"What do you an by this?" Gao Mutou asked in confusion.
With a sigh, Mrs. Yan explained, "Daniu and the other two are very sensible, but ultimately they are not my own children. Ningning is afraid, she ate two eggs on her own, and Daniu and the others might bla you as their father for not loving them."
With Mrs. Yan’s explanation, Gao Mutou understood.
Still, since Gao Daniu and the others are indeed his biological sons, naturally he had to say a few good words for them, "Honey, you and Ningning are overthinking it. Daniu has been obedient since he was a child, the kids understand these things..."
"It’s precisely because the children are sensible that we, as adults, have to be even more impartial. Even if sotis it’s inevitable to be a bit uneven, there must not be a significant discrepancy..." It was Mrs. Yan’s generosity that made Gao Mutou admire her even more.
Moreover, his heart increasingly felt warmth.
The couple stood at the door talking for a while before returning to their room.
Typically, Gao Mutou and Mrs. Yan slept with their youngest son, who was less than a year old, while Gao Xiaoi slept with An Ning. Due to An Ning being sick these two days, fearing she’d infect Xiaoi, they had her sleep over here temporarily.
Gao Xiaoi is similar in temperant to her original self, possibly because one grew up without a father and the other without a mother, they both belong to the type with relatively timid personalities.
Originally playing with Xiaoniu, as soon as the couple returned, Gao Xiaoi imdiately shrieked and shrank to the side, saying nothing.
To this, Mrs. Yan also felt helpless.
She handed the egg to Gao Mutou, gesturing for him to go over himself. Then, Mrs. Yan picked up Xiaoniu and walked outside, "I’ll take Xiaoniu to the door to get so fresh air."
After Mrs. Yan left, Gao Mutou walked over to Gao Xiaoi, handed the egg, and said, "Xiaoi, look, this is what your sister Ningning left for you and your little brother, hurry and take it and share it with him."
Gao Xiaoi looked at the egg with longing eyes but refused very decisively, "I don’t want it, Dad, better take it for Second Sister to eat."
"What’s wrong? You don’t even want to eat eggs now?" Gao Mutou rubbed Gao Xiaoi’s head with his hand, saying, "Don’t worry, your Second Sister still has one herself. This one, she deliberately left for you and your little brother."
"But..." Gao Xiaoi still hesitated.
In the house, it had always been the granny who managed everything. Not to ntion her, even her little brother had never tasted the flavor of eggs growing up, so naturally, she longed for it in her heart.
But Gao Mutou just couldn’t figure it out, "But what? Can’t you just once say everything at once, instead of stamring with Dad?"
"Second Aunt said that Dad stopped wanting us after marrying a stepmother, and now, everything in our family belongs to Second Sister and Xiaoniu. If I don’t behave or eat too much, I’ll be sold off..."
"That foul woman, saying such things behind our backs, I’m going to confront her right now!"
Mrs. Yan was holding Xiaoniu by the door, tickling him and teaching him to walk, when she suddenly heard a loud roar from the room. As the door opened, Gao Mutou stord out furiously, heading toward the second house.
"What are you doing?"
"That woman Lian is inciting the children behind our backs, saying we’re going to sell them, I’m going to confront her!"
Seeing Gao Mutou’s furious deanor, even Mrs. Yan was frightened.
Lian’s just a woman, and she’s his second sister-in-law, how does he plan to confront her?
