Chen Qing looked at Xiao Yu's face, which still had a bit of baby fat, but her composure when faced with problems surpassed that of many others.
She felt a little lost for a moment.
She once read a sentence in a book: "One person's growth is often another person's loss."
She initially thought it was pretentious, but now it seems that it really is.
Xiao Yu has grown up.
She felt somewhat disappointed.
Chen Qing tried to adjust his posture and communicate with her in an adult way: "If you insist on exercising, I definitely can't stop you, but I can't let your body go untreated, and the whole family will be worried."
Xiaoyu: "Auntie, didn't you say you had a prescription? I will take the medicine obediently. When I go to the capital next month to participate in the National Games, I will go to see him and explain my situation to him."
After pondering for a while, Chen Qing said, "Your brother will be back before the National Games, and he will take you with him."
"Okay." Xiaoyu looked at her aunt's worried face, leaned on her shoulder, and asked softly, "Did I make you worry?"
Chen Qing denied it: "No."
Xiao Yu didn't expose her, but just leaned against her quietly.
Chen Qing sighed.
Heartache, regret, pride, and helplessness.
All I ever wanted was for you to be safe.
Xiao Yu is a character who is erased from the original work. She is frail and sickly, timid and cowardly, a burden, and the main element that stimulates the villain He Yuxiang to turn evil.
After Chen Qing transmigrated, he always had only one request for Xiao Yu: to live well.
But Xiaoyu forged her own path.
A man of both literary and martial talents, radiating brilliance!
Chen Qing felt sorry for him, but she couldn't bring herself to completely stop him.
Xiao Yu's almond-shaped eyes curved into a smile: "I know."
Chen Qing helplessly touched her hair.
There is warmth and affection in the house.
On the other side.
Yang Yihe excitedly followed her master home, and the two of them were planning who to invite to celebrate.
Suddenly, there was a loud banging on the door, like a debt collector coming to collect a debt. The banging was urgent and irritable.
The two were so frightened that they immediately stood up.
Thinking of her money, Yang Yihe secretly took a pair of scissors from behind her back and hid them there.
When she opened the door, she found three people who were both familiar and unfamiliar to her!
Maternal grandparents, He Yaozu.
Yang Yihe opened the door, and a warm breeze carrying the scent of the hallway rushed in, but it made her feel cold.
"Xiaohe, this building is really hard to find." Grandpa He smirked, his gaze sweeping over her brand-new house like a searchlight, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his cloudy eyes.
Grandma Yang then shoved the boy behind her forward, her voice sweet as honey: "Xiao He, look who's here! It's your little brother Yaozu. He's been talking about missing his sister. You've really made something of yourself now, bringing honor to our He family!"
Looking at their faces, Yang Yihe felt as if despair was being poured over her head like ice water in the dead of winter, freezing her to the bone.
"Xiaohe, you are the eldest sister, and an eldest sister is like a mother!" Grandma Yang's voice pulled her back to reality. "We are old and no longer capable. Yaozu's future education and marriage will depend entirely on you, his promising older sister. You can't abandon him; he is the only heir of our He family."
Grandpa He chimed in from the side, his tone leaving no room for argument: "You got into Tsinghua University, so you'll be a citizen of the country in the future. Isn't it only right that you help your brother out?"
She watched their mouths open and close, looked at He Yaozu's spoiled appearance, and seemed to hear the vicious curses from her childhood echoing in her ears again.
The harsh words, such as "worthless good-for-nothing" and "Why don't you die in your brother's place?" echoed in my ears.
The words she thought she had forgotten resurfaced in her mind.
She finally managed to break free and embark on the path to the light, but the vampires, drawn by her scent, came again.
She didn't speak, and the air seemed to freeze, with only the electric fan still spinning and humming.
After a long pause, Yang Yihe’s voice was surprisingly calm, carrying a detachment that was incongruous with her age: “You’ve got it wrong. I was able to get into Tsinghua University because my master taught me how to be a person and supported my studies. It was because the country restored the college entrance examination. It has nothing to do with your He family.”
Grandma Yang's fake smile froze. She hadn't expected Xiao He to react this way—no crying, no fuss, not even a hint of agitation. She immediately put on a heartbroken expression: "Xiao He! How can you say such a thing? Can blood ties be severed so easily? Without us, where would you be? You have the He family blood flowing in your veins!"
Seeing her lifeless face and lack of respect for the elderly couple, Grandpa He's feigned gentleness instantly crumbled: "Now that you're living a good life, do you look down on people?!"
Grandma Yang wiped away her tears and slapped herself repeatedly: "It's all my fault. I'm so incompetent that I didn't have a job. I only thought about our poor financial situation, so I sent you to your master to be raised. That's why you can't be recognized by your ancestors. I'm a sinner of the He family!"
He Yaozu was so frightened by his grandmother's actions that he burst into tears, his voice shrill, with snot and tears streaming down his face.
Hearing the commotion, the neighbors came out to see what was going on.
Seeing the elderly couple dressed in tattered clothes and the wailing child, they asked Yang Yihe, "Who are these people?"
Having been neighbors for so many years, I've never seen Yang Yihe and Lin Leyu have relatives like this.
Grandpa He saw that they were all dressed smartly, like high-ranking leaders, and subconsciously straightened his clothes. But when his gaze fell on Yang Yihe, he saw that she was dressed in a bright and beautiful way, her watch was shining, and her eyes were bloodshot. "I am this child's maternal grandfather!"
Grandma Yang wiped away her tears and said, "I am Xiaohe's grandma."
He Yaozu puffed out his chest: "I am Yang Yihe's younger brother, and I will be the pillar of the family in the future. I am the man she will have to rely on!"
Yang Yihe felt the air was so thick she was suffocating.
The neighbors were shocked by Yang Yihe's reaction: "Really?"
Xiaohe usually eats, drinks, and dresses well, so why are her grandparents living so poorly?!
Yang Yihe's lips were tightly pressed together, and her clenched fists were trembling slightly.
Seeing that someone was backing him up, Grandpa He scolded even more righteously, and also brought out his trump card: "Who raised you when you were a child? Who gave you a house to live in? Your grandparents don't recognize you, and your own brother doesn't recognize you either. What's the use of you studying so much if you have no conscience? You're still just as heartless as a wolf in sheep's clothing. Now you're harming your own family, but who knows, in the future you might see a bigger benefit and harm everyone else!"
His true intentions were revealed.
It startled everyone around.
This statement is tantamount to implying to everyone that Yang Yihe is willing to abandon her original family for Lin Leyu's benefit, and that once she achieves success in the future, she will definitely betray her country for foreign interests and become a traitor!
If Yang Yihe dares to disown her maternal grandparents today, this charge will be firmly sealed on her!
Lin Leyu hurriedly went to get the household registration transfer certificate: "This is the agreement you signed back then. You and Xiao He have no relationship anymore!" (End of this chapter)
