Chapter 159 The Warmest in the World
She wanted to ask, Grandma, why are you so good to me? She also wanted to say, Grandma, please don’t treat me so well. But she couldn’t bring herself to ask, nor could she say it.
"Grandma, when did you get discharged?" she finally asked this question.
"Yesterday! If I didn’t get out, I’d have been bored to death!" Grandma Xu laughed and then sighed, "Grandma, ah, when you get old, you’re no use! I was almost completely better, but the hospital’s air-conditioning was too cold, and I got sick again, so they kept me a few more days. I even fainted the evening before you left on your business trip! Sister Qian had to call Gugu back, exhausted him, too. He was worried and stayed up several nights, lost so much weight."
The day before her business trip, wasn’t that the night she watched the stars with Hao Ren? It’s a part of her past she didn’t want to recall.
Grandma sighed, "Ah, when you get old, you just become a burden to young people."
"How could that be? Grandma! Everyone says having an elderly at home is like having a treasure! You’re a treasure indeed!" No matter what, Grandma was extremely important in Su Ronggui’s heart, just like her mom was to her.
Grandma laughed, "You, girl, you sure know how to talk, making Grandma happy! As long as you’re not annoyed by Grandma’s nagging, it’s good."
Tu Hengsha smiled, not saying that there would be no future opportunities to hear grandma "nag" anymore.
All the way, Grandma, in a gentle voice, asked how she was doing outside, if she was used to the food, whether the work was tiring, which spared her awkwardness. She just had to answer Grandma’s questions carefully, without worrying about the person in the driver’s seat, who focused on driving and remained silent.
The further they went, the deeper the twilight, yet the streetlights shone brighter.
Such is the way of the world.
