Chapter 565 Why, why her?
Zhou Yi's voice went hoarse for a moment.
She looked at Xu Fengzhen, whose weathered face, etched with the marks of time, was full of understanding.
She can't hide anything.
"Grandma, you..."
Zhou Yi wanted to ask how her grandmother knew, but stopped herself as soon as she spoke.
Her brow furrowed, unsure of what to say.
Looking at her like this, Xu Fengzhen said gently, "Don't rush, listen to what Grandma has to say."
Upon hearing Xu Fengzhen's words, Zhou Yi felt a lump in her throat and her eyes welled up with tears.
But very quickly, she suppressed her emotions and nodded: "Grandma, please speak."
"Listen, Yi Yi."
She looked at Xu Fengzhen with red eyes, like a kitten that had been bullied outside, her body shrunken and full of grievance.
Xu Fengzhen felt sorry for her, held her hand tightly, her face full of vicissitudes: "When you were young, there were some things that Grandma didn't want you to know. I just wanted you to be happy, and to stay happy like this forever."
"But now, there are some things Grandma has to tell you, things you should know."
Zhou Yi's eyes welled up with tears: "Grandma..."
Xu Fengzhen smiled at her, placed her hand on her cheek, wiped away the wetness from the corner of her eyes, and said, "It's okay, it's not shameful to cry in front of your grandmother."
Zhou Yi tried to hold back, but when Xu Fengzhen said those words, she could no longer hold back, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
Xu Fengzhen could no longer suppress her tears as they streamed down her face, landing on her hands, burning hot and searing her heart.
She said affectionately, "Cry, and Grandma will talk to you after you've cried it out."
"Grandma will always be by my Yiyi's side, accompanying my Yiyi, and protecting my Yiyi."
Zhou Yi burst into tears again.
No longer suppressing her emotions, no longer controlling herself, she looked at Xu Fengzhen, large tears blurring her vision.
She hugged Xu Fengzhen's hand, buried her face in it, and began to sob.
Like a tormented little animal, it cried out all its grievances in Xu Fengzhen's arms.
why?
why her?
Why does everyone else have a father and mother, but she doesn't?
Why do other people's parents love them, but she doesn't? Why?
Why do you do this to her?
She also wants to have a father and mother, she also wants to be loved by her parents, she also wants to be protected by her parents when she is bullied, why doesn't she have them?
Why does she only have a grandmother?
Why is it so unfair to her?
She's already trying so hard to live her life, trying so hard to be with her grandma, trying so hard to be happy, so why do those bad people still have to show up?
Why would they hurt her only family member? Why?
She knows that not everything in this world is fair, but isn't what she's doing too unfair?
She no longer begged her parents; she only asked that her grandmother stay by her side and that those bad people not appear.
All she wanted was to live a peaceful and happy life with her grandmother.
Even such a simple expectation must be taken away?
Zhou Yi didn't understand; she really didn't understand.
Xu Fengzhen looked at the person who was sobbing and burying her face in her hands. Her eyes welled up with tears, and she placed her hand on the person's back, gently stroking it.
is her.
Ultimately, it was she who dragged down her Yiyi.
Zhou Yi cried for a long time, so long that she didn't even know how many tears she shed.
All she knew was that she cried until her whole body went numb, then she lay on the bed, her face pressed against Xu Fengzhen's hand, lost in thought.
I don’t know what I’m thinking about.
Xu Fengzhen's hands, the blankets and sheets were all soaked.
Everything was icy cold.
Looking at her red and swollen eyes, and her face full of dependence, Xu Fengzhen said gently, "Zhou Jianye is very ambitious. Grandma knew this when he was very young. He wants a lot of things, but our family can't give him what he wants. He has to earn them himself."
Hearing her gentle and calm voice, Zhou Yi's eyelashes fluttered, and her eyes finally brightened.
She sat up and looked at Xu Fengzhen.
Seeing her sit up, Xu Fengzhen withdrew the hand that had been gently stroking her back, and grasped her hand tightly: "It's a good thing for a man to have ambitions in all directions, but he must acquire them in a proper way and not harm others. That's what Grandma has always taught him. He has worked very hard and has excelled in his studies since childhood. He has gone to university, worked, and supported himself all the way. That's very good."
“But Grandma never expected that he would betray the family, have an affair during your pregnancy, which would cause your mother to have a difficult childbirth and die after giving birth to you.”
“Your mother died so early because of Zhou Jianye. If it weren’t for Zhou Jianye’s actions, your mother wouldn’t have ended up like this, and you wouldn’t have suffered this injustice.”
Zhou Yi shook her head and held Xu Fengzhen's hand tightly with her two little hands: "Grandma, Yi Yi is not wronged. Yi Yi has Grandma. Yi Yi is very happy."
Xu Fengzhen shook her head: "Your mother is a kind and gentle child, just as kind as you. If she were alive, she wouldn't let you be bullied like this. It's your grandmother's fault for not raising you properly."
Zhou Yi kept shaking her head: "No, it has nothing to do with Grandma. It's Zhou Jianye, it's Sun Huilan. They're the ones who are bad. They're the ones who hurt Grandma and Mom. It's them."
"Grandma is not wrong. Yiyi doesn't blame Grandma. Grandma, please don't say that. It will make Yiyi feel very sad."
As she spoke, the tears she had just stopped welled up again.
Seeing that she was about to cry again, Xu Fengzhen smiled and nodded, "Okay, Grandma won't say that. It's not Grandma's fault."
Seeing Xu Fengzhen smile, Zhou Yi also smiled: "Yes! It's not Grandma's fault, it's all the bad people's fault!"
"It's wrong to take the blame for the mistakes of bad people."
"Yes, that's not right."
Zhou Yi smiled and took Xu Fengzhen's hand, placing it on his face and grinning foolishly at her.
Xu Fengzhen touched her face, her eyes full of pity: "Sun Huilan is a vicious woman. She often went to see your mother when she was pregnant with you. Your father not only did not protect your mother, but also joined Sun Huilan in bullying her. Neither of them are good people."
As she spoke, self-reproach and guilt surfaced in Xu Fengzhen's eyes.
"It's Grandma's fault for not protecting your mother."
Zhou Yi shook her head, her eyes clear: "No, it has nothing to do with you. It's Zhou Jianye and Sun Huilan who are bad; they have evil hearts."
"You can't be by your mother's side every day, you can't be with her every moment, it's them who are there for her."
"Bad people have a thousand ways to hurt someone, but good people can't know what the source of their harm is."
"Mom is too kind, and that's why they bully her."
"But I won't."
"Grandma, I won't let them succeed."
At that moment, her eyes shone with an intense light, enough to annihilate everything.
Xu Fengzhen looked at her resilience and indomitable spirit; within that soft, frail body lay a powerful heart that would not be defeated by anyone.
Xu Fengzhen nodded, looking at her eyebrows and eyes, which resembled Zuo Qing's very much.
