Shen Tingwan raised his head and met the man's dark eyes. His hard jawline was tense and his gaze was icy.
"I believe you."
"Shen Tingwan."
As soon as the low voice fell, Shen Tingwan's almond-shaped eyes lit up and involuntarily curved into a crescent shape.
"Leave this matter to me. I'm Ranran's mother, so I naturally have to protect them and won't let them suffer any grievances in the future."
Jiang Yan stared at the woman in front of him.
I don’t know when, but Chen Tingwan seemed to have become different from before.
She would prepare delicious meals for them, help Ranran take a bath, and buy suitable clothes for the two children.
Jiang Yan actually felt that it was not bad to live like this.
"sorry."
Jiang Yan pursed his lips and spoke awkwardly, "I misunderstood you before, about the thirty yuan for food."
"This matter? I didn't take it seriously."
Shen Tingwan waved his hand indifferently.
Jiang Yan is quite reasonable!
When it comes to solving this problem, Shen Tingwan took action in the afternoon.
Carrying a bag of thoughtful apology gifts, Shen Tingwan knocked on the door downstairs.
"Is it Wanwan?"
When Aunt Li saw her coming with two children, she had a smile on her face, but her eyes moved around, shining with brilliance as they fell on the bag in her hand.
"We came here specially to thank you, Auntie. It's all thanks to you for taking care of Ranran Yuzhi over the years."
Hearing this, Aunt Li's spine straightened a little.
It seems that what I said this afternoon was effective.
What kind of storm could Chen Tingwan stir up? In this family, shouldn't we listen to the man?
I guess she was so hungry at home with her child that she came to ask for help from me!
With this in mind, Aunt Li welcomed the three people into the house.
"Look at you, you're here, what are you bringing? You're being so formal. As the old saying goes, a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. Sometimes being too picky isn't the right thing to do."
Aunt Li took the thing from Shen Tingwan's hand with a smile on her face, but there was a sarcastic tone in her words.
Shen Tingwan smiled lightly but didn't respond.
"These are the meatballs I made. They're filled with lots of meat! I brought them here specifically for you to try. I'm not sure if they'll suit your taste."
When she heard that there was a lot of meat packed inside, Aunt Li's eyes flashed with greed.
Meat was extremely precious in that era, and ordinary people could only eat meat during the Chinese New Year!
Before Shen Tingwan could say anything else, Aunt Li couldn't wait to stuff a few meatballs into her mouth.
"Wanwan, you are so thoughtful. Thank you in advance..."
Before she could even say thank you, Aunt Li's face became stiff.
There was a sour and astringent taste in my mouth, and mixed with the meatballs, there was a slightly strange smell that made me feel nauseous for a moment!
Aunt Li suddenly widened her eyes.
This familiar taste! The meatballs are sour, as if they are spoiled!
She wanted to bend down and spit it out, but Shen Tingwan quickly supported her.
"Hey, auntie, what's wrong with you? Did you eat something bad and your stomach is upset? Why are you lying down for no reason?"
Shen Tingwan had no intention of letting her go, and even raised his hand hard to pull her up.
Under the influence of inertia, all the sour pills in Aunt Li's mouth went down into her esophagus, and she couldn't vomit them out even if she wanted to.
"Why does this meatball have a strange smell?"
Aunt Li gnashed her teeth, but Shen Tingwan looked innocent.
"Strange taste? What strange taste? We've already eaten a bowl. Could it be that my cooking is so bad that Auntie doesn't like it?"
Shen Tingwan spoke pitifully, bringing the tea talk to the extreme.
Aunt Li looked at the meatballs in front of her and cursed in her heart.
How could this meatball be so unpalatable?! Shen Tingwan, such a loser, is really wasting such good meat!
But she could only speak with a dry laugh.
"That's not what Auntie meant."
"Really? Maybe I ate in such a hurry that I didn't taste it. Please eat a few more."
Aunt Li was savoring the taste just now. If she was not mistaken, the meatballs had turned sour!
Jiang Yuzhi picked up two meatballs and handed them to Aunt Li.
"Yuzhi is so sensible, auntie. I didn't expect Yuzhi to be closer to you."
Aunt Li originally wanted to find an excuse to get away, but she didn't expect Jiang Yuzhi to intervene at this time!
If she didn't eat, wouldn't the appearance she had painstakingly created be ruined?
What if Shen Tingwan goes out and spreads some gossip?
Aunt Li was in trouble.
In the end, I still ate it.
Shen Tingwan didn't sit for long before leaving with the two children.
After going out, Jiang Yuzhi looked at Aunt Li who couldn't wait to rinse her mouth. His eyes darkened and his face was tense.
Shen Tingwan listened to the retching sounds in the room, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
Was she so scared when it was her turn? Did she ever think about the consequences of giving the spoiled meatballs to her child?
Children’s stomachs are obviously more fragile than adults’!
Thinking of this, Shen Tingwan took the two children downstairs to play.
It was not until the evening that Aunt Li was seen dragging her weak body down the stairs.
The moment she saw Shen Tingwan, her eyes widened, and she hid as if she had seen a flood beast.
"Hey, what's wrong with Aunt Li? They're neighbors, why doesn't she say hello?"
Lu Yue, who was sitting next to her, asked curiously.
When Shen Tingwan saw Aunt Li's pale face, she knew that she had suffered a lot this afternoon because of the so-called meatballs.
She wasn't as vicious as Aunt Li. At best, those balls would just make her go to the toilet a few more times.
Thinking about her feeding the two children, Shen Tingwan felt that it was really a bargain for her!
"I don't know either. Seeing her leave in such a hurry, maybe something happened."
Lu Yue didn't have the heart to gossip about others, so the two chatted for a while, and then Shen Tingwan took the two children home to cook.
I thought Aunt Li would remember the bad things she had done, but I didn't expect her to start making trouble again.
The next morning, Shen Tingwan took the two children downstairs to play. As soon as she turned around, she heard Ranran crying.
"Wow--"
When Shen Tingwan heard the crying, he turned around and found Ranran sitting on the ground.
"What's going on? Why is Ranran sitting on the ground?"
As soon as Shen Tingwan picked up Ran Ran, he saw a shadow rushing out from beside him.
"Who told you to push my sister?"
Jiang Yuzhi stood in front of the two people like an angry little wolf cub.
He just saw it with his own eyes! Qi Yue came over with a group of children and pushed Ran Ran over without saying a word!
"What's wrong with pushing her? Her mother is a bad person! What she made is poisonous! We're protecting others!"
"That's right! We won't play with you anymore! What if we get poisoned to death one day?"
Ranran had tears in her eyes and was crying breathlessly.
Jiang Yuzhi was facing a group of children alone, and his face darkened as he was scolded left and right.
"You are lying!"
