Seeing that they were gradually going off topic, Wu Xiufang slapped the table, interrupting the arguing brother and sister. She stopped fooling them and explained, "Don't worry, your father and I will not get divorced. We just had a little conflict before, and it's been resolved now, so don't think about it anymore. We are a family that will not separate."
"Great! Then I can follow both dad and mom!" Yaya cheered and jumped up on the spot.
Tiedan and the second son of the Zhao family were also very happy. If possible, who would be willing to separate the family?
"Mom, is it because of the conflict back home?" The eldest son of the Zhao family was more calm and asked, grasping the key words.
Wu Xiufang glanced at her eldest son and sighed, "Shi Tou, everything has been resolved. Don't think too much. I'll take care of anything." Perhaps it was because of his childhood experiences, the child was a little too worried. In the end, it was the adults' fault.
"So Dad agreed not to send money there anymore?" He quickly guessed after looking at the things on the table.
The three children who were playing nearby also gathered around after hearing this.
"Mom, is what Big Brother said true? Will you never send money there again?"
"Does that mean Xiaojuan will never be able to show off to me the hairpins her dad bought her again?" Yaya frowned when she thought of her cousin from her hometown. What a disgusting thing!
Tiedan tilted his head and said, "Then can our family eat meat twice more in the future?" He didn't care about anything else, he just wanted to eat meat twice more.
As soon as the word "meat" came out, a slurping sound suddenly came from the living room, which was very obvious.
Wu Xiufang looked over and saw that both Lao Er and Ya Ya had wiped away their nonexistent saliva, their eyes filled with longing. The siblings were now in perfect sync.
She didn't dislike it, after all, who wouldn't crave meat? And the fact that children crave meat so much, after all, is because their parents are incompetent.
"Yes, in addition to meat, there are also snacks and candies that you like. Mom will buy them for you in the future." After she said that, she opened the things she bought today, "Look, Mom bought you the snacks that you like. This is yours, eldest brother, this is yours, second brother..." and she handed everyone's favorite snacks to them.
"Wow—that's a lot of snacks!" Yaya couldn't wait, but she still asked for advice, "Mom, can I have one?"
Wu Xiufang did not refuse, "Eat it, but you can only eat one piece now, and save the rest for later." It is impossible to eat a snack to get full, and the most you can do is eat a piece occasionally to satisfy your craving.
"Mom, you eat!" Yaya first stuffed a piece into her mother's mouth, and then shared it with her brothers and sisters. This was a habit she had developed over the years. "Big brother, this is for you, second brother..."
"Thank you, Yaya." The eldest brother of the Zhao family took it with a smile and gave her a piece from his own snack. "Come, try big brother's too."
The brothers and sisters shared their snacks in this way.
Wu Xiufang was very happy to see her brothers and sisters loving each other. She touched the small hairpin on her head and asked, "Yaya, don't you like Xiaojuan?"
"I don't like it!" The snack in my mouth didn't taste so sweet when I mentioned someone I didn't like. "She always likes to brag to me about what Daddy bought her. Obviously Daddy is my daddy, not hers!"
After saying that, Yaya looked up and said unhappily, "Mom, why would Dad buy hairpins for other people's children? Isn't he my dad?"
Wu Xiufang's smile was gentle, yet it revealed a chilling feeling. "Don't worry, she won't show off in front of you anymore."
"That's good. Then I won't hate Dad anymore." Yaya said happily.
"If you encounter this kind of thing again in the future and you don't like it, just tell your father and he won't do it again," Wu Xiufang taught.
"Okay!" Yaya nodded. Although she didn't like to complain, she would do whatever her mother asked her to do.
Wu Xiufang looked at the silent boss and waved at him, "Don't worry, they won't be able to bully us anymore. Your father promised me that he won't give him a penny except for alimony. He can handle the things over there himself, and we don't have to worry about it anymore."
"Will he change his mind? Will he relent in two years?"
"No, Mom has made it clear to him. If he dares to go back on his word, I will divorce him and take you away." She will definitely not be soft-hearted when the time comes.
The eldest son of the Zhao family was silent for a while, then he looked up with a firm gaze and said, "Mom, I will grow up soon, and then I will support you." If his father regretted and changed his mind, he would not want him anymore.
"Okay, mother is waiting for you to be filial to me in the future."
"And me, I am also filial to my mother!" Several children expressed their loyalty one after another.
***
A few days later, Jian Shu learned about the conversation between mother and children from Wu Xiufang. He smiled and joked, "Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry about it anymore. These children are so filial. It's really enviable."
"If you're envious, then give birth to one too!" Wu Xiufang replied with a smile.
Jianshu stopped talking immediately, she didn't want to get herself into trouble.
Wu Xiufang didn't come here today to induce labor, so she quickly changed the subject.
"Your idea is really good. Now I just cook. I don't have to worry about other things. I have a lot more free time."
"What? Are you feeling bored?" Jian Shu heard the hidden meaning in her words.
Wu Xiufang sighed, "Is this person a jerk? He used to be so busy every day that he never had a moment's rest. He was so happy to have a break. But now that he can rest every day, I feel a little uncomfortable. Am I just born to be a hard worker?"
"You are used to being so busy, so you may not be able to adapt for a while, but it will be fine after a while." Habits that have been formed over a long period of time are not so easy to change. Now you are still in the adaptation period, and you will be fine once you find new fun.
"I hope it can go faster. Why does time go so slowly day by day?" Wu Xiufang now feels that each day is like a year. It is completely different from the days before when it would be dark as soon as she looked up.
Otherwise, she wouldn't go to Jianshu's house every day. It's just because she's bored.
Her old sisters were all very busy. When they got together, everyone was working. She was the only one sitting there doing nothing. It was really a bit uncomfortable. Now she finally understood why Jianshu didn't like being with them before. She just felt out of place.
After going there twice, she no longer wanted to go. She didn't want to hear any sour words.
