Chapter 1433 – You’re a lot like your grandmother
As far as she could remember, she had never seen her grandmother at the Reed Family, and she had never heard her dad talk about her.
When she was young, she was also curious about how her grandparents didn’t, but her father never answered her, just touched her head and showed her eyes that she couldn’t read at the time.
Later, when she grew up, she understood that the look in her father’s eyes, was sad, was sad.
She was curious as to why her father would show such a sad face when it came to her grandparents, so she secretly looked into it and learned later that after the Reed Family went bankrupt for the first time, her grandparents were forced to die by a door-to-door debt collector.
No wonder dad doesn’t want to bring it up every time, and is so sad every time he does.
She grew up without ever feeling the love from her grandparents’ generation until she married into the Farrell Family, when she felt the love from her grandmother for the first time, which was so kind and warm.
Now Trenton suddenly mentioned her real grandmother, which also made her wonder what her real grandmother was like, was she as kind and old as Jared’s grandmother?
Seeming to see what Amber had in mind, Trenton returned with a gentle expression, “Your grandmother she is actually a very majestic person.”
Amber was slightly stunned.
Majestic?
I can’t believe it’s not the same kind and gentle person as Jared’s grandmother.
Jared stroked Amber’s hair, “That Mr. Gardner is right, The old Mrs. Gardner is indeed the most majestic old lady, grandmother although looks gentle and kind, but when facing big things, but also as majestic, this, you should know.”
Amber nodded, “I know.”
She had seen her grandmother’s seriousness when it came to serious matters.
“And The old Mrs. Gardner, more majestic than the grandmother, I met her old man a few times, every time I saw her, her expression was unsmiling and looked quite a scary old lady.”
“Mr. Farrell is right, but also not right.” Trenton shook his head slightly, “Amber, although your grandmother looks like this on the surface, but in fact she is also a gentle and kind person inside, when your grandmother was young, she was a thousand-year-old lady of a big family, because of that era, suffered severe hardship, so she became unsmiling, but in fact, in private, she still reveals her soft side. And your grandmother is good at embroidery, her embroidery works, many are included in the national museum, but also a lot of as a national gift sent to build diplomatic relations, and your grandmother this person has a rule, that is never for the family you embroidery, but after you were born, she broke this rule.”
Amber’s mind instantly came up with something that came out of her mouth, “Swaddling …”
“That’s right.” Trenton saw that she knew this and smiled more kindly, “Your grandmother broke her own rules in order to welcome your birth and embroidered a swaddling cloth for you, when you were taken away, you were wrapped in this swaddling cloth at that time, that was your grandmother stitch by stitch, spent ten months to embroider you personally, at that time she was already seventy years old, her eyes were no longer working and The first time I saw you, I was so happy when you arrived that I picked up the needle and thread again and embroidered the swaddling clothes in ten months with my eyes that I couldn’t see clearly, in fact, according to the normal embroidery progress, I couldn’t finish embroidering a swaddling clothes in ten months.”
This is something that Amber does not dispute.
Although she does not know how to embroider, she knows how difficult it is.
A palm-sized purse would take two or three months to embroider if it was done with the most skilled embroidery hand, let alone a swaddling sheet that big.
“Then she …”
Seems to know what Amber is going to ask, Trenton sighed, “Your grandmother in order to use that swaddling clothes after you were born, so she stayed up all night every other night, finally finished embroidering the swaddling clothes after you were born, but she also collapsed because of this, very sick, her body is not very good, and her eyes are almost completely blind.”
Amber’s pupils contracted, “How … How …”
At this moment, Amber’s heart couldn’t tell you how hard it was.
She had not met The old Mrs. Gardner, nor did she have any impression of the old Mrs. Gardner before that, when she heard Jared say that The old Mrs. Gardner was unsmiling and very majestic.
She also thought The old Mrs. Gardner was a very mean and heartless person, and Trenton would be so bad, is it because of The old Mrs. Gardner.
But now that she had heard what The old Mrs. Gardner had done for herself, she suddenly didn’t dare to think so.
An old lady, risking serious illness and blindness to stay up late and embroider swaddling clothes for her soon-to-be-born granddaughter, just by that, you can tell that this old lady is definitely not what she thinks she is.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
On the contrary, she really is what Trenton said, a mean looking old lady on the outside, but actually a soft and kind one on the inside.
That swaddling clothes, is that old lady, the biggest blessing and the best gift to her, the granddaughter.
Amber lowered her eyes and clenched her fists, her heart very sad, “And then what? She … Is she well?”
Trenton shook his head, “No, after the collapse, her health is getting worse and worse, often bedridden, but it is normal, she suffered too much because of her identity when she was young, her body has long collapsed, can persist until the seventy-something years before completely collapsed, is already a miracle, in fact, your grandmother also knows very well that her body is dying, so that is why so desperately for you The reason is that she doesn’t want her to run out one day and not even have a gift ready for her granddaughter.”
Amber bit her lip, “I … I don’t even deserve her do I?”
“Don’t say that.” Jared gently patted her shoulder, “To The old Mrs. Gardner, you are her granddaughter, the continuation of her bloodline, and her most anticipated offspring, everything about you is worth it to her, otherwise she wouldn’t have fought so hard, you are in her heart, the best there is.”
“Mr. Farrell is right.” Trenton also nodded, “Your grandmother she is incredibly looking forward to your birth, since your mother is pregnant with you, I often see your grandmother’s face with a smile, you know before that, your grandmother has not smiled for almost a dozen years, and your grandmother also knows that her health is not good, maybe one day she will die, that’s why she did it, and you should not feel sorry for your Grandma. ”
Amber closed her eyes and a tear fell, for the old lady she had never met but loved so much.
“You just said … I look a lot like her, is that true?” Amber’s eyes were red as she looked at Trenton.
Trenton hmmed, “Really, I don’t have to lie to you, your side face looks exactly like your grandmother’s, and by the way, I have the picture here.”
With that, Trenton took his phone and tapped it a few times, “Here is a picture of your grandmother when she was alive, do you want to see it?”
Amber’s mouth dropped open, not knowing whether to look or not.
Because she had never seen The old Mrs. Gardner before, she suddenly had no courage or guts to look at her picture first.
“Take a look.” Jared looked at Amber, “The old Mrs. Gardner wasn’t like them, she treated you with pure love and never hurt you, you should see it.”
Amber was moved by the talk and walked towards Trenton.
Or, in fact, she herself inwardly also want to see, just too much middle grudge, so that she does not know what to do.
But this time there is someone to stand up for her, she naturally knows exactly how to choose.
