Chapter 556 - Chapter 556 Chapter 556 Little Zhuzi_1
Chapter 556: Chapter 556 Little Zhuzi_1 Chapter 556: Chapter 556 Little Zhuzi_1 As a mother, her first consideration was always her children.
Bearing them for ten months before giving birth; so when men err, wives often endure, endure, and only finally resort to divorce when they can’t bear it anymore.
In that era, divorces were few and far between. Unfamiliar glances, the pointing and whispering of others, all these were too much for some, who even chose suicide.
She had it tough back then precisely because she was a woman, and carving out her own path in business was harder and fraught with more difficulties than it was for men.
But in the end, she made it through.
“Xiaomen’s house is just ahead.”
Xiaomen is still living in the old house. Zhang Jiang, her elder brother, constructed a new house when he got married.
“The old house…” Yun Hao said with a hint of disgust. “Why did my parents agree for Xiaomen to marry into the Zhang family?”
“Yes, it’s an old house,” Meng Yunhan said somewhat wearily.
“Little Zhuzi, Little Zhuzi.” Meng Yunhan called out for him at the doorway.
Little Zhuzi was playing in the yard with his brother and sister. Hearing his name being called, he ran outside.
“Auntie, auntie…” Little Zhuzi was really excited to see Meng Yunhan.
Meng Yunhan pat Little Zhuzi’s head. “This is your uncle…”
“Uncle…” Little Zhuzi obediently called Yun Hao.
Seeing how thin Little Zhuzi had become, Meng Yunhan felt a pang in her heart. They hadn’t seen each other for just over a year, how could he have lost so much weight?
Were things really that tough for Xiaomen and her family?
“Brother…brother…”
Two soft voices called out.
Upon hearing his sister’s call, Little Zhuzi immediately said to Meng Yunhan and Yun Hao, “Auntie, uncle, please sit inside, sit inside.”
Seeing how mature Little Zhuzi was at just six years of age, like a little adult, the children in poor families were forced to take on responsibilities at such a young age.
It was a little heart-wrenching.
“Here…” Meng Yunhan took out some pastries and gave one to each of them. She gave the leftovers to Little Zhuzi. “Keep these inside the room. We’ll take you all to your grandma’s house.”
Compared to Huzi, who was only half a year older, the twins appeared significantly smaller.
With something to eat in their hands, the two children nibbled while stealing glances at Meng Yunhan and Yun Hao.
“How old are they?”
Meng Yunhan thought for a moment and answered, “They should be a year and a half old.”
“So small.” Yun Hao commented. Compared to their strapping cousin Huzi, even together, these two probably weighed the same as Huzi.
“Little Zhuzi, close the door, we’re going to grandma’s.”
Little Zhuzi nodded, closed the room door and watched as his aunt and uncle cleaned up his little brother and sister, picked them up and locked the door.
“Auntie, where’s Huzi?” Little Zhuzi hadn’t forgotten about Huzi.
“He’s at your grandma’s. We’ll get to see him when we get there,” said Meng Yunhan.
Looking down at the little girl in her arms, Meng Yunhan said, “Niuniu, I’m your aunt…” Her sparse and yellowish hair indicated that she was malnourished. Her eyes were large, but her face lacked baby fat. She was a tiny little thing.
“Brother…” Little Niuniu reached out to her brother.
“Niuniu, auntie has some yummy food, do you want to eat it?”
Upon hearing about food, Little Niuniu just stared at Meng Yunhan.
Meng Yunhan noticed Yun Hao’s hold was scaring the little boy. He was so startled he didn’t dare to speak or look around.
“Little Huzi, since your parents are out working all day, it’s just you taking care of your brother and sister at home?”
