Chapter 1651 Regret?
Now the old man suddenly remembered what the young mother looked like.
There are others who have suffered the same fate as that young mother.
The old man knows.
Even if she knew, she...
"I still feel bad for that kid."
The old man pressed the corners of his hot eyes again, "Is this bad for me?"
She had lost a child.
She knew the pain of losing a child.
She knew it clearly but still couldn't say calmly that the culprit deserved the punishment.
Because the culprit is that child...
He was the child she truly regarded as her grandson.
The old man covered his eyes with his hands.
The scalding liquid still flowed down.
It slipped through her fingers.
Why is she so sad?
Too many people left her.
Son, daughter-in-law, grandson, spouse
Even this child whom she treated as her grandson.
She even began to wonder if she was just too lucky.
She thought that God had mercy on her and she would not be left alone in the end.
Is she the only one left in the end?
Xiao Xiao didn't say anything.
He stood aside quietly.
He knew that Grandma Zhang needed to vent.
Just cry.
He also hesitated.
Because he could foresee this scene.
However, the little ghost committed an unforgivable mistake.
Still don't know how to restrain yourself.
Inability to tolerate.
The old man cried very suppressedly.
By the time she cried, she was no longer just crying for the child ghost.
I also cry for my loved ones who passed away too early.
Crying for being left alone in life.
She had endured it for too long.
We always say that we can’t let those guys in the sky worry.
She wants to let them know that she can live well on her own.
However, the incident with the child ghost dealt her a heavy blow.
The considerate and gentle child in her eyes killed other children.
Finally, the child left too.
But it left her with this fact.
The old man slowly bent down.
She is tired.
I heard a lot, learned a lot, and lost a lot today.
She was a little exhausted.
"Grandma Zhang."
Xiao Xiao reached out and held the old man's arm.
The old man turned his head slowly.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, outlining a bitter smile.
The expression on his face was a little dazed.
"Xiaoxiao."
She called the young man by his name.
"I don't know if I regret it. At that time, I wanted to eat the dim sum at Xiao's Tea House."
If she hadn't suddenly wanted to eat the dim sum at Xiao's Tea House, then...
Until now, no one has found the child.
Find out what that kid did.
In that case, her life would go on as usual.
Every day she would come down to feed the cat and chat with the child. Time passed slowly until she closed her eyes forever.
This won't be a long time.
She was a little worried about what would happen to the child if she left.
She had never seen the child with anyone else except her.
No, no one could see the child except her.
Now, all her worries were unnecessary.
Because...that child is no longer here.
……
"Amin."
A somewhat anxious voice came over.
Xiao Xiao turned his head.
It was Grandma Zhang’s neighbor across the street, the thin old lady.
……
Grandma Zhang quickly reached out and wiped her eyes.
He forced a smile on his face and looked at his old friend who was walking in a hurry. "Qinzi."
The voice that came out was unexpectedly hoarse.
"Cough cough~"
Grandma Zhang cleared her cough a few times.
With a hint of concealment.
……
"I went to the place where you usually feed the cats and didn't see you, but I knocked on your door before I came, and no one answered, so I wondered where you were going-"
The thin old man's voice suddenly stopped.
As she walked closer, she could see clearly what was happening on Grandma Zhang's face through the sunlight filtering through the gaps between the leaves.
She frowned, a worried look on her face, "Amin, what's wrong with you?"
"What happened?"
"What happened?"
Grandma Zhang smiled and said, "What could possibly happen to me?"
"Look, isn't it fine?"
"Don't fool me."
The thin old man is not so easy to fool.
"Your eyes are red, and you still say nothing is wrong?"
"Where's the liar?"
"Be honest."
The thin old man grabbed Grandma Zhang's arm and looked the old man in front of him up and down, "What happened?"
Ever since Grandma Zhang's husband passed away, the old woman, who had been depressed for a while, seemed to have come to her senses and found something to do, such as feeding cats. She hadn't seen a gloomy look on Grandma Zhang's face for a long time.
She was sure that something had happened just now.
No wonder I didn’t find Grandma Zhang at the old place.
"Hey, you're going to make me anxious to death."
The thin old man was a little annoyed by Grandma Zhang's silence, "Hurry up and speak!"
"Don't keep anything in your heart."
"What's the point of keeping it in your heart?"
"Tell me, maybe I can help you?"
The wrinkles at the corners of Grandma Zhang's eyes relaxed and she smiled slightly, "It's really nothing."
"Then why are you crying?"
The thin old man presented strong evidence.
She believed what she saw more than what Grandma Zhang said.
"Young man, you say."
The thin old man looked at Xiao Xiao.
When she arrived, she saw this young man who was not a stranger to her.
She thought that Grandma Zhang had asked someone to send some snacks over again.
Before she had time to greet the young man, she noticed that something was wrong with Grandma Zhang.
Naturally, everyone's attention was on Grandma Zhang.
Now that she couldn't get any answers from Grandma Zhang, she turned her attention to this young man.
I just don’t know if this young man had always been with Grandma Zhang before, or if he just met Grandma Zhang earlier than her?
If it was the latter, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to get any answer.
……
Grandma Zhang shook her head helplessly.
"You, don't you really believe what I say?"
"If you were me, would you believe it?"
The thin old man rolled his eyes.
"…I'm really fine."
Grandma Zhang sighed softly, with a faint smile on her face, "Just now, among the cats I fed before..."
The thin old woman's heart skipped a beat. She felt that she had almost guessed what Grandma Zhang would say next.
"One died."
really.
The thin old man's eyebrows that were raised when he asked the question drooped down, "Sorry."
She knew that Grandma Zhang loved the kittens very much.
Grandma Zhang must have been very sad to find out that one of the kittens was dead.
She is so ignorant and keeps digging into the matter.
……
Grandma Zhang laughed, "What do you have to be sorry about?"
"I know you are worried about me."
"Thank you."
She still had friends around to care for her after she had just lost a child she considered a grandchild.
She felt very warm.
The thin old man pursed his lips, unable to think of any words of comfort for a moment, and finally said dryly, "Don't be too sad."
ps: Thank you Yaosu~ for the reward~(*︶*)!
