Chapter 24: Chapter 24: Stupid Before

"Grandpa, Grandma, you shouldn't worry too much," Chiang Xiao sighed lightly and said, "I nearly died after falling into Nameless Creek this time, but suddenly I've come to understand a lot. I know what I should do and what I shouldn't do, and I have a sense of measure in my heart, so you don't need to worry about me."

In the past, Chiang Xiao held some grudges toward her grandparents, grudges buried so deep she might not have been aware of them herself.

Being a child born to a mother who was unmarried and pregnant and having no idea who her father was, she had been accustomed to being hurt by village gossip; subconsciously, she felt her grandparents were to blame for not teaching her mother well or taking good care of her. How else could they have allowed her mother to commit such a scandalous act in that era?

Moreover, they even allowed her mother to run away afterward.
