Look at her now, her hunched body stands straight, and although her eyes are cloudy like those of other old men, they are more gentle, and reveal a hint of strength and resilience. The wrinkles on her face seem to fade a little under the candlelight, and even some of her beautiful beauty in her youth can be vaguely seen.
It's easy to imagine that if someone like Bai Ling's mother and Li Zhenghao were born, how could this elderly person be ugly? Looking at the personalities of Li Zhenghao and others, as the saying goes, parents are their children's first teachers, and the children's personalities will be more or less influenced by Li Dongmei.
And even though Li Dongmei was born in the countryside, she is not ignorant or brainless. If she was really selfish and didn't want her child to leave her sight, why would she send Bai Ling's mother away?
To put it bluntly, Bai Ling's mother had only returned to visit them during the holidays for the past few years. How was this any different from giving her child away to be raised by someone else? Yet, not only did she do it, she never regretted it. You have to know that the old couple had only had this one daughter for so many years.
People in rural areas have always believed that having many children means more blessings. There is no such thing as eugenics and good parenting, not to mention some feudal superstitions that they must have a son, so the old couple will definitely not take any contraceptive measures. This means that they must have thought in their hearts that they will not give birth to children, and the child is only from Su Ling's mother.
Just think about it: no matter how poor a person is today, if he knows that he will only have one child, would he give her away?
It can be seen how broad-minded and selfless Bai Ling's grandparents were at the time. They were not focused on the present, but had already considered the future of their children.
But when they made this decision, I'm afraid both of them must have been struggling and suffering for a while.
Fortunately, God had mercy on her. Unexpectedly, she would still have a child in her old age after more than ten years. At this time, her life was already slightly affluent, so she naturally raised the child well. Who would have thought that God was cruel and took Bai Ling's grandfather away. Even so, in the blink of an eye, Li Dongmei lost her daughter in middle age. Despite the series of blows, she still stood firm and raised two ignorant children single-handedly, gritting her teeth to support herself.
Thinking about this, not to mention how much suffering Li Dongmei had endured back then, this kind of tenacious character is not something that ordinary people can have.
Bai Ling and others obviously inherited her resilience.
Bai Ling looked at her grandmother, whose hair had already turned white. She stood like a strong pine tree under the thick vine tent. Her smile was different from before. Although she smiled, there was anxiety and even fear hidden in her smile.
The heart that had been hanging in the air finally settled down. Her grandmother was back.
When she was a child, all matters at home were actually decided by her grandmother, who was the one who took care of everything at home.
Faced with the transformation of humans into man-eating zombies and the changes in the world's landscape, it seems as if all the common sense we knew before has been sharply torn apart and overturned, leaving people at a loss.
Her grandmother is a human being, and an old woman who is about to die. This also makes the old woman feel a little afraid that she will become a burden to the younger generations and that she will no longer be able to take care of her children.
"Go to sleep. I'm afraid you will have to follow this army at seven o'clock tomorrow!" Holding little Wang Jieming's hand, Li Dongmei lowered her eyes. Despite this, one could not ignore the calmness in her.
