"Your grandmother was originally a field doctor. After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan, she worked at the Liaoning Provincial Military Hospital, so she was quite busy."
He didn't care whether Shen Mu Ning agreed to call him grandpa or not, and directly assigned Si Meng Yu the title of her grandmother.
Only then did she understand why they didn't have children.
Both of them are very busy people and don't have time to take care of their children.
Moreover, seeing how much she cared for him, she wasn't so resistant to him and started treating him like her grandfather.
"Grandpa, don't worry, I will take care of you from now on."
Seeing the hint of expectation in his eyes, Shen Mu Ning called out to him directly.
"Okay, okay... From now on you'll be my granddaughter, but we won't take care of you in your old age."
“Your grandma and I have already made plans. When we can no longer work and retire, we will move to a nursing home.”
That was their plan when they first got married.
If they are still capable, they will definitely stick to their posts.
When they get old, they will live in the state-built nursing homes.
Even though he now has a granddaughter named Shen Mu Ning, his thoughts remain unchanged.
As long as she visits them often, there's no need for them to support them in their old age.
Shen Mu Ning really didn't expect that her grandparents' thinking was always so ahead of its time.
They even thought about spending their old age in a nursing home.
She didn't immediately refute him, after all, it would be at least ten years before he retired.
Let's see how things go later and then decide.
"Knock knock knock." "Report." The knocking and the voice sounded at the same time.
"Come in." As Sun Wu's voice fell, Wu Shuo, carrying a bag in his hand, walked into the house.
"Commander, here are the things you requested." After handing the bag to Sun Wu, he went out to guard it again.
Sun Wu rummaged through the bag for a while before finally pulling out a watch—a woman's watch.
After taking out the watch, he handed it directly to Shen Mu Ning.
"Xiao Ning, this is something I had someone buy for me. I don't know if it will suit you, but why don't you try it on first?"
He had originally asked someone to buy a watch for Shen Mu Ning when he learned at noon that she didn't have a watch and didn't know the time.
He had a good plan at the time: whatever his only younger relative in the Sun family lacked, he would give them to them.
But after he got the watch back, he regretted it a little.
He should have taken Shen Mu Ning to the department store to try buying it, since he felt the watch was a bit too plain.
His looks seem unworthy of his beloved granddaughter.
Moreover, he genuinely didn't know what styles girls liked these days.
Sigh, I miscalculated this time. I must remember this next time.
Shen Mu Ning never expected that this cheap grandfather would give her a gift.
And judging by the time, he sent someone to buy it around noon.
"Grandpa, I don't need a watch."
However, she had no intention of accepting it, since they were not very familiar with each other yet.
"It is an honor to receive a gift from an elder; consider this a gift from your grandfather."
Sun Wu could naturally tell that her refusal was sincere.
This only strengthened my resolve to give her the watch.
Seeing his insistence on giving it to her, Shen Mu Ning had no choice but to accept it.
However, since she wasn't used to wearing a watch, she wanted to put it away.
Sun Wu refused to allow it and instead made her wear it on her hand.
"Xiao Ning, try it on your wrist. If you don't like it, we can exchange it, okay?"
Shen Mu Ning had no choice but to put it on.
To be fair, watches from this era were quite understated yet luxurious.
In short, she really liked the watch.
"How is it? Does it suit you? Do you like it?"
Sun Wu asked her a series of questions, afraid that she wouldn't like them.
"I really like it, thank you Grandpa."
"I'm glad you like it. Oh, and here are some skincare products that girls like to buy, take those too."
This bag is full of products like face cream, all of which he asked me to buy.
After all, when he was in the army, he often saw his wife buy these things to use on her face.
He figured girls would like these things, so he had them all bought.
"Okay, thank you, Grandpa." Looking at his unquestionable gaze, what else could Shen Mu Ning do but accept?
However, this allowed Shen Mu Ning to experience the feeling of being pampered, something she hadn't felt in a long time.
Yes, this is the first time I've felt loved and cherished; it fills my heart with sweetness.
"Oh, you're welcome."
Thinking about how he now had such a capable granddaughter, Sun Wu felt a surge of excitement.
Some people used to secretly mock him for having no offspring, but now he has plenty to brag about.
Hmph, in his opinion, none of the children in those people's families are as capable as his children.
After all, hypnosis alone makes it unique.
However, thinking about this, he still had to ask Shen Mu Ning about her future plans and what she wanted to do.
"Xiao Ning, I've seen your file. You weren't originally supposed to go to the countryside, but if you don't want to stay there, I'll get you transferred to Liaoning Province, okay?"
He knew Shen Mu Ning was a martyr's family member; if it weren't for her shameless second uncle's family, she could still be staying in Haishi.
If she doesn't want to stay in the Xinshan Brigade, he can immediately transfer her household registration.
If she registers her household under his name, she can go back to Liaoning Province with him.
"Um, no, I think I'm quite happy staying in the countryside, so I won't go to Liaoning Province with you."
Although she was touched by Sun Wu's actions, it didn't mean she wanted to move in with him.
She felt that once this cultural relic resale incident was over, she could finally relax and enjoy life in the countryside.
Although I still have to work every day at the Johor Bahru brigade.
But given her circumstances, she only needs to work during the busy farming season; the rest of the time is hers to do.
If I go back with Sun Wu, he might not want to see me doing nothing like this and might even want to find me a job.
You say this doesn't fit her idea of giving up and being a couch potato at all!
"That works too, the environment in the Johor Brigade is quite nice."
Although Sun Wu regretted that Shen Mu Ning wasn't by his side, he still respected his child's choice.
After all, this is her life, and she should be the one to make the decisions.
Besides, he also knew from Zhou Zhou that the system of Xinshan Brigade was quite good and treated them, the educated youth, fairly well.
In addition, her strength made her quite popular in the countryside.
Seeing that he agreed to his idea so easily, Sun Wu gained even more points with Shen Mu Ning.
After all, in her previous life, what she saw most was adults using the guise of doing what's best for children to force people to listen to them.
Therefore, Sun Tzu respected her wishes and did not forcibly send her to Liao Province, which made him quite fond of her.
