What's going on in Chapter 88?

Lin Wenwen arrived at Grandma Wen's place very quickly.

At Grandma Wen's place, Xie Zhizhi slept in Grandma Wen's arms last night.

After finally finding her granddaughter who had been missing for twenty years, He Yuzhi held onto her hand and talked to her, unwilling to let go. She wanted to sleep with her granddaughter that night.

Xie Zhizhi also liked this old man who favored her, and immediately agreed to the matter.

Aunt Li then prepared another room for Zhou Lin to live in.

He Yuzhi hugged her granddaughter and had endless things to say, asking her how she spent her childhood, what she ate and drank, and how many years of schooling she attended.

Xie Zhizhi told the truth based on the original owner's experience.

When he heard that his granddaughter had started washing the whole family's clothes when she was only seven or eight years old, he burst into tears.

Upon learning that her granddaughter would drop out of school after finishing fifth grade, tears streamed down her face once again.

Xie Zhizhi comforted the old man as they talked, and the conversation lasted until the early hours of the morning.

So when Lin Wenwen arrived at Grandma Wen's place, both the grandmother and granddaughter were still asleep.

Xie Zhizhi, in particular, is sleeping soundly!

But even though his daughter-in-law had cut her wrists, Wen Runxiang still rushed to knock on the door and wake his wife up.

Wen Runxiang knocked on the door, and He Yuzhi got up when she heard the noise. "Who is it?"

"I!"

Hearing her husband's voice, He Yuzhi started getting dressed and quickly opened the door. Before the door was even fully open, the old lady began to explain why she had gotten up late, "Yesterday I was holding Zhizhi and listening to her talk about her childhood, so I went to bed late!"

As she spoke, she gestured for Wen Runxiang to stand aside so she could close the door from the outside, "Let this child sleep a little longer; she went to bed late last night."

Wen Runxiang looked troubled, while Zhou Lin and Lin Wenwen, who were standing in the courtyard behind her, both had heavy expressions.

Lin Wenwen arrived early this morning, and still had that same expression...

"What happened? Let me smell you..."

Lin Wenwen thought for a moment and tried to use gentle words, "Mom went to the hospital."

But He Yuzhi could tell that it wasn't just a simple trip to the hospital.

Looking into the old lady's eyes, Lin Wenwen knew that it was necessary to be more explicit, "Mom... cut her wrists."

He Yuzhi staggered slightly, and Zhou Lin quickly rushed over to support the old woman.

He Yuzhi glanced at him, said nothing, but asked Lin Wenwen in a trembling voice, "...Why?"

Lin Wenwen shook her head. "I don't know. This morning, Dad went upstairs to bring Mom breakfast. He hadn't been up there long when he rushed downstairs carrying Mom. Mom's wrist was bleeding, and there was a bright red cut. Jinshu and Jinzhou accompanied Dad to take Mom to the hospital. I... I came here."

After hearing this, He Yuzhi was both angry and heartbroken, and finally stomped her foot, yelling, "What a waste!"

Wen Runxiang sighed and waved his hand to indicate that they shouldn't talk about this. "Let's wake up Zhizhi and go see her together!"

Their daughter-in-law is in the hospital, but they're acting like nothing's wrong. That doesn't seem right.

He Yuzhi knew this wasn't the time to pity her granddaughter, so she turned to call Xie Zhizhi to get up. Zhou Lin immediately said, "I'll go call her!"

He Yuzhi looked at her arm that was being supported and nodded.

With her old arms and legs, it's best if she doesn't cause any trouble.

Xie Zhizhi was woken up, and her first reaction upon seeing Zhou Lin's face so close to hers was to reach out and hook her arm around his neck, then muttered, "Honey, let's go to sleep!"

Zhou Lin rubbed her face and whispered to her, "Get up, something's happened. Your mother has cut her wrists." Zhou Lin's words were concise.

Xie Zhizhi suddenly became sober, "Cut..."

She sat up abruptly, her forehead slamming directly into Zhou Lin's nose. It hurt for her, and it hurt for Zhou Lin too.

She covered her forehead, and Zhou Lin rubbed the tip of his nose. "She's already been taken to the hospital. Your sister-in-law came to inform us, and Grandpa and Grandma said we'd like to go and see her too."

Xie Zhizhi opened her mouth, then closed it again, and obediently put on her clothes.

Although it was clear that her biological mother didn't seem to welcome her, she still had to go and see her after what had happened.

At this moment, Xie Zhizhi was unaware that Xu Shanshan had cut her wrists to oppose the Wen family's family reunion banquet for her. If she had known, she would have thought it was unnecessary to go.

They quickly got ready and went to the hospital together.

When they arrived at the hospital, Xu Shanshan had already been resuscitated.

"The doctor said the wound wasn't deep and wouldn't be life-threatening, but I still needed to rest for a while. However, my mom was quite agitated at the moment, so she only let Qianqian go in to take care of her. So my dad, my older brother, and I stayed outside."

Wen Changyu sat on the bench, silent.

Even when Xie Zhizhi and the others arrived, he didn't even look up.

After listening to her son's story and seeing his expression, He Yuzhi knew she wouldn't get any information out of him. So she asked her grandson, "What caused this commotion?"

Wen Jinzhou, of course, had no idea, so he looked at his elder brother.

His older brother was always steady and reliable, and his father preferred to talk to his older brother about family matters. Wen Jinzhou thought Wen Jinshu would know, but Wen Jinshu shook his head, indicating that he did not know.

Then everyone's eyes fell on Wen Changyu.

Wen Changyu just sat there, his face pale, without saying a word.

Xie Zhizhi helped He Yuzhi sit down. "Grandma, let's sit for a while!"

Lin Wenwen chimed in, "Yes, Grandma, are you hungry? I'll go buy some food."

Upon hearing this, Wen Jinshu stood up and said, "I'll go buy it!"

Lin Wenwen immediately followed, saying, "I'll go with you."

Wen Jinshu did not refuse.

The young couple walked side by side out of the hospital.

The rest of the people sat at the door of the ward as door gods.

When Wen Jinshu and Lin Wenwen returned with a large pile of food, Wen Jinzhou helped distribute it to everyone. When it came to Wen Changyu, he waved his hand and said in a hoarse voice, "I have no appetite, you guys eat!"

“Zhizhi loves meat buns and sauce pancakes…” Wen Changyu said, glancing towards Xie Zhizhi.

Wen Jinshu said, "The only things sold around here are steamed buns, wontons, sesame cakes, and fried dough sticks, so I bought a little of each."

When Wen Changyu saw that Xie Zhizhi had steamed buns in her hand, he nodded and said, "Take your sister back first. Your mother is fine now. I can watch over her here."

Seeing that he had spoken, He Yuzhi asked, "Everything's fine now, Zhizhi has finally been found, what's going on here?"

"Do you still think you're young?"

Wen Changyu's face flushed when asked, and he looked flustered and at a loss for words, "Shanshan, she..."

"What's wrong with her?"

“Zhizhi just got back. Isn’t she afraid of scaring the children?” He Yuzhi asked.

Wen Changyu rubbed his calloused palms together. "Shanshan still can't get over what happened back then. She..." Wen Changyu looked up at Xie Zhizhi, who was eating a steamed bun next to him, but swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Xu Shanshan disagreed with holding a family reunion banquet for Xie Zhizhi, and after much deliberation, Wen Changyu decided not to mention it to Xie Zhizhi.

He knew that Xie Zhizhi would be very hurt if she heard these words with her own ears.

Even if Xu Shanshan didn't do it intentionally.
