Shanghai Jiao Tong University's future entrustment app: I will take my motherland flying.

Chapter 218 Because he knew that from that moment on, he had lost his mother.
That voice is...

Tang Xiaochen had a vague guess in her mind, but dared not open her eyes, for fear that it was just her imagination.

But she couldn't resist the longing in her heart and slowly opened her eyes.

At that very moment, the kind and gentle old man with a smile on his lips caught her eye.

When she met those kind and gentle eyes, Tang Xiaochen's tears flowed.

"Grandma, are you here to pick up Xiaochen?" Tang Xiaochen didn't have much strength left, and speaking at this moment took all her strength.

Even so, it couldn't hide the joy in her eyes.

This joy even temporarily masked the deathly pallor that had already crept into her eyes.

The dean's withered yet warm hands gently stroked Tang Xiaochen's forehead and hair. She whispered, "Yes, Grandma has come to pick up Xiaochen."

"Grandma..." Tang Xiaochen wanted to reach out and hold the dean's hand, but she didn't have the strength to lift her hand.

The headmistress seemed to know her intention and took her hand first.

Tang Xiaochen looked at her grandmother and said with difficulty but still trying her best, "Grandma, I listened to you. I slept well, ate well, and took my medicine properly..."

Back then, when the headmistress was on her deathbed, she promised her that she would take good care of herself.

She has accomplished that in the past five years.

She is here, living well.

"Grandma knows that our Xiaochen is an obedient child."

The praise from the dean brought a smile to Tang Xiaochen's face.

"Grandma, I know you've come to pick me up."

"Grandma, I'm so tired, so tired, I have no strength left. Can I take a nap?"

Those around her, upon hearing her words, realized what was happening, and tears silently streamed down their faces.

The headmistress's gaze remained fixed on Tang Xiaochen, her eyes filled with love and gentleness. "Of course you can. Xiaochen, if you're tired, go to sleep. Don't worry, Grandma will stay with you."

That's good, that's good...

Tang Xiaochen silently responded in her heart.

She glanced around at the older brothers and sisters present one last time, and finally, comforted by the headmistress, slowly closed her eyes.

The little hand that was held by the headmistress also lost its last bit of strength.

"Xiaochen..." Those around her realized what was happening and couldn't help but burst into tears.

It was at this moment that the headmistress also stood up and scanned everyone present.

"Children, it's time for me to leave with Xiaochen." She was created by Tang Xiaochen, and now that Tang Xiaochen's consciousness has disappeared, she too must vanish.

"You have a long road ahead of you."

"Grandma wishes you all a bright future, and that you will be safe, happy, and joyful."

As those words fell, just as she had appeared at the beginning, she too vanished with the dissipation of light and shadow.

But in the end...

Tang Xiaochen, the wish of this child has finally been fulfilled.

In her final moments in this world, she was happy and without regrets.

Because her closest and dearest grandmother, the headmistress, came to pick her up.
-
In Changping County, an elderly man in his eighties who was a scavenger used half of his savings to buy the Mengmeng AI Dream Maker.

At this moment, he slowly knelt down in front of a grave.

The old man's hair was already gray, his body was thin, his face was full of wrinkles, and his eyes were cloudy and full of tears.

His gaze fell on the grave before him, his eyes filled with longing.

Simply because his mother was lying in that grave.

The old man's name is Li Kangshun.

His mother gave him this name, and its meaning is self-evident.

She simply hoped that her son would have a healthy and fulfilling life.

But in the end, he still disappointed his mother.

"Mother, your son is suffering..." "They all don't want me, they all despise me."

"One by one, they all drove me away."

"Mother, I miss you so much."

The old man wept uncontrollably amidst his sobs.

Li Kangshun lost his father in an accident when he was young, and his mother raised him single-handedly.

He knew his mother's hand on his.

He also thought that when he grew up and became successful, he would take good care of his mother and repay her kindness.

Unfortunately, his mother passed away when he was in his early twenties and had only been married for a year.

Li Kangshun was deeply saddened at that time.

Because he knew that from that moment on, he had lost his mother.

No one will ever love him unconditionally again.

But life must go on.

Later, Li Kangshun and his wife had three sons and a daughter. His wife was in poor health and unable to work, so the family's livelihood depended entirely on Li Kangshun.

To ensure his wife and children had enough to eat and could go to school, he did all sorts of dirty and tiring work when he was young.

They persevered day and night, even when they were sick or injured.

Because he knew that he was the pillar of this family, the hope of his wife and children, and he absolutely could not fall.

But he's human too.

There were times when I felt wronged, sad, tired, and exhausted.

At that time, he could only hide away and wipe his tears, not daring to let anyone know.

Because he knew that from the moment his mother left, no one would unconditionally accept or love him anymore.

He felt wronged, but he could no longer confide in his mother like a child.

Therefore, no matter how hard it was, he could only endure it, and no matter how wronged he was, he had nowhere to confide in.

later……

Li Kangshun's hard work and dedication finally brought a better life to his wife and children.

The children were able to eat their fill, study, and eventually go on to university. My wife was also able to buy the pretty clothes she liked.

Later, Li Kangshun worked hard to earn money, taking out loans to ensure that his sons could get married and have their own families. Even his daughters received a decent dowry, though not a large one.

only……

Life was still too cruel for Li Kangshun.

As Li Kangshun grew older, he could no longer work and could no longer create value.

People say that raising children is for old age security. He thought that he had done so much for his children when he was young, so now that he was old, they would take care of him in his old age.

Actually, he didn't ask for much; all he needed was a place to stay and food to eat.

He can also help take care of his grandchildren.

Unfortunately, he saw something.

What he saw was that his four children, who now lived in the city, all despised him, none of them were willing to support him, and they even took away the money from the demolition of their old home, leaving him with nowhere to live.

As for his wife, she passed away the year before last.

Having been evicted and being elderly, Li Kangshun had nowhere to live.

They can only wander.

He doesn't understand culture or law, and doesn't know whether he should sue his children and ask them for alimony.

He lived a life of homelessness, scavenging for trash and collecting recyclables...

This period of wandering lasted for nearly ten years.

When I'm tired, I just find a place to sleep. When I'm sick, I don't have money to go to the hospital, so I can only tough it out.
