After transmigrating into the body of the female supporting character's biological mother, she

"Okay, then add some more rock sugar."

Lin Zhilan rummaged through the cabinet for rock sugar, instructing Su Lang, "Take the two children to wash their hands, and tell Mom and Dad to prepare dinner."

Su Lang instructed Jiang Chengzhou, "Go and take your sister to wash her hands."

Lin Zhilan glared at him, "All you do is boss the kids around!"

Su Lang laughed, "What's the point of raising children if you don't use them to do things?"

He handed the spoon to Linlin, who had just finished washing her hands, and said, "Here, go and share it with Grandpa and Grandma."

"Okay."

Linlin happily accepted it, as if she had received some kind of mission.

Jiang Chengzhou stood there, listening to his uncle's instructions.

Su Lang gave him a light kick on the butt, annoyed. "What are you standing there for? Go watch over your little sister, don't break the spoon."

"Oh." Jiang Chengzhou paused for a moment, then laughed and ran out.

Su Lang stole a kiss on his wife's cheek and chuckled, "The more you try to appease the child, the more suspicious he'll become. Chengzhou is a shrewd fellow; if you try to make amends to him, he'll feel guilty."

"What compensation mentality?" Lin Zhilan pretended not to understand. "Chengzhou has us; why would it need compensation?"

To be honest, Lin Zhilan did feel sorry for the child.

My mother died early, and my father was that kind of person.

Jiang Jinzhu was indeed thinking of him, but he was not only Chengzhou's grandfather, but also Jiang Yinzhu's father.

Such relatives...

Lin Zhilan, from an outsider's perspective, simply described it as troublesome.

She used to only know how to study.

Although they yearn for family affection, the awkwardness far outweighs the warmth when actually interacting with their parents.

Jiang Yinzhu is easy to talk about, but he doesn't deserve to be a father at all.

Lin Zhilan supports Chengzhou and does not acknowledge him.

And what about Jiang Jinzhu, this grandfather?

If you can't say he's bad, at least he managed to save all his savings and leave them to Chengzhou.

He has good qualities, but the estrangement of these past years cannot be bridged overnight.

Lin Zhilan felt a sense of empathy.

Just like her parents.

It's neither purely bad nor purely good.

Sometimes I think it would be better to just be completely bad to her, so that I would have a reason and the courage to cut ties cleanly.

Seeing that she looked somewhat melancholy, Su Lang pulled her aside.

"I kind of regret bringing you back," Su Lang sighed, nuzzling her head with his chin.

Lin Zhilan shook her head, trying to shake off her bad mood.

"It's okay," she said, pinching Su Lang's waist hard. "This isn't our main way of life, and it's nothing to Chengzhou and me!"

Su Lang: "...So why did you pinch me?"

Lin Zhilan glanced at him, "What's the point of getting married if you don't beat up your husband? What's the point then?"

She holds grudges very well.

She was still thinking about what Su Lang had said about the child.

"Okay," Su Lang grabbed her hand, kissed it, and said, "Pinch me if you want, whatever makes you happy. I'm most afraid of you being unhappy."

He was telling the truth.

The longer Su Lang and Lin Zhilan spent together...

The more you understand her charm, the more you realize it.

In his heart, there was nothing wrong with Lin Zhilan.

She's almost like a fairy.

Su Lang used to jokingly say that he wanted to marry a fairy, but now that he actually did, he was somewhat apprehensive.

I feel he should cherish his good fortune.

We must ensure that the fairies and little fairies are happy every day.

Otherwise, if someone else ascends to become an immortal, he won't even have a wife or daughter to look for.

Su Lang believed that Lin Zhilan had this ability.

If she wanted to leave with her daughter, Su Lang couldn't stop her.

Thinking of this, Su Lang subconsciously pulled his wife closer.

Lin Zhilan was amused by his helpless expression. "Go, go, go get me some porridge. Stop joking around here."

"Porridge needs to be cooked longer to make it more fragrant. You pinched me and it hurts, I need to hug you for a while to feel better."

"You're so glib," Lin Zhilan scolded playfully.

Su Lang chuckled, "With all my heart."

The two of them cuddled together like that, while the porridge bubbled and steamed in the pot, its sweet aroma growing stronger and stronger.

"Uncle! Aunt!"

Jiang Chengzhou's loud voice came from outside, completely shattering the romantic atmosphere in the kitchen.

Lin Zhilan quickly pushed Su Lang away and tidied her messy hair.

Su Lang raised the corners of her mouth, "It's nothing, I can't tell."

Lin Zhilan bit her lip. "Aren't you going to serve the porridge?"

Jiang Chengzhou poked his head out from outside the door. "Aunt, did you call me?"

"Hmm..." Lin Zhilan turned her back to serve the porridge, hiding the blush on her face. "You can go out first. The porridge is too hot. Your uncle can help you."

"All right."

Jiang Chengzhou looked at Su Lang suspiciously.

Su Lang glared at him.

You brat!

Jiang Chengzhou made a face at him, and then ran towards the living room before Su Lang could make a move.

Hearing the commotion behind her, Lin Zhilan looked over in confusion. "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, someone's just asking for trouble." Su Lang took the plate from her hand. "Go sit down outside, I'll take it."

Lin Zhilan did not refuse.

The two entered the kitchen one after the other.

Today's lunch was delayed by an hour or two because of this Laba porridge.

Xu Yueyun was peeling pumpkin seeds for Linlin and patting her little mouth.

When the porridge was brought out, Linlin immediately took her grandmother's hand and walked towards the dining table.

"Mom, you're amazing! It smells so good!"

The little girl provided plenty of emotional support.

Lin Zhilan bent down and kissed her little face. "Thank you for the compliment, baby. You must eat more later."

Okay.

The family sat together.

Each person had a bowl of hot Laba porridge in front of them.

The porridge was made with care and time; you can tell as soon as you taste it.

In the past, people made Laba porridge for good luck.

Lin Zhilan, however, aimed to make it taste good.

The thick porridge was cooked until it was translucent.

The various ingredients inside are cooked until soft, sticky, and sandy; a sip melts on the tongue.

The amount of rock sugar was just right, not too sweet or cloying.

The warm porridge slid into my stomach, making me feel comfortable all over. It was made with high-quality ingredients, and after finishing a bowl, I felt full.

In the end, only Su Lang and Jiang Chengzhou had another bowl.

The uncle and nephew naturally took care of cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks.

While washing the dishes, Su Lang suddenly said, "Your grandfather is fine. He'll stay in the hospital for about half a month and be able to be discharged once he's fully recovered."

"Hmm." Jiang Chengzhou lowered his head, so his expression was not visible.

He and his sister have been upstairs all day.

The room's window faces the street directly outside.

He personally witnessed Jiang Jinzhu being carried into the car.

Jiang Chengzhou had mixed feelings.

He was a kind-hearted child; he just wanted Jiang Jinzhu to stay away from him and didn't want anything to happen to Jiang Jinzhu.

Hearing his uncle's words, his anxious heart calmed down a bit.

Su Lang handed him the washed dishes and chopsticks and told him to put them in the cupboard.

He casually added, "Your grandfather promised that he won't fight me and your aunt for custody of you anymore."

"Hmm?" Jiang Chengzhou looked up at his uncle.

Su Lang couldn't help but pat his head. "You can rest assured now, no one will take you away."

Jiang Chengzhou frowned.

Su Lang asked in confusion, "Why aren't you happy yet?"
