Sun Xue's words made Old Man Sun feel very warm inside.

He also wanted to have someone around to care about him and to be with him to confide in him.

After his wife passed away, he had unknowingly spent more than twenty years living alone.

Before coming to the city, he didn't dare to hope for such a thing given his family's financial situation. After coming to the city, his living conditions improved, but he felt inferior again. As a person with a disabled leg, would anyone still be interested in him?

Most importantly, he was worried that Sun Xue would object.

As time passed, he gradually gave up this idea, and the days passed like this.

He is very satisfied with his current life. He has everything that an elderly person in the city should have. He has even enjoyed all the aspects of life that an elderly person in the city has never enjoyed.

It wasn't until two years ago that he met Grandma Liu, an old lady who had also been widowed for many years.

They got along very well. They had similar family backgrounds, both came from rural areas, both suffered a lot in their youth, both were kind-hearted, and both had honest personalities.

It was from that time that the long-sealed desire for love in my heart was ignited little by little.

But even so, in the past two years, he never dared to mention this idea in front of Sun Xue, but just kept it hidden in his heart.

He was afraid of worldly gossip, and even more afraid of Sun Xue's strong opposition.

But he didn't expect that Sun Xue still discovered it so keenly.

What he didn't expect was that Sun Xue not only agreed with this matter, but also encouraged him to actively strive for it.

"Xue'er, do you really agree that Grandpa and Grandma Liu are together?"

Old man Sun was a little excited and asked tentatively.

Sun Xue placed Old Man Sun's hand in her palm, gently stroking the dry, branch-like fingers, her eyes full of love as she nodded vigorously:

"Yes! Grandpa, don't worry or feel any pressure. Life is short. I hope that every day in the future, I can see that I can live happily. This is my greatest wish."

"For decades, you've sacrificed your personal happiness for us, to support this family. Actually..."

Sun Xue suddenly felt sad. "Actually, I know it very well. I feel guilty when I think about it. Now that happiness has come, you must hold on to it and enjoy it. That way, I won't have any regrets."

Old Man Sun had tears in his eyes. He reached out and stroked Sun Xue's head. It felt like something was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't speak for a long time...

Sun Xue looked at Old Man Sun with a smile, "Grandpa, it's right to listen to me."

Old man Sun nodded with tears in his eyes, "Xue'er...Grandpa will listen to you..."

Sun Xue gently wiped the tears from the old man's eyes, looked carefully at his weather-beaten face, and said excitedly:

"Grandpa, if Grandma Li agrees, I want to hold a grand wedding for you, take the best wedding photos, and arrange for you to travel to the best cities in China. What do you think?"

Old Man Sun wiped his tears and laughed, "Xue'er, how could Grandpa dare to think about those things? Those are things that are popular among young people. We are all old."

Sun Xue said seriously, "Grandpa, love has no age limit. You must not miss out on everything that young people should have."

Sun Xue said confidently, "Before, our family was poor and we didn't have this kind of conditions. Now it's different. I have my own business. As long as you are still alive, I will let you have everything that others have."

Old Man Sun's face was filled with pride. "Xue'er, Grandpa has been very, very satisfied with his life."

"Grandpa, you took me home despite my family's objections and worked hard to raise me. Giving you a good life is my greatest motivation. I will spend my whole life repaying you for your great love and your kindness in raising me."

Old Man Sun was so moved that tears streamed down his face. "Okay, okay, my Xue'er, grandpa's sweet little cotton-padded jacket, grandpa is so happy!"

Seeing her grandfather crying, Sun Xue's tears also rolled down her cheeks.

Looking back on the road I have traveled, I am filled with emotion.

The thin girl from more than 20 years ago was the girl who was mocked by the villagers as a bastard and a jinx; the girl who ate pickled vegetable buns every day and was looked down upon by her classmates; the girl who ran wildly on the mountain road while reading English aloud; the girl who was chased by the urban management in order to earn a living and lost one of her shoes.

She gritted her teeth and refused to bow to life and difficulties. She trampled on the ridicule and gossip of others. The road ahead was too rugged and she fell, but she got up, brushed off the dust on her body and continued running.

With no one to encourage her, she cheered herself up. With no one to vent her sadness and grievances, she swallowed them and digested them herself.

She always has a strong belief in her heart that supports her: even if she falls a hundred times, she will get up a hundred and one times.

It is with this strong belief that she has overcome all obstacles and continuously transformed herself to have her current career, write her own legendary life, become a role model in the eyes of others, and live the life she hopes for.

Now it seems that she should be grateful for all the hardships in her past life.

It was these hardships that forged her excellent qualities of not giving up, not admitting defeat, and not compromising with the rough life. It was also these hardships that allowed her to create a wonderful world for herself.

"Xue'er, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying?"

Old Man Sun’s words suddenly pulled Sun Xue’s thoughts back from her memories.

Her eyes were filled with tears, but her smile was bright and sunny:

"Grandpa, I'm fine. I was just thinking, if I really want to hold a wedding for you, how should I plan a unique wedding..."

Old Man Sun's wrinkles were all wrinkled with joy. "You... just keep saying things to make Grandpa happy... This hasn't even started yet, and I don't know if your Grandma Liu's children agree..."

"Grandpa, they will definitely agree. When I'm not busy one day, I'll treat them and their family to a meal and have a good chat about this."

The time spent with grandpa passed quickly. Seeing the sky gradually darkening outside, Sun Xue reluctantly got up.

"Grandpa, I'm going back."

"and many more."

Old Man Sun went into the kitchen and filled a large jar of pickles. "Take it back and let your family try it."

Then he pointed to the opened apples and said, "Take the apples too. That one plate is enough for me."

Sun Xue joked, "Grandpa, I'm not going back. I want to stay with you for a few days before going back."

Old Man Sun smiled innocently, "Grandpa wants you to accompany him too, but you have to be obedient and go back. You haven't been home for such a long time. The two little ones miss you so much. Liu Bin misses you too. You have a family now."

"Grandpa, are you going to chase me away?" Sun Xue pouted and acted coquettishly.

"Go back quickly, don't make them wait anxiously. When you miss grandpa, bring the two little ones to see him."
