Chapter 261: Fate Is Not with Him
"Dad, I understand!"
"I’ll go write to Second Brother and Third Brother right away."
Yuan Yindi ultimately didn’t go against the old man.
Even though he was clever, in some matters, he still couldn’t match his father’s experience.
Of course, another reason Yuan Yindi didn’t insist on his own views was because he harbored some resentment towards his big nephew, Yuan Shougui.
After Yuan Yindi left, Mrs. Zeng looked at Old Yuan and urgently asked, "Old man, can’t we really bring Shougui back on the right path?"
"At least for now, it’s impossible!"
Old Yuan understood this kind of situation very clearly.
In his youth, Mu Ai, once the seed in his heart took root, it wasn’t easy to uproot.
"Old man, are we just going to watch?"
"That child Shougui, before, he wasn’t like this. How did he suddenly become like this?"
Mrs. Zeng’s eyes were a bit dazed, clearly reminiscing about the past.
As the first grandchild of the Yuan Family, Mrs. Zeng spent the most time with Yuan Shougui. Later, one by one, Yuan Shouyi, Yuan Shouxin, and the others were born, spreading her attention among the grandchildren more widely.
Because of this childhood bond, even as Yuan Shougui grew up, Mrs. Zeng still treated this eldest grandson in a special way.
But who would have thought, Yuan Shougui would change so quickly.
"How would I know?"
Old Yuan was also puzzled!
The once good eldest grandson, always seen by Old Yuan as the leader among the grandchildren, ended up choosing to part ways with the family for that girl he had met just a few times and probably barely spoken to.
Not to mention Mrs. Zeng couldn’t figure it out; even Old Yuan, having lived for so many years, couldn’t figure it out either.
"What a sin!"
Mrs. Zeng felt very uncomfortable inside.
"Old woman, don’t think too much!"
"Who knows what’s going to happen in the future?"
Old Yuan could only comfort his wife in this way, "Maybe Shougui will have great success!"
"I doubt it!"
Mrs. Zeng snorted, "Jiaojiao is the Yuan Family’s lucky star, and yet that kid keeps going against Jiaojiao. If he succeeds, wouldn’t it mean we’ve all been wrong?"
Hearing Mrs. Zeng’s words, Old Yuan was left speechless.
If this theory was right, then the eldest grandson really shouldn’t expect anything good.
Though he wasn’t fond of the eldest grandson, Old Yuan still hoped in his heart that Yuan Shougui could succeed.
However, things developed in such a coincidental way!
At the moment Mrs. Zeng said this, far away at the Ba River Camp in Sanchuan City, Yuan Shougui actually had an accident!
Because Sun Feng, the commander of the Ba River Camp, knew about Yuan Shougui’s relationship with Yuan Wangdi and Yuan Laidi, he planned to promote Yuan Shougui by giving him a simple task to easily earn merits, along with a team of experienced veterans.
But who would have thought, on the way, Yuan Shougui stepped on nothing and fell down a slope, breaking his arm in the process.
Even though Sun Feng had arranged a very easy task, no task, however easy, could include someone with a broken arm.
So, Yuan Shougui was sent back to the military camp.
Merits?
Nonexistent!
If it weren’t for Sun Feng’s protection, just based on Yuan Shougui’s mistake during the mission, he would have been punished.
"What a mess!"
Thinking about Yuan Shougui’s broken arm incident, Sun Feng felt a headache, unsure of what to say when he met Yuan Wangdi and Yuan Laidi.
