Chapter 67: The Unfilial Daughter
"This is our little grandson, he’s really handsome!" Seeing the child, Father Jiang and Mrs. Jiang immediately beamed like flowers. They looked down at the little grandson lying on the bed, utterly fond of him.
Just then, Little Reunion woke up. Mrs. Jiang saw this and was overjoyed, eagerly reaching out to hold him.
Little Reunion neither cried nor fussed, allowing Mrs. Jiang to hold him, even showing a slight smile.
Father Jiang also wanted to hold him, but upon thinking of his poor health, he refrained and could only look on longingly.
"Dad, Mom, please sit!" Jiang Xue brought over two stools, inviting her parents to sit down, especially her father, whose face didn’t look well.
In her past life, she harbored resentment towards them, so she didn’t care for them much. She didn’t even know what illness her father had. The only thing she knew was that her father often fell ill, and every time it happened, he had to stay in the hospital for ten days to half a month before he could come out.
Living life again, Jiang Xue felt she couldn’t continue in such a muddleheaded way. She first had to find out what illness her father had, then earn more money to take him to a big city to cure his illness.
Father Jiang and Mrs. Jiang sat down, looking at Jiang Xue, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say. Especially Father Jiang, who felt guilty toward Jiang Xue, knowing she could have finished high school, taken college entrance exams, and had a promising future, but lost everything because of his illness.
Now, because of his illness, she had to marry early. He felt ashamed towards Jiang Xue, feeling he was not a good father, feeling sorry for her.
Seeing her parents not speaking, Jiang Xue knew what concerned them and also what they were thinking. So, she spoke first, looking at Father Jiang and asking, "Dad, is your health better now?"
