That bitch Zhao Qiuyi actually dared to play tricks on me!
"Where are my cousin and Qingzhe?" Shen Qingwu pretended not to see them, turned around and asked Shen Yan with a smile.
Shen Yan was a little wary of her niece and smiled, "They are both cleaning their rooms in Songtao Garden."
"Qinglei, dinner is almost ready. Go and invite your cousin." Shen Qingwu instructed Shen Qinglei with a smile.
Shen Qinglei raised his chin to refute, but Shen Qingwu casually raised his hand to smooth the hair on his forehead.
Shen Qinglei quickly responded "yes" and turned around and ran away.

Shen Qingwu said "oh" and said nothing more.
Shen Yan felt uncomfortable because the words were stuck in her throat, but Shen Qingwu didn't say anything. She didn't dare to speak again because she had just been promised a separate courtyard.
…
The family reunited after a long separation and did not sit at separate tables.
Because of the decoration incident, Old Mrs. Shen was dissatisfied with Zhao Qiuyi, and when she saw the dishes coming up, she started to pick on them.
"You've been away from home for so long these years that you don't even cook a single dish from your hometown. Have you forgotten your roots?" The old lady said coldly in front of the children.
