So, what was the fate of this little baby in his previous life?
Sun Lifang looked down at the baby in her arms.
The baby, innocent and unaware of the world's ways, sucked on his hands, flapped his little arms, and made giggling sounds that reached Sun Lifang's ears. He had an excellent temperament.
What fate awaited this child after her grandmother passed away in her previous life, when Tian Daying took a large sum of money for Sun Lifang's funeral and her grandmother's savings?
Was it sent away, or was it simply thrown away?
When she recalled how her younger brother, Sun Baoyang, casually mentioned the little girl abandoned on the edge of the field, with such a matter-of-fact attitude, Sun Lifang felt a chill in her heart.
In his eyes, girls were born guilty and deserved to be abandoned.
That's what happens when you're a girl.
Sun Lifang dared not think about it anymore.
"Grandma, let me help you."
Hearing her say that, Grandma Sun looked up in surprise, "How can you help?"
“I’ll take care of you in your old age, and I’ll take care of the children too.” Sun Lifang said without hesitation, “You can’t stay at home anymore, and I’m not comfortable leaving you in the old house.”
"Go to the city?" Old Mrs. Sun hesitated. "What about your husband..."
Grandma Sun was used to being independent her whole life. She didn't like to burden others and couldn't bring herself to do it.
Who would support their grandmother after marriage? That's outrageous!
"You don't need to worry about that. You raised me when I was young, so it's only right that I take care of you when you're old."
"But......"
Grandma Sun was afraid of being a burden to Sun Lifang, since they were already married and it would affect her life.
She didn't want to embarrass her granddaughter by living in such poverty, which was why she didn't want to go to the city.
"But what? What's so great about 'but'?"
Sun Lifang looked at her grandmother and said, "Do you have any other good ideas? Can't you see clearly? This family won't let you raise the children. Even if you raise them yourself, do you have enough energy? I happen to have children. Raising one or two is the same. You said that without that person's help, there would be no father, and therefore no me. This is like me repaying a debt of gratitude. It has nothing to do with you!"
Sun Lifang believes in cause and effect.
As if by some unseen force, she returned to her hometown and happened to come across this incident. In order to make up for the regrets of her previous life, resolve her grandmother's worries, and give her a happy old age, she also had to accomplish this task.
After hearing her granddaughter's words, Grandma Sun could only nod; she was indeed at her wit's end.
If we don't do it this way, what other choice do we have?
Although the future is uncertain, Sun Lifang is her most beloved granddaughter, and she trusts her granddaughter's character.
Grandma Sun had thought it through. She would take things one step at a time. If it caused trouble for her granddaughter, she would take the child away.
I absolutely will not cause her any trouble!
Looking at her granddaughter, who was radiating confidence, Grandma Sun had to admit that the little girl who used to cry had grown up and could protect her grandmother.
In her mind, it was already difficult for her granddaughter to work hard on her own. She didn't have a single penny of dowry, so it would definitely be difficult for her in-laws. She wouldn't be able to stand on her own two feet and would have to ask her husband for money. She would definitely be submissive and hesitant.
She hadn't expected her granddaughter to make such a decisive decision; she just didn't know what her grandson-in-law thought...
Thinking of this, Grandma Sun sighed, "Let's eat first, and we'll talk about the rest later."
Seeing that her grandmother had finally agreed, Sun Lifang smiled and said, "Then I'll bring it in for you, just wait."
Sun Lifang brought out two large bowls of dumplings from the kitchen, and then scooped out half a bowl of rice water from another pot of porridge. She was worried because she had no breast milk. What would her baby eat in this rural area?
Grandma Sun didn't want to clash with her daughter-in-law, and Tian Daying must usually be in the kitchen...
Shaking her head to clear her mind, Sun Lifang first fed Xiaobao the rice porridge, then watched as Grandma Sun finished a bowl of dumplings.
As a child who grew up following her grandmother around, Sun Lifang knew that her grandmother had a huge appetite, so she brought over another bowl full of dumplings, fearing that one bowl wouldn't be enough for her.
"I can't eat anymore, and I definitely can't go back to it. Grandma, please eat it for me."
"Hey—you."
Grandma Sun could easily see through Sun Lifang's trick. Under Sun Lifang's "coercion," she reluctantly ate two bowls of dumplings.
"Grandma, come live with me in the city. If you want dumplings, I'll make them for you every day."
"You still make dumplings? Have you forgotten how you used to make them when you were little?"
Sun Lifang's words stirred up Grandma Sun's memories and diverted her attention. She felt much better and started talking about the funny things that happened when Sun Lifang was a child.
"You were a very naughty child; you even buried perfectly good dumplings in the dirt..."
Grandma Sun laughed and said that Sun Lifang did some silly things when she was a child so that she could eat dumplings every day.
"The dumpling tree is still young and doesn't know any better."
Sun Lifang smiled and joined her grandmother in reminiscing about the past, creating a warm and natural atmosphere.
Since her rebirth, she has nurtured her daughter's character, managed family relationships well, and built her own career.
Now, with her grandmother by her side, her life is complete.
Sun Lifang has no grand ambitions; she just wants to stay with the people who give her warmth and live an ordinary and simple life.
Just as she was about to speak, there was a knock on the door, followed by Zhou Yunshi's voice, "Wife, what are you and Grandma talking about in there?"
He had never heard such unrestrained laughter before.
Grandma Sun wasn't ready to see anyone. She glanced at the baby and was about to close the door, but it was too late. Zhou Yunshi had already walked into the house and saw the baby in her arms. "Whose child is this? So well-behaved?"
Rice water is definitely not enough to fill the baby up. After finishing it, the baby still had his little mouth open. He didn't cry even though he was hungry, and he quietly sucked on his little fist to comfort himself.
Grandma Sun was in a very awkward position. Tian Daying had said so much outside. What if her grandson-in-law thought the same way?
