"Grandpa, I don't want you to go. Can you stay, please?" Jie You said, his voice thick with tears.
Grandpa's gaze faltered for a moment. 'Xiao You's words are too stiff,' he thought. 'They came out so mechanically, without a hint of real emotion. Is he really sad to see us go? No, someone taught him to say this.'
Grandpa knew exactly what was going on. When he was just giving Xiao You advice, he'd deliberately avoided telling him to listen to his mother. If Xu Chunyan were to teach Xiao You, the boy would be ruined. 'When I get home,' Grandpa thought, 'I'll find some time to go to the machinery factory and talk to the eldest. I'll have him remind Jing Er to take Xiao You's education seriously.'
Because of the incident with Zhang Hongyan, Jing Er held a grudge against him. He wouldn't listen to anything Grandpa said.
