Married at First Sight Chapter 4484
The old lady complained about her great-grandchildren being noisy, but the elderly people around her laughed and said, “The old lady just enjoys a lively atmosphere. She’s truly blessed. If we had seven or eight great-grandchildren making noise around us, we’d be smiling in our dreams.”
Though she complained, the truth was that she loved it.
She often called Su Nan, asking him to send over his second child, along with Young Master Su’s son. Young Master Su’s child, a little over two years old, hadn’t started kindergarten yet and was very energetic.

Knowing how much the old lady loved a lively environment, Su Teng frequently sent his son over, sometimes along with the retired head of the Su family and his wife. Now that Su Teng had taken over as the family head, he was no longer just “Young Master Su.”
At Youyou Villa, the sound of children laughing and playing could be heard every day.
The Zhan family had seven great-grandchildren, three of whom were in kindergarten. But since it was summer break, they were all at home. With so many kids together, even the best-behaved siblings would end up bickering and quarreling.
The old lady laughed.
She asked Serenity, “How is Old Seven doing? That rascal only came back for Chinese New Year and left again right after. He hasn’t returned since. Ask him if he’s forgotten his grandmother!”
“Grandma, Old Seven is very busy. How could he possibly forget you? He asked about you as soon as he saw us.”
“He’s taking the kids out to play right now. I’ll remind him to call you later.”
The old lady gave a playful snort. “That’s more like it. Beibei is so fond of her Seventh Uncle. Even though she hasn’t seen him for half a year, she still remembers him.”
“We video chat regularly, so she still remembers. She’s got a pretty good memory,” Serenity replied.
The old lady sighed, “Ah, Beibei’s out playing, so I can’t see her for now. I miss her terribly. As soon as you left, I started thinking about her. I wish I could cling to her like a pendant on her thigh—wherever she goes, I’d follow.”
Serenity smiled and said, “Grandma, we’ll only be here for ten days or half a month. We’ll be back before you know it.”
If the old lady weren’t so advanced in age, she would definitely follow them out.
The family has been paying more and more attention to her. Ever since the passing of the Jun family’s matriarch, the entire Zhan family has treated their old lady like both an ancestor and a living Buddha.
Everything is going well—except that she can no longer travel long distances.
If she wants to go out, her grandson must accompany her.
He’s still a grandson, not a son. Her own sons have aged into their senior years as well, and Zachary’s generation is no longer comfortable leaving elder care entirely to their parents.
The Jun family’s matriarch had the famed doctor Cheng Lingling looking after her health. But when the time came, even the best medical skills couldn’t pull her back from the grasp of the King of Hell.
She passed peacefully in her sleep, without any major illness. In Cheng Lingling’s words, she simply died of old age.
Although Mrs. Jun lived to a ripe old age, her death still brought deep sorrow to the Jun family. They had believed she would live to a hundred, just like Old Master Fei.
Now, the entire Zhan family is increasingly concerned about their old lady. In the past, Zachary and his family rarely had weekends off and seldom visited the villa.
These days, they decline all social engagements and personal plans on weekends just to drive back and spend time with their grandmother.
Every day spent with her is a gift.
Better to cherish her now than to regret it when she’s gone.
“Not seeing Beibei for even an hour feels long to me, let alone ten days or half a month. Ah, I’m old and useless now—I just can’t travel so far with you anymore.”
“Grandma, you’re doing just fine. Let me tell you, Old Seven has a mortal enemy here—a woman two years younger than him, the daughter of the Lan Group. Her name is Lan Ruoruo.”
