C71 (1/2)

This winter more than ten years ago, was actually the winter that Chen Jiajia's family suffered the most. She had lost her loving father, and it had taken a long time for her and her mother to recover from their grief.

After that, Chen's Mother moved here with Chen Jiajia. However, every year after that, Chen's Mother would take Chen Jiajia to sweep the tomb, and then return to their home for a few nights. That was the place where they had lived from the very beginning.

”Alright, I'll be back in two days.” Chen Jiajia sighed, she did not know how hard her mother had endured through all these years.

Hearing that her mother was coughing constantly recently, and that her body wasn't too well either, she couldn't help but worry. Speaking of which, it had been a long time since she went back to take a look.

After hanging up, Chen Jiajia explained to her mother about sweeping the tomb at home.

”Do you want me to come with you?” What was this?

Chen Jiajia shook his head: ”No need, just two days on the island is more than enough for you, I think it's better to take care of the work first.” Perhaps it was because she had delayed too much work before, but when she returned, he found that she was even busier than before.

”It doesn't matter. I don't need this bit of effort.” What do you mean? But this time, Chen Jiajia was exceptionally persistent.

Under Chen Jiajia's insistence, she had no choice but to compromise.

Thus, after resting for a day, Chen Jiajia went home to bring her mother back. The two of them chatted about recent events while they were on the way back.

”What do you mean and what do you mean... How have you been? ” Chen's Mother hadn't seen her daughter for a long time, and couldn't help but ask after being courteous for a long time.

”It's pretty good.” Chen Jiajia did not understand and replied. Why did her mother ask him this all of a sudden?

”I mean, are you going to keep it that way? ”I think that child is pretty good, and he really cares about you.” The Chen's Mother said.

Chen Jiajia's face reddened. ”We … In an official relationship, why is he so good? ” Chen Jiajia said somewhat shyly.

Chen's Mother still frowned: ”I think if it's possible, it's best for you to tie the knot as soon as possible. After all, you are no longer young, so it's good for you to settle down as soon as possible.”

”Mom, it's still early. We've only been together for a short while.” Chen Jiajia said helplessly.

Chen's Mother was about to persuade her again when Chen Jiajia said: ”Mom, I know you're worried about me. Marriage is not that simple, I know what I'm doing.” It really wasn't time for her to talk about marriage.

Chen's Mother sighed, then heaved a sigh of relief: ”I know you have had a mind of your own since you were young, now I do not have any other wishes, I just hope that you can remain safe and sound. I will not ask about these things, you can settle it yourselves.”

When Chen Jiajia heard his mother, a warm feeling flowed through her heart. She lifted her hand to add a shawl to Chen's Mother's clothes and instructed him, ”You've been worried about me, so pay attention to yourself. I've been listening to you coughing for the past two days.”

Chen's Mother said as he clasped his hands, ”It's just some minor ailments, don't worry.”

”You must wear more in normal times. If you're not feeling well, then let's hurry to the hospital. There's nothing more important than your health.” Chen Jiajia carefully warned.

The Chen's Mother listened happily, patting her hands and nodding.

The mother and daughter duo had returned to their hometown as they spoke. It was probably because he hadn't been here for nearly a year that the weeds in the yard had regenerated. Even the door was covered in a thick layer of dust.
