Compared to the couple making love in the bathroom, old lady Su's room downstairs seemed a little warmer.

Since he had promised the two little kids to help talk to them about Tang Zimo, Su Jianye took a basin of foot-washing water and prepared to wash his mother's feet while the old lady was still awake.

At first, Mrs. Su was determined not to accept it. Although Su Jianye was her youngest son, he was already sixty years old.

The old lady felt a little reluctant to let her son, who was over 70 years old, wash her feet.

But in the end, unable to bear Su Jianye's strong insistence, Mrs. Su had no choice but to accept it.

..........

Feeling the unprecedented filial piety from her youngest son, Old Mrs. Su sighed helplessly.

...........

"Hey~~~"

"Think about it, I have never enjoyed this kind of blessing in my life. I remember that you two brothers were still young, and your old father was still alive. Our family of four lived in a house of less than 30 square meters. Although it was a bit crowded, it was still warm."

................

I don’t know if it’s because of her age, but the old lady felt a little uncomfortable seeing the little naked kid squatting on the ground washing her feet.

You know, she hasn't seen her two sons for more than ten years since the fight between the two brothers.

If I hadn't taken the opportunity to invite this boy back this time using the matter of my granddaughter-in-law, I'm afraid I might never see him again in this life.

............

After years of baptism, Su Jianye no longer had the anger he once had. Hearing the sadness in his mother's words, in order to prevent the old lady from feeling too heavy, he casually responded:

"Mom, it's been so many years and you still remember it so clearly. I think you should stop reminiscing about the past. You suffered so much when you were young. Now that you finally have the time to enjoy your life, you should be happy and look forward."

..........

Seeing that her youngest son could now comfort people, Old Mrs. Su smiled kindly.

"Looking forward?"

"I, your mother, am already over 80 years old this year. If you look forward, you will see your grandfather. Besides, when you were young, you were eager to pursue a career and love, and all you could see was money. Now that you are older, you can't have a career and you don't have the chance to fall in love, so you naturally like to think about what you were like when you were young."

"How does one say that......"

"Yes... At sixty, one's heart is as clear as water, and at seventy, one knows the destiny even more clearly. I, your mother, am already over eighty. I have been running around for the Su family all my life. Now I finally have time to enjoy the scenery of life. How can I not recall my youth?"

............

Perhaps seeing the worry in her youngest son's eyes, the old lady laughed and said something to herself.

"Don't worry. I've been through a lot. If I get mad at the past, then I've lived in vain."

...............

Su Jianye: “..............”

..............

Originally, he was still thinking of an excuse to get the old lady to stop talking about this topic.

But seeing that what his mother said at such an old age was quite philosophical, Su Jianye simply stopped trying to stop her.

After all, as my mother said, people of their age have already taken life and death lightly.

Since the old lady likes it, just chat with her.

............

Thinking about this,

Su Jianye made a joke while washing his mother's feet.

"Mom, I know your life has not been easy. I'm just worried that I always made you angry when I was a kid. What if you remember something and beat me up?"

..............

Unexpectedly, Su Jianye's deliberate teasing words really made the old lady laugh.

Old Mrs. Su raised her hand and symbolically patted her youngest son's shoulder a few times. After a burst of laughter, the old lady said something in a reproachful manner.

"Hahaha!!!"

"Son, you hit the nail on the head. You two brothers really made me angry back then."

"Mom still remembers that you two little brothers were very naughty back then. You would get yourself dirty every now and then. Whenever you came home from school, I would scold you while bathing and washing your clothes. So many years have passed in a flash. Every time I think about it, I get so angry."

"Now your two brothers' children have reached the age of starting their own families and careers. Decades have passed by so quickly. Time really spares no one!"

...............

Perhaps her son's words touched the heart of this old lady who had lived a lonely life.

Her thoughts suddenly went back to decades ago, and her mind was filled with scenes of her two sons acting like spoiled brats in front of her.

But when she came back to her senses and saw her little son with silver hair squatting on the ground, Old Mrs. Su actually burst into tears while smiling.

.............

Seeing this scene,

Thinking that his mother was hurt by the memories, Su Jianye asked hurriedly.

"Mom...Mom, what's wrong with you?"

"If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, I will ask a private doctor to check you out right now."

............

While talking,

Su Jianye was worried about his mother's health and hurriedly got up to find a private doctor, but Mrs. Su wiped the tears from her eyes and hurriedly stopped him:

"Don't be afraid, son. Mom is fine. I just feel bad thinking about how you, my little brother, secretly went out to collect waste in order to buy a toy."

...............

Su Jianye: “.............”

..............

Su Jianye looked at his mother's eyes carefully and felt relieved when he was sure that the old lady's eyes were still as bright as before.

"Mom, I told you not to recall the past. Even though you have survived all the ups and downs, memories are like a knife. Although they are not fatal, they are always cutting your heart."

............

It was the first time in her life that she heard such a distressed reproach from her hot-tempered little son. Mrs. Su nodded.

She said this kindly while pulling him down to squat.

"Mom knows. Since you want to wash my feet today, just wash them well. We haven't had a good chat for so many years. I want to talk to you about something while you're still here and I'm still confused."

..............

Su Jianye: “...............”
