"Mother?" His mother was at a loss on what to do. She instantly straightened her back with an embarrassed look on her face as she slowly tightened her grip on the handkerchief.

Grandmother cast a sidelong glance at her mother, then tightly pursed her lips.

The room fell silent.

I reached for the pink teapot, refilled a cup of tea, and offered it to my mother. After a moment's hesitation, Mother took the teacup, got up from the stool and half-knelt in front of Grandmother's bed. She then placed the teacup next to Grandmother's mouth.

Grandmother lowered her head and took a sip from her mother's hand. Her expression also eased up a lot.

"You and boss are both unlucky!" Grandmother sighed. "I had to give up my brother." The mother's face also had a sorrowful expression. She used the handkerchief to wipe her tears away, "Mother, don't say anymore!" This was the look a real mother would have when she faced her child.

"I had originally thought that after Aunt Chen gave birth to a child, she would send a name to you, giving it to you to raise." Grandmother sighed and stared at her mother.

My mother was stunned for a moment, her mouth slightly open, staring at my grandmother with an expression of utter surprise.

"Why else would I choose a woman with such an identity and send her to the boss' room? I was just thinking about how easy it would be! " Grandmother had a meaningful look in her eyes, and I hadn't expected Grandmother to acquiesce in this matter or such considerations.

"Unfortunately, this child has no fate with you two." Grandmother turned her eyes away from the others and stared at the bed canopy.

"Mother, I will definitely take good care of Aunt Chen." The mother's voice was full of gratitude and excitement. It was better to be grateful for her kindness than to give birth to her kindness. Although the mother and her son's status was awkward, they could still get along well without her son.

"Go back and guard her! When the boss comes back, all he can do is to thank you. " The grandmother smiled at her mother, a smile as sincere as a mother who sincerely wanted to help her daughter.

When she heard her mother-in-law talk about the matter in the room, she couldn't help feeling embarrassed. She blushed and said, "We're all old husbands and wives, how can it be like what Mother said!" Grandmother giggled and urged her mother out the door.

"Sit down!" Grandmother pointed to the stool I was sitting on, and I smiled and sat down.

"Stay close to me!" Grandmother beckoned to me, and I had to move my stool closer to Grandmother's side. I could still feel the heat coming from Grandmother's body.

"Little girl, do you know why I am angry at you?" Grandmother's tone was very calm.

I lowered my eyes. "I shouldn't target my unborn brothers and sisters."

Grandmother smiled and said, "That's one of the reasons, but it's not the main reason." I looked up at Grandmother. Was that not why Grandmother valued her children so much?

"Your father had three sons in the outer room." "Even if these three children are out of date and can be chosen as heirs from the clan, someone in this family will want to inherit it." Grandmother pointed at the teacup on the table. I fed Grandmother a mouthful of water and said, "Even if I was born and grew up in my hands, I can't rely on filial piety to provide for her!" Grandmother's words were shocking. Since ancient times, she had raised a child to guard against old age, but Grandmother did not rely on her grandchildren's appearance.

Do you think I'm a fool?" she asked, with a mischievous smile that didn't quite match her age. It's no wonder that little girls like you don't understand that marrying a good family is the same as having a place to live in. Why would parents who love their daughter dearly enough to buy a house for their daughter and marry her to a manor? That is, tell their daughter not to stoop down to be a human when she arrives at their manor, and that she can still rely on her own marriage to establish her own clan!

"Then what about after a hundred years?" I asked. According to common sense, if the Lady died outside, she could not go back to her in-laws' house. Wouldn't she become a ghost?

"Hey!" Grandmother's face was filled with joy, as if she had heard a joke. "I didn't expect you people to believe this at such a young age! If a person dies, then so be it. Where is the soul? " It never occurred to me that my grandmother, who spent her days with the Buddha, did not believe in rebirth.

Surprised, I subconsciously straightened my body, but didn't expect the "Yan Hua Sutra" to fall to the ground with a 'pa' sound.

Grandmother looked at the Buddhist scriptures on the ground and smiled. "All of this work is because I have nothing better to do than to read and relieve my boredom!"

This was it!

Then the grandmother said softly, "You are an unusual child, ambitious and ambitious. Even so, it may not be possible to achieve anything. Yet, since you have such an appearance, you look just like that noble person. As long as you wish it, you will definitely have great fortune in the future. "

Great fortune? I don't want to have any great fortune, I just want to investigate the cause of death in my previous life and take revenge for the loss of my son.

Grandmother looked at me as if she understood what I was thinking. "You didn't see it because you didn't get there. Sometimes when you get to a certain place, you don't want it. " Grandmother's words seemed to mean something. Could it be that she knew something? There was clearly no wind and there was a charcoal brazier placed in front of me, but my back felt slightly cold.

"What bright road do you think you will be left with to walk so far in the future? If you continue to be so impetuous, all of us will die with you. " Grandmother smiled as she said each word, as if she was discussing how the weather was today. However, the content shocked me to the point that I was covered in cold sweat.

"I …" I wanted to open my mouth to argue, but I didn't know what to say.

"You want to say that your mother was stupid and couldn't tell that you were trying to seduce her?" "Grandmother smirked." Then you're wrong! Although your mother is not very intelligent, she has managed the family for ten years. How could she not know about this? "

"You wanted to ask why your mother didn't suspect you?"

"I doted on that unborn child this way, putting Aunt Chen under my eyes. I also repeatedly told your mother to go comfort you." Grandmother's face returned to the warm smile of a senior.

So that's the reason. My mother thought that I was just a little girl trying to please her, so she didn't suspect me. So it turns out that my grandmother was helping me in the dark.

"Don't think that you're too smart. I'm just like you when I'm young. Who knows how many times I've suffered." Grandmother folded her hands in front of her stomach, and the emerald ring on her finger gleamed strangely in the light.

"I'm old, the time to look after this family is running out, your aunt and uncle are confused, I don't beg you to bring any wealth to this family, I only beg you to do your best to protect your sister-in-law." My grandmother's eyes were bright and wise, and I was at a loss.

"I …" I didn't know how to answer my grandmother.

"Don't worry, just do your best. If you can't, send them to the village to work as farmers." Grandmother had a reassuring smile on her face, but I was secretly surprised.

Now, although the Yang family couldn't be considered a rich family, they were still big families, and they were even more prosperous. Why would his grandmother say such words? The old grannies of every family looked forward to the prosperity of their family. It was one thing for their grandmothers not to think highly of their children, but why didn't they seem to care about the future of their own children?

"When you're my age, you'll know that every word I say is more useful than the one in that book!" Grandmother glanced at the scripture I was holding in my hand.

"Yes, I promised Grandmother that I will do everything I can to protect the children of the Yang family." I looked up at my grandmother.

Grandmother nodded. "Tell Hong Yu to come in and serve me. I need to rest."

"I'll wait on Grandmother tonight!" Grandmother smiled and did not refuse. She raised her arm for me to help her take off her coat, washed her mouth, and lay down on the bed. After drinking half a bowl of medicine that had just been simmered on the stove, she fell asleep.
