When Si Hexuan found out his grandma had moved to the orphanage, he was speechless. If Grandpa and Dad knew Grandma had moved to the orphanage, would they be furious at him?
Xia Xiao also tried to persuade her, but couldn't get Madam Si to come back. She felt that her family no longer needed her. Her son was established and her grandchildren were grown and no longer needed her care. As for Mr. Si, he had hurt her feelings, and she didn't want to return.
Gradually, Xia Xiao came to understand Madam Si's feelings. She was just a lonely old woman, truly feeling isolated.
Madam Si also felt that she was just like one of the orphaned children, unwanted. She felt happier here, less oppressed.
In plain terms, the long-term conflict between Madam Si and Mr. Si hadn't eased. Having only sons who were always busy did not provide the caring presence a daughter might offer, and the daughters-in-law were another layer removed, so Madam Si had no one to share her feelings with.
