Chapter 198 My dear grandson, I feel so sorry for you!
Su Mei used to be strong and independent because she had never been loved and pampered by anyone. She had no one to rely on and always knew that the only person she could rely on was herself.
But since she confirmed her relationship with Huo Jianguo, she has received meticulous care from him.
A person who has never been loved suddenly gets the love he has always dreamed of, and he becomes soft without realizing it.
This softness is terrifying. It transforms Su Mei from a hedgehog full of thorns into a soft and pattable house cat.
Those who once thought themselves invulnerable now have soft spots.
She never thought that she would shed so many tears because of these experiences that did not seem to be difficult.
At the door, Su Shengxue looked at his sister who suddenly burst in and cried on his shoulder, and felt a little confused for a moment.
The brother and sister were of similar age, and they used to chase and fight each other all day long, making a lot of noise. Su Mei had never relied on her like this before.
This suddenly ignited Su Shengxue's desire to protect her, which had been lost in some corner for a long time.
He wanted to comfort her, but he didn't want to interrupt her crying.
Because she cried so hard, Su Shengxue thought that it might be better not to interrupt her and let her cry her heart out.
The kerosene lamp in the room was lit, and Bai Xiaofang and Su Yongcang also climbed up, putting on their clothes.
"What...what happened, my little daughter? Why did you come back so late at night and in such a state?" Bai Xiaofang said this, not caring about the rain in the yard, and ran to the top of the narrow courtyard gate. Huo Fugui was still standing under the eaves, looking extremely worried.
After wiping the rain off her face, Bai Xiaofang pulled Su Mei from Su Shengxue's shoulders to her front, wiped the rain and tears off Su Mei's face with her sleeve, and asked anxiously:
"Stop crying! You're making me so worried! Tell me what happened! Don't just cry!"
"What else could it be? It must be that Huo Jianguo bullied her!" Su Shengxue said impatiently.
"When he's at home, he's as fierce as a mountain king. How come he becomes like this when he's bullied outside? He just annoys you, so you stretch out your claws to poke him. There's no point crying!"
"How do you talk to your sister?" Bai Xiaofang took the Suzhou bag and glared at Su Shengxue unhappily.
She took Su Mei's hand and walked into the yard:
"Go back to your room and change your clothes first. You're all soaking wet. We can talk later."
With this pull, Su Mei's body leaned forward. Her foot was already injured, and she had limped home with great difficulty. When Bai Xiaofang suddenly pulled her like this, the piercing pain suddenly spread from her sole to her forehead.
If Su Shengxue had not grabbed Su Mei in time, she might have fallen straight to the ground.
"Mom, go slower, my foot is injured!" Su Mei calmed down a little, and put her hands on Bai Xiaofang's shoulders, trying to use her strength to move inside.
Suddenly, Su Shengxue, who was behind him, picked up Su Mei by the waist and walked inside while complaining:
"Thank goodness you lost weight. If you were still the same size as you were a year ago, I wouldn't be able to hold you even if I used all my strength!"
Su Shengxue carried Su Mei back to her room and walked out. Bai Xiaofang followed in and found a set of clothes for Su Mei to change into.
When changing clothes, Bai Xiaofang saw Su Mei's horribly swollen ankle and began to shed tears like Su Mei:
"My dear daughter, how could you have suffered so much?"
"Mom, I'm fine, I just sprained my ankle, don't cry." Seeing Bai Xiaofang crying for her, Su Mei's lost heart suddenly felt at ease.
She didn't feel like crying that much anymore.
After changing clothes, Bai Xiaofang let Su Xuanju into the room to check Su Mei's foot injury. Before she left, she said:
"I'll make you a bowl of ginger soup, and let Grandpa take a good look at your foot. This injury to your bones needs a thorough check."
Bai Xiaofang finished her words and walked out. Su Xuanju held up Su Mei's feet under the kerosene lamp, and tears suddenly fell on his wrinkled face:
"My dear grandson, I feel so sorry for grandpa!"
