Seeing the call records on the phone screen, Jiang Heshu's face turned pale instantly.
Since yesterday afternoon, Grandma Gu Jing has contacted her grandmother four times, and one of the longest calls lasted for an hour.
Jiang Heshu clutched the phone tightly and couldn't help but feel flustered.
What did they talk about?
Pei Sui'an noticed her emotional changes, with doubts in his eyes: "Mom?"
Jiang Heshu forced a smile, shook his head and said, "Mom is fine."
Only Jiang Heshu himself knew whether it was really okay or not.
Soon, grandma was ready to check.
The doctor looked at the list and said: "You have taken good care of the patient. If there is no problem, you will observe him for a while. If there is no problem, you will not come. Just check him regularly in the future."
This is great news. Jiang Heshu would have been ecstatic before, but now...
She twitched her lips, her smile a little forced.
Grandma seemed to notice something. She looked at Jiang Heshu, but didn't say anything.
An hour later, they returned to the villa.
Grandma went back to her room to rest. Jiang Heshu stood at the door and hesitated again and again, but still didn't knock on the door.
She struggled in her heart and couldn't help but hold on to a bit of luck.
Last time, my uncle and aunt said a few words to grandma, and grandma went to the emergency room.
If grandma really knew the truth, grandma would definitely not be as calm as she is now...
At this moment, Aunt Liu came over.
She said with annoyance on her face: "The old lady was chatting with me last night, talking about the time when the little lady was just born."
"I didn't notice that I missed something. I don't know if the old lady has any suspicion..."
Jiang Heshu made a thump in his heart as he remembered some details.
Grandma had a check-up today and gave her her cell phone. She happened to see the call from Grandma Gu Jing and the call history.
She had a trace of luck in her heart, and Aunt Liu said that she had let her grandmother know last night.
Perhaps grandma didn't just chat with Aunt Liu last night, but deliberately tricked Aunt Liu.
Jiang Heshu pinched his fingertips and stood there thinking a lot.
After a long time, she gritted her teeth and knocked on her grandmother's door.
Grandma didn't rest. She was reading a book. When she saw Jiang Heshu, she was not surprised at all.
"Grandma, Pei Yan and I..."
Jiang Heshu made up his mind to confess to his grandmother, but when the words came to his lips, he found that he couldn't say them out.
Grandma put down the book, took over the conversation, and said bluntly: "You want to say that you and Pei Yan are a fake couple and you lied to me, right?"
Jiang Heshu lowered his head and nodded after a while.
Grandma let out a long sigh, "He Shu, grandma doesn't blame you for lying to me, grandma only blames herself."
She couldn't imagine how much grievance Jiang Heshu had endured because of her during this period.
Two lines of tears rolled down grandma's wrinkled face, and she stretched out her hands to hug Jiang Heshu into her arms.
"It was grandma who harmed you. If it hadn't been for grandma, you wouldn't have spent so much money on my treatment, and you wouldn't have married Gu Jing, causing you to suffer so much..."
"This is all grandma's fault. It was grandma who hurt you." Grandma's voice was choked with sobs, feeling extremely self-blame and guilt.
Grandma barely slept that whole night, thinking over and over again what Gu Jing's grandma Zhao Xiufang said to her.
Zhao Xiufang said that Gu Jing was confused for a moment and was tempted to make a mistake, but she already knew it was a mistake and promised never to make it again in the future.
As soon as grandma heard this, she knew that Gu Jing had cheated on her, and who the cheating partner was...
Zhao Xiufang didn't hide anything about how Jiang Xiaxia used despicable means to seduce her grandson.
She also said: "Actually, Gu Jing also has good intentions. He Shu will not give birth. He wants Jiang Xiaxia to give He Shu a child. They are cousins and have close blood ties, just like He Shu's own child."
Such shameless words almost made grandma faint. She tried her best to adjust her breathing before she could bear it.
Jiang Heshu spent a lot of money on her medical treatment. He concealed this because he was afraid that her body would not be able to bear it. She could not hurt her body anymore because of this, which made Jiang Heshu not only have to pay for it, but also worry about her.
Grandma calmed down her emotions, suppressed the anger in her heart, talked a lot with Zhao Xiufang, and learned many things that Jiang Heshu refused to tell her.
Grandma calculated the time and found that when Jiang Heshu rushed to Z City Hospital to visit her at night, Jiang Heshu discovered that Gu Jing had cheated on Jiang Xiaxia not long ago.
In other words, at that time Jiang Heshu had to bear the pain of her husband's cheating, pretend to take care of her as if nothing had happened, and worry about her huge medical expenses.
In addition to these, Jiang Heshu also lied and pretended to live a happy life, fearing that he would know about her and Gu Jing.
Grandma also learned from Zhao Xiufang where the money for her medical treatment came from.
Jiang Heshu sold the car and house that he had fought for when divorcing Gu Jing.
The children raised by themselves are burdened with countless pressures, and every step is extremely difficult, but they don't know anything.
This makes grandma regretful.
Jiang Heshu quickly wiped away the tears on her grandmother's face, shook her head and said, "Grandma, I have not been wronged. You are the person who loves me the most and loves me the most in the world. How could you harm me?"
She pretended to be cheerful and said: "If the bad ones don't go away and the good ones don't come, if Gu Jing didn't cheat on her, how could I have met Pei Yan?"
"At first we pretended to be a couple, but after being in contact for such a long time..."
She lowered her eyes and said with some embarrassment: "Pei Yan is handsome, his family is rich, and he treats me very well. I have fallen in love with him now."
"Although Suisui was not born by me, she is well-behaved and sensible. I like her very much and have already treated her as my own daughter."
"Grandma, those things are over. Now I don't have to worry about money, food and clothing. I am happy every day."
Jiang Heshu could only say this to reassure grandma.
It's a pity that after all these things, grandma didn't trust her.
She said: "I called Grandma Pei Yan, and she will be here shortly. Let's talk about you and Pei Yan and our moving out."
Jiang Heshu was startled, "Grandma, Pei Yan and I have already been engaged and received the certificate, and the wedding will be held in more than half a month..."
In fact, this is not the point. The key is that she and Pei Yan signed a marriage agreement.
The marriage lasted for one year, and if there was a breach of contract, there would be huge liquidated damages.
Grandma didn’t know this. She said, “Weddings can be canceled and marriages can be divorced.”
"He Shu, grandma doesn't want you to lose your marriage because of someone, even if that person is grandma."
"A few years ago, because grandma didn't know people well, she set you up with Gu Jing, causing you to waste three years and causing you so much harm."
"Now, grandma can't just watch you get married to an unsuitable and unsuitable man because of me."
Her Shu Shu is already twenty-six years old this year. If Pei Yan consumes her for a few more years, her best time will be wasted.
Jiang Heshu opened his mouth, "Grandma, Pei Yan is different from Gu Jing."
The nature of her marriage to Pei Yan was also different from her original marriage to Gu Jing.
It's a pity that grandma didn't listen because Jiang Heshu was too fond of reporting good news but not bad news, and she was afraid of being deceived by Jiang Heshu again.
Not long after, Grandma Pei came.
Grandma didn't say anything on the phone, but when Grandma Pei saw the red eyes of Grandma and Jiang Heshu, she was keenly aware of the difference from the past.
After Aunt Liu brought fruits and tea, she wisely took Pei Sui'an upstairs to play, leaving the living room to Jiang Heshu and the others.
