FSC [QT] Chapter 81.2

She still remembered that when Baowa and Zhuangwa were four years old. The Eldest Daughter-in-law made a pot of cabbage-stuffed buns, so she took a few to the Second Daughter-in-law’s family and happened to see the Second Daughter-in-law and the two children eating lunch.

That day, Ye Wu fried two eggs. According to Third Grandma Xu, such good things should be left for the children to eat, and the adults should just be patient and let it go.

Third Grandma Xu herself did this. As long as there were good things, she would leave them to her husband, son, and grandchildren. She was never willing to eat and wear good things.

Because in her inherent concept, parents should take care of their children. In the current situation of material scarcity, parents should be patient and give good things to their children.

However, Third Grandma Xu unexpectedly discovered that Ye Wu did not do so.

She picked up eggs quite frequently. In the end, most of the scrambled eggs went into Ye Wu’s stomach, and a small part went into Baowa and Zhuangwa’s stomachs.

Of course, this was also related to the fact that the two children had small appetites.

Third Grandma Xu felt that Ye Wu could just fry one egg and leave the other egg for another day. If she was greedy, she could just eat one or two bites to satisfy her craving.

Eggs were so hard to come by now, so shouldn’t she give them to the children first?

This was how Ye Wu explained it at that time.

Parents always gave the best things to their children and then told them that they didn’t like or didn’t want to eat, or that they couldn’t eat because of them.

The consequences of such an education method were not necessarily good.

For example, the former could easily make children really think that their parents didn’t like to eat good things. When they are old in the future, don’t expect the children to give the parents good things.

The latter situation was even more complicated.

The best possibility was that the parent’s behavior touched the child, but in addition to being touched, every time the parent gave in would make the child feel guilty. They would think that it was because of their existence that their parents could not enjoy better things.

The other result was worse. They would get used to it and try to take their parents’ sacrifice as a matter of course. One day, their parents would find that the relationship between parent-children was no longer about the parent giving in, but that the children thought that the parent was unworthy.

Third Grandma Xu San still didn’t quite understand what Ye Wu explained.

She only understood what Ye Wu meant, that when they always left the best things for the children, then the children might not do the same as them when they grew up and might even ask for things naturally.

But Third Grandma Xu San felt that it didn’t matter. As parents, weren’t they living for their children?

Even though she didn’t understand, Third Grandma Xu San didn’t dare to interfere too much with the way her daughter-in-law disciplined her grandchildren. After all, the second son’s family had a special situation.

If the eldest son or the third son’s family did the same, she might have intervened, but the second son was dead, and it was already difficult for his wife to stay at home.

Third Grandma Xu didn’t want to argue with her about such things.

But as time went on, Third Grandma Xu gradually discovered the benefits of her daughter-in-law’s education.

No family was well-off these days, and because of that, every family had children who were greedy. This included the children in the eldest son’s family, who also had the habit of snatching and guarding food.

In the past, Third Grandma Xu and her family didn’t care about it.

When the family ate meat occasionally, most of the time it was given to the children. Only Grandpa Kuang and Kuang Aiguo, the main laborers, could have a bite or two.

Third Grandma Xu and her daughter-in-law Fan Fang basically wouldn’t pick up their chopsticks. At most, they would eat a few bites of vegetables stewed with the meat.

But, Baowa and Zhuangwa were different. The two children never ate alone.

During the Chinese New Year’s dinner, Third Grandma Xu was used to sharing one of the chicken legs with Baowa and Zhuangwa because they had no father at a young age and were more pitiful than other grandchildren.

Whenever they were given chicken legs, Baowa and Zhuangwa would shred the meat from the chicken legs and give some to their mother and some to their grandparents. Of course, they would not forget to share with their best cousins.

Often after sharing, they would only have one or two chicken legs shreds left. But, they didn’t mind and ate their own portions with a smile.
