"No need, Auntie, I'm fine," the young man called Dongsheng said with a smile that was actually quite comforting, although he really was so thin that he seemed nothing but a skeleton, his cheekbones deeply sunken on both sides.
"Right, Dongsheng, come here quickly," Xiumei finally remembered something and hurriedly pulled Dongsheng by the hand.
"This is your granny, do you remember her? Your granny, who took care of you every day when you were a child."
"Granny..." Dongsheng's eyes reddened, as he seemed to recognize a familiar trace on Granny Lu's face. She was his granny, indeed. When his granny had left back then, he searched the whole village for her. When he returned home, he even asked his parents why his granny had disappeared, and got beaten by his father for it, who told him never to mention granny again.
