157 The Fortune of This World 17
Although she had never had any relevant experience, she was more or less aware that her behavior just now might not have been appropriate, especially in such a special situation. A slight mistake could have caused irreparable harm to herself as a girl.
As time went by, he gradually noticed some subtle things, which made him feel a pang of regret deep in his heart.
However, his regret did not stem from questioning his decision to give the bracelet to his granddaughter-in-law. Rather, he regretted that he had handed over this family heirloom so hastily that it might have put unnecessary psychological pressure on the kind and sensitive girl.
Whenever he thought of this, Old Master Mo would feel an indescribable discomfort and guilt.
“Wife, tell me, did I really do something wrong? Maybe I shouldn’t have given the bracelet to that girl so soon! I could clearly sense that the girl wasn’t really willing to accept this generous gift.”
Moreover, when she's with us, she always unconsciously reveals a sense of distance, though it's improved a lot compared to the beginning, but... "Old Master Mo frowned slightly and worriedly confided to his wife beside him.
Hearing her husband's words, Grandma Mo gently patted the back of his hand and softly comforted him, "Old man, don't blame yourself too much. As you said, things are much better than before."
You have to understand, the hardships this child has endured are unimaginable to most people. First, she was cruelly hurt by her own parents, and then she grew up in such a harsh environment for so long. How can you expect her to easily open her heart to others? Especially strangers like us who suddenly entered her life.
At this point, Grandma Mo paused slightly, a fleeting hint of guilt flashing in her eyes, before continuing, "Actually, when it comes to this matter..."
Before she could finish speaking, Grandma Mo's voice involuntarily lowered, clearly indicating that she was also filled with deep regret for the past and strong dissatisfaction with the Zhou family's actions.
In this incident, the only person who truly suffered was that poor child.
Regardless of whether their actions were intentional or unintentional, the innocent child ultimately suffered pain from their biological parents because of them.
The fact that they were able to refrain from taking any extreme actions against the Mohists is already quite tolerant and magnanimous.
"Although the mistakes made by our Mo family can be described as not being very serious, we do bear some responsibility. If we hadn't taken the initiative to go to them, the Zhou family probably wouldn't have targeted this child."
The child, who had been eagerly anticipating love and care from her parents, ultimately discovered that this expectation had turned into a sharp blade that deeply wounded her heart.
A child who desperately longed for the love of his parents and relatives only to realize in the end that all his beautiful fantasies were nothing but an illusion.
Even more perplexing is that her biological parents not only showed no joy at her existence, but also displayed a clear rejection of her.
