C228 (2/2)
Before coming over, we had made preparations to stay here for a period of time. Otherwise, we wouldn't have packed so many things. However, in this situation …
It is already impressive that I was able to properly collect all of the items from today's meeting. I would probably have to live under the same roof as these people, much less stay here. I would be at a loss if I were to do so!
”You stinking brat! I think you've been blinded by lard! You actually dare to contradict me for this woman! You've been out there six years! The number of times I come back to see you can be counted on one hand. The old lady suddenly roared, and two streams of tears flowed down her face.
In an instant, everyone present was frightened.
Jiang Yu looked at the old lady crying and also became silent.
”Grandmother …”
”I know, you all hate me because I'm old. It's a burden! None of you want to stay with me, okay! Leave, all of you! ”I won't force you!”
As the old lady spoke, tears streamed down her face. In that instant, even I thought of my own grandmother, unable to bear it any longer.
I pulled at Jiang Yu's sleeve, and Jiang Yu looked at me with a complicated expression.
”Grandmother, don't be like this …” ”I know I didn't have a good attitude when I spoke, I was wrong, alright …”
In this world, there weren't many people who could make Jiang Yu lower his head, only an old granny.
”Then I'll ask you something, do you want to come back or not?”
”I …”
”Answer me, answer me now!”
”Grandmother …” ”Why don't you allow me to consider it for another two days …”
”Consider?!”
The old lady's tone became serious again.
”Ah Jue, you've already grown up and are no longer a child. If you just want to date me, then you can play around with me. Your father and I won't interfere, but you want to get married! This is a very important matter to our Song Family! This is related to our family's reputation and status! We will never allow you to mess around! ”
The old lady became serious, unable to keep herself in check.
”You must remember, no matter where you go, no matter what you think in your heart, you are still a person of Song Family! I have allowed you to get married. This is the biggest concession I can make. Don't push your luck too far! ”
”I know, Grandma, I'll think about it.”
Jiang Yu lowered his head, just like a child who admitted his wrongs. When the old lady saw his expression, her anger also lessened greatly.
”Ah Jue, don't blame me for forcing you. You should know that I'm already half a step into the grave. I really don't want to see the rest of my family become strangers that have nothing to do with me after a hundred years …” Alright, that's all I have to say. The choice is yours. ”
As the old lady spoke, she got up from the sofa and went upstairs. Song Lin and Heruo went back to their room to accompany the old lady.
We were alone on the second floor.
Jiang Yu sat dejectedly on the sofa, not saying a word.
As for me, I sat on the sofa without saying a word, waiting for him to make his choice.
”Qianqian …”
He looked at me, his eyes misty.
I read it all at once.
”You want to stay?”
”I wish the two of us could stay together.”
I shook my head. ”This is your home, not mine. Looking at the situation today, I'm afraid it won't be my home either. I don't want to live in the center of a verbal attack.”
