"I understand."
After Qiao Nian and Su Yan finished speaking, she was about to hang up when Matriarch Gu’s loving voice came through the phone again.
"Is that Nian Nian? I want to say a few words to her."
Matriarch Gu’s words were filled with longing for Qiao Nian.
Qiao Nian recalled that when Matriarch Gu had made a gown for her, she had tried it on. At that time, Matriarch Gu’s eyes had lit up.
Ever since she walked out of the mental hospital, the first person to treat her well was Matriarch Gu. She had experienced the warmth of family from Matriarch Gu.
At the thought of this, Qiao Nian couldn’t help but smile. There was a hint of joy in her voice as she called out, "Grandma!"
Su Yan smiled and handed the cell phone to Matriarch Gu. Matriarch Gu held the cell phone with both hands and looked at Qiao Nian on the screen. With a loving expression, she asked, "How was your meal over there? Why do I feel that you’ve lost weight again?"
Qiao Nian couldn’t help but smile. "Grandma, I just left. I haven’t lost weight!"
"You just can’t grow fat when you’re at home. Young ladies have to be chubby to be healthy," Matriarch Gu said solemnly. Seeing Gu Zhou walk over to Qiao Nian, she called out, "Ah Zhou."
"Grandma?" Gu Zhou had just gone to the bathroom. He didn’t expect Qiao Nian to still be video-calling Grandma when he came out.
"Take care of Nian Nian more often. Look at how thin she is. I’ve told you many times that you have to take good care of Nian Nian. If Nian Nian loses weight again when she comes back this time, I’ll settle the score with you," Matriarch Gu said to Gu Zhou.
Gu Zhou was speechless.
Matriarch Gu glanced at the living room again. Seeing that the three children had left, she said, "Nian Nian, don’t listen to their nonsense. Grandma has been through this before. When women give birth, they walk through the gates of hell. Back then, you gave birth to three children in one go. You have to take good care of your health. You can’t give birth again. Giving birth is really too painful!"
When Qiao Nian heard Matriarch Gu’s words, her heart warmed. "Grandma, I understand. Actually, Ah Zhou usually takes good care of me. Don’t worry."
