Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path-Chapter 23: Grandma’s House

When Yang Yunhai reached out to grab a second bun, Gu Lingling also picked up her bowl to start eating.

"Thank you, Grandma." Gu Lingling took another bite of food, like a greedy little kitten, "Grandma’s cooking is delicious."

Just a moment ago, she was anxious about what to do upon entering the house. But it turned out Grandma had already prepared the meal and was waiting for her, with Yao Jingsong’s sulking face beside her.

"If it’s delicious, eat more." Grandma Yao smiled as she helped her granddaughter with more food, "Try this, too."

This was the first time her granddaughter had proactively said she wanted to visit and stay over. When Gu Chunhai came to deliver the message, she almost couldn’t believe it.

"Gu Lingling, what’s your real aim here? Speak up, what do you want this time?" Yao Jingsong said coldly.

"Are you mad that I ate your meat buns? So petty." Gu Lingling intentionally pouted at her younger brother, "Here, have this piece of meat."

Knowing she’d come today, Grandma Yao specially made braised pork.

"Now that you mention it, I’ve suddenly remembered there’s indeed a purpose." Gu Lingling put down her chopsticks and said teasingly.

"Gu Lingling, have you no shame left?" Yao Jingsong snapped, throwing down his chopsticks and stood up, yelling.

"I want to learn cooking from Grandma. Her skills shouldn’t be lost." Gu Lingling continued eating earnestly, then slowly spoke.

In the room, Grandma Yao, initially tense, beamed upon hearing this, "Sure, as long as Yaya wants to learn, Grandma will teach you everything."

She used to be a cook in a wealthy family, and her skills were passed down from generations.

"Grandma, why do you trust her?" Yao Jingsong angrily grabbed Grandma Yao’s arm, "Someone like her..."

"Baobao." Grandma Yao hurriedly stopped Yao Jingsong, "Yaya is your elder sister."

"I don’t have a sister like her." Yao Jingsong retorted angrily.

Whenever she came to their house, it was always demanding this or that.

"Grandma, Baobao." Gu Lingling interrupted, "I know I was reckless before, foolishly used by others; I won’t let it happen again."

Yao Jingsong let out a mocking laugh.

"Baobao, I understand you don’t believe me. Words are empty promises; you’ll see my actions later." Regarding Yao Jingsong’s attitude, Gu Lingling wasn’t angry at all—she knew she’d committed too many foolish deeds before.

Yao Jingsong coldly snorted and rushed out.

He would never believe the words of this foolish woman.

"Yaya, is it true?" Grandma Yao joyfully embraced her granddaughter, "It’s wonderful you can see things clearly now."

"Grandma, I’m sorry." Gu Lingling whispered, nestled in Grandma’s arms.

Hearing Grandma call her by her name again was truly wonderful.

In her previous life, she was too stubborn, severing ties with her grandmother’s family. Later, she heard that after she eloped with Lv Guodong, her grandfather and grandmother caused a stir at the Gu Family and searched for her everywhere.

She regretted it later, but how could she have the face to visit her grandparents?

"As long as you’re well, it’s enough. Baobao is just temporarily unable to understand; don’t be upset." Grandma Yao said with a smile. Yao Jingsong was still young and naive in judgment, but having lived for most of her life, she naturally saw the truth in her granddaughter’s words. freёweɓnovel_com

This granddaughter was different from before.

Gu Lingling shook her head; how could she?

That night, Gu Lingling slept comfortably on the bed at Grandma’s house, filled with the scent of sunshine, feeling utterly content.

Yet in the middle of the night, she was startled awake by a dream again, and this dream involved Yao Jingsong.

The sight of bloodied Yao Jingsong caused a pang in Gu Lingling’s heart.

No matter the circumstances, this time she was determined to protect her family.

Gu Lingling sat on the bed, dazed for a long time, and didn’t even know how she finally fell asleep.
