Are you finally willing to tell him your origins?

Pei Ziheng concealed his true emotions, raised his pretty little face, his expression full of confusion and curiosity.

"Will you leave? When will you leave?"

Although he asked this, what he was thinking in his heart was, now that you are here, don't even think about leaving. If you dare to leave, I will lock you up.

Shen Mingzhu, who could not see the little devil hidden in her stepson's heart, smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will not leave until you grow up."

"So when I grow up, will you still leave?"

Shen Mingzhu thought for a moment and said, "If you want me to stay, I will stay."

Pei Ziheng's eyes lit up, "Really? Then I want you to stay with me forever and be my mother for the rest of your life."

"OK."

Shen Mingzhu was very pleased that her stepson was so easy to coax and couldn't help but hold him in her arms.

Pei Ziheng quietly let her hug him, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

It’s great that he has a mother, a mother who belongs to him and only him, the only one in the world.

"Mother."

When Shen Mingzhu heard this voice suddenly, she thought it was an illusion and was slightly stunned.

until--

"Mother."

The son in his arms called out again, and Shen Mingzhu finally woke up as if from a dream and realized that he was indeed calling her.

——

Pei Yang, who was sitting at the dining table wearing an apron and picking vegetables, felt jealous when he saw his son and daughter-in-law walking out of the room hand in hand affectionately.

She is obviously his daughter-in-law, so why does he have to go to so much trouble to coax her if he wants to hold her hand, while his adopted son can hold her hand every day?

"Ziheng, come and help me pick the vegetables."

Seeing that both mother and son were looking at him, Pei Yang said nonsense in a serious tone: "I won't be at home often in the future. You will be the little man of the family and you have to help your mother with things."

Pei Ziheng agreed with this and walked over without saying a word.

My silly son is so easy to coax. It would be even better if my wife was also so easy to coax.

Pei Yang looked at his wife.

Shen Mingzhu sat on the sofa, folding clothes while watching TV. The clothes, smelling of soap and sunshine, were folded into neat little squares under her slender, soft hands.

The afterglow of the setting sun slanted in from the balcony and shone on her fair and beautiful face, making her look so gentle and beautiful.

Pei Yang was so fascinated by the scene that he felt he could never see enough.

During dinner, he suggested taking a family photo on the weekend.

Shen Mingzhu did not comment.

Pei Ziheng was still young and had no say, but of course, he would not refuse.

In a blink of an eye, it was the weekend. After breakfast, the family of three dressed neatly and went out.

Because they were going to take photos, Shen Mingzhu dressed up and put on light makeup. Under her arrangement, the father and son also dressed particularly smart and handsome.

The three members of the family were all good-looking people, and they looked even more pleasing to the eye after dressing up. They attracted the attention of the people in the family compound, and they did not look away until the three people left the family compound.

"What a pity, Pei Yang is such a handsome young man, but he has that kind of problem at such a young age."

"It's such a pity for his delicate wife. With such a pretty face and figure, many young men in our family compound were fascinated by her."

"Have you heard? Pei Yang's son was not his own, he was picked up!"

"Hiss, so he has already planned this out? Since he can't have children of his own, he picks up someone else's child to raise as his own. No wonder he hasn't married yet at such an old age."

"He used a fake son to deceive someone's daughter into marrying him. This is simply immoral!"

…

In addition to the family portrait, the three of them also took some individual photos and group photos.

The filming didn't end until noon.

Pei Yang took the mother and son to find a nice restaurant for dinner, and then went to the cinema to watch a movie.

All the tickets were brought by Pei Wenping. She brought a lot every once in a while. The movie tickets at home were piled up like a mountain. Shen Mingzhu was considering whether to become a second-hand dealer.

By the time we got home from the movie, it was almost evening.

During holidays or after school, children like to play there.

It was the same today on the weekend. Seven or eight children aged five to ten gathered together and had a lot of fun.

Someone saw Pei Ziheng coming back and shouted at him: "Pei Ziheng, come here——"

Pei Ziheng glanced at it and then looked away, looking uninterested.

Shen Mingzhu, however, wanted her son to play with other children of the same age, so she said, "Go play with them, exercise, don't stay at home all the time, like an old man."

"knew."

Seeing her son's reluctance, Shen Mingzhu touched his head with amusement.

"Be good, I'll make you sweet and sour pork tonight."

Pei Ziheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he walked happily with his short legs.

Pei Yang looked at her with envy and jealousy, and wondered when his wife would be able to coax him like this.

——

A group of children were playing with slingshots, shooting banyan leaves ten meters away. Whoever knocked down the most leaves would win.

Although there are no rewards or prizes, the world of children is pure and simple, and the glory and halo of winning far outweigh any prizes.

Among the group of children, Pei Ziheng was relatively young, but his aim was very good and he almost never missed his target, beating the other children to a pulp.

Some children were too embarrassed to admit it and clamored to play with slingshots anymore, wanting to play with something else.

After some discussion, everyone started playing hide-and-seek.

In Pei Ziheng's opinion, hide-and-seek is the most boring game, no doubt about it.

But thinking of the delicious sweet and sour pork he would eat in the evening, he tried to suppress his impatience and find a place to hide.

Just as I climbed up the banyan tree and hid myself, I heard someone talking on the rooftop of the bungalow of the senior activity center next to me.

"...I don't know where Pei Yang picked up this wild child. Could he have bought him with money?"

"Oh, you can't say that. Human trafficking is illegal and you'll go to jail."

Ma Sufen didn't take it seriously, but she was thinking darkly whether she should secretly go to the Public Security Bureau to report it. What if Pei Yang really bought the child and Pei Yang was in jail? Then the people in the family compound would no longer make fun of her son for going to jail.

But she just thought about it and didn't dare to actually report it.

Regardless of whether Pei Ziheng was bought by Pei Yang, if the news leaked out, she would be drowned in the spit of the people in the family compound.

However, when Ma Sufen thought about Pei Yang's inability to give birth to a son, she couldn't help but gloat over his misfortune.

"Oh, it's all fate. No matter how good your vision is and how good your wife is, she still can't give birth to a son, so you can only be raised by others. If the biological parents come to you in the future, then all your efforts will be in vain."

Shen Baolan replied, "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely give you a big fat grandson."

Someone joked, "Hey, Shuhuan's wife, how can you be sure that the baby in your belly is a son? What if it's a daughter?"

"Impossible! I consulted Fairy Ma, and she confirmed that this is a boy!" She said while touching her belly proudly.

Although Ma Sufen didn't like Shen Baolan as her daughter-in-law, she was still very happy to hear that she was pregnant with a grandson.

Now that we are implementing the birth control plan, every family can only have one child, but she can have two grandchildren.

There is still some use in marrying this daughter-in-law, after all, the fine for having more children than allowed is quite high.

——

Seeing that it was getting late, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law contentedly prepared to go home and cook dinner.

The stairs leading downstairs are open-air, with one side against the wall and the other side suspended in the air.

Shen Baolan walked in front, holding her waist with one hand and the wall with the other.

Ma Sufen walked behind, also holding on to the wall and slowly going down the stairs.

No one noticed that a small white stone flew out from the banyan tree and hit Ma Sufen's knee directly.

"ah--"

Ma Sufen staggered and was about to fall down the suspended side of the stairs. In panic, she reached out to grab her daughter-in-law in front of her.

Shen Baolan was dragged and fell down the three-meter-high stairs.
