But humans were greedy beings. Watching the children grow up day by day, Miao Jing couldn't help but wish that she would be able to watch them enter primary school, middle school, high school, and even university.
If she lived longer, she might even get to see her great-grandchildren!
When Old Master Zhai had left, Zhai Sheng had already been thirty. If Zhai Sheng had married at a normal age, Old Master Zhai would definitely have been able to meet his great-grandchild before leaving. His great-grandchild would even have been of school-going age!
But at that time, they didn't even have an inkling of the whereabouts of that great-grandchild's mother, let alone having one of school-going age.
Old Master Zhai had left to meet Grandma Zhai with that regret.
Miao Jing, who was in poor health, was often heartbroken. She didn't even know if she would get a chance to see her grandchildren start primary school, let alone meet her great-grandchildren.
