2074 Side Story 62: obsession with life and death
Grampy was in high spirits because he had just gotten a premium-grade Kumoko. On the other hand, Wen Xinya had been training hard in chess all these years and was already on par with Grampy. However, she was also defeated by Grampy.
Although she had never won against her grandfather in chess, she had never lost so badly in a long time as her chess skills improved. She was originally full of confidence, but now she was unwilling to admit defeat, and finally became depressed.
Wen Xinya looked at Grampy with resentment. ” Grampy, you can’t bully people like this. Let me play a few rounds with you later. It’s not good for an old man to be so competitive. ”
Wen Xinya felt that Grampy had embarrassed her because she had lost too badly. She did not tell Grampy clearly that she wanted si yiyan to help her get back at him.
Even though her chess skills were not as good as her grandfather’s.
However, si yiyan’s chess skills had surpassed his master’s.
All these years, old Mr. Mo had lost to si yiyan a few times.
Old master mo picked up his tea and took a sip. He glanced at her and said, ” “Good for you! The student has surpassed the master and it is also because of my teaching that I am proud of it. Moreover, although I lost to si yiyan in chess, how about Jing Xing not being able to beat his father in the future?”
Since young, Jing Xing had been personally raised by him and he was quite optimistic about his future potential.
Wen Xinya choked for a moment. Regardless of whether it was Grampy’s guidance that allowed si yiyan to win against him, if Jingxing were to win against si yiyan in the future, it would also be Grampy’s guidance.
Seeing her dejected look, old Mr. Mo smiled and said, ” “Just in time, I have something to tell you.”
Most women would turn into old hags after marriage. The reason was simply because they lived a mediocre life for the sake of their family life. They lived around their husband and children, and mixed around in the marketplace. They would lose their pride, their edge, and gradually fade into the crowd.
Even for those rich and powerful ladies, how many of them were living comfortably? Even if she took great care to maintain it, the vicissitudes of life still remained.
There were also a few who were like Wen Xinya, who was in her thirties and still looked radiant, energetic, calm, and elegant. She exuded the coquettishness of a young girl and did not look out of place at all. Instead, it made her look as beautiful as Jade and full of talent.
A good daughter was born from being pampered.
“Grampy, just tell me what’s the matter!” Wen Xinya asked weakly.
Losing a game of Go was not that bad.
However, she suddenly thought that not long later, even Jing Xing’s chess skills would be better than hers and she suddenly felt bad.
Old master mo thought for a moment and said: ” Jing Xing is naturally intelligent. Now that he has completed his initiation, he will soon be exposed to formal education. I want him to follow by my side and personally teach him. ”
But Jing Xing had started his initiation at the age of three and had completed it at the age of five. This child was too smart and if he was not taught diligently, it would be a mistake.
At the mention of the child, Wen Xinya’s face grew solemn and she said hesitantly, ” “But … But, Jing Xing is only five years old … Can grandfather wait for another two years?”
She naturally knew what her grandfather meant but as a mother, she always hoped that Jing Xing could be like an ordinary child and have a happy childhood, like other children, to grow up without any worries.
Old Mr. Mo put down his teacup and sighed. ” “I know what you are thinking. It is nothing more than motherly love, so even though Jingxing’s mind is mature for his age, he still insisted on sending Jingxing to kindergarten. But you have to understand that Jingxing has a photographic memory and his comprehension is extraordinary. He was born different from other children. In his eyes, the children in kindergarten are just a group of crying ghosts with runny noses and a group of idiots who only want their mothers. When other children find out that he is different, they will only treat him as an alien and isolate him.”
Actually, he was supportive of Wen Xinya’s motherly nature.
However, when Wen Xinya and Si yiyan went on a trip to yundian, he realized that jinghang was very against going to kindergarten. He only needed to think for a moment before he understood the reason.
Stunned for a moment, Wen Xinya took a long time to react. Finally, she said in a low voice, ” “I didn’t think of that.” Then, she raised her head, took a deep breath, and said, ” “You’re right. Jinghang is different from other children. He’s not suitable for formal education. From now on, I’ll leave jinghang’s education to you, Grandpa.”
Si yiyan had never been exposed to proper education and had never gone to school. Apart from the SI corporation’s traditional education, he had also received Grampy’s wholehearted guidance.
Jing Xing was talented and intelligent, so it was the best result for him to be taught by his grandfather.
Also, Grandpa is getting on in years and should look for spiritual support. Only with spiritual support can the elderly have long-term peace.
Old Mr. Mo nodded and continued, ” ” Yufei and youqing aren’t young anymore. Three-year-old children are just beginning to develop their character. They need to be properly educated. Let them stay here with me for a while! ”
Wen Xinya’s children were all exceptionally intelligent. As their elders, they were always worried that their children’s intelligence would affect their character and cause them to lose their virtue.
Keeping these two children might be a good way to train their mental fortitude.
Wen Xinya subconsciously rejected. ” how can I do that? it’s already hard enough for you to teach jinghang personally. How can you have the energy to discipline the twins? besides, the twins are stubborn by nature. I don’t want to affect Grampy’s health because of them. Don’t worry, Chen and I will take care of them. ”
Grandfather’s health was not good, and he was not as energetic as before.
Jing Xing was sensible and she was not worried about leaving him to her grandfather, but the twins were too noisy and her grandfather’s body could not take it.
” with Jingxing around, they’re rather obedient, ” old master mo said calmly. ” moreover, ninth si also agrees with it. ”
Si yiyan was a little insipid and had no problems with his education. However, he was not suitable to teach his children. As a mother, Wen Xinya was very kind and could not suppress the twins. Hence, she had to teach them.
Wen Xinya had never felt that the problem of children’s education was so complicated. She immediately said anxiously, ” “Grandpa, you’re in good health …”
Old Mr. Mo’s expression turned serious and he said in a serious tone, ” “Xinya!”
Wen Xinya’s heart skipped a beat. She could sense the seriousness in Grampy’s tone and wondered what she had done wrong to make him angry.
Old Mr. Mo sighed and said in a soft tone, ” ” Xinya, life and death are determined by fate. You can’t be too stubborn. ”
She hadn’t changed at all after all these years. Every time his body was mentioned, she would act as if she was facing a great enemy. She was originally very careful, but now she was 120% cautious.
This was not a good sign.
Eighty years old was already considered a long life, and how long one could live was up to fate. In recent years, he often felt that his strength was not in his heart, his spirit was not good, his body was not as good as before, and he had become more indifferent to life and death.
However, Wen Xinya was different.
She took his life too seriously. In recent years, she had been paying more attention to his health. Uncle Zhang, mother he, and mother Jiang were getting older and older, so Xinya decided to let them stay in the mo family. She also hired a servant who was proficient in medicine to take care of his daily life. The family also hired a family doctor and carefully selected servants in the kitchen to serve him. He had never stopped eating medicinal meals.
She was so obsessed with his life and death.
If that day really came, how would she be able to take it?
