Chapter 4460
“I’ve been so busy lately I haven’t had time to go back and visit Grandma,” Serenity said. “She’s doing okay overall, but she’s getting older. Like most elderly folks, she has some health issues. The family doctor checks her regularly and gives her medicine to help her recover.”
She sighed lightly. “But these days, Grandma’s becoming more and more like a child. She refuses to take her medicine, so I have to coax her every day. When she found out I was coming to Eaglioncile, she wanted to come with me, but your big brother talked her out of it. She’s not as strong as she used to be.”
Serenity wished the old lady could live a long, healthy life—like Mr. Jimenez, who passed away just after turning 100. That was what you called a peaceful passing.
“Grandma’s worried about your love life,” Serenity added. “She says she doesn’t have the energy anymore to go around looking for wives for her grandsons. She picked out wives for your six older brothers, but she didn’t get to do it for you, or for the eighth and ninth. She said if you three don’t get married, she won’t be able to rest easy—even after she’s gone to see Grandpa.”
“She told me, and so did my second uncle and aunt, to talk to you directly. You’re 31 now. It’s time to think about your future. Isn’t there anyone suitable in Eaglioncile? Second Aunt said the girl doesn’t have to come from a big family. As long as she’s decent and kind, that’s enough.”
“We set up blind dates for you, but you always say you’re too busy to show up.”
