Hearing this, Lin Che turned around and looked at Gu Jingze.
He narrowed his eyes and walked to Lin Che's side calmly.
Lin Che looked up and asked, "You're up."
Gu Jingze patted her head and said, "Silly, I'm standing here. I just got up. Did you see a ghost?"
Lin Che pouted and covered her head. "You're so annoying. I was just greeting you!"
Gu Jingze just smiled and glared at her.
The people sitting opposite them looked at the two of them enviously. When they stared at Gu Jingze, they were all praising him in their hearts.
"Aiya, we've never seen such a good-looking person here. Old Madam Qiu, you're so lucky."
Grandma also looked up at the two of them.
As someone who had been through it, she naturally knew what the best state of a couple was.
When two people fooled around unscrupulously like this, it was the most loving moment.
Because it seemed to have become normal, and they weren't doing anything deliberately.
Grandma was very happy. She looked at the two of them and said, "Come and eat."
Gu Jingze ate breakfast with the two of them. After that, he walked around the place and looked around.
Lin Che just looked at Gu Jingze, who was strolling outside and making phone calls from time to time, and helped Grandma pack things.
Grandma looked at Lin Che and said with a smile, "Jingze is really a good person. I didn't have much contact with him when I was in B City, but he's willing to live here for you and doesn't mind anything. He's really good."
Lin Che looked outside gently. "Yeah, he's always been good."
Grandma smiled and said, "That's how a couple should be together. The more I look at Jingze, the more I like him. He has a good personality and most importantly, he doesn't mind us at all. You're luckier than your mother, sigh …"
"Grandma, didn't my mom tell you how she met my dad? The strange thing is … I didn't see any of my dad in the photos. Didn't she know my dad when she was here? "
Grandma said, "That's right. After your mom ran away from home and went to B City, she met your dad. We've never heard of him before."
"Did my mother run away from home to B City?" Lin Che had never heard his mother mention his past. Even now, he still didn't know why his mother had become a mistress in other people's mouths, and his mother hadn't even offered a single explanation.
Grandma said, "The people in the photo were all her teachers. One of them, whose surname was Lu, had always thought highly of your mother and recommended her to go to university in B City. Your mother finally got in, but unfortunately, our family didn't have the money to pay for her to go to university. We were very poor back then, so we wanted her to go to university nearby, but your mother was very stubborn. In the end, she went to B City alone and didn't ask for a single cent from our family. At that time, your mother would still call us if there was nothing important, but gradually, the calls decreased. Until she passed away, she didn't say what happened to her."
Grandma sighed as she thought about it. "I always thought that if we had let her go to B City and sold everything we had to let her go to university, maybe things wouldn't have turned out this way. She must have suffered a lot in the outside world. That's why she used up all her energy to … pass away so early."
Lin Che held his grandmother's hand and said mildly, "No one thought that the final outcome would be like this. At that time, everyone was poor, and Grandma didn't want it to be like this."
"In the end, people from small places don't understand these things. Grandma wasn't educated all her life, and when she understood, it was too late for regrets. But Grandma believes that your mother isn't a bad person. They say that your mother became someone's mistress, but I don't believe them. Your mother must have fallen into someone's trap."
"Yeah, I don't believe it either."
The two chatted for a while before Lin Che said, "Then, Grandma, can I bring that photo back? I don't have a single photo of my mother at home."
"Of course you can. Take it and keep it for Grandma. Grandma is old, how many years can I keep it?"
"How can that be? Grandma's health is better than mine. You'll definitely live to a ripe old age!"
–
At noon, the three of them had lunch together. Gu Jingze suddenly said, "Grandma, I've asked someone to prepare a house nearby. It's a little inconvenient for you to live here. Why don't you move there tomorrow and enjoy your old age?"
Grandma was very surprised to hear that. "Ah, it's okay. I'm already old, and I can still live here for a few years. I'll just live here. The place is just enough for me."
"Grandma, although you're still healthy, it's not convenient for you to live here. It's too tiring to go to the bathroom or the kitchen. The place I've found for you is not far from here. It's the house behind. It's not very big, but it's very suitable for you. If you move there, the neighbors won't be far from you, and you'll be familiar with the place."
"But it's too wasteful. I don't need such a nice place," Grandma said.
Gu Jingze said, "Lin Che works hard to make money so that his family can have a good life. Otherwise, we'll be enjoying ourselves at home while the elders are still suffering. How can we be at ease? Lin Che lives far away, and he can't accompany you every day. If you live a better, more comfortable, and less tired life, Lin Che will be at ease in City B, right?"
Hearing that, Lin Che looked at Grandma and nodded. "Yes, yes, Grandma. Otherwise, I'll always want to visit you. How can I work peacefully?"
Hearing their words, Grandma's eyes became moist.
But in the end, she still agreed.
After that, Gu Jingze took Lin Che and Grandma to see the new house in the back.
It was located behind the town. It was indeed not far from where they were. It was a newly developed area, with a row of small buildings in the front and a normal apartment in the back.
Gu Jingze chose a small building in the front. It had two floors and was more than two hundred square meters. The decoration was already done, and they could move in at any time.
Gu Jingze said, "I've asked someone to arrange the bedrooms downstairs. This way, Grandma doesn't have to run up and down the stairs."
Grandma still felt that it was a waste. She said from time to time, "This place is too big. It's too nice."
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze. He had already arranged for someone to renovate it. Standing there, he looked at Lin Che and said, "Why are you staring at me?"
Lin Che was just thinking that he had been doing this the whole time.
She thought that he was dealing with work, so she kept calling him, but it turned out that he was asking someone to help find a place for Grandma.
