Instead, Si Yang took the initiative to invite them out for dinner.
During her confinement period, they had been working hard to take care of her and the children, so she naturally had to take them out for a good meal to comfort them.
Si Yang booked a table at the most upscale hotel in Yangcheng and took them and a few children there at noon.
This restaurant specializes in Shandong cuisine, and its most famous dish, Nine-Turn Large Intestine, is well-known far and wide.
After it was served on the table, even Aunt Wu praised it highly.
Halfway through the meal, Xiao Yubao wanted to pee, so Si Yang took her to the hotel bathroom.
As soon as I arrived at the hotel lobby, I heard a loud commotion. It turned out that a thief had sneaked into the hotel and was stealing food without paying. A group of people were about to take him to the police station.
Si Yang heard the thief begging for mercy from afar. The voice that was trembling with fear belonged to a woman.
Si Yang was not interested and was about to leave with Xiao Yubao, but suddenly he heard an excited voice coming from the door.
"Are you... Zhao Huan?"
Si Yang paused.
Zhao Huan!
This was the name of the original owner when he was in the mining area, and was picked up by Zhao Hehua casually.

She was wearing a worn blue cloth jacket covered in mud crusts, and a pair of mud-covered cloth shoes with two holes in them, with half of her big toe, which was not wearing socks, sticking out of the hole.
The woman's messy short braids were stuck behind her ears, and her dark and chapped face was embedded with a pair of eyes full of sorrow, staring at Si Yang without blinking.
Si Yang looked at the familiar face and quickly found the information about this woman from his forgotten memories.
"Are you... Yang Xiaomai?"
When the original owner was struggling to make a living by picking up and stealing coal in the mining area, she worked with Yang Xiaomai and her brother.
After their mother died of illness, their father remarried and abandoned them. The original owner was abused by Zhao Hehua. Their tragic fate made them friends.
They climbed the train together, got beaten together, were chased together, and after getting the money, they giggled together and planned for the future.
Those days were bitter and difficult, but also a little sweet...
Later, not long after the brother and sister were taken away by their father, Si Yang was also taken back to Beijing by the Qin family, and they never saw each other again.
When Yang Xiaomai saw that Si Yang did not pretend not to know her, a bitter and excited smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her eyes turned red.
"Zhao Huan, can you help me?" Yang Xiaomai looked nervously at the people watching the excitement around her, "I'm really too hungry, I can't go into the Public Security Bureau..."
