I don’t know if it was because he was interrupted while feeding or because he smelled his mother’s scent, but little Guoguo stared at Shen Mingzhu for a few seconds, then opened his mouth and burst into tears.

"Don't cry, don't cry, let's continue eating."

After I stuffed the pacifier in, Xiao Guoguo forcefully spit it out, probably because she was having a bad temper.

Shen Mingzhu had no choice but to get up and hold her daughter and spin around in the living room, humming a lullaby.

After coaxing for a long time, Xiao Guoguo stopped crying and continued to hold the bottle and suck milk hard.

Shen Mingzhu stared at her daughter's pink and white face with great satisfaction, feeling that she could never look enough. When she looked up, she saw Pei Ziheng sitting quietly beside her, his dark eyes fixed on her.

Shen Mingzhu suddenly realized that she had been so busy coaxing her daughter that she had neglected her son.

"Son, come here."

When Pei Ziheng approached, Shen Mingzhu pulled him to the sofa, sat next to her, and asked with a gentle smile about the situation at home and with Guoguo during the two days when she was away.

Pei Ziheng answered the questions seriously one by one.

Although his face was calm, Shen Mingzhu could sense that he was not in a very good mood.

After Guoguo had eaten his fill, Shen Mingzhu handed him over to Sister Yu to burp him. She then took Pei Ziheng in her arms and said gently, "Son, I accidentally ignored you just now. Can you forgive me?"

She could clearly feel that after she said this, Pei Ziheng's originally tense body softened in her arms.

"Mom, I'm not mad at you."

Little liar.

Shen Mingzhu pretended to know nothing and let go of him, smiling and praising him: "My son is really a generous person, but mom still wants to tell you that mom's love for you is no less than Guoguo's, but Guoguo is still young now, so you have to take care of her more so that she can grow up quickly."

"But I care about you very much in my heart. If you are unhappy about something, you must tell me, okay? Only when you tell me will I know where I did something wrong and correct it."

Pei Ziheng raised his snow-white and delicate face, and there seemed to be tiny stars in his dark eyes, "Mom, you did a good job. You are the best mother in the world."

"My Ziheng is also the best son in the world."

Pei Ziheng was held obediently by her.

In fact, he was feeling unhappy and lost just now.

As soon as the mother came home, her mind and eyes were full of her sister. After washing her hands, she hugged her sister first without saying hello to him as she did before.

He felt that his mother didn't care about him as much as before.

But now, all the loss and unhappiness in his heart were soothed.

Because he knows that his mother has him in her heart and she still loves him as much as before.

Sister Yu, who was holding Xiao Guoguo and playing with him between the dining room and the living room, looked at the intimacy between the mother and son and showed an admiring smile on her face.

During her years as a nanny, she has served three stepmothers, and Shen Mingzhu is the third one.

The first two stepmothers seemed to be able to find no fault with their step-sons, but in reality they were not very sincere and were just trying to save face.

Only Shen Mingzhu really treated her stepson as her own son, pampering and loving him, and was unwilling to let him suffer any grievances.

"Mom, I got first place in this final exam."

Hearing this, Shen Mingzhu pretended to be surprised, "Really? Son, you are great!"

In fact, Shen Mingzhu had already called the teacher and learned that Pei Ziheng was selected as one of the top three students in the class and was recommended by the school to participate in the district-level selection of top three students.

If you are selected as a district-level three-good student, you will have the opportunity to participate in the city-level three-good student selection next year.

This is the greatest honor and achievement for primary school students.

Shen Mingzhu was originally worried that letting her son skip a grade would be a case of forcing him to grow too fast, but when she saw the transcript with full marks in two subjects and the yellow certificate in her hand, all her worries disappeared.

She found some glue at home and pasted the Three Good Students certificate on the wall of the living room, placing it side by side with the certificates Pei Ziheng had won before.

Pei Ziheng looked up at her back as she put on the award certificate, his little face full of happiness and satisfaction.

After putting the certificate on, Shen Mingzhu lowered her head and prepared to get off the stool, but she saw Pei Ziheng standing on tiptoe and reaching out to her, wanting to help her.

Wow, whose caring and sweet little boy is this?

Shen Mingzhu held Pei Ziheng's white and tender little paws and stood steadily on the ground. After looking up at the certificate on the wall for a while, she lowered her head and asked Pei Ziheng what reward he wanted.

Pei Ziheng thought about it and replied that he wanted a bicycle.

Shen Mingzhu readily agreed, "We'll go buy it when your dad gets off work."

Shen Mingzhu originally thought that after Pei Yang came home from get off work, they would take their son to buy the bicycle, and ask Sister Yu to help look after Guoguo at home.

But the weather was not good and it started to snow heavily near dusk. She was afraid that it would be difficult for Sister Yu to go home due to the heavy snow, so she had to let Sister Yu go home early.

"Son, I'm sorry, it's snowing. Can we go buy a bicycle after the snow stops?"

"Mom, it's okay. We can buy it in spring."

"Thank you for your understanding, son. To make it up to you, Mom will personally cook your favorite dish tonight. What do you want to eat?"

Pei Ziheng immediately recommended the sweet and sour pork, prompting Shen Mingzhu to tease him, "You've eaten it so many times, but you're not tired of it?"

"I'll never get tired of my mom's sweet and sour pork!"

Shen Mingzhu covered her cheek and hissed softly.

Pei Ziheng's face was suddenly full of tension. "Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

"Your words are so sweet, so sweet that they give mom cavities in her teeth."

"Aa ...

Little Guoguo, held in Shen Mingzhu's arms, opened his eyes as big as black grapes, as if curious about what fun games the mother and son were playing.

Shen Mingzhu lowered her head and took a bite of her daughter's soft face, then handed her daughter to her son's care while she went to the kitchen to cook dinner.

Shen Mingzhu looked at the vegetable basket, then at the refrigerator, and quickly prepared a dinner menu in her mind.

Perhaps it was because of the snow that the road was difficult to walk on, and it was already dark when Pei Yang returned home.

As soon as he came back, he went into the kitchen to spend time with her. "Finally you're back. I missed you so much."

As he said this, he put his mouth close to Shen Mingzhu's face, but Shen Mingzhu pushed him away mercilessly, "Stop it, I'm cooking, go look after Guoguo, she's getting heavier, I don't think her son can hold her."

"Give me a kiss first, and I'll go after you kiss me."

Shen Mingzhu couldn't stand the pestering and turned around to respond perfunctorily, but Pei Yang grabbed the back of her head and gave her a French kiss. He didn't let her go until the meat in the pot started to smell burnt.

In addition to her son's favorite sweet and sour pork, Shen Mingzhu also made Pei Yang's favorite stewed pork ribs with potatoes, and a pot of Cantonese-style cured meat rice.

She pickled the bacon herself. The pork was from local pigs bought from the countryside. She marinated the bacon with a secret sauce and dried it in the sun. The taste is simply amazing.

It was a rare occasion for Shen Mingzhu to go into the kitchen, and both the father and son ate until their bellies were full.

After dinner, Pei Yang was responsible for washing the dishes and the pots, while Shen Mingzhu took her son and Guoguo to the baby room on the second floor.

Xiao Guoguo sat on the carpeted floor, looking here and there.

Shen Mingzhu and Pei Ziheng sat cross-legged and folded paper cranes.

While the mother and son were not paying attention, Xiao Guoguo picked up one from the basket full of paper cranes and stuffed it into his mouth.

When Pei Ziheng discovered it, he took the paper crane back immediately.

"You can't eat this. It will upset your stomach."

Little Guoguo didn't care about that. She was unhappy because she didn't get to eat the paper crane and she would cry.

Before she could cry out, Pei Ziheng held her on his lap and took a piece of paper to continue folding paper cranes.

Oh, this is very interesting.

Little Guoguo was so attracted by the movements of her brother's hands that she forgot to cry.

After Pei Yang finished cleaning up, he went upstairs and joined the mother and her two children in folding paper cranes.

"My sister called today and said that the verdict on Wang Hongcheng has been announced."
