The beloved baby has a space

Chapter 658 The Grown-Up Children
Grandma Wang was actually quite at ease with her second son, who always tried to please her.

Actually, Grandma Wang knew that he just wanted to keep himself occupied so he wouldn't feel lonely.

Especially after leaving Hujia Village, Old Mrs. Wang had even fewer things to do than usual. There was no Jiang Dahua bothering her, and no one else needed her to do anything special.

As children grow up, they develop their own ideas and abilities, and the older generation gradually loses its role.

Just like those once-useful tools, as time goes by, they gradually become nothing more than decorations.

She has four sons and one daughter, eight grandsons and one granddaughter, and now she has a great-grandson. To outsiders, she should be an extremely lively family.

But her life around her was not very lively. Her eldest son, Wang Chuanfu, stayed in Hujia Village to farm all year round. The family did not like to visit each other. They would only ask someone to send them some farm supplies during festivals. They were rarely seen.

The third son, Wang Chuanyuan, runs a restaurant in Nanhe Town. The couple originally planned to open it in Fucheng, but then thought they couldn't be too far from their eldest brother, lest he feel lonely, so they decided to stay in the town from now on.

The fourth son has been doing business outside for several years and is not always at home now. He is busy in the village all day long. In the past, he was busy making the village bigger and stronger, but now he is busy with the tea plantation and tea, and also has to take care of the training grounds that the family bought.

In particular, the academy that Ayu took from the carefree king is now being looked after by Wang Chuanman because Ayu is going to work at the astrology department. Everyone is worried that she, a child, will be too tired, so they don't let her run back and forth all day.

The youngest daughter, Wang Aibao, opened a general store and spent her days tending to that small shop, which seemed to define her life. Old Mrs. Wang didn't try to persuade her, but simply let her think about it on her own.

As for her grandsons, besides studying literature and martial arts, some got married, and some took the imperial examinations; naturally, they couldn't stay with an old woman like her.

Ayu is always able to notice the emotions of everyone in the family. She is like a special observer. She can always be the first to notice when someone is unhappy, and she will stay by their side like a little fairy until they are happy again.

If anyone was sad, she would be the first to rush to their side to comfort them. Little Ayu was always by her side, this old woman.

As time went by, Ayu grew up. After going on a study tour, she returned home. Although the child still warmed her heart, she was older and had more things to do, so she spent less time with her.

Ayu is destined to be an eagle that flies, so naturally she must help Ayu fly even further.

And those grandchildren who grew up being scolded by her, from some point onwards, no longer deserved to be scolded so much. Sometimes, even if she wanted to scold them, she would find herself at a loss for words.

Over time, she became much quieter.

Only her second son has been constantly scolding her for over thirty years. Even when she tries to regain the composure she had when she was a princess, she often can't help but lose her composure.

She was a princess for only a little over ten years, and then she learned to be an ordinary peasant woman for nearly forty years.

It's hard to tell whether what's etched into her bones is more about being a princess or about being a "mother" or "grandmother."

So, she knew perfectly well that the second son was deliberately being annoying, wanting her to always be needed as a "mother".

"Fool." As Grandma Wang taught him, she couldn't help but spit out her tongue at Wang Chuangui's occasional deliberately foolish expressions.

Wang Chuangui readily agreed: "Oh dear, your son is indeed stupid, Mother, didn't you know that long ago? After I take up my post, there are still many things I don't understand, so I'll have to ask Mother to write to me more often to give me some pointers."
