On this day, Zhang Ni slipped out from his ho alone to play. When he accidentally fell on the street, he didn’t expect to bump right into Xia Jing. Believing that the sight of the little boy tumbling to the ground tugged at her heartstrings, she quickly walked over and helped the boy up, only to realize that the person in front of her was actually her own grandson.
"Little friend, why are you here all by yourself? Don’t you know it’s very dangerous to play outside alone?"
"Thank you. I fell here by accident, and thank you for helping up. There really are many kind-hearted people in this world. You’re about as old as my grandma. Oh, if only my grandma could have helped up like this, how wonderful that would be?"
"Little friend, isn’t your grandma here? Where did she go? Why isn’t she by your side?"
"I don’t know where my grandma is. From the ti I was born until now, she has never accompanied . I’ve never even seen my grandma, and I don’t know where her photo is. Sotis, you know? I’m particularly envious of the kids who have the company of their grandparents. But as for , my grandparents have never appeared. When I really miss them, I wonder where my grandparents are and why they don’t want to be by my side. I only wish my grandparents could be like the other kids’ grandparents—safe and sound by my side, even just for once. But this wish seems very difficult in my family. My grandparents never cared about my dad and mom, nor about my great-grandfather, let alone , their grandson! Do you think it’s because I’m not cute enough that my grandma doesn’t want to see ? Actually, I’ve looked in the mirror, and I don’t think I’m that ugly. My dad is handsor than , but why do my grandparents still refuse to co back? I wish so much that they would co back to accompany , but this wish is really, really hard for us. My parents have begged my grandparents many tis, but they just refuse to return to this family. Is it because the atmosphere in our ho is not good, so they dislike everyone here? I’m willing to co back ho and live with us. But I think our ho is really happy, with my dad, my mom, and my great-grandfather. A family could be happily living together, so why insist on staying away and not wanting to co ho? Is it really that bad to live together with one’s own family? I can’t understand why my grandparents would abandon . Sotis I just want to prove to the whole world that I’m the best person in the world. I want to make my grandparents realize what a big mistake they made by abandoning , by not wanting to be by my side. I want to make my grandparents understand that everything can be abandoned, but familial love cannot. Familial love is sothing that no amount of money in the world can buy. I also hope that one day my grandparents will understand this truth!"
"I never expected such a young child to understand so much truth. If your grandparents knew how open-minded you are, how hard you work, they would definitely regret having abandoned you. You must keep trying hard, make it known to your grandparents sooner that you’re such an outstanding child!"
Xia Jing didn’t know that this little boy in front of her was her own grandson, and the grandparents he spoke of were herself. She hadn’t expected that when she finally recognized her grandson, it would be with such a little boy. In that mont, they were both stunned, never expecting fate to be so strange, that a chance encounter could lead them to recognize each other for the first ti. But it was also the first ti she understood what kind of person she was in her grandson’s heart, what kind of emotional pain she had caused?
"Child, then how are you and your grandparents?"
"To tell you the truth, I don’t want you to laugh at , but I kind of hate my grandparents. I don’t understand what kind of reason it could be that would make them give up on our family. I really want to know what I, their grandson, an to them in their hearts. I wish I could have seen them the day I was born, but I didn’t. I also wish I could have their companionship on the journey of growing up, but they have never been there. It really hurts . I have thought about hating them, but my parents told to never hate my grandparents. They say my grandparents have their own helpless difficulties. My parents have tried to persuade ti and again, but it’s always a little hard for to accept internally. I’m a child too; I also hope to be loved and cherished by more people. Sotis I see my school friends; they have the company of their grandparents but not their parents. I’m lucky to have my parents’ company. I wish I could be less selfish. I hope to have the love and care of both my grandparents and my parents. Maybe it’s too much to ask for, but whose heart doesn’t yearn for sothing? Is my wish really so impossible to fulfill, so unforgivable? All I really want is for my grandparents to co back to see , even just once. That would satisfy . But they have never co back, maybe they’ve long since erased from their hearts, or maybe they never wanted to co into this world from the start. I hate my grandparents, but I can’t make things difficult for my mom and dad. I have to restrain the hatred in my heart for my grandparents, and still smile cheerfully at my mom and dad. My heart is truly hurting, but I can’t express it to them again, because I know my parents love dearly. I also know my parents hope I can face the world with a sound and objective mindset, not to resent anyone. I know my parents do this for my sake, but my heart still can’t help wanting to hate my grandparents!"
Xia Jing, hearing her grandson speak such words, felt her heart clench in pain, yet she was helpless!
