Chapter 1266 - 758: Going Home
If they weren’t forced to the brink, Li Baohan and his wife would never be willing to leave their homeland. But incident after incident of disgraceful matters left them with no courage to stay there any longer.
Originally, they thought about retiring to the countryside, but their nephew’s advice was right: their two sons wouldn’t let them live peacefully. Even if they continued to tolerate it out of familial love, their sons wouldn’t appreciate it.
Thus, leaving for a place where their sons couldn’t disturb them was the best way out. So, after Luo Ye suggested it, the couple readily agreed.
As for Li Baoquan and his family, there was no need for them to come along for now. They had initially intended to accompany because they were worried about Li Baohan and his wife.
Since Luo Ye had promised such good conditions, they felt at ease. However, they’d already agreed that when Li Baoquan retired, he and his wife would go to Ludong to find his brother and sister-in-law.
Luo Ye had promised that by then, their treatment would be the same. This showed that Li Baoquan’s family was sincere, as they weren’t eager to follow suit despite such a promise.
The Liangyou Elderly Home in Ludong is located in the city center. This location was selected considering various factors like transportation, shopping, and healthcare, which are much more convenient in the city center than elsewhere.
Of course, this also increased the cost quite a bit. Fortunately, besides Liangyou’s investment, there was generous sponsorship from major families like Ye, Wen, Wu, Qu, and Feng and donations from some medium and large enterprises, ensuring that the Elderly Home operated without any pressure.
The nursing home covers ten hectares, with outer walls in heavy ancient red. The residential and office buildings are clean white, and the roofs have overhanging red eaves.
Entering in, there is a large green lawn, lush privets on both sides of the spacious paths, and further on, the sports ground, entertainment area, and leisure area are seamlessly connected with complete functions.
The car stopped in front of the office building of the Liangyou Elderly Home. Li Baohan and his wife hadn’t yet shaken off the feeling of flying high in the clouds when Luo Ye turned back and smiled at them: "We’ve arrived."
Dean Lin Qiuxian of the Liangyou Elderly Home in Ludong, who had long been informed, hurriedly came out with two assistants, looking a bit nervous as she looked at Luo Ye, who was getting out of the car: "Chairman Luo, hello. Everything is arranged as you said."
Two assistants had quickly helped Li Baohan and his wife out of the car. Seeing the two elderly who could barely stand, they couldn’t help but wonder in their hearts, can these two shaky elderly even take care of others?
Luo Ye nodded at Lin Qiuxian: "First, take Grandpa Li and Aunt Li to where they’ll stay." She said as she gently held the elderly lady’s arm and softly said, "Let’s put the luggage down first, and later, Dean Li will have someone show you around. No rush to work. Get to know the environment first."
"No, we can’t do anything that would make you lose face," said Li Baohan. Although he had seen a bit more of the world, he had already collected himself, and from the expressions of the two staff members, he discerned the doubt and seriously looked at Lin Qiuxian, "Dean Lin, it’s a great blessing for us to know Luoluo, but since we’re here, we’ll work hard."
"Right now, we’re just a bit dizzy from the car ride, but after a night’s rest, we’ll be good. My wife is good at cooking and taking care of others."
"I do carpentry and am pretty good with repairs, and though I can’t compare to young guys for heavy labor, I certainly won’t slack off."
Lin Qiuxian cast a displeased look at her two assistants and moved the one supporting Grandpa Li aside, taking over herself: "Grandpa, Grandma, one look and I can tell you two are hardworking people, but after such a tiring ride, it’s best to listen to Chairman Luo and rest first before starting work."
Seeing Li Baohan wanted to insist, Luo Ye gave him a stern look: "If you keep arguing, I won’t acknowledge knowing you in the future."
"Old man, listen to Luoluo. No matter how we act, we’ll never repay this girl in our lifetime. Her even bringing us here is already helping us, so it would be wrong to disrespect her good intentions by being so distant."
"Aunt Li is the sensible one." Luo Ye pouted at Li Baohan, "Grandpa, at critical times, you’re not as free-spirited as Grandma."
Li Baohan smiled sheepishly, not knowing what to say.
Only when the couple entered their own place did they truly feel that this pie from the sky was too big.
Snow-white walls, a spacious and bright central hall, two bedrooms – one large and one small, a clean and tidy kitchen and bathroom, air conditioning, heating, electric appliances, daily necessities – everything was complete. Compared to their original house, it was like comparing heaven and earth.
