Jian Yixue looked at the old man and repeated what she had said to Dongfang Yi to him.
After Jian Yixue finished speaking, the old man was completely distraught.
In an instant, all the strength in my body was drained, and I couldn't even stand up.
Fortunately, Jian Yixue reacted quickly and withdrew her hand from Ye Mohan's, managing to support Old Master Dongfang in time.
This prevented the old man from having close contact with the earth.
Jian Yixue's expression wasn't very good either.
She knew how much this would affect the old man.
This can be seen from what Dongfang Yi told her, which showed the old man's behavior after his mother disappeared.
The old man truly loved her mother.
While supporting Old Master Dongfang, Jian Yixue quietly took his pulse.
Then, with a slight frown, he quickly released his grip.
The pent-up emotions in my heart have been constantly unsettled, and the situation has worsened year by year.
The Eastern family's physician was right in his diagnosis.
If this continues, the old man will pass away within a year.
However, this was nothing compared to what she had to offer.
In a flash, Jian Yixue made a plan in her mind.
Dongfang Yi, who had been sitting and preparing, was too far away from Jian Yixue to move as quickly.
However, he was also very fortunate that Jian Yixue had helped his grandfather.
Otherwise, his sins would be even greater!
Dongfang Yi quickly stepped forward, took the grandfather from Jian Yixue's hands, and helped him up.
"Grandpa, don't get agitated. Old Master Cheng told you not to get emotional, as it's bad for your health."
Although Dongfang Yihua said so, he knew better than anyone else.
How much of a shock must have been to the old man about his aunt's uncertain fate?
He felt a vague sense of regret for telling his grandfather about it so soon.
As he spoke, Dongfang Yi helped the old man to a chair to sit down.
Old Master Dongfang seemed to have no soul, letting Dongfang Yi help him sit down.
I was stunned for a long time.
He was in immense pain.
Seeing this, Jian Yixue glanced at Ye Mohan and walked over together.
"Grandpa, don't be too sad. Your mother is still alive, and as long as she's alive, we'll find her eventually."
If your mother comes back and sees that you've fallen ill because of her, how guilty she'll feel.
You don't want your mother to come back and find you sick in bed, do you?
Jian Yixue's words touched the heart of Old Master Dongfang. He came to his senses and looked at Jian Yixue, asking her a question.
Will she really come back?
"Yes, I will definitely bring my mother back safely, no matter where she is," Jian Yixue said solemnly, her eyes filled with unwavering determination.
It was as solemn as taking an oath.
Upon hearing this, Old Master Dongfang couldn't help but burst into tears, nodding repeatedly and saying, "Good! Good! Good!"
Seeing that his grandfather had cheered up considerably, Dongfang Yi turned to look at Jian Yixue, his eyes full of unreserved praise.
He said that the benefits of Jian Yixue coming back to see her grandfather outweighed the drawbacks.
Normally, no amount of persuasion would work against them.
After some coaxing from Jian Yixue, the old man tolerated it quite well.
That's really impressive.
Jian Yixue naturally saw Dongfang Yi's gaze and understood his meaning, but she didn't pay much attention to it.
Seeing that the old man's expression had returned to normal and his emotions had calmed down, Jian Yixue asked.
"Grandpa, I want to know what exactly happened back then? Why did Mother leave the Dongfang family alone?"
Upon hearing Jian Yixue's words, Old Master Dongfang's expression suddenly changed, and a hint of self-reproach appeared on his face.
"It's all my fault! If I hadn't pressured her so much, she wouldn't have secretly left on her own."
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue frowned, but remained silent.
Dongfang Yi, who was standing to the side, also tensed up.
This was the first time he had ever heard his grandfather say this.
Hearing this, it seems that my aunt's departure was related to my grandfather.
Ye Mohan stood silently beside Jian Yixue, not intending to interfere in the matter.
At the same time, he also believed that Jian Yixue could handle everything on her own.
He would give Jane Yixue enough space and respect as long as her life was not in danger.
Old Master Dongfang was lost in painful memories.
"That year, Tinglan had just turned eighteen, and my wife and I specially held a grand coming-of-age banquet for her."
That was also the largest coming-of-age banquet in the history of the Dongfang family.
To celebrate Tinglan's birthday, I invited all the prominent families who were on good terms with the Dongfang family at the time.
At the banquet, I met my best friend, whom I hadn't seen for many years.
After the banquet, we had a special get-together, and we got along very well.
When the two talked about their children, they discovered that their children were all about the same age.
So, naturally, the topic of marriage came up.
Afterwards, I spoke with my wife about this, but she did not agree. She wanted Tinglan to stay for a few more years.
But I feel that Tinglan has grown up and we can try to communicate with her.
So I told Tinglan about it.
As expected, Tinglan refused.
But I still wouldn't give up. After discussing it with my best friend, I secretly arranged for the two of them to meet countless times.
Before long, Tinglan discovered the problem.
One day, she came to me in a fit of anger and told me that if I continued like this, she would leave the Dongfang family and I would never be able to find her again.
I didn't take Tinglan's words to heart. Later, at the suggestion of my close friend, I arranged for the two of them to meet again.
This time, Tinglan's bottom line was crossed.
The day after they met, she left a letter and departed from the Dongfang family alone.
At the time, I didn't take it to heart, thinking she was just throwing a childish tantrum.
Because she would sometimes go out for a while in the past, we thought she was just saying it.
A month later, Tinglan still hadn't returned home. When I tried to contact her, I discovered that we couldn't reach her using any of the usual methods.
It was then that I realized she was really angry.
After that, I mobilized the Dongfang family to search everywhere, but we still couldn't find her.
That separation lasted for more than twenty years.
After speaking, the old man's face was streaked with tears; sadness, regret, and self-blame filled his heart.
After hearing the story, Jian Yixue fell silent.
For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
Parents arranging blind dates for their children has existed since ancient times, simply because they want their children to have a better life.
She believed that the old man's actions were also because he wanted his daughter to have a better life in the future.
And the mother was not wrong either.
All she wanted was freedom in marriage, to not be controlled by others.
After hearing this, Dongfang Yi immediately understood why his grandfather objected to his parents arranging blind dates for him.
So there's a story behind this.
Jane thought for a moment, then decided not to dwell on things that were unrelated to finding her mother.
She has no right to interfere in the affairs of the previous generation.
All of this will be decided when Mother returns.
