Sophie was not too surprised to hear this from Grandpa Meng.
The last time she went to Tianhai, she already knew about the friendship between the Meng family and the Wu family.
Moreover, she also met Meng Jiao's uncle at the Wu family's banquet, so Sophie was not surprised that Grandpa Meng knew her grandmother.
She was just a little surprised at Grandpa Meng's attitude change at this moment.
Judging from Grandpa Meng's tone, the other party should be familiar with Grandma.
But she is a junior after all, and she has not been with the Wu family for many years. She doesn't know the inside story, so she can only deal with it silently.
Grandpa Meng didn't say much, but asked, "You must have never met your grandmother, right?"
Sophie shook her head, "I have been living in Tianzhou since I was a child. At that time, my mother had lost contact with the Wu family, and then..."
Grandpa Meng sighed, "Your mother... it's such a pity."
"Your mother's personality is like your grandmother's, and so are yours. They both have the same fiery temper."
"I am unwilling to bow my head in the face of power, and I am unwilling to even make the slightest compromise."
Sophie hadn't even heard much about her mother, let alone her grandmother's deeds.
From Grandpa Meng’s tone, Grandma must have been a magnificent and extraordinary woman when she was young.
Otherwise, there is Mr. Chen in the front and Mr. Meng in the back.
How could it happen by chance? Because he is a person who has passed away, so he has more care?
Sure enough, Grandpa Meng changed the topic and said, "I was unable to help with your mother's matter back then. I have been deeply sorry for it all these years."
"So even if I don't have this relationship with Jiaojiao, I will still help you."
"My attitude just now was that I didn't know what was going on, and Jiaojiao didn't explain it to me."
"I want to sort out the relationship between the three of you, so I'm trying to test it out. I hope you don't mind."
Sophie stood up and said, "I'm sorry, Grandpa Meng. I misunderstood just now, and my words were so disrespectful..."
Grandpa Meng waved his hand, "I admire your attitude very much, neither humble nor overbearing."
"Actually, the Meng family should apologize for this matter, on behalf of Jiaojiao. Hmm."
"No matter what the reason is, she, a girl, rashly got involved in your marriage with Zhao Dong and had such a huge impact on you personally. She cannot escape the blame for this matter."
"Actually, Jiaojiao is also a poor child. I am not excusing her by saying this, but this child is indeed suffering."
"She has suffered from the estrangement between her father and me since she was a child. Over the years, she has been caught between her own ideals and the expectations of the Meng family."
"Jiaojiao probably hasn't told you about her mother, right?"
Sophie shook her head, vaguely hearing that there was something more to this matter.
Grandpa Meng sighed heavily, "Jiaojiao's mother was a singer back then. She was very popular in the music industry, won numerous awards, and has a bright future."
"Later, she fell in love with my son Meng Zhenxi at first sight, and then retired from the music circle and changed her career to become a music teacher."
"Zhenxi also gave up medicine and went into business because of her delicate mother."
"It is precisely because of this that this matter has become a worry for me over the years!"
"Later, I always wanted to make up for the regrets of the past with Jiaojiao."
"This child Jiaojiao not only inherited her father's medical talent, but also inherited her mother's musical talent."
"If I could have let go of my obsession and supported Jiaojiao to go her own way, maybe the tragedy that happened later would not have happened."
"Jiaojiao likes music, but the Meng family wants her to go into medicine."
"Therefore, only Jiaojiao's mother has always supported her music dream since she was a child."
"So, in Jiaojiao's mind, mother has always had a very important status!"
"I have learned about what happened in the past few days. In order to help Zhao Dong, Jiaojiao offended the Wei family, so that Zhenxi was wrongfully imprisoned."
"My delicate mother passed away because of this."
"The death of her mother was a huge blow to Jiaojiao. Perhaps it was because of this incident that she had an obsession in her heart."
Having said this, Grandpa Meng stood up from the sofa and bent his waist, "Xiao Fei, there is something I don't know whether to talk about or not."
Sophie was startled and hurriedly stood up, "Grandpa Meng, please don't do this. I can't bear your kindness to Amelia Su!"
"If you have anything to say, just say it, just like I promised, as long as it doesn't violate my conscience, and as long as I, Sophie, can do it, I will never refuse!"
Grandpa Meng continued, "Jiaojiao is like her mother, too idealistic."
"Literary girls always like to pursue some illusory things, and always like to regard some things they can't get as lifelong regrets."
"I believe in your vision, and I also believe that Zhao Dong is not the kind of man who flirts with women."
"So I know that the biggest problem between the three of you is Jiaojiao."
"It's because she didn't handle her emotions well, and it's also because she didn't handle the balance between herself and Zhao Dong well, that's why she caused so much trouble to you and Zhao Dong."
"But I know that Jiaojiao is kind at heart, and she has no intention of destroying your family."
"After this incident, Jiaojiao has repaired her relationship with the Meng family. I will also advise her and help her embark on a path of her own."
"But Xiaofei, through the contact just now, I can see that you are a smart girl. You can see things and people accurately."
"And with your methods, I believe Jiaojiao is no match for you."
"Although Jiaojiao doesn't mean to ruin your marriage, I know something about you and Zhao Dong."
"With Jiaojiao's status, it's easy for others to make a fuss about her."
"And an idealistic girl like her can easily be taken advantage of, and can easily go astray without realizing it."
"I mean if, I mean if."
"What if Jiaojiao takes the wrong path in the future, or inadvertently hurts you and Zhao Dong?"
"I'm here to apologize, I'm here to make amends, and I can also take her back to the Meng family."
"But I hope that for the sake of me helping Su Qing today, you can let her go, okay?"
Sophie stood there and Grandpa Meng spoke like this. What could she say?
Let’s not talk about the old relationship between Grandpa Meng and Grandma. Let’s just say that Grandpa Meng even gave up his future medical career for Su Qing.
What else could she do?
Refuse?
She can't say this!
At that moment, Sophie could only nod and said: "Okay, Grandpa Meng, please don't worry."
"If one day in the future, Meng Jiao is on the opposite side of me, I can let her go!"
"But there is a premise. This premise is that she only hurts me."
"What if she dares to hurt my husband, hurt my family?"
"I'm sorry, I can't be that generous, and I hope you can understand my situation!"
Grandpa Meng felt as if a big stone had fallen from his heart, "Your words are enough!"
"As expected of her granddaughter, she is courageous and responsible."
"You, my child, deserve the best in the world!"
"Besides, your grandpa and I are very good friends. If you want to know anything, you can come to me at any time."
"If possible, I really hope you and Jiaojiao can become friends."
