Li's mother hurriedly praised him but then criticized him first.
After these compliments, both sides' expressions relaxed, and he began to act pretentiously again.
"Alas, you are a blessed person, unlike your daughter. My dead husband passed away early, and our daughter Yuanyuan has even forgotten what her father looks like.
Not to mention enjoying life, if it weren't for this uncle supporting me, I don't know what my life would be like."
People always sympathize with the weak, especially those close to them.
