Wan Shu's words were so sincere that the bitterness in the women's hearts instantly vanished.

Yes, so what if there's a pension? We're waiting for government approval, and who knows when that will take.

The Liang family's children are indeed too thin. If they don't eat some eggs to help them recover, they might starve to death.

Pork fat isn't expensive. When they're well-off, they sometimes buy some to nourish their children. It's something they can afford!

More importantly, as mothers themselves, they both agreed with Wan Shu's last statement.

As a mother, I'd rather eat less than let my child go hungry!

It seems this wealthy wife has truly reformed.

The women exchanged glances and suddenly became much warmer towards Wan Shu, taking her hands and sharing their experiences on how to help their babies gain weight and grow stronger.

Aunt Wang was the last to return. Looking at the sudden change in the scene before her, she couldn't help but mutter, "They really know how to win people's hearts."

She pulled her youngest daughter into the car and told her, "She doesn't look like a good person at all. Huani, you must never follow in her footsteps."

Huani nodded obediently and opened her dry lips: "Mother, I'm thirsty."

Aunt Wang patted her head tenderly, took an apricot from her basket and secretly slipped it to her, lowering her voice: "There's no water now, have an apricot first."

Fruit is a rare treat these days, and Aunt Wang only bought it for Huani today because it's her birthday.

Huani's eyes lit up, and she quickly devoured the apricot, leaving only the pit. She couldn't bear to throw it away and kept it in her mouth, savoring the taste.

Suddenly, the oxcart ran over a stone, and the people inside the cart shuddered. The apricot pit slipped down and got stuck in Huani's airway.

Huani coughed, her body hunched over.

Aunt Wang sensed something was wrong and patted her body, but before she could ask what was wrong, Huani rolled her eyes and collapsed onto the oxcart.
