You really don't know how to calculate things, kid. You are good to your daughter. When she grows up, will she not be good to you, her own mother? When she grows up, will she not help her parents' family?

If you give her a bite of food, will she be good to you when she grows up? If she gets married, she will never return to her parents' home. Do you think a one-time deal or a long-term one is better?"

If Liu Pandi hadn't said this, given Shen Xue's personality, she would probably just give her a bite to eat. It would be fine if she just gave her a bite to eat, but he was afraid that she would abuse Daya.

After she said this, Shen Xue began to have some concerns about what she wanted to do with the child.

After her mother said this, Shen Xue thought about it seriously for a while. After thinking for a long time, she felt that her mother was right and she should be nicer to Daya.

"Oh, mother, what are you talking about? Daya is my own daughter. If I don't treat her well, who else can I treat well?

I'm not a stepmother, what can I do to her? Don't worry, I will treat Daya well in the future."

When Shen Xue said "Good girl" to Daya, it was because she was hungry. Shen Xue would not pretend not to hear and would feed her daughter.

I also remember to help my daughter take a bath. At least Daya doesn’t look as dirty as before.

When Mr. and Mrs. Shen were in the army, they missed their family. Now that they are back home, they start to miss their eldest granddaughter and great-granddaughter who are also in the army.

"Guaibao doesn't have any elders around to help, and I don't know if she is busy enough to take care of the child herself.

It’s so hard to take care of a child. My dear, you have never suffered since you were a child. The child is small and prone to crying. What if you can’t take care of the child?

Chunling, why don’t you go to the army in a couple of days? I’m worried about Shuyu taking care of the child by herself.”

"Mom, didn't Shu Yu say that if she was too busy, she would write a letter home.

It's not nice for a married couple to live together while I, as an aunt, stay here all the time. I'll pack up and go over after Shu Yu and her family agree."

Jiandong cares about his wife and children, but Shen Chunling is not as worried as her mother.

When Shu Yu was in confinement after childbirth, she really needed someone to take care of her. Now that she is out of confinement, her body has recovered well, and Xiaoze is a well-behaved child. Shen Chunling feels that there is no problem for her eldest niece and her husband to take care of a little baby.

"That's fine too. Bring me some paper and pen and write a letter to my dear. I haven't seen Xiaoze in a few days. I miss him so much. He's become so popular."

When they came back, Shen Shuyu took a lot of photos of her son, developed them, and asked her grandparents to bring them back to show their family.

After showing the photos to her family, Old Mrs. Shen went to the cowshed and asked her in-laws to see the child as well.

After seeing the photos of the children, Yang Zhen and Liang Jun felt more motivated to work than usual.

Everything is fine at home, and everything is also fine for Shen Shuyu in the army.

After her grandparents and second aunt went back, Shen Shuyu was indeed not as comfortable as she was during the confinement period. She had to look after the child all the time. Shen Shuyu had to carry her son on her back whenever she did something.

However, Shen Shuyu didn't feel it was hard work. Gu Jiandong was the one who made the child's diapers and did all the housework.

When Gu Jiandong is too busy with the vegetable garden, he will call his good brother Jiang Ziqiang to come and water the vegetables.

Shen Shuyu needs to take care of the children and cook a meal occasionally, but she doesn't have to do anything else.

As long as Gu Jiandong is at home, Shen Shuyu doesn't need to take care of the child.

When school started, Shen Shuyu got permission from the principal before bringing her child to work. Except for the first and second days when the child would cry when he heard the bell for classes, he got used to the bell after hearing it for a while.

Shen Shuyu carried him on her back to class. The child didn't cry or make a fuss, and didn't affect her class at all.

"Teacher Shen, I won't come to school tomorrow." Shen Shuyu's student Li Lehua stepped forward.

This child is the quietest girl in the class and also the best student. Seeing her red eyes, Shen Shuyu asked softly, "Lehua, is there something wrong at home?"

"My mother gave birth to a younger brother, and my grandmother said it was useless for girls to study so much, because when they grow up they will marry into another family.

It’s enough to just be able to write your own name when reading. There’s no need to read so many books. My grandma didn’t let me go to school anymore and told me to stay home and take care of my younger brother.”

Li Lehua is a child from a nearby village. The military school is close by, so all the children from the surrounding area come here to study.

Li Lehua knows that the opportunity to study is hard-earned, so she cherishes her chance to go to school. She usually attends classes more seriously than other students and never gets distracted.

While her classmates would go out to play after class, she would sit at her desk quietly doing her homework and also preview the content she would learn in the next class in advance.

It was originally a happy thing for her mother to give birth to a younger brother, but when she heard that she could no longer go to school, Li Lehua came to school crying.

Hearing Li Lehua's words, Shen Shuyu frowned. It is normal nowadays for older children to take care of younger brothers and sisters.

"Your grandma said that you can't study, so what's your parents' attitude?"

Li Lehua cried and said, "My parents don't agree, but my grandmother is the head of the family and all the money is in her hands. There's nothing I can do if my parents don't agree."

"Be good, don't cry. The teacher will come to your house tomorrow and won't let you go without studying."

Shen Shuyu asked about Li Lehua's family situation and went back to the office to talk about it with other teachers. When the other teachers heard that she was going to make a home visit, they were not very supportive of her going.

"We have all been to Li Lehua's home. Her grandmother is a fierce person. She is not a delicate girl like you.

If you go to her home, she'll turn the tables and accuse you of corrupting her granddaughter. She might even make a scene and ask you to pay her money or eggs. You won't get through to an unreasonable old lady."
