Not long after, Yang Pinquan came back from outside. He saw such a rude and fierce man, actually holding vegetables in his hands.

Seeing his grandmother coughing, he couldn't help but frowning.

"Didn't I tell you to stay home because it's cold? Why are you out again?"

Yang Pinquan spoke in a ferocious tone, but his movements were much slower.

He said he was angry, but in his heart he cared about her.

Grandma smiled without saying anything and let him help her into the house.

Grandma got up to cook, and Yang Pinquan quickly took the dishes and got there first.

Yang Pinquan washed, cut and cooked the vegetables skillfully without tiring the old lady at all. Ye Qingtao stood outside and watched quietly.

It turns out that such a vicious bully also has weaknesses.

Ye Qingtao's mouth corners slightly raised, with a sweet smile on her face.

At first I was still wondering where to start, but now it seems I have found the entry point.

It's good that Yang Pinquan has someone he cares about. Ye Qingtao was worried at first that he was invulnerable and only cared about money and not people.

Now it seems that this is not the case, so she stepped out and went out to eat first.

After eating and drinking, Ye Qingtao came to Yang Pinquan's door again.

At this time, Yang Pinquan had already gone out, but the old lady was still sitting at the door with a small stool, knitting a sweater.

Ye Qingtao pretended to be thirsty and went to the old lady to ask for water.

The old lady smiled and poured her a glass of boiled water.

Ye Qingtao was about to drink but then she covered her stomach and said embarrassedly.

"Grandma, I feel a little uncomfortable these days, and I can't drink cold drinks."

The old lady understood instantly and quickly took the thermos and added some boiling water to her.

"Grandma, my stomach is not feeling well. Can I sit down and drink slowly?"

Ye Qingtao glanced at the wooden sofa in the corner and asked embarrassedly.

"Sure, sure, you can sit anywhere."

As the old lady spoke, she moved the small stool back and sat not far from Ye Qingtao.

Ye Qingtao took a sip of hot tea and deliberately tried to get closer to the old lady.

"Grandma, at your age, have you always lived alone?"

Ye Qingtao first chatted briefly about family matters. The old lady looked up and was a little surprised at first, but seeing the cautious expression on her face, she felt that such a simple and lovely girl would not have any bad intentions, so she started talking.

"Not really. I still have a grandson."

When talking about her precious grandson, the old lady had a proud smile on her face.

"Your house is still so clean even at your age. Your grandson must be very good to you, right?"

Sincerity is the most powerful killer skill. When you want to have a deep communication with someone, you just need to praise the people that person cares about.

"My grandson's parents died shortly after he was born, and I raised him with all my heart and soul."

"Although he is a little naughty, he is very kind and has a very good personality. He has never been disdainful of an old man like me."

The old lady talked a lot, and Ye Qingtao listened quietly, smiling back from time to time and sometimes nodding in agreement.

The old lady became more and more excited as she spoke, and she wished she could tell her everything about Yang Pinquan wearing open-crotch pants.

Ye Qingtao listened with a smile, being a most qualified listener.

The two chatted more and more deeply, and the old lady even took the initiative to say that her grandson was a good cook and wanted to invite Ye Qingtao to dinner here in the evening.

Ye Qingtao still had to go back to be with her parents, so of course she refused without hesitation.

The old lady said her mouth was dry, so Ye Qingtao quickly poured her a cup of tea and fed it to her.

When she handed the cup to the old lady, she took the opportunity to feel her pulse.

The old man has a serious lung disease and it looks like he won't live much longer.

Yang Pinquan did all kinds of bad things outside, but his grandmother at home was his safe haven.

What he cares about most is his grandmother. Ye Qingtao has already thought about how to meet him and what to say when they meet.

"You're a pretty girl, do you live around here? Why haven't I seen you before?"

The old lady felt that she had said too much, and Ye Qingtao said almost nothing. She suddenly felt embarrassed and took the initiative to ask about her things.

Ye Qingtao was waiting for this moment. She sighed heavily and told him about her recent experiences.

"My father worked diligently all his life, but he ended up with both his legs crippled and was fired from his job."

"He is now very depressed and has had thoughts of committing suicide several times. My mother and I have no choice but to try our best to stop him. I came here this time to investigate the truth."

Ye Qingtao wiped away a few tears as she spoke.

The old man was stunned at first, and then cried even more sadly than her.

"How can such a beautiful girl like you have such a hard life?"

"What a shame these days. Is there no way out for honest people? That factory manager is really wicked to the core. He is such a piece of shit!"

The old lady kept cursing, first speaking for Ye Qingtao's parents, then starting to curse the factory director, and then she started to curse the young man who was helping the evil.

Ye Qingtao accompanied the old lady in scolding for a long time, until about four o'clock in the afternoon. Estimating that Yang Pinquan would be back in a while, Ye Qingtao got up and said goodbye.

"Grandma, I've been under a lot of pressure recently. After talking to you for so long today, I feel much more relaxed."

"My parents are still waiting for me to come home for dinner. If I don't accompany them now, I don't know what stupid things they will do."

Ye Qingtao sighed and left with a dejected look on his face.

Not long after she left, Yang Pinquan came back with some vegetables.

Yang Pinquan was relieved that grandma didn't knit a sweater at the door this time.

Before I could finish my breath, I heard my grandma cursing.

"Grandma, what's wrong with you? Who made you angry again?"

Yang Pinquan thought his grandmother was scolding him for coming home late, so he asked this question with a smile.

When he heard clearly why his grandmother was cursing, he could no longer laugh.

"Grandma, where did you hear all this?"

Yang Pinquan frowned and his expression became very ugly.

"Today a little girl came to my house to ask for water. She was pretty and cute, so I couldn't help but say a few more words to her."

"Did she tell you these things on her own initiative or did you ask?"

Yang Pinquan frowned tightly and felt very uncomfortable.

"I asked. Grandma is old and likes to chat with people when she has nothing to do. I told her a lot about you and then asked about the little girl's situation."

"The girl was very nice. She didn't hide anything from me. She just told me about the problems she had recently encountered."

"Let me tell you, this little girl's family is so miserable! Her father lost his job due to someone's trick, and now both of his legs are broken. He will most likely become disabled for life."

"His parents are in a very bad mental state right now, and they're always thinking about committing suicide. It's really pitiful that she has to go through so much at such a young age!"
