It's hard to be a stepmother, my disabled husband takes care of my child

Looking at the two children like this, Su Man also understood that the two children and Gou Sheng were probably good friends.

But if you think about the life experiences of these three children, they are quite pitiful and can be said to share the same fate.

Gousheng and Wang Nier's father died of illness more than two years ago. Three months after their father's death, their mother returned to her parents' home and remarried, so the two siblings have been relying on each other for the past two years.

Fifteen-year-old Wang Nier has been raising her four-year-old brother by digging wild vegetables and growing some crops.

As she thought about it, she silently put in more meat.

The two children are kind-hearted and willing to make friends, and she, as a mother, cannot hold them back.

And those two siblings were indeed quite pitiful, so she helped them if she could, just for the sake of the two children.

Perhaps because they were anxious to visit their friends, the two children ate their meal much faster than usual.

"Dabao, why don't you go with us today? Anyway, your uncle is looking after your father, so just go out for a walk and see your friends." Su Man really wanted Dabao to go out and play as well, and have fun like a normal kid.

Her eldest son has been so sensible these days that it really makes her feel distressed.

Dabao hesitated at first, but finally nodded under Su Man's expectant gaze.

It seems that this woman really wants him to go with her, otherwise why would she keep asking him?

Since the woman wanted him to go so much, he should go.

Su Man really wanted Dabao to go with her, so she was very happy when she saw Dabao nodded in agreement.

"Oh, Dabao is the best! The three of us can finally go out for a walk together."

Dabao's stern face gradually showed a smile.

Humph, it turns out that this woman really wants him to go.

"But didn't you just say that he had no clothes to wear so he couldn't go out?" Su Man thought of this again.

The two children nodded slowly.

Xiaobao: "Mother, they are so pitiful. They only have one piece of clothing at home. Sister Ni'er wore it when she went out, and then she had nothing to wear. She could only wrap herself in a quilt at home."

As he said this, he looked down at his warm, new clothes.

"Thank you, mother. If it weren't for you, my brother and I would be too cold to go out."

Xiao Bao spoke in a soft voice, and he tilted his head slightly to look at Su Man. His admiring expression made Su Man's heart soften.

"Mother said that this is what she wants to do. Mother likes you, so she wants to love you well."

Dabao's eyes flashed slightly.

"By the way, mother bought you a lot of clothes these days. Would you like to give one to Gousheng? But those clothes were bought by mother for you, so it's okay if you don't want to."

"I'm willing." Dabao said, "We have a lot of clothes now, we can leave one piece for the dog. Sister Ni'er also gave Xiaobao and me wild fruits to eat before."

After he said that, he ran to the room and took a long time to pick out a black one.

"I originally liked this dress very much because you made it for us." Dabao said to Su Man.

"But...but we have a lot of clothes now, and Gousheng needs clothes more than us, so I am willing to give it to him."

They all liked the things the woman prepared for them and couldn't put them down.

It’s just that Sister Ni’er was very nice to them in the past, and Gousheng was their only friend in the village, so they were willing.

Xiaobao then pulled Su Man's clothes again.

"Mother, can I...can I give a pair of pants to the dog? He has no pants to wear."

He said it carefully, just like his brother said, although it made them uncomfortable to give the clothes and pants their mother bought for them to Gousheng, if they didn't do so, Gousheng would freeze to death.

"Of course!" Su Man nodded without hesitation, "It's true that I bought the things for you, but they are yours and you have the right to control them.

Besides, you are also helping others, which is a good thing. How could mother not agree?"

Xiaobao said thank you to his mother sweetly, then went back to his room to find a pair of pants.

Now that she had the clothes and pants, Su Man thought about it and decided to get a pair of socks and a pair of shoes.

"Since you have clothes and pants, you should also have shoes and socks. I bought these shoes for you guys to wear, but now I'll give a pair to Gousheng, okay?"

The two children nodded in unison.

Su Man rubbed the two children's heads, then picked up the basket and asked the two children to go find Gousheng with their clothes and pants.

On the way there, you will inevitably meet people from two villages. They will look at the mother and her two children who are all dressed neatly in new clothes, especially the two children who are holding some clothes, shoes and other things in their arms.

This made them curious.

"Um...Xiao Su, where are you going with all these things?"

"I didn't go anywhere. I just went to see Gousheng. In the past, Ni'er and Gousheng helped my two children a lot. Now that life at home is a little better, I thought of going to see them and give Gousheng some clothes."

Su Man did not hide anything about what she was going to do. After all, it was not going to be anything bad.

However, the woman who asked her the question widened her eyes in shock when she heard that she was going to deliver clothes to other people's children.

However, when she looked at the brand new clothes that Su Man and her family of three were wearing, she just gave a dry laugh and left.

But after she left, she couldn't help but mutter a few words in her heart.

The fabrics of those clothes are really good, but they were just given to others? Is Su Man stupid and rich?

It seems that Su Man's uncle is really rich.

As for Su Man's business with Youran Ju in the town, Aunt Mei had not had time to tell the village about it, after all, she had gone to the mountain early this morning.

Su Man didn't know that in the eyes of others she had become a fool with a lot of money, but even if she knew she wouldn't care.

The brother and sister had helped the two children, and she was happy to help them back.

Wang Nier and her brother live in a mud-brick house that looks very old.

She looked down at the two children, and Xiaobao was already shouting at the top of his lungs.

"Gousheng! Gousheng, open the door! I'm Ziqiu! My brother and I are here to play with you!"

"Xiaobao." Su Man called out to Xiaobao, "Didn't you say he had no clothes to wear? Maybe it's too cold for him to come out, how about we push the door open and take a look?

Of course, it's because he has no clothes on so we can push the door open and take a look. But you still need to get permission before entering other people's homes, understand?"

The two children nodded obediently.

Just when Su Man was thinking about pushing the door open to take a look, the door was suddenly opened from the inside.

A boy with a pale face and thin body, wearing only a single piece of clothing, a pair of trousers and straw sandals, appeared in front of her.

This child was similar to the two children Su Man had just crossed over to. Both had tattered clothes, pale faces, and skinny bodies, looking malnourished.

Su Man looked at the child's thin clothes and remembered the inappropriate clothes Wang Nier was wearing in the morning.

"Xiao Qiu! Xiao Xia! Come here! Why did you come to see me!" Although Gousheng was shivering from the cold, he was very happy when he saw Dabao and Xiaobao.

But his happiness didn't last long, and he immediately became scared when he found Su Man was there.

"Aunt...Aunt." There was fear in his eyes, and it was obvious that he had some psychological trauma towards Su Man.

Su Man knew that her original body had scolded this child before, so she could understand the child's fear.

"Hello, Gousheng. It's so cold. Can I go to your house first to talk?"

"Yes, Gousheng, let's go in first! My brother and I brought you something! You will definitely like it!" Xiaobao pulled Gousheng and ran into the house.

Dabao slowly followed Su Man.

"Don't...don't be angry. Gousheng doesn't hate you. He...he just..."

Dabao wanted to explain, but he was actually worried that Su Man would be sad and angry.

But no matter how smart he is, he is just a child, so he doesn't know how to explain it.

Su Man burst out laughing.

"Dabao, mother knows. Mother is not angry. Mother did some things wrong in the past. It is normal for Gousheng to be afraid of me. No one is perfect. Mother made mistakes before, so why not correct it now? For people, making mistakes is not scary. What is scary is knowing the mistakes and not correcting them. Do you understand?"

Dabao nodded thoughtfully.

"I see."

Su Man looked around the yard and discovered that although there wasn't much in the house and it was a bit shabby, it was very clean. It seemed that Wang Nier was also a hardworking girl.

It's just that Wang Nier is too hard. She is only 15 years old and still in junior high school, but she has to shoulder the responsibility of a family.

Su Man and Dabao followed Gousheng into his room and found that the room was also extremely simple, with a wardrobe and a small table. One of the legs of the table was broken and was supported by a stone.

There is also a kang and a quilt.

Both the quilt used as a cushion and the quilt used as a cover looked very thin, and it was obvious that they had been used for many years, but they were still relatively clean after being washed.

At this time, Gousheng was sitting on the bed, wrapping himself with a quilt to keep warm, while Xiaobao was showing Gousheng the pants and socks he brought.

Gousheng stared at the new pants blankly, until he saw Su Man come in, he started to get a little nervous.

"Aunt...Aunt, please come and sit on the bed. It will be warm...warm."

Su Man smiled at him softly, "Thank you, Gou Sheng, but Auntie is not cold, just sit on the stool."

She pulled the stool over to the bed and then sat down.

Dabao put the clothes and shoes in his hand in front of Gousheng.

"Gousheng, these are… the clothes and shoes my step-mother brought for you. Put them on and you'll be warm."

When he said the word "stepmother", his voice was very low, and his little face even turned slightly red because of embarrassment.

Su Man was extremely surprised. Although Dabao called her stepmother, he was finally willing to call her that. How could she not be happy and surprised?

I’ve already called you stepmother, so is mother still far away?

Xiaobao was also surprised that his brother was willing to call for help, which made him look at his brother for a long time.

However, he knew that his brother was a shy person, so he just covered his mouth and smiled without saying anything, otherwise it would be bad if his brother got angry.

Su Man also knew the same thing, so she just smiled softly.

After Dabao discovered what Su Man and Xiaobao did, his face turned redder and he felt more and more embarrassed.

Gousheng was immersed in the new clothes on the bed. He looked dazed at first, then quickly shook his head to refuse.

"No, no! I can't take your things! These new clothes are so beautiful, you keep them for yourselves, for the New Year, I can't take them. I stay at home every day wrapped in a blanket and I won't feel cold."

Although he also wanted clean new clothes, he couldn't take other people's things for free.

"It's okay, wear it. This is a gift from Zixia and Ziqiu. You are their friend, and it's a good thing that they are willing to give it to you." Su Man said.

Xiaobao nodded repeatedly and even turned around the bed for Gousheng to see.

"Yeah, Gousheng, look at me now. All I'm wearing are new clothes and new shoes. We have a lot at home. Mom bought us so many that my brother's and my closets are full.

If you wear it, you can come and play with us. We want to give it to you. You also gave us sweet potatoes to eat before, didn’t you? "

Gousheng looked at Dabao somewhat at a loss.

Dabao nodded to him, "Put it on quickly. We also brought you some food. You should eat it quickly. It won't taste good if it gets cold."

Gousheng looked at Su Man again, because Su Man was the adult here, and he was a little afraid of Su Man.

But Su Man just smiled at him softly.

"If you consider them as your friends, then put them on. They come to see you because they consider you as their good friend. And if you often freeze without clothes like this, you will get sick. You don't want to make your sister worry, and you don't want your sister to suffer so much, right?"

Sure enough, Gousheng hesitated immediately after hearing this.

Finally, the eye circles gradually turned red.

"Thank you, auntie. Thank you, Xiaoqiu and Xiaoxia. Woo woo woo..."

As he spoke, he couldn't help crying.

It's been a long time since anyone has been so nice to him.

Su Man felt helpless. It turned out that children all love to cry.

But with Xiaobao around, Gousheng was quickly coaxed into calm and even put on new clothes.

Gousheng felt a little embarrassed after putting on new clothes, especially since Xiaobao kept saying that he looked good, which made his little face blush all the time.

But when he saw the big bowl of food that Su Man had prepared for him, his eyes turned red again and tears started to fall.

“Wuwuwu… Thank you, auntie! Thank you, auntie! Thank you, Ziqiu and Zixia, wuwuwu…”

In the end, Gousheng ate half a bowl of rice with tears in his eyes.

Although he was embarrassed, he had not worn such warm clothes or eaten a full meal for a long time. Especially the delicious food made his tongue fall off.

Su Man put in a lot, but he ate half of it and then stopped eating. He just looked at Su Man embarrassedly, his face full of confusion.
