Seeing this, Chen Feng recalled the plot.

It seems that after the death of Bai Guafu, He Daqing was not only driven out of the house by Bai Guafu's son, but also all his property was plundered without leaving him a penny. In the end, He Daqing wandered in Baoding for several years.

Thinking of this, Chen Feng looked at He Daqing with a slightly pity look. To be honest, he heard that in the original book, He Daqing and Sha Zhu's later years were not very good.

In Chen Feng's opinion, this is the consequence of being fond of widows and neglecting their families. Didn't you see that Dorgon was deceived by widows, let alone ordinary people like the He family father and son?

Chen Feng looked at He Daqing and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "This is fate!" However, he also understood that everyone has their own choices and life paths, whether right or wrong, they must bear the consequences themselves.

At this time, He Daqing didn't know what Chen Feng was thinking, he was still immersed in his own thoughts. Maybe he was thinking about how to go in the future, or recalling the past.

Chen Feng took a deep breath and decided not to think about these things anymore. He knew that life had to go on no matter what. And for He Daqing, he also needed to re-examine his life and make the right choice.

In this era full of uncertainties, people are always faced with various challenges and opportunities. Only by continuous efforts and struggles can we show our value on the stage of life.

Chen Feng believes that as long as He Daqing can let go of the burden of the past and face reality bravely, he will be able to find his own happiness. After all, life is always full of hope.

Although Chen Feng didn't want to get involved in He Daqing's affairs from the bottom of his heart, when he thought of He Yushui's face and the fact that He Daqing didn't say anything unpleasant today, Chen Feng finally decided to persuade him.

As for whether He Daqing will listen to it, that is his own choice.

So, Chen Feng said to He Daqing with a smile on his face, as if he was joking.

"Master He, are you afraid that the rain will not provide for your retirement in the future? If you really have such concerns, Master He, I can give you an idea."

He Daqing, who was in deep thought, heard Chen Feng's words, and slowly raised his head, revealing his gloomy face. His pair of dead fish-like eyes stared at Chen Feng, but he did not respond. He just waited quietly for Chen Feng to continue.

Seeing this, Chen Feng raised his lips slightly, and then continued: "Master He, in my opinion, you should send some money to Yu Shui every month and let her save it for you."

His eyes fell on He Daqing with a hint of concern and seriousness.

"If no one is willing to take care of you in the future, you can use this money for your old age. In this way, even in your old age, you don't have to worry about no one to support you, and you can also avoid the dilemma of having no money to use."

Chen Feng spoke earnestly, hoping to attract He Daqing's attention.

However, He Daqing did not respond immediately. He looked at the food in his hand silently, as if thinking about something. Perhaps he needed some time to digest Chen Feng's suggestion, or he had his own ideas and plans.

Chen Feng sighed inwardly when he saw He Daqing's reaction. He knew that this problem was not easy for He Daqing to solve, but he had tried his best to provide a feasible solution. As for whether He Daqing would accept and take action, that was up to him.

Under He Daqing's gaze, Chen Feng shook his head helplessly, and then said: "Master He, I have given you an idea. I have some things to deal with at home, so I can't chat with you anymore. See you later!"

After saying these words, Chen Feng stood up without hesitation and no longer paid attention to He Daqing and the other two.

He turned and walked towards the backyard, leaving He Daqing and others to think alone whether to do as Chen Feng said.

Watching Chen Feng walk further and further away until he disappeared, He Yushui walked forward, gently took He Daqing's arm, and said softly: "Dad, it's getting late, you have to go back to the house and rest."

Although He Daqing looked very old at this moment, he was actually only in his fifties and in the prime of his life.

According to Chen Feng, he is at the prime of his life at this age. Therefore, he does not need the support of others.

However, facing his daughter who was so intimate, gentle and considerate holding his arm, He Daqing's heart softened. He nodded silently, then obediently let He Yushui support him and slowly walked towards Sha Zhu's house.

Seeing this, Zhang Jianjun, who was standing nearby, quickly quickened his pace to He Daqing's side and reached out to hold He Daqing's other arm.

In response to Zhang Jianjun's actions, He Daqing just turned his head and glanced at him without expressing any objection.

In this way, He Daqing, supported by He Yushui and Zhang Jianjun, slowly walked towards Sha Zhu's house.
