Jiang Wan was absorbed in writing when Aunt Li and the second son came back.

She heard some noise outside and looked up, only to find that it was already dark outside.

She was so focused on writing that she even forgot to cook at this hour.

Jiang Wan quickly put down her pen and stood up. As soon as she pushed the door open, she saw Aunt Li rolling up her sleeves to work in the kitchen.

"Auntie, let me do it. I was so engrossed in writing that I was late for dinner. I'm so sorry."

Jiang Wan was washing rice and cooking rice skillfully, and Li Shuping quickly stopped her.

"My wife has been resting at home for so many days and has completely recovered now."

"Before I was not feeling well, you took care of me. Now that I am well, it is my turn to take care of you."

Li Shuping pushed Jiang Wan out of the kitchen and started working efficiently.

Jiang Wan tried to go in and help several times but was kicked out.

The second child felt sorry for her, looked at him with sympathy, and then walked in on his own initiative.

Jiang Wan was unable to work there, but Lao Er was warmly welcomed as soon as he entered.

In the past, the second child was forced to work, and it was painful every time he worked.

Now he goes to work voluntarily and consciously, even his steps are much lighter and the smile on his face is much brighter.

He seemed to like being with Aunt Li very much, was willing to listen to her and work with her.

Aunt Li assigned him some simple and easy jobs.

She did all the difficult and tiring work herself, leaving only the assisting work for the second child.

The second child noticed her little action and just smiled secretly without saying anything.

In the past, when he was at Li Qidong's house, Li Qidong always tried his best to assign all the work to him.

If he was unwilling to do it, he would be beaten, and if the beating was so severe that his bones would be broken.

Later he was forced into a situation where he had no choice but to work honestly in order to survive.

Although he still has to work when he returns home, he does it voluntarily.

Even though it's the same work, the feeling of working voluntarily and working under pressure is different.

And Aunt Li was really nice to him and really treated him like her grandson.

His mother is also very good to him. She speaks to him in a gentle and soft voice and takes care of every detail of life.

This was the first time in his life that he enjoyed such pure maternal love.

He had been watching from the sidelines before, but is now gradually becoming willing to give.

He no longer wanted to be forced to work, but he was willing to work on his own initiative.

Jiang Wan looked at the old and the young who were busy and happy. He just smiled, shook his head and went back to the room.

She sat back at the desk, picked up the pen for a while, and then her thoughts began to flow like a spring.

She enjoys her current state and cherishes her inspiration very much.

She just wants to take advantage of her inspiration to make a big splash.

When Jiang Wan was completely immersed in it, he always felt that time passed too quickly.

She felt that she had not been writing for long when she soon smelled the fragrance of food.

She sniffed softly and wrote slower and slower.

My stomach growled twice and I realized I was hungry.

Jiang Wan forced himself to write a few more words when there was a cautious knock on the door.

The sound was soft and I knew it was the second brother knocking on the door.

This guy is a sensitive and delicate person, and Jiang Wan didn't dare to let him wait too long.

Otherwise, what if she cries out of grievance? Wouldn't that make her feel bad?

Jiang Wan put down the paper and pen and stood up quickly. She opened the door and saw the second child standing timidly at the door.

"Mom, Grandma Li and I have prepared the meal. Are you done? Are you free to eat now?"

"Mom just finished her work and has time to eat."

Jiang Wan walked out of the room with a smile, then naturally put his arm around his son's shoulders.

The second brother's neck shrank tensely, his back tightened, and then quickly relaxed.

He raised his head and looked at his mother with a smile. He just looked at her quietly without saying anything.

Jiang Wan liked his well-behaved and cute appearance.

Li Shuping was serving rice in the kitchen. The second child broke free from her grip and quickly ran into the kitchen to serve the rice.

After a while, he ran out happily with two large bowls of rice.

"Baby, baby, slow down, slow down!"

Li Shuping's voice was filled with laughter as she also came out carrying a bowl of rice and a few pairs of washed chopsticks.

She kept calling me baby, and her face was full of wrinkles when she smiled.

She seemed to have completely moved on, and the past had no effect on her at all.

She is now healthy, happy and confident, and the past has nothing to do with her anymore, which is really great.

In the past, Jiang Wan and Li Shuping always ate together, but now with the little second child joining them, the feeling is different.

They were all smiling and picking up food for the second child. Everyone liked him very much.

Seeing how thin he is, I want him to eat more so that he can grow taller and stronger.

Although the little one is small, he is a big eater.

He could eat three bowls of rice at every meal, and no matter how much food they gave him, he would finish it all.

Because of his arrival, Jiang Wan cooked two more dishes for every meal during this period.

She has money now, and she just wants her children to eat and drink well.

She used to spend the money she earned on others, and now she feels it’s not worth it.

Now she only wants to spend her money on people who deserve it. She won't spend a penny on those ungrateful people who just wipe their mouths and leave after eating.

After the family had eaten and drunk their fill, the second child rushed to clear the table.

He used to work so hard but still couldn't have a full meal, and he had to support someone who ate free meals.

Now he can do housework if he wants to, and no one forces him if he doesn't want to.

As a result, the rice was enough to fill us up, and there was meat at every meal.

He actually encountered such a good thing that was hard to find even with a lantern.

Maybe he still had some doubts when he came, always wondering what if they were not his parents but human traffickers who wanted to abduct him.

Now this doubt has completely disappeared.

Who would buy new clothes for a child who is about to be sold? Who would feed meat to a child sold by a mechanic?

Who would just throw their child, who is about to be sold, outside to play however he wants?

Since coming here, he has come to know what absolute freedom is.

There was always someone at home, so he could go out whenever he wanted.

Maybe because he was lost once, his family members were particularly wary of his whereabouts.

Every time he went out, they would ask him where he was going and when he would be back.

He felt a little annoyed at first, but later realized that they were just purely concerned.

I just want to know his movements and where he has been, so that I can look for him temporarily in case he disappears.

They didn't want to control him or create obstacles for him. They really loved him and were really afraid that something might happen to him.
