Chapter 880 - 881 Toxic Fatherly Love 13
"Your grandfather was the shopkeeper of our family’s store," she said.
"The shop was actually a small business started by my dad. It wasn’t very big, but it was enough to support our family of four, including my younger brother."
"Your grandfather was an orphan without parents from his childhood, and he grew up in our household. Later on, your great-grandfather liked his character and arranged for me to marry him."
"When I married your grandfather, your granduncle – my brother – passed away from an illness. To afford his medical treatment, we mortgaged the family shop."
"It was the grandmother who had taken care of me and my brother since we were little who covered the expenses. She said that she would put the shop in her name and after we took care of her in her old age, the shop would be returned to us."
"Unexpectedly, that decision saved our whole family. Our home was the only property we had left, and it seemed much nicer to live there as a family of four."
"After grandmother passed away, the shop was transferred to my name."
"As for these things, they were part of my dowry from my parents. I had intended to sell them for money, but at that time they weren’t worth much."
The old lady looked at these items, "They were originally meant to be your mother’s dowry. But with your mother’s temperament, how could I agree to that?"
The old lady let out a long sigh, "Thank goodness I didn’t give them to your mother, otherwise they definitely wouldn’t have been preserved."
