Chapter 120 Returning Home

Chapter 121 Going Home
  "Qingqing, I am no longer their tutor, and we will have no contact in the future. So, you must stay away from them in the future. People with this kind of family background are not something we can get in touch with." Wen Ning grabbed Fang Qing's hand and instructed him, feeling a little uneasy.

  Seeing that he was so nervous, Fang Qing didn't know what to say. "I'm just curious. Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. How could I have any intersection with them? Don't think too much."

  Just then, the train salesperson came over with a cart. Fang Qing waved and bought two meals. Only then did the two of them stop talking.

  The green train moved slowly and finally arrived at Jingtan County Railway Station the next morning.

  After leaving home for more than half a year, Fang Qing stepped into the house again. Seeing the familiar intersection and courtyard gate, she became more and more excited.

  But when she pushed open the courtyard door, she was stunned.

  Her family's yard had once been beautifully maintained, but now not only were the two large wolfhounds gone, but the fruit trees were gone, and even the small flower wall her father and mother had built in the yard had collapsed.

  What had happened? How come she hadn't seen anyone there for so long after entering?
  Fang Qing was anxious and hurried to the main house. The living room was still the same, but Fang Qing felt as if something was missing.

  After putting down her luggage, Fang Qing walked through the living room and called out to her mother, but no one responded. She checked the time and saw that everyone in the family should have gone to work, so it was normal that no one was there, but why were all the bedroom doors locked?

  Fang Qing's joy at returning home gradually faded, and she became more anxious and confused. After checking several rooms without being able to enter, she ran to the backyard and finally saw a figure.

  Grandma was sitting in a rocking chair with her eyes closed, basking in the sun. Fang Qing watched from a distance and found that Grandma seemed thinner than she was six months ago and didn't look as energetic as she used to be.

  Fang Qing was afraid of scaring the old lady by rushing forward, so he dodged a few times from a distance. "I'm back. Is anyone home?"

  Fang Qing's voice made the old lady slowly open her eyes. She slowly sat up, put on her reading glasses and looked at Fang Qing, but after a long look, she still couldn't recognize who it was. "Hey, who is this? She looks familiar. Who are you looking for?"

  Fang Qing looked at the grandmother and walked over excitedly. She squatted down in front of the old lady, took her withered hands, and smiled and looked up. "Grandma, it's me, I'm Fang Qing. Don't you recognize me?"

  It had only been half a year since they last met, and the old lady had obviously aged a lot. Her eyes were blurry, and her memory seemed to be not as good. She no longer had the lively energy of last year.

  Old Mrs. Fang squinted her eyes and stared at Fang Qing for a long time. It was as if her memory had opened up. She finally remembered that the girl in front of her was her granddaughter who was in college!

  "Oh! It's my eldest granddaughter who's back! Oh, look at grandma's memory. I didn't realize it for a long time. My granddaughter is getting more and more beautiful. Grandma almost couldn't recognize her... Why did you come back at this time? Isn't the school curriculum tight?"

  Grandma seemed very happy to see her. She took her hand and tried to stand up, but she failed after trying several times. Instead, she was exhausted and gasped. "Oh, I'm old. Grandma's body is not good now. I'm sorry to make you laugh..."

  Although her family and grandma had not been happy in the past, she still understood grandma's temper after getting along for so long. Although she was confused sometimes, she was not bad by nature. She was strong all her life, but now she was so weak. It was really due to age. Time makes people grow old...

  Fang Qing stepped forward and took the grandmother's arm, and helped the old woman to sit in the wheelchair beside her, "Grandma, you are joking, you are still young, and there will be many things at home that you will need to take charge of in the future, so you must take care of yourself. It's too cold outside, I will push you back to the house."

  Old Mrs. Fang smiled and patted Fang Qing's hand, "You just try to comfort me, I know what my old bones are like. However, Qingqing is different after going to college, she likes to talk more than before, it's good this way, she won't suffer any loss when she goes out in the future..."

  Fang Qing pushed grandma back to the living room, heated the stove, washed her hands, boiled water and made a pot of tea, then sat down to unpack and take out the things she brought with her.

  "Grandma, I brought you a woolen vest. It's easy to put on and take off, and it's warm. Put it on when you're out in the sun, and you won't be so cold anymore."

  Old Mrs. Fang took the purple-red cardigan, and the wrinkles on her face smiled like a flower. "Ah, I'm so old, and I didn't expect that my granddaughter would remember me first. I'm so grateful, so grateful..."

  She had noticed a touch of sadness in the atmosphere. She didn't understand what had happened at home in the past six months, but now that she was back, some things were not easy to ask.

  So she joked around and told her grandmother some interesting stories from her university campus. Perhaps it had been a long time since she had chatted with an old lady like this, so Old Mrs. Fang was very happy and enthusiastically asked Fang Qing to tell her more.

  When hearing the news about Wen Ning, Old Lady Fang still restrained her expression, and looked a little worried, "Qing girl, although grandma doesn't know what the relationship between you two young lovers is like, but as a person who has been through this, grandma still has some words to tell you."

  Grandma Fang held Fang Qing's hand, her face serious, "Although the times are different now, girls should pay attention to their image and be reserved at all times. Men are only cherished when they can't get them. I don't object to you young people dating, but you must remember that you must never do anything out of line."

  Grandma Fang seemed to be afraid that Fang Qing would be angry, and after saying this, she hurriedly explained a few more words, "Grandma's words may not sound good, but you are still young and don't understand how dirty the hearts of people outside are. Girls must learn to protect themselves "You are the first college student in our family. You must have a bright future. You must not ruin your own future because of your personal conduct..."

  Fang Qing understood that her grandmother was worried that she would be led astray by new ideas and things outside. She smiled and nodded quickly, "Grandma, I understand. What you said is all for my own good. I have remembered everything you said. I will definitely not bring shame to our Fang family." Only

  then did Mrs. Fang pat her hands in relief. "Your mother and your brother have gone to work and will not be back until noon. Your room is locked and your mother has the key. If you are tired, come to my room and lie down. Your mother and others will be back at noon."

  At this point, Fang Qing was full of questions, "Grandma, why are our rooms all locked?"

  When this was mentioned, Mrs. Fang slammed her hands on the table in anger. "Alas, our family is in trouble. A lot of things have happened in the past six months since you went to college. Forget it. Let your mother tell you when she comes back. You should pack up your things and go to my room to rest for a while..."
