The room is filled with everyday items; though simple, it exudes a sense of life and makes one feel exceptionally warm and cozy.

"Dongzi, please sit down, please sit down."

As Chen Meiju spoke, she got busy with her tasks.

She walked briskly to the cabinet, carefully opened the door, and took out an exquisite teapot.

The teapot is light blue, with a few elegant orchids painted on it, and it is clear at a glance that it has been carefully treasured by its owner.

Then, she pulled out a box of tea that she had treasured for a long time. The tea was sealed in a small tin box.

Upon opening the box, a rich aroma of tea instantly filled the air.

Chen Meiju skillfully began brewing tea.

She slowly poured hot water into the teapot, and as the steam rose, the aroma of the tea became even more intense.

After brewing the tea, Chen Meiju immediately took out some fresh fruit from the cupboard.

There are bright red apples, golden oranges, and glistening purple grapes.

She brought over a basin of clean water and carefully washed the fruit one by one, her movements as gentle as if she were handling rare treasures.

After washing the fruit, she placed it on the cutting board, picked up a knife, and began to cut it.

With skillful knife work, the fruit was quickly cut into even small pieces and neatly arranged on a plate.

Chen Dong watched his second aunt's busy figure, his heart filled with emotion, and his eyes reddened slightly.

He quickly said, "Second Aunt, don't bother. I just came to see you. You can rest for a while and chat with me."

"I feel really bad that you're so busy."

Without looking up, Chen Meiju continued working, smiling as she said, "That won't do."

"You've come all this way, your second aunt must treat you well."

"Just sit still, it'll be over in a bit. You're a big contributor to our family now, it's nothing for your aunt to help you out."

Helpless, Chen Dong could only sit in the chair and watch his second aunt busy at work.

He felt a mix of emotions, including gratitude for his aunt's care and heartache for her hard work.

Before long, the tea was brewed and the fruit was cut, which Chen Meiju placed in front of Chen Dong.

"Dongzi, try this tea. Your father bought it for me when he came to visit, saying it tastes good."

"And this fruit is so fresh. I picked it out at the market early this morning. Have some."

Chen Meiju looked at Chen Dong with anticipation and concern in her eyes.

Chen Dong picked up the teacup, took a small sip, and the rich aroma of the tea spread in his mouth.

She praised, "Mmm, this tea tastes really good, Second Aunt, your skills are still so excellent."

"Please sit down, have some fruit with me, and tell me about your family. I'm really worried about you."

Upon hearing this, Chen Meiju's face immediately lit up with joy and excitement.

She plopped down next to Chen Dong and started talking: "Dongzi, you have no idea."

"Since we got this chicken farm, my status in my husband's family compound has been greatly elevated."

“In the past, they didn’t think much of me and thought I was just a useless housewife.”

“But things are different now. You pay me 500 yuan a month, and I also get a bonus of more than 600 yuan after tax at the end of the year.”

"This income is equivalent to what your uncle's two older brothers earn!"

As she spoke, she gestured with her hands, her smile growing ever brighter.

Chen Meiju became more and more excited as she spoke, her face beaming with a proud smile.

“Your uncle’s eldest brother, Xu Juren, and his sister-in-law, Liu Fangfang, and his second brother, Xu Maocai, and his sister-in-law, Li Dongdong.”

“They used to always criticize me, saying I couldn’t do this or that.”

"They didn't treat me like a human being, they treated me like a maid, and all I did every day was clean, wash clothes and cook."

"Now look what's happened, they're all speechless."

"Your uncle, Scholar Xu, no longer dares to order me around."

"They're still not entirely happy that I haven't moved back home, especially since I've been living at the chicken farm with my son and daughter."

"However, he didn't dare to say much, after all, I earn just as much money as him."

"As for my in-laws, there's nothing to say. I'm worth two sons on my own, so they have no reason to find fault with me anymore."

Chen Dong listened, smiled and nodded, saying, "Second Aunt, this is all the result of your own hard work."

"You're so capable, running the chicken farm so well. I knew you could do it!"

Chen Meiju quickly waved her hand: "Dongzi, you can't say that."

"If you hadn't given me ten thousand yuan to start this chicken farm, I wouldn't be where I am today."

"My second aunt is truly grateful to you; you are her great benefactor."

Chen Dong smiled and waved his hand, saying, "This is all thanks to your hard work, Aunt. I only contributed about ten thousand yuan at the beginning."

"If you don't have the ability, no amount of money will help."

But Chen Meiju remained full of gratitude, repeatedly expressing her thanks, her eyes filled with sincerity.

After a pause, Chen Dong's expression turned serious, and he changed the subject, saying, "Second Aunt, there's something I want to tell you."

"I plan to give this chicken farm to you. You can treat it as your own business and manage it well."

"From now on, this will be your business. You can do whatever you want with it."

Upon hearing this, Chen Meiju was taken aback. Her eyes widened, and her face was filled with surprise and rejection. She quickly declined.

"Dongzi, this won't do! This chicken farm is yours. Your aunt is just helping you manage it. How can she take it from you? Absolutely not!"

"Why did you suddenly have this idea, child?"

Chen Dong patiently explained, "Second Aunt, please listen to me. I'm currently running a high-tech company in Beiping and also a pig farm. I'm really too busy to manage everything."

“I won’t have the energy to manage this chicken farm in the future. You see, you’ve managed it so well, I feel at ease leaving it in your hands.”

"Just treat it like your own child and take good care of it."

Chen Meiju shook her head repeatedly: "No, no, Dongzi, this chicken farm is your hard work, your second aunt can't take it."

"You're still young, you might need this in the future."

Chen Dong thought for a moment and then said, "Second Aunt, how about this?"

“We will incorporate this chicken farm company into the business scope of the multi-birth pig farm.”

"Coincidentally, the business scope of my multi-birth breeding company includes chicken farming."

"What do you think? This way, the chicken farm can have better development."

Chen Meiju listened and did not object. She nodded and said, "This is your company. You can do whatever you want with it. Your second aunt has no objection."

"As long as the chicken farm gets better and better, your second aunt will support you."

Immediately afterwards, Chen Dong suggested, "Second Aunt, let's set up a company for the chicken farm. I'll invest another 100,000 yuan to expand the scale of the chicken farm."
