She told Sun Lifang, "I'll figure it out myself, you don't need to worry about it. Just come back for a couple of days and then go back."
What's your solution?
Sun Lifang laughed: "Move back to the old house? Do you think hiding from my mom will solve the problem?"
Hearing her say that, Grandma Sun's eyes filled with tears again, and she threw the small cotton quilt in her hand onto the bed. "What can I do? I have a completely innocent relationship with him!"

Grandma didn't want to talk about it, so she believed what her mother said.
She said, "Your grandma is confused and insists on living by herself. Don't force her to move to the city. Sending the money back is the same thing."
