“Grandma, don’t worry, Ellison said. “We’ve got under floor heating and a whole–home temperature control system. You won’t feel cold, and no drafts can get in Ellison walked to the foyer and tapped the wall–mounted screen to activate the smart home system.

“Isolde, come in quickly,” Joycelyn said. “I’ve got a puppy, and it’s so much fun.” She turned around and picked up Rocky. who had been following her.

“Oh dear,” Isolde immediately exclaimed when she saw the furry little bundle.

“Ellison hates keeping pets the most, always complaining about germs and how dirty they are, Isolde continued. “He lets you keep a puppy. Looks like this brat’s principles aren’t set in stone after all. She extended her hand to Rocky.

Isolde liked little pets too. They were obedient and clingy, just like raising a child. Having one around was a kind of comfort. Joycelyn placed Rocky in Isolde’s arms and said, “Its name is Rocky. I found it as a stray. At first, he didn’t want to keep it, but he agreed eventually. He even hired a dog trainer to train it. The puppy is very well–behaved now,”

When it came to Rocky, Joycelyn spoke about it like she was introducing her own baby, her words filled with love.

Before Isolde came here, she had her doubts, but she was not worried at all now.

I raised my grandson, so I’m very familiar with his temperament, she thought. If he didn’t love Joycelyn, there’s no way he’d break his own principles

Holding Rocky, Isolde looked at her grandson, her voice filled with disdain as she said, “You rascal really love Joycelyn. 1 used to have a kitten, and he despised me for ages. Every time he came to see me, he stayed far away from it. Hmph!”

She then smiled and negotiated with Ellison. “Now that Joycelyn can raise a dog, does that mean I can also raise a kitten to play with?”

Clearly taking Isolde’s side, Joycelyn said, “Yes. You can raise whatever pet you like. If he doesn’t allow it, I’ll deal with him for you.”

This made Isolde happy, as if she now had a strong backer. “Alright,” she said. “At the end of the day, it’s my granddaughter- in–law who dotes on me.”

Ellison turned on the equipment and did not interject. In this situation, he couldn’t really interject anyway.

“Yes, she’s your precious granddaughter–in–law, and I’m your cheap grandson,” Ellison said, his deep voice filled with helplessness and compromise.

Although they were from two generations, the atmosphere at home was especially blissful and warm.
