Especially the famine years, the old man still remembers it vividly when talking about it, and he couldn't help choking up as he spoke.
Many people starved to death at that time, and Mr. Lin’s father was one of them.
Chen Wang listened quietly, acting as a suitable listener, and only spoke words of comfort after the old man had finished speaking.
"Grandpa, you and grandma are blessed people. Look at you now. You have many children and grandchildren, and you don't have to worry about food and drink. You two old people just need to take care of your health and live for a few more decades. I see that your future will get better and better."
"If I live for another few decades, I'll become an old monster. My life is good enough now, how much better it will be in the future? I really don't dare to think about it!"

Chen Wang smiled and raised his wrist to check the time.

"All right!"
The old man didn't try to persuade her any further.

Mr. Lin instructed with a kind smile on his face.
"Goodbye, uncle!"
Lin Yumeng stood beside his parents and waved goodbye with a sweet smile.
"Bye-Bye!"
Chen Wang smiled slightly and rode away on his bicycle.
