The next day, Jiang Qiuqiu had just woken up when a message came in urgently from Ming Mei, “Qiuqiu! You’re trending!”

“Big time, you’ve really gone viral!”

“What happened?” She was still a bit puzzled.

The fermentation of the internet is always so fast.

Due to the heartfelt and humorous interaction between the poster in Jiang Qiuqiu’s circle and his grandfather, many people reposted his post to popular circles in the federation.

Parent-child relationships are an eternal topic.

Some young people, after seeing the conversation between the original poster and his grandfather, envied and said they didn’t have this treatment, that their grandparents were especially conservative and old-fashioned. They said every time they went home, they had a stern face, although they indeed didn’t get into a federal university, but it’s beyond their control… they had also tried hard before.

Their complaints were quite heartfelt, attracting the attention of many people.

The original poster of that hot post also climbed up here following his own post and passionately replied: [Actually, at first I also thought my grandfather was boring, just a conservative old man. But after reaching out to understand, I found everything was different! You can also try to understand them, maybe you’ll see a different side of them!]

The most wonderful thing is, the original poster went.

He originally wanted to make a trip and witness his own newly found journey of being scolded.

Unexpectedly—

[Maybe from the beginning, I should have explained things. I found that due to lack of communication, our views of each other are completely different. He thinks I have no plan, no solid skills, just thinking of staying in the capital, hopes I can return to the countryside, but it’s hard to say…]

[He said he used to be a drifter¹ in the Federation. It was difficult to drift back then, let alone now. My grandfather told me a lot of things. Although he doesn’t surf the star network, my mother said that my grandfather has been picking up his old profession these days and has started woodworking again. (My grandfather started out as a carpenter.) He said he wants to save up a small home for me in the Federation. I feel so guilty.]

Indeed, there are few parents’ love for their children, but the love of most parents, elders, for the younger generation is the purest and most selfless.

It’s as heavy as a mountain, as gentle as a stream, as profound as love.

For a moment, the topic of [Do you really understand your family] quickly climbed up the hot search list of the entire StarNet.

[Do you really understand your family? As an adult, do you remember your parents’ birthdays? Do you remember your grandparents’ birthdays? Do you remember the anniversaries at home? Have you accompanied your parents to see a doctor? Can you name a few important things in your parents’ lives?]

Most people are clueless when asked.

But conversely, most parents can recount everything about their children.

Many netizens feel sorry for their lack of knowledge about their parents, but suddenly contacting their parents seems like there’s nothing to say, everyone is a bit shy to speak up.

At this moment, an unknown Level 7 account came out and explained the ‘tool-making’ of the younger generation in Jiang Qiuqiu’s live stream room and the subsequent ‘treatment’ by the ‘tools’, then suggested: [If you really don’t know what to say, you can invite your parents, relatives to watch our Jiujiu live stream together.]

[You can share delicious food with your family, watch live streams while eating, and chat.]

With the suggestion, someone asked below, is the food in the live stream really delicious?

The unknown anonymous user didn’t speak, only shared a screenshot.

It turned out to be a discussion forum from some sunset-red² elderly circle.

—

¹”drifter” – In this context it refers to someone who wanders from place to place without a permanent home or job, often seeking temporary work or living arrangements. It can imply a transient or unsettled lifestyle.

²”sunset-red” – may symbolize the later stages of life, suggesting a community for older adults. It’s a poetic way to describe a group or community of elderly people.
