I sold grilled fish in the 70s!

Actually, Zhuzhu had already noticed that something was wrong with her father. Once, she accidentally saw Old Man Yang sitting alone in their yard, staring blankly in the direction of the boundary. What was even stranger was that whenever they mentioned the words "boundary," her father would inexplicably get angry.

One time, unable to contain her curiosity, Zhuzhu secretly went to the border when neither her father nor Yiyao were home. As soon as she arrived at the border, she saw a beautifully dressed noblewoman sitting on a stone slab, holding a wolf cub.

After making some inquiries, Zhuzhu learned that the beautifully dressed lady was actually her grandmother. Zhuzhu wanted to go up and greet the lady, but for some reason, her feet felt as if they had been maliciously filled with cement, and she couldn't take a step.

At this moment, the wolf cub in the noblewoman's arms seemed to notice Zhuzhu's presence, so it raised its little head and started howling at Zhuzhu.

The noblewoman heard the little wolf cub in her arms yelping, so she raised her proud head and glanced at Zhuzhu.

The wolf cub, restless in the lady's arms, scratched around with its little paws and bared its teeth at her as if she had done something to offend it.

Go away! You ungrateful wretch! I feed you so much good food and drink at home, and you still bare your teeth at me, just like your mother.

Hearing the noblewoman scolding her mother, the wolf cub clung to her clothes, refusing to let go. The noblewoman, helpless, had no choice but to take the ill-tempered wolf cub back into her arms and soothe it.

For some reason, Zhuzhu found the little wolf cub exceptionally cute! So she squatted down and gently stroked the little wolf cub's body with her small hands.

The noblewoman glanced at Zhuzhu, who was stroking the wolf cubs, and said, "You little girl, you're really bold! Do you know what this is?"

Zhuzhu; one look and I can tell this is a wolf cub that's just a month old. But Grandma, why are you sitting here alone, holding a wolf cub? Are you waiting for someone here?

"Lady, I'm waiting here for my eldest son to come home!" "Young lady, do you know? My eldest son hasn't visited me for over ten years. I miss him terribly, so every day I come here with his favorite pet to wait for him."

Zhuzhu: Oh! I see! May I ask, beautiful grandma, why does that uncle keep a wolf as a pet?

The noblewoman affectionately held Zhuzhu in her arms; the wolf cub's mother used to live in the mountains. Once, my eldest son went hunting in the mountains and found the mother wolf severely injured. Out of kindness, my son took the injured mother wolf home to nurse her back to health.

Zhuzhu: Grandma, aren't you afraid of having a wolf at home? People say wolves are cold-blooded and ruthless animals. Most of us keep our distance when we encounter a wolf in the mountains.

Lady: Yes! At first, we were all terrified that this she-wolf would go berserk and hurt people. To prevent this from happening, my son had a huge iron cage specially built for her. He kept her in that enormous cage, and to prevent our servants and relatives from being frightened by her, he moved her to the most secluded corner of the house.

Zhuzhu put her finger to her lips; "Who went to take care of the wolf cub's mother? Didn't you say the wolf cub's mother was injured?"

The lady affectionately ruffled Zhuzhu's hair; "Of course, it's my kind-hearted son!"

Zhuzhu: Grandma, I'll tell you a secret! Actually, my dad raised a she-wolf when he was little!

Lady: Oh! What a coincidence! Your father raised a wolf when he was young? Is your family still raising that wolf now?

Zhuzhu shook her head; "No! But Daddy did tell us that the mother wolf has always been kept at Grandma's house. It's just that Daddy doesn't seem to like going to Grandma's house for some reason. Whenever Grandma is mentioned, Daddy gets very agitated."

Lady: Why? Why does your father get so agitated whenever he mentions Grandma?

Zhuzhu scratched her hair with her little hand; "I don't know the answer to that question! It's just that my dad often stares blankly in the direction of the boundary! None of us three siblings know what he's looking at."

Lady; Little sister, can you tell Grandma your father's name?

Zhuzhu; I think my dad's name is Yang Mu something...

The noblewoman was thrilled to hear Zhuzhu say those words! She wondered if this adorable little girl might be her son Mu'er's daughter. Thinking this, she pulled Zhuzhu from her arms.

The noblewoman looked Zhuzhu up and down and muttered to herself, "Why doesn't this little girl look like my Mu'er at all? Could she be the child bride that Mu'er is preparing for her grandson?"

Lady: Honey, can you tell Grandma how many brothers and sisters you have?

Zhuzhu; including me, there are five brothers and sisters in the family. However, my second younger sister was sent by my father to another family to be a child bride!

At this moment, the noblewoman was already holding Zhuzhu and crying uncontrollably! It turned out that this noblewoman was Old Man Yang's mother. Ever since Old Man Yang had left home in a fit of anger with his mother, she would sit under the big tree at the village entrance every day, holding Old Man Yang's favorite pet.

Seeing the beautiful grandmother crying so sadly, Zhuzhu kept patting the lady's back with her little hands.

Zhuzhu: Grandma, be good! Don't cry! Don't cry! Zhuzhu is here with Grandma, so Grandma won't be lonely.

Seeing how well-behaved and adorable Zhuzhu was, Old Man Yang's mother said, "Good child, would you like to come with me to see the place where your father lived when he was a child? Oh, by the way! Your grandmother still keeps the wolf that your father raised."

Zhuzhu looked up at the sky; the sun was already setting.

Zhuzhu; Grandma, although I really want to go with you to see the place where Daddy used to live, it's already very late! If I don't go back soon, Daddy and Mommy will start to worry.

The lady could only wave goodbye to Zhuzhu; Goodbye! My lovely baby, remember to bring your brother and sister to visit Grandma next time! Grandma will prepare lots and lots of delicious food for you.
