Zeng Qin’er took the food into the kitchen.

Heng Yi took out the wooden sword, wooden horse, and slingshot Heng Yi bought.

Shun Zi’s eyes immediately brightened.

He had no toys since he was young, so his eyes were filled with envy.

Ah-Yao jumped happily, “Father is so nice! Father is so nice!”

“Love you, Father!”

Heng Yi patted his head, “Go play with Brother Shun Zi. Father will go wash up and change his clothes.”

His body was dirty and smelly. He did not want to dirty his precious son.

Ah-Yao nodded and pulled Shun Zi to play with the wooden swords, wooden horses, and slingshots.

Han Qiao poured the hot water into the wooden bucket and asked Heng Yi to carry it into the room to wash up. “The clothes are on the brick bed.”

“Alright,”

Heng Yi went into the room to wash up, and Han Qiao started cooking.

She was willing to add oil, so the eggs were extremely fragrant.

“Mother! Mother…”

Ah-Yao stood at the side, his mouth wide open.

Han Qiao gave him a piece, and his eyes narrowed in happiness.

Shun Zi stood at the side, extremely envious, not daring to speak.

“Shun Zi, come here.”

Shun Zi was stunned and did not dare to move.

Was Auntie calling him?

“Come on, Shun Zi. Try the freshly fried eggs too.”

“Brother, come!” Ah-Yao grabbed Shun Zi’s hand and dragged him to Han Qiao.

Shun Zi was completely stunned. He was still stunned when the fragrant egg was fed into his mouth.

Han Qiao smiled and patted his head. She turned around and continued to fry another pot of eggs.

Granny Gu wiped her tears. She had to turn her head, pretending that the scene she had just seen did not touch her heart.

Shun Zi thought that it was delicious, but more than that, he felt happy.

“Thank you, Auntie!”

He had originally called her aunt, but for some reason, he had changed it to Auntie.©

Even a six-year-old child had his own thoughts.

Han Qiao had a lot of ideas.

She instantly understood the child’s intentions and nodded with a smile.

Heng Yi came out of the kitchen and served the food.

Han Qiao chopped the chicken into pieces. There was no need for drumsticks. She picked up whatever she liked to eat. Granny Gu and Shun Zi didn’t dare to pick up any food, so Han Qiao said, “Granny Gu, Shun Zi, don’t just look at the food. We’ll all eat whatever’s on the table. There’s no need to be too formal.”

“Ah, okay.”

Granny Gu responded and picked up some chicken for Shun Zi.

Heng Yi also gave Han Qiao the best drumstick he saw, “You’ve worked hard. Eat more.”

“I just do some trivial things at home. It’s not hard at all.” Han Qiao smiled and gave Heng Yi a piece.

Her eyesight wasn’t as good as Heng Yi’s in the dim lighting, and every piece of meat on the plate looked the same to her.

What Heng Yi wanted wasn’t the chicken, but Han Qiao’s love and concern.

Even if she accidentally gave him the bones, he would still eat them happily.

The meal was a happy one.

Once the dishes were empty, their stomachs were full.

Even the big yellow dog outside had chicken soup and rice for dinner.

They wash the dishes together, wash the pots, and boil water. Then wash their faces and feet.

Heng Yi gave the rest of the money to Han Qiao, who took out the rent money and gave it to Granny Gu.

“This…” Granny Gu looked at the money.

She sighed slightly, “Why don’t you keep it for your family? The two of us have taken advantage of you.”

The food and drinks were even more sumptuous than their New Year’s meal.

“Granny, you should do what you need to do. We’ll do what we agreed on so that our days will be long. Besides, you didn’t eat for nothing. You help out with the work too. Shun Zi, help us take care of Ah-Yao.”

“T-then I’ll accept this,” Granny Gu said embarrassedly.

She also wanted to save some money for Shun Zi so that he could have the money to marry a wife in the future.

“You should have kept it.”

Granny Gu then turned to Han Qiao, “Your man is so capable. You two should be able to move out soon, right?”

“We won’t be moving away soon. We’ll be staying in the village for a year. We’ll see what happens then.”

This was Han Qiao’s truth.

“We will indeed build a house very soon. If nothing goes wrong, we will build a house next to yours and be your neighbors.”

Granny Gu was overjoyed when she heard this.
