Back For My Daughter

"Good morning Sweetheart."

Upon seeing the bright and beaming smile on Little Jia's lips, the sadness that she had been feeling after thinking about leaving turned into nothing.

'It is right, my Jia is so happy, can't I just do this for her.'

Ning Wei's conflicted thoughts were arranged properly as she didn't feel as bad as before.

No matter how much she would miss Ye Qian but she also knew that after not meeting or seeing him for a long, this thought would also get into the back of her head just like any old memory and this was the only thing she could think of as of now.

But what she didn't know was that whatever she was thinking was not possible now.

Maybe it might have if she had not been here for 2 days, but with what she had experienced in these days it was as hard as breaking a diamond for her to forget thinking about Ye Qian.

Little Jia's hairs were a bit wet as it appeared as Grandma Yan had showered her.

There was a small towel rolled around her as she giggled.

"Hehe."

"Alright wait till I dry her in a moment."

Saying that Grandma Yan went back to Little Jia while holding another towel and started rubbing her hair.

"Thank you, Grandma."

After a minute of thorough drying of hairs, until not even a drop of water was left on Little Jia's hair, Grandma Yan stopped and started drying her body.

After being completely dried without any drop on her body, Little Jai thanked Grandma Yan while giving her a light peck.

"You cheeky little girl."

Grandma Yan grinned and pinched her tiny nose.

"Alright now, go with your Mom. She will help you dress up."

Saying that Grandma Yan pointed at Ning Wei who was looking at the two for the whole time with a dazed look.

She also used to bathe Jia daily but there were only a few rare times when she saw her so much energetic and happy.

Though she felt a bit dejected with this, she was happier to see her daughter have such happiness in her life.

Ning Wei knew that with her being the only person in Little Jia's life, she won't ever get close to others and that was also what made her feel worried.

Little Jia had very few friends due to this and her personality, though she was smart and sensible, she was still not able to show herself in front of others.

"Yes, Grandma."

The little girl nodded like a chick pecking on grains and sued to her mother, Ning Wei who was sitting at the corner of the bed while she had Little Jia's school dress beside her.

"Mom, how do I look?"

With a cheerful smile, Little Jia as hed while hugging Ning Wei.

"Just like my little princess."

A warm smile appeared on Ning Wei's face as she ran her hand all over Little Jia's face and hair as if she was feeling her.

Her eyes turned a bit moist but they were because of joy and not sadness.

She planted a light kiss on Little Jia's head and then started wearing clothes to Little Jia.

Grandpa Xiao had walked out of the bedroom as soon as Ning Wei entered and didn't want to meddle in the affairs of the woman.

The old couple had already gotten ready much before and Grandam Yan was just waiting for Little Jia to wake up.

She had thought that the little girl would wake up at about 8 but much to her disbelief she was already woken up when Grandma Yan was in the bathroom.

All this time, Little Jia was talking with Grandpa Xiao, whom she found just like her Papa.

At first, the little girl was a bit afraid of Grandpa Xiao since he only had a blank face and would rarely talk, but when she woke up only to find, Grandpa Xiao was sitting beside her head while continuing to pat her head she felt like talking to her Grandpa.

And so the pair of Grandfather and Granddaughter had a lively talk while Grandpa Xiao told her a lot of jokes and a few small stories.

The little girl was attracted to her Grandpa's stories and jokes so much that she felt that her Grandpa was a lot funnier than her Papa.

But right after Grandma Yan walked out, Grandpa Xiao stopped and started reading a newspaper.

The little girl was also confused as to why her Grandpa who was so comical and lively suddenly quietened.

But then she thought of how her Papa won't speak much in front of Aunt Meng or her Mom and understood.

"Grandpa and Papa are so similar to each other!"

That was the only thought in her mind at that time when her grandmother called her for bathing.

Little Jia was happy that her Grandma was going to bathe her.

It nearly took 30 minutes long just to bathe, not only did her Grandma bathe her but also used some simple massage while saying.

"See how skinny my little grandchild is, I will give you some massage to get your bones to develop quickly."

Though the massage was for a short time, the girl felt better after warm water was poured on her body.

She not only felt energetic but also much happier.

The massage which Grandma Yan did to Little Jia was nothing much but a simple message which was given to toddlers to redirect their bones and was widely used in the villages.

That was an old practice that would strengthen the body of a baby with the nourishment of a few oils and herbs.

Grandma Yan had done this to Little Qiqi when she was also a little baby, but thinking that Ning Wei would never have known about such things, Grandma Yan didn't want Little Jia to be any weak.

And though Little Jia had already passed the age to get a massage, she still knew of a few other methods which might be helpful for the little girl's body.
