Chapter 710 There is a kind of love called letting go
How to face death is actually a topic that every child needs to learn.
Grandpa used kind and gentle lies to gently soothe the fear deep in Chenchen's heart.
But at this time, Chenchen didn't know or realize that this was actually the beginning of his grandfather's farewell to him.
Of course, grandpa couldn't let go of his little grandson or Chenchen, but he knew that day would come sooner or later.
Therefore, grandpa made preparations for his departure in advance. He used the white lie in the reply from heaven to hope that one day he would leave and his beloved grandson Chenchen would not be so sad.
My mother is coming back from abroad. Although Chenchen has forgotten what her mother looks like, she still puts on new clothes and looks handsome and picks her up at the airport.
When the mother saw her son whom she had not seen for a long time, she was very excited and her eyes immediately turned red.
But Chenchen felt strange. Grandpa urged Chenchen to call her mother, but Chenchen hesitated.
Mom came up to hug Chenchen, but Chenchen shyly hid behind her grandfather.
But she is always connected by blood to her biological mother, so Chenchen still lets her mother hold her hand.
Along the way, mother held Chenchen's hand and walked in front, while grandpa followed slowly behind.
Chenchen turned around and called Grandpa from time to time, but Grandpa waved his hand and told him to go quickly, go quickly.
Mother hugged Chenchen and got into the car first. She looked at Chenchen eagerly and said, "Come on, Chenchen, let mother take a good look. The little baby has grown so big."
But Chenchen was still thinking about grandpa: "Grandpa hasn't gotten in the car yet."
At this time, grandpa also got in the car.
Mom hugged Chenchen and kissed her non-stop. Chenchen asked her if she was still going to Belgium?
Mom pinched Chenchen's little nose and said, "I'm not going."
"Why?" Chenchen asked.
"For this little thing like you. Only a few months after Chenchen was born, your mother left you to your grandfather because you were going abroad. How pitiful." Her mother said distressedly.
As a result, Chenchen retorted: "I'm not pitiful, my grandpa is in charge."
"How can it be the same?" Mom replied.
Grandpa looked at the reunion scene of mother and son. There was indescribable complexity in his eyes, a mixture of reluctance and relief.
The reason for reluctance is that I can't let go of my little walking stick grandson. The reason for peace of mind is that Chenchen's mother is back, so even if one day he leaves, there is no need to worry about Chenchen anymore.
Grandpa sat silently in the front seat of the car, listening to the cheerful laughter of mother and son from behind.
The taxi drove slowly home.
Mom brought many toys to Chenchen, and he had a great time playing with them. It seems that children are always easily satisfied. These toys instantly brought the mother and son closer together.
Chenchen also drew a picture of her mother and placed it on the bedside. After her mother saw it, she couldn't help but be happy.
In order for Chenchen and her mother to develop a relationship as quickly as possible, grandpa specially arranged for Chenchen and her mother to sleep together at night.
Chenchen listened to his grandfather's words the most, so although he was still a little shy, he still brought the guinea pig over to sleep with his mother.
Of course, my mother was very happy. She stepped forward to hug Chenchen and gave her a kiss.
But when her mother saw the guinea pig held in Chenchen's hand, her expression suddenly changed.
Grandpa froze when he saw the scene. Seeing Chenchen's expression of confusion, he quickly took the guinea pig's cage and said to Chenchen: "Chenchen, look, you and your mother will sleep together tonight. Where is grandpa?"
Alone, how about letting this old friend accompany grandpa?"
Chenchen nodded vigorously, yes, usually Chenchen accompanies grandpa, but tonight Chenchen has to accompany her mother. Grandpa is so lonely, so let the guinea pig accompany grandpa.
After all, they are mother and son. Of course mom loves Chenchen, and Chenchen is willing to kiss her.
The mother and son's room was filled with laughter and laughter.
Grandpa carried the guinea pig back to his room, listening to the laughter coming from next door, but he sat in the dark, dejected and dazed for a long time.
Chenchen told her mother about accompanying her grandfather to deliver a letter.
"Mom, do you know? Grandpa is awesome. He sent the letter to heaven with a kite in no time."
He does not mean that.
The smile on her mother's face suddenly froze. Her eyes drifted to the direction of grandpa's room. She reached out and touched Chenchen's head, but didn't say anything.
Chenchen did not notice the change in her mother, but continued to say proudly: "Mom, Chenchen is great, I ride a tricycle to send grandpa to kindergarten every day."
After hearing this, my mother was stunned and asked: "Ah? What? You sent grandpa to kindergarten?"
Chenchen said shyly: "That's wrong, I sent myself to the kindergarten!"
Chenchen is sleepy and wants to sleep.
He was used to touching his grandfather's ears every night when he went to bed. At night when he slept with his mother, he was also used to reaching out and touching his mother's ears.
But my mother took my hand away several times.
Chenchen turned over angrily and turned his back to his mother. He missed his grandpa.
It is very difficult for a mother and son who have never lived together to become intimate without any barriers.
Mom has her mother's habits, and Chenchen has her own habits...
The guinea pig is one, and touching the ears in the morning before going to bed is one.
Early the next morning, grandpa was cooking. Chenchen came into the room with a glass of milk and said to his mother: "Grandpa said, let mom sleep a little longer. Grandpa said, let you get rid of the jet lag. Grandpa said, let you drink this first."
A glass of milk...Grandpa said, we’ll have dinner soon!”
Chenchen's cute and well-behaved little appearance made her mother's heart melt. She took the milk with a smile on her face.
Before Chenchen walked out, she turned around and said quietly: "Grandpa cooked a lot of delicious dishes."
It’s just that in every word he said, there was something about grandpa, grandpa, and grandpa and grandson who have been dependent on each other for so long, and their feelings are indescribable.
In the theater, a movie fan who once lived with his grandfather was immediately blinded by the wind and sand.
The tacit understanding between Chenchen and her grandfather is not comparable to that of her mother.
At breakfast time, Chenchen brought a pair of guinea pigs to the dining table as usual, and her mother immediately frowned again.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! She asked Chenchen to quickly take down the guinea pig, but Chenchen stretched out his hand and gestured to retort: "I have been with us every day since I was so young and raised to this big.
Let’s eat!”
As she spoke, Chenchen picked up a piece of cucumber and fed it to the guinea pig: "Old friend, eat it, it's delicious."
Mom's face suddenly became very ugly.
Grandpa happened to come over with soup at this time. He was afraid that Chenchen's mother would be angry, so he quickly took the guinea pig away. However, Chenchen still didn't forget it. While eating, he lowered his head to feed the guinea pig.
Mom endured it for the time being.
But soon my mother frowned again.
Because she saw Chenchen licking the bottom of the bowl with her tongue after eating, she couldn't help but said: "Chenchen, you are not a puppy, why did you lick it with your tongue?"
As a result, Chenchen retorted: "Grandpa is not a puppy, so why does he lick it with his tongue?"
Grandpa was extremely embarrassed after hearing this, so he could only smile and change the subject.
"Chenchen, let's finish eating. Let's go out and play."
Liu Fei couldn't help but smile from ear to ear when he saw this scene, but his eyes were filled with tears.
Chen Jingning squeezed her husband's hand, and Liu Fei whispered: "I was like this when I was a child, because my grandfather said not to waste it."
On the big screen, the plot continues.
When mom comes back, grandpa will of course take mom to the kindergarten where she will get to know Chenchen, and he will also take mom to pick up Chenchen.
After school, many children shouted for their mothers as soon as they went out, and then threw themselves into their mothers' arms.
Chenchen's mother saw it and was filled with envy. She was also looking forward to Chenchen coming out, calling her mother, and then coming over to hug her.
But after Chenchen came out, the first thing she shouted was: "Grandpa, Grandpa!"
Mom opened her hands and shouted: "Chenchen!" She wanted to hug him, but Chenchen turned a blind eye and walked towards grandpa out of habit.
This made my mother sad and embarrassed.
Chenchen excitedly reported to her grandfather about her performance in kindergarten today. While her grandfather was hugging Chenchen and praising her, he caught sight of Chenchen’s mother from the corner of his eye.
The smile on his face could not help but freeze.
He knew that Chenchen would not be able to fully accept his mother for a while.
In order to shorten the distance between herself and Chenchen, her mother specially took Chenchen to play in the Ice Sculpture Park.
As a result, Chenchen said: "Mom, it would be more fun if grandpa was here."
Chenchen was still confused: "Mom, why don't you bring grandpa?"
Mom had no choice but to explain: "Mom needs to have some alone time with you!"
When taking pictures, my mother said that Chenchen is my most beloved person.
But Chenchen retorted: "That's not true. Last time you called your father, you said that he is your most beloved person."
Mom could only look embarrassed.
In fact, this also illustrates that many times, what parents say inadvertently is actually taken very, very seriously by their children.
Mom told Chenchen that she would send him to learn piano and foreign languages starting next year, and he would learn many useful things. Chenchen instinctively resisted.
Especially when her mother disliked the guinea pigs raised at home because they were dirty and smelly, and asked him to throw them away, Chenchen angrily threw away her mother's hand and ran away.
The differences and estrangements in life between mother, grandfather and grandson cannot be synchronized in a short time.
Chenchen was sitting in the back seat of grandpa's tricycle, but Chenchen, who was usually active, talkative and funny, seemed particularly quiet today.
Grandpa saw that Chenchen was worried about something, so he took the initiative to talk to her. Chenchen asked grandpa: "Grandpa, do you have a mother?"
Grandpa nodded and said: "Of course, everyone has a mother."
Chenchen asked again: "How is your mother?"
Grandpa replied: "My mother is as good as your mother."
Chenchen asked again: "Then...does your mother like small animals?"
Grandpa replied: "Yes, my mother likes small animals very much!"
"Then why doesn't my mother like our guinea pigs?"
Obviously Chenchen also wants to kiss her mother, but she doesn't understand why her mother doesn't like guinea pigs.
In fact, it’s not just guinea pigs, there are many, many other aspects.
Grandpa didn't know how to answer this question, so he could only say: "These are two different things!"
When the two returned to the downstairs of their home, Chenchen saw that their toys were thrown outside as garbage.
When they opened the door again, the grandfather and grandson faced a home that had been completely changed, with completely new furniture and furnishings. Chenchen thought they had entered the wrong door.
As soon as the two of them were about to enter, they heard their mother calling them from inside to change into slippers.
The grandfather and grandson stretched out their legs at the same time and retracted them at the same time. The scene was so hilarious.
After entering the door, grandpa carefully followed the instructions, hanging clothes, hats, and scarves. This new lifestyle made grandpa very uncomfortable.
But Chenchen was searching the whole house for his old friend the guinea pig.
But no matter how hard I look, I can't find my old friend the guinea pig. Thinking of my mother throwing away all his old toys as rubbish, and my mother also asked him to throw away the guinea pig before, will he really throw away the guinea pig?
Thinking of this, Chenchen became completely upset. He sat on the ground crying and fussing.
The crying sound immediately startled my mother who was on the balcony. My mother was about to tell Chenchen that the guinea pigs were on the balcony, but who knew that she accidentally waved her hand and touched the cage of the guinea pigs on the balcony?
The pig immediately fell down.
The guinea pig fell from the building and bled immediately.
Chenchen ran down crying and saw the miserable condition of his "old friend". He squatted down and cried loudly and sadly: "Guinea Pig, my old friend!"
Grandpa and mother chased him down. Seeing Chenchen's sad look, neither of them knew how to comfort him.
Chenchen blamed his mother for the death of the guinea pig. He ran to her and said, "You are so cruel, you are a bad mother!"
Mom apologized quickly, she didn't mean it, but when Chenchen heard her apology, she cried even harder.
Chenchen stepped forward and gestured with her hands, while questioning: "You are so cruel. We have been raised from such a young age to such an old age, and you are a bad mother!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The first real farewell experience, even though it was just two guinea pigs, still made Chenchen feel the pain.
Chenchen and her friend Linlin built a grave for their old friend the guinea pig, and together they remembered their old friend the guinea pig.
And after the pain, there is silence.
During the meal, he began to carry the empty cage without the guinea pig to the table.
Without saying a word, he fed the air with bread crumbs and said to the empty cage: "Old friend, eat it, it's delicious!"
Grandpa looked at Chenchen's depressed appearance after the death of his "old friend" the guinea pig, and felt very unhappy. Maybe he thought that one day he would leave too, and how sad Chenchen would be at that time. He couldn't help but frown.
With a sad look on his face, he didn't know how to make Chenchen not so sad.
On the other side, the mother looked at Chenchen's heartbroken look and blamed herself in her heart. Only then did she realize that in the eyes of her children, a small animal is such an important friend and partner.
She imitated Chenchen with the bread and handed it to the empty cage: "Old friend, I didn't mean it!"
Chenchen looked at his mother who looked guilty and knew that her mother really didn't mean it. The death of his old friend was just an accident. He finally chose to forgive his mother.
After all, they are mother and son. Although they are temporarily estranged, how can mother and son really be strangers?
In fact, at first, the audience in the theater did not have a good impression of my mother. After all, Chenchen and her grandfather got along so harmoniously, one old and one young.
Grandpa is like an old child, playing children's games with Chenchen, but Chenchen is like a little adult, always helping grandpa warmly, reminding grandpa to take medicine, and accompanying grandpa to deliver letters.
But the appearance of mother broke this warm scene.
But at this moment, everyone was relieved. Yes, is mom really as bad as Chenchen said when she was angry?
She actually wanted to get along well with Chenchen. Even though she disliked the guinea pig so much, she never thought about really getting rid of the guinea pig.
Everything was just an accident. Of course she loved Chenchen.
Therefore, Chenchen also chose to forgive her mother.
In the coldest month of winter, Chenchen and grandpa were skating on the frozen lake, laughing and feeling very comfortable.
New Year's Eve arrived soon.
Chenchen was playing chess with her grandfather. Her mother changed her clothes and wanted to take Chenchen to a friend's house for dinner with a happy face. However, Chenchen insisted on going with her grandfather and refused to change clothes.
Mom, who was chasing after her with clothes, was aroused by Chenchen's disobedience, and her attitude became tougher.
"are you going?"
But Chenchen hugged her grandfather and said loudly: "I just won't go!"
Seeing the mother and son having an argument again.
However, the grandfather still felt sorry for his grandson and was not willing to force him too much, so he persuaded him in a low and friendly voice: "If he doesn't want to go, let him follow me!"
Who knew that this would actually increase her mother's anger. She threw her clothes on the sofa with all her strength. Chenchen's long-term lack of cooperation, dependence on grandpa, and resistance to her mother made her mother's long-term accumulated anger completely explode.
: "Whether you want to go or not! I'm so used to it!"
Looking at Chenchen's mother slamming the door and leaving, Grandpa sighed secretly in his heart.
When I returned home in the evening, I lay on the bed in the morning and sang a little song: "Sit in rows and eat fruit, one for you and one for me. Grandpa is too fat, so leave one for him."
But when grandpa was carrying the basin to wash up, he heard the suppressed crying of his daughter-in-law, Chenchen's mother.
He understood that his presence would make Chenchen dependent and make him unwilling to accept his mother. Maybe it was time for him to leave.
Although he was extremely reluctant to leave, Grandpa knew that sooner or later, one day, he would leave Chenchen forever.
He must be cruel and let Chenchen adapt to life without him.
So the grandfather called his daughter-in-law and sat facing each other.
Grandpa said: "I want to move back to my old house."
Chenchen's mother quickly said: "How can that be done? I came back just to take care of you two."
Grandpa nodded: "I know, I know this, listen to me..."
Grandpa found many excuses.
What about the good air, old friends, etc.
At this time, Chenchen was talking in her sleep, and grandpa quickly went in to comfort her.
When they came out, Chenchen's mother said: "Look at Chenchen, he can't live without you."
Grandpa nodded and said: "Yes, to be honest, I can't live without him. Chenchen is the one I looked up to when I was little. I don't even take care of his father like this. It's strange. No matter what happens to me,
Son, as soon as I see him, I will..."
Grandpa couldn't help but tears overflowing his eyes.
He really couldn't bear it!
He wiped his tears and continued: "Chenchen is a good boy. I have led him a little willfully in the past two years. Don't blame him. It was me who doted on him."
"You are his mother. When you come back, of course you should hand him over to you. Think about it, how many more years can I live at such an old age?"
Chenchen's mother also had tears in her eyes after hearing this.
Grandpa added: "Of course the child will stay with his mother. It's good for the child if I leave. I just ask you to be more patient. Chenchen still likes you as a mother."
Grandpa understands that no matter how reluctant he is, he can't stay with him forever.
He couldn't bear it, but he had to, because if he was gone and Chenchen still bumped into his mother like this and couldn't accept it, what should he do? So he could only bear the pain and leave.
