Three Towers Game

Chapter 204: Chapter 95: 5 Hearts_5

”My eyes don’t feel the sting, but at the same time, I saw the light, and the restlessness in my heart gradually disappeared.”

”I started to become normal again, and all of this was because of Ding Dong.”

Wen Xishu asked again:

”Think carefully, before he made this lamp, was there any other problem?”

Mo Yuan frowned slightly:

”Other? Ah... It seems that there was. Yes, he asked me if, after continuously experiencing failed relationships, I would still long for love?”

Wen Xishu said:

”What did you say?”

Mo Yuan smiled:

”Of course, I did. When I was a child, Granny was the best person to me. I believed I could find the kind of person who could accompany me for a lifetime as Granny described. I just... for a while, I doubted myself, but I never doubted that there are people in this world worthy of love. If I met one, I wouldn’t be timid.”

Mo Yuan’s smile didn’t last long. Thinking of Ding Dong, her expression became visibly dispirited.

Wen Xishu said:

”And Ding Dong’s response?”

Mo Yuan realized that Wen Xishu might have thought of something, and she became serious:

”Ding Dong just said thank you... said he envied me for having a heart like that.”

Wen Xishu nodded, understanding something in his heart.

”Granny Wu, what about you?”

The radio in Room 4-8 brought new sound at this moment:

”The plane is no longer a plane, but indeed, it is the plane that changed the trajectory of fate. His current worry is longing for the truth of the story.”

Granny Wu said:

”Oh, me? I don’t have much of a story... I’m just someone who feels empty inside and always wants to do something for others.”

...

...

Granny Wu’s story really isn’t much of a story. When Granny Wu was young, she helped many people, taught many children. Since she learned some medical skills when she was young, it also made Granny Wu a well-known figure in the town.

She wasn’t a teacher, but because she grew up following her father, memorizing prescriptions, and recognizing words, she also taught the children in the town to read and write. She also helped with minor ailments in the town’s families.

In everyone’s opinion, Granny Wu was a warm-hearted person.

After getting married, Granny Wu focused on her children, who were all very smart. Granny Wu’s husband was the principal of an elementary school at the time.

They should have had a happy family, but Granny Wu’s husband was wrongfully imprisoned. This caused Granny Wu’s family life to start to fall apart.

Everyone that Granny Wu had helped began to stay away from her, fearing to suffer the same injustice. They knew Granny Wu’s character, but no one spoke up for her.

Granny Wu’s three children, two died of illness, and the eldest daughter later married far away, avoiding the place like a plague.

Later, Granny Wu’s family’s unjust case was finally overturned, and she was cleared. But her husband had already passed away.

Relying on her own abilities, Granny Wu was self-reliant and never complained about her past. In the new environment, Granny Wu remained warm-hearted, her kindness unaltered. Through long-term thriftiness, Granny Wu saved up some money and opened a small shop near a school.

She liked the school environment. Every era has its absurdities, every person faces setbacks, but she didn’t resent the difficulties that came with knowledge.

Many people around had received Granny Wu’s care, and naturally, they were willing to support her business. Slowly, Granny Wu’s days became better.

But the old woman’s hardships didn’t end. Years later, the internet era brought everyone closer.

Granny Wu never expected... her eldest daughter to hate her so much.

The eldest daughter’s marriage was unhappy. In those days, marrying far away was a gamble, and she lost.

But she blamed all her resentment on her mother, because her father was already gone.

Years later, she started to feel sentimental, thinking about how difficult the years had been, believing she should have had a good husband and family, but those were out of reach because of her mother.

When she found out that her mother was still living well, even saving some money in that dire situation, she began accusing Granny Wu, fabricating stories about the past.

Granny Wu recounted this with a bitter smile:

”I do owe her, so I left some money for her. The rest, I donated to a school where my husband once taught. I wanted to be closer to him.”

”But my daughter was very angry. In her fabricated story, I was the one who reported my husband... I betrayed him.”

”People around didn’t know the truth, and naturally, some believed me, but many started to gossip about me.”

”People would say, what kind of grievances would make a child treat their mother like this?”

”But I... really had no choice.”

This world has many parents who don’t know how to be parents, and Tang Rui’s story is not an exception. But there are also many children who can’t understand their parents’ difficulties.

Granny Wu said:

”After that incident, I was somewhat traumatized. My daughter made me very sad. I felt like I always heard people accusing me...”

”To calm their accusations, I thought of helping them. I heard someone saying they had a headache, so I wanted to check their pulse.”
