Who says real and fake daughters can’t be sisters?
Chapter 40: The Proud Old Man
Seeing the grandparents and grandchildren hugging each other, the Ji couple didn't know what to do. However, Yu Qin and Zhang Yuanhuai couldn't let them just hug each other and cry, so they went forward together to persuade them.
"Mom, you were complaining about the eldest girl not coming back, and now that this child has finally come back, you just hold her and let her cry. The child must be feeling sad." Zhang Yuanhuai said.
Yu Qin also chimed in: "That's right, Mom, the children are back to see you, let's go inside first, you're not in good health, you can't stand this."
Yuan Luo also thought that her grandma was not in good health, so she quickly stopped crying and comforted her: "Grandma, don't cry, I'm back now, you can see I'm fine, I will come back during the holidays, don't be sad."
Grandma Zhang also began to calm down, wiped her tears, and said, "Yes, yes, don't be sad, let's go inside."
As she spoke, she took her granddaughter's hand and went into the house. She didn't bother to pay attention to the annoying people next to her. They were all unreasonable. They dared to send her precious granddaughter away without even telling her.
Zhang Yuanhuai was a little embarrassed and explained to the Ji family couple, "Don't be surprised. When she was young, we were busy, so Yuanluo stayed with her grandmother most of the time. The old lady loved her the most. After knowing that Yuanluo had gone back, the old lady secretly wiped away her tears for a long time, and she is still angry now."
The Ji couple naturally couldn't be surprised. They came here in a hurry before and only vaguely guessed that the Zhang family treated Yuan Luo well, but they didn't expect that the whole family treated her like a spoiled child.
The grandson of the Zhang family was standing aside, and the old lady didn't even look at him. When the uncle of the Yu family came yesterday, he brought the food that Yuanluo liked to eat. He was also chatting with Yuanluo while eating, and their intimacy didn't seem to be fake.
So the couple could only smile and say, "It doesn't matter. The old lady loves Yuanluo too much."
The grandparents and grandchildren walked into the house and talked with their heads together.
"Grandma, where is my grandpa? Isn't he at home?" Yuanluo couldn't help but ask when she didn't see her grandpa coming out.
Grandma Zhang curled her lips and said, "Don't pay attention to him. He was upset that you didn't say goodbye when you left, so he was sulking in the house, saying that he didn't want to see you, a heartless little thing."
Yuanluo thought about it and realized that this was indeed something her grandfather would do. She also felt that she had been confused by the sudden change and left without even saying goodbye properly.
So he said, "Then I'll go and comfort grandpa. He must be angry with me."
Grandma Zhang didn't stop her, as she knew her old man's temper best. When Yuanluo went to find him, he was considered a man of integrity for being able to keep a straight face for three minutes. Now that she was still sulking, it would take some time for him to come out.
When Yuanluo went in, she saw the old man sitting on the single sofa. When he saw her come in, he couldn't help but snorted and turned his head away, trying not to look at her.
Yuanluo walked over, shook Grandpa's arm, and called out, "Grandpa."
The old man endured it and didn't break his composure. Yuanluo changed sides and moved closer, shouting "Grandpa".
The old man snorted again and turned his head away again.
Seeing that acting like a spoiled child didn't work, Yuan Luo had to resort to her trump card and sobbed softly, "At the beginning, they said that I was their biological parents, and that my family happened to be in a difficult situation. If I went back, they would give me some money. What if I didn't go back? Would my parents have to work day and night for money?"
Seeing Yuanluo crying, the old man could no longer hold back, and quickly raised his hand to wipe the tears from his granddaughter's face, coaxing her: "My dear girl, don't cry, don't cry, Grandpa is not angry with you, don't cry."
"Grandpa isn't angry, so why doesn't he pay attention to me? He didn't even go out to see me when I came back." Yuanluo cried even louder.
Grandma Zhang couldn't sit still after hearing the crying. Why was she crying again? So she quickly went into the house and pulled the child to her side. She said to her old man angrily, "The child finally came back, and you are making trouble. You have to be quiet until the child ignores you."
Grandma then pulled Yuanluo out, saying, "Let's go, let's ignore your grandpa. He's just having a seizure. Don't pay attention to him."
Grandpa Zhang felt aggrieved, but he couldn't say anything. When he saw his eldest granddaughter, whom he hadn't seen for half a year, being dragged out, he quickly stood up and followed.
We talked together for a long time, had lunch in my grandparents' yard, and then said goodbye and went to my uncle's house.
When I arrived, I saw my grandfather standing at the door smoking his pipe. From time to time, he talked to the people standing nearby, but his eyes were always fixed on the direction where Yuanluo and the others came from.
Finally seeing someone, grandpa put away his pipe and went to greet them. When he saw Yuanluo, his eyes were filled with joy. He walked forward to look at Yuanluo and said, "Good, really good. You've grown taller and are prettier than before."
"Grandpa, why are you standing at the door? Didn't I tell you to smoke less? Your lungs are not in good condition, so why are you smoking again?" Yuanluo said angrily, but her tone was full of intimacy.
The person standing nearby and chatting with the others said, "You are really wronging your grandfather. His pipe is just a decoration now. He doesn't even light it. If you saw him smoking, he would definitely be angry."
Another person also spoke up, "I was wondering if your grandpa was always ignoring us when we talked to him today, and he kept staring to the south. It turns out that his granddaughter is coming today."
Grandpa was a little embarrassed by the teasing, and said to the person who talked to him, "Go away, go away, you just talk nonsense all day long. No one will think you are dumb if you don't speak."
After saying this, he welcomed everyone into the house and called out, "Old lady, here comes Yuanluo."
Yu's grandmother quickly opened the door curtain and came out. Seeing Yuanluo, she said, "I told you to come over this afternoon, but your grandfather didn't listen. He has been lingering at the door since the early morning to see if you'd come."
Grandpa Yu curled his lips, put his hands behind his back, and looked a little unconvinced. He didn't know who had put out the foods that Yuanluo liked so early in the morning. He put them back and forth, looked at them from time to time, and rearranged them.
However, his family status made him afraid to refute and he could only silently acknowledge that he could not keep his temper.
Although Yu's grandmother prided herself on being patient, she held her granddaughter's hand from the moment Yuanluo entered the door and never let go.
The Zhang family seemed to have gotten used to it, and Zhang Pengcheng, who was standing in the back with a very low presence, didn't seem to think there was anything wrong.
The group stayed at Yu's house until after dinner before returning to Zhang's house. After this day's experience, the Ji couple understood more about Yuanluo's previous life. They were grateful to her adoptive parents for loving and pampering her, but they also felt regretful that they had missed so many years of their daughter's growth.
The Ji couple didn't even know for a moment whether it was right or wrong to bring Yuanluo back to the Ji family. It seemed that they never cared whether Yuanluo was willing or not.
