Just one word.
Chu Ci froze for a moment.
The little hands grabbed the clothes of the mother-in-law.
The mother-in-law didn't hear the little girl's voice, so she looked down.
I saw the usually well-behaved and cute little girl buried in her arms.
There was faint dampness on the clothes.
She froze for a moment and came back to her senses.
He raised his hand and stroked Chu Ci's head gently.
She said in a low voice, "Grandma probably won't have a job for long, and if Cici is willing, she can live with her."
"Is... not alone?"
Chu Ci raised her eyes, a little dazed.
Seeing the little girl crying, her eyes were red.
He looked at himself pitifully and helplessly.
The mother-in-law smiled and nodded, "The old lady was saved by Cici."
Chu Ci pursed the corners of her lips, originally wanting to flinch, but seeing the other party's gentle smile, she finally grabbed her clothes, nodded, and responded.
The mother-in-law is naturally very happy.
Having lived to this age, and having seen so many storms and waves, she doesn't have so many ideas compared to those guys who are always pedantic and stubborn.
Originally, she had no children, and now she is very happy to have such a well-behaved and beautiful little granddaughter. As for those who are special or not, there is really no need to care about them.
Thinking of this, she let Chu Ci help her up, took the crutches back, and smiled kindly in a low voice, "Speaking of which, I've been calling you Cici, Cici, and I still don't know what your natal name is?"
"Birth name?"
Chu Ci froze for a moment.
"Yeah, a life with a name and a surname."
The mother-in-law touched Chu Ci's head gently, "Cici is a good girl, and she is still willing to contact us, which means that she met a good person before."
At this time, Chu Ci lowered her eyes and pursed the corners of her lips.
Turn out the picture in the memory that I have never dared to touch.
Finally, she nodded heavily in response, raised her head and smiled obediently, "Chu... My surname is Chu, and my name is Chu Ci."
That was the surname of grandma's family, a surname she had forgotten for a long time.
***
After that, Chu Ci has been living with her grandmother.
The neighbors around also know each other and take care of them from time to time.
Because of his young age, no one noticed anything wrong with Chu Ci.
Chu Ci is also becoming more and more well-behaved and lively.
I don't know how many years have passed.
The mother-in-law was already sitting on the reclining chair, her movements were quite inconvenient, and her memory had also become very poor, but her kind-hearted look remained unchanged.
Chu Ci was carrying a small blanket, and came over with a smile to cover her mother-in-law's knees.
Sitting on the small stool next to her, she blinked her big eyes and looked at her mother-in-law.
"Want to listen to mother-in-law telling stories again?"
The mother-in-law smiled and tapped the tip of Chu Ci's nose lightly with her fingers.
Chu Ci smiled like a piece of honey, "Yes, yes, the stories told by mother-in-law are the best."
"My mother-in-law is old and can't remember many things, so you still compliment me."
"Where is it?"
Chu Ci pressed her chin on her mother-in-law's knee, turned her head sideways, and looked at her mother-in-law, looking very soft.
Tease the mother-in-law into a more loving smile.
Then a little bit about the stories handed down from the ancestors.
What kind of goddess who descended from the sky, the fairy who appeared in the village from time to time...
The voice was slow and kind, making Chu Ci drowsy.
The sound of the old TV is muffled and of poor quality.
It was a rainy night, accompanied by the sound of Lingling rain.
Very warm and charming.
