Chapter 45: Chapter 45 Grandma

Fan Yue and her husband, Cui Pei, celebrated their second wedding anniversary with the significant act of moving into a new home. Because Cui Pei liked houses with a yard, they jumped at the opportunity to rent part of an old courtyard house. It was something of a housewarming celebration, so Tu Hengsha brought a housewarming gift too.

Fan Yue’s new home was in an alley with a strange name, one that Tu Hengsha hadn’t managed to remember. Holding a Bangbangtang, she navigated through the network of alleys using the address Fan Yue had given her. After three laps, she finally saw a small alley’s entrance marked with a rusty bronze plaque: Yangrou Geda Alley. Due to the age of the sign, the words were mostly corroded away. She had to guess and check to match it with the address she held.

The alley was narrow and in disrepair, a bit different from the way Fan Yue had described her new home. She thought she’d walk into a courtyard from a period drama, yet these faded doors and windows, and the randomly nailed wooden slats, indeed marred the scene. Some houses had been repaired, but the hastily painted mud walls and unattractive paint jobs would have been better left untouched.

As she looked for the right house number, she heard an "Oh dear" from behind her.

She turned around to see a grandma had fallen on the ground, her two large shopping bags spilling fruits and vegetables everywhere.

She quickly ran over, put the Bangbangtang down, and helped the grandma up, asking, "Grandma, are you okay? Should I call an ambulance for you?"

"No need, no need!" The grandma waved her hands repeatedly. "I’m fine, just getting old and useless, can’t even carry two bags!"

Tu Hengsha saw that the bags were indeed heavy. She would find it difficult to carry them herself, one on each shoulder!

The grandma stood up, took a couple of steps, and her legs seemed steady. It appeared she truly was fine. Relieved, Tu Hengsha helped pick up the items, tied a string to Bangbangtang, and lifted the two bags. "Grandma, I’m headed to this alley too. Let me help you!"

"No need, no need! I can manage! They’re heavy!" The grandma insisted.

"It’s all right! Let’s go, Grandma!" She slung the two bags over her shoulders, grabbed Bangbangtang, and urged the grandma to walk.

The grandma had no choice but to accept, repeatedly thanking her, remarking, "You’re such a kind girl. Nowadays, they say you shouldn’t help an old person who’s fallen!"

Tu Hengsha laughed softly, not having even thought about that. "Grandma, why did you buy so many things?"

The grandma smiled, her face crinkling like a blooming flower. "My grandson is coming to see me today. I bought groceries to cook him something delicious!"

Tu Hengsha laughed, "Your grandson is lucky!"

The grandma just kept smiling, clearly very joyful, and then started to chatter about how well-behaved and accomplished her grandson was. Recognizing elderly people’s feelings, Tu Hengsha listened intently and politely expressed admiration at appropriate moments as they chatted along the way.

Before long, they arrived at a courtyard. The grandma said, "Here we are, young lady. Thank you. Why don’t you stay and have a meal with me?"

"No, thank you, Grandma. I’m headed to a friend’s house!" She remembered the address, took it out again, and showed it to the grandma. "Grandma, could you help me see where number 121 is?"

"Number 121?" The grandma paused, then laughed, "It’s my house!"

Just then, a loud call came from the courtyard, "Little Sha!"

Tu Hengsha looked up — wasn’t this the right place? Fan Yue bounced out from inside!

The grandma laughed too, "You were looking for Yueyue? What a coincidence!"
