Yun Yiyi also discovered many delicious foods that she had never eaten while chatting with the little girl from the Wu family.

The eldest daughter of the Wu family is named Wu Mei. She's eight years old and a cheerful little girl who loves to laugh. When she chats with Yun Yiyi, she's particularly attentive to others' feelings. This is probably because she has an older brother and a younger brother who needs her care.

The second daughter of the Wu family is named Wu Chun. She is six years old, the same age as Yun Yiyi, and has a four-year-old brother. Wu Chun has a good personality and is carefree, giving off the impression of a tomboy.

Yun Yiyi and the two girls from the Wu family had a great time chatting. Yun Yiyi herself felt that compared to them, they were more like girls of their age. Every day, they only cared about what delicious food to eat or how to keep an eye on their naughty little brother.

Yun Yiyi thought they were quite innocent and happy. Unlike herself, who had the appearance of a child but the heart of an adult, she found herself much happier when she occasionally played with girls her own age.

Li looked at her own child, who was playing well with the other children of the Yun family, and she was also very happy. She felt that she was right. The children of the Yun family were indeed well educated by Zhang.

She knew her own children. The boys were easy to deal with, as they had a few good friends in the village before she fled the famine.

However, the two little girls at home didn't have any particularly good friends in the village. Every time I asked them why they didn't go out to play with other girls, they would say that the other girls always cried and were too annoying. Unexpectedly, they had such a good time playing with Yun Yiyi today.

"Sister-in-law, I never thought that my two little granddaughters get along so well with your Yiyi. You don't know that when we were in the village before, my little granddaughters didn't have any particularly good friends."

"When I asked them, they said that other little girls were too annoying and cried all the time." Li said with emotion.

"Haha, to be honest, I was also quite surprised. My daughter Yiyi used to have no shortage of kids to play with in the village. However, she only played with boys. She was the leader of the group, the kind who had the final say with her fists."

"Yiyi rarely plays with the little girls in the village. She dislikes them because they cry all the time, don't run fast enough, and will complain." Zhang said in a low voice.

"To be honest, I think Yiyi has a good personality. My granddaughters have good personalities too. Especially when they go out, I don't have to worry about them being bullied by others."

"Sister-in-law, you see, your thoughts are the same as mine. Girls tend to be more assertive. If they are bullied, they dare not speak out."

After hearing what Zhang said, Li agreed very much.

"We are just an ordinary farming family. We don't need to raise our girls to be too obedient. This is good enough."

"I chose my two daughters-in-law. They are both very cheerful. They say whatever they want to say and never gossip about others behind their backs. I think you will like them if you get to know them," said Mrs. Li happily.

"Okay, sister-in-law. When we have time, let's get together and chat to relax. It's really uncomfortable to rush on the road like this every day. I don't know when we can settle down." Zhang said a little depressed.

"Hey, don't think too much, just take it one day at a time. Look at me, ever since my third son passed away, my hair has turned completely white overnight. If it weren't for my eldest, second son, my wife, and this whole family, I would have wanted to give up long ago."

"There's something your Yiyi said that's quite right. She said that if my third son were still alive, he'd be such a filial son. He definitely wouldn't want to make his father and I so sad. He definitely wants us to live happily."

"Some time ago, my eldest and second oldest children were worried that I would become depressed, so they either stayed by themselves or arranged for everyone to take turns looking after me. I know in my heart that they are good children, too. They are sad too."

"One night, I heard my eldest and second child sitting together crying quietly. My third child is quite different from his two older brothers, so after he was born, he was basically raised by the eldest and second child. I was busy with housework every day and really had no time to take care of the third child."

"The third child was usually spoiled by his father, as well as the eldest and second oldest children. Otherwise, he wouldn't have died. I told him not to join in the fun. But the whole family supported him. My wife even went with him."

"Sister-in-law, all the old and young in the family are like this. Look at my Yiyi, she is usually spoiled by her grandfather and is not a good person. So, I am the one who usually scolds and beats the child."

"Don't you think I don't love Yiyi? I do too. But if I spoil her, she will become lawless. So, there must be a strict person in the family." Zhang said with deep emotion.

"Yes, sister-in-law, you said it well. If I had thought of this before, my third child would not have died."

"But everything will slowly pass. Those who are still alive have to continue to live their lives, and I am also slowly adjusting my mentality. I can't let the rest of the family live their lives because of one person."

"Yes, sister-in-law. It's great that you think so. Look at your grandchildren, they are so well-developed. We still have a long way to go to escape the famine, and your family still needs you to support them."

"Sister-in-law, if you are in a good mood, the other people in your family will be in a good mood. Even the children will look at the adults' faces." Zhang also slowly persuaded Li.

"Yes, that's true. My grandchildren have been quiet lately. Today I was thinking that if I could play with your children, I would bring them here to play more often in the future." Mrs. Li looked at her grandchildren who were having fun not far away, and her mood improved.

Zhang was also happy to see the children having fun. As expected, children are happier when they play with their friends. Especially Yiyi, who was usually a worried little girl, but now she was laughing when she talked about something happy.

"The children are having a great time. Bring them here when you have time and let them play more. My children usually follow my head of the family to collect firewood or help me cook. They are quite free at other times."

"Your children are so capable. There are many adults in my family, so we don't need them when we cook or collect firewood. But you are right, you can let them help us collect firewood in the future. For children, doing more work is also a training for them." Mrs. Li said happily.
