Chapter 493 Two Views
Grandpa Man used to be a soldier and had fought in wars. He had the air of a soldier and his temper was really not good. He was impatient and irritable, and he liked to yell at people.

Now that I’m old, I’ve also begun to learn to cultivate my character.

He also has a gentle hobby: playing chess.

However, it is said that it is difficult to change one's nature.

Even until his death, he is still just a bamboo cannon.

It would be fine if he didn't talk to the young couple now. Once he started talking, he might not listen to their explanation.

Especially after noticing the child's reaction to the couple, his stiff body looked as pitiful as a kitten. If he had been a few years earlier, he would have scolded the couple immediately.

How do you be a parent?
Grandpa Man felt heartbroken and pity for his granddaughter, and became increasingly dissatisfied with his son and daughter-in-law.

……

As a married couple for decades, Grandma Luo naturally knows Grandpa Man’s temper.

She was a little worried that Grandpa Man would come up and scold her.

Let’s not talk about her son for now. After all, the daughter-in-law is her stepmother, and she understands the difficulties of being a stepmother.

However, even though she understood the situation, after this happened, she couldn't help but think: She is a stepmother after all, how could she take care of her ex-husband's child as she would her own child?

Therefore, although she was unwilling to embarrass her daughter-in-law before figuring out the whole thing, after all, her son still had to live with his wife, and little Tianxing also needed the care of her stepmother, but the words she said still couldn't help but carry a bit of accusation and dissatisfaction.

"Xiao Tang, why didn't you go pick up Xiao Mantianxing today?"

……

"Ah, Mom, isn't there a school bus to pick us up?"

Aunt Tang looked puzzled, "Besides, Mom, why is Baby's Breath here with you?"

"Mom, what's going on?"

Uncle Man felt something was wrong the moment he received the call from Grandpa Man, but Grandpa Man just told him and his wife to come over right away and then hung up the phone, leaving him no chance to ask anything.

……

When he saw little Gypsophila at Grandpa Man’s house, he didn’t think there was anything wrong. He thought that the parents missed the child so they took the child home.

But now it seems that this is not the case?

He looked at his wife and then turned his gaze to Grandma Luo.

……

Grandma Luo stared at Aunt Tang's innocent and puzzled expression for a while before she slowly said, "The kindergarten bus is broken, so there's no way to send the children home."

"The kindergarten sent you a message and called you."

"You answered the phone at that time, too."

"And promised to pick up the child after kindergarten."

Aunt Tang looked shocked and seemed to want to say something, but Grandma Luo didn't give her a chance and continued to talk, "All the children in the kindergarten have left. The teacher also called you many times, but no one answered."

"Why don't you answer the phone?"

"Why don't you pick up the kids?"

"Even if you really have something urgent to do, you shouldn't have no time to make a phone call, right?"

"Is this how you take care of children?"

Originally, Grandma Luo didn't want to say the last sentence, but after the previous questioning, by the time she reacted, she blurted out this sentence.

She was really a little angry.

When she thought that maybe Xiao Tang deliberately didn't pick up the child, she felt uneasy and her heart felt like a fire was burning, making her unable to control her emotions.

……

"Mom, I really didn't receive the call."

Aunt Tang's expression was eager and sincere, "I took Xiao Changan to my mother's house today."

Little Chang'an is the son of Aunt Tang and Uncle Man.

"I originally wanted to rush home to cook before Xiao Mantianxing got out of school." "Who knew that Xiao Changan suddenly got a stomachache and spent a long time in the hospital waiting in line and getting saline drips."

"I was busy taking care of the kids at the time and my phone was on silent, so I probably didn't notice the call."

……

"When we came out of the hospital, it was already dark."

"I was just about to take a taxi home when Xiuming called."

Uncle Man’s full name is Man Xiuming.

"I left little Chang'an at my mother's house and hurried over here."

Aunt Tang spoke clearly and sincerely, and then she seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Mom, how did the little baby's breath get to you?"

“Yes…” Did you take it back?

Uncle Man had just uttered a word when he was interrupted by Grandma Luo, "How did you get here?"

"It was sent by Xiao Mantianxing's teacher himself!"

"Luckily I met a responsible teacher, otherwise, if the child was lost, I wonder what you would do?!"

Grandma Luo couldn't help but raise her voice and scold.

These parents are too careless!
"Mom, I'm sorry. It's my fault."

Aunt Tang lowered her head, looking a little tired, but she didn't argue anymore. Instead, she sincerely apologized to Grandma Luo.

Aunt Tang's behavior made Grandma Luo feel that maybe everything was just a mistake and just a coincidence, and that Aunt Tang was not aware of it and did not do it on purpose.

But when she thought about the phone call, she still felt a little uncomfortable.

"You didn't answer any of those calls?"

"And the teacher said that you answered the phone the first time they called you, and you also promised to pick up Little Starry Sky after school."

"Mom, I really don't know what's going on."

"I really didn't receive a call from the kindergarten."

Aunt Tang was both confused and a little aggrieved.

"What about the news? Haven't you seen it?"

Grandma Luo is a bit aggressive.

"No, Mom, look."

Aunt Tang took out her cell phone from her pocket and opened the message page to show Grandma Luo. There was indeed no message from the kindergarten among the messages she received today.

Grandma Luo moved her lips a few times. Although she was old, she knew that the message could be deleted.

The love and pity for little Gypsophila in the teacher's eyes was unmistakable.

Besides, what reason does the teacher have to lie?

However, she glanced at Grandpa Man. The old man still had a stern face and didn't say a word. They looked at each other for a while, and she finally didn't say anything else.

If we continue talking about this, the matter may never be resolved.

Home and everything are prosperous.

Since nothing happened to Little Starry Sky this time, she could let it go and not pursue the matter any further.

But there won’t be a next time.

Grandma Luo looked into Aunt Tang's eyes and did not see a trace of evasion or guilt.

She hoped this was because Aunt Tang really was unaware.

Otherwise, thinking of another possibility, Grandma Luo couldn't help but feel a deep chill in her heart, and her whole body became stiff from the cold.

……

There was silence in the room.
