“I got a lot this time.”

Although this girl looks stupid, she has a good heart.

Qiqi touched Xiaogeng's head.

"You can go to your grandmother's house at the west end. I'm going to my grandfather's house. Don't order vegetables. The vegetables grown at my grandfather's house are thriving."

I watched Xiao Geng carrying the basket and walking towards the west end of the village. Qiqi turned north and the first house on the north side of the east end of Mazhuang was Qiqi's grandfather's house.

The main gate faces east, there are three mud houses and a side room. In front of the gate is a flat open space with several large tung trees. Under the trees to the north is a small vegetable garden. At this time, various seasonal vegetables are planted. Grandpa is diligent, and the vegetable garden is growing well.

"Grandma,"

Qiqi shouted into the yard.

The courtyard gate was open. Hearing the shouting, Qiqi's grandmother Han Wanyu walked out on her bound feet.

"Hey, it's my sweet baby. Why are you here?"

"Miss you."

He had a walnut-shaped face, an old-style round bun tied behind his head, and wore an old-style side-collared gown.

When Qiqi saw her grandma smiling with her toothless mouth wide open, her heart ached and she went forward to hug her grandma.

In her previous life, she did all kinds of things in the Yan family, and finally got divorced and went crazy. It was at that time that her grandmother fell into the pond and drowned in order to protect her.

I hugged my grandma tightly, feeling grateful and sad for having regained what I had lost.

"How did you get here? Did your stepmother scold or beat you these days?"

Grandma's pair of hands, like dry branches, were groping Qiqi's body and face.

My grandfather Xia Yuanzhi's ancestors were doctors, and their ancestral home was in Mazhuang. My grandmother Han Wanyu also came from a prominent family, the only daughter of Mr. Han, a wealthy family in the county.

After they got married, they loved each other very much. Grandma only gave birth to a daughter, Qiqi Niang, and Qiqi Niang died early, leaving only this lonely old couple.

"No, don't worry, grandma. She won't beat or scold me anymore."

"What? Your father supports you two?"

Granny Xia knew that her ex-son-in-law was henpecked and that Malanhua abused the two children. As a father, he did not dare to intervene.

"I'm leaving that house. She won't be able to hit me anymore."

"Why, can your stepmother let you go?"

My grandfather’s ancestors were doctors. Later, he was admitted to university and became a doctor in a big city. He became an expert. If it weren’t for the medical accident that year, although the details of the accident are still questionable, after all, someone died and he had to take responsibility. He was fired from his job and returned to his hometown. He lost his job and his reputation was ruined.

When they returned to the village, they were not real farmers and could not do heavy work. In addition, their grandfather was seriously ill and their grandmother was a city dweller who could not earn many work points in the village. They could not even support themselves.

Otherwise, grandma would have kept the two children by her side and raised them long ago.

"If your grandfather and I hadn't brought you home, you wouldn't have suffered so much since childhood."

Granny Xia wiped her tears. She couldn't help crying when she thought of the sad things.

Although my grandfather is in good health now, he is too old to do heavy work. Sometimes he would treat the villagers around him. He doesn't charge money, but they will give him something. It is barely enough for the old couple to live, but their life is very lonely. Because he is alone, there are not many relatives to visit.

They are old and can’t do the work in the team, and they can’t charge for medical treatment. They have no source of income.

The old couple planted some fruits and vegetables in the open space around the yard.

There was a muddy field to the north of their yard and a pond to the east. They planted crops wherever they could, and estimated that there was more than an acre of land. They harvested wheat, corn, red taro and other crops. It was barely enough to keep the old couple from starving to death. How could they support Liangshan and Qiqi?

"Grandma, don't cry. That's all in the past. My brother and I have grown up. We will support you from now on."

After hearing what Qiqi said, Granny Xia burst into laughter and wiped her tears.

"Come in, your grandpa has gone to the north beach to check traps. If the traps we set yesterday can catch a wild animal, it will give my sweetie some meat to eat."
