After transmigrating, I became a stepmother.

The old lady and Lin Hao were amused by his words. After laughing, they felt that the child was really heartwarming. He didn't understand anything yet, but he was still worried that his father would go hungry.

Gu Liunian felt a warmth in her heart. This child!

The little boy didn't understand why they were laughing. He only knew that his father would go hungry, but his grandmother and mother weren't worried and were still laughing. He became even more anxious and his face turned red. He ran to Gu Liunian's lap and grabbed his clothes.

"Father, don't be afraid. I have lots of pastries, you can have them all! Don't be angry with Grandmother and Mother." After thinking for a moment, she realized that her father was so old, and pastries alone might not be enough for him, so she reluctantly said, "I'll eat less rice and save it all for Father!"

Waaah, I wonder if my mother could prepare more for him?

Seeing his son's conflicted expression—clearly reluctant but still forced to make the sacrifice—Gu Liunian's heart, like a plum soaking in the sun, felt both sour and bitter, yet warm.

He picked up his son, his voice softer than ever before: "Father won't go hungry. Your mother has prepared food for me. As for your pastries and rice, you can keep them for yourself!"

The little boy's eyes lit up immediately, and his voice became cheerful: "Really?"

"Ah."

"great!"

That way he won't have to give up his beloved rice balls. The rice balls his mother prepares for him are delicious and beautiful!

Seeing him nestled happily in Gu Liunian's arms, Lin Hao said irritably, "Fine, little Gu Yu, in your heart, I'm just a bad guy who made your father go hungry, right?"

The little guy, who was laughing happily, suddenly froze. Oh no, his mother was angry!

He quickly turned around and flashed Lin Hao a big smile, flattering her, "No, no! Mother is the best, the best in the world!"

Seeing her daughter-in-law making her grandson so amused, the old lady had an idea. She immediately pretended to be sad and sighed, "Oh, if mothers are the best in the world, then grandmothers aren't so good!"

The little boy was momentarily confused, then quickly added, "Grandma is the best in the world, everything about her is wonderful!"

Looking back at his father who was holding him, the little dumpling added, "Father, Mother and Grandmother are all good, they are the best in the world!"

After saying that, the little boy breathed a sigh of relief. Hopefully, everything will be alright now! He almost forgot about his father! He wiped non-existent beads of sweat from his forehead. He thought to himself, "This is really tough! Adults are so jealous!"

Gu Liunian was speechless. Did he say anything? Why was this little guy looking at him like that?

Lin Hao and the old lady were amused by the father and son's antics; they were hilarious! Hahaha!

The little boy was secretly delighted. See? He knew it! He knew the adults would be happy if he said it that way! He's so clever!

As for why his father didn't smile, he found the perfect reason: it must be because he didn't like to smile, something he already knew! He was a sensible child who knew he couldn't force others to do things they didn't like.

The little guy shook his head and wiggled his short legs proudly. It was so comfortable in his father's arms, not as soft and sweet as his mother's, but he was much bigger and could move around freely!

Seeing how happy the little guy was, the adults exchanged glances, none of them saying anything to him, just letting him be smug!

"I made another one. I'll check the results tomorrow. If it's good, I'll teach the method to Mo Ran!"
