From Chapter 246 onwards, she's a daughter of the Xie family and will never be beaten again.

Huang Meiling carefully came out of the room, afraid of disturbing the children's sleep: "Seeing these two little guys instantly makes me feel less tired. Since I returned to work at the base, whenever I feel tired, thinking of the two little guys makes all my fatigue disappear. Even the most boring and tedious tasks become more enjoyable."

She chose to stand in that position so that millions of children could stand tall and countless future generations could enjoy peace and prosperity.

Xie Zhiyan washed the fruit downstairs and said in a low voice, "Why are you all gathered upstairs? Why aren't you sitting on the sofa?"

Huang Meiling looked helpless: "I told you he's a bit of a simpleton, and only Yingying doesn't mind. The children are still asleep, so let's go downstairs and talk first, so as not to wake them up."

Shu Ying carefully retreated from the room and saw the dim light in the corridor illuminating the blurry faces of the two people. Song Zhaodi's eyes were filled with love for the child.

She truly treated the two children as her own, and sincerely hoped that they would be healthy and safe.

Huang Meiling's eyes shone with undisguised kindness; as people age, their gentleness always attracts more children.

She was unaware of Xie Zhiyan and Shu Ying's relationship at first, and only hoped that they could live a good life together.

With both a grandson and a granddaughter now, Huang Meiling was so happy she didn't know what to say.

A wave of tenderness washed over Shu Ying. She sighed inwardly, thankful that she had found Xie Zhiyan earlier in this life.

Not only did they avoid the previous tragedy, but they also unexpectedly found the Xie family's real daughter.

The children can grow up safely and healthily, and they will have more family members who truly love them.

Thinking of the tragedy of her previous life, Shu Ying couldn't help but feel sorrowful.

The child died in her arms, and even now she often dreams of Yueyue's cold body.

The little one was curled up, and she couldn't give her anything. Even with all her medical knowledge, her poverty prevented her from providing the best medical environment for her child.

Conditions in the countryside are limited, and her child was comforting her even on his deathbed. She was filled with grief and indignation, yet felt helpless.

Whenever she thought of this, Shu Ying felt even more grateful to Song Zhaodi.

She closed the door and walked side by side with her: "After my sister came, the two children's meals have obviously improved a lot. I don't have much life experience, otherwise it would have been very difficult to take care of the two little ones. You have been taking care of everything at home by yourself. You have worked so hard during this time. Now that I know you are also a part of this family, I always feel guilty. I shouldn't have let you work so hard."

She has already suffered a lot in the mountains, and it's really unfair that she's mistaken for a nanny when she returns home.

She should have realized something when she first noticed the resemblance between Song Zhaodi and Xie Zhiyan.

Song Zhaodi waved her hands repeatedly: "You must not think like that. Life is unpredictable. No one knows what will happen tomorrow. Besides, you and Qingqing have both paid me wages, so it is only right that I thank you. Moreover, these jobs are not hard work for me. They are just about moving my hands and don't even require much effort."

Back in the countryside, she had done countless jobs that were dirtier and more tiring than this, but she received neither wages nor respect.

Over time, even she herself came to believe that he was born to do these kinds of manual labor.

It was Shu Ying and Li Qingqing who made her realize that people from all walks of life deserve respect.

"Besides, you've also contributed a lot to this family. You've always been helping me out. Yueyue and Yangyang are already in school, so there's basically nothing for me to worry about. As for Qingqing, I don't need to put in any effort at all. You've given me this opportunity."

Yueyue and Yangyang are both very sensible children. During this time, Shuying has been teaching them to wash their own clothes, so Song Zhaodi's job is even simpler.

“I know you’ve always been worried about me getting tired, and you always rush to work with me whenever you have time. Even though I get paid, you genuinely treat me like family. I have eyes, I know how good you are to me, so why would I nitpick?”

Human hearts are made of flesh and blood. Shu Ying doesn't owe her anything. It's only natural for her to take someone else's wages and do her job conscientiously.

Furthermore, the children are easy to take care of; Yueyue and Yangyang are past the age where they need to be coaxed to sleep.

Occasionally, when Shuying is busy, she goes to the school to pick up and drop off her children. The two little ones behave well at school, and even the teachers praise them highly.

The three of them went downstairs one after another. Shu Ying turned around and looked at her: "I knew you would think that way, but you put a lot of thought into making different dishes every day. Besides, you even subsidize the cost of the food yourself. Although you don't say it, I know it all too well."

Growing up in a privileged family, Shu Ying has always been extremely picky about food.

She still retains her old eating habits, but in front of everyone, she has to be more restrained.

Song Zhaodi never interfered with her habits; she would study and research whatever Shuying ate.

In short, the finished product looks unique and tastes good.

Song Zhaodi's smile deepened. The group sat on the sofa, and Xie Zhiyan closed the door to the room, completely isolating them from the outside world. The family could finally talk privately in peace.

"These were all things I did willingly. When I first went to the countryside, I liked to think about food in my spare time. But I didn't know who to share the things I painstakingly researched with. So over time, I could only make simple meals."

In the countryside, ingredients are limited, and everything requires coupons. In addition, work points are also needed. She can't afford to spend too much on ingredients, so she can only make the most of the wild vegetables in the countryside.

Despite this, she still gets beaten for wasting so much time in the kitchen.

"Things are much better now than before. I not only have a loving family, but the only thing that takes up my brain every day is what to eat tomorrow. Seeing my two children eating healthily and heartily makes me feel content."

Actually, this wasn't something that required much thought; Song Zhaodi preferred to call it happiness.

No need to worry about food and drink, no need to worry about being beaten in the next second, and no need to worry about whether you will see the sun rise tomorrow.

Huang Meiling looked pleased. Shu Ying and Song Zhaodi had a good relationship; the two had been like sisters during their time together.

Song Zhaodi treated the two children as her own.

“Last time your father and I came back in a hurry, we didn’t have time to properly understand the situation at home, so we took it upon ourselves to invite that Ding Rumei over. I never expected it would cause such a big problem later.”
