In the past, Third Aunt did not like her very much. Why was she looking at her now with eyes full of heartache?

“You child, in the future, you must tell your family when you are wronged outside.”

​ 

Third Aunt looked at the child in front of her. Although her son had been punished because of Emily, in her opinion, it was her stupid child who deserved it.

In the past, she had thought that Emily came to the Shen family with ulterior motives. Now, the more she looked at this child, the more her heart ached.

When Shen Nan entered the house, he saw that Second Aunt and his mother seemed to have changed into different people. They were continuously caring for Emily.

Forget about Second Aunt. She had always been a kind and gentle person.

However, he was the clearest about his mother. She was not a person with any kind heart. He remembered that when he said that Emily came to the Shen family with a purpose, his mother had always agreed with him. What was the situation now?

What Shen Nan did not know was that after he left, Shen Yan had told his family about what the old village chief had told him.

Women were always emotional. After hearing about Emily’s experience, it had awakened the maternal instincts of Second Aunt and Third Aunt. They felt that Emily, this child, was really had it too difficult and pitiful.

When they thought about how this child had returned to the village and was scolded by the villagers as an ingrate because of a small matter, and that no one had come out to help her, their hearts ached even more.

Emily was only a seven-year-old child, yet she had to face such verbal violence.

In such an environment, it was really not easy for Emily’s character to not grow crooked. It could be seen that this child’s character was good.

“Yes, in the future, if you are bullied, just tell your Fourth Brother. I’ll get your Fourth Brother to help you,” Second Aunt said unwillingly.

Emily’s eyes immediately turned red.

“Good child, don’t cry. In the future, the Shen family will be your home. No one can chase you away.”

Old Lady Shen saw that the child Emily was about to cry again, so she quickly comforted her.

There were too few girls in their big family. It was not easy for one of them to come, and she was still so obedient. Old Lady Shen also liked Emily more and more.

Especially when she heard Shen Yan say how much Shen Yu had changed because of Emily, Old Lady Shen was even more fond of this child.

One had to know that in this family, Shen Yu was the one who she could not rest assured of.

Now, Shen Yu was willing to communicate with others. This was all thanks to Emily.

“Grandma, I promised to bring Millie to fly a kite tomorrow. I even told Millie that I’m very good at flying kites.”

Shen Nan hurriedly walked in front of Old Lady Shen to take credit.

Old Lady Shen nodded with a face full of relief.

“Go, bring Millie to have fun. Don’t let Millie get hurt.”

Shen Nan looked at Old Lady Shen carefully and said, “So, Grandma, can you go and tell Grandpa that I’ve already called Fifth Brother and Millie back? I also know that I was wrong. Tell Grandpa not to be angry.”

When Third Aunt heard her son’s words, she glared at Shen Nan unhappily.

“You stupid thing. That’s all you’ve got. Millie and Fifth Brother were driven away by you. You went to invite them back and made a meritorious deed?”

“You’re really my biological mother.”

Shen Nan sighed. As expected, the criticism from his biological mother was the most hurtful.

Shen Yu was unhappy at the side. After returning to the old house, everyone surrounded Emily. He could not get close to Emily even if he wanted to.

Shen Yu walked to Emily’s side and pulled her upstairs.

“Go upstairs and rest,” Shen Yu said coldly. He did not care about the expressions of the people in the living room. He just did not want so many people surrounding Emily.

He was even more unwilling. He did not want Emily to ignore him because of other people.

“What’s going on with Xiao Yu?”

Third Aunt looked at Shen Yu and Emily’s back with a puzzled look, and a trace of disbelief flashed in her eyes.

She should be overthinking it. Shen Yu was only a ten-year-old child, and Millie was still young.

Shen Nan walked in front of third aunt and whispered, “Mom, do you also think that my Fifth Brother is very strange?”

The three women in the living room focused their gazes on Shen Nan, wanting to continue listening to Shen Nan’s words.

“Let me tell you, when I went to Fifth Brother’s apartment, Fifth Brother’s apartment, as you know, was not open to anyone. But he didn’t want me to wake Millie up, so he actually let me in.”
