Chapter 313 Talking about the past
After Su Ruanruan and Su Jiefang left, Grandma Chen sat at the table. Opposite her was Su Aimin, who was sitting in a wheelchair.
Granny Chen stared at Su Aimin's face for a long time before she spoke with a sigh and a nostalgic tone.
"When you first left, we had just gotten married. At that time, you were seventeen years old."
"Tell me to wait for you and come back as soon as you have time."
"You came back twice in the next two years."
"During those two years, your parents fell ill one after another, and I was the only one who took care of them and saw them to their final resting place."
"You left again when you were twenty. Before you left, you told me to wait for you and that you would definitely come back."
"I have been waiting, and then, I received the news that you were gone."
"Our village was transformed into a production brigade. As a widow, I went to work with the men in the production team every day, doing all the hard and tiring work."
"People say that widows are prone to gossip. There were always people trying to get close to me. It was only because I took the kitchen knife and swung it away without caring about my life that I was able to earn a peaceful life."
"Later, I adopted Ruanruan. She was a soft, fair, cute, well-behaved and pretty little girl. I gave her the surname Su, thinking that it would be a way to leave a descendant for your Su family. After a hundred years, at least someone would remember your Su family."
"Ruanruan just got engaged this year. The man he is talking about is Xiao Dashan's grandson. The boy is honest and reliable, and he treats Ruanruan very well."
"I thought that when Ruanruan got married in a few years and had children, I would take care of the children for her, and that would be the end of my life."
Granny Chen stopped and looked at Su Aimin deeply, "Then, I heard that you were still alive."
After saying this, Grandma Chen sighed deeply, as if she wanted to let out all the anger in her heart.
But how could it be possible? The heavy burden on my heart was like a huge stone, how could I just let it go so easily? Su Aimin had been listening to Grandma Chen quietly until Grandma Chen stopped talking, and then he finally spoke.
"It was difficult back then, not to mention how hard it was. It wasn't easy for anyone. Later, Aijun and his wife were gone, leaving only Jiefang. Jiefang was still a little kid at the time, he didn't know anything. I couldn't take care of him all day, so I asked someone else to help me take care of him. That person didn't know anything, he just kept calling Jiefang "Dad, Dad" all day long. Jiefang would call me dad whenever he saw me, and he wouldn't change his mind even after I told him."
"I thought the child was still young, so I let him call me and I would tell him when he grew up. When he grew up, I told him his life story. He said that he could not forget the kindness of giving birth to him and raising him, and that I would be his father from now on."
"Later, we were liberated, but I was seriously injured. Zidan had compressed my nerves, so I had to undergo surgery. This surgery was a life-threatening one, and I thought I couldn't let you keep waiting like this, so I told you that if I didn't wake up, I would have them tell you I was dead and give you a pension every month so that you wouldn't have to wait for me and could find someone else to marry."
"I never thought that I would wake up one day. After I woke up, I asked someone about your situation. I learned that you had never married and adopted a little granddaughter. Now your life is not going well, so I asked Jiefang to pick you up."
"After you came back from liberation, you told me why you didn't want to come. I knew you were angry."
