Chapter 152 Think of Yourself Too
Yao Shula didn't know why Grandma Yao had called her; she thought Grandma Yao had something important to say!
After entering Grandma Yao's room, Yao Shula saw that Grandma Yao had put the piece of cloth that had been delivered that day into the innermost part of the box by the bedside.
It's clear that Grandma Yao really likes this fabric.
"Grandma, let me help you!" Yao Shula quickly came over to help Grandma Yao put the clothes she had taken out back into the box.
After helping Grandma Yao close the box and putting the bedding that had been on top of it back on, Yao Shula helped Grandma Yao sit down on the edge of the bed.
Grandma Yao looked at Yao Shula and suddenly felt a pang of heartache as she took Yao Shula's hand.
"Shura, you've really had a tough time these days."
You act as both father and mother, and you take such good care of the little one.
"Oh, Grandma doesn't know what to say!" Grandma Yao sighed.
Seeing this, Yao Shula realized that something big was going to happen today!
"Grandma, I'm fine. Those are my younger brother and sister. If I don't take care of them, who will?"
They are obedient; they listen to everything I say, it's not difficult at all!
Besides, haven't you been helping me out all along? I'm not tired." Yao Shula quickly grasped Grandma Yao's hand in return.
The more Yao Shula said this, the more upset Grandma Yao felt.
“Your father is inhuman. He will get his comeuppance. We don’t need to worry about him.”
But Shura, Grandma has to think of something for you!
You're twenty now, you're a grown woman.
"You can't expect me to wait until Shuli is an adult before you start thinking about your own life!" Grandma Yao said, looking at Yao Shula.
Yao Shula then understood what Grandma Yao wanted to say to her.
This is about getting married!
Yao Shula almost laughed. She hadn't thought about marriage at all when she came here. All she wanted was for Yao Shuxin and Yao Shuli to grow up smoothly.
"Grandma... I'm still young. Let's talk about this in a few years, okay?" Yao Shula coaxed her grandmother.
Grandma Yao sighed.
"Everyone knows what you're thinking. You want to watch Shuxin and Shuli grow up."
But they've both grown up, and how old are you now? Don't blame Grandma for overthinking, Shura. Once they're all grown up, it'll be a bit difficult for you to find a partner.
It was such a pity that I was stuck in a limbo, not good enough for anything!
Look how great you are! You're capable and sensible. Aside from being a bit sharp-tongued, you excel at everything!
Shura, listen to what Grandma has to say first.
Let's look at potential partners first. If you don't want to find a partner now, it's because you don't want to feel comfortable or suffer any injustice.
It's okay, we'll find someone with a good personality who can understand us.
There are quite a few people working at your sisters-in-law's and brothers' workplaces.
If you're willing, Grandma can talk to them and ask them to help look around and see if there's anything suitable.
If we find a suitable one, we'll start talking about it!
If you date for a few years, you'll feel much more at ease, and things will be easier for you when you go off to study.
At that time, only Shuli was left.
Grandma's health has been pretty good these past few years. If you find a suitable partner, Grandma Shuli will help take care of him.
We'll have Shuli move here then, and you can rent out the house you're living in now.
You can keep the rent. You can discuss the house and rent with Shuli when he grows up.
"How about this?" Grandma Yao said a lot in one breath.
Yao Shula knew that Grandma Yao was doing this for her own good.
but……
"Grandma, there's no need to trouble my brothers and sisters-in-law so much. I really don't want to date right now."
"I know you feel sorry for me, but I'm an adult now, and I know my limits!" Yao Shula said with a smile.
Grandma Yao sighed.
"Shura, Grandma knows you're a hundred times better than your dad."
He doesn't care about his children, but you put your younger siblings first.
But... you can't say that you only care about your younger siblings and have no feelings for yourself at all!
You should at least think about yourself!
Seeing Grandma Yao's heartache, it would be a lie to say that Yao Shula wasn't moved.
"Grandma, maybe I just haven't figured it out yet!"
Who knows, maybe one day I'll suddenly want to date? I'll definitely ask Grandma to give me her opinion then.
"Grandma, do you think this is okay?" Yao Shula hugged Grandma Yao's arm and acted coquettishly.
Grandma Yao had no choice but to nod after Yao Shula's words.
"Fine! You can say whatever you want!"
To be honest, I'm not worried about your life after you get married. With your brains and your mouth, no one can beat you.
What I'm worried about is who you should marry!
Never mind, I won't say anything more.
You guys... you're all so opinionated these days.
My granddaughter, granddaughter, and granddaughter-in-law are all very opinionated.
Your aunt came to tell me that Yamin broke up with her boyfriend, and her uncle's colleague introduced her to a young man from the grain bureau, but she didn't even look at him.
They said they should focus on their work.
Xiaochun, without saying a word, sold her job without discussing it with her family.
Needless to say, you're the most opinionated person in the whole family.
"Oh well, I can't control you anymore. Just focus on living your lives well, and we'll talk about the rest later!" Grandma Yao said with a sigh.
Yao Shula quickly said something else to cheer up Grandma Yao.
One minute they're praising how hard Yao Shuxin studies, the next they're praising how sensible Yao Shuli is, even after earning money selling popsicles, she still thinks about buying things for her grandma!
Or they'd say how adorable Xiaotian is, calling a woman in her forties "sister" just to sell popsicles...
Grandma Yao listened and laughed, and finally stopped advising Yao Shula to find a partner.
Yao Shula also breathed a sigh of relief.
...
After Yao Shula came out of Grandma Yao's house, Yao's eldest aunt and Zhong Xiaochun were washing clothes.
Aunt Yao was washing clothes on a washboard while talking to Zhong Xiaochun.
"Let me tell you, if you lose money opening a restaurant, come back and take care of your kids right away."
Don't expect everything from me alone, I owe you all!
Also, if you open a restaurant in the future, don't keep quiet like this every day. No one wants to see a smiling face when they go out to eat!
You have to be enthusiastic towards people!
Haven't you seen that movie called "Golden Deer"?
That candy saleswoman, with her smooth talk and that smile for the customers…
"You have to learn!" Aunt Yao started lecturing Zhong Xiaochun again.
Zhong Xiaochun readily agreed.
Yao Shula couldn't help but smile to herself.
It seems that Aunt Yao has accepted Zhong Xiaochun's decision to sell his job and open a restaurant with his parents.
Aunt Yao... is quite an interesting person.
They are particularly good at accepting reality.
...
Two more days passed. It was supposed to be the day Xiao Tiantian went back to Secretary Lei's place, but Xiao Tiantian didn't pack her things to go back like before...
