Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Yong—” Great-Grandma Jiang’s eyes widened, and she looked like she was about to faint.
“Great-Grandma!” The Jiang Family was frightened.
Old Madam Wang was calm and composed as she instructed Madam Ma who was standing there in a daze, “Go and tidy up my room and let the Old Madam rest.”
Madam Ma did not dare to ask why she had to give up her room for old lady, but she still nodded and went to work.
Although the family had bought some servants to handle the rough work.
Madam Ma was still the one cleaning the rooms.
Seeing this, Wang Aibao hurriedly followed to help her clean up.
The family had been busy for the past two days, and Erlang was seriously injured. He was still recuperating, so she tactfully did not mention Zao’er.
Although she was anxious, Liu Shi and Madam Ma had persuaded her repeatedly. In the end, she calmed down and knew that her mother must have a deeper reason for not answering her.
As soon as Great-Grandma Jiang lay down in Old Madam Wang’s room, she chased the Jiang Family out, even her favorite Jiang Wujing.
Old Madam Wang did not do this and let her favorite Little Ah Yu sit in front of her.
Great-Grandma propped up her upper body and looked at Little All Yu, her heart filled with joy. “This is your granddaughter, right? She’s really good-looking.”
“Yes, this is our only granddaughter. She’s usually doted on and is used to being pampered.” Old Madam Wang’s tone softened as a rare smile appeared at the corners of her eyes.
“Girls should be pampered. Boys aren’t good. If they’re slightly pampered, they’ll lose their edge.” Great-Grandma Jiang sighed.
It was unknown what she thought of, but her eyes darkened.
Little All Yu raised her head and looked at Old Madam Wang, then at
Great-Grandma Jiang. She was very puzzled.
However, she also understood now that sometimes, children could not talk casually.
She asked Meatbail in her heart, “Elf, do Grandma and this old Grandma know each other?”
[They should know each other. I just refreshed the relationship map here. It shows that your Grandma and this old lady of the Jiang Family are old friends.]
[They should have known each other in the past.]
[Don’t worry, she doesn’t have any ill intentions towards your Grandma and likes you very much.]
Especially when Old Madam Wang mentioned Little All Yu just now,
Great-Grandma Jiang’s affection towards her soared.
It was difficult not to suspect that she liked Little All Yu more because she loved Old Madam Wang.
Little All Yu nodded. “It’s fine as long as she likes Grandma.”
Many people in the family were afraid of Grandma, but Little Ah Yu had never been afraid of her. She even felt that Grandma was very lonely and especially hoped that more people would discover Grandma’s good qualities and like her.
“Yong—” Great-Grandma Jiang wanted to call Old Madam Wang’s name again, but she held her hand.
Old Madam Wang said, “Auntie Lan, call me like before. There’s no need to mention those past events anymore. It’ll only add to your worries.”
“Alright.” Great-Grandma Jiang lowered her eyes, her tone extremely lonely. “Things have changed now. It’s no longer the same as before. Little Darling, where have you been all these years? Are you doing well?”
Old Madam Wang: “I’ve been quite well. Life is free and relaxed. I can say whatever I want.”
Also, the child could be beaten up if she wanted to. It depended on her mood.
“Elf, what does Little Darling mean?” Little Ah Yu had always remembered this name but she had never heard of it before. She felt very curious.
[It should be a colloquial term from the West Wind Nation that typically refers to a young girl, often used as a term of endearment. It can also be used to describe a daughter or a younger sister. It’s a nickname.]
“Wow, is this Grandma Grandma’s mother?”
[No.]
Great-Grandma Jiang calling her “Little Darling” awakened Old Madam Wang’s memories from many years ago. At that time, she was only a young girl, but she had already been doted on.
In the entire Wanning City, if she claimed to be number two, no one dared to say that they’re number one. Even the other princesses could not cover her glory.
If one stood high, they would not be able to take another step forward. It was like boiling oil. Every step after reaching the boiling point led to a downward spiral.. How could it be considered a blessing?
