Tian Tian's thoughts drifted far away.
In her mind flashed the kind and gentle face of her grandmother, along with those eyes, once full of pain and compassion, now slowly growing murky.
They say grandparents share a special bond with their grandchildren, treating them with kindness and love. Especially in modern times, every family cherishes their children, showering them with affection.
Like holding them carefully for fear of dropping them, or savoring them for fear they'll dissolve.
And her grandmother, the cheerful, plump old lady, was the one who held her in the palm of her hand.
It seemed that the unrelated old lady was truly her blood-connected grandmother, while the one who was in fact related by blood only saw her as an enemy.
How ridiculous!
Even the most basic bond of kinship can be seen as hostility, especially when she had nothing to do with Old Madam Mu before.
It could only be said that her and her brother's births were an intolerable presence for Old Madam Mu.
