Chapter 80 80 Hope Remains
Su Xiao's confident smile immediately soothed Grandma Hua's worries.
"Good child, you will have good fortune." Grandma Hua's eyes glistened with tears as she sincerely wished him well.
"Yes, you and Xiaoming must take good care of yourselves too. Grandma Hua, I believe these days will soon be over. Hang in there, don't give up hope," Su Xiao said softly. She thought for a moment and decided to say this anyway.
Because, when she left, the people she was most worried about were Grandma Hua and Xiaoming.
There is a passage in the book describing how the old lady next door to Su Eryong's family fell ill in the dead of winter. Her grandson, Xiaoming, came to the Su family for help and happened to run into the female protagonist, Su Peipei. Out of sympathy, Su Peipei helped buy fever-reducing medicine and received a pair of white jade bracelets as a reward from the old lady.
This is a treat for the female lead.
Unfortunately, the old lady's illness dragged on for too long, and she eventually passed away.
As soon as the old lady left, her house was targeted by a group of thieves, and Xiaoming disappeared without a trace.
Thinking about all this, Su Xiao felt a pang of heartache.
It happened this winter. She wasn't in a hurry at first, thinking she could help the grandmother and grandson when the time came.
Now, all she can do is write to Huang Feiyan and ask her to visit them more often, hoping to prevent the tragedy from happening.
"How could you...?"
"Shh..." Su Xiao put her index finger to her lips and shushed him, then whispered, "Grandma Hua, please believe me."
"Okay, good child, Grandma believes you." Grandma Hua choked up as she held her hand tightly.
Su Xiao smiled. A person's belief is very important. When faced with a desperate situation, having it means there is hope for survival.
"Grandma, you're busy. I'll head back now; I still need to tidy up the house. Xiaoming, come on, see your sister off." Su Xiao waved to Grandma Hua, then took Hua Cunming's hand and left.
Reaching the door, Su Xiao took an envelope from her pocket and handed it to Hua Cunming. "Xiaoming, Grandma is getting old. You need to pay close attention to her health. If you find that she is unwell or if there are any difficulties at home, go to Sister Feiyan and give her this letter. She will help you. Do you understand?"
Su Xiao was making preparations for both scenarios. In the envelope, she had written a short note asking Huang Feiyan for help, and also included fifty yuan for emergencies.
Su Xiao was unaware of how important her foresight was; it would indeed help the unfortunate grandmother and grandson soon after, preventing a tragedy from occurring.
Hua Cunming took the envelope and nodded, tears welling up in his eyes, and said, "Little sister, do you really have to go? I can't bear to see you leave."
The way people get along is so wonderful. Not long ago, they were not very familiar with each other, but now they feel reluctant to part.
Su Xiao patted his head and said, "Xiao Ming, there are only two of you in the family, you and your grandma. You are now the only male in the family and the pillar of the family. In the future, don't panic when something happens, think it over, and take good care of your grandma, okay?"
“I know, I will,” Hua Cunming replied earnestly.
"Okay, sister's leaving, you can close the door now."
When Su Xiao got home, she thought about it again to see if there was anything she had forgotten. After a while, she rubbed her temples and decided to stop thinking about it.
Sigh, I had originally decided to just lie down and live a carefree life, but I never expected to be caught off guard by a notice to go to the countryside.
Having been in this world for only a short time, things have been happening one after another.
Life is tough no matter where you are.
