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

Su Ding was beaten even when he was over 40 years old, which shows that Su Bingcheng was subjected to corporal punishment when he was a child.

Now that it's Lili's generation's turn, the old man is saying again that children shouldn't be hit.

Lin Zhilan silently put down her chopsticks and raised her hand, "Dad, I was the one who hit him."

Jiang Chengzhou also stood up. "Grandpa, I got a call too."

Su Bingcheng choked for a moment.

He could criticize Su Lang, but he couldn't say anything bad about his daughter-in-law and eldest grandson, so he froze on the spot.

Fortunately, Xu Yueyun came to his rescue in time, asking, "Did Lili get into some trouble?"

"Yes," Su Bingcheng continued, "What did he do wrong?"

Su Lang laughed and said, "The kids outside were setting off firecrackers. They lit them but they didn't go off, so your precious grandson went to pick up their duds."

Xu Yueyun was startled. "Did it explode?"

Su Bingcheng's expression also changed.

"No." Su Lang shook her head.

Xu Yueyun breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Lang smiled at Su Bingcheng and said, "Dad, did your grandson deserve that beating?"

Su Bingcheng opened his mouth, then silently walked back.

Xu Yueyun glanced at her husband with amusement, then suddenly said to Su Lang, "You used to pick up other people's duds when you were little."

Su Lang denied it, "Impossible, how come I don't remember?"

"Don't you remember? You were older than Lili is now back then, maybe four or five years old. When others were setting off firecrackers, you were watching from the side. One of the small firecrackers was lit but didn't go off. When others tried to pick it up, you were faster and picked it up first."

Su Jue seemed to remember something, "I remember, the firecracker in Xiao Lang's hand exploded."

Xu Yueyun laughed and said, "That's right. Luckily, that little cannon wasn't very powerful, and you let go quickly. But it still burned a black blister on your palm. Fortunately, Jiajia was smart and knew to take you to the hospital in time, so it didn't leave any scars."

Linlin came over and examined her father's large hands, but she couldn't see any marks.

Lin Zhilan rolled her eyes at Su Lang, "So that's why Su Li is so mischievous. Turns out she takes after you."

Su Lang touched his nose. "Did I get beaten up back then?"

Xu Yueyun glanced at Jiang Chengzhou. "Your sister hit you. Your dad and I were both busy back then and didn't have time to discipline you. Jiajia was in charge of all three of you when you were little."

Su Jia is the eldest among her sisters, and she has been smart and sensible since childhood.

Su Ding and Su Jue were one thing, but Su Lang had a somewhat unruly personality since childhood, and he would either listen to Xu Yueyun or Su Bingcheng or not.

Only Su Jia could keep him in check.

Even if Su Jia hits or scolds him, Su Lang still has the best relationship with his sister.

Xu Yueyun patted her eldest grandson's head and said with emotion, "Your mother was very powerful when she was a child. If she said east, your uncle wouldn't dare to say west."

Jiang Chengzhou has lived on an island for most of his life since he can remember, and this is the first time he has heard his uncle and mother's story from his maternal grandmother.

Jiang Chengzhou felt inexplicably strange.

He glanced at Su Li in Su Lang's arms.

This little thing is said to have taken after his uncle.

Su Li smacked her lips in her sleep.

Alas……

Jiang Chengzhou withdrew his gaze.

Su Li's mouth watered.

Starting that night, Lin Zhilan keenly noticed that the way the two brothers interacted had undergone some subtle changes.

Su Li is still the same silly Su Li, always chasing after her older brother and sister, not caring about being disliked.

But Chiang Cheng-chou is different.

His relationship with his brother didn't suddenly improve.

Lin Zhilan felt that he seemed to be observing Su Li.

As time went on, Su Li herself realized it.

He ran up to Lin Zhilan and whispered something to her, smiling shyly, "Brother, you like me."

Lin Zhilan smiled but didn't say anything.

Your brother might not like you.

Your brother wants to study you.

The family enjoyed a happy reunion for the New Year. Because her two daughters were happy, Deng Jing's attitude towards Su Jue improved somewhat.

Lin Zhilan was still thinking to herself how soft-hearted her second sister-in-law was when Su Jue approached him alone.

"Do you want to get back to normal work as soon as possible?" Lin Zhilan asked in surprise.

Although Lin Zhilan didn't inquire, she knew that Su Lang was still doing written work after arriving on the island.

People often come to collect documents, but they always do so through Lu Gang.

Lin Zhilan changed her tone, "Second brother, your body hasn't fully recovered yet. If you can maintain your previous work routine, I still suggest you stay on the island for a while longer."

Su Jue shook his head, "There are some things I have to personally go and survey. Staying on the island all the time is definitely not an option."

"So eager?" Lin Zhilan frowned. "Have you considered what your second sister-in-law might think?"

Su Jue was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I'm bad with words, I don't know how to coax her. I can't neglect my work, I promised her that I would return to the capital after this project is finished."

I've let Xiaojing and the two children down over the years, and I don't want to keep telling them the story of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf." Right now, all I can do is finish the project as soon as possible and go home to be with them.

Lin Zhilan shook her head. "Second brother, your wife and the children have waited for you for so many years. Do you think she's still angry about this?"

Su Jue was stunned for a moment.

Lin Zhilan continued, "She's angry that you don't cherish your health. If something happens to you, your second sister-in-law will be really angry."

Su Jue opened his mouth.

He knew this, and he was very grateful for his wife's kindness.

But he had responsibilities on his shoulders, and his colleagues were still fighting hard; no one was having an easy time.

Su Jue enjoyed a rare period of relaxation during her time on the island.

But the more relaxed he felt, the more he missed work.

He cannot comfortably enjoy his free time.

Lin Zhilan's eyes darted around. "Second brother, you're lucky this time, but you might not be so lucky next time. If you're not alive... you know what I'm like, I'll definitely try to persuade your wife to remarry."

"Zhilan..." Su Jue said helplessly, as if pleading for mercy.

Lin Zhilan ignored him and turned to Lu Gang, asking, "Comrade Lu, do you have a girlfriend yet?"

Lu Gang was caught off guard by the question and paused for a moment before replying, "Not yet."

"Zhilan!" Su Jue shouted, not daring to let her continue.

Lin Zhilan shrugged and said to Lu Gang, "It's nothing, just kidding."

Lu Gang: "..."

Don't make jokes about being single.

Su Jue: "..."

Lin Zhilan sniffed and smiled at Su Jue, "I asked Lu Gang not for any other reason than to tell you that if my second sister-in-law hadn't chosen to marry you, she might be living a much better life now."

Su Jue's work wasn't a one- or two-year affair, and Deng Jing practically raised the two children on her own.

Lin Zhilan and Su Jue, who are raising three children on their own, with the help of Aunt Yu and their parents-in-law, sometimes feel exhausted.

Lin Zhilan was simply speaking from a woman's perspective, feeling sorry for Deng Jing.

Seeing Su Jue remain silent, Lin Zhilan sighed, "The big boss said that health is the foundation of everything. If you lose your life, you won't be able to do your job or maintain your family."

Su Jue sighed, "I understand what you mean. I won't joke around with my body anymore."

"So you're still insisting on not taking any more care of your health?"
