章節 2218: Wish They Would Be Safe

At the mention of his deceased daughter, the old man's smile faded a lot. "Your mother was poor since she was young. It was your grandmother and me who mistreated her and let her die early."

"If you say that, Mom would be sad if she were still alive." Li Jinnian pursed his lips and looked at the old man calmly. "Mom never thought that you and Grandma treated her badly. If not for the two of you protecting her, I might not exist in this world."

"Your mother was a sweetheart since she was a child." The old man's withered fingers gently caressed the photo of his daughter, who had been dead for almost 20 years. Tears already flickered in his eyes. "Your mother and uncle… suffered too much with us."

Li Jinnian raised his hand and gently wiped the tears from the old man's eyes. His grandfather and grandmother had gone through many sufferings, but they still contributed to the country without complaint. He admired them for that.
