Su Xiaowan followed her aunt out of the room with doubts in her mind, yet at the moment of leaving, she could still hear laughter from the room, all centered around the elderly.
But as soon as she stepped out, Su Xiaowan felt her aunt's sorrow and distress; turning her head, she saw her aunt shedding tears pitter-patter.
Feeling anxious and not understanding why, Su Xiaowan hurriedly asked, "Auntie, what's wrong? What happened? Is it Grandpa?"
"Is his health failing? Is there any news from Cousin Yongyi?"
Upon hearing this, her aunt wiped away her tears and pulled Su Xiaowan to a long bench a little farther away, choking back sobs as she said, "People get old, and such a day is always inevitable. Xiao Wan, try not to take it too hard."
