  Chu Xiyu made breakfast for her grandmother early in the morning. He put his schoolbag on his back and called his grandmother three or four times downstairs, but she didn't respond. Chu Xiyu was a little worried, so he quickly put down his schoolbag and ran up to the second floor, knocking on her grandmother's chest. Closed door.

  "Grandma, are you up?"

  There was silence inside the door.

  Chu Xiyu knocked harder and called, "Grandma?"

  The room was silent for more than ten seconds before grandma's hoarse voice came out. She slowly walked to the door with her shoes on, "It's so early in the morning! Why are you making such a noise, Qu Qingshan? You didn't see me..."

  The door made a sour creaking sound and opened a narrow crack. Through the crack, Chu Xiyu vaguely saw the red light coming from grandma's room and a cluster of bright red candlelight.

  Grandma actually lit candles in the bedroom.

  But Chu Xiyu only saw a little bit, and her grandmother quickly walked out of the room and quickly closed the door with her hands behind her back.

  When she saw that the person at the door was Chu Xiyu, there was a clear flash of surprise in her eyes. She stared at him with lifeless eyes for a long time, and was slightly startled, as if she had just recovered and turned her head.

  "What did you ask me to do?"

  Chu Xiyu was numb at the sight, and he said, "It's time for breakfast, grandma."

  Grandma walked to the bathroom slowly, her steps skewed, "I know."

  ...

  It was still early, and Chu Xiyu was worried about her grandma, so she simply stayed and had breakfast with her before leaving.

  He got the bowl for his grandmother and saw how delicious she was eating. He asked hesitantly, "Grandma, who is the Qu Qingshan you just mentioned...?"

  "What are you asking about like a kid?" Grandma lit the fuse with anger on her face. "Eat your food well and go to school as soon as possible. You are almost in high school and you are still asking questions like this."

  "Grandma, I am already in high school. I am a senior this year." Chu Xiyu was a little worried about her and asked, "Did you remember it wrong?"

  "Hmm...?" Grandma was stunned and murmured to herself, "It's the third year of high school...the third year of high school."

  Chu Xiyu frowned, raised the back of his hand and gently touched her grandmother's forehead, and said, "Grandma, are you feeling unwell? Let's go to the hospital to check it out."

  "Don't go!" Grandma slapped Chu Xiyu's hand away and said angrily: "If you are not sick, go to the hospital. I am an old fool, not a disease. You will be the same when you get older!"

  "Okay, we're not going, we're not going." Chu Xiyu followed her grandmother's back and said, "Let's eat first, grandma."

  Grandma frowned and took a few breaths before continuing to drink porridge. Her appetite in the morning is getting bigger and bigger, and she can usually drink three or four bowls of porridge.

  The atmosphere was quiet for a while.

  After drinking half a bowl of porridge, she lowered her head and said, "...Qu Qingshan is your grandfather's name."

  Chu Xiyu paused, a little surprised: "It turns out to be grandpa's name."

  She probably wanted her husband to die.
