When she was little, her grandmother was young, tall, and healthy, but now she noticed that her grandmother had become smaller and smaller, just a tiny little ball.
Wen Shu couldn't help but reach out and hug her grandmother. Her grandmother knew she was upset and comforted her, saying, "Shu Shu, we're family. Don't be so polite with your grandmother."
"I've raised two children in my life, one is Su Ying, and the other is you. All the bad luck in my first half of life was resolved after I met you. I've lived a worthwhile life!"
Wen Shu pursed her lips and nodded gently, "I was lucky to run into my grandmother."
Li Duo stood at the door, silently watching his grandmother and Wen Shu interact. He turned his head away and looked to the side without saying a word.
Inside the house, only Wen Rou Rou was sticking his little bottom out, trying hard to take his toys out of the toy box, saying, "This is Rou Rou's, and this is Rou Rou's too!"
Moving took a lot of time, but fortunately everyone worked well together and was very proactive in everything they did.
In fact, the one who spent the most effort on the move was Li Duo, because Wen Shu had to go to school during the day and would only come back when she didn't have classes.
As for Xiao Rou Rou, he's always causing trouble whenever he's around. He's focused on organizing his pile of toys and has long since taken over the place where he puts his toys.
Li Duo mainly did manual labor, with his grandmother helping out, or cleaning and tidying up the house.
A week later, we finally moved everything over.
While Wen Shu was away, Grandma said to Li Duo, "Li Duo, I'm helping you and Wen Shu voluntarily, so don't feel pressured. You're willing to have this old woman like me live with you, so I'm the one who should be grateful. I'm just doing what I can to help you."
“Since you are marrying Wen Shu, I really don’t have anything to give you. Wen Shu has neither a dowry nor any money. Logically speaking, I should be the one to prepare these things.”
"It's a pity that this old woman is not very capable. You can't give Wen Shu that much money. The only thing you can leave her is that house."
"Don't look down on her. I believe Wen Shu will definitely not be too bad in the future. I also believe that she will gradually grow up and become a good mother and a good wife."
Li Duo replied, "Grandma, you think too highly of me. I'm just an ordinary person now, a father, a husband. Someone who has to work hard to support his family. Wen Shu marrying me and being willing to marry me is the most successful thing I've ever done in my life."
“Grandma, don’t think Wen Shu is marrying above her station. I’m the one who’s truly marrying above her station. Wen Shu accepted me when I left the Li family and had nothing. I’m the lucky one.”
Grandma nodded. "If that's how you see it, then I have nothing to say. As long as you're all doing well, I don't care what happens to me."
Halfway through packing, Grandma Li San suddenly arrived.
When Grandma Li saw her grandmother squatting among a pile of clutter tidying up things, she suddenly became anxious. "Didn't I tell you to mind your own business? Why are you meddling so much in these young people's affairs?"
Grandma Li San already knew the whole story. She was furious at Li Zhonggeng for disregarding her grandmother's feelings, forcibly filing a lawsuit, trying to separate Wen Shu and her son, and suppressing Li Duo. She hadn't spoken to Li Zhonggeng for several days.
She wasn't kept in the dark about her maternal grandmother's affairs; Third Grandma Li knew everything she needed to know. She was furious, but there was nothing she could do.
When he was young, Li Zhonggeng didn't dare to say so much, but now Grandma Li is old.
To put it bluntly, Grandma Li might leave any day, so Li Zhonggeng naturally began to neglect her.
Grandma Li did save the Li family in the past, but that was many years ago.
Li Zhonggeng couldn't possibly remember those things forever.
Nowadays, Grandma Li San can't persuade Li Zhonggeng at all. Even though Li Zhonggeng knows that he will hurt the old woman's feelings, he doesn't care about that anymore.
Grandma Li was truly heartbroken, but there was nothing she could do.
She's barely able to keep herself safe right now, what else can she do?
The nannies and maids who had come with Grandma Li quickly stepped forward and helped her up. "Oh, Grandma, you should rest. You're so old, why are you still doing these things?"
"Let the young people get more exercise. You should rest. You're at an age where you should be enjoying life."
Several nannies helped the grandmother to a chair and then ran over to help.
When Wen Shu came home from school, she was called over by Grandma Li and scolded, who said that her grandmother was too old to do those chores.
What could Wen Shu do? She could only apologize, admit her mistakes, and eagerly do everything for him.
Besides, she's a senior now and will be graduating soon, so Wen Shu has been staying home these past few days packing up and hasn't even gone to school.
When Wen Rou Rou heard that Wen Shu wasn't going to school and was going to stay home to tidy up, she immediately raised her little hand and said loudly, "Shu Shu, Rou Rou isn't going to school, Rou Rou will tidy up the toys!"
Wen Shu put her hands on her hips, glanced at the toys that Wen Rou Rou had scattered all over the floor, and immediately frowned.
If the little one stays home instead of going to school, won't the house be in complete chaos? How will we manage then?
"But Rou Rou's toys and other things at home need to be packed away separately, otherwise we won't be able to stay in our house."
Wen Shu said to Wen Rou Rou, "Tomorrow afternoon, Shu Shu will ask the teacher for half a day off so that Rou Rou can stay home and tidy up the toys, okay?"
Wen Rou Rou scratched her chubby face. "Okay."
Grandma Li looked at Wen Rou Rou and liked her more and more. Such a beautiful and lovely child, no wonder the Li family was unwilling to give up on her easily.
Unfortunately, Li Duo delivered a fatal blow to the Li family by directly registering his marriage with Wen Shu, completely depriving the Li family of any grounds to fight for the child.
Now that Li Duo has left the Li family and is determined to break away from them, this has dealt a huge blow to Li Zhonggeng, who thought he could firmly control Li Duo.
After all, Li Zhonggeng firmly believed that Li Duo would never leave the Li family.
The Li family gave him everything; once he leaves the Li family, he will have nothing left.
Furthermore, Li Duo grew up under the careful nurturing of the Li family, and he had become accustomed to everything the Li family gave him. His conditions after leaving the family could not possibly be better than those in the Li family.
It is said that it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Why was Li Zhonggeng so convinced that Li Duo would not last long?
It was because he felt that he definitely couldn't accept the impoverished life Li Duo would lead after leaving the Li family.
Even now, Li Zhonggeng still holds onto the hope that Li Duo will eventually return to the Li family.
Wen Shu hasn't graduated from university yet, and they have a three-year-old child. Li Duo has lost the support of the Li family. Even if he gets a job at another company, how could they possibly treat him with the same respect as before?
Whenever he works for someone else, he has to be subservient to them.
How could someone as proud as Li Duo possibly lower his pride and bow down to others?
