Reborn before the famine, kicking away the scumbag's family and living a carefree life.

“Our house is spacious enough that we have a room dedicated to storing the soil and tools for growing vegetables.”

As Su Jinru spoke, she put all the soil into her spatial storage.

Yuan Wenjie took off his gloves.

"You are the head of this household. You make the decisions. You can do whatever you want."

They drove home, and it was already getting dark.

Su Jinru removed all the soil from the space and placed it in a special empty room.

"Ah Jie, you've been busy all day, go wash your hands and rest! I need to put all this soil into the bucket, and we'll start planting vegetables tomorrow."

"You! Your eyes light up with excitement whenever you talk about growing vegetables."

"Growing vegetables is where my value lies, it's the foundation of my life in this world. So, when I'm growing vegetables, I feel at ease, at peace, and comfortable."

“Aru, your value is more than just this. You are the light of our family, warming and illuminating everyone in the family. Even if you do nothing and don’t need to create any value for this family, your very existence is the greatest value to this family.”

Yuan Wenjie's words made Su Jinru feel like crying.

For many people, marriage is simply a matter of exchanging value.

A person who has no value in the worldly sense is not worthy of the love of others.

Let alone couples, even between parents and children, those who have no value will not receive preferential treatment or attention.

"What's wrong, Aru?"

“Ah Jie, I remember a mother and child I knew before. The child was diagnosed with cerebral palsy shortly after birth. The husband advised his wife to give up the child, but the mother couldn’t bear to! So the man abandoned them and ran away.”

"This mother has always been there for her child, never abandoning him. Every evening after dinner, she takes her son, who walks unsteadily, for a walk, and the two of them laugh and chat happily along the way."

"People laugh at this mother, saying, 'What's the use of having such a child? You might as well find someone else and have a healthy child.'"

"This mother said that no matter what her son is like, she will love him and will not abandon him, because his existence is the greatest value to her."

As Su Jinru spoke, tears streamed down her face.

This was a mother and son she had met in her previous life. The mother's unconditional love for her son deeply moved Su Jinru.

Many people cannot understand that mother.

However, Su Jinru understands that if she were that mother, she would love her child in the same way, without expecting anything in return, without discrimination.

Su Jinru believes that there are very few mothers in the world who can love their children in that way.

But she doesn't believe that there can be such pure, selfless love between men and women.

Yuan Wenjie pulled Su Jinru's hand and wrapped it in his large hand.

"Why are you crying? Because you've never been loved so unconditionally before. Conversely, if one day I get old and can't do anything anymore, meaning I have no value in any worldly sense, will you abandon me, give up on me, or despise me?"

"No matter what you become, I will never give up on you or despise you."

"Yes! I believe you can do it, and I can do the same for you. Do you believe I can?"

Su Jinru nodded.

Yuan Wenjie wiped away her tears with his hand.

"So, don't work so hard. If you're tired, lie down and rest. If you don't want to cook, just buy something to eat outside. Do what you want to do whenever you want, and don't do what you don't want to do."

"Don't always put yourself under so much pressure. You keep working because you're afraid that you're worthless, so you can't stop. You're afraid to stop because you want to earn lots and lots of money to prove your worth."

“You already have so much money, but you dare not stop, dare not let yourself relax. Even if you don’t earn money, can’t I still support you? Won’t your four children take care of you in the future? Will they let you starve to death?”

His words deeply touched Su Jinru.

Her tears started falling again.

It turns out, he understood her better than she did.

Yes! Even if she had nothing, he would not abandon her or despise her, because he is a responsible and dependable man.

In her later years in her previous life, she was almost penniless, but her two children were filial to her, providing her with plenty of food and clothing and a carefree life.

So why can't she live a more relaxed and carefree life?

On the surface, she thought she had lived a very comfortable and carefree life.

In reality, an outsider's perspective is clearer; she was very nervous inside, always feeling like she was on edge.

Yuan Wenjie's words awakened Su Jinru.

She felt relaxed and light all over, every cell in her body was relaxed.

"Alright! I'll work on this soil slowly tomorrow!"

“You don’t need to work so hard all by yourself. When the children come, let them do the work.”

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

……

The following afternoon, Yuan Wenjie had nothing to do, so he accompanied Su Jinru shopping.

They arrived at a market where people were selling puppies.

One of them was a small black mongrel with big, watery eyes that seemed to be able to talk.

Su Jinru stood there.

"This little black dog reminds me of Hei Zi. Ah Jie, how about we buy this little black dog?"

"After Hei Zi left, Ruo Chen and Ruo Xi were very sad. Buying this puppy will definitely make them very happy."

"But this dog is not Heizi, and it cannot replace Heizi."

"But at least it can make them transfer their feelings here! That way, they won't miss Kuroko."

"Let's ask them! If they want it, we'll buy it; if they don't, we won't."

Su Jinru didn't know why Yuan Wenjie was against it; he had always supported her in buying whatever she wanted.

Moreover, he dotes on the children even more than she does.

The children are very sad to lose Kuroko, so they would be happy to get a new puppy!

However, Su Jinru knew that Yuan Wenjie had his reasons for everything he did, so she stopped insisting.

The two continued walking forward.

"Dad, Mom, what are you doing here?"

Ruoxi appeared out of nowhere, followed by Anran, Ruochen, and finally Anxin and Luo Xingguo.

"Ruoxi, Ruochen, there's a little black dog over there. Let's go take a look. If you like it, we'll buy it."

Ruoxi shook her head.

"Mom, we just saw that little black dog. My eldest brother said he wanted to buy it and raise it, but I don't want it, and neither does my second brother."

Su Jinru asked in surprise, "Why? Don't you like dogs?"

"But that's not a black cat."

Su Jinru glanced at Yuan Wenjie.

"That's not a hater, but it's quite cute."

"No matter how cute it is, it can't replace Kuroko. I will never raise a dog again in my life."
