Xiaocao loves to eat lychees. While sitting in the car, she ate several. The baby in her arms cried, and she immediately soothed and breastfed the baby.

People these days really don't care. They just tear off their clothes and feed themselves. Haitang watched for a while, seeing the stars and moon driving around, but she didn't feel relieved at all.

After breastfeeding, Xiaocao said, "The baby is too young, and there's no one at home, so I didn't dare leave him there and brought him out." She looked at Haitang as she spoke.

Hearing this, Haitang nodded in understanding. She could carry the child on her back and still work, but if she stayed at home to take care of the child, there would be very little food available.

Although the porcelain business can generate a considerable income, the problem is that if Xiaocao and Shiming want their child to become beast-like, they can't just rely on those things to raise the child.

At this moment, Ping An looked at the little grass, leaned down next to Haitang, her obedient eyes filled with a hint of doubt, but she quickly tugged at Haitang's clothes.

Ping An knew who his mother was—the woman in front of him. Even if he was stupid, he could still hear some of it. So he was still confused but didn't understand why his mother was holding his little brother and not him.

Soon, Ping An felt someone rub her head. When she looked up at Haitang, she immediately ate the lychee obediently. Xiao Cao didn't look at the child; her hatred for Ping An was deep in her bones.

She loathed Ping An and hated him. It was already a remarkable thing that she could sit calmly in the car now. As for giving love, Xiao Cao couldn't do it.

However, Xiaocao did not speak ill of him. She treated Ping An as an outsider, an outsider she did not like. When the carriage arrived, Xiaocao got off.

She then carried the child in a basket on her back and started helping Shi Ming carry things. Looking at the woman in the distance, Ping An looked at Haitang and asked, "Sister...why does she hate me?"

Upon hearing this, Haitang looked at Ping An and squatted down. "Ping An, there are many things you don't know yet. When you grow up, I will tell you, okay? But Ping An... don't think about why others dislike you. Because it's impossible for many people in the world to like one person. I like Ping An. If you're thinking about it, it's enough who in the world likes you. Because sometimes there are definitely more people who dislike you than those who like you," Haitang said.

Upon hearing this, Ping An looked at Haitang and nodded, saying, "Yes, sister, I understand. I like you, sister." As she reached out to hug Haitang, she said, "Sister is the best."

So what if that woman doesn't like him? He's fine with having his sister, and he's fine with being with her. Ping An is young and naive but sensitive; she's sensitive enough to sense who likes her and who doesn't.

Haitang gently stroked the child's hair, offered him lychees, and then started drying the lychees, hanging them in bunches to dry. Ping'an immediately handed lychees to Haitang.

Haitang then hung it on a wooden fork not far away, saying, "Once it's dried, it'll be a little snack." Haitang pinched Ping An's cheek and said, and Ping An immediately nodded.

After hanging up the dishes, Haitang went to cook, leaving Xiao Xiang to watch over Ping An. Today, Haitang prepared wild vegetable soup, roasted yam, and rabbit. There was already a whole litter of rabbits at home, and if they weren't killed soon, they would pile up like a mountain.

Haitang selected three large rabbits and started roasting them. Just as they were almost done, Dongfanglong returned with a wild boar. When Dongfanglong saw Haitang, he immediately threw the wild boar aside and started boiling water to scald the boar's hair before cleaning it.

After cleaning up, Dongfang Long went into the pavilion and sat down to eat. Haitang gave him a glass of juice, which was sweet and sour and very delicious. Dongfang Long took a sip, then sat down and started eating while holding a rabbit.

"I'll chop up the wild boar we caught today and make sausages to hang up later," Dongfang Long said. Haitang nodded and used a towel to wipe his sweat, but Dongfang Long avoided it and wiped his own sweat.

He didn't want his wife to treat him like a son; he was her man. Haitang blinked at Dongfang Long. She used to bend down to get a towel without hesitation, but today he'd changed his mind? Something was fishy…

After eating, Dongfang Long went to prepare the wild boar. He cut off the skin, and Haitang had Dongfang Long cut it open and start stewing it in a large pot. There was no other way; the wild boar skin was too tough to break, and it would be a waste to throw it away.

Once the pork skin was thoroughly cooked and flavorful, Haitang packed it away, planning to use it to cook soybeans the next day. Dongfanglong cut the meat and made sausages, then started rinsing them to remove the blood.

Upon seeing this, Ping An immediately grabbed a broom made from a bamboo fork and went over. Dongfang Long started sweeping, and after cleaning up, he immediately began to take a bath.

"Come here." Seeing that the little one was safe and sound, he immediately poured water on him. Haitang had just put her things down when she saw this scene.

"What are you doing?" Haitang's face turned green with anger, while Dongfang Long looked at Haitang with a somewhat innocent expression.

"Take a bath, Ping An is all dirty." Usually, his wife bathes Ping An, and sometimes he bathes him himself, but he can also give Ping An what he likes.

“This is cold water, Ping An is still so young…” The fact that a child of about two years old was being given cold water made her furious with Dongfang Long. Dongfang Long looked at Ping An.

“I’ve been using cold water since I was very young,” Dongfang Long said. Hearing this, Haitang sighed and walked over to look at Ping An.

"Aren't you cold?" Ping An shook his head, and Haitang then said, "Even if you're not cold, you're still a child, Xiaolong... You can't pour water on a child like that in the future. Even if you know that you can't take a cold shower immediately after sweating, it's easy to get cramps, understand?"
