What Wang Guifen cares about most is that others use his grandson's defects to attack him. More importantly, the doctor said last time that Su Jianshan's condition is slowly getting better. How could he be stupid?!
Gao Shanyue was a very sensible girl. Wang Guifen thought that this family could not go too far, but she never thought that they would make a fuss about this matter. After she angrily retorted, she immediately regretted it. But when her eyes fell on the old man who stood up tremblingly, Wang Guifen, who was always eloquent, was stuck.
Why is this person having tears in his eyes?
Being scolded and crying?! Is this the only fighting power of the Gao family? She felt a little guilty. In the end, it was Song Guimei who was standing behind her who broke the silence. She rubbed her cloudy old eyes and asked in disbelief: "Sister?"
Wang Guifen responded tactfully: "In-laws!"
"..."
Different from Su Jianshan's bewilderment, Gao Shanyue looked at the old lady in shock because of her family's reaction. She had never seen this grandmother be nice to outsiders. As a junior, she knew very well that the old couple had no feelings at all and were indifferent to everything. Therefore, even the child they gave birth to did not win the love of Grandpa Gao.
This was her father's lifelong regret.
It is said that the old man's fiancée when he was young was not Song Guimei, but a very virtuous lady from a noble family. After they got engaged, her wife went from her hometown to the army to find the old man. However, she met refugees fleeing famine on the way and something happened to her. Her life or death was in danger. The old man searched along that road countless times but failed to find his beloved fiancée.
Grandpa Gao spent his whole life in military service and never let anyone down. His only guilt was his fiancée who died young. At this moment, Gao Shanyue looked at Wang Guifen carefully. It was true that all the abnormalities started with the bracelet given by her grandmother. Although the years had left too many marks on Wang Guifen, and the heavy labor in the countryside had left wrinkles on her face, it was undeniable that her pretty facial features still vaguely showed her former beauty.
Yes, with a beautiful granddaughter like Su Niannian,
How bad can a grandmother be?! Could it be...
"Why call me sister?! Call me sister! You look younger than me. People in the city know how to take care of themselves. It's good to be rich. Look at your smooth skin. You must have applied a lot of lotion, right?"
The other party was always outspoken, Gao Shanyue couldn't help but tug at Wang Guifen's sleeve and advised: "Grandma, you..."
But Mr. Gao next to him jumped up as if his tail was stepped on, his face flushed red: "What did you call her? This, this is inappropriate..."
Wang Guifen put her hands on her hips and said loudly, "Why are you so fierce! Shanyue is my granddaughter-in-law, so of course she has to call me grandma. In the final analysis, it is my Su family who has wronged her. This time I came to your house just to discuss the betrothal gift with you. Don't worry, I will never treat her unfairly. The granddaughter-in-law of my Su family cannot be worse than others..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Guifen opened the bag she brought layer by layer, revealing the treasured old items inside, a fish made of gold. Seeing this thing, Mr. Gao's eyes were moist. This was the betrothal gift he gave at the beginning. He didn't expect that he would be able to see it in his lifetime...
Su Jianshan, who was standing beside him, was extremely panicked. He said in a heavy voice, "Grandma, these things were left to you by your great-grandmother..."
"..."
Wang Guifen downplayed it.
"If you can't bring it with you when you're born, you can't take it with you when you die, so why keep it?!"
It was not until this moment that Mr. Gao realized something was wrong. He asked tentatively with great expectation, "Do you still recognize me?"
Wang Guifen smiled and said, "My dear relatives!"
"..."
Grandpa Gao's heart instantly became bitter as if he had swallowed Coptis chinensis, and all his attempts to make things difficult for Su Jianshan at the beginning were stopped. The other party was Wang Guifen's eldest grandson. Look at the way the old lady protected her son. If he said one word, the other party would retort ten times. So he didn't dare to make things difficult for him again!
And Wang Guifen just said that the baby in Shanyue's belly is the boy named Su. No wonder! No wonder he liked the child so much when he saw him!
It turns out he is the son of an old friend!
Although he didn't know why Wang Guifen had lost her memory, Grandpa Gao did not dare to be vague and immediately invited the grandmother and granddaughter to sit down. Even Song Guimei, who had always been indifferent to worldly affairs, went to the kitchen to prepare pastries in person.
She seemed to be intentionally acting as an invisible person in front of the two men. She would always feel guilty towards her sister. Thinking of this, she even had a special feeling towards Gao Shanyue. Who would have thought that after decades, Gao Shanyue would have a connection with Su Jianshan, bringing the two people who were originally separated forever together again.
She was not a real lady of the Song family, but she had lived a wealthy life all her life. When she saw the cracked chilblains on Wang Guifen's hands just now, she almost couldn't hold back her tears. Now she could only wipe her tears quietly in the kitchen.
Aunt Li, who was helping in the kitchen, was at a loss: "Comrade Song, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, you go out, I'll cook this lunch myself." Song Guimei's casual words almost made Aunt Li think that she was going to lose her job. The last time she cooked for her was when Grandpa Gao was sick and had surgery. Counting the time, it has been almost two years.
But she could not guess what the host was thinking. Aunt Li quickly took off her apron and walked out quickly. The money given by Gao Shanyue today was generous. Thinking that the Su family came from the countryside and had a good appetite, she bought a pig's head with her limited budget and stewed it in an iron pot. Because it was a real local pig, the soup was as pure white as milk, and the blood foam was beaten cleanly. As the gurgling bubbles rose, waves of meat aroma wafted out crazily.
Song Guimei rolled up her sleeves and took out all the meat from the cupboard.
Make the skillful Braised Pork with Preserved Vegetables step by step.
Footsteps were heard behind her. Wang Guifen sniffed and said in surprise, "Oh! Stewed pig's head! You guys are really thoughtful!"
Whenever pigs are slaughtered during festivals, Wang Guifen’s favorite dish is stewed pig heads.
Song Guimei turned around in a panic and picked up a pork bone. Because it had been stewed long enough, the fat and lean meat were all rotten and could be sucked directly into her mouth. The hot steam hit Wang Guifen's face. She swore that she came in just to help and hide from a weird old man. Who knew that Gao Shanyue's grandmother was a real person. She looked at her so kindly and even her tone was unspeakably gentle.
"Try it, the pork is delicious."
As if possessed by some mysterious force, Wang Guifen stretched out her hand.
…
Su Jianshan understood the difference between his own family and the Gao family. He was not afraid of being bullied, but he was afraid that Wang Guifen would be bullied again with him.
Mr. Gao's attitude made him uneasy, and when he didn't see his grandmother, his uneasy feeling reached its peak. But what Su Jianshan didn't expect was that Mr. Gao was even more anxious than him. When the two of them rushed to the kitchen, they just saw Wang Guifen holding a bowl and eating with relish.
As if she noticed the gazes from the door, she turned her head and unexpectedly burped loudly. Everyone present, except Su Jianshan and her grandson, raised the corners of their lips.
Some people laughed until they shed tears...
