He doesn't want to be a TikTok hero.

That afternoon, the granddaughter-in-law went to the rice fields to harvest rice, but because she was hungry, she came back early to breastfeed her baby. She saw the old lady Thuong sitting on the ground, rocking the hammock and talking to her six-month-old great-grandchild. But the baby kept listening and talking to her like a starling. She took out her phone to record the scene.

A few minutes later, Mrs. Thuong saw her granddaughter-in-law turning around and asked:

- What are you filming again, Ha? Why do you kids always take out your phones to film?

The niece smiled happily:

- I filmed the scene where you were talking to your great-grandchild. It's so beautiful, grandpa.

- That boy is so talkative, I've been talking to him all this time, making my mouth tired.

- You're my great-grandson. I'll post this clip on TikTok and it'll get thousands of views. And with just a few clips, you'll become a TikTok hero like Mr. Khien in the Trai neighborhood.

Old lady Thuong frowned in confusion:

- Hero? Mr. Khien is 90 years old and paralyzed, just sitting in bed, eating and saying he hasn't eaten yet, his children and grandchildren come to visit him and call him sir and madam, what kind of hero is that?

- His daughter-in-law filmed all sorts of things in his life and posted them on Tiktok, and got thousands of followers and views. He has become a hero.

- Speak clearly.

- That means before Mr. Khien's clip was uploaded, there were several other clips that were very famous, with a huge number of views, but now Mr. Khien's clip has the most views. People even share it with each other and laugh happily.

Old lady Thuong smiled:

- What a hero...

- I'm putting you on TikTok, I guarantee you'll become the new hero in just a few days...

Old lady Thuong waved her hand:

- Stop doing that. What's the point of entertaining people for a moment? Mr. Khien is old and doesn't know anything, so his children arbitrarily put him up like that. You have to tell that family. Before he was a commune official, he was clear-headed, lived a simple, discreet life, and was not noisy or ostentatious, but now his children and grandchildren put him up like that.

- It's also to preserve your image for a long time and let everyone know you. It's fun to watch, grandpa.

- There are many ways to maintain image, huh? The most important thing is to maintain image in people's hearts, not just by throwing old people on the internet to maintain image. Damn, the old man peeked through the door, so many confusions, bad things, and then filmed and posted them to entertain the world like this. We have to give them some advice.

- I went to give advice but my family scolded me.

- Let me go. Come in here and feed your grandchild or he'll cry again if he's hungry. And remember, I don't want to be a hero on "speed". Don't treat me as bait. You'll be in trouble.

The niece frowned:

- Yes, if you don't like being famous, that's fine. I'll keep it in the machine as a souvenir. Did you really go to Mr. Khien's house?

Old lady Thuong draped a towel over her shoulder and put on her hat:

- My distant cousin on my mother's side, I'll go talk to your children and grandchildren right away, why be shy?
