The old lady looked at her granddaughter who seemed to be unable to get around the dilemma. She felt helpless and anxious. Finally, she couldn't help herself and blurted out the truth from her heart.

"Hey, Xixi, grandma actually wants to know if you've met a boy you like outside. Grandma knows that kids like you who work in the city get married later than we did, but love always has to have a beginning, right? Look at Qingqing next door to our house. She's not much older than you, and her child is almost a year old."

Suddenly, they were put into a contrast photo. Lu Xi was very smart and she didn't expect the old lady to be so direct.

However, it was obviously wrong for the old lady to mention this person. There were so many people in the village who got married at a young age, but she chose the one who laid mines.

"Grandma, you mentioned Qingqing. If you hadn't mentioned her, I would have almost forgotten about her. I wanted to ask you the last time I came here. Where did Qingqing marry? Is she not doing well? I think she has changed a lot. She looks several years older than me. I wonder if the child is too noisy and makes her worry, or if she has a conflict with her husband at home."

Lu Xi didn't lie. She had seen Qingqing that her grandmother mentioned the last time she came here. Judging from her appearance, Qingqing did not look like a girl in her early twenties.

In fact, I saw Lu Xi once during the Chinese New Year two or three years ago. He seemed quite young and energetic. I don’t know what happened to him after he got married.

When the old lady heard this, the smile on her face froze slightly. She didn't expect that she would be humiliated here.

Qingqing next to them does have a one-year-old child, but it's a girl. Her in-laws are not happy about it and are now urging her to have a second child. However, the child is still so young, and Qingqing doesn't agree, so she often goes back to her parents' home.

The old lady just wanted to use this as an example and tell her granddaughter to find a boyfriend as soon as possible so that she would have someone to rely on outside. However, she didn't expect that her granddaughter didn't know about Qingqing's situation and could still see that Qingqing was not living a happy life.

Lu Xi looked at the old lady's slightly complicated expression, and her tone became more serious. "Grandma, I think you really have to think twice before getting married and having children. This is related to the future. If you meet an unreliable man and you are pregnant, you have to cook for him with a big belly. How sad that would be."

She was not lying without thinking. This was a complaint post she saw on a social software. She was quite shocked when she saw it.

The old lady's face changed slightly when she heard this. She was obviously touched by what Lu Xi said. "Yes, Xixi, you are right. She met the wrong person."

Seeing this, Lu Xi struck while the iron was hot and continued the conversation: "Yes, grandma, think about what happened in our village, many people are not living a good life.

Take the family on the street for example. The woman was unable to cook because she was sick, so she was scolded. I heard that they almost got into a fight, but I don’t know if they actually did.

And the couple in the Back Street are quarreling every day. I heard from my second grandmother that the man seems to have another woman outside and doesn't care about the children at home. Men like this are better off not having them.

I also heard that the old lady in the family at the head of our village has Alzheimer's disease and no one is taking care of her. The old man and three children in the family don't want to take care of her. Alas, how pitiful she is."

The system, which had been squatting on a stool nearby and watching the excitement, suddenly sent a message to Lu Xi, "Host, the research institute confirmed that the drug trial to cure Alzheimer's disease was successful half a minute before you said this. I don't know the details, I only know that it was a certain substance extracted from the crystal core."

[Really?] Lu Xi was surprised, but more of a delight. She didn't expect that a casual mention of hers would actually lead to a connection with the research building.

Although there are no elderly people around her who suffer from this disease, they all know that this disease was incurable in the past.

[I just happened to be in contact with Momo tonight. Her system is depending on you, so you have to keep it up.]

[No problem. According to the normal situation of the doomsday, if we can finally save the world, it will take at least ten to twenty years to complete. We can be regarded as helping each other.]

[Okay.] In a dozen or twenty years, based on the technology of that time, we should have been able to develop something that could replace it.

The old lady knew everything that Lu Xi had just said, but when her granddaughter brought it up at this time, she knew what it meant without having to explain.

She sighed and said, "Well, let's not talk about this anymore, let's eat."

Lu Xi almost laughed out loud. After giving so many examples, the old lady was so annoyed by her that she didn't want to talk about it anymore. "Well, as for eating, I still think working hard and making money is better than anything else."

Moreover, the nature of her current job is that not just anyone can come into contact with her, so she would delay it if possible, but if not, she would just say it directly.

With the old lady's current body condition and the pills that Lu Xi fed her, it would not be a problem for her to live for another thirty years. However, Lu Xi didn't want to listen to her nagging for more than thirty years.

Unexpectedly, the old lady actually agreed with what Lu Xi said just now, "Yes, you earned your own money, and holding it in your hands is better than anything else. Don't do it like today and buy so many things. You have to work hard in a big city by yourself, so you have to save it in your hands."

"Okay, listen to grandma. There won't be a next time. When I come next time, I will only bring you things."

"I didn't say that, kid. Eat your meal."

Lu Xi smiled, picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it in Long Ruilin's bowl, "Be good, you eat too."

The little fellow was watching the show with great interest just now. He looked at this and that, his big eyes wide open like lanterns, and he didn't eat much of the food in the bowl.

Long Ruilin chuckled, showing his big white teeth, "Okay, let's eat. Sister and grandma should also eat."

The old lady was also amused and gave the only braised chicken leg on the plate to Long Ruilin, "Okay, there's still one chicken leg left, give it to Longlong."

"Thank you grandma."

After the three of them finished their meal, Lu Xi cleaned up the table, said goodbye to the old lady, and went back home to rest early.

They practiced in the first half of the night, and in the second half the three of them went back to the supermarket together. It wasn't long since they last saw Jiang Momo and Xiao Jingan, but it felt like they hadn't seen each other for a long time, and she was very much looking forward to seeing Jiang Momo.

However, before Lu Xi even entered her room, she was stopped by the system, "Let's go, I'll take you two to see the kitten."
