After Old Yang left, there wasn't much change at home.
Now the three children can go out and play by themselves, and Shang Zhenkun would occasionally check on them. The feeling they got was that the family trusted them.
This actually made them more self-disciplined. It was an unexpected benefit.
Because of the long period of having fancy meals, on the fourth day, the family's meal was just the usual fare, thin pancakes wrapped with bean sprouts.
The children didn't mind as long as they were full; after all, this was still refined grain.
The couple stayed on the kang and talked, "Do you think we've spoiled the kids too much? Nowadays, people only have two meals a day, and it's coarse grain; we have three, and every meal is refined grain with meat."
Jiang Xinyu was a bit conflicted. She was worried about raising the children with a sense of superiority or an extravagant habit.
"Wife, why do we earn money?"
"To make life better."
