Chapter 179 179 Changing Attitude
This was the second time in many years that she had shamelessly gone to see him, but unfortunately, he had long since retired and said he couldn't help anymore.
But Grandma Su knew that the other party was unwilling to help.
That's true, it's been so many years, there's no sentiment left. Besides, I already helped you once back then, so any debts have long been repaid.
Grandma Su's trip there this time was purely a self-inflicted humiliation.
Su Xiao listened to Grandma Su's story with a sigh.
What saddened Grandma Su the most was Su Dayong's attitude. He actually threatened them by saying he would smash the basin. They were an old couple, who could they rely on?
The first wife is unreliable, and the second wife's son has passed away, their grandson is in the army, and they didn't even return when their parents passed away. It seems they can't be relied on either.
Grandma Su became increasingly listless after this blow.
After hearing a sad story, Su Xiao's mood also soured.
Love between men and women is so hypocritical and ephemeral. Rather than being abandoned and hurt in the end, it's better not to get involved in that stuff. It's not worth getting hurt and heartbroken over a man.
The image of someone interacting with a pretty young lady at the train station flashed through Su Xiao's mind again.
So annoying!
Su Xiao shook his head and threw the waste away.
"Grandma, please rest well and don't think too much. There's still a long road ahead, let's see how things go." Su Xiao wasn't very good at comforting her, so she just said a few dry words and left.
Grandma Su watched Su Xiao's departing figure, her eyes darkening. She said to Grandpa Su, who had returned to his room, "She really hurt her feelings."
In the past, if she had said all this, her granddaughter would have comforted her by saying, "It's okay, I'm here for you. I'll take care of you in your old age."
Grandpa Su comforted him, "The child is a good child, take it slow."
Yes, Grandma Su had long regretted it, regretting that she hadn't stood by Su Xiaoxiao's side and had hurt her granddaughter's feelings for those beasts from the eldest son's family.
Now that she wants to repair the relationship, she can't bring herself to say anything conciliatory, so she can only try to probe secretly.
"Have you made dinner? Let's call her to eat with us. She's always running around and never eats at home. What a waste of money!" Grandma Su said with a frown, looking worried. "She spends money recklessly as soon as she has it. She doesn't know how to save. She has a long life ahead of her. She doesn't know how to manage money."
"Teach her slowly, she's smart, she'll definitely improve." Grandpa Su stood up and went out, agreeing with this point. "I'll go call her for dinner."
"Xiaoxiao, dinner is ready. Grandpa cooked a lot today. Come and have some with us," Grandpa Su called out towards Su Xiao's room.
Su Xiao was cooking dinner in her space when she heard from Xiao Liu that Grandpa Su was calling her to eat. She was quite surprised and hurriedly left the space, opened the door and said, "No need, Grandpa. I have to go out in a little while."
He wanted to ask Grandpa Su where he was going, but the question remained unspoken.
Because he heard her utter two words in a cold voice, "Something's wrong!"
Concise and clear.
He smiled, then changed the subject, saying, "Then I'll make a bigger breakfast tomorrow morning, you..."
"No need, Grandpa." Su Xiao frowned slightly, not understanding why things had turned out this way when they had been getting along peacefully for the past few days.
Su Xiao's second refusal made the situation somewhat awkward.
Su Xiao also felt that she shouldn't have done this, but she really didn't want to have too much to do with the two elders right now.
Those who eat from the same pot are family.
"I'm sorry, Grandpa," Su Xiao said apologetically. "I have something to do, so I'll have to go out for a bit."
