Transmigrated as My Aunt in the 70s

"Mama, just give it a try. You don’t have to worry about anything else; just make sure you’re not always catering to Daddy’s will like before. What’s most important is that you keep the money in the house safe and don’t let Daddy get his hands on it. Otherwise, he’ll steal the money and sneak off again, and who knows how long he’ll be out there fooling around before returning?"

Jianguo was ardently trying to persuade her. He genuinely hoped that his father could successfully reform. Every child longs for a great father, and Jianguo was no exception. Although he was completely disillusioned with Shou Jizu, he’d be over the moon if Jizu could become like his uncles.

"Alright, I’ll listen to you all. It’s just a matter of whether your father can really change," Tian Manlan responded, not holding much hope but still harboring a sliver of expectation, wishing that a miracle would descend from heaven and fundamentally transform Jizu.

The children’s faces revealed satisfactory smiles. As long as Tian Manlan was willing to cooperate, that was fine. Jianguo thought of a problem and showed a troubled expression, "But we can’t stay at home every day to supervise Daddy’s work, can we? We’ll have to leave this afternoon, and Mama surely won’t be able to control him."

Tian Manlan smiled awkwardly on the side. She knew her own personality; she surely wouldn’t be able to handle Jizu.

Weiguo, who had been silent up until now, suddenly spoke up, "I can supervise. Big Brother and Sisi, you guys can go back today, and I’ll stay at home to keep an eye on Daddy’s work."

That seemed like a good idea, but Weiguo was too young. If he stayed at home alone, what would happen if the village kids bullied him again? Jianguo was hesitant. He truly didn’t feel comfortable leaving his younger brother behind. Tian Sisi was a bit worried too. She didn’t trust that Tian Manlan and her husband could protect Weiguo.

"Don’t worry. Shou Liguo wouldn’t dare bully me anymore. I’ve gotten much stronger now. Even if I can’t beat him, I can run away. Grandpa has taught me all this, I won’t suffer any loss," Weiguo assured confidently, thumping his chest.
