When I heard a quick knock on the door, I didn't expect it to be my daughter Wang Yan. Her anxiety made my heart tighten, after all, she was already living an ordinary life in a nearby village. I reassured her that everything would be fine, then called my husband and son and rushed her to the hospital. Fortunately, Wang Yan gave birth to a healthy boy, which filled me with joy and emotion.
However, just as I was rejoicing in this new life, an unexpected news came. My son's wife is also pregnant, and her due date is the same as that of Wang Yan. The news shocked and confused us. My husband and I exchanged glances, filled with ambivalence and anxiety.
I've been trying my best to take care of my two grandchildren, but I found that they didn't think of me as a real grandmother. Still, I took care of them without hesitation. Time flies, my grandchildren grow up, but my heart grows heavier.
One day, I heard a familiar voice, and it turned out to be Wang Yan's son who had returned. Watching him grow into a promising young man filled my heart with pride and gratification. He told me that he had been admitted to the university of his choice and wanted to study abroad. Despite some reluctance, I encouraged him to move forward.
However, just as I was excited about his future, another piece of news left me heartbroken. My son's daughter is seriously ill and in critical condition. My family and I did our best, and finally with the united efforts, the child recovered and was discharged from the hospital.
At that moment, we sat around the table, eating a steaming meal, talking and laughing. I feel extremely happy and satisfied because my family is united and we have overcome all difficulties.
