The Koi Wife of the Prime Minister

After she took her younger brother and sister home, she began to busy herself with preparing dinner.

In between cooking, she thought about how to use her abilities more effectively to increase income for her family.

"Maybe I could try to find some temporary work around town."

Shen Yan thought to herself. She knew that although this would increase her workload, it would be worth it as long as she could earn more money for her family.

As dinner was ready, the children's mood finally improved.

Shen Yan feels the warmth and happiness of her family. She knows very well that no matter what others think, as long as she has good intentions and works hard for the future of herself and her children, that is the most important thing.

"When mom was around, I always wanted to eat braised pork."

Wang Jun burst into tears while eating, and sobbed uncontrollably. However, Second Aunt Wang had never eaten any braised pork at all, and she died in such a miserable way.

Shen Yan wiped his tears and comforted him, "Jun'er, study hard and have a promising future. Your mother's spirit in heaven will see it and will be very pleased."

Wang Jun cried and nodded, "Sister, I will repay you, thank you for taking me in."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Shen Yan felt embarrassed. "Just treat me as your biological sister. It is my duty to raise you two. I am happy to do so. What is there to say? You don't need to care what others say."

Wang Jun looked at Shen Yan gratefully, with gratitude and determination flashing in his eyes.

He knew that Shen Yan's kindness to them came from the heart, and he was determined to study hard and repay Shen Yan's kindness in the future.

Shen Yan felt warm in her heart. She did not expect Wang Jun to do anything in return. She just hoped that they could grow up healthy and happy. This was enough.

After dinner, Shen Yan and the children sat around the table, and a warm atmosphere filled the whole house.

They chatted and laughed, sharing each other's feelings and expectations.

The next day, Shen Yan decided to go to the town to find some temporary work.

She knew that it would be a busy and difficult time, but she was willing to work hard for the future of her children.

In town, Shen Yan found a small restaurant and they needed temporary help.

Shen Yan accepted the job without hesitation. Although the working hours were long and the salary was not high, she was grateful because it meant she could add some income to her family.

Moreover, Shen Yan thought that she could also learn their skills in making snacks, and then set up her own stall in the future to earn money to support her family.

When she got home, Shen Yan told her children that she had found a job. Although they were a little worried, they still expressed their understanding and support.

They knew that Shen Yan worked so hard for their own good.

As the days go by, although Shen Yan's work is hard, she remains optimistic and strong.

After all, Shen Yan knew that such hard times were only temporary and things would get better in the future.

After a busy few days, the fifteenth is almost here.

Shen Yan was busy preparing for the festival, and the house was in a state of chaos.

Wang Jun and Wang Lin also stopped going to school as the school was on holiday.

Shen Yan took the two children to the back mountain to burn paper for Aunt Wang and her husband.

She said to Wang Jun, "Hold Lin'er by your hand, and we will burn more paper money for your parents. I hope they can live well over there."

Wang Jun and Wang Lin nodded, and then burst into tears.

Shen Yan brought Wang Jun and Wang Lin to the back mountain. Along the way, the warm spring sun shone among the leaves, and the breeze gently caressed the faces of the three, bringing a touch of freshness and tranquility.

The cemetery on the back mountain is not wide, but it is quiet and secluded, surrounded by dense woods.

Shen Yan found the grave of Aunt Wang and her husband, with their names engraved on a simple tombstone.

There were already some paper money burned by others in front of the tomb, and a faint fragrance could be smelled.

Shen Yan first led Wang Jun and Wang Lin to bow three times to express their remembrance and respect for their deceased parents.

Then, she instructed Wang Jun to lead Wang Lin to light bundles of paper money and slowly place them in front of the tomb.

The paper money slowly rises and dances in the air, as if it is a blessing sent to heaven.

"Mom and Dad, we miss you."

Wang Jun's voice was choked with sobs and longing, "We will study hard and make a name for ourselves when we grow up, so that you can rest assured."

Wang Lin wiped her tears and said softly, "Mom and Dad, I will be obedient and not let Sister Shen worry."

Shen Yan gently patted their shoulders, her eyes full of warmth and understanding. "Dad and mom in heaven will definitely hear what you say, and will be proud of your growth."

After the paper money was burned, they sat in front of the grave, quietly looking into the distance, their hearts filled with complicated emotions. Shen Yan held the children's hands tightly, comforting them gently, letting them feel the warmth of home and the power of family affection.

As the sun set, they slowly left the cemetery and returned home.

Although this day is filled with sadness, it is also filled with hope for the future and cherishment of family affection.

They know that no matter what happens, they will have each other's backs and face life's challenges together.

After returning home, Song Yunfeng also came back and was preparing to cook.

"Ma'am, are you back?"

"What are you doing?" Shen Yan was so scared that she quickly snatched the spatula from Song Yunfeng's hand, "Don't cook, let me do it!"

Shen Yan disliked Song Yunfeng for not knowing how to cook and was unwilling to ask him for help.

Song Yunfeng seemed to be a little hit, and seemed a little disappointed: "Madam, I finally have a day off today and don't have to go to the county government office, but you won't let me help you cook?"

Shen Yan rolled her eyes: "Watch and help me."

"Okay!" Song Yunfeng agreed readily.

"What do you want to eat?" Shen Yan turned around and asked the two children.

Wang Lin thought for a moment and said, "I want to eat something light."

Shen Yan thought for a moment and said, "Then let's cook white radish and meat."

Shen Yan picked up the knife and skillfully processed the white radish. She first peeled the white radish and then cut it into even small pieces. Although the shape was irregular, it exuded a fresh scent. The children quietly observed her movements, their eyes full of anticipation and curiosity about the food.

Shen Yan put the processed white radish into the pot, then added an appropriate amount of water and some seasonings such as ginger slices, green onion segments and cooking wine, filling the entire kitchen with an enticing aroma.

Next, she took out the prepared pork, cut it into even-sized pieces, and put it into the pot.

The aroma of cooking meat spreads in the kitchen, making you salivate.

Shen Yan gently stirred the ingredients in the pot to make them blend evenly.

Although her movements were simple, every step was full of tenderness and delicacy, as if expressing her deep love for her family.

The children sat quietly by, their eyes sparkling with anticipation.

They know that Shen Yan is not only a responsible sister, but also a gentle and caring chef.
