C28 What Is Within One's Capabilities

However, ever since Zhi had confided his feelings to Yao Shu that day, she more or less felt guilty towards her children.

After all, they no longer had a father by their side, and they no longer had a father's love. However, she had been busy doing business for the past few days, causing them to lose a mother's love.

Zhi and Si were both very sensible kids. Although they were very reluctant to see their mother leave, they knew that their mother went out to do business and earn money to support them. Thus, they would never be like other children who refused to leave.

Yao Shu thought about it a lot when she was alone …

… ….

In a flash, winter arrived, and soon, the Spring Festival.

In the past two months, the rouge business had slowly gotten back on track, and Yao Shu had gained some revenue from it.

In addition, with Mrs. County Magistrate's introduction, her carved rouge quickly sold for two boxes.

Yao Shu felt that since the beginning of the business, she had lost three children. She told the shopkeeper to stop the rouge and tell the customers that it was only beginning of spring.

On the other hand, she bought some New Year goods and returned to Yao Family Village, preparing to spend the New Year with her child.

Zhi and Si were very happy to see that their mother had stopped leaving. They didn't want to go out and play either, so they circled around her.

This led Yao Shu to walk around the village with the three treasures in her arms, followed by two small tails.

On this day, the weather was just right.

Yao Shu waited for the sun to rise before taking a few children out for a walk.

The mother and son duo chatted as they made their way to the road, when they suddenly heard someone exclaiming not too far away.

"Shu, it's so cold, why are you carrying your child out?"

Next door, Aunt Hu was carrying some New Year's goods as she got off the oxcart at the village entrance.

Yao Shu weighed the three treasures in her hand and smiled at Aunt Hu, "Three treasures like to go out, so just wear it thicker. Aunt Hu just came back from shopping for New Year's? "Why didn't elder sister-in-law Hu follow?"

Aunt Hu's family was one of the few households in Yao Family Village with a different surname.

She, daughter-in-law, had just given birth to a child this year. She and Yao Shu had a lot to talk about, so they got to know each other better.

The Hu Family had just gotten their grandson, and the Fu Family was very happy. Naturally, they had to celebrate this new year as well. It's the new year, and everyone has to clean up the house, both inside and outside. Your big brother Hu and your sister-in-law are so busy with their children that they don't even have the time to accompany me to town … "

While the two of them were talking, Zhi and Si, one on each side, went up to help Aunt Hu share the New Year's gift. They even called out "Grandma Hu, Grandma Hu", making Aunt Hu happy.

She tried rejecting them for a long time, but she still couldn't convince the two children. In the end, Zhi picked up a string of firecrackers while Si held onto the word 'blessings' and 'couplet'.

Aunt Hu relaxed a lot and sighed with emotion, "Look at your child, how sensible he is! The other big mud monkeys in the village, not to mention helping the adults, even if we don't cause trouble, we still have to thank them! "

Yao Shu, on the other hand, wasn't like the other parents, where a child has to be modest even when being praised. Instead, she listened to Aunt Hu's words and said to the two children, "Great Treasure Erbao has done well! "We're all big kids now, and in the future, we'll act like this and help you share some of the responsibilities we have …"

The two children felt that they had done the right thing after being praised. They straightened their backs.

As Yao Shu finished her sentence, Si looked up in puzzlement. "Mother, what do you mean, 'what can be done'?"

Aunt Hu had a smile on her face. She subconsciously wanted to hear Yao Shu's explanation for her youngest daughter, but Yao Shu didn't answer in a hurry. Instead, she asked Si, "Erbao, think about it. Can you guess what it means?"

These days, Yao Shu would let them think first if they didn't understand. Zhi and Si were already used to it.

Hearing Yao Shu's words, the little girl fell into deep thought.

Seeing that she really couldn't think of anything, Zhi also got anxious on the side. He secretly put on an appearance of carrying things that was very strenuous and kept reminding his sister.
