Chapter 29: Because I've Grown Up
"It's been four years, it's been four years...... the old lady muttered, her eyes circled around and then returned to Chen Aiqing, and suddenly she seemed to have discovered something, and stroked Chen Aiqing's face with her hand, "Yun'er, why do you look different from when you were a child?" ”
Chen Aiqing took the old lady's hand off his face and covered it with both hands: "Of course it's different from when I was a child, because I've grown up." ”
The old lady tilted her head to one side, and then to the other, tilting back and forth, as if she were carefully observing something.
Suddenly, she smiled "hey, hey, hey": "Grow up well, grow up and become beautiful, my Yun'er has become beautiful......"
Chen Aiqing laughed with her, seeing that she didn't mean to reject herself at all, so she stood up and carefully helped the old lady up: "Grandma, it's cold outside, let's go home, okay?" ”
The old lady nodded obediently, and then clapped her hands like a child while laughing: "Okay, okay, let's go home, grandma and Yun'er go home......"
……
Finally coaxed the old lady to sleep, Chen Aiqing carefully left the room.
Closing the door, she took out her phone, and after tapping on the screen a few times, she looked up at the middle-aged woman who had been guarding the door.
The middle-aged woman, surnamed Wang, took care of the old lady 24 hours a day for three years.
Chen Aiqing: "Aunt Wang, this month's nursing fee, I transferred it to you on WeChat, remember to collect it." ”
Aunt Wang clicked on WeChat and saw the number of the transfer, and was stunned: "This, Miss Chen, this is 500 yuan more than before." ”
Seeing that it was very late, Chen Aiqing walked to the entrance and said while changing his shoes: "Yes, I may be busy next, so I shouldn't have much time to come, so please take care of grandma a little more." ”
Aunt Wang: "What you said is just a foreign talk, since I have done this job, I naturally have to do my best, but today I ......"
As she spoke, Aunt Wang had an embarrassed and sorry expression on her face.
"Grandma must have seen those paintings, that's why she thought of Cheng Yun," Chen Aiqing's eyes fell on a few paintings on the old-fashioned coffee table in the living room, "I remember Cheng Yun said before that grandma likes to accompany her to paint the ...... the most."
After a pause, she said, "Why don't you put those paintings away, lest your grandmother see them later and be confused again." ”
Aunt Wang turned her head and glanced at it: "Okay, I'll put it away in a while......"
Seeing that Chen Aiqing opened the door and was about to leave, Aunt Wang hurriedly called out to her: "Miss Chen." ”
"Is there anything else?"
Aunt Wang: "Actually, I've always wanted to ask you, the old lady is not your biological grandmother, why are you so good to her?" ”
It's so good that it's even better than the biological one.
Of course, in addition to this, Aunt Wang still has questions in her heart.
I have been a caregiver in this family for three years, and I have chatted with this beautiful and polite girl during this time.
She has talked about work, life, and even some strange things, she has said, but she has never talked about her parents and her childhood.
Once I asked inadvertently, and she just smiled and said, "My mother died," and never talked about it again.
Aunt Wang is a person with good eyesight, and she understands that she doesn't want to mention more, so she didn't ask again.
I don't know what's wrong, but today I saw her anxious look after learning that the old lady was gone, as if the sky was falling, and she naturally said it.
