Chapter 128 Tian Tian's Grandpa is Here

When Yao Shula heard Zhou Ping'an say that Tian Tian's grandfather was coming along, she immediately understood what was going on.

Little Tiantian suffered such a great injustice, how could his grandfather, who loves him the most, possibly stand idly by!

The fact that Xiaotian cried so much that she fainted and had to go to Shanghai to find medicine shows that this is not a big deal!

Therefore, Tian Tian's grandfather must have come to avenge Tian Tian.

"What else did Lei Jingwu say?" Yao Shula asked with a smile.

"He also told you not to be nervous, just treat Xiaotian the same way you usually treat her," Zhou Ping'an added with a smile.

How could Yao Shula not understand Lei Jingwu's meaning? This was a advance notice, to let her prepare!

"Okay, I got it, thank you, Brother Ping An!" Yao Shula smiled at Zhou Ping An.

Zhou Pingan chuckled, glanced at the courtyard, waved, and climbed down from the wall.

For the next few days, Yao Shula continued as before.

Things were done as usual; there was no special treatment given to Tian Tian just because his grandfather was coming.

It's almost the end of June, and the weather is getting hotter.

Yao Shuxin has already started previewing her lessons with her first-year high school textbooks.

As for the title of top scorer in the high school entrance exam...

"Sis, that's all in the past! I'm going to start all over again."

Miao Yamin also came over almost every day to watch Yao Shuxin study and helped Yao Shuli review his lessons.

Yao Shuli dared not complain and could only listen obediently to Miao Yamin's lecture.

...

After finishing her morning tasks and setting up her recreation ball stall, Yao Shula took Xiao Tiantian to the market to buy groceries.

Yao Shula carried a bamboo basket on her left arm and held Xiao Tiantian's little hand in her right.

Xiao Tiantian's left hand was being held by Yao Shula's hand, while her right hand was holding a small bamboo basket.

This was made by a relative in the countryside that Grandma Yao asked to make some time ago.

Grandma Yao had ten bamboo baskets woven. She kept four for herself, gave two to Aunt Yao's family, and gave two to Yao Chunian's family.

The remaining two, one large and one small, were delivered to Yao Shula by Zhong Xiaochun.

Yao Shula used it as a shopping basket.

Little Tiantian took a liking to the smaller one at first sight and carried it with her to go grocery shopping with Yao Shula every day.

Yao Shula is happy to go grocery shopping with Xiao Tiantian every day.

She also prepared a thin rope, tying one end to her right wrist and the other end to Xiaotian's left wrist to prevent Xiaotian from running around.

Yao Shula plans to make dumplings with chives and pork filling today. Yesterday afternoon, she had already told Director Wang that she wanted three catties of pork leg meat to make dumplings.

Little Tiantian was overjoyed when she heard that they were going to eat dumplings.

He loves the dumplings Yao Shula makes; they're not too fatty or too lean, and they're wrapped with fresh chives. One bite and your mouth is filled with their delicious flavor.

"Big sister, we'll have dumplings for dinner, and the rest can be fried in oil for breakfast tomorrow," Xiao Tiantian said to Yao Shula, looking up at her.

"Okay, make a lot more tonight. My cousin is here too, let's eat dumplings together. If we can't finish them, we can fry them in oil for you to eat tomorrow morning." Yao Shula smiled and pinched Xiao Tiantian's nose.

Little Tiantian jumped for joy.

He likes to eat dumplings, whether they are boiled, steamed, or fried.

Of course, my favorite is still pan-fried. Pan-fried dumplings have golden-brown, crispy skins that taste so delicious.

"Big sister, I love dumplings and I also love wontons."

"I love anything you make!" Xiao Tiantian said, tilting her head back.

Yao Shula nodded and continued walking forward, holding Xiao Tiantian's hand.

Unbeknownst to her, a pair of eyes were constantly watching her and Xiao Tiantian...

...

"Grandpa, that's Yao Shula. Am I right? She's so good to Tiantian. She was the one who picked Tiantian up and brought her home when she ran away."

It's late at night, and there's nobody at the police station. If it weren't for Yao Shula, I don't know how much more suffering I'd have to endure every day!

Lei Jingwu, sitting in the car, spoke quietly to an elderly man with white hair in the back seat.

The white-haired old man was none other than Grandpa Lei, Tiantian's grandfather.

After receiving Secretary Lei's call that day, Old Master Lei knew that something must have happened.

Later, based on Xiao Tiantian's tone of voice, Grandpa Lei basically concluded that Xiao Tiantian had suffered a great injustice.

Lei Jingwu stopped Old Master Lei, who originally wanted to have someone send him over the next day.

"Grandpa, with Yao Shula around, Tiantian will be fine."

Now that you've gone there, you'll definitely remember this matter even more clearly every day.

Let Yao Shula take care of Tiantian for a few more days, maybe Tiantian will forget about this soon!

"In a couple of days, I will definitely take you to Yun County."

When Grandpa Lei heard this, he thought it made sense, and it took him a few days to recover.

After arriving in Yun County with Lei Jingwu, Grandpa Lei didn't go directly to Yao Shula's house to see Xiao Tiantian. Instead, he secretly followed Yao Shula and Xiao Tiantian...

"Grandpa, you can rest assured now!"

I think it's best to let Tiantian attend primary school in Yun County!

At least it's easier to be here every day than anywhere else.

"We'll bring Tiantian back to Shanghai to attend school when he's a bit older," Lei Jingwu continued.

Grandpa Lei remained silent, lost in thought about the scenes he had just witnessed.

Yao Shula walked and laughed with her seven-year-old son, Tiantian, by the hand. Tiantian talked to Yao Shula almost the entire way.

Yao Shula also occasionally looked down and talked to Xiao Tiantian.

Both Yao Shula and Xiao Tiantian had smiles on their faces.

Yao Shula showed no sign of impatience.

Grandpa Lei could tell that this was probably how the two of them usually acted.

Thinking of this, Grandpa Lei felt a pang of sadness.

His little Tiantian...

When will I be able to smile so happily at my grandfather?

Grandpa Lei watched as Yao Shula took Xiaotian to buy meat and other things from the supply and marketing cooperative next door that sold general merchandise.

Little Tiantian was even munching on a piece of rice candy.

"If you eat this, you can't eat candy today!" Yao Shula reminded Xiao Tiantian.

Xiao Tiantian nodded as she tried to reach out and stuff the rice candy in her hand into Yao Shula's mouth.

"Big sister, I know, you should have a bite too!"

"My older sister doesn't like this!"

"Come on, let's go over there and take a look. There should be some country folk coming to town to sell eggs. Let's buy a few more, so you can have a stewed egg every morning from now on."

As she spoke, Yao Shula pulled Xiao Tiantian into the alley behind the supply and marketing cooperative.

Xiao Tiantian hurriedly held Yao Shula's hand tightly.

As Yao Shula walked, she didn't forget to take out a handkerchief to wipe Xiao Tiantian's mouth.

Grandpa Lei also noticed that Xiao Tiantian was dressed neatly, and was wearing what appeared to be newly made cloth shoes.

...

Grandpa Lei watched for a long time, until the siblings were out of sight, before turning to Lei Jingwu beside him.

"From now on, any items sent from Shanghai will be delivered directly to Yao Shula's home."

“Okay, I’ll make the arrangements!” Lei Jingwu quickly agreed.

"Your third uncle didn't know I was coming, did he?" Old Master Lei suddenly asked.

"I don't know! I didn't tell my third uncle, but he probably didn't go to the countryside today; he has a meeting in the county!" Lei Jingwu hurriedly said.

"Let's go! Let's go see your third uncle's house!" After saying that, Grandpa Lei leaned back in the car, his expression no longer as agitated as before.

Lei Jingwu said "Oh," and quickly signaled the driver to head towards the county committee's residential compound.

Some people are having a tough time today...
