After An Xuyuan left on his bicycle, Shi Qiwan finally sat on the ground and cried. She felt deep sadness and utter disappointment toward her family. She couldn't understand what she had done wrong to be treated this way by them.
Seeing her mother like this, Liu Fuyan hugged her and said, "Mother, it's not your fault. It's them who can't appreciate your filial piety."
The children felt sad when they saw her crying. Though they were too young to understand the complexities of the adult world, they could still feel her pain. Anyone would feel heartbroken if their own family treated them this way.
Since no one was in the mood to work, Dong Li sighed and said, "Let's stop working and go fishing today."
The moment they heard his words, the children cheered. Even Shi Qiwan managed a small smile and nodded.
While they were cleaning up their tools, Liu Fuyan walked to him and said, "Thank you, Brother Ah Li."
