Jiang Wanwan returned to her room and fell asleep immediately.

The next morning, Jiang Wanwan slowly woke up to the loud crowing of roosters.

She slept soundly last night without any dreams.

A series of quiet conversations could be heard coming from the courtyard.

Jiang Wanwan got out of bed, put on her clothes, and opened the window. The courtyard was full of the Jiang family members.

Everyone in the family got up, even the boys Jiang He and Hu Xun, who never get up early. They gathered in twos and threes to chat, their faces beaming with excitement.

Jiang Wanwan closed the window, changed her clothes, and left the house.

"Wanwan, you're up? Why didn't you sleep a little longer? It's still early. Besides, your uncles and the boys can go cut some mugwort later, so you can just stay home and rest." Old Mrs. Jiang had sharp eyes and was the first to notice Jiang Wanwan.

"Grandma, don't worry. I went to bed early yesterday, so I don't feel tired at all," Jiang Wanwan said.

"Oh right, I'll need to do some hard labor when we're making mosquito coils later. How about this, I'll have my brother help me. He helped me with the work last time, so he's more familiar with it."

"Okay, no problem." Jiang Xun raised his chin slightly and said with a smug look on his face.

See? He's still the older brother, and his sister treats him differently.

"Breakfast is ready, come in and eat so we can get back to work," Hu called out to the crowd, carrying a large bowl of millet porridge.

Hearing that there was food, everyone happily went into the main room.

Grandma Jiang was still distributing porridge to everyone. Unlike before, she no longer favored the second branch of the family. Instead, she changed her target and showed favoritism towards Jiang Wanwan.

Uncle Jiang, Madam Zhu, and Jiang Hu all wore smiles throughout, showing no objection to Old Madam Jiang's actions.

"My precious granddaughter, look how thin you are, eat more porridge to nourish yourself." Grandma Jiang placed the porridge that belonged to Jiang Wanwan in front of her, her face full of wrinkles from smiling.

Jiang Wanwan lowered her head and saw that the bowl of millet porridge in front of her was the thickest and fullest.

She was a little embarrassed. She had originally wanted to correct Grandma Jiang's bad habit of favoring her family members, but she never expected that she would end up being the one who was being corrected!

"Grandma, there's no need to treat me so specially. Just treat me the same as everyone else," Jiang Wanwan said earnestly, looking at Grandma Jiang.

Madam Zhu gave Jiang Wanwan a reproachful look. "Tsk, how can this be? You are a great contributor to our family. Since you returned to our Jiang family, our lives have become more and more prosperous and full of hope. Your grandma will naturally favor you, especially since you are the youngest child in our family. It's not too much to dote on you."

As she spoke, Zhu picked up the only poached egg from the large earthenware basin and placed it in Jiang Wanwan's bowl. "Wanwan, you're so thin, you need to eat more to nourish yourself."

Everyone in the Jiang family nodded in agreement.

Jiang Wanwan looked at Zhu Shi's unusual behavior today with surprise, and then glanced at Jiang Erbo, who was grinning foolishly with a mouthful of white teeth.

Well, it seems that Uncle Jiang somehow persuaded Madam Zhu to also try to please her.

Grandma Jiang glanced at Madam Zhu with a hint of displeasure at her actions.

I should be serving this fried egg to my precious granddaughter!

How could the second daughter-in-law steal my chance to win over my granddaughter!

They're so immature!
