However, in the days to come, there shouldn't be as many unpleasant things to worry about.
As long as Fang Yaoqing remains in the capital, he won't dare to cause any more trouble.
"Really? That's great! We can finally go out and play!" Fang Xiaotao jumped up happily, a cute and innocent smile on her face.
Fang Xiaotao at this time was completely different from when she first arrived. Song Lili didn't know if it was the influence of her environment, but she was happy to see the child getting better.
She had issues with Zhang Aiai, but she always showed tolerance towards the children; as long as it wasn't too excessive, she could forgive them.
"Let's go buy some good food. What do you want to eat?" Song Lili asked in a good mood.
"I...I want to eat apples and pears." These fruits aren't available in the countryside.
Even if they did, they would be precious items and wouldn't be easily given out for people to eat.
Therefore, Fang Xiaotao had never eaten any of them. Aside from meat, she had a strong obsession with these kinds of foods.
"Okay, I'll buy it for you if you want to eat it." Song Lili nodded. It wasn't anything expensive, and since the child wanted to eat it, she would buy it.
She's not the type to mistreat children. Besides, she enjoys eating fruit herself, so she can eat it too if I buy it for her.
Song Lili took Fang Xiaotao to buy dry noodles, fruit, soft drinks, and snacks that children like. Then, hand in hand, they slowly strolled home.
Everyone else was still in the backyard; it was just the two of them outside.
"Alright, eat whatever you want." Song Lili said, amused by Fang Xiaotao's drooling expression.
The child learned to restrain himself and no longer pounced on food like a hungry wolf whenever he saw it.
"Thank you, Auntie. You're so kind of you. You bought me so much delicious food; I've never eaten anything like it before," Fang Xiaotao said as she ate.
Song Lili paused for a moment. "Then tell your aunt what you want to eat, and your aunt will buy it for you."
"Thank you, Auntie." Fang Xiaotao was even happier.
"Auntie, you're better than my grandma. She never gives me any food, and she beats me if I eat it." Fang Xiaotao pouted, looking a little aggrieved.
Song Lili sighed. What could she say?
Those were Fang Xiaotao's elders, and also her elders; it was inappropriate to say anything about them.
"Xiaotao, you must remember not to easily resent others, nor to easily give up on yourself. People must learn to love themselves, and then others will love you."
Even if others treat you well, you'll still be heartbroken if someone treats you badly. How can things possibly get better for you that way?
Only by loving yourself can you live a good life. Even if no one loves you, you can still live a fulfilling life.
"A person must strive to make their heart strong in order to live a good life."
Only with inner strength can one face the storms of life without fear and persevere through them.
Otherwise, even the smallest difficulty can cause someone to break down or even become completely despondent.
Song Lili has always believed that a person's inner self is the most important thing, and true strength lies in inner strength.
Faced with Fang Xiaotao's situation, she didn't know what to say, so she could only tell her to be strong.
If you are strong enough, you can withstand the wind and rain.
"Auntie, I don't understand." Fang Xiaotao looked at Song Lili in confusion. What was her aunt saying? Why couldn't she understand?
Song Lili patted her head affectionately and said, "If you don't understand, that's fine. Just eat it."
She's still young and doesn't understand, that's normal. But as long as it leaves a mark on her mind, it will have an effect sooner or later.
Song Lili hoped that these words could help her; she couldn't bear to see a child drift further and further away from warmth.
"good"
Fang Xiaotao didn't think too much about it; all she cared about right now was delicious food. They were all things she'd never tried before, and she really wanted to eat them all!
Song Lili only ate a little; the rest almost all went into Fang Xiaotao's stomach.
Seeing that Fang Xiaotao couldn't eat anymore but still wanted to take more, Song Lili stopped her, saying, "Don't eat anymore, won't you feel uncomfortable if you eat any more?"
"Keep the rest. I'll heat it up for you at lunchtime if you want to eat it." My stomach can't handle eating any more.
Fang Xiaotao touched her swollen belly and reluctantly nodded, "Okay." She really couldn't eat anymore; she felt a throbbing pain in her stomach.
If I eat any more, I'll definitely feel unwell.
Zhang Aiai, who had just come out from the backyard, heard this, smiled slightly, and then turned around and went back inside.
Let the child and sister-in-law stay together; it's good for the child.
Unlike last time, Zhang Aiai did not think that Song Lili was stopping Fang Xiaotao from eating because she didn't want to give her food. She understood that it was because she was afraid the child would feel uncomfortable.
Thinking back on what she had done in the past, Zhang Aiai felt somewhat ashamed. How did she even come up with the idea of going to that place?
Perhaps their brains have been flooded with seawater, which is why they would have such thoughts?
But no matter what, she's now sober and understands many things.
She knew her sister-in-law didn't have a good impression of her, so she wouldn't get close to her. Keeping her distance was just fine.
She believed that the relationship would gradually improve in the future.
Neither of the two people in the courtyard noticed that Zhang Aiai had come out and gone back; they were just sitting there.
Fang Xiaotao was feeling drowsy, so she rested her chin on the back of her hand and squinted her eyes while lying on the table.
"Xiao Tao, have you thought about going to school?" Song Lili suddenly asked, as she had just remembered this matter.
"Huh? Go to school? My grandma won't let me go!" Fang Xiaotao blurted out, still half-asleep.
"I'm asking you, if you were offered the chance to go to school, would you want to go?" Song Lili asked with a slight pang of sadness.
"Me?" Fang Xiaotao was confused, but quickly nodded. "I want to go."
In the past, she didn't want to go either, because girls her age didn't go to school and stayed at home, so she felt there was no need to go to school.
But after arriving in the capital, Fang Xiaotao discovered that things were different; it turned out that all the children were going to school!
Cousins Xiao Chen and Xiao Zhe, as well as Xiao Hui, have all gone to school. Xin Yi will also be going to school in the future.
So Fang Xiaotao gradually came to understand that children should go to school.
Moreover, listening to Xiaohui talk about school every day, she suddenly felt that it seemed quite nice there, and she began to like it.
She also wanted to go to class with her friends, play games together, and learn with the teacher.
So, the fact that she is willing to go to school now is really good.
"Okay, I understand."
Song Lili smiled, feeling relieved. As long as her child had the idea, that was good. She was just worried that her child might not want to go, which would be a bit tricky.
However, the current situation is still good. Xiao Tao herself wants to go, and even if conditions change later, she will not object, which is good.
"Aunt, why are you suddenly asking me this question?" Fang Xiaotao asked curiously.
"It's nothing. I just suddenly remembered to ask, it's nothing." Now, who knows what the future holds! I can't tell the child.
"oh"
