Gu Chaoyan maintained a strict demeanor as she addressed the children.
“As for us, we’ll handle our responsibilities and make necessary purchases. However, once we return home, each of you must focus on your individual tasks. Tian Jiu, be prepared to study diligently and excel in your exams. Danxia and Dandong, as girls, formal studies may not be your focus, but you can learn to read and write from Tian Jiu. This way, you can delve into books and broaden your knowledge. Additionally, manage your individual tasks at home, understood?” Gu Chaoyan questioned.
The three children nodded, displaying obedience and seemingly internalizing Gu Chaoyan’s instructions.
Considering they were just children, Gu Chaoyan felt she could guide them as she saw fit.
However, the situation was different with Tian Qi, a member of the Tian Family and older than her. Gu Chaoyan refrained from using the same authoritative tone with him, but she wished him well.
“Brother Tian Qi, good luck!” she expressed.
“Okay,” Tian Qi responded with a genuine smile.
Soon, the restaurant’s dishes were served, featuring a lavish spread of fish and meat. Such a feast was a rarity for the North Village residents.
Despite their limited exposure to such meals, the children maintained proper manners. They sat obediently, eating slowly without any squabbles or snatching.
Observing their well-behaved behavior, Gu Chaoyan found herself in a good mood. She believed that these children had promising futures, ones that could flourish if guided in the right direction. To her, the efforts she put into their education felt worthwhile.
After lunch…
Tian Qi wanted to bring back the unfinished food. His parents had never eaten such good food, so he could try it.
Just as Tian Qi was conflicted about how to say it,
Gu Chaoyan had already asked the waiter to prepare two more servings, one for Ms. Wang at home and one for the Tian Family.
Tian Qi’s initial dilemma had completely dissipated, replaced by a touched smile on his face.
Sister Danqiu had been consistently exceptional in taking care of their family. Her care manifested in subtle details—no explicit explanations or emphasis, just a comfortable and touching presence.
Regardless of his future endeavors, Tian Qi silently pledged to do something for the Yan family.
However, he maintained a stoic expression, concealing his emotions.
As the restaurant preparations concluded, Gu Chaoyan gathered their belongings, readying them for the journey home. The sun was on the brink of setting, and they aimed to return before darkness fell, avoiding potential dangers during nighttime travel.
They arrived home before nightfall.
Gu Chaoyan allocated a portion of the Tian Family’s share to Tian Qi before taking her leave.
Ms. Wang awaited their return, overjoyed upon seeing them.
“I’m glad you’re back.”
“Now that you’re back, and everything is going well, Mother, have some food first. I have something important to tell you,” Gu Chaoyan said with a smile.
With everything now on the right track, some plans needed to be made for the future. Gu Chaoyan ensured that once she left, the Yan family would continue to function smoothly.
Ms. Wang, eager to share her thoughts, decided to express herself first. Despite her daughter having already prepared a meal, Ms. Wang began eating.
Gu Chaoyan, meanwhile, engaged with the children.
After about 15 minutes, Ms. Wang finished her meal, prompting Gu Chaoyan to gather everyone for a discussion.
