Transmigrated as a vicious stepmother, I raised a child who became a heartthrob.

When Jiang Ji carried the person into the house, a sweet smile even lingered on his lips.

Jiang Zhuhua stared at his peaceful sleeping face, saying nothing, but gently lowered her head and kissed his forehead.

Sleep well, baby.

Jiang Zhuhua took out a red envelope from her pocket; it was filled with cash. She had already bought red envelopes at the supermarket. For some reason, she took two.

But after midnight, neither the phone call nor the person I was waiting for came. Outside the window, snow began to fall heavily, leaving no trace, just a vast expanse of white.

The two of them had no worries about visiting relatives, and their business partners wouldn't bother them during the Chinese New Year. They slept soundly until they naturally woke up without any burden.

Jiang Zhuhua went to wake people up, then they ate oranges, exchanged some auspicious greetings, and then the two of them didn't know what to do next.

"Mom, do you want to find a boyfriend in the new year?"

Jiang Ji suddenly brought up this topic again, and Jiang Zhuhua was even a little caught off guard.

This was even more unexpected than the previous revelation of his relationship.

"Huh? Why do you say that?"

This topic came so unexpectedly that Jiang Zhuhua even wondered if someone had told him something, such as Huo Wang or Pei Hui.

"Because I feel that my mother is very lonely. If only there were someone who could make you happy."

Jiang Ji's answer was very simple. Jiang Zhuhua was a little suspicious that the child was doing it on purpose. She always spoke in the form of wanting what was best for her, but her heart softened because of these words.

“But I’m not lonely. Just because An’an doesn’t have any friends doesn’t mean she’s lonely. I have my own sphere of activity and my own ways of entertaining myself.”

Jiang Zhuhua did not want to find a partner because of the other person.

A future partner is someone you can never find for the sake of finding another person.

A connection of souls is far more important than anything else.

"But, Huo Wang."

Jiang Ji's lips trembled as if she wanted to say something, but she quickly stopped.

"Did he say anything to you?"

Jiang Zhuhua had to become wary; children are very easy to brainwash. What if the other person wanted to be with her and went so far as to brainwash a child…?

That would be rather disgusting.

"No, I miss him a little."

Jiang Ji held a soft rabbit in her arms, her eyes filled with tears, as if she had just remembered something.

"My mom loved him back then, and I liked him too, but I don't know why I ended up like this. Waaah..."

As the conversation went on, Jiang Ji began to cry softly. Her hand unconsciously pinched the rabbit's ears. She looked visibly anxious.

"This is not your fault. Besides, I don't know him that well, and I'm not so in love with him that I'd die for him."

Jiang Zhuhua felt a little speechless. She had already let go of the matter. Although she sometimes felt inexplicably annoyed when she encountered Huo Wang, it didn't matter.

"But you're about to have happiness. Everyone says that a family needs a father and a mother, and a baby makes the mother happy."

Jiang Ji was crying uncontrollably, not knowing what was making him sad. Jiang Zhuhua also didn't know who had told him these words; perhaps it was a child, or perhaps it was a parent who had said it unintentionally.

“I don’t know if you can understand what I mean, but I’m not lacking a man in my life. Even without the role of a father, we’re still quite happy, aren’t we? Although we can be flustered sometimes, we can always handle it.”

Adults have mature values ​​and sufficient thinking ability, but children are different; children are often swayed by what others say.

Jiang Zhuhua didn't know if the other party would understand what he was saying now, but there were some things he had to say.

“A mother’s value is not reflected by the father; the role of a mother has value in itself.”

Jiang Zhuhua carefully wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

“If you like him, of course you can go visit him, Mom won’t stop you. But you can’t make Mom marry him just because you like him.”

Children's logic can be so absurd at times, and Jiang Zhuhua earnestly explained to him what he believed to be the reasoning.

"Mom, if you start dating someone, you have to tell me right away, okay?"

Jiang Ji wiped away her tears and took the opportunity to make her request.

He didn't want to keep guessing; only after he guessed correctly would they be willing to tell him the truth.

"it is good."

Jiang Zhuhua made a serious promise. The reason he hadn't told Huo Wang about their brief relationship was because he hadn't thought things through.

Jiang Ji didn't seem to be able to accept it at that time.

"Stop crying, okay?"

After seeing that the other person had finally stopped crying, Jiang Zhuhua pinched his cheek and then vigorously ruffled his hair.

"I didn't cry on purpose, I just suddenly felt very sad."

Jiang Ji grinned shyly before starting to talk about what everyone was saying at the nursery.

Although he has made many friends, he is very upset when people say things about him once they find out he comes from a single-parent family.

"Baby, when you're out, don't listen to what others say. Always tell Mommy first. Trust Mommy, okay?"

Jiang Zhuhua was already quite familiar with this role, and leaned in to gently bite Jiang Ji's cheek. It was white, soft, and like cotton.

"Mom, why did you bite me?"

Jiang Ji let out an exaggerated laugh and scream, then pounced on Jiang Zhuhua and gave him a hard kiss on the face.

"I won't bite Mommy. Mommy, naughty baby is good."

Children's emotions come and go quickly. Jiang Zhuhua, however, considers things more deeply.

Public opinion can be a powerful force. She was able to help Jiang Ji manage her emotions today, but as she gets older, she will only hear more and more similar comments.

Either find a partner, or give him confidence. Or both.

Jiang Zhuhua really couldn't find a suitable partner for the time being. Huo Wang was indeed quite attractive, but he knew too little about him, not to mention his quirks.

Zhang Wuling seemed to share that sentiment, but her eyes held a certain arrogance. Jiang Zhuhua was not about to yield to her.

Moreover, according to what she found out, the other party's family also had their own businesses in other industries, but this young master, like everyone else, wanted to go out and make his own way in the world.

Jiang Zhuhua doesn't want to become someone's dependent, so if she were to find a partner, she would only look for someone similar to herself, or someone of lower social standing.

The two of them fooled around for a while longer, and then the matter was considered over. The two, one big and one small, tacitly moved on. They opened their phones, which were filled with all sorts of videos wishing each other good fortune.

"Mom, I saw the red envelope you gave me. Happy New Year."

Jiang Ji said with a smile.
