Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1046: Chapter 1026: Grandma Going Berserk?

Old Master Luo silently walked over to Qhianqhian, reaching out to cover his granddaughter’s eyes. ”It’s all an illusion, all an illusion. This isn’t your grandma, just a mom who’s been upset by her son...”

”Grandpa, it seems like you might also have some responsibility for grandma being upset.” Qhianqhian closed her eyes, leaning against Old Master Luo, giggling. ”You ate so much, she might not let you eat any meat for the next year.”

She felt a bit guilty inside. So grandma knew she was secretly improving Old Master Luo’s meals...

She thought she had been quite discreet...

The remaining men were completely bewildered. What’s going on? Are they all part of the same family?

These old couple are the parents of the chief instructor?

And this little girl calls them grandpa and grandma?

So this little girl is either the chief instructor’s daughter or niece?

What on earth has he done to deserve this?

If he had known about this connection, why would he have tried to hide it?

And the truth is, the chief instructor’s cooking is really delicious...

”Mommy, mommy, I was wrong, I was wrong, I don’t dare anymore.” Luo Xiying listened to the conversation between the grandfather and granddaughter, almost moved to tears. They were making sarcastic comments instead of helping to appease things?

Are they all really blood-related?

”Ahem, grandma, I think uncle was probably just worried about grandpa. Look, it’s almost New Year’s, he probably just wanted to indulge grandpa a little so he could prepare for the vegetable dishes next year...” Under Old Master Luo’s care, even without looking at Yue Tingyu, Qhianqhian knew that in truth, though she was outwardly displeased, she deeply cared for the old man.

Otherwise, she would have stopped giving old Master delicious meals long ago.

But of course, health is more important, while those living outside still have opportunities to eat well.

But the old man truly has all his meals at home every day...

There really was no choice.

”Such a considerate granddaughter. Remember to make me some seafood for dinner, don’t just think of your dad.” Yue Tingyu let go, naturally walking over to Old Master Luo, patting his hand away, and led Qhianqhian out the door.

Walking along the road, Yue Tingyu cautiously observed Qhianqhian.

Qhianqhian turned her head, grinning at Yue Tingyu.

”Uh...” Yue Tingyu felt a bit awkward. She was afraid Qhianqhian would not be close to her after seeing such a fierce side of her.

But that little son was too infuriating, she couldn’t help herself.

”Grandma, you’re much more relatable now. I thought you never got angry, always smiling no matter what I did...” with a face full of sincerity.

Yue Tingyu was speechless. Who never gets angry? They just hold it in...

After all, she didn’t want to lay a hand on the third generation.

Back in the day, which of her four sons hadn’t gotten a beating from her?

Still, Old Master Luo hit too hard... She felt sorry, so she had to handle it herself.

After Luo Yanhai was born, the strict mother transformed into the loving grandmother.

”Are you really not afraid?” Yue Tingyu earnestly asked Qhianqhian to confirm.

Qhianqhian nodded, then smiled, with a bit of nostalgia on her face, taking Yue Tingyu’s arm and walking quietly down the road. ”In the past, our family didn’t have a dad. Mom had to be both gentle and strict, with my brother and me to care for, seeing a lot of sternness, realizing that a mother’s eyes only feigned hardness, but there’s not a mom who doesn’t love her children. Mom would always say, if you do this or that, I’ll break your legs, such threats. But my brother and I always knew mom just feared us taking the wrong path. With a mom like this, how couldn’t one understand a strict grandma? Even though grandma does it for grandpa’s health more than anything else, I totally get it. After all, for a couple to stay together for a lifetime, they are both a partner, whilst kids won’t be there forever.”

Listening to Qhianqhian’s words, Yue Tingyu was a bit dumbfounded. What was happening?

Why did she suddenly envision Qhianqhian’s mom’s life of hardship, living only for her two kids?

”So, grandma, do whatever makes you happy. I hope mom is happy, and I hope grandma is too.”

Yue Tingyu gently patted Qhianqhian’s arm, full of emotion on her face.

Indeed, compared to her, how much harder must it have been for Qhianqhian’s mom.

No matter what, back then, she never had to worry about making a living, and there was still someone, though rarely at home, who was present.

An Zilan had to earn money alone, raise two kids alone, and play the role of both father and mother.

She was aware of the remarriage back then.

She also clearly knew that if those two young ones hadn’t agreed, she would absolutely not have remarried, afraid of leaving a bad influence on the kids.

Moreover, everything gained now was achieved by Qhianqhian’s own effort.

From initially buying a house and opening a shop, to later enlisting in the army, taking college entrance exams, to subsequently starting a company, establishing the Nine Heavens Pavilion, Qhianqhian always had her own ideas.

And she never makes mistakes.

She’s proud to have such a granddaughter.

”I should be grateful to your mom.” Yue Tingyu looked at the blue sky, a smile forming on her lips.

The wrinkles on her face softened with gentleness.

Qhianqhian tilted her head. ”Exactly, without mom, there wouldn’t be such a cute me!” She wiggled her other arm, her face full of excitement.

Yue Tingyu burst into laughter, her worries vanishing in an instant.

An Zilan, thank you for bringing such outstanding children into the Luo Family...

Looking at the sky, Yue Tingyu’s face was full of tenderness.

”Actually, mom has her flaws too.” Qhianqhian whispered mysteriously, her face full of intrigue.

”Oh?” Yue Tingyu’s interest piqued, looking inquisitively at Qhianqhian.

With her worries eased, now her gossiping curiosity arose, after all, An Zilan had once been her daughter-in-law.

”Mom always reports happiness but hides her worries. She never confesses when something’s wrong, it always ends with me uncovering it...” Qhianqhian shrugged, full of helplessness, ”I guess, that’s just mom, huh?”

Not wanting the kids to worry, giving all her love to them.

Boundless love unspoken, a mother’s love heavier than Mount Tai.

”Isn’t it just to stop you from worrying? You’re still young, and to experience some things too early...”

Pausing here, Yue Tingyu’s mouth twitched and she fell silent.

What was there Qhianqhian feared experiencing?

Though the family would keep things from her to avoid her worrying, she wasn’t foolish.

She could always catch on.

And when Qhianqhian was once frail, she seemed like a leaf that could be blown away by the wind; as a grandmother, how could she not notice?

Especially since this child, her actions were often more worrisome than her brother, who had been missing for more than two years...

Looking at Qhianqhian trying to act mature, full of emotion.

How could she not feel sorry for this kind of Qhianqhian?

This is her granddaughter after all.
