After transmigrating, I became a stepmother.

"What do you mean by that, Steward Yang?" Lin Hao was bewildered by the sudden apology and asked in confusion.

"It was my oversight that caused the rooster's crowing to disturb Madam and Young Master. Please punish me, Madam!"

Manager Yang was uneasy, wondering if the new lady would mind. He had lived on the estate every day and was used to the sound of roosters crowing at dawn, so he hadn't expected this.

"Oh, so that's what it was about. It's nothing. It's perfectly normal for a rooster to crow in the morning. What did you do wrong?"

Lin Hao breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at how the other party had been on high alert, she had thought something terrible had happened.

But what kind of image do these people in the village have of me? That they would bother with such a trivial matter!

She needs to find out more when she has time, otherwise her image will be ruined!

"But speaking of which, what just happened? Why did the chicken squawk so pitifully later?" Lin Hao asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, the little dumpling who was drinking porridge nearby also remembered the terrifying demonic sound and couldn't help but move closer to Lin Hao, his ears quietly perking up.

Speaking of this, Steward Yang was a little embarrassed and said awkwardly, "Madam, I was afraid that the rooster's crowing would disturb you and the young master, so I wanted to order someone to catch the rooster, but I didn't expect it to still disturb you and the young master."

Lin Hao understood. It was probably because the chicken resisted desperately when it saw someone coming to catch it, which was why its cries were so shrill.

Manager Yang meant well, but he underestimated the chicken's abilities!

"Manager Yang, there's no need to be so concerned. It's not a big deal. We came to this estate to enjoy nature, and the crowing of the rooster is part of it. There's no need to take it too seriously."

"Yes, Madam is kind." Steward Yang also breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Madam didn't blame him.

"There's nothing else, Manager Yang, please go ahead and get busy!" Lin Hao didn't have any interest in having people stand there watching them eat.

"Yes, I will resign, villain."

Watching Manager Yang leave, Lin Hao turned to Gu Yu and said, "Honey, did you hear that? It really was just a rooster crowing!"

"I heard it. Mother, can we go and see?" Gu Yu heard that the crowing was not from any monster. After hearing the rooster's cry, his previous fear disappeared, and he became curious instead.

He wanted to see what a rooster looked like that could make such a terrifying sound.

"Okay, after we finish eating, we'll go see the rooster." Lin Hao nodded. It's good for children to broaden their horizons and learn about animals.

"Okay." Gu Yu nodded happily and quickened his pace of eating. He wanted to finish quickly so he could go see the rooster.

"Eat slowly, don't choke," Lin Hao advised, looking at the little dumpling's expression.

"Mmm." Gu Yu snorted, still reluctant to lift his little head off the bowl.

Lin saw that he didn't seem like he would choke, so she stopped worrying about him. Kids don't need to be taught to be like puppets, as long as their safety is ensured.

After dinner, the mother and son met up with Little Tiger and prepared to begin their first day of adventure.

First stop: Go to the place where there are big roosters.

On the way, Gu Yu leaned closer to Xiao Huzi and asked mysteriously, "Xiao Huzi, did you hear that this morning?"

"I heard that, it's terrifying!" Little Tiger said with a trembling voice.
