Xia Lian stood in the bathroom, standing in front of the mirror. Looking at her reflection, clearly aged and ashen to the point of being unrecognizable, her heart was filled with indescribable sorrow.
She reached out to wipe away the condensation on the mirror and felt momentarily lost. Then tears fell again; how had she ended up like this!
Xia Lian clutched her heart, squatting on the floor, holding her head and crying bitterly.
When Xia Lian came out of the bathroom, Grandma had already tidied up the entire house inside and out. Turning around to see Xia Lian, who was also cleaned up, she showed her first smile since entering the house.
"A woman should pamper and dress up herself!" Grandma pointed at herself, "Look at me, at my age, I still know how to groom myself, buying a piece of clothing now and then. You're still young, why don't you cherish yourself? If you don't appreciate yourself, who will?"
