The scroll that came to life startled her. Tong Yusui looked away in panic, and when she stood up, she slipped again and couldn't roll to the side.

"Bang." The shoes hit the ground with a crisp sound, which startled Xia Zhuomian. He was frightened and quickly asked Tong Yusui if he was injured.

"Are you OK!"

He didn't expect Suisui to get up like this. The ground was hard and cold, which was definitely not a good place to practice. No wonder it was so cheap.

"It's okay." Tong Yusui stood up first, clapped his hands, and moved. "I'm not hurt. How about you? Are you hurt?"

"I'm fine too."

Tong Yusui pulled him up, but this time she didn't dare to help him even though she saw he was about to fall. Fortunately, Xia Zhuomian had a solid foundation and could skate beautifully very quickly. However, Tong Yusui skated slowly and didn't dare to speed up.

"Do you want me to take you?" Xia Zhuomian was having a lot of fun. He slid quickly around the path and showed off his skills. After a while, he slid to Tong Yusui's side.

"Come on, I'll hold your hand."

This was something Xia Zhuomian learned from others. When he saw many people holding others' hands to learn, he knew this was a good opportunity and felt a little annoyed that he had had too much fun just now.

Looking at the enthusiastic Xia Zhuomian, Tong Yusui did not refuse and reached out to hold his hand.

In the end, the two of them didn't remember how long they played. They only knew that there were very few people in the park. They were told that they could only play for an hour, but if there weren't many people, they wouldn't rush them and would let them continue playing.

Despite this, Xia Zhuomian still gave another twenty yuan for shoe rental when he left.

Before parting, Xia Zhuomian took out a white butterfly pearl hairpin and said, "I saw this when I passed by the shop today. Here you go."

Tong Yusui saw that it was silent and had already guessed which store it was. She had basically visited all the stores near the school and had seen this jewelry before.

She wanted to refuse, firstly because she didn't like this kind of jewelry and secondly because she had no reason to accept such things.

Xia Zhuomian understood after seeing her reaction, "Don't like it?"

"I thought you just didn't like it in the future, maybe you like it now."

She will have very few interests and hobbies in the future. Ever since learning about her past, Xia Zhuomian has been wondering if it was because she was not able to obtain them as a child, so she lowered her desires and expectations, making it extremely difficult for her to develop an interest in many things later on.

Now that he has returned to the past, he hopes that his Suisui can live a happier life and have what other girls have. This is just the beginning.

Tong Yusui remained silent, her lips moved slightly before returning to calm.

"How about you just treat it as a souvenir? I'm so stupid. I finally bought the wrong gift." Xia Zhuomian was extremely disappointed, and his voice sounded listless.

"Um..." Tong Yusui's heart moved when she saw his lost look, and she quickly took the hairpin from his hand. "I think it looks pretty good, thank you!"

She walked quickly in front, holding a hairpin in her hand.

Xia Zhuomian, who was following behind, couldn't help but laugh secretly. It turns out that Suisui used to be so cute!

I don’t buy things casually. Although Sui Sui doesn’t like wearing hairpins, she likes to buy some ornamental items. This hairpin is very delicate to hold and play with...

The next morning, Tong Yusui prepared meals at home. She and Xia Zhuomian made an appointment to go somewhere else in the afternoon.

Perhaps because of the company, Tong Yusui was in a good mood at the moment, but this good mood completely disappeared when he arrived at the hospital.

She met an unexpected person, her grandmother, Ms. Quan Fanghong.

When I came in, I saw her talking impatiently about something while her hands were busy packing things.

"I really owe you. You're always thinking of good things but never think of my dirty work. You only think of me, your biological mother."

"How can you be so useless? Didn't you give him a son? Why can't you hold your head up high now? What happened before is over. Now that you've given birth to a boy, can you be a little tougher? If you continue like this, you'll never be able to hold your head up high again. You don't act like my daughter at all. You're such a coward."

Quan Fanghong is a thin and short woman. She has been strong and impetuous all her life and seems to be popular, but she just doesn't like her mother and herself.

I don’t know why he was willing to come to the hospital to help this time.

"That's enough, can you please stop talking?" Tong's mother Ying Chunmei couldn't help but speak out in an annoyed voice.

Quan Fanghong flung her clothes around, glared, pointed at Ying Chunmei's nose and cursed, "Who do you blame? You deserve it. If you had studied hard back then, you wouldn't have gotten into this. You insisted on dating me, skipping school, and insisting on marrying him. And now, didn't that guy run away? And in the end, you ended up with this rotten thing. You deserve this terrible life you've led."

She grew increasingly angry as she spoke, her hands on her hips. "You're already in high school. How many people in the village could afford that? And yet you don't know what's good and what's bad. You caused trouble for yourself and then you slandered me. Everyone in Chentai Village knows that my family has such a shameless daughter. Whoever leaves our family will be spitting on us. And you... you still have the nerve to turn your back on me. I wish I had given birth to you and drowned you in a cesspool. Woohoo, why did I give birth to a debt collector like you?"

At the end, Quan Fanghong burst into tears.

"Blame me, blame me for everything. You were the ones who forced me to marry you back then. Who would dare marry you with such a high bride price? He didn't run away, wasn't he just waiting to be taken advantage of? And high school? I went to high school because of my own hard work. Every time I went to school, I had to cry my heart out. You dragged your feet when I asked for tuition, and you gave me discounts when I asked for food. You thought you could go to school without spending a dime. I blamed you all for dropping out of school. That guy had nothing to do with me. I couldn't even eat enough every day, so what was the point of going to school?"

"You...you still blame me? You ungrateful bastard..."

……

The two of them would fight whenever they met, and nothing had changed after all these years.

To be honest, Tong Yusui had only met her grandmother a few times. Sometimes her mother would not let her go to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year. If she did not go, Quan Fanghong would be even more lazy to come, so the relationship between the two sides had almost reached freezing point.

In the end, the two of them were so angry that they turned their heads away and refused to pay any attention to each other.

Quan Fanghong sat down and saw Tong Yusui standing at the door. She was still furious and felt even more annoyed when she saw him standing there. She rolled her eyes.

"Are you blind? Don't you want to help?"

Tong Yusui walked over, put the food in his hand next to his mother and opened it, then went over to help fold the clothes silently.

The more Quan Fanghong looked at her, the more upset she became. "She's almost eighteen, why don't you just marry her off quickly? Why keep her around and make you feel uncomfortable?"

Tong Yusui was stunned, and a chill came over her heart, as if it had seeped into her bones, making her whole body cold and numb. Especially the look in her mother's eyes made her feel disgusted and nauseous. This was the first time she heard such words, and the first time she realized that she had underestimated human nature.

Ying Chunmei was somewhat tempted, but she thought that she had more than one trouble now, and her daughter was not the most important one.

"Okay, hurry up and pack up and go home. The doctor told us to leave early."

"I know, I know. I really owe you this." Quan Fanghong stood up impatiently and helped to clean up.
