After that, Cheng Cheng not only stayed in school but also went back to Xiaomao Village to meet the grandparents who raised the original body. They could no longer walk as agilely as before.

He did not listen to her and stop working to save money. He continued to work in the fields and weave baskets until very late before he had a chance to eat. He was reluctant to eat the food at home and would save it and wait for her to come back to cook a full meal.

Every time she saw them trembling, she became very worried, so she persuaded them to come and live with her in Qinghe City. She had a part-time job and had money, so she could live closer and did not have to live on campus, and could come back to see them often.

We can take better care of their health to avoid the danger of having no one to take care of them if something happens in a small mountain village with few people and poor medical conditions.

But after several attempts to persuade her, her grandparents still refused to agree. They always held her hands and patted them, saying through their leaky teeth: "Don't worry, girl. You will be worthy of us if you study hard and get into college."

"Okay, grandma. I promise you, but you also have to promise me that you and grandpa will take good care of your health and not let me worry."

Grandma would always stroke her hair and comfort her, "Don't worry, study hard."

"Okay, I understand."

During the few days he stayed in Xiaomao Village, Chengcheng saw the shadow of poverty in this family countless times.

The village has no money to connect to water and electricity, so they rely on the water in the original ditch for water and food. The water in the ditch has been there for many years, and stratified sediments can be seen in the water underground.

Even so, many people still drink this kind of water.

It is hard to imagine what harm drinking it would cause to the body, and it is difficult to say how many microorganisms are contained in water sources that have not undergone systematic disinfection.

In this era, there are many villages that have not yet escaped poverty.

She wanted to help the village get out of poverty, but she couldn't come up with a lot of money without a legitimate reason.

Even if she earned the money by working, it was impossible for her to have that much money considering the wages in that era.

She saw the poverty of Xiaomao Village, and she didn't want to see her grandparents, who raised her, living this kind of life for a long time.

So Chengcheng thought about it and decided to take out some money to solve the most pressing problem in the village and get running water.

With running water, villagers and grandparents no longer have to drink water from the ditch.

Chengcheng also made an agreement with her grandparents that she would come back to see them often, and would exchange the remaining part of her monthly salary for food to bring back.

You should eat every meal at home, and not just eat one meal to save money.

Grandpa and grandma smiled and nodded and agreed quickly, but she knew that after she left, they would go back to their old lifestyle and would be reluctant to eat the food and leave the good ones for her.

Wasn't it the same thing last time? My grandparents had attended literacy classes and knew what she was going to say in the letter, but they just didn't do it.

He was stubborn and insisted on working to save money for her. It can be said that after their two sons died unexpectedly, the grandparents gave her everything they had.

After a year, Zhou Ye never came back and the letters stopped during this period.

The two haven't been in touch for a long time. Chengcheng doesn't know if she is just too busy in the national team, is she in closed training and not allowed to communicate with the outside world, or is it that Zhou Ye has forgotten about her?

I asked his friends who were still here, and they all said they didn't know what happened to him now.

She didn't understand, and with such confusion she wanted to go to Beijing to find him, but before she went, something happened again.

Just as the saying goes, "After one crisis comes another," her biological parents came to the school to find her and said they wanted to take her home.

No matter how hard she struggled, it was of no use; they showed no appreciation at all.

They also revealed even more explosive news: her grandparents who raised her passed away during this period, and since she had no guardian, they wanted to take her back to raise her.

This was hard for Chengcheng to accept, and she didn't believe what they said.

I insisted on going back to see it with my own eyes, and asked for a long vacation from school for this purpose.

When I returned to Xiaomao Village, I really saw that the roof of my house was covered with white cloth. When I walked inside, I found that my originally peaceful home had been transformed into a mourning hall.

When the villagers saw her, they looked at her with strange and cold eyes.

"Why did you come back just now? Are you a human being? These are your grandparents who raised you. Even if they have been raising a kitten or a puppy for so many years, they should have some conscience, right?"

"Not to mention how much effort your grandparents put into raising you, just look at your biological parents. If they hadn't come, your grandparents wouldn't have been so upset that they passed away."

"What sin did they commit? Their own child died unexpectedly, and they raised someone else's child. They haven't enjoyed a single day of peace and happiness yet, and they're gone just like that."

"Yes, the old couple has never had a good day for this family."

"It's all this family's fault. They had to come to the village to ask for the child. Neither of the old couple wanted to let the child leave them. Once they got angry, they couldn't calm down."

"It's pitiful that he has to deal with this at his old age."

"Well, who says it's not true? If someone else had raised the child, there wouldn't be so many problems."

……

The villagers' words pierced her body like sharp swords, and a heart-wrenching pain spread throughout her body.

It was too much for her to bear for a moment. Her whole body was trembling and her pale lips could not reveal a single trace of blood even if she bit them tightly.

After learning the reasons behind all these results, she looked at her original body's parents with an embarrassed and determined look, and said in a hoarse voice, "Why did you do this?! Can't you just get out of my world?!!"

"Liang Jing, we didn't do this on purpose. I just want to take you back to your real home. Don't you want to go back? Don't you want to live with your mom and dad?" As he said this, the original father couldn't help but want to get closer to Chengcheng.

With resentment in her heart, Cheng Cheng pushed him, her eyes becoming colder, "You are so ridiculous. You gave birth to me and didn't want me, but now you are pretending to take me back. Am I your property? You can throw me away if you want to, and come back to snatch me away if you want me back?"

Seeing this, the original mother did not give up and tried to persuade him, saying, "Mom doesn't want to do this either. I just want to see what your life was like when you were a child. But when I came here, I knew what the situation is like here. There is nothing here and the conditions are so poor. Xiaojing, you can't stay here. You have to go with mom and dad."

"You are a piece of flesh and blood that fell from my body. As a mother, how can I not consider my own child? Although I live in the countryside now, the environment there is much better than here. Everyone in the family will support you in your studies..."

Listening to what the original mother said, Cheng Cheng felt it was ridiculous. Without thinking, she rushed over and grabbed her collar tightly, shouting hysterically: "Go away! I don't want to listen to you talking nonsense to me here. I won't go with you, so forget it. I know my life experience very well, and I also know what kind of person you are. There is no need to discuss family ties with me here."
