"Grandma, why do you say that?" Chen Shu smiled calmly.

Grandma hugged Chen Shu and said emotionally: "I don't know, grandma just felt something was wrong and was scared."

"Grandma, don't think so wildly." Chen Shu said with a smile.

This time he came to his grandma's house. He was excited, but also scared. What he was afraid of was that grandma would ask about these things.

How painful it would be for grandma if she knew these things!

Grandma smiled and said, "It's okay as long as it's okay. It's okay as long as it's okay. I might be a little more sensitive when I get older. I'm just worried."

"Don't worry, grandma, I'm fine, we are all fine." Chen Shu held grandma's hand.

Grandma patted Chen Shu's hand: "Okay, okay."

Chen Shu felt uncomfortable inexplicably.

The current situation reminded him of his grandpa, and he still remembered that his grandpa was saying the same thing to him in those days.

This feels like explaining the aftermath!

This feeling made him feel flustered and uneasy like never before.

Another room.

"Mother."

Chen Ling lay on the wooden bed board, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

"What's wrong?" Lin Yun replied.

Chen Ling said: "Grandma looks much more haggard than before."

Lin Yun's body trembled imperceptibly, and she said in a muffled voice: "Don't think nonsense, people will be like this when they get older."

Seeing her mother say this, Chen Ling stopped worrying about this topic.

She glanced at her mother's side face and whispered: "Grandma's cooking today is not what grandpa likes."

Lin Yun turned around and looked at Chen Ling.

Chen Ling said timidly: "Those are my favorite dishes."

Lin Yun opened her mouth, and a strong feeling of guilt suddenly surged into her heart.

It turns out...that's what happened!

Chen Shu had insomnia.

Chen Shu thought a lot that night. From the first time he came to his grandpa's house, he thought about the circumstances of his grandpa's death, how depressed his grandma had been over the years, and now.

Some things must be cherished only after they are lost.

He now felt unprecedented uneasiness and fear, and he was even more afraid to tell his grandmother the truth.

Grandma still got up early.

The older generation in rural areas go to bed early and get up early. They always feel uncomfortable if they don't do some work.

When grandma got up, Chen Shu also got up.

Most of the water in the kitchen water tank was gone, so Chen Shu picked up a pole and walked to the spring on the hillside to fetch water.

People in this village and neighboring villages like to drink water from the mountains, which is cleaner and more hygienic.

When Lin Yun and Chen Ling got up, Chen Shu had already gone to the mountain carrying a pole.

"I'll go take a look too."

Chen Ling was not used to getting along with her grandma. When her mother and grandma were talking, she sneaked away after saying something.

After walking out, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she had not been to this village a few times, it was always more comfortable outside than at home.

"I wonder what grandma said before?" While walking on the road, Chen Ling suddenly remembered what she had said before.

She felt that something must have happened between her brother and her grandfather.

That seemed to be when she was eleven years old, when her grandfather passed away.

Chen Ling thought about it now and suddenly discovered something.

Although my mother was strict with my brother before, her attitude towards him seemed to have changed at that time.

Thinking of this, Chen Ling's curiosity became more and more intense.

As she was walking, several voices came from not far away.

Not far from the village, there is a big tree, and several old people are sitting around and talking.

"He is the child of Mrs. Zhang's family. This child is really filial. Their children have not come back a few times, but he comes often."

"I remember this kid, his name seems to be Chen Shu. I heard a few days ago that he was going out to buy something, and Old Man Lin followed him out, but he didn't come back."

"Yes, at that time, his father beat him black and blue. If Mrs. Zhang hadn't stopped him, he would have been beaten to death."

"It's fate. It's understandable that children are playful. It's no wonder that the child is in trouble. It's only the fault of Old Lin that he's unlucky."

Hearing these words, Chen Ling was so scared that she almost hid.

When she thought about the connection, many things became clear.

only……

Chen Ling suddenly felt a little strange. If this was the case, why was her grandma so good to her brother? It was really strange.

Muttering in his heart, he saw a figure slowly walking down the mountain carrying two buckets of water.

Chen Ling strode forward to greet him.

After breakfast.

Grandma slowly stood up and walked back to the room.

Chen Shu put away the dishes and went into the kitchen.

"Mom, do you hate my brother?"

Chen Ling thought over and over again and asked cautiously.

Lin Yun was caught off guard by the question. She opened her mouth without saying anything, then breathed out slowly: "Why do you ask that?"

Chen Ling then said what she heard from those people outside.

Lin Yun was stunned, a little lost in thought.

Then, she glanced in the direction of the kitchen and pulled Chen Ling out of the house.

"That was many years ago."

When we got outside, my mother sighed.

Chen Ling said: "Grandpa really did it because of my brother..."

Lin Yun sighed and said: "That is the thing that my mother can't let go of the most, and it is also the most painful thing in her heart."

She raised her head and glanced at her daughter.

At this time, she realized that her daughter seemed to have grown up unknowingly and became slim and graceful.

Lin Yun continued quietly: "It was during the summer vacation, and your brother was going to go to your father's company with you.

However, your father could only take care of one person, so he sent your brother to your grandfather. Fortunately, your brother did not cause trouble.

When we originally thought that things would go away like this, who knew that bad news suddenly came that your grandpa passed away. "

Chen Ling clicked her tongue a little.

When Lin Yun said this, her eyes turned red: "When we rushed over, we realized that it was your brother who wanted to go out to play.

Your grandfather couldn't resist, so he took him out. Who knew he accidentally fell down the hillside.

Your grandpa was obviously in bad health during those days, but your brother kept pestering your grandpa to go out to play. This matter always made my mother very uncomfortable.

If it weren't for him, your grandpa wouldn't have passed away. "

Chen Ling said quietly: "Those old people said that it is natural for children to love to play, but grandpa is unlucky."

Lin Yun listened without speaking for a while, then patted Chen Ling on the head: "Yes, we have been too persistent these years, but failed to see through the essence of the matter.

Mom also regrets it now. If it weren't for her persistence over the years, her relationship with your brother wouldn't have become so tense. "

At this point, she turned her head and looked at Chen Ling: "But remember, don't talk about these things in front of grandma, understand?"

"I know." Chen Ling said.

Lin Yun nodded with satisfaction: "Your grandma has been very haggard recently. What you said about your grandpa will definitely be uncomfortable for her and it will be very bad for her health."
